Chapter 976: Princess Burning the Scumbag; Parent-Child Variety Show
Seeing Xia Wanyuan, Wei Jin subconsciously lowered her head. She did not want Xia Wanyuan to see her humiliated appearance.
Jiang Kui looked up at the door.
Xia Wanyuan was wearing a simple black coat with a white turtleneck sweater inside. She stood there quietly and looked down at Jiang Kui.
Jiang Kui tapped his hand on the sofa twice and slowly smiled.
Jun Shiling really knew how to find women. This beauty was really spicy and exciting.
“Wei Jin, put on your clothes and come over,” Xia Wanyuan said again.
Wei Jin trembled before bending down to pick up the coat on the ground and put it on. She slowly walked to Xia Wanyuan’s side.
Xia Wanyuan handed a few sets of photos to Wei Jin.
With just a glance, Wei Jin’s eyes widened as she looked at Xia Wanyuan in shock. “Cousin, what’s wrong with him?”
Seeing the deep worry in Wei Jin’s eyes, Xia Wanyuan had a plan. “Let me ask you, are you coming with me today?”
Struggle flashed across Wei Jin’s eyes. Thinking of her mother, who was imprisoned thousands of miles away, she held the photo tightly in her hand. “I’m sorry, Cousin.”
“I have a way to deal with what you’re worried about.” Xia Wanyuan saw Wei Jin’s hesitation and interrupted her before she could finish.
Wei Jin widened her beautiful almond-shaped eyes and looked up at Xia Wanyuan.
Wei Jin felt an inexplicable trust in Xia Wanyuan.
Looking at the photo in her hand, Wei Jin finally nodded. “Cousin, I’ll go with you.”
“Okay.” Xia Wanyuan was relieved to hear Wei Jin’s promise.
“Madam Jun, you’re so arrogant. You came to my house and took my fiancée away without telling me?” Seeing that Xia Wanyuan had been here for so long as if she had not seen him, Jiang Kui spoke up.
Xia Wanyuan finally looked at Jiang Kui, but the disregard in her eyes made Jiang Kui feel that it was better for her to not look at him.
“I’m also a member of the Wei family. I’m here to take my cousin away. I don’t need to ask the Jiang family for permission.”
Jiang Kui smiled. “That’s true. When I marry Wei Jin, I’ll have to call you cousin. I was too distant.”
Xia Wanyuan pulled Wei Jin behind her and looked straight at Jiang Kui with a cold and arrogant gaze. “If you want to marry into the Wei family, why don’t you ask me if I agree?”
Jiang Kui raised an eyebrow. “From what Miss Xia said, Old Madam Wei has already decided to let you control the Wei family?”
Xia Wanyuan’s expression was calm and confident. “As long as I want to, I can.”
The corners of Jiang Kui’s lips curled up as he applauded Xia Wanyuan. “To be honest, I really like Miss Xia’s aura. If anything happens to Jun Shiling, I, Jiang Kui, am willing to give Miss Xia a seat.”
Hearing Jiang Kui’s disrespect to Jun Shiling, Xia Wanyuan’s eyes instantly turned cold. She clapped her hands, and the bodyguards who had followed her walked behind her with gasoline cans.
“Pour.” With Xia Wanyuan’s order, the gasoline cans in the bodyguards’ hands were raised. The house was instantly filled with the smell of gasoline.
Jiang Kui, who had been sitting leisurely on the sofa, immediately stood up. “Xia Wanyuan, what are you doing?!”

Xia Wanyuan could not be bothered to talk nonsense with him. She opened the lighter in her hand and threw it on the cabinet beside her.
Sparks flew and the prairie burned in seconds.
A fire dragon quickly sprang up in the house. Xia Wanyuan pulled Wei Jin out.
“Cousin, will something happen?” Wei Jin looked at Xia Wanyuan worriedly.
Jiang Kui was the eldest young master of the Jiang family. If anything happened, she was afraid of implicating Xia Wanyuan.
Xia Wanyuan shook her head. “Of course nothing will happen.”
She had never thought that she could kill the young master of the Jiang family in Beijing by starting a fire. At most, she would make him look bad.
