An unexpected event revealed to him that Chi Cheng, far away in Hua Country, was actually his biological son.

President Mayer was overjoyed to the point of ecstasy.

He tried every means to coax Chi Cheng into coming back for a marriage alliance.

Facing off against the President of a country, Chi Cheng’s presence was not diminished in the least.

"The only reason I came back is for two things." Chi Cheng stared at him unblinkingly, "What really happened between you and my mom back then."

At the mention of Chi’s mother, President Mayer was momentarily stunned, then a hint of guilt flashed in his eyes.

"The things from back then... are already in the past, can we not bring them up? Son, I know it’s difficult for you to accept me right now, but please give me a chance..."

Chi Cheng: "If you want me to accept you, then first, tell me clearly and honestly what happened back then."

Upon hearing this, President Mayer was silent for a moment, his gaze seemed to gradually fall into recollection, "Back then... there was no way around it when your mother and I separated. I was eager to establish myself in this country, although your mother was also from a noble family, it was in name only, without real power..."

To him, these had no meaning at all.

Her family really couldn’t help him at all.

Chi Cheng chuckled coolly, "So you abandoned her."

"I had no choice, which man doesn’t have ambitions, do you not have ambitions? Those who say they don’t, just haven’t climbed to my level yet! If you had been me back then, would you give up supreme power for a woman?"

President Mayer was somewhat agitated.

He candidly told Chi Cheng all his most genuine thoughts.

Because in his eyes, no man can resist the lure of power.

Chi Cheng’s expression remained calm and indifferent throughout, "So, you never really loved her?"

"I loved her!" President Mayer’s eyes were slightly red, "I loved her very much. When I heard she later married a businessman in Hua Country, I had insomnia for a long time... Every time I think of her, I feel a pang in my chest. I really loved her, but I was at the mercy of things. Son, maybe you don’t understand now, but someday you will. This society, this world makes you act against your will!"

Chi Cheng sneered, repeating, "So, you never really loved her."

This time, it changed from a question to a statement.

President Mayer looked at Chi Cheng, momentarily choked with emotion.

"For the sake of these powers, you abandoned your lover." Chi Cheng lowered his gaze, fiddling with the watch on his wrist, "Truly realistic, and quite laughable." 𝗳𝐫𝚎𝗲𝚠𝚎𝗯𝕟𝐨𝘃𝚎𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝗺

"Son, I’ve worked hard all these years and paved the way for you, haven’t I?" President Mayer stood up, walked around the desk, and came to Chi Cheng, "As long as you agree to marry the woman I’ve arranged for you, this country, the future is yours! You represent power, represent everything! As long as you’re willing, as long as you agree, all this will be yours in the future!"

Chi Cheng continued to smile, a gentle and refined smile, but his eyes were full of mockery, "This is the second thing I wanted to say, my woman can only be An Ran, and no one else."

President Mayer looked utterly shocked.

Which man could resist such temptation?

But what did Chi Cheng say?

He only wants An Ran?!

Give up an entire country for a woman?
