An unexpected proposal had messed up everything.
Zhuo Shiyao didn't dare to reject him openly. She could only try to fool Wei He with vague excuses. Who knew that he would put the ring on her finger directly? The next day, he asked her to bring her child to live in the Wei family's old mansion, which represented the Wei family's wife.
There, he saw Wei He's child from his ex-wife.
That child was only about ten years old at the time, but his temperament was as mature as an adult's. He was polite and had a sense of distance that others could not match.
Even an adult like Zhuo Shiyao couldn't handle him, let alone a child like Wei Jing. He wanted to talk to his good-looking older brother, but the other party kept looking at him with disgust and refused his advances. Gradually, Wei Jing didn't dare to approach him. He just stared at his older brother like an abandoned pet.
Although Zhuo Shiyao lived in the Wei family's old mansion, she still went out often. She was busy comforting Chen Kun. She was angry and anxious. She didn't understand why things kept changing.
Both of them drank a little. Zhuo Shiyao thought that Wei He was on a business trip and wouldn't be back for a while, so she brought Chen Kun to the small apartment she used to live in. The place was well-hidden and there weren't many people around. The two of them whispered sweet nothings and slowly rolled onto the bed.
Wei He's arrival scared them to death. Zhuo Shiyao picked up her small suitcase and packed her things. She wanted to run away with Chen Kun.
It was early in the morning and the sky was dark. Their tired bodies and alcohol made them sleepy.
Chen Kun drove the car. Zhuo Shiyao sat in the passenger seat. Her eyes were full of fear. "Are we leaving just like that? What about the child? "
"Isn't that Wei He's child? Anyway, it's in the Wei family now. Even a vicious tiger won't eat its cubs. Let's leave it there for now. If there's a chance in the future, we'll see if we can bring it out … "Chen Kun said.
"But …" Zhuo Shiyao raised her head and said with difficulty, "… I don't know if it's your child or his."
The child was already five years old. She had been living a blissful life. Until now, she still didn't know whose bloodline the child was.
This sentence was like a clap of thunder, which directly stunned Chen Kun.
In just a few seconds, their tired drivers collided with the drunk driver's car. None of the three people were saved.
At that time, Wei He and Zhuo Shiyao's wedding invitation had been sent out, but they hadn't registered their marriage yet. The first person the hospital informed was Zhuo Shiyao's mother. When Wei He found out about the situation and rushed to the hospital, the three of them had already been pushed to the morgue.
She was as beautiful and seductive as Helen when she was alive! After her death, her body was smashed into pieces. One could only see her beauty from the half of her face that was still intact.
Wei He suddenly felt like laughing.
He didn't know if it was for himself or for her.
Zhuo Shiyao's father had passed away a few years ago. Her mother wasn't related to her by blood, so they weren't close. Her half-brother had just graduated from university. Due to the age gap, the two of them could only exchange a few words. They didn't have anyone who truly understood them.
Her stepmother and brother's thoughts were very clear. They could buy Zhuo Shiyao a grave in their hometown, but they couldn't let them raise the child.
In women's words, their son was still so young. If he raised a child, which girl would be willing to marry him in the future?
Wei He just let Wei Jing's household register remain with them. He bought the grave in B City, and the location was very good. He watched as Wei Jing's ashes were buried in the soil. After a few days of silence, he secretly took Wei Jing's hair to do a paternity test.
The other party wasn't his child.
Actually, it didn't matter. After all, he had a bunch of children. It didn't matter if he had one more or one less. However … this child was proof that Zhuo Shiyao had betrayed him. This fact constantly reminded him of this fact every time he saw him.
Unfortunately, everyone in B City knew that a child had been brought to the Wei family's old mansion. A young and beautiful woman had died in a car accident just as she was about to become Mrs. Wei.
It was enough to be a topic of conversation for a long time.
So Wei He couldn't send the child away, at least not in this time of crisis.
If this matter was exposed, Wei He would have a hard time dealing with it.