It was impossible for Jiang Kui to go around telling others that his house had been burned down. If word got out, where would he put his face as the young master of the Jiang family? In the end, he could only suffer this loss himself.
Seeing how confident Xia Wanyuan was, Wei Jin was relieved. Thinking of the photo just now, Wei Jin was worried again. “Cousin, what happened to Mu Feng?”
“You’ll know when you reach the hospital with me.”
The car quickly sent Xia Wanyuan and Wei Jin to the hospital.
Through the glass on the door, one could see that in the ICU, Mu Feng was lying on the bed with a ventilator. He looked like he was on his last breath.
“On the day of the Lantern Festival, the Jiang family forced him to marry the Mu family. Mu Feng rejected them and met with a car accident on the way back to Qing University. He was saved for a day and night.” Xia Wanyuan’s explanation made Wei Jin cry.
Looking at Mu Feng in the intensive care unit, Wei Jin’s palms were already blurry.
She was worried and sad, but at the same time, she was glad.
It turned out that Mu Feng had not given up on her.
“Follow me.” After standing at the door with Wei Jin for a while, Xia Wanyuan stood up and walked out.
Wei Jin glanced at Mu Feng twice before following.
In the car, Xia Wanyuan looked at Wei Jin quietly. “I’ll only ask you once. What are your concerns? Do you want to marry Mu Feng?”
Wei Jin was silent for a while before finally telling Xia Wanyuan everything.
The Wei family had been a family for hundreds of years. Even though it was already modern society, the hierarchy in the family was still maintained. Men were the pillars of the family, and women were just vassals.
This was also why after Old Master Wei passed away, even though Old Madam Wei tried her best to support and expand the Wei family’s scale more than before, she had never obtained the approval of the Wei family.
In the end, they could only be forced to move the entire family north, and the main branch moved to Beijing.
Wei Jin’s mother was originally the daughter of a wealthy family in Jiangnan. Back then, she felt that the Wei family was rich and was a family of poetry and etiquette, so she married them.
It was only after she got married that she realized that this was a fire pit. Because she only had one daughter, Wei Jin, Wei Jin’s mother was scolded by Wei Zhong all year round and was placed under house arrest in the old residence.
Wei Jin had worked so hard to learn all sorts of poems and books, trying her best to be a good marriage tool for the Wei family, all for Wei Zhong’s promise.
Wei Zhong had once promised that as long as Wei Jin completed what he had instructed, he would put Wei Jin’s mother by her side.
“Do you think your father will let your mother off so easily? That’s the best leverage to restrain you.” After hearing Wei Jin’s story, Xia Wanyuan pointed out the problem.
Wei Jin lowered her head. “I know.”
I knew that my father would not let me off so easily, but even if there was a glimmer of hope, I wanted to try.
“I’ll help you save your mother.”
Hearing Xia Wanyuan’s words, Wei Jin looked up in shock. “Cousin, you?”
“Of course, I have a condition.” Xia Wanyuan smiled. “I’ll tell you about this condition in the future.”
“Okay, as long as Cousin instructs me, I’m willing to agree to anything.” Wei Jin trusted Xia Wanyuan 100%. If Xia Wanyuan said that she would save her mother, then her mother would definitely be saved.
“Alright, go and take care of Mu Feng. I’m going to look for Jun Shiling.” Xia Wanyuan waved her hand. Knowing that Wei Jin was thinking about Mu Feng, she did not say anything more to her.
In the Jun Corporation, Jun Shiling was discussing something with Lin Jing in the office when the door was suddenly pushed open. Xia Wanyuan walked in and blinked at Jun Shiling with a smile.
“Alright, you can leave first.” Jun Shiling gestured for Lin Jing to leave and stood up to welcome Xia Wanyuan.
Lin Jing walked out of the office. When he closed the door, he saw the extremely cold Xia Wanyuan in the eyes of outsiders pouncing into Jun Shiling’s arms with a smile.
Lin Jing adjusted his glasses and looked at Jun Shiling, who was smiling like a spring breeze. He could not help but shake his head. A person in love was really clingy.
