"dad."

Shen Jiao forced back her tears, took Fu Suier's hand, and walked into the main hall calmly.

This sound broke the eerie silence.

Fu Lingnan adjusted his expression slightly and glanced at Fu Jiaming inconspicuously. Fu Jiaming understood and looked at Shen Jiao with pretended affection, but Shen Jiao looked at him with disgust and ignored him.

"..." Fu Jiaming was secretly angry, but then he looked at Fu Sui'er with a loving face, "Er'er, are you okay? Dad was almost worried to death when he heard that you were missing. Come here and let Dad see you."

Fu Sui'er lowered his eyes, pulled Shen Jiao's hand and hid behind him.

Fu Jiaming's smile paused, "What's wrong?"

Fu Lingnan also noticed that Fu Sui'er was in a bad mood, and waved at her with a smile, "Sui'er, come! Come to grandpa?"

Fu Suier hesitated for a moment, took Shen Jiao's hand and shook his head, "Grandpa, I'll stay here with Mom."

Shen Jiao was slightly stunned, and was both surprised and surprised at Fu Suier's protection.

Ever since the child became sensible, he has been disgusted with her preaching. Before today, Shen Jiao always thought that compared to her, a strict mother, Fu Suier preferred her grandfather and father who indulged her in everything.

Fu Jiaming frowned and slowly stood up. "Suier, didn't you hold Dad's hand yesterday and say you didn't want to go to Xiangying? Now that Grandpa and Dad are here to take you back to the Fu family, aren't you happy?"

Shen Jiao sneered and hid Fu Sui'er behind her. "Fu Jiaming, I'm warning you, Sui'er is my daughter. She won't go back to the Fu family with you."

"..." Fu Jiaming's face darkened, and he looked at Shen Jiao expressionlessly, "Ah Jiao, don't involve the child in our affairs. You will make Er'er very painful. Do you really want Er'er to be without a father or a mother?"

Shen Jiao's jaw was tense. She looked like her biological mother, bright and dignified. Time had not taken away her beauty, but instead precipitated an elegance that she did not have when she was young.

Was this the man she had chosen without hesitation, despite her father's objections? In her youth, she naively believed she had married for love, but she had never imagined that time would be so cruel. Her love was shattered by the wind, and the boy who was willing to jump into the sea for her was ultimately buried in memories thinner than paper.

Shen Jiao grabbed Fu Sui'er's hand and retorted coldly, "Fu Jiaming, it's clearly your fault, how dare you put the blame on me? You cheated on me, and that's fine, but you even had an illegitimate child? When you were enjoying the happiness of family life with that bastard outside, did you ever think about the fact that you have a daughter at home?"

"!" Fu Jiaming's mind went blank for a moment, "You..."

"Me what?" Shen Jiao smiled, "You are so confident because you are sure that I dare not reveal your true face in front of Er Er, but I will not let you have your wish today."

Shen Jiao lowered her eyes and looked at Fu Sui'er behind her, her eyes full of apology, "I'm sorry Er'er, mom still couldn't protect you."

Fu Sui'er's face was filled with shock, his whole body was shaking, he looked at Fu Jiaming in despair, tears welled up in his eyes but he stubbornly refused to let them fall.

"Mom, you lied to me, didn't you?"

Shen Jiao couldn't bear it, but still shook her head and stated firmly, "No. It's true."

"Waaaaaaaa." Fu Suer suddenly broke down and burst into tears.

Fu Jiaming was slapped in the face and turned pale with anger. "Shen Jiao! If you have anything to say, come to me. Why torture the child like this?"

"Enough!" Fu Lingnan closed his eyes and interrupted their quarrel in a deep voice.

"Mr. Shen, it's true that our Fu family was wrong in this matter. I bear the blame for not educating this wicked child well. I'm making this clear today: Sui'er will always be the treasure of our Fu family. This wicked child has no right to take a single cent from our Fu family after doing something like this. With just a nod from you, Mr. Shen, I will immediately transfer all of this wicked child's assets to Sui'er. This way, I hope he won't cause any trouble in the future."

"Dad!" Fu Lingnan didn't mention any asset transfer before coming. Fu Jiaming was shocked. Those were hundreds of millions of assets. Could they just give them away for free?

Shen Jiao's expression changed slightly. She didn't expect that the Fu family would be willing to spend so much money to rebuild this marriage. But the more this was the case, the less likely she would agree.

