Thank you, Thiago!
Yeah, I know return true is not clever. This is a demo code in my Qt text. Someone commented me the differences between Qt4 and Qt5 if return true. I guess the same reason as  you mentioned in last mail. This might because the different processes between the two versions which the documents didn't point out. I just wonder if this is right or I missed some docs.
Thank you anyway!

Returning true for all events is a stupid idea. You're blocking ALL events, 
including those that Qt needs working in order to make your functionality 
work.
 
So my conclusion is that you blocked some event that was a precursor to the 
event sent to the label.
