Back to the 70s: My Childhood Sweetheart Spoils Me Rotten
Chapter 1051 - 1053: Hostage
"Since they are husband and wife, they can’t be like this," Cai Zhiheng advised.
He’s not stupid. If Cai Ming really went through with the divorce, he might actually do what he threatened to before.
Gong Ruini looked at the nervous Cai Zhiheng and almost wanted to laugh.
Being able to scare this foolish old man like this, I wonder what exactly her uncle did to him.
Husband and wife, huh, considering their marriage at this moment?
"Who are you?" The old woman had just rushed in, throwing around all kinds of rude words, which made Wan Qiweng furious.
Asking who he is? Cai Zhiheng was startled, about to retort on how she doesn’t recognize him.
Then he remembered this daughter-in-law really hadn’t seen him, "I’m Cai Ming’s father."
"Hello," Wan Qiweng said coldly, "Have you thought it through? Since you’re in Beijing, go handle the matter while you’re here."
"Uh..." Cai Ming took a deep breath; though he was putting on an act, he still felt uneasy.
"Fine, you and your son should just live well from now on."
"Don’t worry, my Wan family’s child, I can certainly take care of him," Wan Qiweng replied impatiently.
"What, the Wan family’s child? He’s the Cai family’s child," Tu Chunni got angry, rushing in intending to take Wan Yihui away.
Tu Chunni wanting Wan Yihui wasn’t out of affection for the child; in her heart, she disliked him.
Just as long as she had this child, she could make Wan Qiweng compromise and give them money.
Cai Ming moved quickly, dodging Tu Chunni’s attempt to grab him in a swift turn.
Then he handed Wan Yihui to Wan Qiweng, "What’s the matter."
"Give me the child."
"Exactly, take the child. With him, there’s no fear of having no money to spend," Cai Guoqing looked at the child in Wan Qiweng’s arms, eyes filled with greed.
As long as they could take this child, they wouldn’t have to worry about money.
"If you dare to take the child, I’ll make sure you get free meals in prison," Wan Qiweng shouted at Cai Guoqing.
"Do you really think this is your hometown?"
"This is Beijing; you can’t just run wild."
"Exactly, your two sons did things that are worthy of being educated, so what’s the harm in one more," Wan Qiweng looked at Cai Guoqing’s sinister demeanor with complete indifference.
How did he know about the sons? Don’t think just because Cai Guoqing is selfish, he wouldn’t care at all about his sons, but it doesn’t mean he truly does not want to manage them.
Reeducation? Cai Zhiheng looked hesitantly at Wan Qiweng, "What do you mean by that?"
"What do you think," Wan Qiweng glanced at Cai Guoqing’s evasive eyes and knew he hadn’t revealed it.
Really think not mentioning it would solve everything? "Your precious grandsons blackmailed others."
"Impossible," Tu Chunni retorted angrily, "They’re just kids; they wouldn’t do such things."
"Yes, they are kids, but ones who could go into a juvenile center," Wan Qiweng said sarcastically.
"It’s your family’s way of thinking that allows this." Wan Qiweng sneered, "Having such an unreasonable grandmother and a confused grandfather who only spoils kids."
"A father who relies on the parents and doesn’t care about his children—no wonder they’d grow up like this," Wan Qiweng didn’t want to talk more with Cai Ming.
She turned and left with her son, having come this time just to ignite a fire.
"It’s better for you to go back soon; spare yourselves from doing foolish things here in Beijing."
"Beijing is no place for them to mess around."
After receiving the compiled information, Wan Qiweng was genuinely shocked. People say children are young, but could children really do such things?
Gong Ruini, having watched the whole thing from the side, also turned to leave. Anyway, the Cai family’s elders had seen it; though the old man had grown thin, his vigor was still robust.
But his mind seemed to get more confused; how could he not know about what Cai Weitao and the others did?
Or maybe he just dismissed it as a prank, not taking it seriously.
"Ni Zi, Ni Zi," Cai Zhiheng held onto Gong Ruini, "Has your mom returned?"
"My mom is back; she’s locked up by me, or she’d end up like Uncle," scoffed Ni Zi. Did they think that with Cai Meina back, their situation would change?
"Ah, your dad has grown bold," Tu Chunni rolled up her sleeves in fury, intending to confront Gong Tao.
"If he didn’t have guts, how could he possibly succeed, perhaps to avoid raising a worthless brother-in-law?" Gong Ruini’s contempt for Cai Guoqing was evident.
That guy, a real train wreck. He shouted so loudly before, insisting on taking Wan Yihui away, yet it was all talk; he didn’t lift a hand, just waited for Tu Chunni to act.
"You..." Cai Guoqing didn’t dare to confront Wan Qiweng, but he had no fear of Gong Ruini.
He initially worried Wan Qiweng was a wealthy heiress and treated her cautiously, but there was no such concern for confronting Gong Ruini.
What’s wrong with an uncle disciplining his niece?
Gong Ruini wasn’t afraid, merely looked at Cai Guoqing with a smile.
Zhao Xuran pulled Gong Ruini behind him, "What’s your problem."
With a height of 1.8 meters, Zhao Xuran gave Cai Guoqing a sense of pressure.
"Who are you?" Cai Guoqing grumbled discontentedly.
"Who I am is not something you need to know," Zhao Xuran said with a cutting tone.
"You, you..." Cai Guoqing intended to say some proverbial words.
But faced with an obviously junior lad overbearing him, he felt various displeasures.
"If you want a fight, I’m more than happy to oblige," Zhao Xuran rolled up his sleeves, ready to go at it.
Cai Guoqing, seeing Zhao Xuran ready to get physical at the smallest disagreement, was startled and backed up a few steps.
Still feeling unsafe, he retreated further behind Tu Chunni.
Watching Cai Guoqing, who was relatively taller and bigger than Tu Chunni, hide behind her, Gong Ruini almost wanted to laugh out loud.
Cai Ming wasn’t going to save Cai Guoqing’s face; he laughed loudly, "You truly have a good conscience."
"Aren’t you worried Mom will get hit?" He sneered, did he really consider himself a child?
"I’ll see who dares lay a hand on my son," Tu Chunni, though a bit scared, couldn’t just watch her son get bullied.
Tu Chunni tried her best to control her trembling legs, "Young man, I’m telling you, if you dare to hit me, I won’t let you off."
"Hit you?" Zhao Xuran didn’t mean it, "I don’t hit old ladies."
"However, please tell your son to behave. This is Beijing," Zhao Xuran said meaningfully.
"It’s not a place for an old thug to run rampant. Be careful not to offend those you shouldn’t."
"You, are you threatening me?" Cai Guoqing timidly asked.
Threatening? Zhao Xuran laughed, "Do you think I need to threaten you?"
"Do you think by staying in Beijing, what can you do?"
"Can your son endure?"
"Won’t they resort to their old ways?"
Cai Guoqing recalled how his two sons had been itching for action these past few days, and if they continued to stay, he really couldn’t guarantee what those two punks would do.
If they actually carried out blackmail again, given Gong Tao’s methods, playing them to death would be like a walk in the park.
Plus, the poor food and lack of outings or money in hand in Beijing made Cai Guoqing extremely dissatisfied.
Returning was necessary; only by going back could he meet old friends, eat well, and enjoy life.
