Butler Li nodded. “Old Master also said that if Lin Yin can really protect Fifth
Young Master, Fifth Young Master’s life will be different in the future.”
Aunt Li asked worriedly, “Then can the other two families let Fifth Young Master off? They can tolerate a Fifth Young Master who doesn’t have the strength to go against them, but they definitely won’t tolerate a Fifth Young Master who has the strength to compete with them.”
Butler Li sighed and said, “That depends on fate. After all, wealth comes from danger. Anyone who really wants to have the right to speak in the Wei Family has to pay a price. The old lady who has already passed away doesn’t have this life.”
Aunt Li sighed softly and smiled. “You can go back first. I’ll go back after I see Third Miss.”
Butler Li nodded and said, “Don’t get too involved in the matter between Fifth Young Master and Third Miss. I know you’ve taken care of Third Miss since she was young and have some feelings for her, but remember, you’re just getting paid to take care of them. There’s no need to get yourself involved.”
Aunt Li nodded. “I know. I know what I’m doing.”
After Butler Li left, Aunt Li closed the door.
Looking at the empty bed, Aunt Li hurriedly opened the small door and rushed into Wei Ji’s room. Seeing that Wei Xuan was sleeping peacefully on Wei Ji’s bed, Aunt Li heaved a sigh of relief.
“Aunt? You’re back?” Wei Ji had long sobered up when he heard someone enter. Seeing that it was Aunt Li, Wei Ji let down his guard.
Aunt Li turned to look at Wei Ji. Her expression was not good. Her expression was different from before. She asked, “Are your injuries serious?” Wei Ji shook his head. “It’s not serious. It’s bearable.”
Aunt Li walked towards Wei Ji, who was on the sofa. Her expression was gloomy in the dim night light. She smiled and said, “Lin Yin fell into the water for you and got someone to pay attention to your movements at all times. She even offended Wei Chi for you. It seems like she really treats you differently.”
Wei Ji nodded. “As long as she knows that I’m not doing well in the Wei Family and that I’ll die one day if I don’t fight, she’ll quickly make up her mind to help me gain a foothold in the Wei Family.”
Aunt Li snorted and sat on the sofa at the side. She sneered. “I didn’t expect the plan to go so smoothly. As expected, a little girl is a little girl. No matter how powerful she is, her brain is still easily affected by love. Once Lin Yin participates, the Mu family will definitely not sit back and do nothing.”
“With the Mu Family as your backing, it’s easy to take down the Wei Family with the help of the elders of the Wei Corporation. When the time comes, you can marry Lin Yin and use her. With the Mu Family’s love for Lin Yin, I think Lin Yin can get a lot of this huge Mu Corporation. At that time, it’ll all be yours. ”
Wei Ji nodded, but his expression was a little gloomy.
Aunt Li caught the change in Wei Ji’s emotions and narrowed her eyes slightly. She probed, “What’s wrong? Don’t tell me your heart softened? Or can’t you bear to see that Miss Lin Yin is good-looking? Don’t forget that the Wei Family started like this back then. They destroyed the Dong Family and established the Wei Family. Back then, when something happened to the Fu Family, many assets were temporarily under your Auntie’s name.”
“In the end? Your Auntie and Uncle were schemed against and both died. Your newborn cousin also died for you, which is why those people didn’t look for the only child of the Fu Family, which is you! Have you forgotten these things? Can’t we treat others like this when they treat us like this?” Li Sheng’s tone became resentful and indignant.
Wei Ji said gloomily, “But the people who treat us like this are the Wei Family and those big families. Lin Yin didn’t do anything wrong, did she? Aunt, I…”
With a slap, Aunt Li slapped Wei Ji hard and said angrily, “You didn’t do anything wrong? Don’t forget that it was Lin Yin’s mother who promised your mother that she would protect her and the child in her stomach. In the end, the news your mother sent got lost, so she fled with the newborn you.”
“Later, I received news that your Auntie was persecuted by the Wei Family.
Your parents carried you to save your Auntie, but they were chased. Your Auntie gave birth prematurely, and your cousin died not long after he was born. Your cousin, Ah Xuan, was a fool from birth! These are all evil things done by those big families!”
The hesitation in Wei Ji’s eyes gradually dissipated..
