Stolen Life of the Poor Girl, Top Luxury Family's Group Favor

Chapter 96

The dinner party that was about to disperse was forced to continue due to Wei Wenjuan's arrival.

About ten minutes later, Wei Wenjuan roughly understood what was going on.

"Whose idea was this?" Wei Wenjuan asked.

Zhou General quickly pointed to Sheng Yuxiao.

But Sheng Yuxiao pointed to Li Xiaoya.

Finally, Wei Wenjuan met Li Xiaoya's innocent eyes.

"Buying shares was my decision, and the other person was chosen by Xiaoya," Sheng Yuxiao said slowly.

It was as if "She's thinking about you, her uncle" was written all over his face.

The corners of Wei Wenjuan's mouth curled up slightly, then he looked at Sheng Yuxiao with a complex gaze and said, "This matter is easy to handle. Thank you for taking care of Xiaoya today, Young Master Sheng."

"You're too kind."

"Then let me take Xiaoya home," Wei Wenjuan said.

Sheng Yuxiao's mood had already been restored by Li Xiaoya today, so he immediately said cheerfully, "You're her uncle, of course you should take her."

These words hit the spot for Wei Wenjuan, and more smiles immediately appeared on his gaunt face.

In the blink of an eye, only Sheng Yuxiao and Zhou General were left in the private room.

Zhou General, recalling the appearance of the man who had just left—sunken eye sockets, pale complexion, looking more like an evil spirit crawling out of hell—couldn't help but ask, "Young Master Sheng, I still haven't figured out that person's identity and background..."

Sheng Yuxiao, being tall, put his hand on Zhou General's shoulder and said in a calm tone, "General Zhou, you're very lucky..."

"I..."

"Without any effort, you've connected with a very reliable person."

"Young Master Sheng, you are indeed very reliable, but that person just now..." He really couldn't see it at all!

Remembering how Young Master Sheng taught the little girl to "play dumb to catch the enemy off guard," Zhou General swallowed the rest of his words, thinking, could that person also be playing dumb? But who would pretend to that extent?

Zhou General's doubts would remain unresolved for now, but he still had to thank Sheng Yuxiao: "I'll pay for the meal today."

The waiter smiled and said, "The bill has already been signed."

Zhou General turned to look at Sheng Yuxiao, embarrassed: "Troubling Young Master Sheng to handle matters and even treating us to a meal, I'm really sorry. Next time..."

Sheng Yuxiao impatiently interrupted, "I'm not treating you, you're benefiting from Li Xiaoya."

"Let's go." Once Li Xiaoya left, the young master couldn't stay either.

Soon only Zhou General was left. His driver came up and found that his boss, whose face had been particularly gloomy during the day, now seemed to have shed all his burdens.

"General Zhou, shall we go home directly?"

"No, go to a nearby mall with a CHANEL boutique."

Liu Meng had been waiting at home for several hours, unable to eat properly. She could only lean on the sofa, listening to her daughter recount how she met Sheng Yuxiao, and how Sheng Yuxiao took off his coat for Li Xiaoya to sit on...

Liu Meng listened with her head raised, saying hazily, "If I remember correctly, the Sheng family and the Qin family don't get along well, do they?"

Zhou Xiaoshu was too young to know about this, so she could only shake her head in confusion.

Just as Liu Meng was marveling, she suddenly heard the maid say, "The master is back."

Liu Meng nervously went to greet him: "How did it go?"

Zhou General silently handed over what he was holding: "For you."

Liu Meng's throat immediately burst out with an exclamation: "Ah! Is it resolved? Do we have the license now?"

Zhou General said, "It's just the beginning."

Liu Meng couldn't understand and could only look bewildered.

"Are you still going to your ladies' tea party tomorrow?" Zhou General suddenly asked her.

Liu Meng nodded, saying awkwardly, "I won't speak carelessly this time."

"No, you should talk," Zhou General suddenly said firmly.

"Huh? Are... are you crazy?"

"..."

"You can even say that you know Sheng Yuxiao."

"I... I don't dare." If she said that, wouldn't others think she had lost her mind?

"You dare." Zhou General looked at the several CHANEL bags piled at his feet and said, "Open them and see, they're all things you like."

Liu Meng indeed couldn't resist anymore and immediately had the maid bring them to the sofa to open the boxes.

