Chapter 485: Hidden Selfishness
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Wei Long had a smile on his face, but there was a hint of scheming in it.
“In any case, we’re all discussing the whereabouts of our brothers. Since we’re already here, let’s come up with an idea. After all, there’s strength in numbers.”
“Alright.” Wu Kai said a few perfunctory words. “You can talk to President Shan. I’ll just sit at the side and listen to you.”
At this moment, Wu Kai looked around the shop with his peripheral vision. Other than the table they were sitting at, the atmosphere at the other tables was terrifyingly quiet, and there was even a hint of strangeness.
No matter how ignorant he was, he understood that afternoon tea should not be like this. Then there was only one explanation. These people were all prepared to deal with Shan Yue here in advance.
This time, Wu Kai was even more puzzled. Since Chang Ling had long known about this, why didn’t he send someone to protect her? Instead, he went to the hospital to tell him about it?
However, there was not much time for him to consider now. The most important thing now was to stop the eruption of the conflict between the two sides. Before he really faced the situation of choosing between righteousness and loyalty, he had to think of a way to remind Shan Yue to leave this troublesome place.
If it were any other time, when Wei Long saw that Wu Kai was in such a low mood, he would definitely ask him what had happened immediately. But all unnecessary things could only be put aside in the current situation.
“Then let’s just say what we have to say and get straight to the point.”
After Wei Long finished speaking to Shan Yue, he turned around and waved at the attendant in the shop. “Bring three of your signature drinks over. Less ice, thank you.”
“Alright, please wait a moment.”
Of course, this attendant was also someone Gao Hua had arranged in advance. The cameras above everyone’s heads had already been inserted into the prearranged images.
“President Shan, you also know that most of us are from the streets or entertainment venues. We might not be that popular. However, we’re all flesh and blood. We value friends.h.i.+p and loyalty.”
Wei Long patted his chest and said in a very intense tone, “As their elder brother, I naturally have the responsibility to consider this group of children in the future. 1 can’t let them live like this for the rest of their lives, right?”
“I won’t deny that it’s naturally a good thing that you’re thinking for them. But speaking of loyalty?”
Although Shan Yue’s expression was calm, there was a hint of mockery in her words. “Does Brother Long include yourself in your words?”
As soon as she finished speaking, Wu Kai, who was sitting beside her, was the first to be stunned. He knew that Shan Yue was already testing Wei Long and giving him a chance.
As long as Wei Long repented in time and stopped, there was still room for negotiation. However, if he did not repent, even if the heavens came today, they would not be able to protect him.
At this moment, Wu Kai could only pray in his heart that Wei Long could understand the meaning behind Shan Yue’s words. That was his last way out.
“Of… Of course. I’m their boss. If I can’t even do this, how can 1 set a good example for them and establish my prestige?”
Facing the question in front of him, Wei Long’s words were clearly lacking in confidence. He looked up slightly and met Shan Yue’s penetrating eyes. Wei Long began to feel a chill down his spine and feel uncomfortable, as if everything he did next was within the other party’s expectations.
When Wei Long said this, Wu Kai closed his eyes in disappointment. He was not only disappointed that his brother had become like this, but also regretful about his future.
Shan Yue raised her eyebrows. “Don’t worry too much. I was just asking casually. As long as it includes Brother Long, it’s fine. Continue.”
“So my idea is that since everyone has already chosen to follow you and you have such a huge company under your name, can you help everyone?”
“Being a small security officer or starting from a more basic job. I hope President Shan can give them a chance. At least let them have the most basic job and a guarantee of life.”
Wei Long’s expression was very sincere. If she had not known that he was hiding his selfish motives, Shan Yue would really have been prepared to talk to him about this..
