Weng Yong’an furrowed his brows, "Why are you so sure that child isn’t mine?" 𝐟𝐫𝕖𝗲𝘄𝚎𝗯𝕟𝐨𝕧𝐞𝚕.𝕔𝕠𝐦

Beisitian raised an eyebrow, "Is that yours?"

Weng Yong’an reacted as if his tail had been stepped on, immediately denying, "Of course not!"

Beisitian nodded, casually glanced outside, then turned to Weng Yong’an and said, "In that case, just answer me."

Weng Yong’an looked into Beisitian’s calm eyes and sighed; he could only trust her now. Tian Qiu had been rebellious since her youth, never listening to her parents, not even more so to her grandparents, so he could only hope for Beisitian’s help.

It turned out the woman was the daughter of a business partner of the Weng Family; the two families had just signed a big deal. They attended the signing banquet as the younger generation, and afterward, hints started to arise at home, which he pretended to misunderstand.

The woman repeatedly sought him out, inviting him to dinner and fun, all of which he refused. Once, under pressure from business and family, he had no choice but to have dinner with the woman, during which he explicitly expressed his devotion to his wife, hoping she wouldn’t entangle him further.

What he said then was quite tactful, yet it still angered that family, who bluntly told the Weng Family that if the two of them got together, the business would continue; if not, they would go their separate ways.

Things had come to this point, the Weng Family had no options left. The contract was a significant deal, and they couldn’t possibly forgo it for a woman who wouldn’t lay eggs. Furthermore, the Tian Family paled in comparison to that family and faced a massive crisis; the choice was a no-brainer.

But the Weng Family also knew Weng Yong’an’s temperament; no one could force him, just like when he wanted to marry Tian Qiu, the entire family opposed it to no avail!

Things dragged on for over two months, so when that woman claimed to be pregnant with Weng Yong’an’s child, the Weng Family was overjoyed, tacitly allowing the woman to confront Tian Qiu, and managed to stall Weng Yong’an to let the woman successfully find Tian Qiu.

That was the gist of it.

Beisitian listened in silence, and it seemed there was no improper relationship between Weng Yong’an and the woman, contrary to what she had thought, thankfully so.

Thinking of this, Beisitian’s expression softened a bit, and her gaze at Weng Yong’an no longer carried icy shards.

Weng Yong’an clearly felt the change in Beisitian’s demeanor. He raised his head and said, "You know where Xiaoqiu is, don’t you?"

Beisitian neither confirmed nor denied, instead asking a different question, "What do you think of your family’s actions?"

Weng Yong’an felt Beisitian wanted him to state his position, but he thought it unnecessary to make such a declaration to a cousin; it would be more appropriate to make it to Xiaoqiu’s parents.

Beisitian glanced at Weng Yong’an, took a sip of water, and said flatly, "Only I can make her believe you now, but you have to make me believe you first. Your family treating her this way is unacceptable; the Tian Family won’t agree, and neither will I."

What Beisitian said left Weng Yong’an a bit surprised; this girl was young, yet spoke with a significant tone, as if assuming a high status which made Weng Yong’an feel somewhat displeased.

Though displeased, the way Beisitian said these assertive words and her attitude seemed natural and harmonious, exuding confidence, yet he didn’t know where this confidence came from?

From the Tian Family? She was only the granddaughter of the Tian Family; even Tian Qiu, a true princess of the Tian Family, didn’t have such confidence. If she relied on the Tian Family, that would be wishful thinking.

Beisitian sensed Weng Yong’an’s displeasure, but she didn’t care and didn’t probe further. In her past life, she stood at the peak of life, and she wouldn’t fall into the mundane in this life; some things are innate and others formed by the environment over time.

Weng Yong’an clearly hadn’t thought it through; since he didn’t want to say more, she had no reason to force him. Let him resolve things with Tian Qiu himself.

Weng Yong’an stared at Beisitian for a while, feeling inexplicably uneasy as if he should make some promise, yet as a brother-in-law making promises to a cousin seemed inappropriate. After thinking it over, he had nothing to say, sighed, and left.

As Weng Yong’an reached the door, Beisitian’s leisurely voice came from behind, "If you don’t settle this matter, the Weng Family won’t complete any deals for the next three years."

Weng Yong’an frowned and turned back; was she threatening him? Facing Beisitian’s calm eyes, his unease deepened. Without saying anything, he turned and left.

He had initially thought Beisitian didn’t care about Tian Qiu, but now it seemed her composure and patience alone were uncommon, but that’s as far as it went.

A woman, how much could she achieve!

From the east wing, Tian Qiu confirmed Weng Yong’an had closed the door and quietly emerged, entering the hall, watching Beisitian maintain her previous posture while sipping water, and silently sat down.

"Did you hear everything?" Beisitian asked blandly.

Tian Qiu nodded; she had been eavesdropping outside earlier, unexpectedly discovered by Beisitian.

"What do you plan to do?" Beisitian continued to ask.

Tian Qiu remained silent, shaking her head, "I don’t know, I can’t trust his words." Her distrust stemmed more from fear of disappointment.

Beisitian toyed lightly with the teacup, "What do you plan to do about the Weng Family?"

Tian Qiu fell silent again.

Beisitian glanced at her and said, "I don’t like associating with cowards."

If you lacked the ability before, now with the ability to fight back, you shouldn’t remain silent and endure, encouraging those people.

Tian Qiu’s sincerity towards her was real, including going to Anding City to help her, including her protection upon coming to Beijing, which she felt in her heart.

You treat me genuinely, I am willing to treat you genuinely in return.

Beisitian naturally wouldn’t stand by and watch, but the key still lay in Tian Qiu’s attitude.

Tian Qiu was a bit angry, "I’m not a coward!"

But she had no choice; the Tian Family was facing crises, barely able to save themselves; she couldn’t add to their troubles because of her own issues.

"If Sister Qiu has the heart, I’ll help you," Beisitian said with a slight smile.

Tian Qiu was stunned, "How will you help?"

Beisitian leaned forward, signaling Tian Qiu to come closer, and whispered a few words near her ear.

Tian Qiu was incredulous, "Can this really work? Beibei, I’m not trying to discourage you, but the Tian Family’s status is not as it used to be, and with this incident, I’m afraid it won’t hold..." she wasn’t trying to understate herself, but that was the truth.

Beisitian shook her head, "It’s no longer an issue, and this time, I don’t plan to rely on the Tian Family."

If not the Tian Family, then where would she draw support from? In Beijing, she was a stranger to the environment.
