“I met a friend abroad who also studied medicine. She returned to China recently and started working at the First Hospital. I've already spoken to her and asked her to take good care of Jiang Yan's mother. The other day, when she met Qin Yiheng, she even challenged him to a competition…”
Qi Wei, oblivious to the sudden change in expression on Chu Wei and Chu Ruolin's faces, continued excitedly, "I don't know what Qin Yiheng is so arrogant about, actually saying he wants his apprentice to compete against my friend. It's ridiculous! My friend just gave me the news..."
As he spoke, Qiwei showed his phone screen, which displayed his conversation with Fang Qian.
It was only at this moment that he noticed the strange expressions on the faces of the two people opposite him.
Even if you're shocked, shouldn't you be looking at it like this?
Is he worried that he might ruin something by acting on his own?
Or did my behavior go too far and upset them?
Qiwei couldn't help but feel a little worried, and his hand holding the phone trembled slightly, but he managed to control it.
"Hahaha!"
Chu Wei suddenly burst into laughter.
Qiwei hadn't quite figured things out yet, but he was definitely relieved. It seemed like his idea was brilliant, and they were stunned by it.
That's really brilliant.
For Chu Wei, this was like a godsend.
"I've heard about this too. The doctor's name is indeed Fang Qian, but I never expected that you were the one who stirred things up behind the scenes."
Chu Wei's tone of sudden realization further confirmed Qi Wei's conjecture. He immediately dispelled all his concerns and a smug smile appeared on his face.
Seeing her father like this, Chu Ruolin naturally assumed that he had some new plan, and immediately concealed her own expression.
In fact, Chi-Wei didn't care much about the expression on his face.
Since he was already living under someone else's roof and clinging to their coattails, it was better to cling to Chu Wei, who seemed to be a head above Chu Ruolin, so the psychological gap wouldn't be as big. Therefore, he was slightly arrogant when facing Chu Ruolin.
Chu Ruolin completely disregarded his idea.
In his view, Qiwei was nothing more than a competitor who was not worthy of being mentioned and would be kicked out sooner or later. There was obviously no point in comparing himself to such a person, lest he lower his own status.
"Haha, what a coincidence! I happen to know someone like that. How about we use him?" Qiwei chuckled along, then asked in a fawning manner, "Sir, how's my gift?"
"Okay, okay, okay!"
Chu Wei said "good" three times in a row, seemingly giving Qi Wei a great affirmation. Everyone present laughed, but each person's laughter was different.
Qiwei felt he had hit the nail on the head, successfully making Chuwei happy, which would make things easier for him in the future.
Chu Wei had his own plans, and he could indeed make Qi Wei "receive important positions" so that he wouldn't have to do anything personally anymore. Such a person was indeed someone he had to keep around.
Seeing his father happy, Chu Ruolin knew that it was good for him to enjoy the fruits of others' labor, and of course he was happy too.
"Just handle these things well, and I won't treat you unfairly if you do them well."
Chu Wei indeed seemed to be entrusting him with an important task, and Qi Wei responded repeatedly.
Seeing that there was nothing else to do, Qiwei took his leave.
As soon as he left, Chu Ruolin immediately asked, "Dad, are you trying to pin everything on him?"
Chu Wei looked at Chu Ruolin with some delight, then his expression turned to relief.
Excellent, this is what an heir should be like. He has already reached such a standard without even being taught by him. It is clear that Chu Ruolin is the one who should be in charge of the Chu family. He is far superior to Chu Ruoxue.
Since that's the case, then I should give them even better guidance.
Chu Wei sat relaxed on the sofa: "You heard what he said just now. He doesn't know about the relationship between Fang Qian and Dong Maoyu."
When Chu Wei met Qin Yiheng today, Qin Yiheng brought up a matter, and Chu Wei agreed to help him accomplish it.
The purpose of this matter is to expose the relationship between Fang Qian and Dong Maoyu when necessary, so that everyone knows what Fang Qian's competition is all about.
Chu Wei was somewhat surprised at the time. How did Qin Yiheng come up with this idea?
Qin Yiheng didn't explain much. Chu Wei originally wanted to investigate further himself. Just before Qi Wei came, he was instructing Chu Ruolin. He didn't expect to find out about Qi Wei and Fang Qian's relationship so quickly.
Anyone with common sense can see that Fang Qian has two things going on at the same time, so let's do it!
If anything goes wrong in the end, if Fang Qian is a smart person, she can always blame it on Qi Wei.
Where else can you find such a good thing?
But Chu Ruolin also had some of her own thoughts that she didn't quite understand.
"He didn't mention it, but that doesn't necessarily mean he didn't know, right?"
Chu Wei, however, was very certain: "No, he really doesn't know."
"Why?" Chu Ruolin was even more confused.
“You still don’t understand him enough. You don’t understand human nature enough either.” Chu Wei’s words were rather profound.
Given Qi Wei's personality, if he knew that Fang Qian and Dong Maoyu were uncle and nephew, and that Dong Maoyu had a long-standing feud with Qin Yiheng, then he couldn't possibly not have imagined that Fang Qian's current approach to Qin Yiheng was not due to this small connection.
Then he simply wouldn't say it.
Because there's nothing left to show off.
Moreover, he will definitely try to withdraw, lest he be bitten back by Fang Qian in the end.
Qiwei didn't seem like a very good person, but after Chu Wei met him a few times, he realized that Qiwei wasn't so foolish as to be someone else's scapegoat.
This can be seen from his previous attempt to use Han Mingrui to deal with Qin Yiheng; he does have some brains.
Chu Ruolin stared at him thoughtfully.
He finally figured these things out, but...
"Dad, I still feel like something's not quite right... Even if Chiwei doesn't know anything, what he's doing seems to be helping us, right?"
It's true that Chu Wei values Qin Yiheng's abilities, but he can't really establish a long-term, positive partnership with Qin Yiheng. It's just a matter of mutual exploitation for a period of time, after which they'll each rely on their own abilities to see who can silence whom or take whose life.
At this time, wouldn't it be a good way to first get closer to Qin Yiheng by having Qiwei play the bad cop and them play the good cop?
“Yes, so he has to continue to remain ignorant.” Chu Wei looked confident, and added at the end, “Only in this way can he truly help us.”
As dusk settled, the villa was brightly lit, illuminating Chu Ruolin's sparkling eyes.
Chu Wei didn't say anything more. This kind of thing is actually very simple. Give Chu Ruolin some time, and he will understand.
Before true light arrives, there is always a period of darkness.
The end is the beginning...
