"Regarding the rumors about us circulating online, I think it’s time to put an end to it, especially the part where you all say I’m not giving Wei Dong the house. I think this is a huge misunderstanding. To prove I’m not lying, I’ll livestream the transfer process on Monday. I’ll transfer my largest and best-located house to Wei Dong. Whatever he does with it in the future is his business, and we as a couple absolutely won’t interfere."

"Additionally, regarding the house Liang Xin owns in J City, I hope you return it to your mother-in-law. I can transfer both houses here to you. As you know, your older sister has one, and I’ve promised to transfer one to Wei Dong. The remaining two houses, we’ll live in one and the other will be yours when we’re old. If you like it, come over and transfer it. If you don’t, I’ll sell it and give you the money, along with the previous compensation, all to compensate you. Just hope you’ll return the J City house to your mother-in-law. After all, they as a couple have not had it easy, having given everything for Liang Xin..."

Wei Dong put both of them under spiritual control. Until the transfer is complete, he won’t restore their sanity.

This is considered his punishment for them. If you Du Juan, the cuckoo, can escape the law’s punishment, you still can’t cheat their son out of anything. As for whether Shi Lei listens, he doesn’t care. After all, if Du Juan as much as utters a word, she’ll have to spend her entire savings for the mother and son. Only when she is stripped clean will Shi Lei let Mrs. Song go. This is Wei Dong’s plan.

After dinner, he went home with the old couple. The neighbors, seeing this, greeted them as usual. Under his control, the two of them seemed no different from normal people. Besides, within just a few hours, the content of Du Juan’s livestream spread across the entire internet, seen by many. Watching them walk by, people kept giving advice.

"Wouldn’t it have been easier if you’d done this earlier? Don’t think that escaping legal punishment means you can do whatever you want. They’ve given their all for your child. If you’d acted like this early on, it wouldn’t have come to this mess. This iron rooster, when it needs plucking, should be plucked!"

...

When they got home, the couple’s phones wouldn’t stop ringing, especially Shi Lei’s. One call after another, clearly agitated and greatly affected.

Under her suggestion, Du Juan answered the call and, as soon as it connected, hit the record button, soon hearing Shi Lei’s roar.

"What do you mean? Didn’t we agree? I want the house in J City, and I won’t give it to them, not even if I die. They bought it for me in the first place, so why can’t I live there? Mind your own business. Why make decisions for me? People all over the internet are shouting at me because of you. You won’t give me your house? Those houses will be mine eventually, because I’ve given you the only grandson. Do you expect that foolish daughter to carry on the family line? And why do you say you’ll give that big house to Wei Dong? We agreed on this before, why change it without consulting me and post it online? Do you feel envious seeing my good life? Speak up; are you mute now?"

Wei Dong found the call unbelievably ironic and disgusting. He never thought this woman would be so greedy, to want everything as if it were all hers.

Ha! Now it seems like carrying the name of Du Juan, the cuckoo, really allows you to do so many things openly!

Du Juan stayed silent, and when Shi Lei sensed something was wrong and wanted to hang up, she spoke.

"Xiao Lei, you can’t put it that way. I just came to realize that, given how widely spread this has become online, with the whole nation knowing, there has to be a resolution, right? You return the house, I give a house, it can both quell the anger and extinguish the public’s resentment toward us. Why not do it?"

"I can sell one of the two houses I own first. The proceeds from selling the house, plus our savings, is enough for you to buy a new home there. Why quibble over this house?"

"Quibble? Am I quibbling? This was left to me by your son, holding memories for our family of three. We personally selected everything when renovating; you think I can just give it up because you say so? You can, because you have no feelings. I can’t because the person who left is my husband."

Unexpectedly, despite a poor character, a person can still be sentimental.

"Since that’s the case, you keep the house, and I’ll give my savings and the proceeds from selling the house to your mother-in-law to buy a new house. Is that okay?"

"No, why should you use my money for them? Your money is for your grandson, and your grandson’s money is mine, so you can’t give it to them."

In circles they go, back to where they started. This Shi Lei refuses to return the house, not only that, but also prevents the Wei Family from giving money? How laughable.

"My house, my decision. If I want to give money, I’ll give money. Don’t you think you’re meddling too much as a junior?"

"Did someone bewitch your brains? You used to stand with me on the same front, didn’t you? Just having a meal with your past son, you’ve forgotten your original intentions? Sure, it’s your house, your money, but now there’s a rift with this son. In the future, he’ll change his surname. I can ensure your grandson will bear the Wei name, so isn’t keeping the house more fitting for me?"

Isn’t this a veiled threat?

No house, no money, then change the surname!

In the end, it naturally ended without resolution, with no one willing to compromise. But with Wei Dong controlling these two, she ordered Du Juan to call the real estate agency to prepare to sell those two houses.

No more transfers, just turning the houses into cash, isn’t it sweet?

That afternoon, she left. Of course, before leaving she cast a spell; within seven weeks, these two people’s conditions would develop along the path she initially set. Selling the house and transferring, the process takes at least a month. They’re school district houses, priced nine to ten thousand per square meter, 230 square meters in total for two houses, even sold cheaply, they could fetch around two million.

Two million, plus the couple’s savings, could easily round up to three million.

Three million sounds a lot, but detailing the Song Ge couple’s sacrifices for this sick son — lost jobs, changed professions, treated his illness, covered wedding expenses, raised the child, paid the mortgage — it likely exceeds three million. 𝗳𝗿𝐞𝕖𝘄𝗲𝕓𝗻𝚘𝚟𝕖𝐥.𝚌𝕠𝕞

They are the guilty parties, avoiding imprisonment, spending money to prevent disaster, makes sense!

So Wei Dong returned to Z City without any psychological burden. But Liang Tian had some criticisms about his actions.

"This wasn’t a genuine return from their hearts. After it’s done, you’ll likely face many verbal battles, which goes against justice and morality. You will be criticized."

Wei Dong simply looked quietly towards the source of Liang Tian’s voice: "Let me ask you, do you think a family like this would willingly return it?"

"Didn’t you say you wanted to rely on yourself?"

"Yes, I said I would rely on myself, but what if I donate this money? To children with leukemia?"

Liang Tian was shocked: "You mean donate the money you managed to get?"

Wei Dong sneered: "This money, no matter how I use it, will be crushed by public opinion. Instead of that, why not donate it directly? If I donate, I’ll gain a reputation. In the future, my children and my parents relying on me can live well. Three million to sever all ties with the Wei Family, worth it! I won’t care about morality when there’s no need to waste time debating with such people. If you don’t use spiritual control at a critical moment, when will you use it?"