But now … Wei Jing silently looked at the black-and-white report in front of him. After a long time, he wiped his tears and walked out of the private room. He pursed his lips and looked at the expectant eyes of the two old people. "I'm sorry, I can't answer you now. Can I think about it for a few days?"
"It's okay, it's okay. Take your time to think about it. We have time," the old lady hurriedly replied when she heard her grandson speak.
The old man also hurried over to comfort Wei Jing. They chatted for a while and even exchanged phone numbers. That afternoon, Wei Jing lied to the teacher for the first time. He said that he wasn't feeling well and wanted to take a day off.
Wei Jing had a good reputation in school. He was well-behaved and had good grades. The teacher comforted him and asked him to rest well and not tire himself out.
He returned to his and his older brother's apartment. He looked at the potted plants they had planted together, the sofa they had chosen together, and the computer they had bought together … They had decorated this small space together. It was like a real home.
But … he was no longer her family.
Wei Jing rubbed his sore nose. He thought about not telling his older brother about this. This way, he could always stay by her side.
Was he going to lie to his older brother again? Was he going to lie to his older brother again?
He was extremely upset. He wished he could go back to two months ago and not participate in the competition. That way, no one would come looking for him. He didn't know about his family background and could stay here all the time.
He felt like a little bad guy. Not only did he steal Wei Zhe's love for his' younger brother ', but he also tried to steal it away from him.
Wei Zhe had asked someone to keep an eye on the old man's situation. Today, when he heard someone report that they had been in contact with Wei Jing and that his stupid younger brother didn't go to class in the afternoon, he knew that — — their non-blood relationship had been exposed.
It was time to comfort his stupid rabbit.
Wei Zhe smiled casually. Without the obstruction of blood relations, he could openly embrace her in his arms. He could always protect her and give her the greatest care … They would be the closest people in the world. Even if they died, they would be buried in the same grave.
It was two or three o 'clock in the afternoon. The traffic on the road was not crowded. Wei Zhe arrived home quickly.
When he entered the apartment and walked through the door, he saw the young boy sitting on the edge of the bed with red eyes. He was holding a pink pentagram in his arms. Oh! He glanced to the side and saw the pentagram's gay friend, SpongeBob SquarePants, standing by the bed with his usual silly smile.
He walked over and half-squatted by the boy's feet. He raised his head and looked at the boy. This was a gesture of weakness. "Why are you crying again? Who bullied you? "
"No … No one bullied me." Wei Jing shook his head. His eyes were filled with water droplets that would shatter at the slightest touch, like a high-quality black glazed gem. His lie was as clumsy as ever. "I-I just had a bug in my eyes."
Wei Zhe didn't expose him. He held the boy's soft little hand and said worriedly, "I heard that you weren't feeling well, so I rushed over from the company. Do you want me to call a doctor?" He naturally knew that Wei Jing was not sick.
"No … No need. I just have a headache. I'll be fine after a while," Wei Jing said.
"Then I'll sleep with you."
Without waiting for the other party to reject, Wei Zhe carried the child onto the bed and took off his jacket. There were dark circles under his eyes. "I've been very tired recently. Why don't the two of us rest together? Let's go out for dinner later, okay? Let's eat your favorite sweet and sour pork ribs. "
"Okay." Wei Jing wrinkled his nose and hugged his big brother's strong waist.
It would be great if they could continue like this.
The two of them fell asleep in each other's arms. After a long time, Wei Jing whispered tentatively, "Big Brother, if … I'm saying if, I'm not your biological brother, will you still love me so much?"
"Ha …" Wei Zhe opened his eyes and chuckled softly. His words were so sweet that it made one's heart melt. "Even if you're not my brother, I've raised you for so many years. How are you any different from my real family?"
Family! Not only was he a brother, but he also had a lover!
"Mm." Wei Jing heaved a sigh of relief. It was good that his big brother didn't despise him.
As for not being related by blood and not having the right to inherit?? That wasn't a problem? Anyway, he had never thought of fighting with his big brother for property. It was his life's dream to be a small painter peacefully.
