Chapter 947: Father and Daughter Sever Ties, Li Yuan Travels to Beijing (Part 2)

“The house you bought for my mom was 634,800 yuan, the car was 265,800 yuan, the renovation was 83,000 yuan… the university tuition was 4,558 yuan, and the living expenses for four months totaled 3,500 yuan…”

“Ha, Zhong Zhengping, do you want me to calculate it for you one by one?”

Upon hearing the precise figures spoken by Zhong Tingyue, Zhong Zhengping’s brow furrowed tightly. He didn’t expect Zhong Tingyue would remember every single expense so clearly…

Before he could open his mouth, he heard Zhong Tingyue continue in a mocking tone.

“Rest assured, the money you spent on me and my mom, I will repay you every single cent.”

“Oh, and with interest too.”

“As for the surname Zhong, do you think I care about it? Do you think I cherish it?”

“This surname brings me only hate, only shame.”

“Now I’ll return this surname to you, from now on, my surname will be Gu, and I’ll be called Gu Tingyue.”

“Ha, are you also trying to say that you were the one who named me?”

“I’ve asked my mom a long time ago, she named me, it has nothing to do with you. If not for my mom desperately stopping you, you wouldn’t have let me be born into this world, right?”

“Zhong Zhengping, touch your own conscience, ask yourself, do you deserve to say these words?”

“Do you deserve to be my father?”

“You make me feel disgusted.”

“Ha, indeed, a father who wants to sell his daughter, how can he even be considered a father, not even as good as pigs and dogs, just a beast demon in human skin!”

Li Yuan, listening from the side to Zhong Tingyue’s sudden outburst, also felt somewhat incredulous.

He had no idea that Zhong Tingyue’s hatred for Zhong Zhengping was so deep, even recording every single penny spent in her mind.

Upon reflection, he thought it was only natural; if he were in her position, he might be even angrier.

Li Yuan just held Zhong Tingyue’s small hand tightly, steadfastly standing by her side, ensuring she wouldn’t suffer the slightest harm.

Zhong Zhengping angrily swung his sleeves and stood up, pointing furiously at Zhong Tingyue.

“You, you, you!”

“Fine, fine, fine, I’d like to see what you can do to me.”

After saying this, Zhong Zhengping only gave a fierce look at both Zhong Tingyue and Li Yuan, left a harsh remark, and stormed out.

Once Zhong Zhengping left, the once resolute and argumentative Zhong Tingyue suddenly deflated like a punctured balloon, sitting in her seat with soulless eyes, looking lost.

Seeing this, Li Yuan quickly reached out his arm and pulled Zhong Tingyue into his embrace, softly comforting her.

“Little Moon, don’t be afraid, don’t be sad, you’ve lost a scumbag father, but you still have me, and mom, we will all be by your side.”

Hearing Li Yuan’s words, Zhong Tingyue’s emotions seemed to suddenly have their floodgates opened, and the grievances in her heart could no longer be contained, tears streaming down uncontrollably…

“Sob! Sob, senior, I’m really so sad, so sad.”

Li Yuan patted the shoulder of the beauty in his arms, comforting her, “Don’t be sad, this is a good thing, to cut ties with him, let’s go back to Modu and start afresh.”

“There, is where our home is, where you won’t suffer any grievances.”

Zhong Tingyue clung to Li Yuan, her heart filled with endless grievances, tears flowing endlessly.

“Senior, I want to bring my mom back to Modu.”

“Hmm, sure, there’s room in our house, and in Modu, you can see each other often.”

“Is Mrs. Gu willing to come to Modu?”

“Yes, she is willing, I spoke with my mom during the New Year; she’s willing to come with me to settle in Modu, she just didn’t know your opinion and felt too shy to mention it.”

“Of course I’m willing, your mom is like my own.”

“Senior, thank you, it’s so great to have you.”

“Silly girl, I should be thanking you for letting me have the good fortune to meet such a perfect girl.”

“Senior, my mom doesn’t know about what happened today yet, I’m not sure how to face her.”

“Don’t worry, Mrs. Gu will surely understand you.”

