Chapter 395: Chapter 395 Qu Ruorui’s Call

After leaving Daye Village, the car headed towards the city.

The face pressed against the car window now belonged to Yue Xiaohu.

"Wow, the buildings are so tall."

"Sister Xingxing, Sister Qingqing, look, that truck over there is loaded with so much stuff."

Yue Xiaohu felt like a country bumpkin entering the city, feeling that his eyes weren’t enough to take in all the new sights.

The slight sadness he had earlier had quickly dispersed, turning entirely into excitement.

This mood persisted until they entered Zizhu Community, where Yue Xiaohu finally calmed down.

"How come it’s so small..."

The houses in the city, of course, weren’t as big as the villas in Daye Village, and there was no backyard for martial arts practice.

Yue Xiaohu started to worry about how he would practice his skills.

Having not seen her grandson for a long time, Lin Chunju smiled happily, and Yue Xiaohu also called out ’grandma’ as he threw himself into her arms.

This scene of loving grandmother and dutiful grandson was quickly broken by a single sentence from Lin Chunju.

"How did Xiaohu do on his exams this time?"

Yue Xiaohu’s face drooped listlessly, "Not... not so good."

Lin Chunju didn’t scold him too much, recognizing that among children there were those like Xingxing who loved to study, and then there were those like Yue Xiaohu, whose talents in this area hadn’t been awakened.

She simply patted his head and comforted him with a few words, "Your uncle has managed to get you into First Middle School, you’ve got to work hard from now on."

Yue Xiaohu replied gloomily, sensing Sister Xingxing’s intimidating readiness nearby, he couldn’t help but feel that the coming days would be difficult.

Yue Qingqing was sitting by the phone, which was a call from Qu Ruorui.

She had recently visited Linguang City and was now vividly sharing everything she saw and heard along the way with Yue Qingqing.

In passing, she also mentioned the jerk, Qu Gaoxuan.

After returning, Qu Ruorui and Liu Pingxiu heard from neighbors that recently a man had often lingered outside their house.

Sometimes he even brought back a rather aggressive-looking old lady.

They seemed to think that someone was home and intentionally avoided coming out, sometimes frantically knocking on the door and disturbing the peace.

The noisy ruckus had led to quite a few complaints from the neighbors, some of whom had come out to scold them.

The old lady was fierce, her sharp tongue equivalent to that of ten people’s, claiming it was all family matters and telling others to mind their own business.

She was there to take her granddaughter home.

Liu Pingxiu quickly realized what they were up to; clearly, seeing that she was doing well, they now wanted to take the person back.

They probably thought that, no matter what, Qu Ruorui had the Qu Family blood in her veins.

Once they took the granddaughter back home, they believed Liu Pingxiu would have no choice but to fall in line.

Liu Pingxiu, who had been resolute in her divorce, wasn’t one to hesitate or indulge others’ weaknesses.

She immediately sent Qu Ruorui to stay with a close friend for a couple of days, then gathered some good sisters and went to Qu Gaoxuan’s factory to make a protest with gongs and drums.

They publicized how the Qu Family had scorned the idea of a girl child and bullied Liu Pingxiu, and how they were now harassing the ex-wife with the old mother’s help.

Qu Gaoxuan immediately chickened out, hiding inside the factory and not daring to show his face.

The factory boss, already displeased with Qu Gaoxuan, flew into a rage and called a meeting, speaking quite bluntly.

"Either pack up and leave or settle your previous lawsuit cleanly. We can’t let one person affect the entire factory."

If he lost this job, Qu Gaoxuan didn’t know what he could do in the future.

Nowadays, many factories were performing poorly, and the number of laid-off workers was increasing. Qu Gaoxuan didn’t want to become one of them.

Later, he and the old lady no longer dared to look for Liu Pingxiu and Qu Ruorui.

After all, the future benefits were uncertain, but if they continued making a scene, the job he held could be lost in an instant.

Knowing that her friend didn’t have to worry about the deadbeat dad anymore, Yue Qingqing also felt happy for her.

Auntie Liu was still impressive. A woman like her, even if divorced and raising her daughter alone, could still live a very good life.
