Chapter 988: The Princess Takes Control of the Wei Family

After Wei Jin finished speaking, Wei Zhong threw the teacup to the ground. Everyone in the room was shocked.

“Second Brother, this is Beijing. Did you smash your cup for our old lady to see?” Wei Xian could not sit still.

Wei Zhong did not take us seriously at all. The Old Madam was still sitting here. How was this teaching their daughter a lesson? This was teaching us a lesson.

“Cousin, I’m teaching my daughter a lesson. It’s not up to a junior like you to interfere, right?” Wei Zhong looked at Wei Xian in disdain and walked to Old Madam Wei. “Aunt, if you hadn’t written to me to send Wei Jin over, I wouldn’t have let her come to Beijing. Look at what she has learned now. Do you think I was wrong to teach her a lesson?”

Old Madam Wei glanced at Wei Zhong. “You should go back and ask your father if you’re right to teach her a lesson here.”

The corners of Wei Zhong’s lips twitched. “Anyway, I’m definitely taking Wei Jin away today.”

He did not expect that Wei Jin would be so capable that she would beg Old Madam Wei. However, Old Madam Wei could not control the Wei family.

Since both sides had separated, they could forget about reaching out so far.

“Since the child is unwilling, why must you force her like this?” Originally, this was the Jiangnan Wei family’s matter and it was not convenient for the Old Madam to interfere, but she could not stand Wei Jin crying pitifully.

“Auntie, have you forgotten what you said when you left Nanjiang City and moved to Beijing?”

Old Madam Wei’s hand that was holding the teacup paused.

Back then, when she left, she had said that once they separated, she would never interfere with the life and death of the Wei family in Jiangnan.

“Let’s go.” Wei Zhong smiled disdainfully, turned around, and pulled Wei Jin’s wrist out.

However, after taking two steps, Wei Zhong saw an extremely beautiful figure walk in.

Wei Jin’s dim eyes suddenly lit up.

“Is this Second Uncle?” Xia Wanyuan’s gaze landed on Wei Zhong.

Wei Zhong’s heart trembled under this cold gaze.

He had seen Xia Wanyuan’s photos many times. In the photos, he could already tell that she was an imposing little girl. However, he did not expect that when he really stood in front of her, the aura on this little girl would actually suppress him until he could not breathe.

“So it’s Madam Jun.” Wei Zhong stopped in his tracks. “What brings you here, Madam Jun?”

“I can’t come?” Xia Wanyuan asked Wei Zhong.

Wei Zhong turned to look at the Wei family with different expressions and a strange smile appeared on his face. “Haha, that’s true. After all, Madam Jun personally said that as long as you want to control the Wei family in Beijing, you can control the Wei family. This is the Wei family. Why can’t you come?”

As soon as Wei Zhong finished speaking, the expressions of the other members of the Wei family changed. They all looked at Old Madam Wei.

Old Madam Wei did not speak. The wrinkles on her face had traces of time.

“Second Brother, aren’t your words too ridiculous?” Wei Xian was so anxious that she could not sit still.

The Old Madam did not react at all when she heard this. If it were anyone else, the Old Madam would definitely be furious. This sign was too bad.

“Is it ridiculous?” Wei Zhong looked at Xia Wanyuan. “Mrs. Jun, did you say that?”

Xia Wanyuan scanned the hall. Everyone was either angry, winking, curious, or impatient. Only Old Madam Wei, who was sitting at the head of the table, looked at Xia Wanyuan calmly.

Under everyone’s gaze, Xia Wanyuan nodded. “Yes, I did. What’s wrong?”

Wei Zhong was stunned for a moment. He did not expect Xia Wanyuan to dare to admit it so directly. Every member of the Wei family in this room was more qualified than an outsider like her to inherit the Wei family in the capital.

Wasn’t she afraid of becoming the target of public criticism and making Old Madam Wei suspicious?

The hall was so quiet that one could vaguely hear breathing.

However, Xia Wanyuan still felt that the matter was not big enough. She looked at Old Madam Wei, who was sitting on the high seat. “Grandma, do you think I can?”

Everyone focused their gazes on Old Madam Wei.

At that moment, the entire hall was filled with a nervous and anxious atmosphere. Even Wei Zhong, who was watching the commotion, was inexplicably nervous.

The Old Madam looked at Xia Wanyuan.

Xia Wanyuan rushed over from the manor and put on a simple black coat. She did not put on any makeup and stood quietly in the hall, forming an aura of her own. Even though she was sitting at the highest point in the hall, facing Xia Wanyuan, Old Madam Wei could clearly feel her old age, and the overwhelming strength from Xia Wanyuan’s bones.

A smile suddenly appeared in Old Madam Wei’s eyes. She waved at Xia Wanyuan, who calmly walked forward.

Old Madam Wei held Xia Wanyuan’s arm and stood up, then pulled her to sit on the chair.

Everyone in the room was shocked.
