Chapter 1908: The Law Cannot Become a Weapon to Protect Villains

~8 min read 1,493 words

As it turned out, the moment these two entered, they began to blame Lao Litou: "How did you raise this child? You've raised my perfectly good child to the point where she doesn't even recognize her own biological parents; you've gone too far."

"Exactly. We were even thinking of giving you some compensation, but if you're smart, old man, you'll let the child come with us immediately, otherwise we'll go to court and sue you for child trafficking."

These words made the father and daughter furious!

How shameless.

Lao Litou was the type to yield to soft tactics but not hard ones, so naturally, he wasn't going to be intimidated by a few words.

If they had spoken nicely, he would have originally supported Li Xueer in acknowledging her biological parents, but now, being threatened like this by her biological father, he changed his mind.

"Go ahead and sue. I'll be waiting. I don't believe a judge would be so muddled as to listen to everything you say, as if whatever you say goes!"

The man was stunned.

He had only been trying to scare them, never expecting that it wouldn't work.

The woman glared at him, blaming him for being unable to accomplish anything and ruining everything; a perfectly good situation had been messed up by him.

She continued to play the victim, but no matter what she said, it was useless.

The two finally revealed their true colors and began to negotiate terms.

The man said: "Fine, since you hate me so much, I won't beat around the bush. We gave birth to you, so it shouldn't be for nothing, right? We gave you your life, so you have to give us money!"

"How much do you want?" Li Xueer asked.

If spending a little money could get rid of these two people's harassment, that would be fine; she would just consider it a loss of wealth to avoid disaster.

Li Xueer had a little money on hand and wanted to pay to avoid disaster, but she hadn't expected the two of them to be so greedy.

A greedy light shone in the man's eyes as he was the first to name a price: "I won't ask for much from you, fifty million."

Fearing that people might forget her, the woman immediately added: "I'm your mother; you were born after I carried you for ten months. Whatever you give me has to be more than what you give him; I want one hundred million."

"I want one hundred million too," the man changed his tune.

"No way, if he wants one hundred million, then I must have two hundred million..."

The two of them were like they were in a competition, the price getting higher and higher as they spoke, as if the other person would just hand it over if they said it.

Lao Litou could no longer hold back: "Get out! Don't you dare think about taking a single cent from my daughter."

"Old man, don't meddle in other people's business. This is my daughter; whatever she gives me is what she should."

"Exactly."

The two who had just been fighting like gamecocks were now immediately united against an outsider, pushing Lao Litou aside.

This was their own home; could they really let them be this arrogant?

In the end, the father and daughter drove this pair of money-grubbing people out.

"Waaah..."

Although the villains had been driven away, she felt aggrieved.

Why did she have to have biological parents like these?

A pair of scoundrels.

Li Xueer had already been crying for two hours; she was very heartbroken.

Lao Litou was also looking miserable, sighing and lamenting.

He said to his daughter: "Originally, I thought that since I'm getting old, once I'm gone from this world, you wouldn't have any family left on your side. I had hoped that if your biological parents found you, you would have more relatives in the future, but seeing them like this, I really don't feel at ease handing you over to them."

Li Xueer sobbed: "Dad, you saw what they are like. If I have to acknowledge parents like that, I'd rather be dead."

The appearance of her biological parents had destroyed the last shred of hope in Li Xueer's heart.

Before they appeared, she had once fantasized about what her biological parents were like.

She had thought of many possibilities, but she had never imagined that her parents would be a pair of scoundrels.

This was something she couldn't accept no matter what, which was why she was crying so bitterly.

The things that made her sad were not over yet.

The next day.

Li Xueer's biological parents showed up again, with the same goal: to make her acknowledge them and go with them, or give them money!

Li Xueer said coldly: "I will not go with you. You abandoned me when I was small, and now that I am an adult, I don't need you."

"I have no money for you, don't even think about extorting money from me."

Seeing Li Xueer's firm attitude, the two indicated they could take a step back and would settle for thirty million each.

They argued forcefully: "You've married into a wealthy family; there is plenty of money at home, and you eat from gold bowls. What is a mere sixty million? Isn't it as simple as plucking a hair from your body?"

Li Xueer: "Don't say I don't have money; even if I did, I wouldn't give you a single cent, because you don't deserve it."

The man glared and threatened arrogantly: "You won't give us money? Then we'll go make a scene at your in-laws' house and see if you can still have a good life."

This sentence directly touched Lao Litou's reverse scale.

He could suffer grievances himself, but he could not let his daughter suffer, and now these people were going to make his daughter suffer; that was absolutely not allowed.

"You dare?"

"I certainly do!"

The man did not realize that danger was approaching; he still thought his threat had worked.

He waited smugly for his daughter to obediently hand the money over to him.

Lao Litou gritted his teeth, pointing at him with a trembling finger: "You just wait for me, I'm going to get you the money."

"You can't go."

Li Xueer grabbed her father; she knew what her father meant by those words.

There was no money; she was just afraid her father would do something foolish.

It couldn't be like this; killing someone meant paying with one's life!

But the man didn't know; the two of them even blamed their daughter for stopping Lao Litou, and the two of them, one on each side, worked in tacit coordination to grab Li Xueer.

"Don't stop me."

"Exactly, you can't be too biased. Even though he raised you, you can't give all the money to this old man and not give us a single cent. He's an old man with one foot in the grave already, how much money could he possibly spend... Mom, run!"

Lao Litou grabbed a gleaming kitchen knife and charged out from inside, radiating murderous intent!

A wise man doesn't fight when the odds are against him; the two of them reacted fast enough, turning around and running away.

"Don't run, you two animals! It's worth it for me to trade my life for both of yours anyway. Don't run! For the sake of my daughter's future peace, I'll fight you to the death!"

The two were scared out of their wits, even losing their Spring Shoes as they ran, but they ran fast enough to escape disaster!

Li Xueer grabbed her father and asked him with concern if he was alright.

She also urged her father not to be angry, saying those two were just scum and it wasn't worth throwing his life away for them.

The neighbors also came over to persuade him, and after a long time, Lao Litou's anger finally subsided a little.

The kind and innocent father and daughter thought this matter was over, but the trouble was only just beginning; it had not ended.

The next day.

A well-dressed Lüshi wearing gold-rimmed glasses came to the door, first handing over a business card to state his identity, then saying very seriously to Lao Litou: "I am representing my client to formally negotiate with you. Your chasing my clients with a knife yesterday has already posed a serious threat to their lives."

"How do you want to resolve this matter? If my clients go to court to sue you, you will spend the rest of your life in Prison and never come out."

Lao Litou was upright and unyielding, replying bluntly: "If I don't come out, then I don't come out. At my age, I can just go to Prison to retire; that's exactly what I want, and it will save my girl from worrying about me."
