Li Zhijun held onto Shen Wing’s arm and said, “Ning Ning, stay calm. This isn’t the time to panic.11
Shen Ning responded in distress, “Can I really stay calm? Coco is just five years old/1 her heart aching ar rhe thought of her child in danger.
“In moments like this, we need to keep our wits about us,” advised Li Zhijun as he paced around the living room.
After a while, he stopped in front of Shen Ning, his expression serious. ’’Ning Ning, there’s only one person who can help you now.”
“Who?”
“The child’s real father, Li Zhenting.”
“No/1 Shen Ning instantly stepped back, shaking her head vehemently.
Letting Li Zhenting help rescue Coco would expose everything, and she’d lose Coco forever.
“Shen Ning, think about it carefully,” Li Zhijun sighed. “I understand your concerns, but at this moment, Coco is in grave danger. Only Li Zhenting has the ability to save him. Other options, like calling the police, may nor work.”
Shen Ning clutched her head in despair. “They want to deal with me. Let them do whatever they want. As long as Coco is safe.”
Li Zhijun shook his head with a bitter smile. “Shen Ning, let me ask you, do you have one billion dollars? No, you don’t. They’re demanding one billion dollars as the first condition, and there may be more demands later. Even if you manage to ger one billion, do you think rushing in alone will ensure Coco’s safety? No, they’ll only become more ruthless. They might even capture you, and you’d be walking into a trap. These are ruthless criminals, even the police can’t handle them. Have you thought about Xiao Xiao?”
Shen Ning stood there pale and speechless.
“Ning Ning, 1 understand your dilemma. I’ve been keeping this secret for you, but now, we have to decide what’s more important: the child’s life or your custody rights. If Coco returns to the Li family mansion, he’ll be the young master of the Li family. His future will be bright, and it will be good for him. Maybe he won’t belong to you anymore, but you’ll always be his biological mother. No one can erase that blood tie,” Li Zhijun spoke with earnestness.
Shen Ning clenched her hands, torn by a fierce internal struggle.
“But even if 1 go to him now and beg, he might not be willing to save Coco. He’s extremely unfriendly towards me, and he’ll probably think I’m deceiving him/’ Shen Ning said, her eyes filled with deep helplessness and pain.
Had Li Zhenting’s cold heart ever shown any softness towards her or her child?
Li Zhijun continued pacing the room and said, “Here’s what we can do. I’ll go to him first. If I can keep Coco’s secret safe, I’ll do everything in my power. But if it’s impossible, then we ll have to reveal the truth. If, after knowing the truth, he’s still a jerk, I’ll have to seek help from the Li family’s old lady and old man. In prominent families like theirs, who wouldn’t want more children and grandchildren?”
Shen Ning nodded in silence.
They walked out together.
Li Corporation’s CEO office.
After a long day of meetings, Li Zhenting had just taken his seat when Li Zhijun walked in.
He glanced at him and asked coldly, “What are you here for?”
“Cousin, I’m in trouble, and I need your help,” Li Zhijun said urgently, a departure from his usual nonchalant demeanor, looking serious..
