From Broken Family to Life Winner: A Reborn Mother's Journey

”Shut up! Who wants to marry you!”

Qin Shanshan was starting to truly hate Su Dan. She swung her hand and slapped him across the face, then drove him out.

Su Dan tried to go back in, but a nurse stopped him.

”The expectant mother is emotionally unstable. It’s best not to agitate her, for the sake of her health.”

Hearing this, Su Dan didn’t dare pressure Qin Shanshan anymore. He could only wait anxiously outside the hospital room and start fantasizing about life after his son was born.

While he was lost in his daydreams, he had no idea that inside the room, Qin Shanshan was desperately thinking about getting rid of the baby.

Qin Shanshan was filled with hate. She couldn’t accept it, and she especially didn’t want to give birth to Su Dan’s son.

Marrying Su Dan because of a child would mean her entire life was truly ruined. She couldn’t let some disgusting little bastard destroy her future.

After accepting this reality, Qin Shanshan calmed down and made a decision almost instantly.

’I’m going to abort the baby! I don’t want it!’

While Su Dan was downstairs buying her food, Qin Shanshan found a doctor and told them she didn’t want the baby.

”Doctor, I don’t want this baby. Help me abort it. Please prescribe me the medication.”

The doctor frowned. ”Didn’t the baby’s father say he was going to take you home to get married?”

”I don’t want it. Just give me the medicine.”

Qin Shanshan insisted.

The doctor’s brow furrowed. The next day, after a thorough examination, they shook their head.

”Your physical condition isn’t good enough. You can’t have an abortion. If you do, you could hemorrhage, which might damage your body and leave you unable to get pregnant for the rest of your life.”

”What? Why can other people do it, but I can’t?”

Qin Shanshan was devastated and found it hard to believe.

No woman wants to be infertile. There’s a world of difference between not wanting to have a child and not being able to have one.

The doctor looked at Qin Shanshan, speechless. ”Just look at your own condition.”

The medicine Qin Shanshan had taken before was already harmful. Getting pregnant after taking something like that meant the pregnancy was unstable from the start.

If she had properly recuperated back then, she might have been fine. But afterward, forget recuperating—Qin Shanshan hadn’t even had a single decent meal.

These past few days, she had been mentally and physically exhausted, constantly pushing both her body and mind to their limits.

She hadn’t eaten a proper meal or gotten a good night’s sleep. It was a miracle she’d held on this long.

”Let me put it this way: in your condition, forget taking medication to abort the baby. If you don’t rest properly, you’ll miscarry on your own.”

”And you’d better be prepared for the consequences when that happens.”

The doctor’s words left Qin Shanshan completely stunned and terrified.

Qin Shanshan didn’t dare mention not wanting the baby again. She was afraid of damaging her body and knew she now had to focus on resting and recuperating to avoid any complications.

’Since I can’t abort the baby, marrying Su Dan is the only path left.’

Su Dan was unaware of Qin Shanshan’s plan to get rid of the baby. He was wholeheartedly set on marrying her.

Helpless, Qin Shanshan could only accept Su Dan once again.

What choice did she have? She was already pregnant and couldn’t get an abortion. The only path left was to marry Su Dan.

It was the only way out.

When Su Dan saw Qin Shanshan finally give in and soften her attitude, he was overjoyed.

He was happy, but Qin Shanshan was left with nothing but despair.

After the despair, only hatred remained deep in Qin Shanshan’s heart.

She was filled with hate. She hated Tang Yuanxiao, but she hated Mrs. Tang even more.

Although she had no choice but to marry Su Dan, she had no intention of letting Mrs. Tang and Tang Yuanxiao off the hook so easily.

After being discharged from the hospital, Qin Shanshan did one thing immediately—she sued Mrs. Tang.

She had always despised Su Li, but she had to admit she’d learned a few things from her.

For example, how to use the law to protect her rights. And how to sue people.

Mrs. Tang had never told Qin Shanshan the specifics of what she’d done, but someone like Qin Shanshan? She knew everything.

She was the one who drove Mrs. Tang everywhere. How could she not know?

Although she had deliberately avoided Mrs. Tang at the time to avoid suspicion, or pretended not to know what Mrs. Tang was up to.

But in reality, she knew everything. It was only Mrs. Tang who smugly thought she had hidden it all.

Qin Shanshan had always been shrewd and was careful to leave herself a way out in everything she did.

She had secretly saved some of the drug that Mrs. Tang bought.

Then, she found the channel Mrs. Tang used to buy the drug, as well as a witness.

With a witness and physical evidence in hand, Qin Shanshan filed a lawsuit against Mrs. Tang.

Even if she had to marry Su Dan, she was determined to sue Mrs. Tang.

No one expected this move from Qin Shanshan. It threw the Tang Family into chaos once again.

When Tang Yuanxiao received the court summons and learned that his mother was being sued, he was too exhausted to say anything.

When Mrs. Tang found out, she nearly went insane.

After she had thrown a rock at Su Li, Tang Yuanxiao had threatened to send her back to prison if she did anything like that again. Mrs. Tang had been scared to death then. Now that some time had passed and she had finally calmed down, disaster struck from out of the blue.

Mrs. Tang was already on medical parole. For her to do something like this during that period and get sued by Qin Shanshan...

Qin Shanshan reframed the situation, painting herself as a completely innocent victim who had lost her virginity and gotten pregnant because of Mrs. Tang’s scheming—a truly sympathetic figure.

The court quickly launched an investigation. Since Mrs. Tang had committed this crime while on medical parole, her offense was considered even more severe.

A menace like Mrs. Tang would normally have several years added to her sentence.

However, given her condition, the prison wouldn’t take her.

Mrs. Tang’s sentence was extended, but she remained on medical parole and only had to pay a fine.

Qin Shanshan had always been smart, and her ambitions were big. In the end, she accepted a settlement from the Tang Family for her damages.

The compensation amount was finally set at four thousand.

In this day and age, four thousand was no small sum.

Some people would never touch that much money in their entire lives.

Qin Shanshan was reasonably satisfied with this amount.

She was satisfied, but Mrs. Tang was about to lose her mind.

”Four thousand! Four thousand! Why doesn’t she take a look in the mirror? Is she worth four thousand?”

”She just got slept with once, and we have to pay four thousand? Is there any justice in this world?!”

Mrs. Tang hadn’t even fully processed the pleasant surprise of not having to go to prison before the four-thousand-yuan fine knocked her dizzy.

Four thousand yuan—this was worse than killing her.

For her, giving Qin Shanshan four thousand yuan was a sentence of death by a thousand cuts.

”We can’t pay four thousand! I’d rather give her my old life than pay her four thousand! I’d rather go to prison! Where are we going to find four thousand yuan?”

Mrs. Tang was truly going insane.

She had felt regret before, regretted it to death, but never had she regretted it as much as she did in this moment.

The Tang Family came from a poor background. In the past, they toiled in the fields all year, faces to the dirt and backs to the sky, and still couldn’t earn even a few hundred.

Things only started to get better later because of the money Tang Yuanxiao sent home. She was always reluctant to spend money, constantly saving every bit she could.

But even that savings didn’t amount to this much.

Besides, they had already spent so much money on her—for hiring doctors and so on. There wasn’t much left now.

Now they were being asked to produce four thousand. Where were they supposed to get it?

”We don’t have the money! We don’t have that much! Just drag me off to prison, or I’ll give her my life in return!”

Mrs. Tang created a huge uproar.

The same woman who had been terrified and constantly protesting that she didn’t want to go back to prison was now, for the first time, demanding to be locked up just to avoid paying the four thousand yuan.

But that wasn’t for her to decide.
