Chapter 233 Whether they can become a real family depends on her third brother's actions.
"Family?"
Wen Jianjian lowered her head, her hands hanging by her sides, and murmured those two ridiculous words.
"yes!"
Seeing that Wen Jianjian did not push her away, Wen's mother thought there was still room for maneuver, so she immediately made Wen Yuan kneel down as well.
“Jianjian, I was a bastard before. I promise I will never bully you again. No…” Wen Yuan quickly shook her head and stammered, “From now on, the Wen family will only have you as the eldest daughter. As long as you don’t pursue the matter, I will listen to whatever you say.”
"Jianjian, please forgive me this time for your father's sake!"
"Family..."
Wen Jianjian slowly raised her head, her pale face revealing horribly red eyes, her eyes brimming with tears.
Instead, she murmured the word "family," and then suddenly laughed.
"Now you acknowledge my father as part of the Wen family?" Wen Jianjian retorted coldly. "What more do you want from him after he gave up his property and went into seclusion in Mengjiao?"
"But what about you? You actually tried to kill him!"
"..."
Everyone remained silent, staring at her in quiet contemplation.
"How dare you mention my father?" Wen Jianjian walked up to Wen Yuan and her daughter, bent down slightly, and smirked. "Listen carefully, not only will I not let you go, but I will also do everything in my power to make you suffer the most severe punishment."
"Wen Bi, Wen Ting, Madam Wen, and you, Wen Yuan..."
Wen Jianjian spoke each word clearly, her voice as cold as ice, each syllable like a piercing blade: "You'll all be punished by law!"
"..."
Wen Yuan and her daughter collapsed to the ground, tears streaming down their faces.
"..."
When Wen Ting and his son passed by Wen Jianjian and Pei Jinwu, they paused for a few seconds.
"Wen Jianjian, you're truly remarkable!" A mocking smile graced Wen Bi's weathered face. "With a daughter like you, Wen Xi can rest in peace, can't he?"
"No rush."
Wen Jianjian clenched her fists and retorted without hesitation, "Soon, Mr. Wen will go down and ask him personally."
"..."
Wen Bi's face was as white as paper, devoid of any color.
"Let's go," the staff member urged. "We need to transfer it to another location."
——
At the entrance of the police station.
As soon as Wen Yuan and her family of four stepped out, countless reporters swarmed around them.
The flashbulbs kept going off at them.
"Don't film me, don't film me..." Wen Yuan quickly lowered her head and hid behind her mother.
The microphone was practically shoved into their faces, and Wen Bi and his son Wen Ting had no way to dodge.
All I could hear were reporters asking questions all at once:
"Chairman Wen, is it true that the news circulating online claims that you framed your own elder brother years ago and then hired someone to kill him?"
"I heard that you even tried to kill his daughter for the sake of the inheritance!"
"And Wen Yuan, aren't you actually the mistress's daughter? What right do you have to slander Wen Jianjian?"
"Like attracts like. All four members of this family are utterly despicable!"
"Mr. Wen, say something!" The reporter at the front spoke sharply, "Back then, Young Master Wen didn't really abandon his fiancée; he was forced into marriage by your father. Miss Xu actually had a boyfriend too..."
"It's just that in order to get into Chairman Wen's position, you had Miss Xu's boyfriend killed off. You made everyone think that Young Master Wen abandoned his fiancée..."
"At the same time, Wen Jianjian and her mother have been burdened with infamy for more than ten years!"
"..."
The reporters finally understood what was going on.
"Why won't the Xu family say anything?" a reporter seized upon this crucial question.
"Because..." the reporter paused, then said, word by word, "because Miss Xu's boyfriend, like her, is a woman. The Xu family, afraid of losing face, conveniently shifted the blame onto Young Master Wen."
"ah?"
The crowd instantly became noisy, making everything clear.
After all that effort...
The most tragic case is that of Young Master Wen and his wife and daughters.
