Chapter 793: Really Making Trouble
He wanted to stand up, but his legs were so weak he couldn't stand at all.
Taking another look, Shi Liu was already slumped over the table; Shi Yucheng secretly thought, "This is bad, I've been tricked!"
He took out his phone and, bracing himself, pulled up Shi Youxuan's number; just as he intended to dial, the phone was snatched away, and then he knew nothing more.
……
Shi Yuke did not make the call, but instead sent a message to Shi Youxuan's number with only three words: I am dizzy.
Then she turned off her father's phone.
She also took out Shi Liu's phone and turned it off.
Finally, she took the Invitation from her father's pocket—the address and time were both on it!
"Hmph! You want to hide such a big event from me? Not a chance."
She took her father's Invitation and went out.
Crown Hotel.
The traffic in front of the door was like a flowing stream of water and horses; it was very lively.
It was the third birthday of the Sheng Family's second young master, and everyone who could make a connection took pride in receiving an Invitation from the Sheng Family.
Inside the hotel, Jian Yixin wore a bright red tight-fitting evening gown, Sheng Zerong wore a white suit, and little Moli wore a red and white patchwork suit.
The family of three's outfits were matched very well, formal yet complementing each other perfectly.
It had more of the warmth of parent-child outfits than formal wear, and more solemnity than parent-child outfits.
The family of three, all smiles, wove among the guests to exchange pleasantries, the husband and wife standing on either side with the child in the middle.
When the adults greeted others, if a guest brought a child, Moli would also take the initiative to greet the child.
Guests praised little Moli one after another for being polite, sensible, and sure to have a bright future when he grew up!
Jian Yixin was modest on the surface, saying, "Not at all, all children are like this, my Moli isn't any better than others..." but inside she felt as sweet as if she had drunk honey.
Before she could be happy for long, Shi Yuke appeared at the entrance!
How did she come?
Jian Yixin had guarded against her in every possible way, but she never expected that she still hadn't managed to stop her; she had found her way here after all.
Did she actually have an Invitation?
The Security Guard checked the Invitation and let her in; Jian Yixin subconsciously pulled her son into her arms and asked her husband with a trembling voice: "Did you invite Shi Yuke?"
"I didn't invite her, I'll go drive her away."
Just as Sheng Zerong prepared to go over, she grabbed her husband: "No, if you go over now, you'll make a scene, and it won't do us any good."
Her husband stopped in his tracks, momentarily at a loss for what to do.
If only Shi Youxuan were here right now; she is Shi Yuke's nemesis.
As long as she is here, there is no problem that cannot be solved.
But for some reason today, Shi Youxuan, who is never late, still hasn't arrived!
Before the couple could think of a solution, Shi Yuke had already strolled in.
She wore an evening gown of a similar style to Jian Yixin's, as if she were challenging her to a duel.
With every step she took, her knees felt as painful as if they were being pierced by ten thousand arrows.
But in order to maintain an elegant posture, Shi Yuke gritted her teeth and persisted.
She arrived in front of the family of three, took a beautifully packaged gift box from her bag, handed it over, and greeted Moli: "Baby, come here, see if you like the gift I brought you?"
Jian Yixin's heart was so nervous it was about to jump out.
She instinctively shielded her son behind her and urged him with a trembling voice: "Baobao, you can't go, you can't go over..."
Sheng Zerong grabbed Shi Yuke and warned her in a low voice: "Shi Yuke, I warn you not to mess around, otherwise believe it or not, I'll make you disappear in a minute?"
"Ouch!"
Shi Yuke took the opportunity to fall into his arms and coquettishly said: "Why are you being so fierce to me, I'm so scared, feel my heart, it's thumping, thumping away!"
Sheng Zerong did not expect this woman to be so thick-skinned as to suddenly throw herself into his arms.
He hurriedly tried to let go, but he still had too little experience!
Once a man is targeted by Shi Yuke, is it really that easy to let go?
Shi Yuke hugged his waist tightly with both hands; even if he let go, it was useless, she was stuck to him.
"Get lost, you shameless woman." Sheng Zerong was famously good-tempered, but he was so angered by Shi Yuke that he was about to explode.
Guests looked over one after another; those who didn't know the truth thought it was a mistress coming to crash the party!
Jian Yixin knew what was going on, so although she was angry, she didn't have a huge reaction.
But Moli, who was being tightly shielded by his mother, suddenly rushed out and kicked and punched Shi Yuke: "Get away, bad woman, get away, you are not allowed to hug my daddy."
Even the child could see it, yet Shi Yuke remained thick-skinned—neither blushing nor pale.
"Baobao, you are still small and don't understand, when you grow up..."
Before she could finish her sentence, Jian Yixin slapped her across the face with a loud "Smack!"
Jian Yixin pulled Shi Yuke away from her husband's embrace and whispered quickly in her ear: "Come with me."
But in front of everyone, she shouted: "My husband won't fall for you, so stop dreaming; I'll give you two million, leave my husband."
She would rather have Shi Yuke suspected of being her husband's mistress than have anyone know she was Moli's biological mother!
Shi Yuke was very "cooperative," following Jian Yixin upstairs and into an empty room.
She closed the door and locked it.
Jian Yixin gritted her teeth: "Shi Yuke, what are you doing here? You did this on purpose, didn't you?"
Shi Yuke said with a fake smile: "Don't be so nervous, Moli is flesh and blood from my own body; today is his third birthday, it is only natural for me as his biological mother to celebrate his birthday."
"A child's birthday is a mother's day of hardship; three years ago today, I suffered so much, so much, and only survived by a hair's breadth to give birth to him."
"Now he can only call you 'Mom,' and he ignores me, his own mother, even kicking and hitting me; it is truly so heartbreaking..." Shi Yuke said, hypocritically wiping away tears.
Everything she said was, in fact, a roundabout way of asking for money.
To her, anything could be exchanged for money.
Of course, the more difficult she made it sound, the higher the price should be.
Jian Yixin did not want to give it, because if there was a first time, there would be a second; the greedy woman before her was like a bottomless pit.
She said: "Don't forget we have an agreement!"
Shi Yuke: "Tsk tsk, you woman are truly cold-blooded. Moli and I are mother and son by blood, and I gave him his life; you want to buy off our mother-son bond for a mere ten million? Keep dreaming."
"What exactly do you want?" A flash of ruthlessness crossed Jian Yixin's eyes.
"A mere ten million, and you want to buy off our mother-son bond? A mere ten million, you rich people have such black hearts..." She did not say it directly, but kept muttering that it was too little.
Jian Yixin said: "I will give you one hundred million in a lump sum; if you come to trouble me again, don't blame me for being impolite."
"One hundred million? Tsk tsk!"
Shi Yuke made an exorbitant demand: "One final price, one billion, and I guarantee I will never appear before you again in this lifetime, how about that?"
Originally, she thought that with so much money, Jian Yixin would certainly not agree and would haggle with her, and then settling on a compromise in the end would also be very good.
But she did not expect Jian Yixin to agree particularly readily: "Fine, one billion it is; I will write the check immediately, and you leave the moment you get the money."
"Good, I will leave immediately and guarantee I will never trouble you again in the future."
Shi Yuke beamed with joy and immediately changed her expression: "With this money, I can properly treat my illness, get my leg healed, then find a good man and continue to have a few more children; children still need to be raised by one's own side from a young age to be close."
"Rest assured, I keep my word and am a person of my word..."
