Chapter 213: Chapter 213: Be Sure to Bring Her Home

"What’s wrong with my Qingqing? She’s perfectly fine, and doesn’t need your meddling! Since you don’t acknowledge me as your daughter, then stop bothering about my affairs, I certainly don’t need you to remind me of anything!"

After Wei Lan said this, she hung up the phone with a "snap".

Even though Shi Yiqing didn’t hear what Father Wei had said, from Wei Lan’s response, she could guess the gist of it.

She immediately looked delightedly at Wei Lan, her eyes reddening as she said, "Thank you, Mom, for standing up for me like this."

"Silly girl, what are you talking about? I’m your mother, isn’t it only natural for me to protect you?"

Even so, Shi Yiqing understood in her heart.

What Wei Lan did indicated she had made a choice.

Just from the way she answered the phone, one could easily notice her longing for paternal love.

But when her biological father slandered her adoptive daughter, Wei Lan did not hesitate to stand on her side.

How could Shi Yiqing not be moved?

"Mom, I really love you so much." Shi Yiqing threw herself into Wei Lan’s arms again, "As long as you don’t send me away, I will stay by your side for the rest of my life, and go nowhere else."

Wei Lan stretched out her hand and tousled her hair, an affectionate expression on her face: "Silly girl, when you grow up, you will eventually get married. As long as you can come back to see Mom now and then, that’s enough for me."

While the Shi Family was showcasing a deep mother-daughter bond, the Wei Family’s atmosphere was somewhat gloomy.

"Father, what did sister say?"

Wei Jinyan’s concerned expression did not seem feigned.

This was indeed his true emotion.

He was an adopted son taken in by the Wei Family, two years older than Wei Lan.

Initially, Father Wei had the idea of having Wei Lan marry him.

After all, he was well-known to them, and Father Wei was very confident in Wei Jinyan’s character.

But Wei Lan was a blockhead.

She managed to mishandle a good hand because of her love-struck brain, dragging down the entire family with her.

Wei Jinyan shared the same attitude as Father Wei.

They both were very disappointed in her.

But at the same time, he also held hope.

If Wei Lan’s child could be raised well, it wasn’t impossible for her to come back and inherit the family business.

But alas...

The behavior of Shi Yiqing was just as bad as her mother’s.

Upon hearing Wei Jinyan’s words, Father Wei gave him a long, cool look and then said, "You have no sister."

Wei Jinyan paused, his gaze subconsciously dropping, "Father, but... Wei Lan is ultimately your biological daughter."

"Biological daughter?" Father Wei snorted coldly, "Such a biological daughter, if I give her to you, would you want her?"

Wei Jinyan felt slightly awkward; he coughed softly and immediately said, "Ahem, Father, you seem to have forgotten, I am for marriage-free ideology; I won’t have a daughter."

Father Wei gave him a glance, "Just say it if you despise her."

Wei Jinyan: "I despise her."

Father Wei: "..."

After a moment of silence, he said to Wei Jinyan, "Enough with the nonsense, I am almost certain now that Wei Lan has truly gone blind."

Wei Jinyan’s eyes showed a glimmer of shock, "Father, what do you mean by that?"

"Exactly what it sounds like."

After finishing his words, Father Wei touched his forehead, "Well, it’s not like I didn’t know about her blindness from day one. This is actually good; it’s like leaving a promising seed for the Wei Family."

Wei Jinyan raised an eyebrow, "Father means to say that you have already set your sights on my little niece?"

"Otherwise?" Father Wei glared at him, "This time you go in person, make sure you bring Yaoguang back home."

Wei Jinyan nodded, "Rest assured, I guarantee the mission will be accomplished."

...

Shi Yaoguang had no idea that someone had been ordered to bring her back.

She was speechless at the moment.

The reason was...

Last time she drew a pheasant on the blackboard outside the special talent class during Tang Jiu’s live stream.

There shouldn’t have been anything wrong with that.

The problem was, she blurted out that she was giving the pheasant to Tang Jiu.

At that time, Tang Jiu didn’t react much, and she just treated it as a casual comment and moved on.

Who knew.

Tang Jiu would pull such a stunt.

He spent a fortune to buy the blackboard at the entrance of the special talent class.

The clanging noise outside the special talent class today was the handiwork of the construction team hired by Tang Jiu.

How the other students reacted is hard to say, but Shi Yaoguang was dumbfounded.

He couldn’t be so mentally fragile that he’d turn crazy just from being squeezed out by her, right?

Or perhaps, did he do this just to get on her nerves?

Shi Yaoguang thought of countless possibilities in her mind, but the one thing she didn’t consider...

Was that Tang Jiu bought the blackboard, truly for the pheasant on it.

And what she didn’t expect even more was that Tang Jiu actually went through with the bold move and auctioned off the pheasant she drew for an exorbitantly high price.

"Yaoguang, you still don’t know? That bastard Tang Jiu is simply inhuman, doesn’t he have a clue about what kind of relationship you have with him? Can you believe he shamelessly auctioned your pheasant, and it sold for fifty million!"

Mu Tiantian was telling her this, still indignant, "Even if he spent a million to buy our classroom’s blackboard, he still made a profit of forty-nine million!"

Looking at Mu Tiantian’s pained expression, Shi Yaoguang glanced down, "Then I’ll draw you a pheasant, and you can bid against him?"

Her words were mostly in jest, but Mu Tiantian’s reaction was unexpected.

She suddenly looked up, her face lighting up with surprise as she stared at Shi Yaoguang, her eyes sparkling.

"Yaoguang, are you serious? You’ll really draw a pheasant for me?"

Shi Yaoguang’s mouth twitched, "I’ll draw for you, no need to get so excited."

Mu Tiantian verbally agreed, but her expression remained exaggerated.

Shi Yaoguang was at a loss.

Mu Tiantian’s voice wasn’t quiet, and the whole class heard her.

Therefore, her classmates looked at her with shining eyes.

"Um..."

"Shi Yaoguang, you... you..."

"Oh come on, can you stop hemming and hawing? It’s not like you’re confessing your love!"

Gao Wenlan pushed aside the hesitant people in front, and cheekily said to Shi Yaoguang: "Yaoguang, can you draw a pheasant for us too?"

Shi Yaoguang: "??"

She looked around at everyone, full of question marks, "What’s with this obsession?" Do you all like pheasants that much?

Or is it that the pheasant isn’t the same one she remembered anymore?

Faced with Shi Yaoguang’s expression, some scratched their heads, some gazed skyward, but no one explained.

Just as Gao Wenlan was about to come up with an excuse, Shen Huan cut in.

"What kind of obsession could they have? They’re just desperate for money."

Everyone fell silent.

Shen Huan was right, they did want to make money.

Even though every student in the special talent class came from either a wealthy or a noble background.

But still!

There were limits to their allowances too.

If possible, who would think money is too hot to handle?

Feeling a bit embarrassed about their motivations being revealed by Shen Huan, just then, they heard him add another clever touch.

All they heard him say was, "Even if you’re going to draw a pheasant, you must draw one for me first."

"After all, our relationship is rock solid, isn’t it?"

After saying that, Shen Huan even flipped his green hair, looking utterly ostentatious.
