Male Lead's Canon Fodder Wife - Chapter 850

Chapter 850: Father and Son, Ransom
Therefore, when she was forced to get married, Liu Piao made up her mind and ran away from home. When she entered the city, she only brought a little bit more than a hundred yuan and a few sets of clothes. No family, no friends, no acquaintances.

Six years later, after saving a lot of money, she decided to return to Xie Village.

When she comes back this time, she doesn’t plan to live with her father. After all, her step-brother is married and has several children at home. Not to mention that there is no place to live, her stepmother would definitely target her money.

She knew clearly that after her stepmother took away all her money, she would be forced to marry a widow or an old bachelor and her stepmother would ask a high bride price to make money.

It is better to be an unfilial daughter and bear a bad reputation than to be a fish on the chopping board. She never thought that when she was older, she would be able to find a good man, get married, and have children. Therefore, she didn’t plan to get married.

Xiao Xi has been raised by her since he was a newborn. He is like her son, and it is enough for her to have him.

Tomorrow she would go to the team leader and ask him to help her find a house. By then, she can live the life she wants. With this thought, she fell asleep with a smile.

In another room, Xiao Xi was sleeping soundly on the inside of the Kang bed, being held by her mother.

After locking the door, Xiao Li returned to his room, and saw his wife and son sleeping soundly, and a smile appeared on his face. He climbed into bed, covered them with a thin blanket, and lay down next to his wife.

Before falling asleep, he pulled them into his arms and felt the joy that he had long forgotten.

‘Mother, Father, I have a family now. Both of you can rest assured in the heavens,’ he thought as he slowly fell asleep.

At the same time, in the distant city, Gou Dan was hiding behind the wall, waiting for his father to send money. It was late at night, and he wiped the sweat from his forehead, feeling upset.

“It’s almost midnight and he hasn’t come yet. Doesn’t he care about his sons at all?” he whispered doubtfully.

Not long after, he heard a series of footsteps getting closer and closer. He lowered his hat and knelt down. Gou Dan used a pile of abandoned boxes to hide himself and saw his father approaching the agreed-upon location carrying a bag.

Judging by the size of the bag, it should be money. He couldn’t help but smile when he thought about money. With so much money, he can go to the capital and live a comfortable life.

Before coming out to see his father, he checked his surroundings to make sure no one was following his father. Then, he walked over cautiously.

He stood two meters away from his father and asked, “Have you brought any money?”

Chen Bo glanced at his son, patted the bag, and said, “The money is here. Where are Mingze and Yuze?”

“Give me the money first before you see them,” Gou Dan said.

Hearing his words, Chen Bo frowned and said, “I will give you the money after I see them.”

Gou Dan knew his father’s cunning and didn’t trust him at all. He sneered, “Chen Bo, do you think you are qualified to negotiate with me? Now, you have only two choices. Give me the money, and I will return your son to you. Or, you can collect your son’s corpse tomorrow.”

As soon as Chen Bo heard what he said, he pointed at him and said, “Chen Jiande, they are your brothers! How can you be so cruel? Do you want to ruin your future?”

“Do you think I still have a future?” Gou Dan asked him.

“Cut the nonsense and throw the money over,” he added.

There was no other way, so Chen Bo could only throw the bag at Gou Dan’s feet and say, “You got the money, now give me my sons back.”

Gou Dan opened the bag and saw that it was real money. Although he didn’t have time to count the money, he was sure that his father would not dare to lie to him. After all, his sons are still in his hands.

He closed the bag, held it, and said, “Wait here. I will send them over in twenty minutes.”

Seeing him leaving, Chen Bo said with narrowed eyes, “Jiande, you had better not lie to me. Otherwise, I will put you in prison for life.”

After hearing his harsh words, Gou Dan let out a sarcastic laugh and said, “You are such a good father.”

Although Chen Bo wanted to follow him, he didn’t dare to mess around. After all, Gou Dan is no longer the little boy who longed for his father’s love and listened to his words. He is like a bloodthirsty wolf now.

If he provokes him too much, he may do things he cannot imagine. So, he could only wait anxiously in that place.

Ten minutes later, Gou Dan arrived at the rental house. When he entered the house, he saw that his mother had packed their things.

When Gao Shun saw his son coming back with the bag, his eyes lit up and he asked, “Son, is this money?”

Putting the bag on the bed, Gou Dan asked, “Mom, do you want to see my dad one last time?”

Gao Shun was silent for a moment after hearing his son’s words. She knew that it was very risky to see that man for the last time, so it was better to leave with her son.

However, she was unwilling to leave like this. Even though she was disappointed in her husband and felt anger and hatred for his betrayal, she still loved him. What’s more, her son…
