Jingwen finally made up her mind, realizing that delaying the matter was not a solution. Although she knew Hailin had no ill will towards her son, the worry in her heart was still as heavy as a boulder, and she was afraid that her son would suffer any injustice.
Chuchu's attitude towards Chai Jingwen has become somewhat distant, without the closeness and warmth of the past. When Chai Jingwen wanted to hug her like before, Chuchu gently pushed her away and said lightly: "I can walk by myself."
Chai Jingwen felt embarrassed and guilty. She squatted down and tried to make her tone sound sincere: "Chu Chu, Auntie knows I did something wrong. Can you understand my difficulties? I really didn't mean it."
Chu Chu looked into Chai Jingwen's eyes seriously and nodded. "I understand, Aunt Chai. I know you're doing this for your child. If it were my mother, I believe she would do the same. Besides, you've already told me the truth, so you've pulled back from the brink."
Chai Jingwen felt warm in her heart, and she hugged Chuchu tightly. "Chuchu, Auntie really likes you and is very grateful for your understanding. Although Auntie did something wrong this time, I will try my best to make up for it. The place we are going to today may be dangerous, but Auntie will do her best to protect you."
Chuchu gave a warm smile in return, "Auntie, don't worry. I also know that if I do something wrong, I must have the courage to take responsibility and correct it. So, if there is any danger today, I will do my best to protect you."
Song Yaqing, who was standing by, felt mixed emotions. She knew the danger of this operation, but she couldn't help but warn, "Chu Chu, you must be careful and don't be impulsive. We are all waiting for your safe return."
Chuchu nodded solemnly, patted her chest and assured Song Yaqing: "Mom, don't worry. I will take good care of myself, Aunt Chai and my brother. We will definitely come back safely."
…
Chai Jingwen brought Chuchu with her, and Hai Lin saw it clearly on the surveillance camera.
It's just a child, no one would think too much about it.
Instead, everyone thought that Chai Jingwen came as a burden.
And Chai Jingwen's current state clearly shows that she has succeeded.
The secretary stood in front of Hai Lin and said, "Secretary, Chu Mingfeng's company is just a small one. It's completely irrelevant to us."
…
Hai Lin had already seen Chai Jingwen and Chuchu coming.
Hai Lin stared at the two of them coldly through the surveillance screen, but his heart was calm.
He didn't expect Chai Jingwen to come with a child.
It's just an insignificant child, who would care about it?
Hai Lin gently stroked the documents on the table, as if caressing his prey. His eyes revealed a cunning and confident look, as if everything was under his control.
The others present also didn't take Chu Chu seriously. They were more concerned about Chai Jingwen's movements. Seeing her confident look, everyone thought she had succeeded and successfully obtained the share transfer certificate from Song Yaqing.
The secretary stood in front of Hai Lin and reported the situation respectfully: "Secretary, Chu Mingfeng's small company may not be worth mentioning in our eyes, but to him, it is a very important foundation. However, according to your plan, we only need to apply a little pressure to make him surrender."
Hai Lin nodded and smiled slightly: "Very good, continue to act according to the plan. However, don't forget, my target is not just Chu Mingfeng's small company."
The secretary was startled when he heard this and quickly nodded in agreement. He understood that Hai Lin's ambitions went far beyond this.
We finally met.
Chuchu followed Chai Jingwen and stood at the door of the spacious conference room. What caught her eye was a room full of people, all men. They wore sunglasses and neat suits, exuding an indescribable majesty and coldness.
Among these people, Chuchu recognized Hai Lin at a glance.
Hai Lin was already in his forties, but unlike the average man, he didn't carry a large belly. Instead, he maintained a very lean figure. His eyes were sinister, as unfathomable as the abyss, and his face exuded an undeniable majesty. His every move exuded the aura of a superior, making people afraid to approach him easily.
However, Chuchu felt that Hai Lin was no longer the same Hai Lin. His eyes seemed to have a hint of viciousness and determination, and his smile had become more false and cold. She couldn't help but shudder, and a sense of foreboding welled up in her heart.
She turned to look at Chai Jingwen, and found that she also looked unhappy. The two looked at each other, and they both read worry and uneasiness in each other's eyes. They knew that today's meeting was more than just a simple meeting.
Chai Jingwen patted the file bag lightly and asked directly, "I got the stuff, but where's my son?"
Secretary Sun came over and said, "Ms. Chai, we need to take a look at something."
Chai Jingwen took it out, but did not hand it directly to Secretary Sun. She said boldly, "I must see that my son is unharmed."
Hai Lin smiled and asked, "What do you think I will do to the child?"
"You are different from ordinary people. You are extremely cruel and ruthless. I just don't understand. You have so many industries in your hands. You can even be said to be rich enough to rival a country, but why are you thinking about a small company of Yaqing?" Chai Jingwen became angry as she spoke.
"Go and bring the child here." Hai Lin's eyes shone with danger.
Secretary Sun immediately whispered a few instructions to another person.
In just three minutes, 13-year-old Zhou Rui was brought before everyone. He wore a slightly stained white short-sleeved shirt, but otherwise, he had no visible injuries. Chuchu's eyes swept over him, and she couldn't help but feel moved. Zhou Rui's features did bear some resemblance to Hai Lin's, especially his deep, penetrating eyes, which were exactly the same.
Thinking of this, Chuchu couldn't help but feel a little sad for the late Mayor Zhou. It turned out that he had been cuckolded for so many years and was always kept in the dark.
Chai Jingwen was instantly excited when she saw her son. She quickly walked over to Zhou Rui and nervously checked his body. She asked in a trembling voice, "Ah Rui, are you okay? Mommy is a few days late. Are you hurt?"
However, Zhou Rui's reaction was beyond Chai Jingwen's expectations. He seemed unusually calm, even a little indifferent, and replied calmly, "It's okay. What are you doing here? I haven't had time to tell you that I don't want to leave with you. Dad and I are fine here."
Chai Jingwen was stunned. She couldn't believe her ears, tears welling up in her eyes. "What did you say? What are you talking about? Do you already know?"
Zhou Rui nodded, his expression still calm, with a hint of relief in his voice, "Well, I understand. I saw the paternity test report. You shouldn't have kept it from me."
Chai Jingwen's tears finally burst out. She tried her best to hold back her sobs and explained in a trembling voice, "There are some things that are really hard for me to talk about. It's all my fault that you are so embarrassed..."
