Like I said before, I know what signed and unsigned shorts, ints, longs
and long longs are.

Please read up on that topic and stop complaining about nothing.
You may start here or anywhere else:

Then just return the negative value.

This would be a different binary representation, which breaks binary
math, which people often do with IP addresses.

Returning -107373295 on x64 would make it consistent with x86.
But people might prefer 3221234342, in which case it could be returned
as a string.
