Inheritance of Two Trillion

Chapter 1404: Chapter 1267 Big Brother Wei Xueqi_3

”Then I’d like to ask you a question!”

”When Xuelian was still a child, being bullied by a bunch of her cousins, where were you?”

Wei Xueqi’s smile slightly faded as he locked his gaze on Bai Xiaosheng.

”Did you step forward to shield her, or sternly scold your own cousins? I’d like to know, back then, did you have this supposed aura to stand up and tell the ones bullying Xuelian, ’Whoever dares to bully her, I’ll make them taste this feeling tenfold, a hundredfold’?”

”Did you ever step forward?”

”Did you ever do anything?”

Bai Xiaosheng concluded his words, his eyes revealing undisguised rage and derision.

Back then, if Bai Yuefeng hadn’t emerged to protect Wei Xuelian, who knows what kind of miserable childhood Wei Xuelian would’ve faced, possibly leaving her with indelible psychological scars!

At that time, where was Wei Xueqi, the supposed older brother?

Now, he dares to jump out with his polished demeanor and threaten me?

Ridiculous!

Absurd!

Filled with anger, Bai Xiaosheng had no intent to offer him any face.

What a joke of a ”real brother,” a joke of the so-called ”Wei Family’s genius”!

Unworthy to talk about familial love, yet dares to reason with Bai Xiaosheng!

Get lost!

Wei Xueqi looked at Bai Xiaosheng, a faint chill in his gaze, as if Bai Xiaosheng’s words had angered him.

After Bai Xiaosheng finished speaking, Wei Xueqi slowly said, ”I’ll give you a chance to take back your words and apologize to me!”

Wei Xueqi’s tone was purely commanding.

It seemed that if Bai Xiaosheng didn’t comply, Wei Xueqi would interfere, obstructing Bai Xiaosheng’s relationship with Wei Xuelian.

This sort of meddling wasn’t a difficult task for someone like the so-called ”Wei Family’s genius.”

Bai Xiaosheng looked contemptuously at this so-called brother-in-law, feeling an immense satisfaction in his heart. Without hesitation, he immediately replied with a laugh, ”What’s done is done; my words will not be changed!”

”Xueqi, if you’re unhappy, if you’re angry, then I’m willing to bear your wrath!”

”Moreover, if I ever make Xuelian sad or hurt, feel free to exact revenge on me. I’m willing to endure it, as it would be what I deserve!”

Bai Xiaosheng spoke with absolute clarity and openness, then looked ahead and said, ”That’s all for now; I need to go see Sir Wei now, so I won’t waste any more breath here with Xueqi!”

With that, Bai Xiaosheng started walking forward, intending to pass by Wei Xueqi.

As the two gradually approached each other, about to brush past, Bai Xiaosheng suddenly noticed Wei Xueqi was smiling.

This smile was different from the previous ones.

Wei Xueqi’s smile was unexpectedly warm and genuine.

This smile caught Bai Xiaosheng off guard.

”Sheng, you’re quite remarkable, truly remarkable.” Wei Xueqi smiled and said, ”My sister has quite the eye for people.”

What was this supposed to mean, recognition?

How unfortunate—Bai Xiaosheng didn’t acknowledge this so-called brother-in-law who lacked familial love!

If Wei Xueqi had stood up in the past, even with the smallest act of defending Wei Xuelian—even if it was just words—maybe Bai Xiaosheng would have looked at him differently.

But sadly, the past cannot be reversed!

Things left undone back then couldn’t be redeemed a thousandfold now; Bai Xiaosheng wouldn’t recognize him!

Even now, no matter how sweet Wei Xueqi’s words sounded, Bai Xiaosheng would treat them with indifference, unmoved in his opinion of Wei Xueqi!

Wei Xueqi seemed to have seen through Bai Xiaosheng’s thoughts.

With Wei Xueqi’s intelligence, this wasn’t difficult.

”You still bear resentment that I didn’t protect my sister Xuelian enough back then, don’t you?” Wei Xueqi smiled and said, ”Yes, back then, when my cousins scared her with caterpillars, I didn’t stop them.”

”When they broke her toys, I ignored it.”

”When they snatched her belongings, I didn’t step forward, not even saying a word.”

Wei Xueqi spoke with complete ease, ”Think about it, back then, our father was about to triumph in the race to become the Family Head. The jealousy it provoked speaks for itself; can we say the children acted without the adults’ influence? Highly unlikely. The trouble my siblings and I faced was never just simple conflicts between children. Otherwise, with her being so adorable, why would the cousins still bully her?”

Was there such a reason?

Bai Xiaosheng paused mid-step.

Wei Xueqi continued smiling, ”As children of the family, how could we have conflicts or fights with our cousins back then? If word got out, our father would bear accusations of poor upbringing. ’How can one govern a nation that cannot govern one’s household?’ Others would then have an excuse to attack him. Even if my father had just assumed the Family Head position, those uncles’ children would’ve treated us even worse! What could we do? We had to endure!”

Such spineless reasoning—Wei Xueqi actually spoke it with ease.

Bai Xiaosheng felt pure disgust in his heart.

How could someone be so self-righteous about letting others bully his own sister!

Truly incomprehensible—did this guy have something wrong with his head?

Bai Xiaosheng truly wanted to question Wei Xueqi.

”I know you think I should have stepped up. Little kids fighting or yelling—would that really have had such an impact on our father? Haha. But then consider, given my physique at the time, could I really have handled so many children? Had I stepped forward, wouldn’t I have just been beaten up myself?”

Wei Xueqi spoke effortlessly, as if his reasoning was entirely justified.

Bai Xiaosheng looked at him coldly, feeling he’d never despised someone more.

Wei Xueqi made him furious!

Seeing Bai Xiaosheng’s expression, Wei Xueqi’s smile deepened. He even leaned closer, his voice low near Bai Xiaosheng’s ear—

”See, I’ve been very upfront with you. But what you don’t know is—who brought Bai Yuefeng together with my sister, introducing them and helping their friendship to blossom? Who taught Bai Yuefeng those methods to punish my annoying cousins? It was me! You have no idea how much I’ve cared about my sister!”

Wei Xueqi’s last words made Bai Xiaosheng freeze, his mind reeling, looking at Wei Xueqi with disbelief.

”I once said, whoever dares let my sister suffer, I’ll make them taste that suffering tenfold, a hundredfold.”

Wei Xueqi smiled, stepping back and lightly patting Bai Xiaosheng on the shoulder.

”And that includes you!”
