Chapter 186 The Elderly's Uprising: You with AIDS, You Must Get Out of Our Neighborhood

The Su Family had been extremely cautious when moving into this neighborhood, terrified of being discovered. Yet, no matter how hard they tried, they never imagined they would be found out in the end. Thinking of this, Su Qiaoer felt like she was about to explode.

They had wanted to find a relatively quiet place to live for a while, but they never expected that such a peaceful life would be shattered so soon.

Just as Su Qiaoer was pondering these things, the sound of the door opening suddenly came from the entrance. It was her mother.

"Su Qiaoer, something has happened."

Hearing this, Su Qiaoer took a deep breath. She knew what her mother had come to tell her, but for this matter, Su Qiaoer had no better solution.

Especially now that their home address had been made public. Thinking of this, Su Qiaoer only felt a headache. However, what Su Qiaoer did not know was that the public exposure was only the first step; next, she would learn what true humiliation felt like.

In another apartment in the same building as Su Qiaoer, a person around 60 years old who looked like someone not to be trifled with, frowned deeply.

"Su Qiaoer? Is that the person with HIV? How can such a person be in our neighborhood? No, I must contact our property management and get this family kicked out."

HIV itself is an infectious disease that makes people pale at the mere mention of it. Although many people know that this disease only has three modes of transmission, everyone still feels a bit of fear when they hear about it.

"Will that work?"

"Will the property management listen to us?"

The woman nodded.

"Of course. If that doesn't work, we'll contact others to go to the property management together. Why should we let such a person live in our neighborhood? What if this person goes wild, puts their blood on a needle, and infects others in the neighborhood? What then?"

This person had likely watched too much television; in reality, even if that happened, it wouldn't be transmissible. Hearing this, the man nodded.

"That works too."

"Then let's go contact the others."

One person going to property management certainly wouldn't have much effect, but if several people went together, then the property management would have to give it some serious thought.

Soon, several elderly men and women arrived at the neighborhood property management office. When they saw these people coming, the staff inside felt a tightening in their chests. In every neighborhood, there are always a few people who are extremely difficult to deal with. They have no real ability, yet they love to boss everyone around, telling the property management to do this and that. The key issue is that you cannot refuse, because if you do, they will make your life miserable. These people were exactly those types in this neighborhood.

Therefore, the staff felt a headache when they saw these people. But since they still had to collect property management fees from them, they had no choice but to bite the bullet and deal with them.

"Uncles and aunts, is there something you need here?"

The staff looked at them, their tone filled with curiosity.

"What are you property management people paid for? Why did you let an HIV-positive patient move into our neighborhood? Do you not care about our safety at all?"

"That's right. I have a grandson at home. What if she infects my grandson with HIV?"

"Exactly, exactly. You're just taking money and not doing your jobs."

Hearing this, the staff sighed. They had just seen the related trending topics, but the key issue was that the tenant had moved in through the proper, legitimate channels. How could they refuse? Now, the matter had been exposed, and it was obvious these elderly people were prepared to force Su Qiaoer to move out.

"Elders, according to our country's laws, there is no rule stating that someone with HIV cannot live in a neighborhood. Furthermore, there are only a few ways HIV is transmitted; it's not as terrifying as you all imagine. If she actually did something like that, she would face legal sanctions, wouldn't she?"

The staff said helplessly. According to current domestic regulations, it was impossible to force someone to leave based on such grounds. Hearing this, the faces of these people turned ugly.

"What do you mean?"

"Does something like that actually have to happen before we can make her get out?"

When one of the older women spoke, her tone was filled with impatience. Nowadays, many young people really dislike buying houses in neighborhoods with many elderly people because there are simply too many troublesome issues.

"Uncles and aunts, that's not what I mean. It's just that they moved in following the proper procedures. You... sigh, how about... you talk to them yourselves? If they are willing, then let them move out."

The property management naturally didn't want to get involved, so they told them to resolve it internally. In fact, anyone who has lived in a neighborhood knows that most property management companies are just trash that only knows how to collect money and not do any work. If you expect them to do anything, it's not quite as hard as climbing to heaven, but it's pretty close.

"Then what are we paying you for?"

"But ma'am, according to the law and our property management regulations, we really cannot force them to move. How about this: if it doesn't work, you can call the police. We really have no other way."

