Chapter 18 Chapter 18 This Master Wen is also a ruthless character...
As Shao Jiayan drove to the Wen family's house, his mind was so active that it made his head hurt.
But sometimes he would think that this guy's train of thought was quite interesting.
[This is not right~ I remember clearly that when Wen Yan, the male supporting role, came online, he was bumped into by the villain who came home for the first time after many years away from home. Wen Yan didn't come last night? What's going on! ]
After thinking about it, Shao Jiayan still couldn't figure out why things didn't develop according to the original plot of the novel. Could it be that he, the little butterfly, accidentally flapped his wings at some unknown moment and changed the original plot?
This really left Shao Jiayan completely puzzled.
During the driving process, Shao Jiayan remained silent.
However, Si Yizhi, who was sitting in the back row and observing his expression quietly, was in a good mood.
Since things did not develop as Shao Jiayan knew, it means that the original plot can be changed.
Assistant Niu Ma couldn't figure out the reason, but Si Yizhi only needed to think about it for a while and he could figure it out.
Because originally he was going to accept Wen Kefan and give him a very important position in the Ark game. But this decision was temporarily changed because of the appearance of Shao Jiayan.
The reason why Wen Yan did not follow the original plot may be related to his own regret.
After all, even though Wen Kefan is Si Yiran's fiancé now, he has no blood relationship with the Wen family, and he has no real power, so he can't affect Wen Yan's position in the Wen family at all. But it's hard to say whether he will change his mind in the future.
Wen Kefan actually moved out to live alone after Wen Yan came back, but the small villa he lived in was not far from the Wen family. Now that the Chinese New Year was approaching, Wen's parents couldn't bear to let him spend the New Year alone, so they took him back early.
So this time when Si Yizhi came to see him, he went to the Wen family.
However, the Wen family still felt a little awkward about Si Yizhizi’s visit this time.
In the early years, their two families were neighbors, and Si Yizhi was also raised by Wen's parents. But now their son is not their biological son, and Si Yizhi is not the child favored by the Si family. When these two stand together, it is easy to make people think too much.
"Mr. Si, I've heard of your name for a long time, but this is the first time I've met you." Wen Yan is a person who tends to think too much.
After hearing from his non-blood-related brother that the eldest young master of the Si family was coming to visit, he took the initiative to offer to help with the reception.
Shao Jiayan, who was following behind Mr. Si, was holding a notebook in his hand, seemingly doing his job, but in fact he was quietly sizing up the legendary young master of the Wen family.
[Wow, this is the real young master... In the early stage, he was able to squeeze the protagonist so much that he could no longer stay in the Wen family where he grew up. This young master Wen is also a big shot. ]
[He looks gentle and kind, but he is actually not a good person. If he hadn't fallen in love with the protagonist later and decided to respect Si Yiran's choice, Wen Kefan's weak and delicate wife might not be able to defeat this ruthless man.]
Si Yizhi, who was standing by, also greeted the other party politely after listening to Assistant Niu Ma's evaluation of Young Master Wen.
When Young Master Wen finally arrived, Si Yizhi and Wen Yan had already started drinking their tea.
"Brother Si, when did you arrive? Why are you calling me?" Young Master Wen was dressed casually at home.
He was wearing childish home clothes and walking hurriedly.
Si Yizhi and Shao Jiayan, who knew his character well, were no longer surprised.
"We had already agreed to meet yesterday, and the meeting place is still at your house." Si Yizhi said indifferently, "My mistake, I thought I could just come to your house without saying hello."
Not knowing why Mr. Si was in a bad mood, Shao Jiayan lit a candle for his work partner in his heart, and then explained for him dryly, "Kefan, why don't you check your phone? I sent you a message before I came over..."
"Uh..." Wen Kefan scratched his head embarrassedly, "I'm sorry, I didn't check my phone. I finally got a holiday, I was so happy that I accidentally overslept."
Seeing him showing an unrepentant look, Wen Yan was displeased. However, in front of outsiders, he would not say anything to Wen Kefan.
So Wen Yan left the tea room space for them and let them talk about business first.
"Mr. Si, it's a rare visit. If you have time, I would like to ask you about the game engine." Not long after Wen Yan returned to the Wen family, he entered the Wen family's company with his excellent resume. Now he is in charge of the game branch and is a standard colleague of Si Yizhi.
However, compared with the rapidly growing Ark game, Wen's game company is not as famous.
"I'm afraid time is tight today. If you're free, Mr. Wen, can you wait until I'm done with this and then talk? Okay?" Si Yizhi was rather cautious towards this "very powerful supporting actor".
Although Wen Yan has not come to ask for a marriage exchange, he is not sure whether this person will still love Si Yiran in the future as Shao Jiayan thinks.
He doesn't want to make enemies unless necessary.
After exchanging business cards with Wen Yan, Si Yizhi began to discuss business with Wen Kefan.
