Chapter 898: 898: Exchange

Seeing how arrogant Mother Bai was, Cheng Shuyu thought to herself, ‘Why on earth is she so arrogant? Even if you’re rich, you are only a small family in the Imperial City. Plus, you only have this money because of your stepson who is working for Di Jingxuan. My daughter is the princess of Country B!! A true princess with pure, royal blood!’

After hearing what Di Anran had told her, Cheng Shuyu had already started imagining how when everything here was settled and she was accepted by her father in Country B, Cheng Shuyu would also become the queen of Country B as well.

With these fantasies in mind, she no longer cared about the son and daughter whom she had with Jing Xuean.

Cheng Shuyu softened her tone and said, “I just want to take a look at Xiao Lu. You might not take me as your in-law, but I just want to meet my daughter. Will that be that alright?”

“No way.” Mother Bai rejected her.

“It’s either you bring her home or you don’t get to see her at all.”

“I’ll give you a million.” Cheng Shuyu blurted out of the blue.

“I’ll give you a million. Just let me see her and give me a set of the drugs that you have been feeding her.”

Mother Bai thought it was hilarious as she laughed elegantly, “It wouldn’t work even if you gave me a hundred billion.”

Cheng Shuyu was furious and she was about to go crazy, but she forced herself to calm down as she said, “I need something from my daughter. Once I get that, I will not disturb your family ever again. But now, my daughter is mad at me for not saving her, and she wouldn’t give it to me. If you can give me a set of the drugs, I will be able to give you one million after that. You can just feed it to her right here, I won’t take it away.”

Mother Bai immediately understood what was happening.

She gave a judgemental smile and said, “Wow, Cheng Shuyu…. I have thought too highly of you. For wealth, you gave up on your son. For status, you gave up on your husband, and now, for more money, you are willing to give up on your daughter. I thought you were at least a good mother who loved her daughter. When the young miss of the Di family was at your house, you were willing to offend the Zhan family for your daughter, but now, what is the reward that would make you destroy your own daughter? What is it that you need from her?”

Mother Bai’s words humiliated Cheng Shuyu. She was enraged as her face turned red, “This is between me and my daughter. There’s nothing for you here. If you really cared for my daughter, you should be treating her much better!”

“Huh?!” Mother Bai laughed, “You don’t even care about your own daughter, why should I? That b*tch? I just want her dead! That b*tch ruined our name!”

Although she had already decided to give up on Jing Lu, Cheng Shuyu still wouldn’t allow anyone to talk bad about her daughter.

She believed that if she had any other choice, she wouldn’t have given up on Jing Lu.

“The deal that I mentioned, do you agree with it? If you don’t, I’ll leave immediately. If you do, give us some space.”

Anran mentioned to her that the reason why the Bai family had tortured her was mainly that they wanted Jing Lu to die in the most painful way.

As for the Bai family, they might look posh and luxurious, but most of their power lay in the hands of Bai Zhen. Mother Bai might look like a rich, wealthy woman, but she actually had nothing.

Mother Bai obviously knew what Cheng Shuyu was up to, which was why she said, “Ten million. Take it or leave it.”
