Chapter 435: Chapter 435: Refusal Chapter 435: Chapter 435: Refusal “Bai Xiao! I know you have grievances. You blame your father for not coming to look for you all these years, but your father had his difficulties. At that time, your mother kept it a secret and never told me about you. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have ignored you for so many years.
“I know you harbor resentment and hatred. Now that I know you are my biological daughter, I will certainly make amends, I have already sought people to arrange for your transfer back to Capital City. I will never let you suffer there again. How can my daughter be in such a dangerous place? I will not stand by and ignore you.” Shang Feng thought that Bai Xiao, knowing she has a father like him, would be thrilled, as after all, the Shang Family is considered a high-ranking family, wealthy and powerful.
Bai Xiao was just a child who grew up in an ordinary family, powerless and without influence, especially now that she has been transferred here, evidently to make things difficult for her. Shouldn’t she grasp this lifesaver tightly at this moment?
He could rescue Bai Xiao from this terrible plight, but, of course, the condition was that Bai Xiao must recognize him as her father. Otherwise, why would he go through all this effort?
“I will never acknowledge you as my father. So you can save it,” Bai Xiao coldly refused.
She was not afraid of danger; here, she had her beloved, her teammates with whom she had faced life and death. The so-called hail of bullets was no longer important to her.
Anywhere was fine to live, as long as there was love. Any place could be idyllic and pleasant.
“Bai Xiao, why are you so stubborn? You know that if you acknowledge me as your father, I can apply to your superiors for you to come to Capital City to take care of me. Otherwise, you will have to continue here, which, to put it nicely, is sacrificing for the country, or to put it unpleasantly, is cannon fodder!” Shang Feng gritted his teeth on the other end of the phone; he didn’t expect this girl to be completely impervious to influence.
Could someone really not fear death?
“Mr. Shang, I really don’t like what you’re saying, but you are a stranger to me. Say whatever you like. Since you say I’m cannon fodder, then I’m happy to be cannon fodder. Now, we have nothing more to discuss.” Bai Xiao was about to hang up the phone, as Shang Feng’s intent to manipulate her was evident, even using recognizing his daughter as a bargaining chip. There was no saving the Shang Family.
“Bai Xiao, do you really not understand what hanging up this phone means? As your father, I can be a great help to you. Don’t you realize that? Not to mention anything else, I really am your father by blood. Coming back to your father’s side will greatly benefit your future career. Isn’t that worth recognizing me as your father?” Shang Feng truly didn’t understand how this girl’s mind worked. Had she been influenced by those village fools over the years and become dull?
Recognizing him as her father would be so beneficial. She was ignoring such simple logic—could a normal person do that?
“Who wants to recognize, let them recognize. What does your development have to do with me? Sorry, we have nothing to do with each other.”
Bai Xiao hung up the phone immediately. There was nothing to discuss with someone like Monk Feng. People like him probably think of nothing but personal gain. Blinded by greed, even familial bonds could be used as a ladder to climb higher. She was not here to be a ladder for the Shang Family; she was here to bring them down.
