168: Chapter 168 Don't Think I Don't Hit Women

"She is your second aunt!"

Even though she had been warned and knew a little about it beforehand, Zhu Qingxi was still incredibly surprised.

If no one had told her, she really wouldn't have guessed that was Qin Chuan's second aunt; she would have thought it was an enemy.

Qin Chuan waved his hand and said, "Let's go, ignore her. I'll take you to see the house where I grew up."

Since they treat you this way, there is no need to be overly eager to please them, nor is there any need to pay them any mind.

Originally, Qin Chuan had thought that if he returned this time and his second uncle's family had a decent attitude, he would let go of past grievances. It seems he was being too wishful; they clearly had no intention of letting things go.

This was a red-brick tiled house. After his foster parents passed away, Qin Chuan had specifically locked the doors and windows and had even taken the time to clean and tidy it up.

Even though he hadn't been back for two or three years, the inside of the house should have been relatively tidy, with at most just some dust.

Who would have thought it wasn't like that at all!

First of all, the lock on the front door was gone; it had clearly been pried open by force, and it opened with a gentle push.

The situation inside was even more infuriating!

It was completely empty inside; every piece of decent furniture had been cleared out, and there wasn't a single appliance left.

For example, the television, which Qin Chuan had specifically covered with a cloth, was not only gone, but the TV cabinet was missing too.

Back then, his foster parents' financial situation was decent; many of the furniture pieces were newly made, but they passed away in a car accident just a few months later.

After looking around the room, Qin Chuan's expression turned somewhat ugly.

There was no need to guess; everything had been taken by his second uncle's family.

No one else would have the audacity or be shameless enough to pry open a lock and just walk into someone else's house to move their things.

Zhu Qingxi was very angry.

This is bullying. They moved someone else's belongings without even saying a word.

"Brother Chuan, the inside of the house shouldn't have looked like this originally, right?"

"Yeah." Qin Chuan nodded and said, "Our family was relatively well-off in the village. The furniture was custom-made by paying a high price for quality materials, and we had quite a few appliances—a TV, a washing machine, a refrigerator—all of which are now gone."

Zhu Qingxi suggested, "Then let's call the police."

Qin Chuan nodded. The things must have been taken by his second uncle's family. He had to call the police to teach them a lesson.

They had only just looked around the house for a few minutes when there was movement outside. Qin Chuan's second uncle, Qin Jianshe, and his cousins, Qin Hai and Qin He, walked in together.

Qin Jianshe said indifferently, "Qin Chuan, you're back. It's perfect; there are some things I need to discuss with you."

The other party's attitude was very cold, so Qin Chuan didn't offer any warmth either, maintaining a cold expression himself.

"Go ahead, what is it?"

Qin Jianshe said, "My older brother and sister-in-law are gone, and all they left behind is this house. Our family is planning to build a new house, and we intend to demolish both of our old houses. I'm just letting you know now."

Heh.

I've returned, and only now do you come to tell me.

Did you ask for my permission?

You didn't even ask for my opinion, just came over to notify me like this.

Noticing that Qin Chuan's expression was quite cold, Qin Hai felt a bit uncomfortable. "What kind of attitude is that? My dad is talking to you."

Qin Chuan laughed in anger, "Then you tell me, what kind of attitude should I have?"

Qin Jianshe waved his hand, signaling Qin Hai not to speak; it would be better for him, as the elder, to handle it.

"Qin Chuan, there are some village customs and rules you might not be very clear about, so let me explain them to you, so you don't have any hard feelings or think what I'm doing is wrong."

"My older brother had no children. According to the rules, his inheritance should be inherited by our family. Therefore, this house, including some of the farmland, belongs entirely to us."

Qin Chuan said, "Who says my dad had no children? Who am I? Am I not his son?!"

Qin Hai jumped out again, saying sternly, "Don't you have any self-awareness? You're just his adopted son, not his biological son. We are the ones with the blood connection to him."

Qin Chuan said, "Watch your mouth!"

"What did you say? Who are you telling to watch their mouth!"

Qin Hai seemed to think he had the upper hand over Qin Chuan. Being very arrogant, he slapped out, wanting to give Qin Chuan a hard slap across the face to teach him a lesson.

Heh.

He thought too much.

With his pathetic combat skills, how could he possibly hit Qin Chuan? His wrist was caught in mid-air, and then, Qin Chuan backhanded him, slapping him hard across the face.

"Slap!"

The slap was very loud. Qin Chuan used only a tiny bit of force, but instantly, Qin Hai's cheek swelled up, and there was blood in his mouth.

Seeing his son get hit, Qin Jianshe jumped up and scolded sternly, "Qin Chuan, how could you lay a hand on someone!"

Qin Chuan sneered, "Are you blind? Didn't you see that he was the one who tried to hit me first? Am I not allowed to fight back and just let him hit me?"

"You've rebelled! How dare you hit my son!"

Qin Jianshe wasn't one to reason. Hitting his son was unacceptable, but hitting Qin Chuan was a matter of course. He grabbed a wooden stick from the ground and swung it towards Qin Chuan's head.

Qin He was not slow either, kicking towards Qin Chuan.

The father and his two sons all attacked together.

Zhu Qingxi was not panicked at all. She had long since stepped back a few paces, and before the conflict fully erupted, she had taken out her Apple phone and turned on the camera to record.

The iPhone 4 hadn't been out for long, but Zhu Qingxi had already gotten one. She often used it to film things, so she was very skilled at it.

The three father and sons were fighting against Qin Chuan alone.

They thought that by relying on their numbers, they could take advantage of the situation, give Qin Chuan a good beating, and then seize the house, farmland, and other property.

They thought too much; things did not develop as they had imagined.

In less than ten seconds.

Qin Jianshe and his two sons were lying on the ground, all of them groaning in pain.

"Ouch, it hurts so much."

"My hand is broken, my hand is broken..."

"He's hitting people! A younger generation is hitting an elder! Help, someone..."

The one shouting the loudest was Qin Jianshe. At this moment, he was acting like an elder, claiming a younger generation was hitting an elder, yet when they were seizing someone else's house, they wouldn't acknowledge Qin Chuan's status at all.

Shameless!

He had seen shameless people before, but never one this shameless.

Qin Jianshe's wife, who was Qin Chuan's second aunt—that cold and hostile rural woman, Zhao Ping—immediately trotted over.

Originally, she hadn't intended to come over, just wanting to watch the show from the sidelines, thinking that surely Qin Jianshe and his two sons could handle one Qin Chuan.

Who would have thought that things didn't seem right.

When she ran over and took a look, her husband and two sons were all lying on the ground groaning in pain, while Qin Chuan was completely fine, not even his clothes were ruffled; he was clean and neat.

After being stunned for a moment, Zhao Ping's shrewish nature manifested. Screaming and yelling, she lunged at Qin Chuan's face, trying to claw him.

Qin Chuan dodged a couple of times and warned, "Don't think I won't hit a woman. If you scratch me again, I'll hit you just the same."

Zhao Ping ignored the warning completely and escalated her efforts, scratching towards Qin Chuan's face.

Damn it, I have no choice but to kick you.

Qin Chuan kicked Zhao Ping, knocking her to the ground. Now, the whole family of four was neatly lying on the ground.

Perhaps because the commotion was a bit loud, especially with the shrew Zhao Ping screaming and yelling, it attracted the attention of the neighbors, and soon quite a few people came to watch the spectacle.
