And indeed, things turned out just as Shuzhen had anticipated.
With grand ambitions of having his son acknowledge his heritage and sending off the old lady with filial piety and a traditional burial, Dai Weiguo truly did not give up.
However, things took an unexpected turn for him; he was utterly bewildered when Shuzhen unexpectedly disclosed everything to the child without reservation.
A good scolding from his own son made him realize clearly: his son harbored a deep-seated prejudice against him, and saying more would only bring humiliation upon himself. Seeing as the old lady's burial was the next day, he didn't have time for a gradual approach. Therefore, extraordinary times called for extraordinary measures!
Though this tactic wasn't very upright, as the saying goes, whether black or white, a cat that catches mice is a good cat.
By the same logic, any cunning tactic that achieves its purpose is a brilliant strategy!
