Chapter 361: Chapter 361 I’m Not Interested in the Wei FamilyThe velvet box was evidently taken by Shi Yaoguang of her own accord, albeit... He didn’t feel it at all, nor did he notice when the box vanished. He also had no idea how Shi Yaoguang managed to get it. Despite being surprised by Shi Yaoguang’s methods, his face showed little change. "This was a gift I had prepared for you, bound to end up in your hands eventually; you getting it early is just fine," he said. Yet Shi Yaoguang deliberately made things difficult for him. "How could that be okay?" "Since it’s a gift, you should have personally given it to me," she said, flipping her hand, and the velvet box disappeared as if into thin air, "If I got this, then it’s mine." "So—" She drew out her tone, "You’ll still need to prepare another welcome gift for me." The man hadn’t expected Shi Yaoguang’s reaction, and immediately chuckled, "Interesting." At his words, her eyebrows lifted, her tone tinged with mockery, "Interesting? Is it because I managed to take the welcome gift you prepared for me right before your eyes?" "No," he shook his head, his eyes full of mirth, "Your personality, it’s very interesting." Sёarᴄh the NovelFire.net* website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. Shi Yaoguang pouted, "You’re the first person to compliment my personality." "There will be more people like that in the future," he said with conviction, then smoothly changed the topic, "I will prepare another welcome gift for you." With that, he paused, "Now, let me invite you once again." "Would you be willing to come with me and inherit the family business?" Unexpectedly, Shi Yaoguang refused once more. He couldn’t comprehend why. "Why don’t you want to? Is taking over the Wei Family’s business really so repulsive to you?" Shi Yaoguang shook her head, "It’s not that the Wei Family’s business is repulsive; I just feel... that my relationship with the Wei Family isn’t good enough yet to inherit their business." The man seemed to have anticipated this, and upon hearing her words, a smile spread across his lips, "Actually, whether or not your relationship with the Wei Family is good should be measured by your relationship with the Wei Family itself." "Hm?" Shi Yaoguang expressed some interest in what he said. He smiled, "You probably don’t know much about what happened with the Wei Family in the past. Let me give you a brief rundown." "I was brought back home by my father when I was very young, and he truly raised me as his own son." "Originally, his plan was to have me and my sister, Wei Lan, be together. Wei Lan showed no talent for business from a young age, so my father never expected her to achieve much in that realm. It was me to whom he entrusted the responsibility of earning money for the family from early on. All Wei Lan needed to do was to be beautiful." "Sadly, Wei Lan didn’t want that life. She refused to accept our father’s plans, and after taking a liking to Shi Rusong, she chose to elope with him." Talking about this, he seemed rather helpless, sighing deeply, "My father was very angry about this..." Shi Yaoguang listened quietly as he detailed everything that had happened in the past. It was then that Shi Yaoguang began to understand their relationship more profoundly. It had to be said, Wei Lan really had no brains. Even though Wei Lan was her biological mother, she still had to say, stupidity is innate. ... After Wei Jinyan had said everything there was to say to Shi Yaoguang, he looked at her with hopeful eyes, "There’s a saying that the enemy of my enemy is my friend. The Shi Family doesn’t want to accept you, Wei Lan doesn’t value you, but we of the Wei Family are different." "It’s perfect, the Wei Family and Wei Lan are two different camps. Even if you choose the Wei Family, there’s no conflict with Wei Lan. What do you think?" Shi Yaoguang was somewhat hesitant. Wei Jinyan looked at her eagerly, "I know you’re smart. With a better option before you, why wouldn’t you accept it? Must you be like an impetuous youth, insisting on a struggle that you believe must be fought alone, without any help, to consider it a success?" Shi Yaoguang shook her head, correcting him, "I don’t have to do that. In fact, I had already succeeded before you approached me." As she spoke, she briefly explained to Wei Jinyan how high the daily returns were for her Shiyuan Cosmetics and Xingchen Live. Of course, her two companies could not yet compare to the Wei Family. But... Her returns were enough to illustrate a few points. Considering her age, the amount of money her company was making at her current age could already be considered a miracle. With her abilities, soaring to great heights without the Wei Family was just a matter of time. It was precisely because he knew Shi Yaoguang had this ability that Wei Jinyan valued her even more. Just as inheriting everything from the Wei Family would be the icing on the cake for her. If the Wei Family could have such an heir, it would enhance the Family’s influence even further. Now it all depended on Shi Yaoguang’s willingness to accept the olive branch that the Wei Family was extending to her. "Madam Shi cut off ties with the Wei Family, and they never considered her regarding the issue of the heir. I can understand that, but... I’m also a bit curious." Wei Jinyan gave her a ’please continue’ look, encouraging Shi Yaoguang to proceed. Shi Yaoguang directly asked, "Since you could find me, it’s clear you had considered Shi Yiqing before. I want to know, what made you give up on Shi Yiqing and firmly choose me instead." Wei Jinyan didn’t immediately answer the question but asked instead, "Do you really want to know?" "Yes." Shi Yaoguang licked her lips, her gaze resolute, "I want to know the reason I was chosen." Wei Jinyan said, "We did consider letting Shi Yiqing take over the Wei Family’s estate, but unfortunately, she didn’t pass our assessment." "To be honest, I’m not interested in the Wei Family’s estate," Wei Jinyan suddenly said, "If I had any ambition for all the Wei Family holds, I wouldn’t be standing here today. According to my father’s wishes, I would be finding an heir for the Wei Family instead." "Are you truly unmoved by everything that the Wei Family has to offer?" "Yes." "Then what do you like?" "Hmm?" Wei Jinyan did not expect her to suddenly ask that and was momentarily stunned. "Why do you ask?" Shi Yaoguang folded her arms, her tone indifferent, "Didn’t you say you weren’t interested in the family business? Before I consider going back to inherit all that, I need to find out clearly whether what I will inherit could pose a different threat to you—or to me." Speaking of this... Wei Jinyan’s gaze drifted off for a moment, his tone exceedingly firm, "I’m serious, I have no interest in anything of the Wei Family. If you need it, I can stay in the Wei Family to assist you. If you’re worried that my presence might threaten you, I can transfer all my shares to you."
