Wu Pingting watched Nuannuan and Chi Yang kiss and could not help but feel envious. Men disgusted her, but after witnessing this scene, she felt a glimmer of hope for the future.

Putting aside the unhappy things in her mind, she went to her uncle’s place to keep joking around with him and the others.

“Uncle, Wu Zongxu was complaining about how you treated him badly. I thought he was a heartless dog for saying that, but now that I see you treating Sister Yunyun like this, I can say with certainty that he was definitely mistreated! If he saw you right now, he’d probably die again from anger.”

Wu Jingzhong knew about how Wu Zongxu had harmed him, Wu Pingting, and the entire Wu family. His face immediately went cold.

“I adopted him because your grandfather had always wanted me to get married and have children. But I knew that the only woman for me was Lil Yun’s mother. I couldn’t marry anyone else. Since I couldn’t find her, I didn’t want to marry anyone else, so I chose to adopt a child. That way, the Wu family could have more children. Even if I didn’t get married and have kids, I was told that doing that would help your father get married and have children of his own. As for me, my plan was to find Lil Yun’s mother and marry her.

“Well, he wasn’t my biological child. I have to admit that I didn’t pay him much attention. I adopted him, but I didn’t really put in much effort to nurture him as my son. This led to his heart getting all twisted up. I didn’t realize at the time that the future would soon be my fault.

“Wu Zongxu learned that he was adopted at a young age, so he was very sensitive. I thought that the sensitivity would make him grateful to the Wu family and realize that he wasn’t my biological son. He should have been satisfied by such a good life compared to the one he would’ve otherwise had… Who would’ve thought I’d raise such a useless boy?

“A year ago, after he graduated from university, he was meant to start work at one of my branch companies. At the time, he came to me and said that he hoped to be able to work in the headquarters of the group company. He asked me to tell your father about it. Because I knew what he was thinking about, I sternly refused.

“I told him that the Wu group belonged to your father. Your father was the chairman of the group, and the group would one day be handed over to Zongyang. I told him that even my biological son would not be qualified to covet the Wu Group, let alone him, an adopted son of the Wu family.

“When I adopted him, I was only obligated to raise him until he was 18 years old. Once he reached adulthood, even if I was his adoptive father, I could sever our relations.h.i.+p any time I wanted. I hoped that he would be a good person and not be greedy. I told him that if I found out that he had ill intentions toward the Wu family, I would deal with him immediately.

“He kowtowed and promised me that he would never have anything against the Wu family. He said that he wanted to work at the headquarters because he wanted more opportunities to learn and get ahead in life. He also said that since I adopted him, I probably wanted to look after him well. So, he asked to borrow 500 million from me and said that he would open his own company.

“I had already seen a hint of his ill intentions. How could I give him the money to open a company? Not only did I not give him money, but I also sent some people to keep an eye on him. If he messed with the branch office, I would immediately disown him and kick him out of the Wu family. After all, your father had arranged for him to be the deputy general manager of a listed branch, so it would have been easy for him to misappropriate some of the branch’s funds.

“But to my surprise, he didn’t.”
