Soft-centered strawberry cake

Chapter 131 She'll only listen to you.

Xu Ling watched Ming Weiyi walk out of the restaurant with resentment. Ming Weiyi had no intention of handing over Xu Jinghao at all.

Even worse, Mingwei also threatened Xu Ling, saying she already knew that Xu Ling was the one who set the dog on her. If Xu Ling didn't want to go to jail, she should obey her.

Mingwei also knew that Xu Ling was the one who bought the trending searches online this morning.

Now, the only person who can help her get her child back is Pei Cheng.

Xu Ling dialed Pei Cheng's number again, and the call was answered smoothly this time.

"Has Hao Hao been found?"

"Haohao is in Ming Weiyi's hands. Please, please help me get Haohao back!" Xu Ling put on a pitiful tone.

"What are you talking about!" Pei Cheng didn't believe Xu Ling's words at all. He didn't think Ming Wei was the kind of person who would do such a thing.

Xu Ling immediately panicked, "I'm telling the truth! She just met with me!"

Pei Cheng decisively hung up on Xu Ling's call. He didn't understand why Ming Weiyi would do this. To put it bluntly, it was illegal!

Pei Cheng put down his work and immediately made a phone call to Pei Ming.

North Sea
A gentle sea breeze blew by, making one feel pleasant. If only I weren't here for work.

Standing on the beach, Pei Ming, dressed in a vacation-style outfit, leisurely gazed at the distant scenery.

Pei Cheng called, and he thought Pei Cheng was calling to ask him about the resort hotel.

"Hey, what are you doing?"

"Haohao has been missing for a day and a night. We can't find him anywhere." Pei Cheng laid the groundwork by saying this, so that Pei Ming would have a better understanding of the situation.

"And then what? I'm in Beihai, you don't think I did it, do you?"

Pei Ming found Pei Cheng rather amusing; they'd come to him looking for their child.

“It was Weiwei who did it; the child is in her hands.”

Pei Ming was taken aback. "Did I hear you wrong, or are you mistaken?"

"Anyway, the child's affairs are in your hands. She will only listen to you."

Since Ming Weiyi was capable of such a thing, Pei Cheng realized that Ming Weiyi was not someone to be trifled with, so there was no need for him to personally go to Ming Weiyi and risk offending her.

Anyway, the child is in Ming Weiyi's hands, which is the same as finding him. Ming Weiyi won't do anything to his son.

Pei Ming truly lived up to the saying; he was left bewildered and lost in the wind.

How could Ming Weiyi do something so outrageous when he had only been away from her side for two days?

C城

The black sedan drove smoothly on the road. Ming Wei was sitting in the back seat, waiting for Pei Cheng or Pei Ming to call her.

Sure enough, Pei Ming called.

She answered the phone very calmly, "Hey, do you miss me?"

"Yes, besides missing you, I'm also wondering why you would do something so outrageous?"

Ming Wei remained completely calm; instead, she burst out laughing. "Hahaha...Are you questioning me?"

Pei Ming sighed, "Weiwei, this is illegal."

"Xu Ling just wants her son to go back to the Pei family, right? Is it illegal for me to bring her son home to meet his grandparents and father? I just forgot to tell her..."

Pei Ming's mind raced, and a smile played on his lips. "Now that you mention it, it doesn't seem like there's anything seriously wrong..."

“Shouldn’t Xu Jinghao call me aunt? What’s wrong with aunt taking him home? Is that wrong?” Ming Wei’s argument in front of Pei Ming was both forceful and unreasonable. Pei Ming smiled and nodded, “That’s right, that’s right…”

Emboldened by Pei Ming's assurance that she was right, Ming Wei became even more reckless.

"Besides, Xu Ling and Xu Jinghao were extorting the Pei family. Plus, she set her dog on people. She's a lawbreaker, so what's wrong with me teaching her a lesson?"

Pei Ming noticed the dog attack and his expression suddenly changed. "What did you say?"

"Just focus on your work in Beihai and don't worry about things at home." Ming Wei could also tell from Pei Ming's tone that Pei Ming now knew that the person who released the dog was Xu Ling.

Does Pei Cheng know about this?

"He doesn't know yet, and even if he did, what could he do? Would he be willing to treat his son like I do?"

Mingwei's question was difficult for Pei Ming to answer. Indeed, Pei Cheng was not him. Pei Cheng would definitely be soft-hearted towards his own son, and thus soft-hearted towards Xu Ling.

"You want to use Xu Jinghao to threaten Xu Ling and make her leave, right?"

“She can stay or not, and she can face legal trouble if she wants. But I can’t guarantee that her son will end up in the Golden Triangle.”

Ming Wei spoke in a relaxed tone, knowing that Pei Ming understood her.

"You're just being stubborn. But as a mother, Xu Ling wouldn't dare gamble with your child."

"I'm confident I can handle her; she won't dare gamble with me."

Pei Ming's tone softened again, "Then how should I reply to Pei Cheng?"

Whether Xu Ling leaves or not is up to him.

As Ming Wei spoke, a look of disgust appeared in her eyes. If Pei Cheng hadn't been so inactive, Xu Ling wouldn't have caused so much trouble!
The thought of her good sister-in-law, Tong Ziyan, almost being poisoned by Xu Ling while pregnant made her want to slap Xu Ling a few times.

It was the same restaurant as before. Xu Ling remained seated inside for two hours, waiting for Pei Cheng to bring her good news.

Pei Cheng called as she had hoped, and she answered the phone immediately, as if she had grasped a lifeline.

"Pei Cheng, how is it? Am I going to be able to see Hao Hao?"

"Then let me ask you a question." Pei Cheng's tone was calm; he knew that Ming Weiyi was helping him this time.

"what is the problem?"

"Do you choose to take the money and leave with Hao Hao, or do you choose to stay in City C and fight Pei Ming and his wife to the death?"

Xu Ling felt a pang of panic; it seemed Pei Cheng really hadn't managed to win over Ming Weiyi.

She asked tentatively, "What do you mean?"

“I just tried to persuade Weiwei, and even went to Pei Ming, but it was no use. Neither of them intends to let you go. You know, the Ming family is not to be trifled with either.”

Pei Cheng deliberately spoke in a serious tone, implying that whether Xu Ling listened to his advice or not was up to her.

Xu Ling refused to accept this outcome and continued to struggle, saying, "Haohao is your son! Pei Ming, as Haohao's uncle, wouldn't do anything to Haohao!"

“If it were before, I might have stopped him, but if you don’t want Ziyan’s baby to live, then I don’t care what happens to Haohao.”

Pei Cheng knew that his words were very important and would definitely frighten Xu Ling.

Xu Ling knew that Pei Cheng would definitely find out about this, but when Pei Cheng actually said it out loud, she still felt a chill run down her spine.

At this moment, Xu Ling knew there was no point in struggling anymore. "What do you want me to do?"

“I don’t want Hao Hao to have a vicious mother with a criminal record. That would truly ruin his life. I want you to leave City C forever.”

Xu Ling never imagined that her mother would be so vicious; those words truly struck a chord with her.
