Chapter 106 The Last Melon

Not long after Wen Yue entered the study, Chen Baoqin and Wen Jiadong also entered the room.

Chen Baoqin saw Wen Jiadong's dissatisfaction and wanted to enlighten him, but the latter was unwilling to listen to her and even felt that she was bought by Wen Rongsheng's sugar-coated bullets.

Originally, Wen Jiadong was just muttering in his heart, but after entering the empty room, he said all these words in a hurry.

Chen Baoqin's heart was instantly chilled!

She stood up suddenly, stared at Wen Jiadong and said, "What do you mean? What do you mean I was bought by your daddy's sugar-coated bullets?"

Seeing her face change, Wen Jiadong's eyes flashed with a little discomfort, turned his head and said, "I don't mean anything, but don't you think daddy is too partial? Wen Jiaxin hurt me so badly, but nothing happened to me."

Chen Baoqin also felt that Wen Rongsheng was partial before, but now she thinks it's okay.

Although the mother and daughter of the third room hurt Wen Jiadong, it was not a fatal injury after all. For this incident alone, Xu Meifeng would only be imprisoned for a few years at most, and as for Wen Jiaxin, it was doubtful whether she would be imprisoned.

Now Xu Meifeng is dead, and there can be no evidence for the drugging incident.

If Wen Rongsheng really favored Wen Jiaxin, he could just ignore them and continue to treat Wen Jiaxin as before and give her shares.

Of course, this doesn't mean that Wen Rongsheng favored them, but Chen Baoqin knew very early that Wen Rongsheng was not her husband alone, nor was he just the father of her child.

He could cover up the fact that they had killed Xu Meifeng, but he wouldn't watch them deal with Wen Jiaxin.

Chen Baoqin never had high expectations of Wen Rongsheng, so she accepted this result well, or she could say that this was the result she wanted from the beginning.

That's why she was surprised by Wen Jiadong's attitude.

She thought they had already reached a consensus, but she didn't expect him to suddenly get stuck in a dead end.

But she knew that it was useless to discuss with him whether Wen Rongsheng was biased or not at this time. He would not listen and could not listen. So she skipped the question and said, "I know you hate Wen Jiaxin, but I told you before that a gentleman's revenge is never too late. Life is long. You wait a little longer and don't be anxious, okay?"

"Wait, wait! You just know how to make me wait!" He

didn't know what Chen Baoqin said that touched Wen Jiadong's nerves. He raised his voice and shouted, "Xu Meifeng can kill Wen Kai for her daughter and drug me. Can't you avenge me?"

Chen Baoqin was stunned by the shouting. She widened her eyes in disbelief, her body trembling slightly, and her raised fingers were shaking: "Say it to me again?"

Wen Jiadong also knew that he was in the wrong. He didn't listen to her repetition of what she had just said. He pursed his lips and turned his head.

"You said I didn't avenge you, then who did I do all those things for?" Chen Baoqin pointed at Wen Jiadong and said, "You were not there that night. Don't you understand what Wen Jiaxin means? Or does she mean that as long as you can get revenge, it doesn't matter whether I go to jail or not?"

Wen Jiadong really thought so, but of course he couldn't admit it. He avoided Chen Baoqin's gaze and said, "Mom, I don't think so."

"You'd better not!" Chen Baoqin sneered, "If you really can't wait, just figure it out yourself! If you don't have the courage, just shut up!"

These words were a bit harsh, and Wen Jiadong frowned.

"You'd better think carefully. Do you want to continue arguing with your dad and make him completely disappointed in you, or do you want to please him so that he will give you more of his property before he dies!"

After saying that, Chen Baoqin didn't want to care about Wen Jiadong anymore. She walked towards the door. As soon as she opened the door, she saw Wen Jiaqi, who was lying on the door and eavesdropping, falling towards her. She supported her and asked, "What are you doing?"

"Cough cough."