"Wen Bi deserves to die!" The reporter pressed the shutter, capturing the ugly faces of the four people, and posted it online along with the truth from earlier.
This quickly caused a huge uproar—
Wen Jianjian's mother was not a mistress; Wen Jianjian was the rightful eldest daughter of the Wen family. The real mistress's daughter was Wen Yuan.
His father was wronged and ultimately died a tragic death.
Netizens are all speaking out for Wen Jianjian, clamoring for the culprit to pay the price for the credit card.
"Stop filming! Stop filming!"
After the reporters had finished taking pictures, the staff painstakingly helped Wen Yuan's family into the car.
They will face severe legal punishment!
"But……"
Watching the car drive away, the reporters exchanged glances, then suddenly asked, "With the entire Wen family of four in jail, will all the remaining money go to Wen Jianjian?"
"According to reliable sources, the Wen family patriarch has made a will. Two-thirds of the Wen family's assets will be inherited by Wen Jianjian."
"Was Wen Jianjian pulling this stunt for the sake of the family fortune?"
"By the way, where is the person involved?"
While the reporters were searching for her, Pei Jinwu had already left with Wen Jianjian through another exit.
On the way to the hospital.
Wen Jianjian lowered her head, tears streaming down her face.
"Why are you crying?" Pei Jinwu patted her head, her tone very gentle, a rare tenderness in her voice: "Your father will be very happy to know."
"Cousin, thank you." Wen Jianjian stared gratefully at Pei Jinwu, sobbing, "If it weren't for you, I..."
“No need to say that.” Pei Jinwu interrupted her, a slight smile playing on her lips. “It’s only natural for me to protect my family.”
"Um."
Wen Jianjian nodded with red eyes and hugged Pei Jinwu tightly, "We will always be a family."
"OK."
Pei Jinwu smiled. Whether they could truly become a family depended on her third brother's performance.
——
Before going home.
Pei Jinwu took Wen Jianjian to the hospital.
We promised the whole family would be together, but not one of us could be missing.
Now that the younger ones are taken care of, it's time to deal with the older ones.
In the hospital ward.
The live broadcast was showing the news of the arrest of the Wenbi family of four.
"..."
Grandpa Wen was on his deathbed, his eyes staring blankly at the screen.
The door was pushed open.
As Wen Jianjian walked to his side, Old Master Wen's eyes lit up.
This child looks remarkably like her father.
Seeing her is like seeing my son with whom I've had a falling out.
He knew Wen Xi was innocent, but he was still angry...
She was angry that he was so outstanding, yet he was willing to abandon his family for a woman who wasn't worth it.
So he severed ties with Wen Xi, waiting for him to beg for mercy.
pity.
In the end, the news that arrived was that he had died.
so.
His hatred for Wen Jianjian and her daughter intensified.
Even knowing they were living in misery, they remained indifferent.
"You..." Old Master Wen moved his fingers, his lips barely moving, "Yes..."
"You want to say sorry?" Looking at the grandfather in front of her, who was terminally ill and whom she had never met before, Wen Jianjian's throat was slightly dry.
"..."
Grandpa Wen blinked, indicating his agreement.
"Understood."
After taking a deep breath, Wen Jianjian calmly stated, "I do not accept your apology to my mother and me."
"As for my father..."
Wen Jianjian's voice choked with emotion, and she said hoarsely, "I believe he will not forgive you either."
"I'm here today for two things. First, to fulfill my filial duty to my father and to see you one last time."
Wen Jianjian felt a weight pressing on her heart, making it hard for her to breathe. She forced herself to stay awake: "Second..."
"I just wanted to tell you that if Dad doesn't care, neither do I."
"I, Wen Jianjian, still have no connection with the Wen family, and I will not take anything from the Wen family."
"That's all."
Wen Jianjian bowed politely and turned to look at Pei Jinwu.
“Let’s go.” Pei Jinwu raised an eyebrow and said calmly.
The old man can only last 5 minutes at most.
It's really unlucky to be facing death.
——
good evening.
