After repair works were performed overnight, communications to and from the island were restored. Chu Yichen called home.
The Chu family residence.
Chu Zhenting and Bai Dong were explaining the matter of Baobao’s adoption. This was because Eldest Sister was very unhappy.
Chu Yan said furiously, “Zhenting, I almost lost my life because of you, because I wanted the Chu family to continue to shine. But now, you’ve actually allowed Yichen to adopt a daughter to taint the Chu family’s bloodline. How are you going to face your deceased parents and the ancestors of the Chu family?”
Chu Zhenting’s expression turned ugly from the scolding. “It’s just adopting a granddaughter. How can she possibly taint the Chu family’s bloodline? Besides, the Chu family can afford to raise her!”
“If it were as simple as adoption, I wouldn’t have come. I have a statement drafted by a lawyer here. You’ll have to sign it!”
Chu Zhenting took it and read it, looking most unhappy.
Chu Yan continued in an arrogant tone. “I’m doing this for the sake of the Chu family. This document guarantees that the child will have no inheritance rights and will not be a threat to the Chu family’s assets!”
Chu Zhenting placed the document down heavily. “The child is still so young. Don’t you think it’s too early to be thinking about this?”
Chu Yan refused to give in. “The Chu family has so many businesses, it’s good to be prepared. If you want me to accept this child, you’ll have to sign it!” Chu Zhenting was on the verge of losing his temper.
Bai Dong tugged at her husband’s hand and said with a smile. “Eldest Sister, you know that Yichen now has the final say in the family. Your document is useless!”
Chu Yan had been so overcome by anger that she had actually forgotten about this. A cold glint flashed across her eyes. “I heard that Yichen has gone to the island for a vacation. Communication channels on the island have gone down. I’m not sure what happened, but I think it’s better to be prepared!”
Bai Dong looked nervous at once. She had been so focused on Baobao recently that she had forgotten to care about her son.
“Hubby, what do we do now?” The fear of almost losing her son all those years ago hit her, and her hands trembled slightly.
Chu Zhenting patted her hand comfortingly. “It’s just the storm interrupting communications. It’s not a big deal. Our family has been through all kinds of tough times. Don’t worry!”
When Chu Yan heard her brother’s words, she felt uncomfortable, especially when he was talking about the tough times. She felt her chest tighten. It was clearly because of her that the Chu family had everything they had now. Now, he was treating her like this. It was really like killing a donkey after it was out of use!
Just as they were about to start an argument, a servant hurried over. “Madam, a call from Young Master!”
Bai Dong hurriedly went to answer the call.
As for Chu Yan, she subconsciously tightened her grip on the chair.
“Son, are you alright? I heard that it has been storming. I was so worried!” Chu Yichen glanced at the tightly shut bathroom door and said in a quiet voice, “All’s good. Everything is fine. I’ll probably be back tomorrow!”
“That’s good, that’s good!”
“Where’s the child? Let me talk to her!” He felt that something was missing when he didn’t hear Baobao’s cute voice.
“The child went to see her God-daddy. Your aunt is here,” Bai Dong whispered.
Chu Yichen was uncomfortable with the fact that the child had a God-daddy, but it was more important to settle his aunt’s matter first. “Is she looking for trouble again?”
“She wants your father to sign a document to exclude Baobao from any inheritance rights!”
Bai Dong also felt that her sister-in-law had gone overboard this time. The child was still young, so there was no need to be worried about these things. Besides, the Chu family had enough money, so he didn’t mind giving her a little.
“Tell her that this is my business and she doesn’t have to worry about it!” Chu
Yichen said in a bad tone.
“Alright, I’ll tell her. Take care where you are!” Bai Dong hung up the phone and walked to Chu Yan’s side with a smile.
“Yichen called. He said that all’s fine on his end and he’ll be home tomorrow. I told him about the child. He said that he’ll handle the matter personally and told us not to worry!”
Chu Yan gritted her teeth when she saw that her suggestion had been rejected..
