Chapter 678: Chapter 679 The Real Heiress Does Not Return to Her Place 11_1

Wei Yan didn’t speak for a long while, just staring at Wei Xudong who, of course, became discouraged.

But he knew he couldn’t back down, he absolutely couldn’t cave at this moment.

So he kept staring firmly at Wei Yan, who usually was such a pushover, but when it came to matters related to Wei Wei, he would suddenly become so full of spine.

If they were actual brothers and sisters, Wei Yan might not have said anything, but they weren’t real siblings.

"Didn’t I do an investigation?"

"Haven’t I sent someone to look into it?"

"I didn’t go and acknowledge the other party directly," Wei Yan didn’t offer any face for Wei Xudong.

He felt that what was most important at the moment was to make Wei Xudong’s mind somewhat clearer.

It never occurred to Wei Xudong that he would actually be scolded by Wei Yan, nor did he think it was his fault or Wei Wei’s. He blamed the sister he had never met.

He felt that this sister hadn’t even returned, and she had already stirred up so much trouble at home; how could there be any peace once she came back?

Wei Xudong had made up his mind that if the other party really was his biological sister, he wouldn’t give her a warm welcome either and would definitely let her know that it didn’t matter even if she was a biological daughter.

In his heart, this sister was an outsider and had to behave properly at home, without causing any trouble.

Otherwise, there definitely wouldn’t be any good consequences.

Wei Wei, looking at Wei Xudong standing up for her against Wei Yan, felt such a wave of emotion and warmth in her heart.

"Dad, don’t be angry at brother, he is just trying to say that there’s no rush with this matter," Wei Wei stepped forward, pleading on behalf of Wei Xudong, which moved the latter, as he looked at her with gratitude.

Wei Yan watched the interaction between the two, genuinely surprised. He had no idea that their affection for each other could be so profound without his knowledge.

Wei Yan resolved not to send Wei Wei abroad for studying because, after all, it would cost a lot of money.

If it were his own child, Wei Yan felt that the money spent would be just that, spent. But now that she wasn’t his, why would he be willing to cultivate her?

As for Wei Xudong, if he went abroad alone, the family would support his education, but if he insisted on taking Wei Wei with him, sorry, the family absolutely wouldn’t provide the funds.

If they didn’t wish to study abroad, they wouldn’t go abroad, and that would save a great deal of money.

If the child who got into Harbor City University truly was their own, the future probably wouldn’t be bad, and they could help support the Wei family as well.

"I don’t need your guidance in my affairs."

"When you have time, think about studying abroad," said Wei Yan as he stood up.

Studying abroad? Wei Xudong didn’t understand why their discussion about the suddenly appeared sister had turned into a talk about studying abroad.

"Dad, why are you preoccupied with my studying abroad? I’m just starting my senior year, and there’s also the matter of my sister’s schooling," he said.

Compared to the possibility of finally finding his real sister, Wei Xudong was more concerned about where Wei Wei would go to college.

Seeing Wei Xudong still concerned about Wei Wei’s schooling, Wei Yan couldn’t help but retort annoyed, "See which school sends an admission notice."

"But those colleges are too crappy," of course Wei Xudong was unhappy. In his eyes, his sister was so good that she definitely deserved to attend a better university.

"Crappy? You say the schools are crappy, but you don’t look at your sister’s grades."

"If you say those schools aren’t good enough, well then, you can retake the year," Wei Yan restrained from cursing and impatiently threw out this line before going to the study.

He was busy investigating the girl’s situation; if she turned out to be their own child, of course, he wanted to acknowledge her sooner.

The more he thought about it, the angrier he got. If only the mother-in-law had found the child earlier and they had acknowledged each other before the college exams, things would have been different.

Anyone with clear eyes could see that the child had a promising future; he could rely on his own abilities to study at Harbor City University. Did he really need his family’s support?

What really troubled Wei Yan now was that, once he confirmed the child was his own, would the other party really be willing to let go?

Who would want to give up on a promising child, offer money? He just didn’t know how much it would take for them to finally ease up.

His head ached, it truly did. He should have insisted on searching back then, rather than stopping because of one sentence from Xue Yan, out of fear that the child’s return would weigh on Wei Wei’s mind.

Wei Yan’s dissatisfaction with Xue Yan began to grow, feeling that she didn’t know how to educate a child, knowing full well that her own daughter was not found and yet still treating Wei Wei kindly.

Wei Yan sighed, picked up the phone, and delegated the matter.

The secretary had not expected to receive a call from the boss at this hour. What could he do? He was just a worker, so of course he would do whatever the boss said.

He quickly got his things together and briskly headed out the door. Although the boss hadn’t specified a deadline, it was understood that the sooner it was finished, the better.

Thinking of hurrying to complete the task, the secretary hung up the phone and drove away.

Wei Xudong knew whom Wei Yan would arrange for the task, but he was in a hurry to comfort Wei Wei, who had been crying so sadly.

It wasn’t until Wei Xudong finally succeeded in consoling Wei Wei and made a call that he learned the other party had already set off; this really infuriated him.

Zhang Li had no idea that someone had already become aware of her existence, but it didn’t matter to her. She had already packed her luggage.

Yang Xue knew that Zhang Li would set off early, but actually seeing her pack her luggage still made her feel a bit sad.

Zhang Li handed the keys in her hand to Yang Xue, "Please, look after Mom for me."

Yang Xue’s mother had initially thought that after Zhang Li went off to study, they would rent out her room here. Although it wasn’t much money, it was still a little income.

After learning that Zhang Li wasn’t planning to rent out the room, she took on the responsibility of looking after the house.

Yang Xue carefully took the keys, "No problem, it’s something my mom can do conveniently."

"When I get there, you must come to pick me up," Yang Xue confirmed again with Zhang Li.

"Don’t worry,"

"Once you’re there, I will definitely pick you up,"

"I know about your flight ticket,"

"You can take the opportunity during summer vacation to earn some money," originally someone had wanted Zhang Li to tutor their child, but she had declined politely.

Zhang Li thought that Yang Xue could take on tutoring those kids; her grades weren’t bad either.

And so Zhang Li giving lessons to those children turned out quite well, silencing the parents who initially had objections.

"Once you’re in Harbor City, having money will make life easier,"

"You might also try doing some purchasing on behalf of others," the purchasing business was still viable at the time, things like bringing back makeup and the like.

The number of people Yang Xue’s mother knew wasn’t small, and she could help introduce some business. How to make the money, though, was up to them to discuss.

"Can I really do this?" Yang Xue had never imagined that one day, she too could engage in purchasing business.

"Why not? You’re going to Harbor City; they have more things than the Mainland."

"Of course, if you really want to earn money, the people around you might start to gossip,"

"They don’t have to buy," Yang Xue didn’t care anymore, "Besides, why should I help them buy things for free?"

"If I’m not making any money, why should I bother running to the shopping center for them all the time," once Yang Xue realized she could earn money tutoring at her age, she learned how sweet it was to earn money.

"I’m even planning on continuing my studies in Europe and America after graduating from Harbor City University," more education is always good, ideally right up to a master’s degree.
