You got your marriage certificate and then abandoned me? I'll feed the richest woman in the wor

A sharp howl pierced through the gaps in the heavy black iron door.

Following the gentle breeze from the manor's front courtyard, it drifted into the security monitoring room in the villa's main hall.

On a high-definition, full-color monitoring screen.

Chen Hai rolled around on the smooth marble floor tiles.

The yellowed jacket brushed against the loose dirt on the ground.

He crumpled the yellowed birth certificate in his hand into a ball and held it high.

More and more passersby gathered around.

More than a dozen mobile phones were held high, all their cameras pointed at the old scoundrel who claimed to be the "trillion-dollar tycoon's biological father".

The flash was still blinding in the early summer sun.

Chen Yuan stood in front of the monitor screen with his hands behind his back.

His posture was as upright as a pine tree, and the hem of his thin black trench coat remained perfectly still.

His dark eyes stared at the wrinkled and greasy face on the screen.

He had seen this face countless times in his dreams.

Each time, it was accompanied by the mother's desperate cries and the biting cold of the heavy snow.

The man who kicked over the last rice jar in his house for a few hundred yuan in gambling debts.

Now they've actually come to his territory and are putting on a show of filial piety.

"Mr. Chen."

Eagle pushed open the door to the monitoring room and walked in with steady steps.

"That old bastard outside is still causing trouble."

"There are more and more reporters around, and they've already started live streaming."

"Should I take some men and go around through the back door, then take care of him?"

The eagle's cry carried a strong sense of killing intent.

Those who live on the edge are best at dealing with such troubles through physical elimination.

"Need not."

Chen Yuan turned around, his cold, hard jawline remaining completely still.

His voice was so flat it sounded like he was talking about something trivial.

"I'll handle it myself."

He strode out of the monitoring room.

Walk through the luxurious yet empty hall.

We walked step by step toward the main gate of the manor.

The noise outside the gate grew louder and louder.

Seeing that the bodyguards dared not use force, Chen Hai acted even more enthusiastically.

He simply sat on the ground and slapped his thighs with both hands.

"Fellow neighbors, please be the judge!"

"Back then, I sold everything I owned to support his education, and I raised him with great care and love."

"Now that he's successful, driving luxury cars and living in a manor, he's completely forgotten about this old man!"

"This kind of unfilial son deserves to be struck by lightning!"

Whispers began to circulate among the onlookers.

The moral high ground of keyboard warriors is always the easiest to occupy.

"Oh dear, Chairman Chen is so heartless. He's still my father, after all."

"Exactly, with a net worth of hundreds of billions, even a single hair could feed this old man for several lifetimes."

"Young people these days turn their backs on you as soon as they have money; the world is going to the dogs."

Hearing these opinions that favored him.

A flicker of barely concealed elation and scheming flashed in Chen Hai's downcast, triangular eyes.

Once this fire starts, Chen Yuan will definitely have to pay him a large sum of hush money to protect the company's reputation.

Just as he was about to squeeze out two more tears.

Rumble.

The manor's two black and gold gates, each weighing several tons.

Amidst the dull hum of the motor, it slowly slid to the sides.

The noisy crowd fell silent instantly.

Everyone's gaze, including those holding up their phone cameras.

They all hurled themselves towards the center of the gate.

Chen Yuan walked out against the light, one hand in his trench coat pocket.

His tall figure cast a long shadow on the floor tiles.

It enveloped Chen Hai.

Those unfathomable black eyes swept over the surroundings from above.

A strong sense of oppression from those in power.

Like an invisible hand, it instantly gripped the throats of everyone present.

The passersby who had just been morally blackmailing each other were so frightened that they all took two steps back.

They didn't even dare to breathe loudly.

Chen Hai sat on the ground.

Looking at the man before her, who seemed as high and mighty as a god.

The first thought that flashed through my mind was not blood ties or family affection.

Instead, it was a long string of countless zeros.

His eyes darted around, and he immediately put on an expression of excitement that made him choke up.

He used both his hands and feet to get up from the ground.

He patted the dirt off his jacket, then opened his arms to pounce.

"Son! Xiao Yuan!"

"Dad has finally found you! I've missed you so much all these years!"

He howled as he tried to hug Chen Yuan's shoulders with his filthy hands.

