Han Yichen had listened enough. He knew that these people were all waiting to gnaw on the bones of his daughter. Just looking at the condition of his daughter, he knew that Han Xuehan had not been living well. Look at how thin she was, and not a single piece of her clothing looked new. It was as if it had been washed again and again until the colour of the clothes started to fade.

Her shoes were torn, and there were several patches on her clothes.

When Han Yichen thought about how he had given the best to his daughters, only for his eldest daughter to suffer in such a manner, he was filled with a kind of rage that he could not explain. In the past, Meng Yunhan comforted him by telling him all sorts of lies. She told him that even if his daughter was married off somewhere far away, she was living the best of her life with all the comforts a woman could have. Was she talking about these comforts? 𝙛𝒓𝒆𝙚𝒘𝒆𝓫𝙣𝓸𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝒄𝒐𝓶

"Dad," said Han Xuehan with an aggrieved tone. Even though she was in her thirties, she looked like a little girl who had finally received the support that she had been craving for.

"Go pack your bags," that was all Han Yichen said. He then turned to look at the bastard who dared to beat his precious little girl. He rolled up his sleeves and said, "You like to beat women; why don’t you come here and fight, man to man? Let’s see how you like that, huh?"

Qiao Tingyan was kicked in the abdomen by Han Yichen; even though Han Yichen was not a strong man, at the moment, he was filled with rage at finding his daughter being bullied. How could he not be angry? How could his hits not hurt?

Qiao Tingyan groaned in pain.

When Old Madam Qiao saw that her son was getting beaten up by both the daughter and the father, she turned panicked. She immediately rushed forward to save her son from Han Yichen. She was worried that the man would really beat her son up. Her son might be strong, but he couldn’t take a beating from someone for no reason. She said loudly, "Why are you beating my son up for no reason? What wrong did he commit? He was just beating his wife. Since when did it become a sin?"

Old Madam Qiao did not think that there was anything wrong with what she did or what her son did. If anything, it was Han Yichen who was making a fuss for no reason.

When Han Ruochen heard her shameless words, she was so angry that for a second, she wanted to hit the old woman. She laughed in anger and harshly said, "You old woman, are you still living in the old times? Since when did beating a married woman to death become justified? I am telling you, domestic violence is a crime; no matter how you try to defend him, your son is a criminal, and so are you!"

Old Madam Qiao never expected Han Ruochen to intervene in their conversation. She glared at her and said, "Why are you butting in? As a young woman, do you not understand something so simple that you shouldn’t talk in between when two adults are talking?" She had never respected or cared about girls. Thus, when she saw Han Ruochen speaking up, she could not help but get angry. Who was this woman, and who did she think she was to call her son a criminal?

Old Madam Qiao had a strong mommy filter, and she did not like Han Ruochen calling her son a criminal. She glared at her and said to her, "You’d better control that mouth of yours, or else I will tear it off."

In the face of Old Madam Qiao’s anger, Han Ruochen was as cool as a clam. She blinked her eyes and sneered coldly. "Why don’t you try it? Let’s see if you can tear my mouth off or if I break your arm first." The only reason Han Ruochen was staying quiet was that she did not want anyone to say that she was bullying an old woman, but if Old Madam Qiao made a move on her, then she would definitely make her regret it.

Old Madam Qiao had seen Han Ruochen kicking her son; she naturally would not dare to make a move on her. This woman could even send a man flying, what about her? She was just an old woman with weak bones; if she were kicked down by Han Ruochen, she was worried that she would end up staying in the hospital for more than three months

When Han Ruochen saw the terrified look on the old woman’s face, she clicked her tongue. She never expected this woman’s guts to be this small. She was a typical bully who only knew how to bully the weak.

"Anyway, you cannot take her away!" Old Madam Qiao decided to act like a shrew and go all out. Her eyes flickered evasively as she said, "She is our daughter-in-law! You cannot just take her away as you want."

Han Yichen listened to her going crazy and did not lose his temper at all. He calmly curled his lips and said in a low voice, "When did I sell my daughter off to you? Do you really think you can do whatever you want just because you married her? She might be your daughter-in-law, but she is my daughter first. And I say that she will not stay in your house another second. If you dare to stop me, then I will call the police and tell them that you are illegally holding people in your house. I am telling you, confining a person is a serious crime."

His daughter was not their slave; why would she be trapped in this hellhole just because Old Madam Qiao refused to let her go? Worst comes to worst, he would drag the entire family to the police station and sue them. Who was scared of whom?