No matter how they tried to reason with them, it was useless. The staff simply gave up. Since you're so capable, you can go solve this trouble yourselves. Anyway, they weren't going to consider it anymore. Hearing this, the elderly group looked at each other.

"Fine, with that attitude, don't expect to collect any property management fees from us either."

Leaving this behind, the group turned and left. Watching their retreating figures, the property management staff sighed.

"Boss, this... what about next month's property management fees?"

"Pfft, those people—I've figured them out. Even if you solved every problem they raised, when it comes time to pay the management fees, they would still make excuses, thinking that giving us even one yuan is a loss. So, just let them solve this matter themselves. If they don't pay the fees when the time comes, don't worry, I have ways to deal with them."

The leader of the property management office spoke with disdain. These people were just full of trouble and disgusting. In any case, the property management had already made it very clear: just let them handle it themselves, and if that doesn't work, call the police. It had nothing to do with the property management.

"The boss still has the best methods."

"What methods? I'm just out of options. Everything in our neighborhood is great, except for these people. It's disgusting."

On the other side, Su Qiaoer still didn't know that she had been targeted by a few people in the neighborhood. Now, her family was sitting on the sofa at home, looking at the news and comments online, their faces filled with gravity.

The current situation completely exceeded their imagination. They were very clear that they had to find a way to resolve this, but with their current strength, what could they do? They could only watch as the public opinion grew larger and larger.

"Su Qiaoer, what do you think we should do?"

Hearing this, Su Qiaoer sighed.

"What to do? There's nothing we can do."

"I'm thinking, should we leave Shanghai?"

"There are too many different kinds of issues here. Let's go to a small city, buy a house, and live out the rest of our lives."

Su Qiaoer no longer wanted to struggle; she just wanted to muddle through. Hearing this, the Su Parents looked at each other.

"But... go, where should we go?"

Father Su was already struggling to speak clearly at this moment. Hearing this, Su Qiaoer thought for a moment and then shook her head.

This country is vast and rich, with many cities, which left Su Qiaoer unsure of where they should go right now.

"Dad, if that doesn't work, let's go to a coastal city. The environment there is good, and the housing prices aren't particularly expensive. By then, we'll still have several storefronts in Shanghai and the dividends from the Su Group. We can live very well in that kind of small city."

Su Qiaoer voiced her thoughts. Although the city hadn't been decided yet, Su Qiaoer already wanted to do this. This is also why many people leave big cities and return to small counties—because the cost of living in big cities is simply too high.

Take Shanghai, for example: a house can easily cost seventy or eighty thousand per square meter. But if you were to change to other cities, perhaps ten or twenty thousand would be enough to buy the best house in the local area. Therefore, many people have let out their frustrations because of this and left big cities.

"Alright... then, when the time comes... we, will think about it."

As he spoke, drool ran down Father Su's chin. Seeing this scene, the mother reached out and quickly wiped her husband's mouth. Looking at her husband like this, the mother felt terrible inside.

After all, the former Father Su was handsome, refined, and easygoing. The difference between him and the current Father Su was truly too great. All of this was due to the targeting by the Zheng Group. Thinking of this, the mother's eyes turned a little red.

If it weren't for the Zheng family and all that bullshit from the Zheng Group, how could the Su Family have ended up like this?

Just as the family was talking there, a rapid knocking sound suddenly came from the door. When they heard this knocking, the whole family frowned.

They hadn't been here long, so naturally, they didn't know anyone here. But they didn't expect someone to come pounding on the door today. Thinking of this, the family's hearts skipped a beat. Could it be that they had come because of the things online?

Thinking of this, Su Qiaoer took a deep breath, feeling a bit nervous.

"Mom and Dad, you sit here. I'll go open the door and see what's going on."

Hearing this, the mother nodded.

"Su Qiaoer, be careful."

"It's fine, Mom. Who would dare touch me now?"

When Su Qiaoer spoke, her tone was filled with self-mockery. She had HIV; I'm afraid no one in this world would want to touch her unless they also wanted to be infected with HIV.

After saying this, Su Qiaoer went to the door and opened it.

A dozen or so elderly men and women.

And these people were coming on aggressively; they looked like they were not to be trifled with.