She and Fu Jiaming have already torn their faces apart, and it is impossible to reconcile. Why should they force themselves to live together if they have no feelings for each other?

As for the excuse of doing it for the sake of the child, it was just to deceive Sui'er. If Fu Jiaming really cared about the child, he would just play with women. How could he have a son?

Businessmen seek profit, politicians seek power, and the Fu family is a family of politics and business, so naturally they seek both fame and fortune.

The Fu family is willing to give up hundreds of millions of assets, which means that he is plotting more than hundreds of millions.

Shen Jiao maintained her dignity and declined in a deep voice, "Thank you for your kindness, Mr. Fu, but please don't underestimate our Shen family. The little money under Fu Jiaming's name is not enough for my daughter's dowry. I will not sell my daughter."

Fu Lingnan narrowed his eyes and looked at Shen Jiao with a gloomy look. Why didn't he realize before that his wife was so tough?

In fact, Fu Jiaming was reluctant to give up those assets, but Shen Jiao's words made him even more embarrassed. So, he couldn't help but break down his defense, "Shen Jiao, stop pretending here. Do you think you are innocent? Why didn't you tell me that you were fooling around with other men behind my back?"

Shen Jiao glanced at Fu Sui'er, her whole body shaking with anger, "Fu Jiaming, stop slandering me."

Fu Jiaming sneered, "What? Are you feeling guilty?"

"okay!"

Fu Lingnan stood up and turned to look at Shen Zhuang, "Mr. Shen, you are the head of the Shen family, please express your opinion."

Shen Zhuang had been playing dumb the whole time. Upon hearing this, he shook his head in embarrassment, "What else can I say? My daughter said she wanted to marry me, so I followed her. Now that she doesn't want to, I naturally follow her. I've already told you that you've never been interested in that bastard from your family."

"You..." Fu Lingnan sneered and nodded, "Okay, the Shen family is really tough. I'm sorry for bothering you today. Jiaming, take Sui'er with you, let's go."

Shen Jiao's expression changed slightly, and she held Fu Sui'er in her arms, "No! Sui'er is my daughter, she won't go anywhere!"

Since the relationship had already been torn apart, Fu Lingnan spoke without hesitation, "It seems that I still need to remind you that Sui'er's surname is Fu, and she is the daughter of my Fu family."

Shen Jiao's heart sank, and she looked at Shen Zhuang with pleading eyes.

Fu Lingnan was calm and composed. "Don't worry, niece Shen. Our Fu family is not as prestigious as your Shen family. Even illegitimate children can enter the family. The Fu family is not short of this little money. Of course, we will raise our own daughter ourselves."

Shen Guiling looked at Fu Lingnan in astonishment. Although he watched the whole scene from beginning to end, he had always stayed out of it. It was not until Fu Lingnan used him to imply the Shen family that Shen Guiling took a serious look at this old man.

Shen Zhuang gently patted the back of Shen Guiling's hand and stood up slowly. "What does Mr. Fu mean by this?"

Fu Lingnan, "Mr. Shen, you're really taking advantage of your power to bully others. Your family caused a scandal about an illegitimate child, and you forced the Yao family to acknowledge it. Now Jiaming has admitted his mistake, but you're still not giving in. Only the Zhou officials are allowed to set fires, but the common people are not allowed to light lamps. It seems that Mr. Shen thinks that because the Shen family is so powerful, he can ignore us, his old allies."

Shen Zhuang frowned slightly. Is this old fox Fu Lingnan trying to fan the flames?

Fu Lingnan said, "Mr. Shen, I still say the same thing. The Fu family only recognizes Sui'er. Although Jiaming did something wrong, you have no right to deprive him of his fatherhood. I originally came here to resolve the misunderstanding between the two families, but since my niece Shen is not interested, I can't force it."

Then, he looked at Fu Sui'er with a helpless and regretful look on his face, "Er'er, go back with grandpa. Your aunt and brother know that you have been wronged in the Shen family. They are so distressed."

Fu Suier's eyes were filled with tears. She looked at Fu Lingnan and then at Shen Jiao.

What should she do? She really didn't know how to choose. Grandpa, Dad, and Mom were obviously the most important people to her, so why did it turn out like this?

Fu Suier grabbed Shen Jiao's hand and burst into tears, "Mom... please..."

"boom--"

Just then, a loud noise suddenly came from the hall.

Everyone was caught off guard and stunned on the spot.

After reacting, I saw a girl in a white dress crawling out from the cabinet under the antique display case.