Then … then he would tell his big brother in a few days.
Anyway … his big brother didn't care whether he was his biological brother or not.
With no more worries, Wei Jing's brows relaxed completely. He was secretly delighted. He didn't expect his big brother to care about him so much. He could even tolerate this kind of thing? Then … then he could be disobedient in front of his big brother?
With a faint doubt, Wei Jing slowly fell asleep in the young man's warm embrace.
When he woke up again, the night had already spread.
Wei Zhe kept his word and brought the boy to a private restaurant. The outside of the restaurant was inconspicuous, but the inside was a different world. It was dazzling with gold and jade, and one could tell at a glance that it was a place for the rich to squander money.
Wei Jing followed his big brother to a secluded place. There was a thin screen that separated this place from the rest of the restaurant. Wei Zhe ordered a few dishes, all of which were Wei Jing's favorite. He smiled so widely that his eyes narrowed.
"Little fool, what are you so happy about?" Wei Zhe teased him on purpose.
"No … nothing." How could he have the nerve to say that he was happy because his big brother cared about him? It was too … too embarrassing.
Wei Zhe teased him for a while. Just as the two of them were waiting for the dishes, an uninvited guest came.
It was a woman with a graceful figure. She had pure and lovely long black hair. She wore a sky blue long-sleeved dress that accentuated her slender waist and long legs. She had big almond-shaped eyes, a high nose bridge, and a small pink mouth that was slightly pouty. Men couldn't help but look at her.
Although Wei Jing's location was blocked by a screen, if someone walked to the left, they would be able to see him.
Song Wenhua came over for dinner with her friends. She didn't expect to see Wei Zhe here. After parting ways with Wei He at the banquet that day, she still felt a little regretful. Currently, Wei Zhe was the only one who was similar in age to her, had a good family background, was handsome, and was capable.
After all, the two of them were both 18 years old this year. Those who were similar in age to her were still in school.
Wei Zhe was the only one who had successfully started a business and was in charge of a listed company. The Wei family could be said to be in the limelight in the upper-class social circle now. Who would talk about the Wei family now? Wouldn't Wei He have a successor?
From Song Wenhua's position, she could only see the faint smile on Wei Zhe's face. His eyes were full of doting love that could drown a person. She couldn't help but sink into his eyes. Who was the person opposite Wei Zhe? Was it someone he liked? With these questions and curiosity, she held her friend's hand and walked over.
"Long time no see, Mr. Wei." She smiled gently. When she looked across, a trace of disappointment flashed across her eyes. What! Was it just a little boy?
"Long time no see." Wei Zhe was a little displeased with this woman who suddenly interrupted his intimate time with Wei Jing. However, he still had to greet her politely. "Are you here for dinner with your friend?"
"Yes! I just didn't expect to meet Mr. Wei so coincidentally. "Song Wenhua said gracefully," This is my friend, Xu Min. "
The woman beside her was her roommate in university. Although the two of them weren't very close, they still had a good relationship. Occasionally, they would go out for dinner and shopping together. At least, they had a companion.
"Hello."
At 18 years old, it was the age when one first awakened to love. The girl named Xu Min blushed. She was so shy that she didn't dare to look at Wei Zhe. It was obvious that she was just a little girl.
A hint of jealousy flashed across Wei Jing's heart. He felt that it wasn't good for him to be like this. It was normal for his older brother to have someone who liked him. Moreover, his sister-in-law from his previous life was here. No matter what, he had to curry favor with her. Hence, he took the initiative and said, "Miss Song, right? If you don't mind, why don't you stay for dinner? "
Song Wenhua glanced at the little boy and then looked at Wei Zhe. If this person didn't say anything, it wouldn't be good if they sat down and annoyed him.
However, since Wei Jing had spoken, what else could Wei Zhe say?
Even though he wanted to chase everyone away, he could only smile and agree for the sake of his younger brother's face.