With all the cameras watching, all it takes is for this hug to become a reality.

His money tree for the rest of his life is now firmly planted.

Just as those dirty hands were less than ten centimeters away from Chen Yuan's clothes...

Chen Yuan made a move.

Without the slightest hesitation.

She lifted her long legs, which were clad in custom-made leather shoes.

Without any mercy, he kicked Chen Hai in the stomach.

boom!

A muffled thud.

Chen Hai didn't even see Chen Yuan's movements clearly.

It felt like I'd been hit on the stomach with a heavy hammer.

He was sent flying backward at an even greater speed than when he lunged at him.

It crashed heavily onto the marble floor tiles two meters away.

"cough--"

Chen Hai clutched his stomach, feeling like a boiled shrimp in pain.

He curled up on the ground and dry heaved violently, almost vomiting bile.

A suppressed gasp rippled through the surrounding crowd.

No one expected that the president of Star Ventures would actually do such a cruel thing to his "biological father" in front of the camera.

Chen Yuan withdrew his leg.

His leather shoes landed firmly on the ground, without even disturbing the creases of his trousers.

He walked up to Chen Hai.

In his deep black eyes, there was not a trace of the warmth of a father and son reunited, only an unyielding, chilling killing intent.

"Miss me?"

Chen Yuan gave a cold laugh, his voice low and hoarse.

The empty manor gates stood like a death knell.

"New Year's Eve twenty-two years ago."

"Jianghai City experienced its heaviest snowfall of the year."

Chen Yuan's tone was as calm as if he were telling someone else's story, but every word carried a bloody weight.

"My mother suffered a heart attack and was lying on the cold concrete floor of the basement."

"A special medicine costing only two thousand yuan can save her life."

"That two thousand yuan was saved up penny by penny from washing dishes for half a year."

Chen Yuan's gaze was fixed on Chen Hai's pale face.

"What did you do?"

Chen Hai clutched his stomach, his eyes darting around in a panic.

He dared not meet the gaze of those eyes that seemed to see right through his soul.

"I...I was..."

He stammered as he tried to explain.

"You stole that two thousand dollars and gambled it all away at an underground casino."

Chen Yuan did not give him a chance to interrupt.

She tugged at your trouser leg, begging you to leave some money for medicine.

You kicked her away without even turning your head.

"The next morning, I held her cold body and cried in the basement for the entire day."

Passersby who were originally taking pictures with their phones.

Upon hearing these words, the hand holding the phone froze in mid-air.

The women who had just thought they were on the moral high ground were now blushing.

Her eyes were filled with shock and disgust for Chen Hai.

Chen Yuan's gaze swept over the crumpled copy of the birth certificate on the ground.

"After you finished handling my mother's funeral, you complained that I was a burden and got in your way."

"On a snowy night, they dumped me at the gate of the Sunshine Orphanage."

"Then one of them ran away to escape loan sharks."

Chen Yuan bent down slightly.

He placed his hands on his knees and looked directly into Chen Hai's evasive eyes.

"You threw me into the snow back then, and now you're playing the filial son/daughter role with me?"

"Are you worthy?"

Chen Hai felt a chill run down his spine from being stared at.

That little scheme to use moral blackmail to make money was shattered in the face of Chen Yuan's absolute ruthlessness.

He knew this tactic wouldn't work.

His inherent street-smart, rogue nature once again prevailed.

"So what!"

Chen Hai yelled at the top of his lungs, deciding to just give up and throw caution to the wind.

"Even if I'm a bastard, I'm still the father who gave you your life!"

"Without me, you wouldn't exist!"

"You now have trillions in assets; according to the law, you have to support me!"

"If you don't pay me, I'll die in front of your house every day! I'll make sure you, the big boss, are too ashamed to show your face!"

This kind of relentless entanglement is the most disgusting form of insidious manipulation.

Everyone present gasped.

Even the richest man would suffer greatly if he had a father who was like a persistent leech.

But Chen Yuan didn't even flinch.

He straightened up and put one hand into the pocket of his trench coat.

Chen Yuan looked down at him, his gaze more piercing than the Siberian chill: "From the moment you let go in the snow, I, Chen Yuan, have had no father in this lifetime."
