Lu Weixi put down the teacup, a glint in her smiling eyes. “First, the money is all mine. I will handle the transfer tomorrow and the Bai Family is mine. Not a cent is to be given to anyone else. Second, you are to divorce Miss Cai and get rid of them. I don’t ever want to see the three of them again. As long as you can do these two things, I’ll come back home with you right away and I won’t bring up the past again.”
The moment her words landed, the first to object wasn’t Bai Changyou, but surprisingly, it was Cai Yiren.
She stood up and said, “Lu Weixi, it’s one thing if you don’t want to give me anything. But my mother is my father’s legal wife, and my brother is my father’s son. They should have their own share. Who are you to deprive them?”
Cai’s mother quickly tried to calm her, “Yiren, don’t say such things! Your father knows his responsibilities, he won’t neglect your brother.”
Though Bai Weiyi was only five, he could vaguely understand what the adults were saying. Often, in the Bai Family, Cai’s mother told him “everything in the Bai family will be yours,” and now this woman wants to take everything, he wouldn’t stand for it. Immediately he shouted angrily, “You nasty woman, you are not getting my stuff, the Bai Family belongs to me!”
Bai Changyou turned his head back quickly, “Xixi, you were not such a petty child.”
“Well, I am.” Lu Weixi admitted bluntly, “So what if she’s his legal wife, and her son is his blood and bone? My mother was once his legal wife, too, and I’m his daughter just as much. Didn’t he deprive us as well? Why can’t you accept it when it’s your turn?”
She turned her sharp gaze to Bai Changyou, “This is non-negotiable. If you want me to come back home and want Zhiyou’s help, fine. As long as you give me all the properties and drive these people away, I can act like nothing happened. They are your family, but they aren’t mine.”
“You!…” If Bai Changyou still didn’t realize that Lu Weixi was just toying with him, he would definitely feel like a fool. Bai Changyou suddenly stood up, his gaze losing its previous tenderness and turning fierce.
Lu Weixi didn’t flinch in the slightest, her eyes stared directly back at him.
Right, this was the Bai Changyou she knew. Beneath his initial warmth and kindness was just a cold-hearted and selfish man.
A house, a car, and a quarter of his properties, did he think she actually coveted them? If she really cared about money, she wouldn’t have helped her mother file a lawsuit five years ago, nor would she have had to split every cent in half when her mother fell ill.
Moreover, if she really wanted money, siding with him wouldn’t be as beneficial as currying favor with Qin Zhiyou. The wealth of the Hanhai Group far surpassed his small Bai Family’s quarter of the fortune. She didn’t want even a cent from Qin Zhiyou, let alone these trinkets. Even if she could inherit them in the future, she would donate everything. It disgusted her!
Bai Changyou became extremely angry, he knew his daughter had a fiery temper, but he never expected her to disregard his dignity to this extent. He even used Qin Zhiyou as an example, “Do you think you can do whatever you want just because you have the backing of the Qin Family now? Feelings are the most unpredictable thing. Given that you originally married him just to spite Qin Zhigu, and you had no actual feelings for him. There will be times when you’ll weep!”
“That’s none of your business.” Qin Zhiyou, being singled out, naturally puffed up and tried to assert his presence, “In this life and in the next life, Lu Weixi is my only wife. My children will only be ours..”
