Chapter 362: Chapter 362 How Can The Lady Be Like This
After finishing, he seemed worried that Shi Yaoguang might misunderstand, and he quickly explained, "The reason I have shares of the Wei Family is due to the position I hold. Without sufficient shares to command respect, it’s hard to lead effectively."
"This issue can be resolved once the new heir is in place."
Having finished his lengthy speech, he looked eagerly at Shi Yaoguang, waiting for her response.
Shi Yaoguang did not disappoint his expectations and quickly provided an answer.
"I’m willing to go back and take over the Wei Family."
A fleeting trace of joy flashed through Wei Jinyan’s eyes, invisible were also a slight relief and resignation.
However...
Clearly, his happiness had come too soon.
Shi Yaoguang was willing to agree, but not because she wanted to lighten his load.
She looked at him and smiled, "If I remember correctly, you just said if I need it, you would stay to help me."
The man nodded, with firm conviction, "Yes, I am willing to stay."
Shi Yaoguang nodded in satisfaction, "Very well, I understand."
With that, she stood up.
Wei Jinyan watched her puzzled, "What are you doing?"
"I have things to deal with."
Saying so, she paused, "Are you coming with me?"
The man hesitated for a moment, then took a step forward, following her.
Shi Yaoguang led him straight back to Quan Mansion.
The car stopped at the entrance of Quan Mansion, but Wei Jinyan showed some hesitation.
Shi Yaoguang, seeing his behavior, was somewhat puzzled, "What’s the matter?"
Wei Jinyan cleared his throat, "I...is it really okay for me to just go in like this?"
"What’s wrong with it?" Shi Yaoguang didn’t see a problem.
With her relationship with Quan Jinbei, she treated Quan Mansion as her own home.
To bring someone back to her home, Shi Yaoguang felt no pressure at all.
Seeing she didn’t grasp his concern, Wei Jinyan hesitated a bit, before he said, "That’s not what I mean."
"Then what do you mean?"
Shi Yaoguang finished speaking, then her eye twitched, "You...surely don’t think it’s inappropriate to meet my man like this, do you?"
Wei Jinyan, with a conflicted nod, "After all, it’s our first meeting; the necessary sense of ceremony should not be lacking."
Shi Yaoguang: "..."
She didn’t know whether to be speechless or to laugh.
Watching the conflicted Wei Jinyan, she pressed her forehead, then with a flick of her wrist, she took out a gift box.
"Here."
With that, she handed the gift box to him.
Wei Jinyan held the gift box, slightly stunned, "This is?"
Shi Yaoguang cracked a smile, "A gift."
"...For me?"
He asked uncertainly.
Shi Yaoguang shook her head, "This is a gift I’m lending to you. You feel awkward going in empty-handed, right? I lend you the gift, later on you can just return it to me."
Now it was Wei Jinyan’s turn to be speechless, "Why do I feel like you’re just taking advantage without giving anything in return?"
Shi Yaoguang raised an eyebrow, pretending to take the gift back, "So what you mean is, I’ve prepared this gift for nothing, and you don’t need it?"
"No..." Wei Jinyan quickly protected the gift with his hands, "I need it."
Even if it was a gift out of thin air, he would still give it.
The first visit should not be made empty-handed.
...
The two of them were dilly-dallying at the entrance of Quan Mansion, which made the butler, who was observing everything, quite anxious.
As a close witness to the progress of the master and mistress’s romance, to call him a fan of the couple wouldn’t be an overstatement.
Originally, Quan Jinbei’s health had been gradually improving, and at home, he could even walk on his own, no longer needing a wheelchair.
Somehow, in the past few days, the health of the third master seemed to worsen again.
It made him worry endlessly.
And at this exact moment, the mistress brought a man back from outside.
How could the butler not be concerned?
Especially seeing them tugging and pulling at each other, his heart was in a constant state of flux.
He was thinking...
Why is the mistress like this?
"Is Madam showing disdain for Third Master?"
"Does Madam want to put a green hat on Third Master?"
"What is Third Master to do?"
"Third Master is truly too miserable."
"The green hat was just plunked right on his head."
"What are you looking at?"
"I’m looking at Madam putting a green hat on Third Master—"
When the butler heard the question, he almost subconsciously answered.
After finishing his words, he finally realized what he had said.
At the same time, it belatedly dawned on him that there were only him and the Third Master at home.
The person who had just asked the question was obviously not himself.
It could only be Third Master.
Third Master is here...
The butler licked his lips, turned around with a sheepish smile, his hands shaking Parkinson-like, "Third Master, Third Master, please listen to my explanation, I didn’t say anything... no no no, I didn’t see anything, please don’t misunderstand."
"You didn’t see anything?"
"Yes, yes, yes!" the butler kept saying, "I really didn’t see anything, Madam didn’t do anything, please don’t misunderstand, Madam is wholeheartedly devoted to you."
"Huh," Quan Jinbei chuckled lightly, "Your expression doesn’t seem to say that."
The butler’s face froze.
If his expression didn’t say it, then what should he say?
Should he directly say that he saw Madam possibly cuckolding Third Master because he was ultimately impotent?
Even the butler himself thought it was cruel.
Extremely cruel.
Even though the butler was thinking wholeheartedly that he must not let Third Master find out.
He must not let Third Master discover this cruel truth.
But...
Quan Jinbei read everything from his expression that said it all.
Keep it secret?
Non-existent.
The butler was constantly very carefully observing Quan Jinbei’s mood, for fear that he might do something rash in a thoughtless moment.
Quan Jinbei gave him a glance, "Butler, do you know what feeling you’re giving me right now?"
The butler timidly asked, "What feeling?"
"You..."
Quan Jinbei opened his mouth, but in the end didn’t voice the thoughts in his heart.
The more Quan Jinbei acted like this, the more concerned the butler became.
What’s wrong with Third Master?
Is the shock too much for him that he doesn’t even want to speak anymore?
This won’t do.
Third Master’s health was already poor, and even if Madam had other thoughts, she couldn’t be so blatant about it!
The butler had previously thought that Madam was a good person.
Now it seemed he had thought too highly of Madam.
No.
Absolutely not.
He must protect Third Master well and keep a close eye on Madam.
He would protect the best marital relationship in the world!
The calculations in the butler’s mind were known to no one.
Quan Jinbei felt that he couldn’t let him continue to fantasize like this.
Otherwise...
He didn’t know what else the butler could possibly fabricate.
But...
Before he could stop him, the butler had already rushed out.
Quan Jinbei’s health was really not good, and so, he was unable to stop him for a while.
He could only watch helplessly as the butler dashed toward the door.
In Shi Yaoguang’s bewildered expression, he spoke out, "Madam! You can’t do this, Third Master is sick!"
