Chapter 403: Chapter 401: I’ve Caused You Trouble_1

Tao Tao was suddenly at a loss for words, unable to argue back.

Indeed, the facts were as such; she simply had no defense.

But she was very clear about how much the Yu Family favored boys over girls, and if it weren’t for some other motive, they would never have come to see the child.

So...

"What exactly do you want?"

Tao Tao asked through clenched teeth, her face taut with tension.

Could it really be as everyone said, that the Yu Family wanted to take the child from her and find a man to marry into their family and adopt their household registration?

Upon realizing this, Tao Tao immediately held Little Sweetie in her arms even tighter.

She would fight with everything she had and would never let them take her child away!

Tao Tao immediately held the child even tighter.

"We don’t want anything specific, we just missed the child and wanted to see the child, and in the future, we intend to visit every day," Mrs. Yu said, a hint of malice in her smile as she moved to take the child. "Good Baby, come, let Grandma hold you."

But how could Tao Tao possibly let her hold the child? She immediately tried to run off, holding the child.

"The child is mine alone, you have no right to hold her!"

Just as Tao Tao finished speaking, Mrs. Yu suddenly started to wail like a drama queen, crying and shouting, "Oh my parents! Is there no justice in this world, no law? I’m just a grandmother who wants to hold her grandchild, how can you be so heartless as to not even let me hold her, my own granddaughter!"

"Even if you’re divorced from my son, I still have the right to visit my granddaughter!"

Mrs. Yu simply sat down on the ground, wailing as if her heart was being torn apart and her guts shattered, making it seem like she has suffered some inhumane tragedy.

It was peak office hours, and many passersby couldn’t help but stop and whisper among themselves, pointing fingers at Tao Tao.

"How can this daughter-in-law be like this, not even letting the mother-in-law see the child."

"Exactly, the one in the wheelchair over there must be her ex-husband, right? This woman must want a divorce because she looks down on him for losing his legs."

"I think so."

"How pitiable."

Some even talked while taking photos and videos.

Capturing such an exciting scene, they thought it could be good entertainment when they were bored.

Although she was the victim, she was mistaken for the aggressor. Tao Tao’s eyes reddened in an instant, and she quickly tried to explain: "I didn’t... I..."

"Stop filming!" Just at that moment, Lu Fan arrived with two security guards.

He snatched the phone from one person, deleted the just-taken videos and pictures, then glanced at Tao Tao, giving her a comforting look.

Tao Tao happened to meet his gaze, and for some reason, her heart suddenly went from panic to calm.

It seemed that as long as he was there, there would be a way to solve this matter!

Lu Fan looked coldly at Yu Heng and his mother and then gestured to the security guards beside him, "Take these two into the company to talk."

It was just too bad to make a fuss outside like this.

Once in the company, Lu Fan got straight to the point, "Tell me, what exactly do you want?"

Mrs. Yu was still playing coy: "What do you mean what do we want? We just wanted to see the child..."

"Stop right there!" Lu Fan was nobody’s fool and could clearly see their true intention. He raised his hand to interrupt, his eyes sharp and ruthless behind the gold-framed glasses, "I don’t want to hear this nonsense. I’ll ask one more time, what do you want?"

Seeing this, Mrs. Yu decided to get straight to the point, her eyes immediately revealing shrewdness and calculation, "As long as Tao Tao gives us one million, we will never bother her and the child again."

"Where would I get one million from?" Hearing this, Tao Tao gasped in shock.

One million!

Even if she sold herself and the child, that still wouldn’t be enough!

Mrs. Yu smugly suggested, already having thought of the way Tao Tao could get the money, "You don’t have it, but your friend, what’s her name, Xia Ningxing, her family is rich, isn’t it? Can’t you borrow it from her?"

Tao Tao was almost amused by the absurdity, "Are you joking? That’s one million, not one hundred. Why on earth would Xiaxia lend me so much money?"

"Aren’t you friends? Shouldn’t friends help each other out?" Mrs. Yu said matter-of-factly, then casually offered another suggestion, "If that’s really not possible, then go take out a loan. In any case, if you can’t give us one million, we will harass you every day!"

"By the way, I heard you want to be a public figure, so maybe I’ll find a couple of reporters to expose the fact you’re not letting us see the child. That should spice things up for you, don’t you think?"

Mrs. Yu threatened with a wicked smile on her face.

Although Yu Heng, sitting in his wheelchair, didn’t say a word, the corners of his eyes and brows clearly agreed.

Feeling a chill down her spine, Tao Tao felt as if she had fallen into an ice cave.

How could people be so wicked?

Lu Fan patted her shoulder reassuringly, then looked up at Mrs. Yu and said lightly, "Give us some time to think about it."

"No problem, but I hope you won’t make us wait too long. I need an answer by the day after tomorrow at the latest, otherwise don’t blame us for being impolite."

Mrs. Yu left with these harsh words, pushing Yu Heng away.

After they left, Tao Tao couldn’t help but look anxiously at Lu Fan, "Manager Lu, I don’t have that kind of money to give them, and even if I did, I definitely wouldn’t give it to them."

"When did I say we would give them anything? It’s just a stalling tactic," Lu Fan said, noting her innocent look, and couldn’t help but smile. He gestured for her to calm down, "I will find a way to resolve this for you."

"But what can be done?" Tao Tao asked, her delicate brows knitted in worry.

"First, let’s see what this is," Lu Fan said, sliding a recording pen out of his sleeve as he spoke.

This pen, which he had purchased abroad for a hefty sum, was not yet available domestically—only bulky tape recorders were.

Thus, it was likely beyond Yu Heng and his mother’s wildest dreams that their conversation had been recorded.

He even played the recording for her to listen.

Immediately after, he said, "I will get in touch with the company’s legal department and have them file a lawsuit against them for extortion. Then, the Yu mother and son’s visitation rights will be revoked. After that, they’ll have no way to trouble you anymore!"

"So, don’t worry anymore."

As he spoke, Lu Fan’s large hand moved instinctively, wanting to reach up and stroke her hair.

However, realizing halfway that it wasn’t appropriate, he clenched his fist and quietly let it drop to his side.

Tao Tao, caught up in her relief, didn’t notice his small gesture and immediately bent over to thank him sincerely,

"Thank you, Manager Lu!"

"I’m sorry for causing you trouble."

She said thank you and apologized in succession.
