Chapter 695: Chapter 696 The Real Heiress Does Not Return to Her Place 28_1

Wei Yan was thinking of taking advantage of the New Year gatherings to throw a party and formally introduce Zhang Li.

He could also take Zhang Li out to attend gatherings, letting more people know of her existence and her excellence.

If, in such an occasion, she could catch the eye of a young man with a good family background, or one who was her equal, and they became a couple,

then it would truly be a joyous occasion, both for Zhang Li and for the Wei Family.

He had thought over and over again about how to introduce Zhang Li grandly at his own family gathering, hoping to present his beloved daughter in the best possible way.

Unexpectedly, not only did Zhang Li not plan to come back for the New Year, she even brought up Wei Wei.

As for that girl, Wei Yan had no fond feelings; he truly didn’t want to see her.

It had been a long time since Wei Wei returned or appeared before him, but Wei Yan was certain that whether at family gatherings or outside parties, Wei Xudong would take her along.

This darn kid, now even dared to stand up against him just to prevent Zhang Li from coming back for the New Year.

Wei Yan was so angry: She is your sister, your own sister.

Wei Xudong rolled his eyes in displeasure: What does it matter if she’s my sister? Even at Harbor City University, I didn’t see her take any care of me.

In the past, there were many things he dare not say, but now that he had money in his hands: Wei Wei grew up in our household; she was once your daughter, my sister, and she will be my wife, your daughter-in-law in the future.

Every time Wei Xudong thought of Zhang Li’s face, he felt irritated: A married daughter is like spilled water. My grandfather and the others didn’t let my aunts climb over their heads.

Wei Xudong: But when it comes to me, I have to suppress that girl. She may be smart, but how come I’m any less?

Every time Wei Xudong remembered the unkind words Wei Yan had said about him, he got all kinds of angry: Dad, didn’t you say how bad I was at trading on the stock market, but here in Harbor City, am I not earning a lot of money?

Wei Xudong thought back to the initial amount of money he put in the stock market, which was around 220 to 230 thousand, but now, through various leverage principles, he had added a zero to it.

What does that mean? It means that in a few months’ time, he had earned over 1.8 million; how could it not prove his strength.

If he could be given more funds and more time, Wei Xudong felt that he could earn even more than Wei’s assets.

By then, he could give Wei Wei better honor, so what if Zhang Li is smart, she is just someone who can only stay in a small city, living a mediocre life forever.

Wei Xudong: In short, Dad, I don’t want to make things difficult for you. I don’t want Wei Wei to be sad; the family changes have already made her feel a lot of pressure.

Wei Xudong: If she sees Zhang Li, I really worry that she won’t be able to bear it, it’s bad for her health.

Wei Xudong: In short, Dad, you give me an answer this afternoon, whether you choose her or choose me.

Wei Xudong could already guess Wei Yan’s choice; he didn’t believe he couldn’t suppress that someone this time, absolutely not giving that someone any chance to turn things around.

Wei Xudong abruptly ended the call and went out to look at apartments, determined to rent one even though the holidays were upon him.

He started school early, and Wei Wei started late, just in time to take her to see his new apartment and make sure she has a comfortable place to stay.

Then he could also take Wei Wei shopping; in short, he would definitely make her happy.

The things he didn’t buy for her before, this time he would make up for them all, letting her know that even if Wei Yan wasn’t good to her, he still was there for her.

Of course, Wei Yan was very dissatisfied with Wei Xudong’s attitude, but he also knew that no matter how annoyed he was, it was impossible not to let Wei Xudong come back.

It just so happened that Zhang Li didn’t want to come back for the Spring Festival either, so this matter was also easy to resolve.

Wei Yan could only inform Wei Xudong that afternoon that Zhang Li wouldn’t be returning, leaving only him to come back.

This made him happy, and he promised to bring them some gifts.

The stock market had been doing well these days, and he made quite a bit of money. When he went out to look for a house, he immediately found one to his satisfaction.

The rent was a bit expensive, but he didn’t mind, saying, "If my heart is set on it, let it be pricey"; he promptly signed a one-year lease.

Fortunate in all his endeavors, he naturally wanted to reward himself and planned to drive out for some good food.

Wei Xudong, having made money, didn’t forget to indulge in a luxury car to treat himself. Even though the cost of keeping a car in Harbor City was not cheap, what of it?

Running into Zhang Li in the elevator again, Wei Xudong was pleased, "Spring Festival is coming up, how do you plan to spend it?"

"Oh right, I forgot to tell you, I told Dad that I don’t want to see you during Spring Festival." Humph, so what if she’s Miss Wei?

Wei Xudong would use his way to let the many old family friends know how he, the Wei Family heir, utterly rejects this sister.

He would make sure everyone ostracized Zhang Li, absolutely not letting her integrate into the Wei Family’s social stratum.

Seeing someone’s arrogant demeanor, Zhang Li held back Yang Xue, who wanted to retort, "Have fun."

She glanced at someone, aware this person was proud, and now realized he was also a master at leveraged play.

Well, if it weren’t for leveraging, how could he have made so much money?

Under favourable conditions, he could indeed make a lot of money, but once trapped, the speed of losing money was also swift.

Wei Xudong now knew it was impossible to hope to see a certain person’s face change, "I’ve already rented a place, a sea-view apartment with two bedrooms."

"Congratulations," Zhang Li heard he had rented a place, "This area really doesn’t suit your temperament, after all."

"Don’t you want to move in there?" Wei Xudong tried to provoke, thinking if she agreed, he could ridicule her properly.

"I don’t want to," Zhang Li refused bluntly, "You and I are not familiar with each other."

"You have time to take care of your wife," she said just as the elevator reached the ground floor, and both Zhang Li and Yang Xue stepped out.

Wei Xudong watched them leaving, feeling very upset, "Forget it, it doesn’t matter anymore."

"I don’t have to put up with that girl’s face anymore. Why should I demean myself by fixating on her?"

Wei Xudong was busy shopping; this time returning home, he could consider it a grand homecoming.

When he had left, he did so quietly, saying no farewells to friends, not because he didn’t want to notify them, but because he had no money at the time.

Now, the situation was different. He had a lot of money and could definitely throw the grandest of parties.

"Right, I also need to have a few custom suits made." Appearance should not be neglected; oh, and he needed to buy a car.

Sitting in the car, Wei Xudong did some calculations and realized a significant problem—if he ordered another car, there wouldn’t be much money left.

What to do? "Money’s just not enough," Wei Xudong considered increasing his leverage, but then he thought better of it. With the upcoming Spring Festival and his inability to keep a constant eye on things, any issue arising would be out of his hands to resolve.

"No matter, there’ll be money once I get back." Wei Xudong had it all planned. Once he returned, he would have a good talk with Wei Yan. He couldn’t believe that with his proven ability to make money, they would choose not to invest.
