549 I Am Their Father

“You have to think about the children’s future. If you have to take care of four children on your own, can you provide for them well?” Chen Hu said.

Li Gui said seriously, “I’ve thought it through. I can support these children on my own. Zhang Wei is already a big boy and they can take care of one another. The money I make from selling vegetables and doing other work can cover the children’s expenses.”

“If you can raise four children on your own, then why didn’t you raise Qiao Mei yourself back then?” Chen Hu said mockingly.

Li Gui was rendered speechless. Although she had her own difficulties back then, she should not have left Qiao Mei with the heartless Qiao Zhuang’s family. Even if she had left the young girl at the door of any other family, Qiao Mei’s life would still turn out much better than being left at Qiao Zhuang’s house.

“That’s all in the past. Let’s not talk about it anymore. Uncle Hu, please bring me to see Zhang Qian,” Qiao Mei said.

On Qiao Mei’s account, Chen Hu did not continue talking about what happened back then. He walked in front angrily and ignored both Qiao Mei and Li Gui.

Qiao Mei smiled and said, “Mom, don’t take it to heart. I don’t blame you for what happened back then. I have turned out fine too, right? Don’t take Uncle Hu’s words to heart.”

Li Gui nodded. She was in the wrong in this matter. In the future, she would definitely make it up to Qiao Mei twice as much and treat her well, making sure that she need not suffer anymore.

She would get the four children to treat Qiao Mei well and repay her kindness when they grew up.

As soon as the three of them entered the guarded area, Sister Jiang instantly perked up and crawled towards the cell door with all her might, shouting, “Big brother! Big brother, let me out! I really didn’t do this! Big brother, please be kind!”

Chen Hu asked someone to bring a chair for Qiao Mei. He stood behind Qiao Mei to back her up.

“Sit there obediently! Shut your mouth!” Chen Hu shouted.

Sister Jiang was so frightened that she sat on the ground obediently. Guo Tian quickly helped Sister Jiang to sit on a stone stool at the side and lowered his head in silence.

The moment Zhang Qian saw Qiao Mei, he understood everything. With Qiao Qiang’s influence, it would be easy for him to contact the head of the armed forces department. No wonder the movement of people in the entire county city came under control within such a short period of time.

Zhang Qian propped himself up using the stone stool and said, “I just know it’s you who blocked my way! If not for you, I would have a new family long ago! My Chu Xin would not have left me! It’s all your fault!”

Chen Hu could not help himself from laughing aloud. He did not expect Zhang Qian to be a person who believed in love. No wonder he could be deceived by Chu Xin.

“Your Chu Xin’s name is actually Big Red. She’s a fugitive who specializes in trafficking children and is under police surveillance in various areas. Do you still think that it’s love between the two of you? In fact, you’re just her money-making tool,” Chen Hu said laughingly.

Zhang Qian rushed to the metal door and roared at Chen Hu, “Bastard! You must be lying! She loves me! You’re talking nonsense! She said that she would marry me! She doesn’t want anything, she loves me wholeheartedly! You’re all lying to me!”

Qiao Mei felt that the current Zhang Qian seemed more like a human. At least he was arguing with others for the sake of the person he loved and was not doing some sneaky stuff.

“Whether you believe it or not, you helped her sell Zhang Chao and Zhang Qin. What you did is a crime,” Qiao Mei said calmly.

“Those are my own children! Why can’t I decide where they go! I’m their father and I can sell whoever I want to anyone! What right do you have to arrest me!” Zhang Qian said angrily.

“Do you have the right to call yourself their father! Have you taken care of them for even a day? I won’t argue with you about this. Since you say that you’re their father, then you should be responsible for Zhang Miao,” Qiao Mei said.

Zhang Qian looked at Qiao Mei in confusion. What did this have to do with Zhang Miao? The one he abducted was Zhang Qin.

“What’s wrong with Zhang Miao?” Zhang Qian asked, feeling puzzled.

Qiao Mei took out the test results from her bag and showed them to Zhang Qian. She said slowly, “This is a summary of Zhang Miao’s expenses from staying in the hospital during this period of time. She has broken ribs on both sides from that kick you gave her and is still in a coma. She will need to recuperate for at least half a year. Tell me, don’t you think you have to bear this expense?”

In the neighboring cell, Zhang Cong’s heart skipped a beat when he heard that Zhang Miao had been hospitalized. He had been thinking about Zhang Miao’s injuries and did not expect it to be so serious.