“Why are you so happy?” Jun Shiling stroked Xia Wanyuan’s hair and kissed her dotingly.
“I’ve recruited a general. I want to get my hands on the Wei family of Jiangnan.” Xia Wanyuan looked up at Jun Shiling, her eyes filled with slow dependence and arrogant confidence. Her entire person seemed to be shining.
Jun Shiling pulled her to the sofa. “Go ahead. You can have whatever you want. I support you.”
Jun Shiling looked like a fatuous ruler. Even if Xia Wanyuan wanted to pluck the stars from the sky, he would be the one to spend money to hire all the factories in the world to build a ladder for her.
“Are you very busy today?” Xia Wanyuan buried her hand in Jun Shiling’s clothes.
“I’ll be very busy if you don’t come.” Jun Shiling smiled and kissed her. “Accompany me to work, okay?”
“Okay.” Xia Wanyuan nodded. “I came to look for you anyway. It’s too boring at home.”
“Just because you’re bored?” Jun Shiling raised an eyebrow.
“Because I missed you.” Xia Wanyuan smiled at Jun Shiling with dimples and sparkling eyes.
If she did not have to go to work, Xia Wanyuan was willing to stay by Jun Shiling’s side all the time.
Jun Shiling was satisfied. “I missed you too.”
In the meeting room of the Jun Corporation, all the participants were already in place, waiting for Jun Shiling to come and preside over the situation.
Everyone waited for a long time before footsteps finally sounded outside. Lin Jing opened the door and stood by the door. Everyone stood up and greeted Jun Shiling, “CEO.”
Before they could say the word ‘Jun’, everyone’s voices were stuck in their throats.
Because beside Jun Shiling was a beautiful woman.
Everyone was already very familiar with this woman’s appearance.
Xia Wanyuan, the mistress of the Jun Corporation.
There was another seat beside Jun Shiling’s seat. Jun Shiling held Xia Wanyuan’s hand and sat over.
“CEO Jun, Madam Jun.” After the two of them sat down, everyone greeted them again.
“Mm, let the meeting begin.”
After Jun Shiling spoke, the meeting continued according to the established process.
Halfway through the meeting, everyone looked at Xia Wanyuan with shining eyes. Everyone was thinking how good it would be if Xia Wanyuan could sit beside Jun Shiling every time there was a meeting.
When Jun Shiling held a meeting alone, he was the King of Hell. Whoever he caught would be unlucky. No one could withstand Jun Shiling’s reprimand.
When Xia Wanyuan was around, Jun Shiling was unbelievably gentle. He did not say a single harsh word to his subordinates. The employees had the most comfortable meeting in history.
What shocked everyone even more was that they had thought that Xia Wanyuan was here to accompany Jun Shiling. She definitely did not know much about the contents of the meeting.
However, the truth was beyond everyone’s expectations. Jun Shiling would seek Xia Wanyuan’s opinion on every proposal. Xia Wanyuan’s various opinions made everyone’s eyes light up.
To be able to discuss enthusiastically with everyone at the high-level meeting of the Jun Corporation, this was enough to show how professional Xia Wanyuan was and how powerful she was.
After the meeting ended, everyone looked at each other and sighed. “I thought Xia Wanyuan conquered CEO Jun with her beauty. I didn’t expect this. As expected, a woman who can conquer CEO Jun is really not an ordinary woman.”

The Wei family’s courtyard.
“Did she really say that?” Old Madam Wei held a cup of tea and looked at the butler.
“Yes, Old Madam. Many people present heard it. Miss Xia said that as long as she wants to be the successor of the Wei family, she can.” The butler told the Old Madam everything that had happened in the morning.
He had thought that Matriarch Wei would be very angry when she heard this. Unexpectedly, a smile appeared on Matriarch Wei’s face.
“What do you think?” Matriarch Wei slowly took a sip of tea and looked at the old butler who had followed her for decades.
“Miss Xia is still young. Although she has Jun Shiling backing her up, isn’t it a little too much to be so arrogant…” In the butler’s opinion, Old Madam Wei had yet to appoint the next successor. Xia Wanyuan was an outsider. Her words were a little arrogant.
