Chapter 25: Savior

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Wen Nian knew that Wei Feng was arrogant and liked to be a savior. He looked at Wei Feng worriedly. “Grandpa Wei, is there any way to stop my second uncle’s family from causing trouble? They definitely won’t be satisfied.”

Wei Feng chuckled dismissively. “No need to worry. They won’t be able to cause any trouble for the next few years. Your second uncle is just a coward who bluffs. Without the support of the Li family, he’s powerless. But, I advise you not to push them too hard. Your second aunt is already facing the consequences of her actions, and her family holds a grudge against her. They won’t hesitate to punish her. So, it’s best to let them be for now. They have bigger problems to deal with.”

This was similar to the outcome Wen Nian had imagined. However, when she heard Wei Feng’s arrangements, she still looked very surprised. “Thank you, Grandpa Wei!”

Compared to Wen Nian, Wen Xing and Zhou Mei seemed calm and thanked Wei Feng politely.

Wei Feng cast a glance at the run-down courtyard and grinned. He then shifted his gaze to the Wen family and spoke in a soft tone, “The issue has been resolved. I will take my leave and head back to the city. If you require any assistance, do not hesitate to reach out to me.”

As Wei Feng made his way out of the house, the Wen family bid him farewell. He waved back after getting into the car, and signaled the driver to start the engine and depart.

As the car drove away, Wei Feng gazed expressionlessly at the receding silhouette of the Wen family’s antiquated house. Reflecting on how it had been over a decade since he last paid his respects there, he couldn’t help but feel emotional. It was thanks to Wen Sheng’s financial aid that he managed to recover from bankruptcy and ultimately make a successful comeback. Wei Feng owed much of his current success to his own exceptional capabilities and the Wen family’s unwavering support.

However, later on, Wei Feng was worried that Wen Sheng’s urging him to return the money would cause his capital chain to break and he would go bankrupt again. Thinking that no official loan agreement was made between them and that only the two of them knew about the loan, he went all out and gave Wen Sheng a slow-acting poison to kill him.

Wei Feng had been plagued by guilt for many years, but as he watched Wen Sheng’s adopted son behaving this way, his sense of remorse began to dissipate.

Wen Xing was a person of integrity and honesty, and it was clear that he was no match for Wen Xun. Wei Feng realized that had he returned the borrowed money to the Wen family at that time, Wen Xing would not have been able to inherit it after Wen Sheng’s passing. The more Wei Feng reflected on the situation, the more he began to believe that he had actually done the Wen family a great favor. In fact, a few years ago, he had even given Wen Xing a one-million-yuan sponsorship to support the education of his two children. This was a gesture that far exceeded the amount that Wen Sheng had borrowed from him.

A faint smile appeared on Wei Feng’s face. In addition to the help he had given this time, he had already done his best to make up for it.

In the Wen family’s old residence.

Wen Nian jumped up and down in the central room, looking for something.

Zhou Mei took out the medicinal wine and began to apply it to Wen Xing’s wound. She turned to Wen Nian and asked, “Nian Nian, did you ask Old Mr. Wei to come here?”

Wen Nian couldn’t help but recall how the Wei family had deceived her in her previous life, causing her parents and brother to die prematurely in their efforts to help her repay her debts. Fueled by anger, she curtly responded without even turning around, “Yes, I did.”

Zhou Mei exchanged a glance with Wen Xing, who shook his head slightly. They had always found their father’s death suspicious and had once suspected Wei Feng’s involvement, but without any concrete evidence, it was pointless to burden the child with such thoughts. This was also the reason why they were reluctant to form any marriage alliance with the Wei family.

The existence of the one-million-yuan card gifted to them by the Wei family was known only to the couple. They had left the money untouched in the bank and planned to use the money only in case of an emergency. They also avoided any unnecessary interaction with the Wei family. They

Zhou Mei sighed softly. “Nian Nian, what are you looking for? And what about school? Why are you back when everything is fine?”

Wen Nian didn’t dare to say what she was looking for. She only replied vaguely, “Some time ago, I dreamed that Grandpa sent me a dream and said that our family buried some money for emergencies. I received your message today and wanted to come back to look for it.”

In China, many people still believe in dreams. Wen Nian didn’t doubt it. She just scratched her head and said with a puzzled expression, “If Grandpa wanted to entrust someone, it should be me. Moreover, I grew up in the old residence. Why didn’t I know that our family had money?”

Wen Nian couldn’t help but complain in her heart that her grandfather was too good at hiding money. If it weren’t for the fact that they had sold the house in her previous life and the new owner renovated it, no one would have known about it.

Of course, the owner of the house wouldn’t say anything, but he couldn’t stand the worker’s quick tongue. They gossiped so much that the entire town knew about it! The rumor was that there were a few gold bars!

By that time, the news had already spread locally, but the real estate contract clearly stated that the land and everything attached to it had been sold. Despite their regret and frustration, the Wen family couldn’t do anything about it. They didn’t even get to see what the gold bars looked like.
