Transmigration: On the Gossip Front-Chapter 950 - 951 Toxic Fatherly Love 83

Zhang Yu’s childbirth news, of course, Wu Min and the others knew about it. When they found out she’d given birth to another son, they were full of envy.

Feng Min felt furious just thinking about it, "Why is her life so good? She has given birth to two sons."

"Isn’t she supposed to be destined to give birth to daughters?"

"What do you think? She gave birth to a son. Should we send her a gift?" Wu Hao had been pondering over this ever since he heard the news.

Feng Min, still venting her dissatisfaction nearby, immediately flared up upon hearing Wu Hao’s suggestion.

"Are you out of your mind? How could you even think that?"

"Do you have a close relationship with her?"

"Did she tell you she was giving birth?"

"When she got married, or had her first son, did she notify you?"

"Even when she got pregnant again, did she let you know?"

"She didn’t say anything." Feng Min flat-out refused to offer money. "If you have too much money, go ahead and give her the gift."

"I won’t do it. I still remember, back then, she obviously had money, but she refused to help out and save our son."

"That shows how cold-hearted she really is."

"As cold-hearted as can be."

"Giving her money is worse than spending it ourselves."

"Wu Min, do you think we should give something?" Feng Min knew Wu Hao wouldn’t listen to her, so she turned to ask Wu Min.

Wu Min, watching his parents bickering over such a trivial matter, felt a growing headache.

"You ask me about this, but I really don’t know what to say."

"Dad, if you want to send it, then send it. If you don’t want to send it, then don’t."

"It’s entirely up to you." Wu Min finally pushed the decision back to them.

Feng Min was unhappy that Wu Min didn’t agree with her, her face dropping.

Feeling emboldened, Wu Min looked at Feng Min’s sulking face, "Mom, if you’re not happy, you can leave."

"Stop showing me that unhappy face. It makes me mad just looking at it." Wu Min directly told Feng Min to get lost.

Feng Min, angered, really wanted to accuse Wu Min of being ungrateful, but in the end, she could only shut up and throw a look at Wu Hao.

Wu Hao, also dissatisfied with Feng Min’s behavior earlier, simply ignored her.

With no one stepping in to help smooth things over, Feng Min had no choice but to back down on her own, "Fine, isn’t it just that I’m angry with your dad."

"If your dad gives her a gift, what will Zhang Yu think? She’ll probably believe it’s us trying to curry favor."

Feng Min, with her sharp tongue, managed to convince Wu Min, "Dad, I think Mom makes a lot of sense. You shouldn’t go see her."

"Otherwise, they’ll think we’re trying to butter them up."

"Even if she’s rich, so what? Her husband works at a research institute, and she’s running a studio. They have no connection to Young Master Chu’s industry."

"On the other hand, if she finds out I’ve had Young Master Chu’s child and decides to cozy up to us, what should we do?"

Wu Hao thought about it and agreed, so he no longer insisted, "Alright, then let’s not visit her."

"That girl is pretty heartless anyway." Wu Hao couldn’t help but feel reluctant about parting with the money, thinking that it would be better spent on himself.

"By the way, Young Master Chu said he would definitely marry you after the baby is born, right?" Wu Hao seemed thrilled.

Just the thought of becoming the father-in-law of a wealthy person made him feel beyond ecstatic.

"He didn’t directly say that. What he said was that after I give birth, he would give me a surprise."

Wu Hao, upon hearing this, kept nodding, "It definitely means marriage."

"Otherwise, why would he promise you a big surprise?" Wu Hao began imagining how they could negotiate with the Chu Family for a generous betrothal gift.

Feng Min kept nodding, "Exactly, exactly. While medical checks might make mistakes, as long as the baby is a boy, things will be secured."

The three huddled together, discussing how much they could ask from the Chu Family for the betrothal gift, completely unaware of the housekeeper observing them coldly from a hidden spot, carefully memorizing their words.

When the Chu Family later learned about the betrothal gift Wu Min’s family wanted, Lady Chu immediately flew off the handle and lashed out at her son, "Even if she gives birth to a son, this woman is absolutely forbidden from entering the family."

"She really thinks she’s somebody special just because she gave birth to a son."

"I don’t care what you’ve been up to outside, but as far as I’m concerned, the daughter-in-law I recognize will only ever be Ah Fen." Lady Chu poked her son’s forehead relentlessly.

If it weren’t for the sudden death of her eldest son, who had been groomed as their heir, the future of the Chu Family wouldn’t have fallen onto Young Master Chu’s shoulders.

The Chu parents were well aware of their youngest son’s abilities. He was excellent at eating, drinking, and playing, but hoping for him to handle serious business? Impossible.

All they could do was find a capable daughter-in-law for him, and since their son was already a lost cause, their hope had turned to their grandson.

Lady Chu didn’t expect her daughter-in-law to have complications during childbirth, rendering her unable to conceive again, and so they came up with this plan.

But what they didn’t anticipate was that it would give the other party ideas they shouldn’t have, all due to their son’s faults.

Young Master Chu knew Wu Min’s greed for money made her irrational, but he never expected her entire family to be so brainless.

"Mom, Mom, don’t worry, don’t worry. I definitely won’t change wives." Young Master Chu wasn’t foolish. Though he was the family’s sole heir, his parents wouldn’t let him inherit the family business out of fear he’d ruin it.

Young Master Chu himself wasn’t willing to take over either. If he made a mess of things and drove the company into the ground, how could he continue living the life of indulgence?

Lady Chu let out a hum of approval. While her son lacked ability, he at least obeyed orders. Even though his wife had now taken over the company, he didn’t stir up trouble.

"For now, continue supporting them, but once the baby is born, kick them out." Lady Chu was ruthless.

"Also, the child will have absolutely no ties to them. Make sure the agreement is signed."

"From now on, don’t have any contact with that family." Lady Chu worried that the ambitious Wu family might cozy up to them even more.

Young Master Chu had no objections. If his mom hadn’t chosen Wu Min, he would’ve never approached her, as she wasn’t even close to his type.

"Mom, why did you choose her in the first place?" Young Master Chu truly didn’t understand why his family had picked Wu Min; he didn’t see anything remarkable about her.

"Wu Min’s elder sister is Zhang Yu." Lady Chu replied indifferently. "Her husband is Feng Ji."

"What?!" Young Master Chu was stunned. He never knew Wu Min was Zhang Yu’s younger sister. "She’s never mentioned it before."

"They don’t get along." Lady Chu felt genuine regret now. "Originally, I thought after the baby was born, we could slowly mend the relationship with Zhang Yu’s family."

"Our Chu Family could form an alliance with them, expanding both their network and ours."

Even though Young Master Chu only cared about having fun and wasn’t interested in such affairs, he knew how significant Feng Ji’s reputation was. freeweɓnovēl.coɱ

"Wu Min has such incredible relatives, huh?" He really hadn’t known.

"Yes, but they—ugh, forget it. The entire plan has failed now."

Lady Chu had intended to spread news of Zhang Yu’s childbirth, hoping it might help repair their relationship.

But the other party’s arrogance and idiocy got in the way, leaving Lady Chu exasperated as to what to do next.
