Latiao knew he was still too weak.
However, the troubles of his family had just begun. There were many things he had to do.
His mother was constantly experiencing bad luck, his grandfather and grandmother were too old, and he was too young…
His family was either old or weak. It would not stand a chance against the approaching storm.
Therefore, they needed to cling onto a big strong leg!
“Latiao, I’ll be leaving. Be a good boy and don’t go anywhere.”
Latiao was still the innocent, adorable kid when he raised his head.
He nodded. His eyes were sparkling as he spoke, “Mm… I got it, sister.”
The nurse fondled Latiao and said, “You’re so cute…”
The nurse left. Latiao tidied his disheveled hair and let out a sigh.
Mo Yangyang’s phone rang during lunchtime. She left with her phone.
“Hello…” Mo Yangyang did not have a pleasant look.
“Have you made up your mind?”
Mo Yangyang responded calmly, “I’m sorry, there’s no way I’m selling my place. Please don’t call me again.”
The Changyue Group in Jinchuan was planning to buy the land where Mo Yangyang’s restaurant was located. They had approached Mo Yangyang a month ago.
However, the price they had offered was too low, less than half of the market price. Mo Yangyang and the owners of the shops nearby did not agree to the offers.
The person on the phone did not give up. He said, “From what I know, you are an unmarried single mother. It’s not easy to raise a kid on your own. I understand that. If you think the price is too low, I can add another twenty thousand…”
Mo Yangyang chuckled, “I won’t sell it even if you add two million to it. A piece of advice: stop acting like you’re rich and bossy when you don’t have the financial resources to back you up! You’re only embarrassing yourself.”
Mo Yangyang returned to the ward after hanging up the call. She noticed Latiao had already put down his chopsticks.
“Did you finish eating?”
Latiao nodded, “Mm, I’m done.”
“I’ll go do the plates. Don’t go anywhere.”
Latiao smiled and nodded, “Got it!”
The smile on Latiao’s face vanished after Mo Yangyang left to clean the plates.
The Changyue Group is already scheming to acquire our restaurant!
He remembered that the Changyue Group did not make their move until later in his previous life.
He could not afford to wait any longer. His family would be done for if he waited until the Changyue Group reached their claws out.
In the afternoon, the hospital was heavily guarded, with security all around. A few luxurious cars were parked at the entrance.
Any outsider within ten meters of the building was being asked to leave!
Latiao was holding an Iron Man figurine. He told the security, “Uncle, I’m looking for my father. He’s inside.”
“Kid, what’s your father’s name?”
“My father is…” Latiao tried his best to remember, but he soon shook his head and said, “I forgot his name.”
He pointed at a Bently and said, “I came in that car.”
The security did not have the slightest doubt. The kid was so good-looking, there was no chance he was from an ordinary family. He had such a noble bearing at such a young age.
“I’ll bring you in.”
“I can go in myself. Thank you, uncle. I won’t disturb you.”
No one would ever doubt the words of an obedient and polite kid.
Latiao successfully entered the administration building. Someone finally spotted him after he had made his way to the floor where the CEO’s office was.
A few bodyguards surrounded him. “Whose kid is this? Why is he running around on his own?”
Latiao pointed at the person behind them with an innocent look, “I’m his kid.”
The bodyguards turned around.
Holy crap, it was Professor Xie!
