Chapter 214 - Create A Chance
Hearing Shang Mingming's words, Mu Sifa's heart sank even further.
So that's the situation! Is he well-liked?
Have I crossed a line? It seems like my father's been deeply affected.
Mu Sifa clearly didn't intend to go easy on him, but Shang Mingming couldn't be harsh either. After all, he was Wu Dingsheng's child!
“Nevertheless, I'll make sure they leave.”
Ultimately, he didn't want Mu Sifa to be too distraught, so he uttered those words.
Yet, after saying it, he began to regret it.
Darn it! How could I be so soft-hearted? He was tormenting Xiaojie! And he made Xiaojie cry so bitterly.
“Anyway, I won't readily hand Xiaojie over to you. You'd better be aware of that.”
Then, he added a few more harsh remarks directed at Mu Sifa, but they appeared incredibly endearing. It was indeed a miniature version of Shang Cijie.
“Alright, I'll do my best until your mother's anger subsides and you accept me as your father.”
“Then, then you can handle it on your own! Regardless, I won't be lenient.”
Originally, he intended to caution Mu Sifa, but now, he was feeling uncertain.
Ugh, I dislike this so much. Why do you always have to look so handsome, making it impossible for me to resist?
Forget it, I'll leave the rest to Xiaojie! Xiaojie wouldn't be easily defeated by his estranged father, would she? I don't think so. No.
However, in the end, his expression darkened, and he hesitated because Shang Mingming sometimes felt that Shang Cijie was even more vulnerable than him and had no resistance against Mu Sifa either.
Are we really here for revenge? Isn't this akin to throwing lambs to the wolves?
Shang Mingming faced defeat, and his path to future revenge appeared uncertain.
“Mingming, come here for a moment,” Shang Cijie called out.
Shang Cijie's voice unexpectedly emerged from the bathroom door, tinged with embarrassment.
At this instant, only Shang Cijie's head popped out, his flushed face exuding charm and adorableness.
Shang Mingming curiously turned his head and inquired, “What's going on?” He replied at normal volume, catching Mu Sifa's attention.
Shang Cijie felt like sinking into the ground. He had whispered to Shang Mingming to keep it from Mu Sifa, but Liu Tie had thwarted his plan.
Despite his intelligence, Shang Cijie wondered why everything was going wrong tonight. He was on the verge of tears, especially because he had forgotten his pajamas inside, and Mu Sifa was already wearing the bathrobe.
“Did you forget your pajamas?” Shang Mingming offered to rectify the situation.
Shang Cijie covered his face, seriously contemplating smacking Shang Mingming's rear right now.
“Just wait, I'll fetch them for you.”
Shang Mingming struggled to extricate himself from Mu Sifa's embrace, but then he abruptly halted and grinned at Mu Sifa, saying, “Dad, you're being naughty. You should bring Xiaojie his pajamas!” His mischievous smile left no room for doubt.
Mu Sifa was taken aback. Initially, he was willing to fetch them, and he had remained silent when Shang Mingming had refused. Now, Shang Mingming unexpectedly offered him the chance.
Could it be that the little guy was trying to pull a prank on him? Mu Sifa couldn't help but entertain the thought.
Shang Mingming's thought process was as follows: Didn't Xiaojie mention that he wanted a sister for me to play with? This was the perfect opportunity! What was it that Uncle Dark Yan had said? Oh, right, it was about sparking a fire. Bastard Dad and Xiaojie hadn't seen each other in years.
“Don't make me change my mind!” Seeing Mu Sifa's hesitation, Shang Mingming grinned mischievously and remarked, “I'm really using my strength to trick Shang Cijie.”
“Kid, is this some kind of trap?” Mu Sifa was skeptical, given Shang Mingming's mischievous nature.
“Are you absolutely sure you won't go? Xiaojie promised me a sister to play with! If you decline, Xiaojie might end up having a child with someone else.” Shang Mingming widened his eyes and spun a web of lies with a completely serious expression on his face.
