Chapter 384: 384: Still Want Money?
Huang Youde outright told her to her face, “Weiwei, I never agreed to acknowledge him in the first place. It’s just that you told me I had a son. My daughter is already grown up, and whether I have a son or not is something I’ve come to terms with. Acknowledging him really doesn’t matter to me. If he grows up and wants to acknowledge me, I’ll be happy. If he doesn’t, I’ll understand.”
His indifference mainly stemmed from the fact that the illegitimate son had nothing to do with him financially!
He wasn’t actually his biological son; had he really slept with Rong Yan and Rong Weiwei came to tell him that Rong Yan had borne him a son, he would have definitely tried to take the child back and officially acknowledge his ancestry.
But if it’s not his son, it’s none of his business!
Rong Weiwei saw him change his tune suddenly and seemed unwilling to acknowledge the child, and, clenching her silver teeth tightly in anger, said, “But Mr. Huang, my sister was willing to give up her family for your sake and go abroad to give birth to the child. If you don’t acknowledge them, isn’t that too unfair to my sister?”
“Rong Yan wouldn’t want me to disturb her, right?” Huang Youde put on a troubled expression.
This damned greasy old man!
Rong Weiwei’s face turned green as she spoke up to remind him, “Mr. Huang, how could my sister not wish for you to disturb her? She definitely hopes that you would reach out to her proactively. After all, her idol career is booming, and there are countless eyes on her in private. Even if she wanted to find you, it wouldn’t be very convenient! At this time, you should take the initiative to contact my sister. Even if the child doesn’t end up under your name, my sister would probably still want him to be properly registered. You get what I’m saying, right?”
All those words she said basically translated to asking Huang Youde to go find Rong Yan for hush money!
“This…” Huang Youde was no fool and, of course, understood her implication. But he knew in his heart that the child had nothing to do with him and Rong Yan wasn’t looking for him because the child was unrelated to him. If he were to seek her out, who knows what mess it could cause, and he certainly wasn’t keen on that!
“Weiwei, I don’t understand your meaning. As for the child’s registration, Rong Yan would probably figure out a way on her own, I’d better not interfere.”
“Mr. Huang!” Rong Weiwei forcefully cut him off with uncontrollable anger.
Then narrowing her eyes and maintaining a stern face, she said bluntly, “How much money do you want to go find my sister?”
“Weiwei?”
Huang Youde didn’t expect her to lose her temper so quickly, feeling a surge of secret pleasure at her words.
“What do you mean? I don’t understand…”
Hmph, the old man still wanted to play dumb with her! Rong Weiwei took a deep breath and spoke with a tense face, “You must know that I’ve been harassed by the news of the lawsuits recently. I can give you a sum of money, and you can help me find my sister. Use the child as a bargaining chip, and get her to drop the case. You just need to bring up this request to her, I don’t care about any other conditions you want to negotiate with her!”
In other words, extort as much money as you want.
Huang Youde privately scoffed, after all that pretense, wasn’t her true motive revealed? Rong Weiwei told him all that, yet in the end, wasn’t her intention just to target Rong Yan!
She spoke so nicely!
“What if I find Rong Yan and she refuses to drop the case?” Huang Youde didn’t care what kind of person Rong Weiwei was, he was more interested in his own benefits.
Rong Weiwei’s eyes darkened as she closed them, saying with full confidence, “You can rest assured, just find her and use the child as leverage, and my sister will agree to any demand you make!”