Wen Jiaqi coughed twice and found fault, "Mommy, what are you talking about with Jiadong? Why don't you let me listen?" How

could Chen Baoqin dare to let Wen Jiaqi know these things. Her daughter was brainless and impulsive. If she found out today that she hired a murderer, it might spread throughout the city tomorrow.

Chen Baoqin did not answer, but pushed her out and said, "What can we say? Your brother is not in a clear mind. Let him stay here for a while." Then she pulled Wen Jiaqi away.

As the conversation ended, it was time for dinner, and the Wen family and the two lawyers went to the restaurant together.

Normally, except for Wen Rongsheng, everyone in the Wen family can be said to have gained a lot today, and they should be in a happy mood while eating. In fact, the situation is quite the opposite.

Not to mention Wen Yue and Wen Jiaqi, both of them are almost the same as usual, but Chen Baoqin, Wen Jiadong and Wen Jiaxin look uglier than each other.

This also led to a bad atmosphere at the dinner table. Wen Rongsheng was very comfortable, but the two lawyers were like sitting on pins and needles, and eating was like torture.

Halfway through the meal, Wen Jiadong put down his chopsticks, said with a stiff face, "I'm done," and left.

The Wen family became wealthy late, and their table manners are not as particular as those of century-old families, but generally, everyone will wait for Wen Rongsheng to pick up his chopsticks first before moving on, and wait until he finishes eating and leaves the table before others follow.

Wen Jiadong had a stern face throughout the meal, and left halfway through the meal. It was obvious that he was in a bad mood, or that he had something against Wen Rongsheng.

So after Wen Jiadong left, Wen Rongsheng's face also turned cold.

Chen Baoqin also felt resentful, so she did not help to smooth things over. She just said to Wen Rongsheng, "Don't worry about him, we'll eat our own food."

Wen Rongsheng did not refuse her and continued to eat.

Wen Jiaqi is usually very noisy, but she was very quiet this time. It was obvious that she had noticed the undercurrent between Wen Rongsheng and Wen Jiadong, and decided to play it safe.

Wen Jiaxin kept her head down the whole time, without looking up at the other people at the table. But the table was so small that she could see everyone with just the corner of her eye.

Although she didn't know how much Wen Rongsheng gave to Wen Jiadong, she knew without thinking that it would definitely not be less than what he gave her. And Wen Rongsheng would not just use real estate to get rid of Wen Jiadong like he did to her.

But it was obvious that Wen Jiadong did not appreciate it, and even had resentment towards him.

Resentment...

Wen Jiaxin's eyes flickered slightly, and she continued to eat.

...

Although Wen Jiadong and Wen Jiaxin were both dissatisfied, the Wen family did return to peace after the division of property.

It was hard to say whether it was really peaceful or just a superficial peace. After all, after Wen Jiadong left halfway through the meal that day, he never expressed his emotions again.

Wen Jiaxin also seemed to be devoted to her work. With the promise of Wen Rongsheng, she won several large orders in succession.

Chen Baoqin stopped quarreling with Wen Rongsheng, and the two of them got along better and better.

Wen Jiaqi moved back to the Wen family.

Yes, that's right, Wen Jiaqi moved back.

Although there is no conclusion on the fact that Wen Jiaxin drugged Wen Jiadong, she has already determined in her heart that this is true. As for the fact that Xu Meifeng was suspected of being murdered by her mother, she ignored it.

So in Wen Jiaxin's view, the situation is that Wen Jiaxin did such a serious bad thing, and Wen Rongsheng didn't say that he would break up with her, so what does her own thing matter? Why can't she live at home?

Although Chen Baoqin is satisfied with Wen Rongsheng's treatment of Wen Jiaxin and is not prepared to continue to make trouble with him. But she is not very satisfied with the fact that he wants to break up with Wen Jiaqi because she has poor taste and found a scumbag.

Therefore, Chen Baoqin did not stop Wen Jiaqi from moving back.

