Sensational! Fake Noble VS Real Genius-Chapter 1473: Yuk Weiyin’s Thoughts
Yuk Family.
Yuk Weiyin had just gotten up when the Patriarch Yuk called her to the study.
When Yuk Weiyin pushed the door open and entered, the Patriarch Yuk was on the phone. She gently knocked on the door and then stood at the entrance waiting.
Very soon, the Patriarch Yuk hung up the phone.
"Weiyin, you’re here?" The Patriarch Yuk looked at Yuk Weiyin, gently waving her over.
Seeing this, Yuk Weiyin stepped into the study.
The Patriarch Yuk took a seat behind the desk, then pointed to a chair opposite him and said to Yuk Weiyin, "Have a seat."
Just as Yuk Weiyin sat down, the Patriarch Yuk spoke again, "Did you hear that Zhong Mingxi’s status as heir candidate has been revoked?"
Yuk Weiyin nodded.
The Patriarch Yuk paused for two seconds, and then said to Yuk Weiyin, "I just received news that nobody knows whom Zhong Mingxi offended, but he was beaten and left with broken limbs, and he hasn’t regained consciousness yet."
"According to the hospital’s diagnosis, even if he recovers, he’ll likely be permanently crippled."
Yuk Weiyin was momentarily stunned by the news — it was something she hadn’t anticipated.
The Patriarch Yuk stared at Yuk Weiyin for a few seconds before speaking again, "Weiyin, although you’re not my biological daughter, I’ve treated you like my own over the years."
"As a father, I have to remind you that Zhong Mingxi is a lost cause now. I know you have feelings for him."
"But love is never as reliable as wealth and power. I hope you’ll think it over carefully."
After the Patriarch Yuk finished speaking, he stopped talking.
Yuk Weiyin sat there blankly for a long time. It wasn’t clear how much time passed before she finally said to the Patriarch Yuk, "Dad, I... please give me some time to think about it."
Actually, there’s no need to think. When Zhong Mingxi offended Fu Xiyan, Yuk Weiyin had already ruled him out.
Originally, she’d thought of keeping him around as a tool, but now it seemed unnecessary.
However, she couldn’t show this thought.
Not being the Patriarch Yuk’s biological child, she had always maintained the image of someone who values relationships deeply.
So, she had to portray herself as very reluctant and downcast, no matter what. 𝗳𝚛𝚎𝚎𝘄𝕖𝕓𝕟𝕠𝚟𝚎𝕝.𝗰𝕠𝐦
That way, the Patriarch Yuk wouldn’t think she was cold-hearted and would instead believe she valued her relationships.
Someone without the Yuk Family’s bloodline, if too heartless, would make him doubt her loyalty to the Yuk Family, thus not holding her in high regard.
Seeing this, the Patriarch Yuk sighed softly and said, "Alright, take your time to think it over."
Yuk Weiyin nodded gently, then lowered her gaze, appearing enveloped in an aura of melancholy to Patriarch Yuk.
The Patriarch Yuk sighed lightly again and shifted the topic, "By the way, how is your relationship with your sister?"
Yuk Weiyin knew who her sister referred to.
Ever since he learned that Gu Zhiqi knew Tang Yichen and had a good relationship with Liao Qingyuan, he had been urging her to contact Gu Zhiqi.
However, what he didn’t know was that she didn’t even have Gu Zhiqi’s contact information, but she wouldn’t mention this to the Patriarch Yuk. Instead, she replied to him somewhat helplessly, "She’s quite aloof and doesn’t like interacting with others."
The Patriarch Yuk, upon hearing this, said, "Kids are like that. Talk to her more, give her things she likes, and she’ll warm up to you."
"How about this? Find some time, make arrangements with your mom to visit the Gu Family, meet Gu Zhiqi, and connect with the Gu Family."
The Gu Family is not only the wealthiest in Hai City, but their fortune ranks in the top ten in Xia Country. Befriending them would be beneficial to the Yuk Family.
Yuk Weiyin naturally knew what the Patriarch Yuk was scheming, and as she listened to him, she struggled not to let the smile slip from her face.
However, she still smiled and nodded slightly to the Patriarch Yuk, "Alright."
The Patriarch Yuk, seeing this, gave a satisfied smile.
