☆, Argument 04-23
Feeling a sense of shared misfortune, Chu Yaofeng developed a protective instinct towards Chengcheng. He angrily berated her, "A woman like you, who only sees money, doesn't deserve to be a parent! Why didn't your parents throw you over a wall when they created you? A heartless, inhuman woman like you shouldn't even exist. You're a waste of air when you're alive, a waste of land when you're dead, and a waste of money even when you're half-dead. Calling you trash is an insult to trash. Let me tell you, Chengcheng is very obedient and sensible in my eyes. It's fine if you don't want him, but I will. I'll not only raise him, but I'll also give him the best material life and cultivate him into the most outstanding business leader. You'll regret it!"
"...Hello, hello?" That bastard, he actually hung up on her. Ughhhhh, Gu Li was furious. She gritted her teeth, almost deforming her phone in her hand. That self-righteous, sharp-tongued man, he better pray that she doesn't find out who he is, otherwise, she will definitely tear him to pieces, no, she will shred him into a million pieces.
Chu Yaofeng hung up the phone, still feeling he hadn't had enough of cursing. He snorted disdainfully, then turned around and looked at Chengcheng, who was sitting up with her eyelids drooping, with a slight surprise. "I woke you up."
Chengcheng shook his head, looked at the phone in his hand and said, "I woke up when I heard Mom's voice."
"Chengcheng, I really feel sorry for you." You have a mother with a bad temper and no heart.
Chengcheng smiled sweetly, "Uncle, you've misunderstood my mom. No one in this world loves me more than her. She does have a bit of a temper, but don't mind it. That's just how she is—sharp-tongued but kind-hearted."
"She loves you?" Chu Yaofeng sneered incredulously, as if he had heard something out of the blue. "She thought I kidnapped you. Do you know what her attitude was?"
Chengcheng nodded, "She will definitely tell you that she is penniless and has no money to ransom you, so you have to figure it out yourself."
"That's right," Chu Yaofeng said through gritted teeth, "With this attitude from her, you still think she loves you?"
Chengcheng nodded without hesitation, nodding vigorously, "She said that to trick the kidnappers into lowering the ransom. All's fair in war. Uncle, you're so stupid, you can't even see that."
Chu Yaofeng was speechless. He was usually so clever, but he had made a foolish mistake in this moment. He was so anxious that he was dumbfounded. However, "What if the kidnappers really think she can't pay and kill you?"
"No way." Chengcheng shrugged nonchalantly. "Kidnappers gain nothing from killing me; at most, they'll just sell me."
"Is there a difference?" Chu Yaofeng broke out in a cold sweat.
"Of course there is. As long as I'm alive, I can always run away."
"..." Chu Yaofeng burst into tears. Was this child abused and maimed? Why did he feel that his thinking was different from that of a normal person?
“Uncle.” Chengcheng’s eyes suddenly darkened, and the smile on his face disappeared. With a melancholy look on his face, he said earnestly, “My mom’s personality wasn’t like this before. She was very gentle, timid, and insecure. She was twisted into the way she is now because she suffered a lot of harm.”
"What kind of harm? Was you abandoned by your daddy?" Hmm, if that's the case, then I can understand. He also...
When the word "Daddy" was mentioned, Chengcheng's eyes flashed with murderous intent. "Yes, that scumbag caused my mom indelible pain. He not only abandoned her, but also tried to murder her. When I find that person, I will definitely take revenge on that man for my mom."
Chu Yaofeng was shocked. He had no idea that the little guy had such a bizarre and complicated background. That woman was truly remarkable. After being so hurt by that man, she was still able to give birth to Chengcheng. It showed how resilient she was. It was something that ordinary people could not do. Even he, Chu Yaofeng, might not have been able to do it.
It seems he really misunderstood her.
Chu Yaofeng glared resentfully at Chengcheng, "Why didn't you say so sooner?" She made him throw a tantrum, and that woman must be cursing him viciously right now.
"Why didn't you ask sooner?" Chengcheng retorted.
Chu Yaofeng: "..."
It has to be said that the mother and son are really alike; they both know how to shirk responsibility.