It happened that Wen Rongsheng was on a business trip during those days. When he returned home after work, Wen Jiaqi had already moved back and lived there for several days.

Among his children, Wen Rongsheng used to dislike Wen Jiaqi the most. He thought that this daughter was too stupid. Not only was she stupid, but she also had no self-awareness, which led to her always doing stupid things.

But now Wen Rongsheng thinks that being stupid has its advantages. At least she doesn't scheme against others.

In terms of character, Wen Jiaqi is actually not much better than Wen Jiadong and Wen Jiaxin. She always likes to stir up trouble, but her means of stirring up trouble are very low. She basically quarrels with people in a weird way, and she always loses the quarrel.

But it is better to quarrel openly than to play tricks behind the scenes like the third room did. Besides, no matter what bad things the mother and daughter of the third room did behind the scenes, they always had a smile on their faces, so you wouldn't even know that you were tricked.

Sometimes Wen Rongsheng was also puzzled. He asked himself why Wen Jiaqi would fall into the money eye if he had never wronged her.

But now think about it, it is better to fall into the money eye than to fall into the crooked way. And with her personality, it is easy to make her happy, just give her money.

Because of the change of mind, Wen Rongsheng did not object to Wen Jiaqi moving back.

Except for this incident that caused a commotion for a few days, the Wen family can be said to be peaceful during this period. No matter what they thought in their hearts, at least the second and third rooms maintained a balance on the surface.

The Wen family lived a peaceful life until Wen Rongzhi returned.

As you can see from the name, Wen Rongzhi is Wen Rongsheng's sister.

Although the Wen family lived a difficult life when they first came to Hong Kong, Wen Rongsheng was capable. He could earn money to support his family in his teens and saved a considerable fortune in his twenties.

Therefore, Wen Rongsheng's brothers and sisters did not have many hard times. Unlike Wen Rongsheng, who dropped out of school and went home because of financial difficulties before graduating from high school, both of them went to college.

It's just that Wen Rongsheng's brother was not in good health and died in his early thirties. He had never been married and had no children before his death.

Wen Rongsheng's sister Wen Rongzhi met the second young master of the Fu family after graduating from college, and fell in love with him and married him.

Wen Rongzhi got married in the mid-1960s. Although Wen Rongsheng had already made a name for himself in the Hong Kong business world, his assets were not comparable to those of the big families that had been entrenched in Hong Kong for decades or even hundreds of years.

In addition, he had become rich in a short period of time, and was always criticized as a nouveau riche.

At that time, the Fu family was one of the top families in Hong Kong, and her marriage to the second young master Fu was considered a high-class marriage, so Wen Rongsheng paid a lot of real estate and cash out of his own pocket for her dowry.

Of course, this money was not given for nothing. The Fu family had moved to Hong Kong for many years and had a deep foundation. There were many benefits to having a good relationship with them. The fact that Wen Rongsheng was able to do business so smoothly in those years was indeed due to the influence of the Fu family.

Because of all these reasons, Wen Rongsheng and Wen Rongzhi had a deep relationship. It was not until the 1970s when the Fu family moved to the United States that the brothers and sisters met less and less.

But their relationship did not fade. They would meet several times every year. Sometimes Wen Rongsheng would meet by the way when he went on a business trip to the United States, and sometimes Wen Rongzhi would return to Hong Kong.

In the past two years, Wen Rongzhi has rarely returned because she was not in good health. Therefore, Wen Yue has never seen this aunt since she came here.

However, Wen Yue has not seen her, which does not mean that Wen Rongzhi's return to Hong Kong is a big deal.

In fact, for everyone in the Wen family, Wen Rongzhi's return is a common thing. At most, Wen Jiaqi will be happier.

Because Wen Rongzhi was absolutely on Wen Rongsheng's side, she always treated her brother's children equally.

