Chapter 198

"Yes," Xiao Ya looked up. "But I need to make one more call. Is that okay, Ke Muning?"

Ke Muning met her eyes. What could he say?

"Go ahead."

Xiao Ya picked up the phone and dialed another number.

Across from her, Ke Muning glanced down at her plate. The food had gone cold. Was it really not that she disliked the taste?

Ke Muning watched her make the call, then waved over one of his men.

Shortly after, the man returned with two boxes of pizza.

As Xiao Ya sat there talking on the phone, Ke Muning washed his hands and started stuffing a slice of pizza into her mouth.

"Mmph..." Xiao Ya hadn\'t even seen what he was feeding her before instinctively opening her mouth. With it full, her speech became muffled.

"Who? Who is it?" The person on the other end of the line asked in panic.

"...It\'s, it\'s me, Xiao Ya," Xiao Ya managed to say while chewing with difficulty.

On the other end, Xing Siyun rolled out of bed in alarm: "X-Xiao Ya? Are you okay? What\'s wrong? Why do you sound like that?"

She sounded like she was having trouble breathing and speaking, which conjured up a terrifying image in Xing Siyun\'s mind.

"Because I\'m eating something."

"..."

After a brief moment of speechlessness, Xing Siyun quickly regained her urgent tone: "I, I\'ll go find Second Young Master right away..."

"No need to find Second Uncle. Sit down and listen to me." The little one had finally swallowed her mouthful and could speak more clearly.

Hearing this, Xing Siyun instinctively obeyed and sat back down properly.

Meanwhile, Ke Muning tried to stuff more pizza into Xiao Ya\'s mouth. She couldn\'t push it away, so she reluctantly grabbed his wrist to hold him off, glaring at him.

Ke Muning thought to himself, she\'s quite cute.

He shook his head: "Who told you to be so small? Can\'t even swallow a bite of pizza?"

After saying that, he still tore the pizza into smaller pieces.

By the time Xiao Ya finished her call with Xing Siyun, her stomach was full.

She even couldn\'t help but let out a small burp on the phone.

Xing Siyun, who hadn\'t been able to sleep or eat well for days: "..."

With a complex expression, she cautiously said, "So, that\'s it then?"

"Mm-hmm, bye-bye."

Xing Siyun let out a sigh on the other end, thinking to herself that it was rare to see a child so incredible!

Ke Muning asked, "Have you thought of a plan?"

Xiao Ya nodded.

Ke Muning picked her up and placed her on his shoulders, carrying her upstairs: "Come on, teach me Hua Country language."

He hadn\'t taken it seriously before, but now that he was... Ke Muning realized just how damn difficult it was!

Ke Muning\'s secretary woke up groggily in the middle of the night and opened an email from his boss, which starkly requested that he find three Hua Country language teachers.

The secretary: ?

Were they planning to do business in Hua Country? That wouldn\'t work. Their business would easily become the number one terrorist organization there!

This was the umpteenth time Wei Lin had opened his bedroom door, only to be faced with a stern-faced bodyguard before he could even step out.

"I just want to see Second Young Master," Wei Lin forced a smile.

"Second Young Master won\'t see you, to avoid anyone saying it\'s unfair and that he\'s deliberately suppressing you..."

"Then give me my phone."

"This is also for your own good. What if someone contacts you through the phone and recklessly comes to rescue you? Wouldn\'t that confirm your guilt?"

"Then at least let me out of this door... What? I can\'t even leave this room?"

"It\'s all for the sake of your innocence. Anyone you come into contact with could potentially frame you," the bodyguard remained unmoved.

It\'s all for your sake.

It\'s all for you.

Wei Lin recalled the tactics he had once used on the Wei Wenjun brothers... The servants repeatedly telling them, "It\'s for the sake of your health," "So you don\'t embarrass yourself at the banquet."

Well...

The tables have turned!

