Chapter 531: Chapter 531: After the Matter Gets Out of Hand_1

But Wei Yichen not only didn’t feel the slightest bit guilty, he made a shocking request that unsettled the whole Wei Family: to split the family.

Wei’s elderly grandfather and grandmother were still alive. In general, brothers would not split the family while the elder generation is still living.

This move was met with blame from every member of the Wei Family. However, Wei Yichen remained unmoved, insisting on splitting the family with the excuse that Wei’s second family had harmed his younger sister.

Unexpectedly, the elderly grandmother of the Wei Family actually agreed to Wei Yichen’s outrageous request.

At the moment, there is not yet a conclusion about whether the family will be split. It has been known since yesterday that there has been no peace in the Wei Family.

After listening to Lin Fang’s words, Wei Ruo sighed lightly. She was not surprised. After finding out yesterday that Wei Yichen had orchestrated the whole thing, she had already guessed that this would be the next development.

What Wei Yichen wanted to do was not only difficult but could even affect his official career.

However, his determination was stronger than anyone else’s. He was determined to sever ties with the first and second families.

“Young Miss, do you think the eldest young master will succeed?” Xiumei couldn’t resist asking out of curiosity.

“He’s come this far. Even if the family fails to separate in the end, at the very least, outsiders know that the third family of the Wei Family does not get along with the second family. No matter what the second family does or who they become friends with, it cannot represent the third family’s intentions. Therefore, he has achieved most of his aims.” Wei Ruo said.

Xiumei nodded, “So, the eldest young master is very smart and can be ruthless when necessary. This is very different from what I saw of him before!”

Wei Ruo then asked Lin Fang: “What about Wei Qingwan?”

“She was taken back to the King Yu Residence by the queen, and there hasn’t been any news about her since. It seems that King Yu’s Residence has no plans to deal with her.” Lin Fang said.

“That makes sense. With King Yu not being able to oversee the back of the house and the queen being thoughtful and slick, quietly bringing Wei Qingwan back is the best choice.” Wei Ruo said.

“Does Miss Wei think that the King Yu Residence will force Wei Qingwan to commit suicide as an apology in order to preserve their reputation?” Lin Fang asked.

“I really can’t guess that. I haven’t had much contact with King Yu and I only met the concubine of King Yu once at the Mid-Autumn Palace banquet.” Wei Ruo said.

Setting aside her personal grudges with Wei Qingwan, Wei Ruo certainly did not want the victim to apologize with suicide based on the incident where she almost lost her virginity. Wei Ruo cannot accept this custom where victims prove their innocence by committing suicide.

If people are already dead, how can they prove their innocence? What use is the honor of the family if there are no people left?

Loyal and Righteous Duke Residence.

Anxin Pavilion.

After Madam Yun was sent back, she fell ill. A doctor was called and said she was suffering from an overstrained heart due to anger.

She ran a fever all night and was out of her senses. It wasn’t until the next morning when the fever broke that she woke up a bit.

Hearing the results of the interrogation, Madam Yun almost fainted again as a wave of darkness overcame her.

“That damned Bai Chunxiao! Why did she have to harm my two daughters so?”

Madam Yun never hated Bai like she did at this moment.

In the past, Bai looked down on her, spoke ill of her behind her back, played some small tricks on her, and she could bear all of these. Even when she secretly borrowed money for Wei Qingwan, she tolerated it.

But this time, Bai must have been crazy to have done such an outrageous thing!

After calming down a bit, Yun asked Cuiping, “Where is Bai now?”

Cuiping replied, “She received five beatings and has been brought back. She is now recuperating in her residence.”