She would not look up to her because she was born to the main wife, nor would she look down on Wen Jiaqi and Wen Jiaxin, who were born to the third and fourth wives. She was not as patriarchal as Wen Rongsheng, who valued Wen Jiadong too much, and was even better to the girls.

Moreover, she was a big wife, and she would bring a lot of gifts to the Wen family every time she came back. The gifts for the girls were basically bags, and Wen Jiaqi liked bags the most besides money.

So normally, Wen Rongzhi's return would not disrupt this peaceful life.

If she came back alone, or only brought her husband and children.

But no, the person who came back with Wen Rongzhi was a young man named William Cheng, who looked at least 70% similar to Wen Rongsheng, if not exactly the same.

The moment they saw this young man, not only the two people in the second room looked surprised, but Wen Rongsheng also changed his expression. He unconsciously took two steps forward and asked, "Who is this?"

"His last name is Cheng, and his English name is William. He is an architect." Wen Rongzhi introduced Cheng William, then looked at him and said, "This is my eldest brother. I mentioned him to you before."

Wen Rongzhi's introduction seemed to be nothing, but everything was implied.

Not to mention that Cheng William and Wen Rongsheng looked too similar, just saying that she came back to visit relatives. If Cheng William was just a strange architect, why did she bring him to the Wen family?

The Wen family didn't need to build a house.

If Cheng William and Wen Rongsheng had no relationship, why did she mention Wen Rongsheng to him before? What's more, the look in Cheng William's eyes when he looked at Wen Rongsheng was restrained and hid a bit of admiration.

So as soon as Wen Rongzhi finished speaking, Wen Rongsheng became excited, looking at Cheng William with burning eyes and asked: "Mr. Cheng, where are you from?"

Cheng William replied: "My parents said that our family's ancestral home is in Guangdong Province. I stayed in Hong Kong for a period of time when I was a child, and went to the United States when I was about ten years old."

"Your parents..."

Wen Rongsheng wanted to ask if his parents were his biological parents? But when the words came to his lips, he felt it was not appropriate and swallowed them back.

Cheng William, however, understood the meaning of the song and took the initiative to say: "I always thought that I was their biological child, until some time ago I was told that I was adopted by them."

"Oh, how old were you when you were adopted?" Wen Rongsheng asked tentatively.

Cheng William smiled bitterly and said: "I don't remember."

Wen Rongsheng thought: "Don't remember?"

Cheng William lowered his eyes and said, "I fell into the water once when I was eight years old. After being rescued, I had a high fever and forgot everything from my childhood."

"Eight years old..."

Wen Rongsheng murmured. Before he could speak again, he heard Wen Rongzhi say, "Let's not stand at the door. Let's go in quickly."

Wen Rongsheng came to his senses and led a few people into the house.

It was not until the three of them walked into the living room that the mother and daughter of the second room came to their senses . Chen Baoqin screamed "Ah", looked down at Wen Jiaqi's hand pinching her back, and asked with a dark face, "What are you doing?"

"See if I'm dreaming." Wen Jiaqi said honestly.

Chen Baoqin rolled her eyes and asked, "Don't you know to pinch yourself if you want to know if you are dreaming?"

"Pinching yourself hurts." Wen Jiaqi said righteously.

Chen Baoqin almost choked up, thinking, "You know it hurts to be pinched, why do you pinch me?" She also felt that none of the two children she gave birth to were good and unreliable!

Before she opened her mouth, Wen Jiaqi asked, "Mom, what's going on? Could that Cheng William just now be your eldest brother?"

"How should I know?" Chen Baoqin frowned and said, "He looks like your dad when he was young. I don't know if it's just a coincidence or if they are really related."

If it was just a coincidence, it would be fine, but if they were really related...

Wen Jiaqi's eyes lit up, "Then does that mean Wen Yue can't inherit the Wen family?"

"Is that all you know?" Chen Baoqin glanced at Wen Jiaqi and said with a look of regret, "If he is really Wen Kai, it's hard to say whether Wen Yue can inherit the Wen family, but the property you can share will be reduced, do you understand?"

