Chapter 78 The Sister in the True and False Jin Wen (9)
Tong Yu's mind is in complete chaos right now.
Looking at her obedient daughter in front of her, and then at the investigation reports in her hands, she finally couldn't help but pinch her thigh hard.
A sharp pain shot through her body, instantly clearing Tong Yu's head. Her eyes blazed with fury, and she cried out, "Zhao! Cheng!"
She never imagined that her husband of nearly twenty years had done so many things behind her back.
"Damn it, if he doesn't want to live with me, can't he just divorce me?!"
"Cheating is one thing, having an illegitimate child is another, but what does it mean to exchange an illegitimate child for my own daughter?!"
The usually gentle Tong Yu suddenly erupted, shocking even Le Yan.
She stared blankly at her mother, who was cursing and yelling at the heavens, completely dumbfounded.
"...Mom? Please calm down?"
After a long silence, Le Yan cautiously spoke, trying to restrain Tong Yu, who was so angry she was about to go and fight Zhao Cheng.
Hearing her beloved eldest daughter's voice and seeing how timid her daughter looked, Tong Yu froze for a moment before quickly reverting to her usual gentle and loving demeanor.
She sat down on the edge of the bed, held her daughter's hand, calmed herself down for a moment, and then asked, "Sweetie, if Mommy and your daddy get divorced, would you choose to come with Mommy?"
"meeting!"
Le Yan nodded without hesitation.
She's a mama's girl no matter where she goes. No matter how good her father Zhao Cheng is to her, she always loves her mother who carried her for ten months and gave birth to her more.
Moreover, in this whole mess, the only one who was completely wrong was her father.
He's the culprit!
Seeing her daughter's dissatisfaction with Zhao Cheng, Tong Yu smiled slightly, put her arm around her and patted her back gently, and said leisurely, "Actually, for families like ours, it's common practice to keep the home fires burning while having mistresses fluttering outside."
Therefore, she wasn't particularly surprised or angry about Zhao Cheng's affair and keeping a mistress, since she had already prepared herself mentally before they got married.
In truth, she was actually more surprised that Zhao Cheng only kept one woman as a mistress.
She wasn't surprised by illegitimate children, but this kind of operation of exchanging an illegitimate child for a daughter born in marriage was something Tong Yu couldn't tolerate.
She simply couldn't imagine the circumstances under which Zhao Cheng made such a decision. Had he lost his mind?!
Ignoring her own image, Tong Yu cursed, "Baby, don't you dare learn to think like your dad. He's completely insane!"
After berating Zhao Cheng, Tong Yu then berated the hospital, "And that damned Ren'ai Hospital, how on earth did they manage to have so many children switched?"
They changed them all, and then they put all the replacements on the Zhao family's children.
At this moment, Tong Yu's only consolation is that the child who was switched with another child back then wasn't her precious baby.
Although Chen Xi is also her daughter, she doesn't love her eldest daughter as much as her own.
After thinking for a moment, Tong Yu looked down at Le Yan and asked, "Sweetie, about what you said about Xiao Xi wanting to let that Ms. Chen go, Mom will think about it carefully. After we finish dealing with your dad, let's go see them."
She patted Leyan's head, already having made up her mind.
Le Yan didn't ask any questions. She trusted her mother to handle these matters, so she obediently nodded and replied, "Yes, I'll listen to Mom."
Then, as if remembering something else, Le Yan frowned hesitantly, "Mom..."
She opened her mouth, then shut it up again.
It's best not to let Mom worry about Zhao Weizhou and Zhao Mufeng.
Suppressing her thoughts, Le Yan watched as her mother rummaged through the bedside table for a while, finally pulling out the marriage certificate and prenuptial agreement.
"Sweetie, wait here for me, Mommy will be right back."
Her gentle and graceful demeanor shattered into pieces. Tong Yu grabbed her things and rushed out the door, heading straight for Zhao Cheng's study.
In the study, Zhao Cheng was still flipping through the investigation report that Le Yan had given him, page by page.
Seeing that the higher-ups had thoroughly investigated everything, including the details of the woman he was keeping outside, Zhao Cheng couldn't help but feel some admiration. As expected of his daughter, she was quite capable and resourceful.
Just as he was marveling at this, Tong Yu pushed the study door open forcefully.
"You came."
After all, they had been husband and wife for nearly twenty years, and Zhao Cheng understood Tong Yu's personality quite well.
He knew that as long as his daughter told Tong Yu what had happened, it wouldn't be long before Tong Yu came looking for him.
Sitting opposite Zhao Cheng, Tong Yu, with a cold face, threw the prenuptial agreement on the table and said in a chilling voice, "Before the marriage between the Zhao and Tong families, it was agreed that the Zhao family's property would only be inherited by the children I gave birth to. Do you still agree to this agreement?"
She wouldn't have bothered talking to Zhao Cheng if it weren't for fighting for her daughter's rights.
Glancing at the agreement, Zhao Cheng said calmly, "Of course I haven't forgotten."
He had already made arrangements for the distribution of his assets. Whether it was the group's shares or the wealth accumulated by the Zhao family over generations, he would only give it to his precious son.
As for his other sons and daughters, he only guaranteed them wealth and honor, nothing more.
Tong Yu raised an eyebrow, showing no surprise. "In that case, before we divorce, you should transfer half of the Zhao Group shares under your name to Guai Bao's name."
What's the point of a verbal promise? Real money is the most valuable.
To prevent that scoundrel from having a brain fart and giving away what belongs to her daughter to someone else.
Zhao Cheng agreed without hesitation.
"I'll get it notarized tomorrow."
Whether it's given early or late, it's all for his precious daughter anyway, so it doesn't matter when it's given.
"In addition, Guaibao and Xiaoxi will come with me. They are my children, so of course they will follow me wherever I go."
After settling the Zhao family's assets, Tong Yu began discussing the children.
She doesn't intend to leave any of her daughters to Zhao Cheng.
Given Zhao Cheng's insane act of exchanging an illegitimate child for a daughter born in wedlock, she wouldn't dare leave any of her daughters in the Zhao family.
It's impossible for the eldest daughter. Although Zhao Cheng does love his eldest daughter very much, who knows if he might change his attitude one day?
The youngest daughter is even less likely to stay in the Zhao family; she would only suffer there.
Seeing Tong Yu's unwavering and resolute attitude, Zhao Cheng clenched his hands tightly, gritted his teeth, and desperately wanted to refuse Tong Yu's request.
But then he heard his eldest daughter's voice again, her resolute "Me and my mom" robbing him of the courage to refuse.
"can."
"They're all with you."
