Chapter 728: Chapter 727: Who Dares to Speak? Part 1 Chapter 728: Chapter 727: Who Dares to Speak? Part 1 “Enough, all of you quiet down, what sort of behavior is this?” Wei Fangyi roared, instantly quieting the living room.
Tang Qian shrank back, her good mood from the promotion at work long gone. She held Wei An in her arms, silently shedding tears.
Wei Shufen wanted to push Tang Qian aside, but recalling Tang Qian’s words from their last encounter in the restroom, she begrudgingly held herself back.
“Dad, you must avenge me,” Wei An cried out emotionally, “They did it on purpose, they deliberately hurt me, you must avenge me.”
Seeing his son’s broken arm, no matter how dissatisfied Wei Fangyi felt, he couldn’t vent it out. He couldn’t base his judgement solely on one side of the story without clarifying the situation. Additionally, he couldn’t believe that Huo Beijiang, given his size, would deliberately make trouble with a child.
“Alright, just focus on recovering at home for now. As my child, you should not constantly talk about revenge,” Wei Fangyi said.
“Right, Dad, I am your son, even when someone has broken my arm, I should remain silent. If that’s the case, I’d rather not be your son,” Wei An retorted, turning his head away stubbornly, refusing to look at Wei Fangyi anymore.
“You-” Wei Fangyi glared at Wei An.
Wei Qin, standing at the doorway and watching the scene unfold, couldn’t help but smile softly. Everyone finally noticed his arrival, and Tang Lan hurried over to greet him. “You’re back? Stop standing at the door, come in and sit.”
Saying so, everyone naturally made space for Wei Qin to sit.
“You’re such a polite child.”
Seeing Wei Qin, Tang Qian regarded him as a savior, pleading, “Wei Qin, please help your brother. Look at what they’ve done to him!”
“Was it Huo Beijiang who did this?” Wei Qin asked.
With a guilty conscience, Tang Qian lowered her head. But with her son watching her, she had to answer, “It was… Wei An fell on the training obstacle course.”
Hearing this, Wei Qin could only shrug helplessly. He didn’t look at Tang Qian, but instead turned his gaze to Wei Shufen, “So, what’s your plan for holding the other party accountable?”
When Wei Shufen met Wei Qin’s penetrating gaze that seemed to see through everything, she instinctively averted her eyes.
Yes, Tang Qian’s insistence on venting her anger on Huo Beijiang was spurred by Wei Shufen’s instigation.
The living room fell into an awkward silence. Wei Qin’s clear gaze swept over everyone. Then he said placidly, “Haven’t you all heard what outsiders are saying about our Wei Family? Bullies who take advantage of their power.”
The last four words hit everyone like a sledgehammer.
The power of the Wei Family, and the status of their father, had caused everyone in the family to lose their way, thinking that the world should revolve around them. If someone refused to obey, or was stronger than them, then such a person was intolerable.
Wei Qin felt a profound sense of disappointment. His relatives failed to see the efforts he and his father made. They didn’t see that their family was teetering on the edge, that he won’t live much longer, and that his father wouldn’t be able to withstand the loss when it happened.
Who would be able to hold up the Wei Family then?
The present condition of the Huo Family was what the Wei Family would face in the future. They didn’t see that, instead, they were taking pleasure in the misfortune of others.
“Qin.” Wei Fangyi approached with concern.
Wei Qin waved his hand, indicating that he was fine.
“Nonsense! Who dares to talk about our family?” Wei Shufen shouted indignantly, “And how have we ever bullied anyone? I think all these rumors are just jealousy!”
