The Forsaken's Revenge

Chapter 228 Excessive Demands!


"Are you telling me you'll only be satisfied when our daughter ends up with nothing?" Xu Fang roared.

"You..." Wei Wufeng was so enraged he was speechless.

Which father in the world doesn't want his daughter to have a good life? This woman is being ridiculous!

"Enough, Mom..."

"I've already explained this to you! Chen Zheng has nothing to do with Miss Yuan. It's all just a misunderstanding!" Wei Zixuan interjected, frowning with a dark expression. "Can't you just stop meddling in our affairs?"

She had already gone over this with her mother, but it was useless no matter what she said.

"You call this a misunderstanding?" Xu Fang retorted. "You're far too easy to fool. Let me tell you, a leopard can't change its spots. If you forgive him so easily this time, he'll just do something even more outrageous next time! This sort of thing can't be overlooked, not even once!"

She wore a worried expression, acting as if she were deeply concerned for Wei Zixuan.

In her mind, Chen Zheng must have tricked her daughter somehow. He must have used some tactic to smooth things over for now. This is absolutely unacceptable! Even if my daughter chooses to forgive him, I certainly won't let this go.

Just then, the door opened and a tall figure walked in—it was Chen Zheng, of course.

"Chen Zheng, look at this mess you've made!" Chen Jianguo yelled, slamming his hand on the table the moment he saw his grandson.

"Grandpa, please don't be angry," Chen Zheng said soothingly. He then nodded politely to Wei Wufeng and Xu Fang. "Dad, Mom... what brings you two here?"

"You have the nerve to ask why we're here?" Xu Fang glared, her eyes wide. She shoved her phone forward. "Take a good look and tell me why we're here! If we hadn't shown up, who knows how badly you would have bullied our daughter! Your grandfather is here today, so you better explain yourself. Who is that woman in the video, what is your relationship with her, and what happened between you two?"

"Mom..."

"That's Mr. Yuan's daughter," Chen Zheng patiently explained. "I was just helping him out by acting in a scene. There's nothing else between us."

"Mr. Yuan's daughter? The tycoon of Yunshan?"

Upon hearing this, Xu Fang was stunned for a moment. But this information didn't make her believe Chen Zheng. Instead, it only made her angrier.

"So that's it, Chen Zheng..." Xu Fang seethed. "Of all the things you could learn, you decide to become some rich woman's plaything? When you were a nobody, we entrusted Zi Xuan to you! Now that you've hooked up with a tycoon's daughter, you plan to just kick our daughter to the curb? Is that something a human being would do?"

Xu Fang burst into tears.

"Mom, what are you saying? Chen Zheng isn't that kind of person at all!"

"Stop siding with an outsider against your own family!" Xu Fang snapped, cutting Wei Zixuan off. She glared at Chen Zheng, slowly shaking her head. "Things have already come to this, so there's nothing more to be said. Since you're already involved with the tycoon's daughter, you two shouldn't drag each other down any longer! I say you two should go get divorced today!"

As soon as she finished, everyone in the room was stunned.

"A divorce, just like that?" Chen Jianguo asked anxiously, addressing Xu Fang.

I'm still waiting to hold my great-grandson! If this young couple splits up, how will I ever get a great-grandchild?

"That's enough," Wei Wufeng said, frowning deeply as he reached out to pull his wife back. "Haven't you caused enough trouble? This is between the kids. We elders shouldn't be meddling like this!"

This woman is so dramatic! It's just a video, and she's blowing it up into an immediate divorce! Marriage is a serious commitment. How can it be ended so recklessly?

"Mom," Wei Zixuan began, biting her lower lip. She took Chen Zheng's arm, her voice firm with resolve. "You're right about one thing. This is between the two of us, so you shouldn't be meddling. And I am *not* getting a divorce!"

Seeing this, Xu Fang was dumbfounded. She never expected both her husband and her daughter to side with Chen Zheng.

Especially Zi Xuan... Didn't she always dislike him? Why does she seem so completely devoted to him now?

"Daughter, you need to think this through carefully," Xu Fang said bitterly. "If you let this go so easily, you'll regret this decision one day!"

"Mom," Chen Zheng interjected, looking at his in-laws with a serious expression. "In front of Grandpa and Dad today, I give you my word. I will love only Wei Zixuan for the rest of my life. That will never change."

In his view, such a promise made in front of both families carried significant weight.

"And what good is a promise?" Xu Fang snorted. "If you could trust a man's word, pigs would fly. Look at all the divorced couples out there. I bet every single one of those men said the same thing."

She paused, her eyes gleaming. "Fine. You want us to believe you? Then hand over the Royal Hotel and put it in our Zi Xuan's name. I also hear you're the Chen Family heir now. Transfer half of your family's assets to her as well. That would be a start. Otherwise, you're just bluffing."

With that, Xu Fang laid out her conditions for everyone to hear.

Everyone was dumbfounded.

Good lord. Demanding the Royal Hotel and half of the Chen Family's assets? That was beyond outrageous.

Wei Wufeng's frown deepened. "Can you stop this nonsense?" he hissed. "That's hundreds of millions in assets! You can't just give it away!"

Chen Jianguo's brow furrowed. This woman is getting greedy. The family fortune was built over generations. How could we just hand it over?

"Mom, that's not necessary. You're asking for too much," Wei Zixuan added, her own expression turning grim. Her mother's demands were completely unreasonable.

"Fine. I agree to your conditions," Chen Zheng said suddenly. "I'll have the Royal Hotel transferred to Zi Xuan's name immediately. As for the Chen Family assets, my grandfather is in charge of those, so I don't have the authority right now. But Zi Xuan is my wife. In the future, all of my personal assets will be shared with her. We can even get that notarized ahead of time," he explained.
