Chapter 448 Sounds Pretty Honest
When Duan Rao said this, Du Hexuan couldn't help but shiver.
It was one thing to be determined to confess one's true feelings to one's sister, but it was another thing for her to find out and force one to betray the truth!
Du Hexuan, who was frightened, decided to take the initiative to change the subject and let his sister forget about it for the time being.
"Ahem, you said you are this child's uncle, his biological uncle?"
"Yes, I am indeed Zhao Zhao's biological uncle. Her mother is my biological sister with the same father and mother, and she is the eldest daughter of my Ji family."
Ji Weifeng lives up to his reputation as a sister-con. When he mentioned his sister, his expression suddenly became visibly softer.
"Since you are my uncle, why did Zhao Zhao seem... not very familiar with you when you just met?"
Ji Weifeng's expression froze slightly. He looked down at his niece in his arms, thinking about how the two men in front of him had protected his niece over the past two days, and how they had protected his niece from those human traffickers today.
After hesitating for a moment, he answered truthfully: "Because we haven't seen each other for a while."
It turned out that ever since Ke Zhaozhao's mother died of illness four years ago, Ji Weifeng had disliked Ke Zhaozhao's father, his nominal brother-in-law. He felt that it was because he did not take good care of his sister that caused her to die young. At that time, Ji Weifeng even had the idea of competing with Ke's father for the custody of Ke Zhaozhao and bringing the orphan of his sister directly back to the Ji family to raise her.
At that time, it was naturally impossible for Mr. Ke to agree to this request which would make him lose face, so the two families ended up parting on bad terms.
But considering that the child was still in his hands, no matter how dissatisfied Ji Weifeng was with him, he had to treat him in a lukewarm way. The cooperation between the two companies was maintained until a year ago...
"A year ago, when I was out on business, I suddenly received news that the beast was planning to remarry. I rushed back overnight and once again asked him to transfer Zhao Zhao's custody to me so that I could take Zhao Zhao away from the Ke family. In the end, not only did he not agree, he also took away my right as his uncle to visit Zhao Zhao!"
It's easy to understand what Mr. Ke was thinking. He had just married a new wife, and she brought a burden with her. Then the younger brother of his deceased wife came to take his deceased wife's child away. If this got out, how would people talk about him? Where would he save face? The company's reputation would definitely be affected.
Therefore, for various considerations, he would not agree to Ji Weifeng's request, and would even do everything he could to prevent the two from meeting and prevent the possibility of Ke Zhaozhao being taken away.
"I was so angry that I broke off relations with him and severed all cooperation between our two families. But he is Zhao Zhao's biological father and Zhao Zhao's natural guardian after my sister passed away. No matter how much pressure I put on him, I couldn't change that."
Ji Weifeng had thought about using some extraordinary means at the time, and even thought about whether the child could belong to him if someone just died, but he was stopped by Grandpa Ji in the end.
The Ji family is used to abiding by the law and knows that there are some things they can do, but some things they must never touch.
Du Anrao: “…” He sounds quite upright, so why did he take risks for Xi Yanjia in the later period and do so many things on the edge of the bottom line?
Was he really cursed by the heroine's halo and forced to become love-brained?
Ji Weifeng failed to seize the custody of Zhao Zhao and fled abroad in anger, but he did not ignore his niece. After all, Mr. Ke was a bastard. He married a new wife and had a new child. It was obvious that he would not be good to Zhao Zhao, the child of his deceased wife.
Therefore, before going abroad, Ji Weifeng spent a large sum of money to bribe a maid from the Ke family to help take care of the child, and asked her to report to him regularly about his niece's situation in the Ke family.
Once he found out that Mr. Ke and the stepmother were harsh on the child, he would come back with evidence and fight with Mr. Ke for custody.
"But I never thought that the bitch took my money and then was bribed by the bitch who came into the Ke family later. Not only did she make money from both ends, she also sent me some photos of Zhao Zhao having fun, proving that she was living a good life in the Ke family."
Ji Weifeng gnashed his teeth with anger when he said this. If the two children had not been on the show, and the child brought in by the stepmother had not inadvertently shouted out about the harsh treatment his niece had received in the Ke family, he would probably still have been kept in the dark, thinking that the child had been living well in the Ke family.
If we get any news about the child again, I'm afraid it will be the sad news that the child has been taken away by human traffickers and his whereabouts are unknown.
Thinking of this, Ji Weifeng could no longer control the anger surging in his heart, and he wished that the scum who was not worthy of being a father and the vicious stepmother would disappear from this world right now.
"It was my fault that I was too careless and naive, causing this child to suffer so much." Ji Weifeng touched his niece's fleshy little face with heartache.
The last time we met, the child was still very lively, and his eyes were full of excitement. It was nothing like now when he would be frightened when seeing strangers, and his eyes looked at people with some timid fear and defensiveness.
"We absolutely cannot let this go. Ke Dian, his wife, and that little bastard in his family, haha, none of them can escape."
Du Hexuan and the others: “…” This visual sense of being ready to turn evil at any time, it really is like the villain in a TV series!
"Are you planning to take advantage of this opportunity to get custody of Zhao Zhao?"
"That bastard Ke Dian is not worthy of being Zhao Zhao's father, nor is he worthy of continuing to raise Zhao Zhao. He doesn't love Zhao Zhao, but there are many people who do. If he still has a little bit of compassion as a father, he shouldn't keep holding on to Zhao Zhao. Even if he doesn't, this time, I will never let Zhao Zhao go back to that cannibalistic home."
Du Anrao turned his head and looked at Du Hexuan, confirming that the noble person who would be met after the disaster in Zhaozhao's face was his uncle in front of him. After thinking about it, he stepped forward, covered the child's ears, and told him everything about the other party's plan.
"Mrs. Ke planned this not only to let Zhao Zhao be taken away by human traffickers, but also to make them desperate and kill Zhao Zhao by using a borrowed knife. In the final analysis, it was just because she was pregnant, so she wanted Zhao Zhao's child, the original wife's child, to make room for her child."
"What did you say?" Ji Weifeng's face changed slightly. Thinking of Duan Rao covering the child's ears, not wanting her to hear these dirty things, he quickly suppressed his anger and asked in a low voice, "Did you...calculate all this?"
It can be seen that Ji Weifeng was not lying when he said that he had watched the content of their previous programs before coming here. He believed most of what Duan Rao said without much struggle.
Duan Rao nodded: "Since she has this idea, she must have sent someone to secretly follow those human traffickers. As long as you find this person and find a way to make him tell the truth, it will be a great help in your fight for the custody of Zhao Zhao."
