Father Shen, Cheng Juan, and Xie Jining sat at different sides of a table.
"Cheng Juan, we're not familiar enough to sit together and chat." Xie Jining said coldly, "Tell me, what's the purpose of inviting me here?"
Seeing Xie Jining so calm, Cheng Juan didn't beat around the bush and took out a suitcase and placed it on the table.
“This is one million.”
Father Shen instantly understood what Cheng Juan meant. Between Cheng Juan and his ex-son-in-law, he would definitely stand on Xie Jining's side without hesitation.
"Cheng Juan, what's wrong with you?"
Cheng Juan said calmly, "This is compensation for Mr. Xie's mental damages."
Xie Jining laughed at himself. He reached out and took the money from the suitcase, then weighed it in his hand.
"One million?"
Xie Jining never thought that one day someone would throw money at him!
"This 1 million is to thank Mr. Xie for his care and dedication to my daughter Xiaochengzi."
Xie Jining's temples were throbbing.
He asked slowly, "Mr. Cheng, is your daughter only worth 1 million?"
"Mr. Xie, if you feel the money is not enough, you can add more."
Cheng Juan's words caused Xie Jining to raise his eyebrows slightly.
"In my heart, little oranges are priceless treasures."
Cheng Juan had long expected that Xie Jining would not agree, and he was indeed in the wrong in this matter.
"I didn't know in advance that Xiao Chengzi was not your daughter."
"That day at the hot spring villa, I just told Shen Bailu that I wanted to tell you about my past with her. Her reaction was very strange at the time, and she even resorted to stabbing me. That day we met in the hospital, and I deliberately tricked Shen Bailu."
Cheng Juan's voice was slow and leisurely.
Can't distinguish any emotions.
"Honestly, I didn't expect Shen Bailu to be so bold as to do such a thing right under your noses. It wasn't until I saw Xiao Chengzi that day that I realized that Xiao Chengzi looked very similar to me. I took advantage of the time when Xiao Chengzi was in the teahouse to do a DNA paternity test. The test showed that Xiao Chengzi is indeed my daughter."
For some reason, Father Shen still believed what Cheng Juan said.
With Cheng Juan's personality, if he had known from the beginning that the little orange born by Shen Bailu was his daughter, he would not have held back until recently when he exploded!
"Mr. Xie, I am Xiao Chengzi's biological father. I have the right to let Xiao Chengzi live with me. Mr. Xie is a respectable man, and he certainly wouldn't want me to file a lawsuit to change the guardian. A private settlement would be a good thing for you and the Xie family!"
Father Shen glanced at Cheng Juan calmly, then glanced at Xie Jining.
After a long while, Father Shen said, "Jining, what do you think about this?"
It's not that Father Shen is on Cheng Juan's side, but the current situation is indeed only suitable for private reconciliation.
If it really came to the point of a lawsuit, the only ones who would be embarrassed would be the Shen family, the Xie family, and these people. As for Shen Bailu, she certainly wouldn't feel ashamed. If she felt ashamed, she wouldn't do such a shameless thing!
"Little Orange is my daughter."
Xie Jining threw the banknotes in his hand at Cheng Juan's face.
"Cheng Juan, I can't possibly hand Xiao Chengzi over to someone like you."
Cheng Juan was also in the wrong on this issue. If he and Xie Jining had swapped places, he would have wanted to kill the other person!
Of course, it is even more impossible to raise a child who nails himself to the "pillar of shame"!
