Chapter 510: It’s My Freedom
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
s.h.i.+ Jin raised her eyebrows indifferently. “It’s my freedom whether I want to take the s.h.i.+ family’s things or not. As for you guys… One of you killed the child in your own mother’s womb, while the other tried to extort me and wanted me to be killed by the internet. Whether I report this to the police or pursue this matter is not only my freedom, but also the basic respect of a law-abiding citizen!”
Old Master s.h.i.+’s expression was solemn. s.h.i.+ Qing agreed with s.h.i.+ Jin’s actions and was extremely disappointed with the mother and daughter.
It was over, it was over. Everything was over.
Yu Xiuhua and s.h.i.+ Xuexin sat on the ground in a daze.
What awaited them would be severe punishment from the law.

Fu Xiuyuan left with s.h.i.+ Jin.
Although s.h.i.+ Xuexin and her daughter had already been severely punished, he knew that s.h.i.+ Jin would definitely not feel good about what had happened to the s.h.i.+ family.
He grabbed s.h.i.+ Jin’s fingers.
s.h.i.+ Jin’s slightly cold fingertips felt his warmth and the bleakness in her heart was soothed.
Tonight, he’d been standing beside her as her protector. This gave her the greatest peace of mind.
With him by her side, she could be completely fearless.
After this incident, s.h.i.+ Xuexin and Yuxiu Hua were completely drowned in the netizens’ saliva.
The mother and daughter fought each other and even tried to use the netizens to deal with s.h.i.+ Jin. They suffered the most powerful backlash.
Everyone jointly requested severe punishments for the daughter’s act of harming her mother, and the mother daughter pair’s collective scam of s.h.i.+ Jin, lest others follow suit.

Shen residence.
“So this property is for me?” Shen Xinghe looked at the property contract in disbelief.
Old Master s.h.i.+ nodded. “It’s for you.”
Even though he had heard about it from s.h.i.+ Jin, Shen Xinghe still felt like he was in a dream.
He looked at Old Master s.h.i.+ and then at s.h.i.+ Jin.
s.h.i.+ Jin did not say anything, indicating for him to make his own choice.
Mother Shen sat at the side, looking terrified.
She was an honest person. All these years, secretly raising her son was the most daring thing she had ever done. She was afraid that one day, the s.h.i.+ family would come and s.n.a.t.c.h her son away.
She shook her head. “Erm, Shen Xinghe is not s.h.i.+ Qing’s son. You guys are mistaken.”
Elder s.h.i.+ felt even more guilty. “I’m sorry. All these years, I knew of your existence, but I did not step forward to acknowledge your ident.i.ties. I did not let Shen Xinghe receive the education and growth he deserved.”
He was only holding back because he wanted to protect his son and daughter-in-law’s family. In the end, he was only protecting people like Yu Xiuhua.
“He’s really not your son…” Mother Shen said in agitation.
Shen Xinghe picked up the doc.u.ments and tore it apart. “Yes, I am my mother’s son, it has nothing to do with anyone else. I am not a member of the s.h.i.+ family, and I will not take the s.h.i.+ family’s money. You can leave now.”
“Xinghe, you…” Elder s.h.i.+ hesitated.
“Grandpa, let’s go first.” s.h.i.+ Jin helped Old Master s.h.i.+ up.
She had expected this outcome, but how could Old Master s.h.i.+ listen? He would not believe it until he ran into a wall.
Old Master s.h.i.+ had no choice, but to leave first. He stopped halfway. “Xinghe, the s.h.i.+ family welcomes you anytime.”
When they got back to the car, Old Master s.h.i.+ looked a little tired. The past few days had made him look even older.
Thinking of Shen Xinghe, his guilt was obvious.
“Grandpa, give him some time,” s.h.i.+ Jin persuaded him. “He has ambition, isn’t it because he inherited your pride?”
