The Lin family was ruthless. If she really gave it to them this time, there would be a next time, and there would only be an endless cycle.
Moreover, her mother had already been transferred to another hospital, so they definitely hadn't found out where her mother was currently at. Otherwise, they wouldn't have been driven into a corner by Tang Pengze.
Now, they could no longer threaten her with her mother. This used to be her weakness, but now, there was no need for her to compromise.
Tang Pengze rubbed Lin Chaoyu's head and looked at the two people in front of him. He said softly, "Name your price."
"Don't give them money." Lin Chaoyu tugged on the corner of Tang Pengze's shirt and sneered. "You can only give them zero or countless times. They are all bottomless pits."
Before she could finish her sentence, Mr. Lin's expression darkened. He glared at Lin Chaoyu. "You ingrate. Why won't you give us money? I'm your father!"
Lin Chaoyu was defiant. "How are you worthy of being my father?"
Mr. Lin's eyes seemed to be burning with anger. He glared fiercely at Lin Chaoyu and scolded, "Then the blood flowing in your bones is mine. This is the truth!"
The corners of Lin Chaoyu's mouth were filled with mockery. She raised her eyebrows slightly and swept her gaze over Mr. Lin. "Which part of you deserves that title? The Lin Feifei that you dote on the most at home is your good daughter, right?"
Ever since she was young, Lin Chaoyu had the lowest status in the family. Anyone could bully her, and Lin Feifei abused her even more atrociously.
But Mr. Lin ignored all of this.
She had finally grown up, but they were still extorting money from her. They wouldn't stop until they squeezed her dry.
Mr. Lin was rendered speechless by her words. He was angry, but he couldn't vent it.
He sucked in a few breaths of cold air. He raised his right hand up high and aimed it at Lin Chaoyu's face. He was about to slap her.
The crisp sound of the slap did not ring out. Tang Pengze held Mr. Lin's wrist tightly and frowned slightly. His expression was cold.
His woman getting hurt in front of him
was something he couldn't stand.
Tang Pengze suddenly let go. Mr. Lin did not react in time and staggered a few steps back. Before he could speak, he heard Tang Pengze's voice.
"How much money do you want to cut ties with Lin Chaoyu?" His voice was as cold as ice, and his gaze was cold.
Mr. Lin thought that he had agreed to pay. He swallowed the words that he was about to curse out. "We only want ten million dollars."
Lin Chaoyu's eyes widened as she looked at Mr. Lin in disbelief.
He asked for ten million yuan right off the bat. How greedy.
However, when Tang Pengze heard his words, he did not react much. He just smiled and nodded while rubbing his eyebrows.
A moment later, he took out a gun and pointed it at Mr. Lin's forehead. He raised his eyebrows slightly.
"Do you want more?" He raised his voice lightly and asked in a threatening tone.
He originally didn't plan on using this method. He only wanted to take the money and let them leave. However, he didn't expect him to bully Lin Chaoyu in front of him.
All of a sudden, he did not feel like giving him the money anymore.
Mr. Lin did not expect Tang Pengze to use such a method. He was so frightened that his forehead was covered in cold sweat. He immediately raised his hands and said while trembling, "President Tang… be careful. Don't misfire! This money… we don't want it anymore!"
Tang Pengze didn't let go of the matter. Instead, he got someone to send over two contracts to sever father-daughter ties. After flipping through them, he got Mr. Lin and Lin Chaoyu to sign them.
Then, he chased them out.
