Fu Lei's body quaked before he could stabilize himself on both legs. "Listen here, Fu Pei!" he roared in full fury. "How could you allow an outsider to attack your family member?"
With pressed lips, Fu Pei lowered his gaze and glanced at Fu Ting. When the teenager's usually menacing glare met the little girl's clear and bright eyes, his dark pupils flashed gently.
He touched his ear stud and grinned. "Did Little Fu Ting say anything wrong?" he replied in an almost muted tone.
He looked casual and apathetic; it was as if he was mocking Fu Lei.
How could they say they were his family members so shamelessly when they had the intention to accuse him of something he had not done? How was that his family member?
Once their self-interest was threatened, they changed their face immediately, and their faces were as huge as how Pangu 1broke the sky!
Tongue-tied Fu Lei felt his pride was threatened.
Fu Ting placed both hands behind her, and her toes pointed on the floor playfully. "If this matter got serious, I don't think your pork factory could operate anymore. Who'd like to eat pork harnessed by the bad guys? Ah well, just eat them yourself!"
The Fu family's expressions changed in an instant. Fu Ting was pleased at the fact that they could no longer act pompously.
Fang Yuzhi forced out a smile and said, "Little girl, we were acting impulsively just now, and we didn't think it through. Pei is my son...how could I frame him? This is just a misunderstanding. Just pretend that we never said anything and don't report us, alright?"
Fu Ting bared her hands. "If you knew how to act earlier, we wouldn't have to go through such an awful experience. I'm still angry from before, so maybe I'll need you darlings to apologize to my father."
"Ridiculous. In what world does a father apologize to his son?" Fu Lei was furious.
Fu Ting turned around. "Well, let's uncover the truth through the newspaper then..." she spoke as she played along.
"Please," Fang Yuzhi stopped her, "we'll apologize. Apologize!" Fang Yuzhi almost shattered her clenched teeth with a furious face. She grabbed Fu Lei, who had an equally contorted face, as they genuinely admitted their mistake.
"Pei, please forgive us. The things your father and mother spoke earlier were thoughtless. Please forgive us."
Fu Pei's Adam's apple bobbed as his gaze was far from pleased or happy. Instead, he felt a little uneasy.
He knew his parents apologized only because it was the only way they could protect the Fu family's prosperity.
This made him feel disgusted, and at the same time, he was ashamed that Fu Ting protected him.
After Fu Chenyi and Fu Huihui witnessed how their parents compromised, they endured the humiliation to apologize.
Fu Lei could no longer bear with it and turned to leave, but he was called by Fu Ting. "Wait, we're not done yet. Terrible old man, don't leave so quickly!"
Fu Lei inhaled deeply as he suppressed his anger. "What else do you want?"
At that moment, a man dressed in a suit and leather shoes came to them as he held a stack of documents.
The Fu family was confused, and Fu Pei was curious. He wanted to know the tricks this little girl had in store.
Fu Ting smiled and said, "Let me introduce you to my father's defense attorney, Lawyer Wang."
Fu Pei was amazed. Since when did she have the money to afford a defense lawyer?
Fu Ting snapped a finger. "This is the case. After my investigation, Mr. and Mrs. Fu were irresponsible in my father's upbringing as they never fulfilled their parental duties. They even kicked him out in his high school years, and that's ruthless.
"It's morally unacceptable; the same goes to the legislation. We're legal citizens, hence we have to live by the laws. So, Mr. Fu Lei, the total alimony after a rough estimation is around a hundred and fifty thousand yuan. Would you like to transfer via credit or pay by cash?"
