Lin Chaoyu was stunned when she heard the shouting outside.
They had demanded an exorbitant sum of five million yuan, but she did not give it to them. In the end, these two people really came to her.
Lin Chaoyu looked up at Tang Pengze with an uneasy gaze. She let out a breath and said, "It's my dad and my stepmother."
When Tang Pengze heard this, he had a rough idea of what to do. He nodded and grabbed Lin Chaoyu's hand. He said softly, "Don't be afraid."
Mr. Lin and her stepmother's voices were getting louder and louder. They could hear them clearly from upstairs.
Soon, Tang Pengze and Lin Chaoyu walked down the stairs side by side.
At the entrance of the villa, she saw Mr. Lin and her stepmother. The two of them were already impatient from waiting, and their brows were deeply furrowed.
Seeing Lin Chaoyu come out, her stepmother couldn't help but put on a crafty look and say in a derisive tone, "Having a sugar daddy is indeed awesome! You actually made us wait for so long. You've never been respectful to your elders."
As she spoke, her chin was pointed upward. Her tone was filled with dissatisfaction towards Lin Chaoyu.
Lin Chaoyu's expression turned ugly when she heard her stepmother's words. She was about to retort when Tang Pengze tightened his grip.
"You…" Lin Chaoyu was so angry that she felt suffocated. However, because of Tang Pengze, she didn't say anything.
She understood what Tang Pengze meant. Since he did not allow her to say anything else, she could only suppress her anger.
Tang Pengze narrowed his eyes and looked at the two people in front of him. He wanted to see what these two people were up to.
Seeing that Lin Chaoyu and Tang Pengze didn't retort, Mr. Lin's expression softened a little, but he was still a little dissatisfied.
"Have you forgotten what I told you before? You didn't contact me at all and even transferred your mother to another hospital. Are you avoiding me on purpose?"
Mr. Lin's expression was very dark. There was some anger in his tone.
At that time, he asked Lin Chaoyu to give him five million dollars. He thought that she would give it to him obediently. However, there was no news from her. Later on, when they went to the hospital to look for Li Hongzhu, they were told by the doctor that Li Hongzhu had been transferred to another hospital.
He waited for Lin Chaoyu but didn't see her. He couldn't wait any longer. He found Tang Pengze's house and came to find Lin Chaoyu.
He had to get these millions.
Besides, he knew Tang Pengze's identity too well. A few million was just a small sum of money to him. As long as they made a scene in front of him, he would definitely give them the money.
Mr. Lin coughed lightly a few times. He looked at Tang Pengze and felt an inexplicable sense of oppression. His fingers could not help but tighten.
Tang Pengze held Lin Chaoyu's hand with one hand and stuffed the other into his pocket. He had no expression on his face and his aura made people nervous.
"Hello, I'm Lin Chaoyu's father." Mr. Lin extended his hand and smiled with a flattering look.
Tang Pengze frowned slightly. He pulled Lin Chaoyu and took half a step back silently. His hand, which was in his pants, didn't move at all. He had no intention of shaking hands with him.
Mr. Lin's hand froze in mid-air.
He was a little angry, but his purpose today was to ask him for money. He didn't flare up and revealed an awkward smile.
He retracted his hand and said, "It wasn't easy for me to raise her up to this age. Don't you like her? Shouldn't you show some respect to us elders?"
His meaning was clear. Tang Pengze chuckled. "How much do you want? Speak."
Lin Chaoyu's hand, which was being held by him, became restless. She looked up at Tang Pengze and met his gaze. Her gaze seemed to say, "Don't give them money."
