"Mom!" Zhao Xinxin shouted in a trembling voice, her eyes instantly turned red, tears welling up in them, as if they would burst out in the next second. She walked quickly to the bedside, stretched out her hands without hesitation, and tightly held Zhao Juxiang's slightly rough hands.

"Mom, do you know? You are my only relative in this world! Without you, I really don't know how to go on. You are my courage and motivation to live, and my eternal spiritual support!" Zhao Xinxin burst into tears, tears sliding down her cheeks and dripping onto the two people's clasped hands.

Zhao Juxiang was already in tears. How could she not understand her daughter's feelings? For so many years, the mother and daughter have depended on each other and supported each other. In the past few months, she wanted to end her painful life, but whenever she thought about leaving Zhao Xinxin alone to suffer in this world, she couldn't bear it. So, she endured the torment in her heart and gritted her teeth to persist, just to be with her daughter for one more day, one more day...

Qiao Jingyu, who was standing by, watched this heartbreaking scene with a feeling of pity. She gently walked forward, squatted down, and comforted them softly, "The most difficult times have passed. From now on, the days ahead will only get better and better. You should be happy and stop crying." As she spoke, she reached out and gently wiped away the tears on Zhao Juxiang's face.

Zhao Xinxin listened to Qiao Jingyu's words, nodded vigorously, and quickly wiped her mother's tears with her sleeves, choking and saying, "Mom, Jingyu is right, our hard days are finally over. From now on, our family will become happier and happier. Don't worry, I will work hard, make a lot of money, buy you a big house to live in, let you be happy every day, and live the best life!"

Zhao Juxiang gently reached out her hand and carefully wiped away the tears from Zhao Xinxin's eyes. Deep in her originally gentle eyes, there seemed to be an elusive and complex emotion hidden.

"My Xinxin, you have always been so strong and brave. Mom believes that no matter what difficulties you encounter in the future, you will be able to get through it and will live a happy and fulfilling life. Then mom will be relieved." Zhao Juxiang comforted softly, her voice full of endless love and concern.

Time passed quickly, and in the blink of an eye it was the fourth day here. On this day, the verdict on Zhao Zhiwen was finally settled. Because he had committed such heinous crimes as intentional homicide and molestation of a young girl, and the circumstances were extremely bad, the court sentenced him to death without hesitation and required him to pay appropriate financial compensation to the victim.

With the end of the case, the company run by Zhao Zhiwen also faced the fate of legal auction. After a series of strict procedures, the proceeds from the auction were finally compensated to the partner and Zhao Xinxin in accordance with the regulations. In addition, Zhao Zhiwen's real estate, vehicles and other assets were also legally inherited by Zhao Juxiang and Zhao Xinxin in accordance with the law.

After completing all the relevant formalities, Zhao Xinxin decisively contacted a real estate agency and put the house, which carried so many painful memories, up for sale. She could not live there again, because the things that happened in the past two months were like a terrible nightmare lingering in her mind. There were too many unbearable memories there, and she just wanted to escape as soon as possible.

Now, Zhao Xinxin is eager to go to Jicheng with her mother Zhao Juxiang to start a new chapter in life. The mother and daughter are looking forward to a better life after rebirth, hoping to heal the old wounds there and embrace a hopeful future.

However, it was the hottest summer day, and the heat was unbearable. Seeing that it was almost noon, Zhao Juxiang couldn't help but suggest: "Xinxin, the weather is too hot today, why don't we take a day off and leave tomorrow?" Zhao Xinxin looked at her mother's tired but kind face and nodded happily in agreement. So, they decided to take a day off and leave tomorrow morning.

After lunch, several people went back to their rooms.

Duan Yuchen went to Feng Bo's place. The company had something going on and was holding a video conference.

Qiao Jingyu was half leaning on the bed watching TV. Just when she was about to fall asleep, she heard a bang next door and was suddenly awakened by it.

On Zhao Xinxin's side, she was feeding Zhao Juxiang water when the door was kicked open.

Zhao Zhiqiang walked into the room with an angry face. His footsteps were heavy and powerful, as if every step was filled with deep resentment. The two men following behind him were tall and strong, like two moving hills, bringing a depressing atmosphere to the whole room.

"Hmph! You keep saying you don't want a penny, and I really thought you were so noble! I didn't expect you to have such a plan. Bah! The house obviously belongs to my brother, why do you occupy it all? Don't even think about it. Hand over the property certificate quickly if you know what's good for you, otherwise don't blame me for being rude to you!" Zhao Zhiqiang glared at the two people in front of him viciously and said with gritted teeth.

Zhao Xinxin was shocked when she heard this, but she walked to the bed without hesitation and used her petite body to block Zhao Juxiang, as if to protect the last line of defense. "I won't give it to you, no matter how much you threaten or bribe me! Let's see what you can do to me!" Zhao Xinxin retorted without flinching.

Zhao Zhiqiang saw this, and the corners of his mouth slightly raised, revealing a smile full of irony. "Haha, just the two of you? A man who is no different from dead, and a weak woman who can't even tie a chicken. I can easily get rid of you with just a flick of my finger. Don't refuse a toast and give me the property certificate obediently, so that everyone will be better off and avoid physical pain. I don't know how to control my strength when I start to fight. If I accidentally hurt someone, don't cry and beg for mercy!"

"What do you want to do in broad daylight?" Qiao Jingyu heard the noise and ran over.

Zhao Zhiqiang turned around and saw that it was Qiao Jingyu again. A trace of cruelty flashed across his eyes. "Humph, the nosy person is here. I was really afraid that he would not come. Otherwise, I would have asked my two brothers to come here in vain. Today, I will make sure you know the consequences of offending me."

Zhao Zhiqiang said, looking at the two men beside him, "Take good care of her for me."

The two men looked at each other, smiled evilly, and walked towards the door.

"If you have anything to say, just come to me." Zhao Xinxin was about to walk to the door, but was stopped by Zhao Zhiqiang, "Give me the property certificate of the house, maybe I can consider letting her go."

"Zhao Xinxin, ignore him. I don't believe he dares to do anything in broad daylight, unless he wants to go in and accompany Zhao Zhiwen." Qiao Jingyu looked fearless.

"Do you think I was scared?" Zhao Zhiqiang turned his head and glanced at Qiao Jingyu. "Wait until I'm done with you, then I'll take the property certificate away. There are no cameras here, so who can prove that it was me? Do you think the police station is owned by your family? The police will believe whatever you say?"
