Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
When did he grow a brain? It would all be up to Wei Zhiqian to decide.
What if Wei Zhiqian felt that he had never grown a brain and refused to let him come back.
Wouldn’t he have to stay in Nacheng for the rest of his life?
Now, Wei Keli had stopped daydreaming about performing well in Nacheng and was promoted to a core position in Weifeng Company.
He finally knew that Wei Zhiqian had no intention of letting him return to Weifeng Company to do a good job!
Everything about entering the core level when he returned was a lie to him.
Wei Keli looked at Old Mister Wei with eager eyes. However, he heard Old Mister Wei say, “Let him work in Nacheng for three years first. When that time comes, he will be twenty-six. He will be a little older than when you entered Weifeng Company. If he still doesn’t have a brain at that time, don’t come back. Continue to stay for another three years.”
“Great-grandfather!” Wei Keli looked at Old Mister Wei in disbelief.
Was he being sentenced?
Starting from three years?
“Grandfather…” Li Xiangrong wanted to speak too, but Wei Zhijian held her hand.
Li Xiangrong turned to look at Wei Zhijian.
Wei Zhijian gave her a look.
At the same time, Li Xiangrong felt her hand being squeezed slightly.
It didn’t hurt. It was just when she could feel Wei Zhijian’s hint.
Wei Zhijian didn’t want her to speak.
Li Xiangrong kept her voice down and didn’t speak anymore.
Wei Keli had just heard Li Xiangrong speak, and his heart was filled with hope.
But soon after, Li Xiangrong’s voice fell silent again.
She had no intention of speaking again.
Wei Keli turned his head to look at Li Xiangrong, but he saw that Li Xiangrong no longer looked at the two elders. She lowered her head and had no intention of speaking anymore.
He looked at Li Xiangrong in disbelief.
Could Li Xiangrong just watch him stay in such a remote place like Nacheng?
Li Xiangrong did not dare to look at Wei Keli now. She was afraid to see Wei Keli’s disappointed expression.
Wei Zhijian had completely given up on Wei Keli now.
Previously, when Wei Zhiqian had sent Wei Keli to Nacheng, even if Wei Zhijian had already given up on Wei Keli, he had at least tried hard to prevent Wei Keli from going to Nacheng.
But after today’s incident, Wei Zhijian felt that Wei Keli was hopeless.
No matter how much other people helped, they could not compare to his own stupidity.
“Alright, the matter of Nacheng is settled.” The old master made the decision and did not give Wei Keli a chance to mention this matter again.
Wei Keli was extremely regretful now.
If he had known earlier, he would not have mentioned this matter.
Perhaps he would have returned earlier.
Old Madam Wei saw the regretful look on Wei Keli’s face and sneered repeatedly.
He was hesitant in doing things. After making a decision, things did not meet his expectations and he regretted it.
With such a temper, he still wanted to enter Weifeng Company’s inner circle?
What did Wei Keli think of Weifeng Company? Did he think that a n.o.body of his level could enter?
Seeing Wei Keli’s behavior, Old Madam Wei felt disgusted.
She sighed and said, “Keli, don’t put on such a mournful look. Going to Nacheng is not like going to jail. It’s a festival. Are you not allowed to come back? Going to Nacheng is not like staying in Nacheng forever. There are so many holidays in a year. Who would stop you from coming back? Don’t be so miserable just because we told you to go to Nacheng. B City only has so little resources. Many outstanding children of the eight great families go out to work for their families. Some even gave up their family resources and worked for themselves. Are those people not outstanding enough? They made such a choice because they are outstanding enough and have confidence in themselves.”
Old Madam Wei looked at him with a heavy gaze. “If you really don’t want to go, you don’t have to go.”
Wei Keli faintly felt that Old Madam Wei’s words sounded extremely familiar.
Just as he was thinking this.., he heard Old Madam Wei say, “The children of the eight great families, such as Wei Zilin, Wei Wucai, and Han Zhuofeng. They did not work in any of the companies at home. Instead, they went out and started their own businesses. Wei Zilin opened a public relations company, which was the top public relations company in the industry. While Wei Wucai was at the Lanchan compound, he founded a special effects production company, which had already become one of the top special effects production companies in the world. Han Zhuofeng learned from the director and is currently shooting a movie. They didn’t use their family’s resources. They relied entirely on themselves. Naturally, they have their own say. If they want to stay in that city, they can stay there,” Old Madam Wei said coldly. “If you leave Weifeng Company and don’t use the family’s resources, the family will no longer care about you. Whatever job you want to do, you can rely on your own ability to do it. If you want to start a business, you can also rely on your own ability to do so.”
“Are you going to choose this path?” Old Madam Wei raised her eyebrows and asked slowly.
“But, if I go to Nacheng, what benefits will I get from the family?” Wei Keli asked.
He was in a remote place like Nacheng, far away from B City – the center of the country.
He had lost so much, but what did he gain?
“The chance to enter Weifeng Company,” Old Madam Wei said. “Do you think that you won’t be able to improve in your lifetime? If that’s the case, you can stay in B City and start your own business. If you don’t improve, Weifeng Company Won’t want you either.”
“But if you improve in Nacheng, Weifeng Company won’t give up on talented people. If you’re determined to improve yourself, the Wei family won’t ignore the efforts that you’ve put in,” Old Madam Wei said.
If Wei Keli thought about it carefully, he would find that Old Madam Wei’s words were actually the same as what Wei Zhiqian said when he asked him to go to Nacheng.
They were all drawing a big pie for Wei Keli.
Old Madam Wei was doing the same as well.
But now, when Wei Keli heard that Old Madam Wei had drawn a big cake, he actually believed it again.
Old Madam Wei could tell from Wei Keli’s expression.
Actually, Wei Keli was just unwilling to part with the Wei family’s benefits.
If there were already benefits, why would he have to work hard from scratch?
“How about it? What do you choose?” Old Madam Wei asked.
Wei Keli gritted his teeth and said, “I’ll go back to Nacheng.”
Old Madam Wei smiled. “Going to Nacheng isn’t like going to jail. If you really don’t want to stay in Nacheng anymore, you can come back anytime.”
Wei Keli looked at Old Madam Wei in surprise, but Old Madam Wei said, “However, the day you come back is the day you choose to start your own business. We’ll know your choice when you come back.”
The surprise in Wei Keli’s eyes disappeared. He understood what Old Madam Wei meant.
“Alright, Hurry up and properly apologize to your youngest aunt.” Unexpectedly, Old Madam Wei still had no intention of letting Wei Keli go.
Wei Keli was rendered speechless.
“I already apologized just now,” said Wei Keli.
He really couldn’t bring himself to call her “aunt” again.
Wei Zhiqian said coldly, “What kind of apology was that? You just didn’t to make the pain stop. There was no respect in that apology and you didn’t even mean it. I’ll give you a chance now.. Address her properly and apologize.”
