Wang Zichen wiped his tears hard but said nothing.
“Help me say something!” Wang Yunzhong was angry and looked at Jiang Chunfen.
Did she want to snatch his son away?
Jiang Chunfen came back to her senses and said, “I don’t care. Zichen decided himself. If he wants to stay with me, he can stay. I won’t stop him from leaving with you, but you have to promise to be responsible for him! You disappeared for half a month. What kind of father are you?”
He initially wanted Jiang Chunfen to help persuade their son, but he ended up being scolded.
Wang Yunzhong took a deep breath and didn’t listen to Jiang Chunfen’s complaints. He only stared at Wang Zichen for a long time.
In the end, he used his trump card. “Come home with me. I’ll apologize and compensate you. I’ll do anything you want!”
As expected, this was a killer move.
“Really?” Wang Zichen finally raised his head.
“Yes!” Wang Yunzhong nodded.
After getting out of the car, Wang Zichen walked to Jiang Chunfen and said, “Mom, Dad and I will go back now.”
Jiang Chunfen nodded. After all, her son was left to the Wang family after the divorce, so she couldn’t force him to stay. She only instructed, “Call Mom immediately if anything happens. If you want to come back, come back anytime.”
Wang Zichen answered and turned around to get into Wang Yunzhong’s Mercedes.
Wang Yunzhong took out an envelope from his bag and handed it to Jiang Chunfen. He said, “Here’s twenty thousand yuan. It’s Zimeng’s custody fee.”
Jiang Chunfen looked at him and reached out to take it. Then, she snorted. “At least you have a conscience.”
Wang Yunzhong didn’t want to talk to Jiang Chunfen. He turned around and patted Wang Zimeng’s head. Then, he got into the car and drove away.
Wang Zimeng watched her father leave with tears in her eyes, but she held back her tears.
She was indeed closer to her mother, but she had the same feelings for her father, who favored her brother.
In the car, Wang Yunzhong asked, “Why are you back so late? Where did your mother take you?”
“We went to celebrate Jian Ai’s birthday,” Wang Zichen answered casually.
Wang Yunzhong was stunned, and he thought he had misheard it. He couldn’t help but ask, “For who?”
Wang Zichen rolled his eyes impatiently. “Jian Ai, your niece!”
“Dad, I want a computer!” Without waiting for Wang Yunzhong to think about it, Wang Zichen said, “I want a notebook!”
“Alright, Dad will bring you out to buy one tomorrow,” Wang Yunzhong agreed. He had made a mistake, so he had to find his image of a good father elsewhere.
When Wang Zichen heard this, he smiled.
…
When Jian Ai and Jian Yu returned to South City, it was already past eleven in the evening. The dirt road leading to their house was pitch-black, and only a few families who had not slept yet had dim lights on.
Outside the main gate, an orange Porsche was parked by the road. A long figure was leaning against the front of the car, and there was some light glowing from his hand. There should be a cigarette butt.
Hearing footsteps, Wu Bi looked up. Under the slightly cold moonlight, he recognized Jian Ai’s outline.
“Brother Wu Bi?” Jian Ai couldn’t help but exclaim when she saw who it was.
Jian Yu was also stunned. “Brother Wu Bi, why are you here?”
Wu Bi smiled and walked up to the two of them. “It’s such an important day today. How can I not come?”
Jian Ai was stunned. Did Brother Wu Bi know about her birthday?
In her impression, she had never told him!
Jian Ai was puzzled when Wu Bi pulled her hand and placed the Porsche’s car key in Jian Ai’s palm.
“Girl, happy birthday!”
