Chapter 939: What Could I Have Done?

“We’re leaving too.” Wei Mingxiao said coldly to Wei Zhijian and Li Xiangrong. Without even looking at Wei Keli, he left with Sheng Yilan.

Wei Zhijian let out a breath and said to Wei Keli: “Come with me to the study room!”

Wei Keli had no choice but to lower his head and go with Wei Zhijian.

“You come too.” Wei Zhijian said to Li Xiangrong, “Keqing, wait here for a moment. We’ll talk to Keli.”

“Okay.” Yuan Keqing nodded and agreed. She was still thinking about whether she should continue with Wei Keli.

She also wanted to be alone.

No matter what their family discussed, she was not interested for the time being.

Thus, Wei Keli followed Wei Zhijian and Li Xiangrong into the study room.

Wei Keli walked in the middle while Li Xiangrong followed behind.

After entering the study room, Li Xiangrong had just closed the door.

Wei Zhijian suddenly slapped Wei Keli’s face.

It was evident that Wei Zhijian used all his strength in this slap.

Wei Keli staggered backward and almost fell down.

He covered his face and the left side of his face was numb from the pain.

He felt his brain buzzing.

His face seemed to have swelled up. It was numb and buzzing.

“What’s with that video?” Wei Zhijian asked.

Wei Keli had no reason to hide it from his parents.

“I wanted to use those videos to control Qin Murong and Yuan Keqing.” Wei Keli said. “When I was in Nacheng, I saw the Hu family’s status in Nacheng with my own eyes. They clearly called the shots.”

“I want to do business with the Hu family, and I needed Qin Murong’s help. But that woman Qin Murong is very deceitful. She might betray me one day.” There were many reasons for betraying him.

Either she would not keep her mouth shut, or she would turn hostile and refuse to acknowledge him.

Anyway, Wei Keli did not trust Qin Murong.

“Although the Yuan family is nothing, at least they can give me some help.” Wei Keli said, “But the previous incident also gave me a warning.”

“Now I’m relying on the Yuan family, so I’m afraid that the Yuan family won’t support me anymore.” Wei Keli put down the hand that was covering the left side of his face.

Even though he could not see it, he could feel that the left side of his face was swollen.

As he spoke, the left side of his face was in severe pain, and the corner of his mouth seemed to have been cut open. It was as if salt had been sprinkled on his wound.

“So, it is in order to bind the Yuan family and for them to have no choice but to support me. It’s also for the sake of me not having to constantly worry about the Yuan family not supporting me any time and feeling uneasy. I also have to curry favor with Yuan Keqing, curry favor with the Yuan family, and be their humble follower.”

“That’s why I’ve decided to turn the tables.” Wei Keli said, “First, I have to firmly control Yuan Keqing.”

“Even if the Yuan family is nothing among many families, they would at least not want to be disgraced. They definitely won’t want their daughter’s matter to be leaked.” Wei Keli said, “When that time comes, won’t they only be able to invest in me? Even if Yuan Keqing regrets it in the future and wants to break up with me, she’ll have to first ask me if I agree.”

“Unless I give up on her of my own accord, she won’t be able to dump me and climb up the social ladder.” In other words, he could climb up the social ladder, but Yuan Keqing could not.

“Today’s matter has strengthened my determination to control Yuan Keqing.” Wei Keli raised his face, “I’m even more certain that I didn’t do anything wrong. Otherwise, I would still have to worry about whether Yuan Keqing would break up with me because I lost my power.”

“With the video as control, even if Wei Zhiqian said those punishments today and it made no difference from expelling me from the family, I’m not afraid that Yuan Keqing would break up with me or betray me.”

“Didn’t you say so? You have to take the initiative into your own hands to do things smoothly.” Wei Keli raised his head and said.

“But we didn’t tell you to use such despicable methods!” Li Xiangrong almost did not recognize her own son.

She was a woman. No matter how much she hated Yuan Keqing and Qin Murong.

But in this kind of matter, she could still relate with them.

Being threatened by Wei Keli with such matters, as a woman, was too pitiful!

If Wei Keli had the ability, why would he use such a despicable method? To control a girl with such despicable methods?

“What else could I have done?” Wei Keli said righteously, “Wei Zhiqian took away all my power and resources, and I have nothing. I don’t even have anything that can attract them.”

“These two people, both of them put benefit first.” Wei Keli said, “I am still a young man that the Wei family values and my future is bright. Of course, they are willing to be on good terms with me. Qin Murong Is on good terms with me because she wants to use me to return to B City. Yuan Keqing has been trying to curry favor with me, chasing after me because I used to be one of the best among the younger generation of the Wei family. She wants to use me to enter the Wei family and compete with Tan Mo.”

“It’s even more so for the Yuan family. They want to become in-laws of the Wei family and obtain the resources of the Wei family just like the other in-laws of the Wei family.” Wei Keli’s analysis was logical.

“But now, I have nothing. “The last time I brought Yuan Keqing to the Old Mansion, those two old fogeys and Wei Zhiqian belittled me to the point that I was useless and didn’t give me any face at all.” Wei Keli recalled the last time, he gnashed his teeth in hatred. “They even let Yuan Keqing know that not only was I not valued in the Wei family, but I was also detested by the people in power in the Wei family. She could see that I probably had no future in the Wei family.”

“Although I had already coaxed her last time. But Yuan Keqing isn’t stupid. She already had doubts in her heart. Besides, other than helping her negotiate for her next movie, I still haven’t brought out any evidence which suits my identity better.” Wei Keli gnashed his teeth, “I can see that Yuan Keqing and the Yuan family are watching.”

“If I had the power and resources in my hands, would I need to use such a method? Do you think I don’t know how despicable this is? But what can I do! It’s because I have no other way, I can only rely on myself. I really can’t think of any other way. That’s why I did this.”

“Do you still think that I’m despicable?” Wei Keli’s eyes were red. “If I hadn’t been forced into a corner, who would be willing to use such a method?”

“Do you think that I can’t see grandpa and Granny’s disdain and disappointment towards me? But you’ve never thought of it from my point of view. I’m just like a drowning person struggling to survive, having no choice but to make the last and only choice.” Wei Keli said.

“I never regret my choice. Especially today, after Wei Zhiqian’s punishment, I’m even more thankful that I have something on them. This way, even if I have nothing, I’m not afraid that Yuan Keqing will turn hostile and refuse to acknowledge me. The Yuan family will have no choice but to Invest in me properly and wait for my return. I won’t let them invest for nothing.”
