Rebirth: My Dear Little Wife Is So Scheming-Chapter 517 - Unacknowledged

Chapter 517 -517: Unacknowledged
“What the hell is going on? Ayuan, how did Uncle Shang become your wife’s father?”
“Jesus, what is this plot twist?”
“This cliché trick is straight from the book. Definitely Shang Feng had a sweetheart in the countryside back in the day, then he left her behind when he went back to the city, and now he suddenly realizes his daughter is an outstanding physician, famous and successful. Of course, he wants to acknowledge her now!”
An Zhiyuan’s mouth twitched. Who the heck was this guy? He had hit the nail on the head, and it was actually the truth.
“My God! So he’s the heartless Chen Shimei.”

“Should I even acknowledge this kind of father?”
“Don’t even ask. If it were me, I’d smack him. Where was he when I suffered in my childhood? Now that I’ve made something of myself, you come crawling out to enjoy my success. Fuck off.”
“But he is your biological father after all.”
“Biological my ass. Why wasn’t he there for the first twenty years? He didn’t come looking for me then, but now he does? Isn’t that just because Doctor Bai has made it big, famous and successful, and married well? Can’t you see what he’s up to?”
“Up to what?”
“Taking advantage, obviously!”
“Does the Shang Family even need to take this advantage?”
“What about the Shang Family? If they’re not after some advantage, why come out now? If I were Shang Feng and truly wanted to make amends, I’d discreetly give gifts, hoping for my daughter’s happiness, instead of ostentatiously like this. This isn’t gift giving; it’s blatantly forcing someone to acknowledge kin.”
Bai Xiao was amused.
She glanced over! It was the guy who had been the most agitated earlier, laughing at what’s-his-beard or something like that. She hadn’t really remembered his name, but now she did. He was undoubtedly the perfect candidate for a detective and gossip journalist with his wild imagination and gossip almost hitting the truth; probably no one could match that.
As soon as Shang Kaiwen heard this conversation, she couldn’t maintain her composure, as she hadn’t yet reached that level of finesse.
But she managed to keep her cool, trying to take Bai Xiao’s hand, “Everything you all are saying is speculation. In fact, due to some historical reasons, we as the younger generation can’t be sure either. But the fact that Bai Xiao is my biological sister is beyond doubt. I hope everyone can speak kindly and give us and Bai Xiao the space to deal with this ourselves. Thank you.” Her sincerity was so genuine it made it difficult for anyone to say anything else.
Turning to Bai Xiao, with tears welling up in her eyes, that look of excitement and happiness at seeing kin. Bai Xiao sighed! There was a reason she couldn’t compete with Shang Kaiwen, not in her past life nor in this one. With her ability to win people over, Bai Xiao couldn’t hope to catch up.
This was talent. This was the gap.
All she could do was to give people the cold shoulder, but compared to Kaiwen’s passionate and emotional expression, the gap was just too big.
“Miss Shang, please don’t say that. I have my own parents. I’ve lived just fine without my biological parents for the past twenty years. Besides, my real mom has been dead for many years. If you insist on this narrative, I can only say that this is an unverifiable matter. I certainly don’t feel like Miss Shang and I are family. Miss Shang is eloquent and gracefully beautiful, how could we possibly be related?
Plus, even if we were family, I did pretty well without a father for twenty years and I don’t need one now. There’s no law that says I must acknowledge him. So Mr. Shang, please don’t disturb my life. I also don’t want to interfere with yours, lest people think you have ulterior motives with me, which wouldn’t be good for your reputation. Thank you! I won’t see you out.”
That was a clear declaration of refusal.
