Anyway, Xie Li's biological parents are very wealthy, so supporting three more people isn't a big deal. At worst, she'll just be more diligent and take good care of Xie Li, trying not to be a freeloader.

"I'm sorry, I'm afraid I can't agree to that." Xie Sidu refused outright.

Shen Erzhu was stunned, he simply couldn't believe that he dared to refuse.

They raised his daughter for over a decade, and instead of being grateful and offering to take them to live in the Xie family villa, he actually dared to refuse?!

What a heartless bastard!

Why doesn't Lord Lei strike these heartless rich people dead?!

Shen Erzhu gave Wang Cuihua a wink.

Wang Cuihua knelt down with a thud. "Thank you, Mr. Xie, please let me stay and take care of Lili!"

The pitifully small woman was kneeling at his feet; the sight was enough to bring tears to anyone's eyes! A calculating glint flashed in Shen Erzhu's eyes as he secretly turned on his phone's camera, intending to take some photos.

Those reporters and netizens will certainly be happy to uphold justice for them.

A glint flashed in the eyes of Xie Sidu's secretary, who stepped forward and blocked Shen Erzhu's view.

Shen Erzhu glanced at the clueless secretary with displeasure. She was so ignorant. Didn't she know that he was the adoptive father of their young lady?

Xie Sidu stood to the side, not moving an inch.

It wasn't that he didn't want to help Wang Cuihua, but he had just seen her about to be smashed on the head by a cup and bleed profusely, so he reached out and pulled her back. In return, Shen Erzhu mocked him for being a wild man.

"Sister-in-law, for the sake of our reputations, I won't help you up," Xie Sidu said calmly.

Wang Cuihua wiped away her tears, her expression somewhat blank, helpless, and embarrassed.

Seeing this, Shen Erzhu secretly regretted his miscalculation, wishing he hadn't shouted about some wild man.

However, Xie Sidu is really too precious. Wang Cuihua is Xie Li's adoptive mother. She is so weak and pitiful. Can't they help her out?

Is this a way of looking down on them because they're from the countryside?

Rich people are disgusting!

“Mr. Xie, Cuihua is really worried. We have no choice! Look at her like this. Even if she recovers, she'll still need to take good care of herself. If she stays with me, she'll only be able to go hungry and cold and live a hard life…”

Shen Erzhu looked miserable. He tried to squeeze out a few tears, but he couldn't.

"Since you don't want to talk properly, there's no need to continue." Xie Sidu was losing patience.

He had no intention of wasting words with Shen Erzhu. The wound where the sulfuric acid had been splashed was still burning painful, and the bodyguard in the emergency room had no idea what was going on.

He left without giving Chen Erzhu any time to think, and walked straight out the door.

As the person completely disappeared through the doorway, Shen Erzhu panicked.

"Twenty million, I want twenty million!" Shen Erzhu finally couldn't help but reveal his purpose, his eyes filled with undisguised greed.

Xie Sidu's figure reappeared at the door of the ward.

Shen Erzhu breathed a sigh of relief.

This means they're finally willing to sit down and have a proper talk.

The secretary handed a stack of documents to Shen Erzhu. "This is a contract, in duplicate. Mr. Xie will be responsible for treating your and Ms. Wang's illnesses, and will also pay you 20 million yuan as living expenses for Ms. Xie Li over the past ten years. Based on the principle of friendly negotiation, if you two have no objections, please sign and affix your fingerprints, promising that you will never bother Ms. Xie Li again."

Not bothering Xie Li? That won't do!

He was still counting on Xie Li as his cash cow!

"I won't sign! You're going too far! You're robbing us of our father-daughter bond!" In his haste, Shen Erzhu spoke with remarkable fluency.
