Eternal Love: The Billionaire's Relentless Pursuit-Chapter 757 - 750: Dead End (Part 4)
Because she ate the noodles made by Wu Chengzu, Wu Jingjing soon fell asleep. She was in a deep sleep, so deep that she wouldn’t wake up no matter what.
The bowl of noodles, now completely cold, was still on the table. Wu Chengzu picked up the bowl and dumped the remaining noodles into the trash can. By the sink, he washed the dishes while watching the young couple tightly bound with ropes.
"Are you married?" Wu Chengzu appeared easygoing, as if he were engaging in casual conversation with them.
The man nodded, indicating they were married, and looked pleadingly at Wu Chengzu, hoping he would release them.
Wu Chengzu automatically ignored the man’s pleading eyes and continued to ask, "Do you plan to have children?"
Such behavior from Wu Chengzu made the couple feel even more terrified. Despite being a kidnapper, he was casually chatting and smiling with them, which in itself was a horrifying thing.
Since there was no answer, Wu Chengzu put down the bowl, fixed his eyes on them, and asked again, "Do you plan to have children?"
The man’s tears began to fall, and he reluctantly continued to nod.
"I see." With someone responding to him, Wu Chengzu continued with his task. The thugs had previously made a mess in the kitchen, and Wu Chengzu, somewhat of a cleanliness freak, couldn’t stand the dirt and disorder. Cleaning seemed to have become a way for him to relieve stress.
So, Wu Chengzu rolled up his sleeves and began diligently cleaning the kitchen, continuing to chat with them as he worked.
"If you’re going to have children, have a boy. It’s not that I prefer boys over girls, but if you have a daughter, you’ll have to worry about many things." Wu Chengzu’s gaze was gentle as he wiped the sink with a sponge, "You’ll worry about early romances, about her being mistreated by men, about whom she will marry, whether her in-laws will be good, if they’ll mistreat her, how many children she’ll have, who will help her take care of them, if her husband will be successful, if he can support a family, if he’ll be responsible..."
Wu Chengzu laughed at himself when he spoke to this point, "I now regret having a daughter, I shouldn’t have let my daughter be born. She’s a child of misfortune, never knew any happiness, following a father like me, she’s been suffering all along."
The young couple listened to Wu Chengzu, and gradually their tears dried up because at that moment, they strangely no longer feared Wu Chengzu. Instead, they felt he was just a father worried about his daughter.
After wiping the sink, Wu Chengzu began tackling the range hood, which was a disaster zone, very difficult to clean.
"If I had more time, I wouldn’t worry about my daughter’s future. No matter how the future turns out, as long as I’m behind her, no one can bully my daughter." At this point, Wu Chengzu’s expression darkened, and a bitter smile appeared at the corner of his mouth, "But I don’t have time. I can’t be there for her. How will she walk her future path, what will she do in the face of setbacks, I have no answers. With a father like me who has committed such crimes, her future life may be tough."
Wu Chengzu closed his eyes for a moment, then raised his head to look at the couple, "That’s why, if you’re going to have children, have a boy. It’s less worry!"
Wu Chengzu sincerely looked at the couple; this was his heartfelt advice.
Finally, after tidying up the kitchen, Wu Chengzu had transformed the once greasy and chaotic kitchen into a clean and tidy space, and dawn was breaking.
He walked to the young couple’s side and loosened their bindings. Not knowing what Wu Chengzu was going to do, the man instinctively shielded his wife behind him.
After freeing them, Wu Chengzu walked out of the kitchen, "You can go now, remember to call the police."