After Chen Baoqin's reminder, Wen Jiaqi felt that it was true.

The Wen family's wealth is like a cake, it's only so big, and with every additional person, everyone's share will be reduced by a few percent.

Thinking that her share might be reduced, Wen Jiaqi frowned and asked, "What should we do then?"

"It's not time for you to worry." Chen Baoqin lowered her eyes and said, "If he is really Wen Kai, the one who should be most worried is Wen Yue."

Don't talk about brothers and sisters working together to break gold. Brothers and sisters who grew up together may fight for the right of inheritance, not to mention Wen Kai who has been away for so many years.

Or if Wen Kai came back a year earlier, Wen Yue would not even come home much at that time, and they might not have a conflict over the right of inheritance.

But now, Wen Yue is only one step away from inheriting the Wen family. Suddenly, a Cheng Yaojin appears and blocks the Land Rover. Can she let it go?

Chen Baoqin thought, and walked into the living room.

But after entering, only Cheng William was there, and Wen Rongsheng and his sister were nowhere to be seen. Obviously, they went into the study to discuss in detail.

The content of the detailed discussion was naturally related to Cheng William. It was mainly Wen Rongsheng asking his sister how she knew Cheng William.

Although Cheng William looked very similar to him, his statement about his life experience matched Wen Kai's situation, and the amnesia after falling into the sea and being rescued could also explain why he had not contacted his family for so many years. But Wen Rongsheng was in this position and had seen everything.

Apart from other things, in the two years after Wen Kai disappeared, people sent false news every now and then. Some people just wanted to cheat some money and gave ambiguous news. Some people were greedy and swore that they had seen people.

In the end, he paid money, but what he got was disappointment again and again.

In fact, these are all good. The most outrageous thing was the time ten years ago when a young man who looked a bit like him when he was young came to his house and said he was his son.

When they met for the first time, Wen Rongsheng was almost fooled because of excitement. After a few more contacts, he found that the other party was not right. He hesitated when talking about his childhood, and he was irrelevant when talking about the incident of falling into the sea.

Wen Rongsheng found it strange and asked someone to check, only to find out that his life story was completely false. After further questioning, he learned that the other party accidentally heard about his son's disappearance, and happened to hear people say that he looked like him, so he had evil thoughts.

It was also because of this incident that Wen Rongsheng has reduced the publication of relevant information in newspapers in recent years.

If Cheng William had not come to the house with Wen Rongzhi, Wen Rongsheng would definitely not have been so excited just now. Because he trusted her, he was almost overwhelmed by the excitement and joy.

But in the end, it was just a little bit.

Wen Rongsheng quickly calmed down and proposed to talk to Wen Rongzhi alone.

Facing her brother, Wen Rongzhi did not hide anything and told her in detail about how she met Cheng William.

She met William Cheng because of his profession.

A friend of hers wanted to build a house and invited William Cheng to design it. After the house was built and moved in, her friend held a warm-house queue and both of them were invited to participate.

Wen Rongzhi said: "The moment I saw William, I felt like I went back to decades ago and saw you standing in front of me. You look so much alike, you really look so much alike..."

Although Wen Rongsheng did not see that scene, he could imagine Wen Rongzhi's expression at the time and asked: "Then what?"

"Then I chatted with him and asked about his family situation. He was reluctant to talk at first, but he told me the truth after we got to know each other better. He said he had just found out that he was not his biological son."

Wen Rongzhi clapped his hands and said, "It just so happened that you called me at that time and said that Akai was still alive. I thought at that time, he is the same age as Akai, and he is not his biological son, so could he be Akai? But I also found it strange. Akai was almost eight years old when the accident happened. How could he not remember me as his aunt at all? So I chatted with him again and found out that he had lost his memory before the age of eight."

Wen Rongsheng asked, "Are you sure he has lost his memory?"

