However, once she remembered her initial goal, she quickly adjusted her mood.
No matter what, she must take care of the matter before Shi Yaoguang’s examination.
The college entrance exam was scheduled before the final exams, and for this, she came up with a good plan.
She decided to pay a personal visit to the Wei Family while Shi Yaoguang was busy preparing for her exams.
If she could visit the Wei Family corporation’s headquarters, that would be even better.
Wei Qingtian, upon hearing Shi Yiqing’s request, did not immediately refuse her.
Similarly, he did not directly agree.
Facing such ambivalent responses, Shi Yiqing felt quite anxious.
"Grandfather, why won’t you agree to my request? Don’t you want to see me in person?" she asked.
Wei Qingtian’s explanation was, "You are currently in the country, and it would take at least two days to get to the Wei Family. Aren’t you about to have exams? The round trip would mean a delay of four days. If this were to interfere with your exams, I, your grandfather..."
Shi Yiqing interrupted him, "Grandfather, please don’t worry. I will definitely not be affected. It’s only four days. You don’t have to be concerned."
Fearing that Wei Qingtian might not trust her, she added, "Recently, my sister and I both took leave to act in a film, and it didn’t interfere with our grades, did it?"
This reminded Wei Qingtian.
Both Shi Yaoguang and Shi Yiqing had taken leave to act in a film, but the difference was that Shi Yaoguang was genuinely busy filming.
Shi Yiqing, on the other hand...
Had been staying in a detention center.
The Shi Family was even unaware of this incident. Thinking of this, Wei Qingtian felt disdain for Shi Yiqing once again.
And for that useless couple from the Shi Family.
Such a serious matter occurred, and they didn’t get even a hint of news – simply foolish.
Despite having a significant complaint in his heart, Wei Qingtian never showed it.
On the contrary, he appeared to be persuaded by Shi Yiqing and agreed to let her come to the Wei Family.
Shi Yiqing then suggested that she wanted Wei Jinyan to personally come back to the country to pick her up.
Wei Qingtian did not refuse and told her to contact Wei Jinyan directly.
Even though Wei Jinyan had received hints from Shi Yaoguang, he didn’t feel the need to be hypocritically polite to Shi Yiqing.
Therefore, he coldly rejected her.
"Sorry, I don’t have time," he said.
Shi Yiqing naturally didn’t believe this.
Of course, she didn’t mistrust the fact that Wei Jinyan was busy.
Without a doubt, Wei Jinyan was indeed busy.
No matter how busy, one could always find some time, like he did last time when he personally came for Shi Yaoguang.
On the surface, Shi Yaoguang did not go to the Wei Family with Wei Jinyan.
However, the fact that Wei Jinyan personally welcomed Shi Yaoguang was known by many.
Because of this, Shi Yiqing felt a bit jealous deep down.
Now, having her request for Wei Jinyan to personally come back for her denied, left a bitter taste in her mouth.
Despite this, Wei Jinyan was not planning to indulge her.
"I can’t make the time. If you want to come over, just buy your own ticket. I can handle the visa for you, but you should ask someone else for anything else. I’m going to hang up if there’s nothing else."
After finishing, Wei Jinyan hung up the phone.
Shi Yiqing, listening to the busy tone coming from the receiver, had a very ugly look on her face.
"Wei Jinyan..." She ground her teeth, calling out Wei Jinyan’s name, her face dark with anger, "With this attitude towards me, don’t expect me to get along with you peacefully in the future! You better not give me the chance, or I will definitely seek revenge!"
In her heart, she imagined a crystal clear future for Wei Jinyan, but she also had to return to reality.
The fact that Wei Jinyan was unwilling to come to pick her up, and even unwilling to send someone to assist her, infuriated her greatly.
The thought of Wei Lan’s attitude made Shi Yiqing feel even more exasperated.
She shared her troubles with Quan Sicheng, and he felt so sorry for her that he quickly said he had a solution.
Shi Yiqing looked at him with eager eyes, hoping he could help.
"Brother Sicheng, you’re all I have left!"
She threw herself into Quan Sicheng’s arms, saying pitifully, "Mom has been colder and colder towards me lately, and Dad has been frazzled because of the Shi Family company’s issues. Without you, I really don’t know what to do..."
Quan Sicheng hugged her sympathetically and comforted her softly, "Qingqing, don’t worry, if your mom and dad won’t help with Wei Family’s affairs, I definitely will."
"You are much better than Shi Yaoguang, she just used schemes to get the Wei Family’s admiration. Once the Wei Family sees you, they will definitely be impressed."
"Brother Sicheng, you’re so good to me~"
"Silly girl, if I’m not good to you, then to whom should I be?"
Quan Sicheng kissed her forehead and suddenly, his expression became serious.
"Brother Sicheng, what’s wrong?"
Shi Yiqing looked at him anxiously, worried that something untoward had happened to him.
Rubbing his temples, Quan Sicheng shared his own troubles, "I have to participate in this year’s college entrance exams as well. Grandfather knows about Qingtian Entertainment’s situation; he told me to put the company aside for now, and I’m a bit torn..."
Qingtian Entertainment was not doing well and was on the verge of going bankrupt.
If it weren’t for the fame supporting him as the fourth young master of the Quan Family, it would have been divided up by the predators outside long ago.
Even so, his current situation couldn’t be described as good.
As Shi Yiqing listened, a shadow of worry also appeared on her face.
She thought for a moment and suggested, "Why don’t you, Brother Sicheng, give up on this college entrance exam?"
Quan Sicheng’s eyes widened a bit, looking at her with uncertainty, "Give up on the college entrance exams?"
"Yes." Shi Yiqing leaned on his chest, discussing the pros and cons with him, "The college exams are just extra credit. You have a company to inherit, and it doesn’t matter if you don’t do well. Grandfather will definitely not mind."
"But if the company goes bankrupt, our older sister and third uncle will surely take this opportunity to pull you down from your heir position. By then, it will be too late to want anything..."
What Shi Yiqing said made sense, but Quan Sicheng still hesitated.
The college entrance exam was a one-time opportunity, and his previous grades had always been among the top in the Rocket Class. From this, it was clear that if he took part in the exams, he could definitely achieve a good rank.
If he went to prepare for the exams, he would naturally be neglecting his control over the company.
This was something he did not want to see.
One misstep could mean total loss. He didn’t want to be exiled by the Quan Family so easily.
Seeing him in distress, an idea formed in the depths of Shi Yiqing’s heart.
She might not have a solution, but that didn’t mean others didn’t.
In the Quan Family, besides Quan Jinbei, there was still the old master to consider!
She refused to believe that if the old master knew about this, he would remain indifferent.
She knew that the Quan Family’s old master favored Quan Sicheng even more than Quan Jinbei did.
Though she didn’t know the hidden details, she could at least be sure that the old master wouldn’t allow Quan Sicheng to end up in a dire state!
