Defrosting The Cold Young Master-Chapter 452 - 453: I Agree

Chapter 452: Chapter 453: I Agree

But she had destroyed it all.

Now, speaking of benefiting from Lingyue was out of the question, not being retaliated against by Lingyue in the future would be something to thank God for.

Her face looked ashen, her chest heaving with regret, almost to the point of vomiting blood.

Seeing Xie Wennan’s regretful and wretched state, Senior Master Xiang had achieved his goal.

Ignoring Xie Wennan, he turned his attention to Ling Fangzhou: “Start the paperwork today, Lingyue will change his name to Xiang Yue, from then on, he’ll have nothing to do with you!”

“No!” Ling Fangzhou trembled as he spat out the word “No”, kneeling down at the feet of Senior Xiang, his forehead slamming against the floor. “… Dad, I will call you dad on behalf of Yueyue, I beg you! I won’t ask for any benefits from Xiao Yue, nor will I let others exploit him. But I beg you, Dad, don’t let Xiao Yue sever ties with me!”

His forehead stayed pressed against the floor as he choked out: “Dad, I know, I’ve failed Yueyue. Yueyue saved my life, but I didn’t take good care of Yueyue’s child. I’m a jerk, I deserve to die. But, Dad, I love Xiao Yue. I would rather die than lose Xiao Yue. Dad, I beg you, I plead with you…”

He kept knocking his forehead hard against the floor.

He knew that if Senior Xiang forcibly took the boy, he would not be able to prevail.

Xiao Yue blamed him.

Once Xiao Yue agreed, from then on, his son would be a stranger to him, having no link to him.

He couldn’t accept it.

He loved his wife, and deeply loved their only son.

He admitted, he had neglected Xiao Yue. But it wasn’t because he didn’t care enough for Xiao Yue, it was due to his type of work.

The nature of his job meant he wasn’t able to devote enough time and energy to Xiao Yue’s upbringing.

Remembering everything Xiao Yue had been through was more painful than having his heart torn out.

He knew he had let Xiao Yue down.

But there was no way to make amends.

Entrusting Xiao Yue to the Gu Family was already a last resort for him.

To sever ties with Xiao Yue would be worse than having his heart ripped out, it would be better for him to just die.

He couldn’t accept it.

He couldn’t lose Xiao Yue.

If someone insisted on taking him away, he would have to be shot dead first.

He repeatedly banged his forehead against the floor.

Soon, the floor was stained red with his blood.

Xie Wennan also knelt by his side, crying so much she nearly collapsed into a heap.

Senior Master Xiang closed his eyes, making a gesture to his subordinates.

Getting the hint, they came over and helped Ling Fangzhou up from the floor.

Ling Fangzhou, a weak researcher, obviously couldn’t resist the strength of Senior Master Xiang’s bodyguards and was forced to stand up.

Senior Master Xiang looked at him, finally speaking after a long time: “If you don’t want to sever ties with Xiao Yue, I can agree to that, but Xiao Yue must change his surname to Xiang. From now on, he can be called Xiang Lingyue. Either way, you still have a son. Don’t hope that Lingyue will carry on your bloodline. Whether Lingyue has the surname Xiang or Ling, it doesn’t affect you much. Even if he changes his surname to Xiang, you are still his father. However, he must be raised by me.”

If possible, Ling Fangzhou would certainly desire for his wife and son to bear his surname.

But currently, he doesn’t have the ability to choose.

If he can prevent Lingyue from severing his ties with him, he’ll already be very grateful.

It doesn’t matter if the son he and Yueyue have together takes Yueyue’s surname.

After all, his surname is still embedded in his son’s name.

He was delighted that his surname could be placed next to Yueyue’s surname.

So, he nodded in agreement: “Alright, Dad, I agree with you.”