Meanwhile, Zhou General crouched down and asked his daughter, "The little girl with Young Master Sheng, she's your classmate, right?"

Zhou Xiaoshu nodded.

"As I thought... In the future, you..."

"Should I try to please her?"

"No, if you can learn something from her, that would be best."

Zhou Xiaoshu was stunned: "Huh? But she fails her piano lessons, violin lessons, her English isn't good, and she can't keep up with math..." Zhou Xiaoshu was telling the truth, without any exaggeration.

Zhou General said with a complex expression: "Out of 1.4 billion people, over 60 million learn piano, but in the end, only two masters emerge... Many people learn these things, but very few actually master them. If we only use these as criteria for judgment, it's too narrow-minded. What she knows, in ancient times, would be called the art of dragon taming."

Li Xiaoya didn't know that Zhou General's evaluation of her had already reached such a high level behind her back.

After she and Wei Wenjuan got into the car, Wei Wenjuan immediately sighed, "This Sheng Yuxiao is a very capable young man."

"Mm." Li Xiaoya responded, suddenly grabbing her uncle's wrist and saying, "Uncle is wearing the gloves I gave him."

Wei Wenjuan relaxed and smiled, "Yes, and they're very warm."

However, as soon as he finished speaking, Wei Wenjuan's face suddenly darkened again. He grabbed Li Xiaoya's hand and asked, "Why are your hands also so scarred? Are they all... old injuries?"

Li Xiaoya said nonchalantly, "Yeah, I used to do a lot of farm work, and had to go up the mountain to pick mushrooms and chestnuts. Sometimes I'd get burned by the edge of the pot..."

As Wei Wenjuan listened to her words, he stared intently at her hands, his eyes turning red.

"Uncle?"

"Uncle, are you sad?"

Li Xiaoya spread out her fingers, comparing them with his, and said, "We're the same, both injured, but it's not a big deal."

Wei Wenjuan choked out, "Mm, it's not a big deal."

He suddenly raised his head and said, "If you really like that company we just visited, why don't I buy it for you? This way you can be the largest shareholder directly."

Wei Wenjuan didn't know what else to do, he just wanted to spoil her, to be good to her, even better.

He thought to himself, I've been so careless, how did I not notice her injuries before?

He must not be trapped in his own world anymore!

"Uncle..." Li Xiaoya looked at him, a bit helpless, "We can use less money to get more money, why take this loss?"

Wei Wenjuan felt like Xiaoya was looking at him as if he were an idiot.

He coughed lightly, "Alright, alright. You... you're more level-headed than your uncle. That's good."

She had both the innocence and softness of a child, yet was as smart and calm as a little adult.

Wei Wenjuan's excitement had nowhere to go, so he said, "I'll get everything settled in the next couple of days."

Li Xiaoya nodded, "Sheng Yuxiao said that after becoming a major shareholder, there will be meetings. Then I can go to meetings with uncle."

Hearing this, Wei Wenjuan couldn't help but imagine that scene.

He was immediately filled with infinite hope!

"Good, we'll go together!"

Because they returned home so late today, the old man didn't call Li Xiaoya for a heart-to-heart talk.

He just stood at the door leaning on his cane, watching Wei Wenjuan's silhouette as he drove away.

"He actually sent Xiaoya home... He seems to be willing to go out more and more often."

A servant nearby quickly said, "The bond between uncle and niece is deep, it's wonderful!"

Wei Xuanming nodded slightly, without saying much.

Who knew that the next day he would be woken up by a phone call.

The servant from Guanghua Villa said in a panic, "The second young master disappeared early in the morning!"

Wei Xuanming covered his heart, which had skipped a beat, slowly sat up, and quickly had someone bring him the phone. Then he personally dialed his son's mobile number.

Wasn't everything fine yesterday?

Could he be going crazy and seeking death again today?

Wei Xuanming gritted his teeth, thinking Wei Wenjuan wouldn't answer the phone. He even had bodyguards ready on the side, prepared to set out to search for him at any moment.

But the phone connected with a beep.

"Hello... Father." Wei Wenjuan's voice was unusually cheerful.

Wei Xuanming was stunned, took the phone away from his ear to look at it, almost thinking he had dialed the wrong number.

"The servants said you disappeared," Wei Xuanming said in a deep voice.

"They're overreacting. I have some business to attend to, so I went out."

Wei Xuanming looked at his phone again.
