Wen Qi chose to ignore it, not wanting to get involved in his brother's conversation, which was of questionable intelligence. Otherwise, he would be swindled out of money again. Although it was a small amount, he had never been so willing to be swindled before. His mood was slightly complicated. Just then, Secretary Zhao sent him a document, which he began to read.
Wen Cheng didn't care and focused on chatting with her sister-in-law.
[Gu Yuning]: Wen Cheng! You didn't tell me about this huge thing! What did President Wen do to you?!
Wen Cheng was stunned, as if he had forgotten to tell Gu Yuning alone. Mainly, today's scene made him forget many things!
[Wen Cheng]: I'm sorry, Sister Yu Ning, things happened a bit suddenly, I didn't have time~
[Gu Yuning]: Hey, it's alright as long as you're okay. I was originally prepared to rush into the office and argue with the police. I had mentally prepared myself for a long time.
Huh? Could it be that he's in the way of their first meeting?
Wen Cheng felt she couldn't bear this guilt.
[Wen Cheng]: Actually, you can go in and discuss it. President Wen welcomes thoughtful young people!
Gu Yuning rolled her eyes in response.
Is she crazy?
Wen Cheng felt that everyone had a deep misunderstanding about Brother Qi. Brother Qi was a very good person, and she had just bought him something!
Therefore, Wen Cheng decided that she must work hard for her brother's happiness!
The first step, for example, is to let his sister-in-law know his true identity, right?
Otherwise, it wouldn't be good if Gu Yuning was left feeling awkward when the whole family went to celebrate her birthday!
The key issue is that having this disguise makes it very inconvenient to advance the plot!
Wen Cheng looked up from her phone and turned to look at Wen Qi.
"Brother Qi, do you know Sister Gu Yuning?"
Wen Qi gave him a strange look, instinctively thinking that his old problem had relapsed.
"Are you getting engaged to another girl from the Gu family this time?"
puff!!!
Wen Cheng shook her head like a little windmill, "How could that be!"
Pointing fingers at your sister-in-law is a capital offense!
Wen Qi inexplicably breathed a sigh of relief.
Wen Cheng, clutching her heart which had almost been shattered by Wen Qi, continued to send messages to her sister-in-law.
[Wen Cheng]: Sister Yu Ning, have you ever wondered why I was called over by President Wen?
Looking at this inexplicable message, Gu Yuning casually asked a question.
Surely you can't be the Wen family's newly adopted son!
As for the truth, Gu Yuning believed more from the sisters in the group: Wen Qi was so aloof, maybe he just liked this kind of soft little dumpling.
[Wen Cheng]: Sister Yu Ning, you're amazing! You guessed right!
Fearing that Gu Yuning wouldn't believe her, Wen Cheng even secretly took a picture of Wen Qi's profile as he looked at the documents.
The sunlight after the storm seeped into the car, casting a soft golden glow on Wen Qi's chiseled profile. His slender fingers tapped lightly on the tablet, seemingly oblivious to the paparazzi. His expression was unusually gentle, quite unlike the usual Wen Qi.
Gu Yuning's eyes were glazed over, and she uttered the words "I rely on you" in her heart.

Chapter 23: Why speak such blunt truths!
Gu Yuning had never thought of herself as a jinx before, but today a miracle happened with Wen Cheng.
Oh right, I think she also said...
"Chengcheng, do you know what? The child that my dad's friend, Uncle Wen, adopted actually shares the same name. But I've heard that Wen Cheng is usually rude and irritable. You mustn't be like him!"
Gu Yuning almost coughed up a mouthful of blood.
Seeing that Gu Yuning hadn't sent any messages for a long time, Wen Cheng was confused. Was it that hard to accept? Or was she angry?
Wen Cheng thought about it for a moment, feeling that this was quite sudden, and added:
[Wen Cheng]: Sister Yu Ning, this is our family tradition. When you come to work at the company, you have to start from the bottom and not reveal your identity. Dad wants me to learn from my older brother! You're the first person I've ever met who knows my true identity~ I'm so sorry I lied to you~
After sending the message, Wen Cheng stared intently at her phone screen.
Wen Qi glanced at it out of the corner of his eye, then said, "If you get any closer, you can send messages with your face."
Wen Cheng immediately looked up and sent a message using her face. Then, as if struck by a thought, she suddenly giggled, "Brother Qi, shouldn't we call that phone a face phone?"
Wen Qi deeply questioned why he even bothered with Wen Cheng.
However, Wen Cheng's attention was not focused on this for long before Gu Yuning sent her a message.
[Gu Yuning]: ...Wen Cheng, you've kept this from me for so long, just wait until Monday to come and get a beating!
Wen Cheng was so shocked she lost her color. Was her sister-in-law really this horrible?!
After she married Brother Qi...
Wen Cheng looked at Wen Qi in horror, "Brother Qi, if my sister-in-law bullies me in the future, will you help me?"
Wen Qi turned around, raised an eyebrow, and gave a smile that was anything but friendly. "My advice is that you should pray I didn't stir things up."
Wen Cheng was so scared that his curly hair stood on end. This house was too terrifying. He had to save money and move quickly!
