Chapter 942: Disgusted By Each Other

“So, of course, I have to find some means to restrain some people,” Wei Keli explained with a faint smile, “Since I want to leave the Wei family and start my own business, I have to make all kinds of preparations. How can I start my own business without any preparations? Who would invest in me with peace of mind?”

“I definitely have some tricks up my sleeves. No matter what, I can’t let the people who invested in me suffer losses. I can’t let the Yuan family suffer losses,” Wei Keli said.

However, Yuan Keqing didn’t quite believe Wei Keli’s words no matter how much she thought about it.

“I have some evidence and actively created more using my own resources. Wei Zhiqian knew about it and felt that if those families knew that I have such evidence, it would destroy the harmony between the families.” Wei Keli curled his lips and seemingly looked down on Wei Zhiqian’s cowardice. “The reason why my Grandpa and Granny are angry is also because they were taught that the clan is the first priority since young. They absolutely can’t allow any possibility of harming the clan’s interests.”

“And my actions are undoubtedly detrimental to the clan’s interests.” Wei Keli spoke as if it were true. “That’s why my Grandpa and Granny had such a big reaction after seeing the video.”

How could Wei Keli believe Yuan Keqing with just a few words?

“Can you show it to me?” Yuan Keqing asked. “I don’t mean anything else, and it’s not that I don’t believe you. I’m just curious, whose evidence did you film?”

Wei Keli calmly said in a gentle voice, “Sorry, it’s not that that I don’t believe you, too. It’s just that the fewer people who know about it, the better.”

The two even said the same thing. They felt disgusted by each other.

Yuan Keqing assured that she didn’t have any intention of not believing Wei Keli, but she wanted to see what the video was about; she wanted to verify it with her own eyes.

Wei Keli sneered silently. She clearly did not trust him.

And what about Yuan Keqing?

The fact that he repeated her words back to her disgusted her.

If he believed her, why couldn’t he tell her?

He was clearly worried that she would leak the evidence.

If he trusted her enough, he would even trust her to protect the secret well.

Yuan Keqing thought that either Wei Keli didn’t believe her, or he didn’t dare to show her the video.

That means the content of the video wasn’t what he said at all.

“Brother Keqing, believe me. I definitely won’t reveal a single bit,” Yuan Keqing said.

Unexpectedly, Wei Keli suddenly pulled a long face. “Keqing, don’t tell me you don’t believe me?”

“Do you think there’s something wrong, so you insist on watching the video?” Wei Keli frowned and asked.

“This is my work. What’s the use of showing it to you?” Wei Keli said unhappily. “You can’t help.”

“I’ve always thought that you’re sensible and considerate. Why have you become so insensible in this matter?” Wei Keli pursed his lips. “Don’t interfere in my work.”

“Especially since it’s none of your business. Why do you ask so much? No matter how much you ask, you won’t be able to help. It’s just a waste of the time for me to explain to you.”

Wei Keli felt that he should not blindly coax women. Especially not Yuan Keqing.

He always coaxed her, and the more times he did so, the more it seemed like he was reducing his own worth and depending on her.

It seemed as though he was trying to please Yuan Keqing.

This would put him at a disadvantage.

Perhaps, it might even make Yuan Keqing think that he needed to rely on Yuan Keqing to live.

He had to show some toughness to make Yuan Keqing believe that he still had the ability and confidence to live on his own.

Yuan Keqing hesitated in her heart.

Seeing how confident Wei Keli was, she became less certain.

After all, it was just a guess previously and she had no evidence to prove it.

She had brought up wanting to take a look because she wanted to know if her guess was right.

Now, not only did not see the evidence, Wei Keli refused on the grounds that she didn’t understand.

If she insisted, Wei Keli might really be angry.

Because of Wei Zhijian’s words, Yuan Keqing was hesitating whether she should break up with Wei Keli.

Therefore, she decided to not break up.

“Just like your performance, I won’t say anything,” Wei Keli said again, “Because I’m an amateur. What I said may be wrong and might not help you at all. You definitely know more than I do. Acting too rashly won’t help you at all.”

“I understand.” Yuan Keqing forced a smile. “I was too rash. I’ll be more careful in the future.”

Hearing that, Wei Keli smiled approvingly at Yuan Keqing and complimented, “I like your thoughtfulness and sensibility.”

Despite being misunderstood, Yuan Keqing had to pretend. She couldn’t say anything and only nodded.

“Keli, don’t you want to go home?” Only then did Wei Zhijian say, “Send her back. The two of you can have a good chat in private. It won’t be convenient for you two to chat while we’re here.”

Wei Zhijian looked at them with a mask of concern.

Wei Keli also put up a pretence. He got up and replied gently, “Okay, then I’ll send Keqing home first.”

Wei Zhijian and Li Xiangrong also stood up. Wei Zhijian patted his pants and said, “Let’s go too. We can go together.”

Thus, the four of them left together.

On the way home, Wei Keli brainwashed Yuan Keqing again.

Wei Keli felt that his brainwashing was quite successful.

And Yuan Keqing also pretended to accept the brainwashing.

Finally, they reached the house.

Yuan Keqing swallowed her annoyance and sent Wei Keli away before entering the house.

Once she entered the house, Yuan Keqing was surprised to find that Xu Mingjing and Yuan Zhengwen were both at home.

Ever since Yuan Zhengwen’s career got better, he had been socializing more.

During the day, especially during the weekends, it was rare to see him at home.

Although Xu Mingjing didn’t know everything about Yuan Zhengwen, she knew about 70-80% of it.

Even if she didn’t see it with her own eyes, she knew about Yuan Zhengwen’s situation.

What Xu Mingjing was most worried about now was that there was a woman outside taking the opportunity to give birth to a son for Yuan Zhengwen.

She now felt that her greatest disadvantage was that she only had one daughter, Yuan Keqing.

Someone had to inherit Yuan Zhengwen’s company, right?