“Sigh, my mom has a soft heart. I don’t want to see her cry.”

“Little Moon, let’s go see Mrs. Gu later and explain today’s situation in detail, I believe she will understand you.”

“Alright, then what about the house?”

“The house? What’s that, with the whole Sucheng, can’t we still find a storefront?”

“Besides, even if I don’t open a branch in Sucheng, it doesn’t matter to me. Little Moon, remember this, even the whole ‘Tea Color Moonlight’ cannot compare to your importance in my heart.”

“Senior!”

“Hmm?”

“Kiss me!”

…

Gu Lanxin is still living in Sucheng,

when Zhong Tingyue and Li Yuan arrived at the neighborhood in a Rolls Royce, they happened to see Gu Lanxin chatting leisurely with several older women downstairs.

“Mom!”

“Mrs. Gu!”

Both greeted in unison, stepping forward.

Seeing Li Yuan and her daughter suddenly return, Gu Lanxin immediately showed a look of surprise.

“Li Yuan, Little Moon, why did you come back now?”

Zhong Tingyue quickly walked over and rushed into Gu Lanxin’s arms, tears falling down.

Looking at her crying daughter, Gu Lanxin felt heartbreak and quickly asked what happened.

Through her tears, Zhong Tingyue briefly described the situation to Gu Lanxin.

When Gu Lanxin heard about Zhong Zhengping’s schemes against her precious daughter, her body trembled violently, her mind went blank, completely unable to believe it, she asked in a trembling voice.

“Little Moon, is what you said true? Did he really plan to do that?”

Zhong Tingyue nodded while crying, “Yes, I heard it with my own ears; at that time, he was talking on the phone with someone…”

Upon hearing her daughter’s response, the anger within Gu Lanxin’s heart flared up instantly.

Zhong Tingyue is her only daughter, the closest person to her in the world, her Achilles’ heel.

She couldn’t believe that the daughter she carried for ten months and gave birth to through hardship would be calculated by her biological father…

“Zhong Zhengping, you scum, bastard, you are not human, how could you do this…”

Gu Lanxin, consumed by rage, cursed out loud.

“Bastard, I followed you without regret for half my life, and this is how you treat me and our daughter. I will kill you, bastard, worthless scum, I am going all out with you…”

Seeing Gu Lanxin, looking mad, wanting to grab a knife and fight, Zhong Tingyue hurriedly reached out to stop her.

“Mom, don’t bother with that bastard, he’s not worth it, come back to Modu with us, okay?”

Gu Lanxin still felt unsatisfied, “Bastard, I want to confront him and ask him, what right does he have to treat us like this, how did we wrong him?”

Zhong Tingyue just held Gu Lanxin tightly.

“Mom, I never want to see him again; let’s pack our things and go back to Modu together.”

Li Yuan, seeing this, also urged, “Auntie, let’s go back to Modu, it has everything we need, and you can see Little Moon every day.”

Seeing Li Yuan and her daughter trying to persuade her, Gu Lanxin still felt unsatisfied, stomping her feet.

“This scum, bastard, I must have been blind to stay with him…”

After cursing for a while longer, Gu Lanxin then looked seriously at Zhong Tingyue.

“Little Moon, mom agrees to go back to Modu with you.”

…

There were many things in Gu Lanxin’s home, but truly valuable items were few, mainly taking some clothes and jewelry.

Upon seeing Li Yuan’s Rolls Royce, she was slightly surprised but did not express much.

Considering Li Yuan’s current wealth, not buying a Rolls Royce to display his status would be strange…

In Modu, Li Yuan owns many properties.

Before university started, he bought seven apartments, later added two standalone large villas, three top-notch flats, and various shops, storefronts, factory buildings, etc., with a total fixed asset investment in real estate exceeding 300 million, never short of places to live…

Li Yuan immediately decided to give the apartment in Jinxiu Villas, where Zhong Tingyue used to live, to his mother-in-law Gu Lanxin…

Once everything was prepared,

on February 12, 2009, the eighteenth day of the month, Li Yuan boarded a flight to Beijing alone…

He is going to meet someone!
