"Huaihua, I..."
For a moment, Qin Huairu was speechless, cornered by Xiao Huaihua.
As for Yi Zhonghai and Sha Zhu, there was no need to even mention them.
When Qin Huairu was truly lying on her sickbed waiting to die, the only one willing to stay by her side and take care of her was Xiao Huaihua.
Therefore, no matter how harsh Xiao Huaihua's words were now, Qin Huairu could still absorb some of them.
However, getting Qin Huairu to reconcile with Liu Kai Xuan was absolutely impossible.
"Alright, Huaihua, the one who truly needs to be clear-headed is you!"
"Relying on outsiders is useless. When it comes to life and death, only we can rely on ourselves!"
"This house is now our family's only asset!"
"If the house is gone, Qin Hao and I will be left to sleep on the streets. Is that the situation you want to see?"
Xiao Huaihua retorted, "The key is, this house has already been sold by you!"
"And a contract in black and white has already been signed!"
"If we go back on our word now, we have to return the 3000 yuan to Liu Kai Xuan, every penny."
"Do you think our family can still come up with this 3000 yuan in our current situation?"
Qin Huairu said shamelessly, "In any case, I'm mentally ill!"
"Mentally ill people don't need to be responsible for their actions. If Liu Kai Xuan wants to snatch my house, he'll have to step over my dead body!"
"You..." Xiao Huaihua was so infuriated by Qin Huairu that her mind was blown.
"Mom, what has happened to you? You're simply unreasonable!"
Qin Huairu retorted equally aggressively, "You brat, are you trying to lecture me now?"
"It's not your place, a brat, to teach me a lesson. Get out! I don't want to see you again from now on!"
Xiao Huaihua rebuked sternly, "Qin Huairu, you will pay for your foolish actions!"
"You brat, I..."
Before Qin Huairu could retort further, Xiao Huaihua left without looking back.
At this moment, Qin Huairu vaguely felt a sense of regret.
After all, the only person willing to help her when she was lying on her sickbed waiting to die not long ago was Xiao Huaihua.
Qin Huairu knew that only Xiao Huaihua's filial piety was genuine.
That girl Xiao Dang was unreliable, and Yi Zhonghai and Sha Zhu were out of the question.
Sha Zhu was completely under Qin Jingru's thumb now, only able to speak.
Yi Zhonghai was eagerly hoping she would die soon.
Qin Huairu wanted to go find Xiao Huaihua to comfort her, but as soon as she thought about Xiao Huaihua's stance on the property, Qin Huairu felt extremely angry.
This house was very important to Qin Huairu.
If she lost the house, she would have to live at the mercy of others.
Besides, Liu Kai Xuan hadn't come to "demand" the property yet?
When it came to the Jia family's house, Liu Kai Xuan was indeed not in a hurry.
Liu Kai Xuan had Zhao Feiyan buy this house as a long-term investment, not for immediate occupation.
This long-term investment would take at least ten years to see any real returns.
Now that the property rights were in Liu Kai Xuan's hands, Qin Huairu's attempts to be unreasonable or throw a tantrum were of little use.
The house had already been sold once. It was completely impossible for Qin Huairu to sell this house a second time.
Even if she refused to leave, it wouldn't change the ownership of the house.
Liu Kai Xuan possessed this understanding, but Zhao Feiyan did not.
On the evening Qin Huairu was discharged from the hospital, Zhao Feiyan went to Qin Huairu's house.
Zhao Feiyan was not polite to Qin Huairu and got straight to the point upon meeting her.
"Qin Huairu, this house is now my property!"
"I will not allow anyone to squat in my house. Please leave immediately!"
Since Qin Huairu had already made up her mind to be a deadbeat, she certainly wouldn't be afraid of Zhao Feiyan.
Qin Huairu's response to Zhao Feiyan's scolding was very fierce.
"Zhao Feiyan, you and Liu Kai Xuan are rich and unscrupulous, deliberately driving down the price to cheat me out of my house, and I haven't even sued you yet!"
"Now you have the audacity to come to my door and force us, a mother and her children, to vacate the house for you. Are you even human?"
"Who cheated you out of your house?"
Zhao Feiyan shouted sternly, "I have the contract in black and white right here!"
"The contract is proof that I bought this house from you in a public and legal manner!"
"The property transfer procedures have been completed smoothly. You're still playing hardball here. How can you be so shameless?"
"Even if you, Qin Huairu, are shameless, you should consider your children!"
"If you act like this, your whole family will be labeled as scoundrels in the future, humph!"
"For such a small profit, you've sacrificed your entire family's reputation!"
"Bang Geng has already been ruined by you, and you still think it's not enough, right?"
Qin Huairu was instantly enraged, "Zhao Feiyan, I warn you, don't spout nonsense here!"
"I never said I don't acknowledge this sale agreement!"
"Since it was a contract I, Qin Huairu, signed myself, I will naturally acknowledge it!"
"However, our family hasn't found a new place to settle yet!"
"Therefore, we cannot hand over the house to you temporarily. This is a real difficulty we are facing!"
"The neighbors are all watching. Don't make unreasonable demands here!"
The reason Qin Huairu suddenly changed her tune and admitted the validity of the sales contract was not without reason.
It was because more and more onlookers were gathering, and the sales contract was clearly written in black and white!
Even if Qin Huairu wanted to renege on the deal, with so many people from the neighborhood office witnessing it, how could she deny it?
Moreover, Zhao Feiyan had shifted the focus to Qin Hao, which was Qin Huairu's biggest weakness.
For a deadbeat like Qin Huairu, she had a fatal weakness, and that was her children.
In front of so many people, and in front of her own son.
If Qin Huairu openly tore up the contract and completely broke her word, could her son ever hold his head up in front of people in the future?
The answer to this question was an absolute no.
Bang Geng, years ago, was branded a "Saint of Thieves" for stealing.
This greatly affected Bang Geng's ability to find a job and a wife.
As a result, he eventually embarked on a path of crime and met an untimely end.
If Qin Huairu established herself as a deadbeat in public,