It’s just that this young master is really not cut out for work. The travel itinerary he arranged looked terrible even to Shao Jiayan, who had never traveled before.
Si Yizhi looked at the itinerary he had made, his mind racing...
"Well, you give the information you collected to Shao Jiayan." Si Yizhi thought about it and felt that he couldn't rely on Wen Kefan for this matter. "I have to take care of family affairs in Beijing these few days. You are free anyway, so why not make travel plans with Kefan."
They didn't stay at the Wen family for long. After politely declining Wen Yan's invitation to stay for dinner, the two quickly said goodbye.
Shao Jiayan was a little confused and complained in his heart, [Why do you have to go to the Wen family so early in the morning? Can't you just talk about such a small matter over the phone or WeChat? ]
But what Shao Jiayan could not have imagined was that Si Yizhi's visit to the Wen family was not only to discuss business with Wen Kefan, but also to send a signal to the Beijing circle.
He came back with a smile.
Si Yizhi, who left his hometown at the age of 18 and almost never returned to Beijing, has become a stranger to the old people in this circle.
It would be difficult for him to come back without the help of his family.
"Mr. Si, are you going home?" Shao Jiayan asked hesitantly after coming out of the Wen family.
He was still thinking about the delicious daily meals of the Si family. To be honest, Shao Jiayan wanted to go back to the Si family for a working meal.
But Si Yizhi obviously didn't want to go back.
"That's not my home." Si Yizhi said lightly.
Shao Jiayan was embarrassed for a moment and didn't know how to respond.
"Yesterday my father asked me to give up the inheritance rights of the Si family and required me to transfer all of my grandfather's inheritance to Si Yiran free of charge." I don't know what Mr. Si was thinking. He actually talked about family matters with a little kid like him.
"Do you think I should agree to him?"
From an ordinary person's perspective, Mr. Si's biased request is definitely unreasonable.
But from the perspective of novel readers, if you want to help the villain escape from a dead end, the best way is definitely not to go against the protagonist.
[Why is Mr. Si asking me such a question? How should I answer? ]
Shao Jiayan brainstorms.
As an ordinary novel reader, Shao Jiayan racked his brains to think about how he could tactfully persuade Mr. Si to listen to his father and not argue with the protagonist.
"Mr. Si, I think your father must have his reasons for doing this." Shao Jiayan said carefully, "Why don't you have a good talk with your father? After all, they are brothers..."
But after he said this, Si Yizhi was silent for a long time.
Just as Shao Jiayan was wondering if he had said something wrong, the other party suddenly said, "It's almost noon, go back after lunch."
Si Yizhi seldom invites people to dinner on a personal basis.
This was the first time that Si Yizhi invited his subordinates to dinner alone, so when the two sat down in a high-end restaurant, they were a little embarrassed...
Because he had something to do in the afternoon, Si Yizhi asked Shao Jiayan to choose a restaurant in the commercial district near the Si family's old house for dinner.
It’s just that the restaurant chosen by Assistant Niu Ma, whose imagination is limited by poverty, is more...popular.
Si Yizhi likes light food, but Shao Jiayan really craves spicy food, so Shao Jiayan suggests that they go eat hot pot together.
"Order a double-flavored hotpot. I'll have the clear soup and you can have the spicy one." Shao Jiayan was almost moved to tears by his own wit.
Ever since they developed empathy, his and Mr. Si's living habits have become more similar, and Shao Jiayan has been getting a little impatient.
It just so happened that Mr. Si kept encouraging him to choose what he wanted to eat, so he got excited and said he wanted to eat hotpot.
"There are so many people." Shao Jiayan regretted it as soon as he said this. This reminded him of a funny animated picture he often used when surfing the Internet.
Although the Spring Festival is approaching, there are not many people shopping in this mall. However, at mealtime, the dining floor is crowded and you even have to wait for a table.
Two tall men, holding number plates in their hands, stared at each other in front of a famous hot pot restaurant.
Fortunately, Mr. Si has also worked his way up from the bottom of society, so he is not averse to this kind of restaurant that caters to the general public, and is also accustomed to waiting for a table.
"Wait a moment." If it were an ordinary day, Si Yizhi might choose to wait for a table or go to another store.
But looking at Shao Jiayan's eager eyes, he chose to add more money.
He spotted a college couple in the crowd waiting for a table, and then successfully exchanged their number tickets for two thousand yuan.
Ten minutes later, the two of them successfully sat down in the hot pot restaurant.
Then Shao Jiayan heard his boss, who was always serious, say, "Since you're here to eat hot pot, how about ordering you a cup of milk tea?"
Shao Jiayan was about to decline when Si Yizhi said, "You can add more sugar."
Soon, a cup of full-sugar milk tea and a cup of lemonade were served.
President Si placed the lemon tea next to Shao Jiayan and said, "Hurry up and finish your meal. We have a tough battle in the afternoon."
