The atmosphere instantly turned icy cold as Qiu Tong confronted them with a murderous expression.

Song Yan narrowed his eyes and walked over to Qiu Tong with a smile.

He held the muzzle of his gun and looked at the children.

Song Yan’s voice was lazy and slow, but it carried a hint of warning. “As the biological father of the children, you have no right to chase me away. I can obtain custody and visitation rights of the children through legal means…”

“Simply put, if I go to the courts, there’s a good chance you won’t be able to stay with the children.”

Song Yan frowned, his expression somewhere between sympathy and sarcasm. He deliberately made a tsk-tsk sound as he shook his head and slowly squatted down.

“Do you want to have a happy, complete family or do you want to leave her?”

Song Yan threw the option to the children as he pointed in Qiu Tong’s direction.

Little Yu clutched the corner of Qiu Tong’s clothes tightly in a rather dignified but helpless manner. Song Yan gently ruffled the top of her head and said in a low voice, “Perhaps you can persuade Mommy.”

“I remember. You used to like me a lot.”

Song Yan raised his eyebrows, but Little Yu was so frightened that her face turned pale.

Qiu Xingyuan shielded her behind him and stared at Song Yan warily. He said coldly, “Please leave our home.”

“We will never leave Mommy!”

“Even if this goes to court, I am able to think independently for myself. The judge will take my opinion into consideration and not listen to you!”

Qiu Xingyuan put on a stubborn expression, his eyes flickering with determination.

This was the first time he had expressed his reliance and protectiveness towards Qiu Tong. Qiu Xingqiao and Little Yu looked at him with widened eyes.

Qiu Tong paused when she heard this. She was very touched. She also understood that Jin Yang and Song Yan had special status. It would be extremely disadvantageous for her to bring this matter to court.

But given the current situation, she absolutely could not show any fear or retreat.

No one could take the children away from her!

Qiu Tong’s gaze was sharp. She pointed the gun at the floor beside Song Yan and suddenly pulled the trigger. With a loud bang, the air was filled with the smell of gunpowder. There was now a hole in the ground and white smoke swirled out of the gun barrel.

Song Yan looked at her in disbelief. He stood up stiffly and frowned. “As long as we are together, we can resolve all problems. I will help you take care of the children. Isn’t that the best choice?”

“Why are you still hesitating?”

Qiu Tong glanced at Jin Yang and Song Yan. “I won’t forgive you for plotting to get close to me and deceiving the children.”

“If you still refuse to leave, my next shot might hit you!”

Qiu Tong reloaded the gun and raised it.

Qiu Xingyuan held Little Yu’s hand tightly. He and Qiu Xingqiao stood at Qiu Tong’s side as protectors.

Qiu Xingqiao pointed at Jin Yang and Song Yan angrily. He whispered into Little Yu’s ear, “Sister, you have to remember this.”

“No man who looks like them is good! They’re all baddies! In the future, when you see them, you have to avoid them. Don’t be fooled!”

Little Yu looked at Jin Yang in confusion. Her lips moved as she wanted to defend her uncle, but she sensed that now was not the right time. She could only nod obediently.

“Brother, don’t worry. I’ll remember!”

Jin Yang and Song Yan looked at each other in exasperation.

Qiu Tong felt comfort when she looked down at Qiu Xingyuan. She suddenly remembered the officer who had tried to kidnap the children outside the hospital. All her doubts seemed to have been cleared up as she stared at Song Yan suspiciously…

Song Yan and the officer appeared beside her and the children at almost the same time.

Could all the dangers they encountered be related to Song Yan?

Qiu Tong’s entire body tensed up as she glared at Song Yan. She questioned coldly, “Did you have anything to do with those people waiting outside the hospital, waiting for an opportunity to kidnap the children? Did you arrange it?”

Song Yan was a little stunned, but he could sense the change in Qiu Tong’s attitude.

The children were Qiu Tong’s lifeline and weakness.

Song Yan did not answer directly. He raised his hand and tugged at the collar of his shirt, his fingertips playing with his messy hair. “As long as we are together, any problem can be solved and you will be safe.”

Qiu Tong’s dark eyes were filled with anger as she gritted her teeth.

Jin Yang noticed the change in her mood and hurriedly apologized, “I’ll explain to you another day.”

He strode over to Song Yan and gripped his shoulders tightly, dragging him out of the villa.

Thump!

Qiu Tong closed the door to the villa and threw the gun to the ground.

The children surrounded her with worried expressions. Qiu Tong looked up and opened her arms to hug them.

“Don’t be afraid, Mommy won’t let anyone snatch you away!”

This promise made Qiu Xingyu cry loudly. Qiu Xingyuan also took the initiative to hold Qiu Tong’s finger with reddened eyes.

Qiu Xingqiao clenched his small fists and said fiercely, “If they dare to come knocking on our door again, I’ll kick them all out!”

Qiu Tong burst out laughing at his actions and planted a gentle kiss on each child’s face.

“Let go of me!”

Song Yan shook off Jin Yang’s hand and stared at him in disdain. “Don’t keep looking at me like that. Qiu Tong and the children are mine.”

“Don’t tell me the president wants to have the bad reputation of committing incest?”