He looked down at the wheelchair he was sitting in... Wei Wenjun\'s bullet had pierced his calf, causing him to run a high fever for several days. He still couldn\'t walk and was forced to use a wheelchair.

Wei Lin gritted his teeth hard, suppressing the anger in his heart.

He knew this was deadly!

When dealing with the Wei Wenjun brothers back then, it wasn\'t just about using soft tactics to repeatedly reopen their wounds and push them into hell... Actually, a more important point was to keep them from appearing in public.

People are very pragmatic animals.

Just like now, if he couldn\'t show his face for a long time, his subordinates would naturally start to speculate endlessly...

They would wonder if he had already lost his power...

Such speculation would make those people become hesitant. After all, Wei Wenjun was the legitimate heir of the Gui Family. Turning to Wei Wenjun\'s side would be less of a psychological burden for them.

The most terrifying thing was...

The projects he was responsible for had been having a lot of problems recently.

If they suddenly lost him and found that not much had changed, that would be even more fatal!

Any evidence or accusations were secondary; these could all be mediated. But losing power was truly deadly!

This was the power of "house arrest"!

Where did it all go wrong?

He shouldn\'t have brought Xiao Ya back in the first place! But if he hadn\'t brought Xiao Ya back... he wouldn\'t have been able to get the money and shares from the fund...

Who could have imagined that this child not only had extensive connections... but was also too ruthless! Too ruthless towards herself!

Wei Lin slammed his fist against the wall.

The wind blew the curtains, and as he looked over, instead of seeing clean glass windows, he saw raised wire mesh... Just like being imprisoned! Wei Lin cursed a few times.

Each following day was unbearable.

Being confined here, Wei Lin\'s perception of time became blurred...

Just as his mental state was deteriorating bit by bit, wishing Wei Wenjun would quickly find some evidence to let him out for questioning...

"Second Young Master wants us to bring you over." This time, the door opened from the outside.

Wei Lin\'s scattered mind instantly focused.

"Let\'s go," he said, adjusting his tie.

Wei Lin was brought to the main hall.

In the hall, the main members of the group\'s board of directors were seated on both sides, with Wei Wenjun in the main seat. He no longer cared if people looked at his lame leg.

Whoever looked at him, he\'d hit them.

Wei Lin took a deep breath. Seeing this setup, he knew the final "judgment" was coming.

A servant pushed him forward, making him feel both awkward and ashamed.

It was as if he and Wei Wenjun had switched roles.

And now, under everyone\'s gaze, he was forced into such a weak position!

As he got closer, he could smell the faint scent of gunpowder on Wei Wenjun. He felt the wound in his calf starting to ache again. But he still managed to put on a rare display of harsh words: "Second Young Master, have you found anything?"

Wei Wenjun sneered: "You don\'t seem to care at all about Xiao Ya\'s safety. Is it because you clearly know whose hands she\'s in and what situation she\'s in?"

Wei Lin was at a loss for words.

He had truly been confused from being confined, forgetting about this crucial matter.

Wei Lin gathered his spirits: "Does Second Young Master really care about Xiao Ya? I see that Second Young Master\'s mind is all on how to convict me. Was Xiao Ya really kidnapped? Or is it just an excuse for Second Young Master to seize power?"

"Seize power?" Wei Wenjun sneered, "Who do the Gui Family\'s assets belong to? Do they belong to you? I am a legitimate member of the Gui Family. Seizing power from you? What power do you have that belongs to you? Don\'t you feel ashamed saying such things?"

Wei Lin frowned.

He cursed inwardly again.

He had truly been confined for too long and said something inappropriate. But what he said wasn\'t really wrong; Wei Wenjun was clearly seizing power! The board of directors weren\'t fools, they could all see it!

Wei Lin lowered his head: "You are seizing my rights as the executive CEO. The Gui Family\'s assets are not for you to decide either. The old man is still alive; it\'s up to him to decide."

"These days, I wonder if the cruise ship case problem has been resolved?" Wei Lin looked around, deliberately bringing up a major issue within the group.