Old Madam Wei swallowed the tea. “She’s right. I’ve already decided to hand the Wei family to her.” As soon as she finished speaking, she ignored the butler’s shock and smiled. “This girl saved Wei Jin today. I’m afraid she didn’t just help Wei Jin. This girl is very ambitious.”
The butler was confused, but the only thing he could clearly sense was that the Wei family’s sky was about to change.
“Is Zimu not here yet?” Matriarch Wei looked out the door and asked.
“Someone has already gone to rush him. Young Master Zimu will be here later.”
Just as the butler finished speaking, Wei Zimu arrived.
“Grandma.” Wei Zimu bowed respectfully to Old Madam Wei.
“Have a seat.”
Wei Zimu sat down and Old Madam Wei dismissed everyone in the room. She looked at Wei Zimu lovingly. “Zimu, although you don’t have the Wei family’s blood, how have I treated you all these years?”
“Grandma, if you hadn’t picked me up from the streets back then, I would have died long ago.” Wei Zimu’s eyes were filled with respect. “Grandma has treated me well.”
“I know you’re a good child.” Old Madam Wei nodded in relief. “I have the heart to protect you, but my health is getting worse year by year.”
“Grandma…” Pain flashed across Wei Zimu’s eyes. He saw the white hair on the Old Madam’s head and his face turned even paler.
“Listen to me.” Matriarch Wei stopped Wei Zimu. “All these years, I’ve never treated you as an outsider. Among the younger generation of the Wei family, you’re the person I value the most. Don’t look at how there are so many people in the younger generation of the Wei family. None of them can take on a huge responsibility.”
Old Madam Wei was old and felt a little tired after saying a few words. She picked up the teacup and took a sip of tea before continuing, “The Wei family seems harmonious, but in fact, it’s divided. You can tell that once I abdicate, the entire Wei family will tear apart the surface peace. I have something to entrust to you now. Are you willing to promise me?”
“Tell me.” Wei Zimu stood up and bowed 90 degrees to the Old Madam. “I won’t hesitate to die.”
Old Madam Wei took a deep breath. “I want to hand the Wei family over to Xia Wanyuan. I want you to help her take down the Wei family.”

Hearing the Old Madam’s words, Wei Zimu looked up with a smile in his eyes. “Old Madam, Sister Wanyuan means a lot to me. Even if you don’t ask me, I’ll do my best to protect her.”
With Wei Zimu’s guarantee, Matriarch Wei was relieved. She looked at Wei Zimu, who was in front of her, and felt a little regretful. “Originally, I wanted to matchmake you and Xia Wanyuan. What a pity.”
Wei Zimu smiled openly. “Grandma, CEO Jun treats Sister Wanyuan very well.”
“Okay.” Matriarch Wei stopped talking. “It’s good that he treats her well. Go and do your work first.”
“Yes.” Wei Zimu bowed respectfully and turned to leave.
Behind her, Matriarch Wei looked at Wei Zimu’s tall back with a hint of worry.

The municipal construction of Beijing had never been under everyone’s attention.
However, in the past few days, the construction of the northern region of Beijing had frequently been trending. The reason was simple. This construction involved the traffic of two nuclear bombs.
Jun Shiling and Xia Wanyuan.
The original commercial center of the North District was located in the north section of Xingyuan Road, where Camellia’s flagship store was located.
In comparison, the southern section across the road seemed very cold and cheerless. There was no commercial center to rely on. The rental price of the shops in the southern section was nearly half of the northern section, and the southern section was where Xiu Yi’s shop was located.
Of course this was before.
Because during this period of time, everyone realized that construction had begun in the south.
The Jun Corporation had moved the headquarters of its financial institutions and clothing companies to this place.
There were even rumors that the next building of the Jun Corporation would be developed in the south.
Due to the huge attraction effect of the Jun Corporation, the planning bureau in this area specially changed the traffic route for the company migration of the Jun Corporation.
Originally, the traffic at Xiu Yi was not smooth. After modification, the road to Xiu Yi was flat, and the surrounding low prices increased greatly.
As a former business center, many people in the northern region were actually looking down on it.
