Chapter 33: Calculation

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
This matter quickly spread to the Wen Corporation, and Wen Yan’s brother and father found out about it.
Wen Gui looked at his daughter, whom he had raised in his hands since young, and only a feeling of disappointment burned his rationality.
“Are you crazy or sick!? How could you do such a thing? It’s not like you haven’t seen the Wen Corporation’s current situation, but your brother and I chose to bear all of this by ourselves and didn’t let you shoulder it. And you’re treating us like this now?” Wen Gui shouted at Wen Yan, Wen Gui had never spoken harshly to Wen Yan since she was young.
As the saying went, if a poor son raised a rich child, Wen Xing would be brought up to suffer to temper his mind. However, Wen Yan was not. She had truly grown up under the care of her parents and family.
Wen Xing looked at his younger sister, who had loved to act coquettishly to him since she was young. For a moment, he felt that he did not recognize her.
Wen Yan still raised her head proudly. Facing her father and brother’s questioning, she did not say a single word. Tears also welled up in her eyes, but they never came out.
Seeing his younger sister like this, Wen Xing, her older brother, felt even more uncomfortable. But, in the end, he still pleaded with Wen Gui, “Father, perhaps my younger sister has some unspeakable reasons for doing this. So let’s not force her first.”
Wen Gui looked at Wen Yan’s appearance. Although his heart had softened, he still spoke with a firm tone, “What unspeakable reasons could she have? Your mother and I have never let her suffer a single bit since she was young.
“If we want her to stay by our side, we have planned the best route for her. We have hired the most expensive private tutor and allowed her to attend the best school. We have never forced her to do anything. We only hope that she can stay by our side peacefully and steadily.”
Wen Gui choked up for a moment before continuing, “In the end, how did she treat us? If it wasn’t for the fact that she’s a family friend of the Gu family and that the Gu family has watched Wen Yan grow up since she was young, I’m afraid that the next time we see her, she’ll be in the police station!”
Wen Gui looked at his daughter’s sad expression and felt terrible. Nevertheless, he was prepared to comfort her after a few more words.
However, when he finished speaking, Wen Yan glared at him. She, who had been silent all this while, yelled at Wen Gui like an unreasonable woman. “You know that you manipulated my life? Then have you ever thought about my own thoughts and feelings? Did you really think about me for my own good?”
This was the first time Wen Yan had resisted her father so fiercely and had lost all reason.
As the head of the family, Wen Gui felt that his authority was being challenged and questioned after hearing this. So he raised his hand and slapped Wen Yan’s face.
This time, Wen Gui did not even listen to Wen Xing’s advice. Instead, he pointed at Wen Yan’s nose and cursed, “How else do you want us to understand you? Do you want us to hand over our lives to you so that we can understand your thoughts? The Wen family is no longer the same as before. On the surface, the Gu family has always respected us and put us first. However, do you know how much danger lies behind it? You only care about playing with your childish temper!”
Wen Yan’s tensed nerves finally could not hold it in any longer. She burst into tears. “I hate Fang Qing. I hate that she’s a woman from the countryside. What right does she have to be liked by Gu Cheng?”
After saying that, she ran out of the house without turning back.
The father and son in the house were both looking at each other with puzzled expressions.
Wen Yan liked Gu Cheng?
Wen Gui seemed to have thought of something. The dark clouds on his face relaxed once again, revealing a scheming smile.
Wen Gui looked at his son with dissatisfaction. “Wen Yan likes Gu Cheng. Why didn’t you tell me?”
Wen xing replied innocently, “I didn’t know either.”
Wen Gui laughed out loud. That’s right, which young girl did not have a heart full of love. Wen Gui’s image of his daughter appeared in his mind. Compared to when she was young, she was indeed graceful and beautiful.
Since it was his daughter who liked him, then it could not be considered forced. On the contrary, it was really letting that rascal, Gu Cheng, off easy.
However, that Fang Qing… Wen Gui had been trying his best to search for her memories in his mind. Finally, he discovered that she was the woman from the meeting that day. She was indeed quite capable.
However, if she was in the way of him and his daughter, then she could only be considered unlucky.
Wen Xing did not know what his father was thinking. He was still shocked by what he had just heard from Wen Yan. No wonder Wen Yan had never had a boyfriend in all these years. It turned out that she liked Gu Cheng.
Both father and son had their own considerations because they had the same girl.
