Addicted to My Cutie and Sweetie-Chapter 978: Even an Honest Judge Cannot Settle Family Disputes
He gambled and won, negotiating terms with the He Family.
Exchanging his own freedom for Kali’s peace.
He Feichen stopped speaking here, lifted the wine glass and continued drinking.
Qin Nanyu’s eyes deepened slightly; noticing He Feichen’s off state, he didn’t ask much, just clinked glasses with him, "Let me know if you need help."
"No, it’s useless."
He Feichen, eyes blurred by intoxication, cast a complex look at Qin Nanyu, a bitter smile on his lips, "Even a wise man cannot adjudicate family matters, it’s a debt to the He Family from a past life."
Qin Nanyu was at a loss for words.
It’s not that He Feichen lacks the ability to free himself from the He Family’s control, but if he were to truly sever ties with them, it would be an ordeal.
Not just him, the He Family would probably face the same.
They are all immediate kin.
Unless truly necessary, who would want to become estranged from their own family, severing ties completely?
"Ji Weitian, she..." He Feichen wanted to say something, but hesitated.
Qin Nanyu glanced at him, "Do you want her to help take care of Kali?"
He Feichen lowered his eyes, staring at the wine glass in his hands, saying nothing.
Qin Nanyu sneered, "You don’t need to ask her, she values Kali more than me. However, she’s prejudiced against you because of what happened to Kali. Every day, she can’t wait to constantly remind Kali to completely break away from you. Both your families and friends oppose you being together."
He Feichen: "..."
Understanding the pressure He Feichen was under, Qin Nanyu said nothing more.
He drank with him for a while, then called He Feichen’s assistant when he finally passed out.
"Take your young master home. Don’t alert anyone, and make sure no one knows he was here tonight."
Qin Nanyu helped lift He Feichen from the table, whispering instructions.
"Yes." The assistant supported He Feichen into the car, buckled his seatbelt, and discreetly took the completely inebriated He Feichen away before dawn.
Qin Nanyu leaned against the door, watching for a while, a vague glow in his dark eyes.
Only after He Feichen’s car disappeared did he turn and head upstairs.
-
The sunrise by the sea painted the sky with hues of color.
When Ji Weitian woke, she found herself tightly embraced.
She was momentarily dazed, unable to fully collect her thoughts.
A moment later, recollecting last night’s events before sleep, she clenched her fist, hitting Qin Nanyu several times.
Big bad wolf!
Devours without leaving a bone!
She was so exhausted that she couldn’t even remember how she fell asleep!
Ji Weitian felt both annoyed and aggrieved, overwhelmed with emotions, and could only vent by hitting Qin Nanyu.
"Awake?"
Qin Nanyu caught her wrist, unaffected by her playful punches, lowered his head to kiss her, then sat up.
"You’re putting too much pressure on yourself, you rarely sleep well. Letting you be a little tired, and then sleep, isn’t it much better?"
Qin Nanyu reached out to straighten her long hair, speaking nonchalantly.
Of course, it was for her good, but also benefited him.
But he certainly wouldn’t say the latter half.
Lately, because of worries over the experiment, Ji Weitian hadn’t been sleeping well. Whether it was the change of location or the exhausting events of yesterday, she slept soundly.
A long-lost good sleep.
Now she felt refreshed.
But could she not see through Qin Nanyu’s little schemes?
That was certainly impossible!
"I don’t want to hear your nonsense, I’m going to see Kali."
Ji Weitian refused to be brainwashed by Qin Nanyu, and quickly slipped away.