When this news spread online, everyone guessed that the change by the Jun Corporation might really cause a commotion in the North District.
“Let me say something. This matter has been traced back to the root. Perhaps CEO Jun is standing up for Xia Wanyuan. Everyone, take a look at the news back then. Xiu Yi’s original shop address is actually where Camellia is now. Back then, before the contract time was up, Camellia chased Xiu Yi opposite with her wealth and occupied the best position in this business center.”
[Um, thank you for being generous. If you chase my wife out of the business center, I’ll move it to another location. Awesome class.]
[ Ah, this… If your analysis is true, that landlord still deserves it. She clearly signed the contract and still broke it. Back then, Xiu Yi’s shop renovation cost a lot of money, but in the end, it was all pushed down and redone. ]
[In terms of doting on his wife, CEO Jun is very good at it. When can I meet someone who can build a business center for me in order to improve my shop’s business?]
Camellia, who was discussed by everyone, had a headache.
It was already very good that the traffic at Xiu Yi was not smooth. Now that the line was connected, there was no one at Camellia’s side. The popularity at Xiu Yi’s side seemed to be mocking their failure.
“Contact Miss Zou Man immediately!” The in-charge decided not to sit and wait for death. He had to come up with a plan to expand the market.
The call took a long time to connect. Zou Man’s tone was very impatient. She hung up after saying, “Got it. I’ll come over tomorrow to discuss.”
“Xia Wanyuan! It’s Xia Wanyuan again!! Why is she haunting me?!” Zou Man looked hatefully at the burnt hair in her hand and gritted her teeth in anger.
When Xia Wanyuan set fire to the Jiang family that day, Zou Man was in the bedroom on the second floor. When she realized that there was a fire, the stairs were already filled with flames.
Zou Man had no choice but to jump down from the balcony on the second floor.
In the end, not only was her hair burned, but there were also several large bruises on her body.
Jiang Kui seemed to be a loving person, but he was actually ruthless. Seeing her injured like this, not only did he not feel any heartache, but he also despised her ugly wound. He comforted her with a few words and sent her home, instructing her to recover before looking for him.
Although Jiang Kui was ruthless in the past, he would still dote on her. Ever since Xia Wanyuan appeared, this man had become more and more impatient with her.
Zou Man was familiar with the ways of men and women. How could she not sense Jiang Kui’s disdain for her and his interest in Xia Wanyuan?
“Damn it!” Zou Man threw the comb at the mirror. The mirror shattered into thousands of pieces. Zou Man ignored it and walked out of the bathroom to make a call. Her voice was sweet. “Hello, Hubby, can you do me a favor?”
With Jiang Kui’s promise, Zou Man closed her phone smugly. “Genius designer? More like plagiarizing a designer.”

Under the daily urging of the netizens, “Let’s Go Out”‘s official Weibo finally announced the variety show form and time.
@ “Let’s Go Out”: “Thank you for everyone’s attention. This season, ‘Let’s Go Out’ will greatly extend the duration of the program. It will be edited in real time and broadcasted in real time to increase its interaction with everyone.”
The guestsfor the first episode had been confirmed. There were a total of three groups of couples.
Group One: Jun Shiling, Xia Wanyuan
Group Two: Yang Wei, Zhang Nian
Group Three: Lin Lei, Qin Jiao
The production team is speeding up their preparations. The first episode’s recording location will be in a warm town in the south. Everyone, please come with us ~”
The moment the production team’s statement was released, it immediately caused a huge commotion.
The netizens cried out loud. We finally waited for it to come.
The recording of the program was five days. Jun Shiling specially resolved most of the important meetings in advance and left a small portion of work for remote meetings.
In order to free up these five days, Jun Shiling could only work overtime until midnight every day before leaving the company.
During this period of time, Xia Wanyuan would go to the company every night to wait for Jun Shiling to get off work. Sometimes, she would fall asleep while waiting. When she woke up, she was already lying in the bedroom at home.
The employees of the Jun Corporation went from shock to habit to envy. It was no wonder that CEO Jun held Madam in his hands. If they could have a wife who waited for them to get off work every day until midnight, they would also provide for her.
