Shocked, Xue Shangqing and Lan Jianqiu quickly stood in front of Shen Guangsi. âGuangsi, calm down. Letâs talk over it. â
âTalk, my ass! Xue Chenkong, return my daughter to me immediately. Otherwise, itâs no use even if your parents try to stop me. Iâm going to teach you a lesson today!â Shen Guangsi was so angry that he didnât care about his manners and wanted to snatch his daughter back.
The look in Xue Chenkongâs eyes changed, and he dodged nimbly. He was worried that the baby in his arms would be snatched away, so he turned around and ran upstairs with the baby in his arms.
âStop right there! â Shen Guangsi hurriedly gave chase.
Meanwhile, Lan Jianqiuâs face turned pale. âAh Kong, stop there! Donât drop the baby! â
Xue Chenkong, on the other hand, did not seem to hear her. He continued to run up the winding stairs.
âStop! I wonât chase you anymore, so stop running! â Shen Guangsiâs heart was about to jump out of his chest as he watched Xue Chenkong run faster and faster.
In their circle, everyone knew of Xue Chenkongâs condition. He was a genius and had an outstanding IQ, but he was born with autism and mania. When he went crazy, he couldnât control himself at all.
Shen Guangsi took a deep breath and tried his best to calm himself. He then coaxed softly, âAh Kong, can you return the baby to me? Tell me what you want, and Iâll agree to anything. â
Xue Chenkong looked at Shen Guangsi warily and hugged the baby in his arms tighter. It was obvious that he did not want to give her back.
Shen Guangsi was speechless. He mused, âDamn it, if only he werenât a child, I wouldâve⦠â
Fearing that Xue Chenkong would abruptly have an episode and accidentally hurt his daughter, Shen Guangsi did not dare to corner him. Ultimately, he could only vent his anger on Lan Jianqiu and Xue Shangqing, âWhat now? ! â
Xue Shangqing, who had an awe-inspiring presence in the business world, had also weakened in the face of such a situation.
The same went for Lan Jianqiu, who was usually adept at handling sticky situations outside.
The two of them were helpless when it came to their youngest son.
After a long while, Xue Shangqing spoke. âHow about this? Since Ah Kong likes your daughter so much, why donât we let her stay here for a while, and then weâll send her back? â
âStay for a period of time? What kind of nonsense is that? I havenât spent enough time with my newborn daughter yet! â Shen Guangsi thought as he shouted, âNo! â
âGuangsi, look at you, youâre so petty! My son likes your daughter, so why not? â Contrary to Shen Guangsi, Xue Shangqing felt that it was a good idea.
Shen Guangsiâs face turned green from anger. âI just canât allow it! â He mused, âThis familyâs too shameless, actually calling him petty! â
âItâs just a few days!â Xue Shangqing didnât feel that he was shameless at all.
In response, Shen Guangsi straightened his neck and retorted, âIf you have the ability, you can give birth to your own instead of snatching my daughter! â
âIf you keep nagging like this, then Iâ¦â Xue Shangqing was used to being overbearing.
Seeing that the two of them were about to start quarreling, Lan Jianqiu quickly pulled her husband back. She looked at the indignant Shen Guangsi and smiled. âGuangsi, youâve seen the current situation. Why donât we arrange an arranged marriage? â
âIn your dreams! â Shen Guangsi immediately rejected.
Lan Jianqiu also knew that he wouldnât agree. After all, her son was different from normal children. Signaling the butler to bring over a check for one billion and some documents, she continued, âThis one billion is your daughterâs pocket money. Also, this is 10% of Xue Corporationâs shares. As long as they get engaged, the shares will be hers. â
Xue Corporationâs shares werenât normally transferred to outsiders to ensure the familyâs profit. Therefore, 10% of the shares meant a lot.
However, who would readily marry their precious daughter to an emotionally unstable child? Shen Guangsi wasnât lacking in money, so he waved his hand arrogantly. âI just canât! Without my agreement, it wonât proceed. â
But as soon as he said that, Lan Jianqiu suddenly began to cry, pleading earnestly, âGuangsi, I know that this request is too much, but the doctor said that there is a possibility of curing Ah Kongâs illness. Moreover, a traveling monk said that Ah Kongâs fate encompassed a benefactor, and it seems that your daughter is that person! Guangsi, you watched Ah Kong grow up. You know how it is for him⦠â
Shen Guangsiâs heart softened as he heard that, but his daughter had just been born!
Lan Jianqiu continued, âGuangsi, donât worry. We wonât make things difficult for you. If Ah Kong still doesnât recover after 18 years, then their engagement will be called off. These 10% shares will be the compensation. â
Shen Guangsi looked at Xue Chenkong hesitantly, with the latter looking back. Xue Chenkongâs eyes showed timidity and anticipation, but he was worried that the baby in his arms would be taken away, so he held her tighter. His innocent gaze made Shen Guangsi feel bad.
The boy was a genius, had outstanding looks, and had a good family background. In the entire capital, Xue Chenkong was second to none! Moreover, the two families had been friends for generations and knew each other very well. If it wasnât for Xue Chenkongâs illness, it would have been an impeccable marriage.
Shen Guangsi gritted his teeth. In any case, with the Shen familyâs background, if Xue Chenkong dared to mistreat his daughter in the future, he would definitely give Xue Chenkong a hard time. This time, the brat would get off easy!
