Before he could say anything, Zhao Youlin smiled and added, “Since you have no money, why did you come to me when you were supposed to go to Chief Zhao? Don’t forget this, Uncle Shuncheng, Chief Zhao is your son on paper now. Or is it because you tried and he wouldn’t give you a cent, and that’s why you turned to me?”

Zhao Shuncheng shot Zhao Youlin another glare in a resentful manner. His eyes were filled with embarrassing fury.

Zhao Youlin was not intimidated by the fury of a paper tiger like him. The corners of her lips hooked. In a pretentious manner, she raised her head and lamented, “But if you think about it, it is understandable. Is there anyone in the world who would be so stupid to give money to his father so that he can support his mistress and illegitimate children out there? That is not different from raising ingrates who would threaten him in the future, is it?”

When Zhao Youlin reminded him of this, Zhao Shuncheng remembered that Zhao Zhao Youming had been turning him away for various reasons when he went to see him. Once or twice was still understandable, but he had turned him away so many times, and that only meant that Zhao Youming was avoiding him on purpose.

Could it be just as Zhao Youlin had said? His son was avoiding him on purpose? Did he already know about Sun Qian’s pregnancy? But how was that possible? He had kept it hidden so well, how could he possibly find out about it?

Zhao Shuncheng frowned and could not figure out how his son found out. In the end, he chose to throw the question directly to Zhao Youlin. He asked with a sullen look on his face, “How do you know about this? Why did Youming suddenly not want to see me? How did he… How did he know about my affairs? I clearly…”

“You clearly what? You clearly hid it well? Huh?” Zhao Youlin sneered. “Uncle Shuncheng, no secret can be kept forever. If you don’t want people to know, you shouldn’t have done it in the first place. Even I have the photo of your young lover’s pregnancy, so what’s so weird about Chief Zhao finding out about your indecent affairs out there?”

Seeing Zhao Shuncheng’s eyes darkened, Zhao Youlin deliberately paused for a second before she chuckled lightly. “However, I’ll be honest with you, Uncle Shuncheng. I was the one who told Chief Zhao about your young lover’s pregnancy.”

“You!” Zhao Shuncheng’s expression suddenly turned ferocious. If it was not for the fact that Zhao Shunrong and Duan Yarong were standing beside her, he would have already lunged toward Zhao Youlin. “Why did you do that?”

“For a simple reason.” Zhao Youlin smiled lightly. A trace of mischief could be seen in her eyes. “I just want him to feel what I felt when I suddenly find out that my biological father was sleeping around with other women and fathered several half-siblings for me. Though the truth is that he is still luckier than I am. After all, his mother’s skill in seducing men is much better than my own mother’s. He only came to face such things when he has grown up, unlike me, who has to face such a disgraceful father at a young age!”

“You… You… I am going to kill you today, you unfilial daughter!” Under Zhao Youlin’s provocation, Zhao Shuncheng could no longer hold back his temper. He raised his hand and attempted to slap Zhao Youlin.

Unfortunately, before his hand could even reach Zhao Youlin, he was pushed back by Zhao Shunrong, who heard the commotion and stepped in front of her.

“What are you doing? You want to hurt her?” Zhao Shunrong’s icy tone carried a fit of palpable anger, knocking some sense into Zhao Shuncheng.

Zhao Youlin stood behind Zhao Shunrong, looking down at Zhao Shuncheng, who was pushed to the ground by Zhao Shunrong. She smiled coldly and him and ‘kindly’ reminded, “Uncle Shuncheng, instead of making a scene here, why don’t you use the time to think about how you can explain to your son about his new stepmother and the upcoming birth of his step-sister or step-brother? Repair your relationship with him? Or, maybe you actually don’t care about him at all. You are expecting a new child, after all. Chief Zhao, the son you had with your former lover, has become dispensable, just like… me back then.”

The moment Zhao Youlin said that, Zhao Shuncheng’s face turned white in an instant. After glaring at Zhao Yulin angrily, he stumbled up from the floor. Then, he turned and rushed out of the office.

Zhao Shuncheng had moved too fast. Zhao Shunrong and the rest were only focusing to guard against him from lunging toward them again, so they did not expect him to suddenly run away. By the time they came around, Zhao Shuncheng was already out of sight.

Duan Yarong was the first to react. She wanted to go after him, but Zhao Youlin stopped her.

“Youlin, what are you doing? Get out of the way. We can’t let him get away like this.” Duan Yarong frowned and said to Zhao Youlin in an anxious manner.

Zhao Youlin shook her head. She took Duan Yarong’s hand and said, “Mom, even if you run out now, he must have already been gone. Besides, do you really think you can change anything if you go after him? For a man like Zhao Shuncheng, once he has pocketed those stuff, do you really think you can make him give those stuff back?”

Duan Yarong’s face darkened. She looked at Zhao Youlin with disagreement and indignation. Then, she said, “Are we just going to let him get away like this? Absolutely not. Those items were left to you by Su Xin. How can we do nothing and let him keep them to himself? Not to mention that he even gave them to those undignified women? Youlin, don’t worry. Leave this to me and your dad. We will help you to get back those things that your mother left for you.”

As soon as Duan Yarong finished speaking, Zhao Shunrong chimed in. “Don’t worry, just leave this to us.”

Zhao Youlin choked for a moment. Looking at the serious expression on Duan Yarong and Zhao Shunrong’s faces, the corners of her lips silently twitched a little.

She was not the real Zhao Youlin, so she did not have any special feelings about the things that Zhao Youlin’s mother left for her, but since the two elders were so eager to help, she did not feel right to say anything more to be a buzzkill.

As the saying goes, go for wool and come back shorn. Zhao Shuncheng must really regret it now. However…

Zhao Youlin walked Duan Yarong and Zhao Shunrong out with a smile while narrowing her eyes.

She did not believe that Zhao Shuncheng coming to seek trouble with her all of a sudden was a coincidence. It looked like she had to do some preparation in advance, in case she encountered more troubles during her wedding and let these vermin ruin her good mood.

At the same time, a young man, who claimed to have gone out for an unexpected business trip, was in the same building as Zhao Youlin, though the floor he was in was a few floors lower than Zhao Youlin’s office. He was standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows and looking at the people coming and going like ants in front of Zhao Enterprise’s entrance.

Suddenly, his gaze was attracted by a stumbling and miserable figure running out from the entrance. After seeing the man leaving Zhao Enterprise hastily, a few traces of disappointment emerged uncontrollably in the young man’s eyes.

He raised his hand and closed the curtains of the floor-to-ceiling windows, blocking out the overly bright sunlight outside.