"I'm not sure, but I guess he doesn't know who I am, so there's no need for him to lie to me, right?" Wen Rongzhi said, "And before returning to Hong Kong, I took him to do a paternity test."

Wen Rongsheng's eyes fixed: "Paternity test?"

"Well, I asked the doctor, and he said that paternity testing can also be done between relatives, but the matching degree is not that high. I think if he is Akai, it should be useful for him and I to do a paternity test." Wen Rongzhi said, opening the bag in her hand, took out a report and handed it to Wen Rongsheng, saying, "This is the result of the test."

Wen Rongsheng opened the document and turned directly to the back to see the result.

"His blood type is the same as Akai's, and the test results also show that we are related," Wen Rongzhi said, "I think if he is fake, it is impossible for all this information to match?"

Listening to Wen Rongzhi's words, Wen Rongsheng's eyes gradually blurred as he stared at the test results. Noticing the moisture in the corners of his eyes, he quickly took out a handkerchief from his pocket, wiped his eyes and said, "You are right."

Wen Rongzhi's face lit up: "Brother, do you also think William is Akai?"

"It's possible." Wen Rongsheng said after taking a deep breath, "But we have to wait until the results of the paternity test come out."

"Paternity test?" Wen Rongzi was stunned, and quickly smiled, "Brother, you should do a paternity test with William. It will be safer and you can have peace of mind."

After Wen Rongzi finished speaking, she glanced at the alarm clock on the wall: "But it's already very late today, why don't we wait until tomorrow to talk about the paternity test?"

Wen Rongsheng looked in the direction of her gaze, nodded and said, "Okay."

"Okay, I'll tell William later," Wen Rongzi thought about it and felt that it was inappropriate, "Should I hide this from him first?"

Of course, she said this not because she was afraid that Cheng William would worry, but because she was afraid that he would take action in advance and affect the results of the test.

Wen Rongsheng also had such concerns and said, "Keep it a secret." After saying that, he remembered something and added, "Don't mention this matter in front of other people in the family."

Obviously, he was not only wary of Cheng William, but also those people in the Wen family who he thought would not welcome Wen Kai back.

Understanding Wen Rongsheng's meaning, Wen Rongzhi said, "Don't worry, brother, I will definitely not reveal a word."

...

In order to welcome Wen Rongzhi back, a reunion dinner is naturally indispensable, and Wen Yue also received a call.

She had never met Wen Rongzhi, so naturally there was no relationship, but she would not refuse Wen Rongsheng's face in this regard, so she agreed to go home.

But she did not leave work early, so she and Yi Huai arrived when it was already dark.

Before getting out of the car, Wen Yue saw Wen Jiaqi standing at the door to greet her. Without thinking, she knew what this person wanted to do.

Sure enough, Wen Yue pushed open the car door, and Wen Jiaqi came up and asked slyly: "Do you know who is back?"

"My aunt." Wen Yue said calmly.

"And someone else."

Wen Yue pretended to be stupid and said: "Uncle."

"No, guess again."

Wen Yue ignored her and walked around her to go into the house.

Wen Jiaqi had to give up the suspense and caught up with Wen Yue and said: "Your brother is back! You told me before that even if Jiadong inherited the Wen family, it would have nothing to do with me. Now your brother is back, let's see what you are going to do?"

"It's okay."

Wen Yue laughed and walked into the Wen family side by side with Yi Huai.

As soon as she entered, Wen Yue felt that the Wen family was really lively today. Not only did Wen Jiadong and Wen Jiaxin come back, but there was also a middle-aged lady in her early fifties who looked like

she was in her early forties in the living room, as well as a young man who looked like a younger version of Wen Rongsheng. At this moment, the young man was looking at her with tears in his eyes.

The moment their eyes met, Wen Yue's mind rang with a system prompt: [Ding - there is a melon! ]

[Ding - there is a melon! ]

After two consecutive prompts, the system's urgent voice rang: [Host, Cheng William is not Wen Kai! ]
