Chapter 294 - 294: Havoc at the Wei Corporation
The hall of Wei Corporation bustled with people coming and going, attracting the attention of many onlookers.
Seizing the opportunity, Li Ke raised her voice even louder. “Absolutely right! Wei Feng built his fortune using our Wen family’s money. A million yuan to shoo away a beggar? He’s even trying to manipulate this million yuan to falsely accuse my niece. If this issue isn’t resolved, we won’t leave.”
In response to this, the two brothers standing behind Wen Xun also rose to their feet, and security guards began to encircle them.
Wen Xun felt a twinge of anxiety and sought refuge behind Li Ke. However, Li Ke displayed no fear and her voice grew even more resounding.
“Wen Yan, take out your phone and start that thing. Livestream! Livestream! Let everyone witness how the Wei family, despite its debts, is now summoning security guards to take aggressive action against us, right?”
Wen Yan was initially hesitant due to feeling embarrassed. However, with her anticipated future role as a young mistress here, she gathered her courage and started a live stream using her phone. She even spent 500 yuan to promote the stream.
On the opposing side, the security personnel from Wei Corporation had already begun ushering them out.
Wen Xing was taken aback by the sudden turn of events. Raising his voice, he called out, “Hold on, no fighting! We’ve come to return the money to Old Mr. Wei. I’ve handed over the passbook. We’re leaving now!”
Without further ado, Zhou Mei placed the passbook on the front desk.
Sensing the situation escalating, the secretary hastened over to intervene. “Sir and Madam, the chairman wishes to speak with you. Think about how this situation might negatively affect Miss Wen Nian. We’re all parents; naturally, we want the best for our children.”
However, her well-intentioned words had an unintended effect. At the mention of Wen Nian, Zhou Mei’s eyes welled up with tears. “You talk about considering the child’s well-being? Outwardly, you may appear concerned, but who knows what your true intentions are when you handed us this money?”
“At that time, we felt compelled to accept this money, living in apprehension ever since. And now, just as expected, it’s being used to falsely accuse my daughter! My daughter is the actual victim here!”
Witnessing his wife’s emotional state, Wen Xing quickly approached and draped an arm around her shoulders. He then addressed the secretary, “I’m here to give the money back in front of everyone. Tell Wei Feng and Wei Lai that since Wei Lai committed actions that harmed my daughter, he must bear the consequences. Just because he wields power and influence doesn’t mean he can bully regular people.”
The secretary wanted to stop him, but the security guards in the hall were already fighting with Li Ke’s two brothers. Li Ke also stopped the secretary.
“Tell Wei Feng to come out and see us. This issue can’t be resolved with a meager sum!”
Baffled by Li Ke’s unyielding attitude, the secretary, who had never encountered such an unreasonable woman, found herself stopped by Wen Yan. Moreover, Wen Yan’s live stream had amassed tens of thousands of viewers within minutes, with a cascade of virtual gifts pouring in.
The security guard also wanted to snatch the phone, but Wen Yan was broadcasting live and she was a little girl, so they didn’t dare take any drastic actions against her.
Throughout the afternoon, Wen Nian remained oblivious to the online situation. Her focus was fixed on her revision plan, as every minute counted.
After completing her final set of comprehensive practice papers, Wen Nian assessed the number of incorrect answers with satisfaction. Though perhaps not achieving a top score, if she continued at this pace, gaining entrance to the top class wouldn’t pose a problem.
Seeing her relaxed demeanor, Shen Jun then handed over his phone. “Take a look at your handiwork.”
Puzzled, Wen Nian took the phone and her mouth instantly opened into an “0”.
The video displayed Li Ke engaged in a scuffle with Wei Feng’s female secretary. Security guards had their clothing torn, and the situation had escalated to involve police intervention. There was even a high-definition pixelated photograph.
Wen Nian scrolled through the news on her phone once more. Never could she have imagined that Wen Yan would start a live broadcast, and that Wei Corporation would permit it to continue for over ten minutes.
When Wen Nian saw that Wen Xing and Zhou Mei had actually returned the money in public, her eyes turned red.
They hadn’t touched the money, primarily because they believed Wen Sheng’s death was connected to Wei Feng. While this money could potentially play a pivotal role in the future, they promptly returned it for her sake.
Online discussions were also picking up pace. Thanks to a straightforward strategy employed by Shen Jun, the anonymous post garnered hundreds of thousands of likes. Furthermore, a significant number of individuals concurred, suspecting that Wei Feng must have an ulterior motive..
