Chapter 205: Chapter 205: Reporting One’s Biological Father

SLAP—

The resounding slap made passersby stop in their tracks.

Everyone thought it was Xie Changning who had slapped Yu Laoer.

In reality, it wasn’t. It was Wang Daqiang, who had rushed over and struck Yu Laoer after hearing his provocative words.

They all had immense respect for the Factory Director. What did Yu Laoer think he was doing?

Was he afraid the factory would last too long?!

Yue Yang, who had heard the commotion from inside the lab, came out at that moment. She walked to Xie Changning’s side and said, "I’m sorry, Factory Director. You’re being insulted because of me."

"It has nothing to do with you."

Xie Changning said to Yue Yang.

This matter wasn’t Yue Yang’s fault in the first place. She had no need to apologize.

As for Yu Laoer, he clutched his face and glared furiously at Wang Daqiang. "Wang Daqiang, you dare hit me!"

"Insult the Factory Director one more time and see if I don’t kill you!" Wang Daqiang truly looked as if he wanted to strangle Yu Laoer right then and there.

He had never seen such a foolish human being!

Yu Laoer was about to say something more, but when he saw that Wang Daqiang genuinely looked like he would kill him, he got scared.

Wang Daqiang’s eyes didn’t look like he was bluffing.

Men like Yu Laoer have the sharpest sense for danger. Seeing Wang Daqiang’s animosity toward him, his bluster subsided considerably. He spoke resentfully, "What right do you have to hit me? I just came to see my daughter!"

"And you think you can just insult the Factory Director?! Apologize to him! Now!"

"S-Sorry!"

Forced by Wang Daqiang, Yu Laoer obediently apologized to Xie Changning.

Xie Changning didn’t respond, instead turning to Yue Yang. "How do you want to handle this?"

"When I left home, he said that the moment I stepped out the door, I would no longer be his daughter. Now that he’s come looking for me, I won’t acknowledge him either."

As she spoke, Yue Yang looked at Yu Laoer, who stood before her.

"You should go. Don’t make me take legal action against you." She was no longer the powerless girl who could be bullied by him and his family without fighting back.

Now, she could bravely take up a bayonet and stab the biological father who had hurt her!

’She didn’t care! Because he wasn’t worthy!’

Huo Xiaoqian came out just in time to hear Yue Yang’s words. She gave Yue Yang a gratified thumbs-up. "Yangyang, you’re awesome!"

Yue Yang turned and smiled at Huo Xiaoqian.

Yu Laoer never imagined that the daughter who had been so afraid of him back then would dare to defy him and refuse to acknowledge him after just a short time out in the world!

"Bullshit! I’m your father! Even if you don’t acknowledge it, you’re still my flesh and blood! Now listen, hurry up and give me your subsidy money, or I’ll make you wish you had!"

Yu Laoer thought his threats would still work.

Unfortunately for him, Yue Yang paid his words no mind. In her eyes, Yu Laoer was just a paper tiger.

He’d crumble at the slightest touch.

He wasn’t that scary at all.

So, as Yu Laoer threatened her, she spoke slowly, "Yu Laoer, I have evidence that you secretly embezzled factory materials, as well as the receipts from when you illegally sold the factory’s soap..."

"You’re lying!"

The moment Yue Yang said this, the color drained from Yu Laoer’s face.

He hadn’t expected Yue Yang to actually place righteousness above family ties.

His authority as a father had been challenged! At the same time, fear and panic surged within him.

If this matter were investigated thoroughly, he and his family would all be kicked out of the factory...

"Yue Yang, you..."

"Do you really have evidence?"

Xie Changning and Wang Daqiang spoke at the same time, not giving Yu Laoer a chance to speak as they asked Yue Yang directly.

If she just nodded, the factory would immediately form an investigation team to look into Yu Laoer’s illicit sales.

Wang Daqiang had thought Yu Laoer was just reporting Xie Changning because he couldn’t take advantage of him. He never expected the man would also have the guts to steal from the factory!

"We will investigate this thoroughly. If it’s true, you can wait to be sued!"

Wang Daqiang shot a cold glare at Yu Laoer.

How could Yu Laoer dare cause any more trouble now? He stared daggers at Yue Yang. "You... You’re really something else, Yue Zhaodi!"

"My name is Yue Yang!"

Yue Yang corrected him.

’Yue Zhaodi died long ago. The person living now is Yue Yang.’

’Yue Yang would not support her brothers and become a blood bag for her parents and siblings. She would become a radiant pearl, shining brightly in her own field!’

"I don’t care if you’re Yue Yang or Yue Yin! I’m telling you, if my life is ruined, don’t think you’ll get off easy!"

"Then go ahead and try."

Yue Yang turned and went back into the laboratory.

Huo Xiaoqian looked at the few people remaining before chasing after her friend.

Others might not know her friend’s situation, but she did.

Her friend was a very sensitive person. For her to be able to face her father and say so much was already a huge feat.

After Yue Yang left, Yu Laoer began to back down.

Before, he wouldn’t have thought of backing down, but now, he truly did.

He was scared.

He knew he had been too cruel in his abuse of his daughter. Now, that boomerang was about to come back and hit him. If he didn’t think of a way out, he would be kicked out of the factory.

He couldn’t leave the factory!

If he left the factory, where else could he earn this much money?

"Factory Director, that damn girl is slandering me! I didn’t do anything!" With a shift of his eyes, Yu Laoer immediately dropped to his knees and wailed at Xie Changning.

It was as if he wasn’t the same person who had just called Xie Changning a bastard.

Xie Changning sometimes had to admire people like him. They were truly adaptable, willing to do anything to achieve their goals.

Xie Changning watched him coldly.

"You shouldn’t be telling me that. You should be telling it to the police. I will call them, and the truth of what happened will be brought to light."

After speaking, Xie Changning gave Wang Daqiang a meaningful look. 𝕗𝚛𝚎𝚎𝐰𝗲𝗯𝗻𝚘𝚟𝚎𝗹.𝕔𝐨𝕞

Wang Daqiang understood immediately. He beckoned to the people behind him, and the workers immediately stepped forward, restrained Yu Laoer, and took him to the police station.

Only after Yu Laoer was taken away did Xie Changning turn and enter the lab.

As soon as he walked in, he saw Huo Xiaoqian comforting Yue Yang.

Yue Yang stood there with a blank expression, lost in thought.

Hearing the door open, everyone in the lab instinctively turned to look at Xie Changning.

"Factory Director..."

Huo Xiaoqian began to speak to Xie Changning, hoping he would comfort Yue Yang.

However, upon hearing Huo Xiaoqian’s voice, Yue Yang immediately snapped out of it, no longer indulging in the emotions of the past.

"If you want to cry, then cry," Xie Changning said.

Hearing Xie Changning’s words, Yue Yang’s eyes reddened. She choked out, "I don’t want to cry." ’She was sunshine after the rain. Having been through the storm, she would not be defeated by hardship again.’

She didn’t want to cry.

"When you’ve been wronged, crying it out can make you feel better." Xie Changning walked over to Yue Yang and patted her head. "None of this is your fault. You don’t need to feel any psychological pressure. You did the right thing."