The driver in the front seat thought: Oh no, the second young master is so easily frightened, he'll become the eldest young master's future entertainment.
As it turned out, Wen Cheng did indeed become Wen Qi's lifelong pastime, though it required quite a bit of thought to enjoy it.
...
When Wen Cheng returned home, he felt the warmth of his mother's love as soon as he entered the door. Wen Yin hugged him without any regard for the occasion. Although it was a bit hot in the middle of summer, Wen Cheng still obediently hugged her back.
Little Green Tea came home a little late today. He didn't return until the family had finished dinner. By then, Wen Cheng had already finished her dessert, watched the melodramatic soap opera with her mother, and taken a nice hot bath before going to bed.
Just as Wen Cheng was about to close his eyes, Wen Yunyi knocked on his door.
This should be considered Wen Yunyi's first visit to his room.
Wen Yunyi couldn't help but think it was tacky when he saw the room decorated with ostentatious luxury, but he still maintained a gentle and weak appearance, looking like a harmless weasel, but actually, he could scratch people to death.
Wen Cheng sat on the bed, and Wen Yunyi sat on the sofa opposite her. They looked at each other for a long time before Wen Yunyi couldn't help but speak.
"These past few days, my younger brother has been busy with the new quarterly contract and hasn't had time to ask how my older brother's work is going. I hope you won't blame me, older brother~" Wen Yunyi's words were that of a true green tea master.
Wen Cheng remembered what Wen Qi had told him: he must not let himself look so easy to bully, after all, he now had Brother Qi backing him up!
"No way~" Wen Cheng said in one breath as if she had eaten ten bottles of ice cream, her puppy eyes filled with innocence, and then the next second she started to get irritated, "After all, I didn't care what contract you signed."
Wen Yunyi's expression changed, and he suddenly started wiping away his tears. This shows that a professional "green tea" doesn't need to rely on those cheap eye drops at all.
"I knew the older brother was still bothered by what the younger brother said before. Does the older brother not want to forgive the younger brother for his slip of the tongue?"
"If I say no, are you going to tell me you don't believe me unless I'm willing to attend that cruise ship party with you?" Wen Cheng frankly predicted.
......
Wen Yunyi felt that Wen Cheng was completely out of control, it was simply outrageous!
Wen Yunyi wiped away his tears, "Did Xingwei and the others tell you, brother? Look, you can still make a lot of friends when you go out. I really want to make up with you, so can you please stop isolating me from now on? I really don't want this~"
Oh, so that's where the ailment is.
"Qi-ge and I didn't isolate you~" Wen Cheng shrugged, indicating complete honesty.
Wen Yunyi gritted his teeth inwardly, thinking, "Not a word!"
"Brother, don't lie to me. Yesterday, Big Brother took you into the private elevator in front of everyone and let you rest in his office, but you didn't tell me~" Wen Yunyi's eyes welled up with tears again.
"Then do you want this good fortune?" Wen Cheng asked bluntly.
Wen Yunyi choked up. He was just angry that his older brother was giving him special treatment, but he had no intention of sacrificing himself to get close to his older brother!
Wen Cheng thought that Wen Yunyi really liked her older brother, but just didn't dare to say it, so she stood up generously and said, "Wait a minute, I'll go call my older brother and ask him to take you along tomorrow too!"
Just as Wen Cheng stood up, Wen Yunyi also jumped up, grabbing Wen Cheng's hand with a troubled expression, "That's not necessary."
Wen Cheng looked puzzled.
"That's not what I meant. I just wanted to know why my brother called you upstairs," Wen Yunyi realized that the tea he had brewed was a waste to put in front of Wen Cheng, so he could only ask in the most direct way.
Wen Cheng suddenly realized, "Big brother pulled me upstairs to talk about dreams!"
A dream, aspiration?
Wen Yunyi was stunned by this unexpected result.
The money-making machine was talking to his younger brother about his dreams?
Could there be a more outrageous answer than this?
Wen Cheng's dream? Isn't his dream to become the vice president of the Wen Group so that he can control the entire Wen Group and kick out this fake young master?
Wen Yunyi scoffed inwardly.
The gaze directed at Wen Cheng became even more wary. Compared to the loud and easily angered Wen Cheng of the past, this Wen Cheng, who seemed completely uninterested in the family business and only knew how to play dumb, was far more terrifying.
Wen Yunyi felt he couldn't just sit and wait to die.
"Brother, if you and my eldest brother really haven't isolated me, could you come with me to the cruise ship party? You have no idea what people outside are saying about the three of us brothers right now,"
Wen Cheng became interested. "What were your comments?"
He said the three of us brothers didn't get along.
Wen Cheng: Why are you speaking such blunt truths!
Wen Cheng stood up and patted Wen Yunyi's shoulder earnestly: "Little brother, it's hard for one person to withstand the opinions of many! Even if we go, they will just find another reason to talk about us behind our backs. If you keep trying to prove yourself for these rumors, you will fall into their trap in the end. The innocent are innocent, and there is no need to prove anything!"
Wen Yunyi was greatly shocked by Wen Cheng's words and almost believed them!
