Chapter 382: Can We Bring Weiyi Here to Stay in Our House?
Although they were brothers in name, Shi Yuting and Shi Tiannan seldom spoke to one another. They would not even greet each other and simply treated each other as strangers when they ran into each other like this.
Shi Yuting had never addressed Shi Tiannan as his ‘elder brother’ ever since his childhood.
Shi Yuting simply glanced at Shi Tiannan and walked past him without saying anything at all.
When Shi Nuannuan, who was sitting on the sofa, saw both of them walking in, she rushed over to them excitedly before she said, “Brothers!”
She turned her gaze around and shouted excitedly, “Xiangyi!”
Xiangyi glanced at the playful expression on Shi Nuannuan’s face and simply lowered his head without saying anything at all.
During dinner.
Shi Tiannan was also sitting at the dining table tonight. Shi Tiannan had always felt that he was superfluous ever since Shi Yuting had been brought back to this home more than twenty years ago.
Even though Shi Xiaotian had also treated him very well when he was still alive, there was still a clear comparison between him and Shi Yuting.
This was especially obvious when it came to dealing with *** affairs. For the longest time, Shi Le would only bring Shi Yuting around with him but would never allow Shi Tiannan to step in and do anything about these affairs at all. This was the obvious difference in both of their identities.
Therefore, Shi Tiannan had always hated them!
He never felt that Shi Le was his grandfather but he always felt that his so-called brother and Shi Le were in the same family.
In his opinion, he had always been superfluous!
“Yuting, if you continue moving around more these days, it will definitely be of great help as you run for president.”
Shi Le suddenly spoke as he sat in the main seat. Although his grandson would annoy and frustrate him to death most of the time, he would still think dearly of his precious grandson.
Shi Yuting was very clear about this matter.
However, he knew that his grandfather could be really stubborn about his views on certain matters.
When she noticed that her grandfather’s tone was a little kinder, Shi Nuannuan cautiously asked, “Grandpa, since brother’s engagement to the Tengtang family has already been annulled, then can we bring Weiyi here to stay in our house?”
As soon as he heard Shi Nuannuan’s words, his expression changed immediately. He put down the cutleries in his hands and looked at Shi Nuannuan as he said, “Even though the marriage between Yuting and the Tengtang family had already been canceled, that does not necessarily mean that I will accept Zuo Weiyi.”
Shi Nuannuan could not help but sigh as she pouted out of frustration when she heard her grandfather’s words.
“I am already full.”
Shi Yuting suddenly put down his bowl and chopsticks. After that, he stood up and left the dining table immediately.
When Shen Lanzhi saw Shi Yuting leaving the dining table, she turned around and whispered to her daughter, “You should not mention this matter in the future.”
Shi Nuannuan could not help but feel a little aggrieved as she was reprimanded by her mother. “I was just hoping that Weiyi will be able to move in and live with us!”
Although the mother and daughter were whispering very softly amongst themselves, Shi Le who was sitting in the main seat could still hear their conversation very clearly.
He really did not have any intention of accepting Zuo Weiyi into his family. After all, her identity as an illegitimate child would always be a forbidden thing to him.
The Shi family was a very honorable and powerful family. How could he possibly accept an illegitimate child into his family? How could he possibly accept an illegitimate child as his granddaughter-in-law? If Shi Yuting was going to insist on being with that illegitimate child, then the best that he could do was to simply allow Zuo Weiyi to live in the Shi family mansion in Country Z. Moreover, he would never allow them to reveal this matter to the public. This was his bottom line.
The next day.
Shi Yuting had to go to the *** to deal with some major national affairs even on the weekend.
He put on a navy blue handmade suit and a sky blue shirt early in the morning, and his perfect figure was simply perfect!
He was planning to leave as soon as he was done with breakfast, but Shi Nuannuan suddenly called out to him.
