On the other hand, his son, Wei Wei, was not smart. He was at the bottom of the class in his studies and had already gone to the Corporation for an internship, but he often did things inappropriately and liked to go out to fool around. His reputation in the capital was not good either. He was furious, but there was nothing he could do.
Her brother’s daughter, Wei Ying, had also graduated from Capital University. She heard that she had recently helped his mother clean up the third branch’s Wei Chi. Even the third branch had been neglected by his father recently.
As for his daughter, she was still chasing after celebrities on the university campus with all kinds of banners. She shouted I love you at those boy idols every day.
At the thought of this, Wei Hong became even angrier. He still wanted to fight for the position of the Wei Family’s heir for Wei Wei. How was he going to fight with such aotitude?
Wei Hong looked helpless. Then, as if he had thought of something, he looked up at Ning Sheng and said, “You just said that Lin Yin and Wei Ji are close? Lin Yin is also a member of the Mu family. Will the Mu family help Wei Ji behind the scenes?”
Wang Xu took a sip and said, “That depends on what the Mu family thinks and how deep Lin Yin’s feelings for Wei Ji are.”
“Ye Wen is very protective of her children. Lin Yin is her favorite now. If Lin Yin really asks Ye Wen to help Wei Ji, Ye Wen and her husband can really do it,” Ning Sheng said.
Wei Hong panicked when he heard that and said, “Then what should we do? If Mu Cheng and his wife help Wei Ji from behind, won’t the Mu Family be the opponent we have to face?”
Ning Sheng nodded and said, “Yes, that’s right, but the matter isn’t settled yet. We’re just guessing. Besides, doesn’t the Mu Family still have Old Master Mu and Old Madam Mu? These two won’t blindly do something they’re not confident of for Lin Yin. With these two holding back Mu Cheng and his wife, things shouldn’t be so troublesome.”
“In the end, it’s still Lin Yin. Wouldn’t it be fine as long as we pull Lin Yin into our camp? At that time, not to mention nothing troublesome, even the third branch won’t be enough for us.” With that, Wei Hong looked up and drank a small cup of tea.
Wang Xu sneered. “How? Are you going to use your son to rope him in?” Wei Hong rubbed his nose in embarrassment and did not say anything.
Not to mention that Wei Wei had offended Lin Yin now, even if he did not offend Lin Yin, his son’s messy reputation would not be able to rope Lin Yin in.
Wei Hong looked at Ning Sheng and said reluctantly but sincerely, “Ah Yang is not bad. Let him interact with Lin Yin more. I don’t believe that a normal and healthy person can’t compare to that cripple, Wei Ji. Unless Lin Yin is a freak with some kind of disability fetish.”
“You finally know how to use Ah Yang now? Go back and educate your stupid wife and son. Don’t always not differentiate between friend and foe. You can only see those small benefits. You have no foresight,” Wang Xu said angrily. Being scolded in front of Ning Sheng, Wei Hong felt embarrassed and stood up to leave.
Wang Xu looked at Ning Sheng seriously and said, “I think what Ah Hong said just now makes sense. See if you can get Wei Yang to try to get in touch with Lin Yin. She’s a young lady. I don’t believe that she really likes that cripple. Moreover, young people nowadays have very open views on love. They might like you this moment and completely ignore you in the next moment.
Ning Sheng sighed and said, “It’s not that I haven’t thought about it. Now that we’re in such a situation, Ah Yang’s marriage partner will definitely find a girl that’s beneficial for us to successfully take over the Wei Family in the future. Among the eight families in the capital, there are two suitable ones in the Wen Family. It just so happens that the Wen Family is in-laws with the third branch. The Gong Family has Gong Han. She’s at the right age, but she’s not favored. Even if she’s married, she won’t be of much help.”
Ning Sheng gently cleaned the cup that Wei Hong had just drunk from as she continued, “The girls in the Hou Family are not easy to control and are not suitable. The girls from the other families are all young. That Yue Ning, that Lu Yue, and Lu Yan are all young. Even this Lin Yin is young. I don’t know how long we’ll have to wait until she can get married. I think Dad’s health is already a little dejected. We can’t wait.”
Wang Xu knew that what Ning Sheng said was the truth, but she was still a little indignant.
According to strength, the Lu Family, the Mu Family, and the Wei Family were ranked in the top three of the eight aristocratic families in the capital Although everyone said that the three families were evenly matched and were tied for first place, the Wei Family could not compare to old families like the Lu Family and the Mu Family.
In addition, the Wei Family was not just of the same bloodline, so neither the Lu Family nor the Mu Family might fancy a complicated family like the Wei Family..
