Wei Mingxiao glanced at the jackets of the men. “Don’t tell me you have a signal jammer hidden!”

The more he thought about it, the more certain he was.

Wei Mingxiao didn’t do it personally because of his status, but he really wanted to check whether they were equipped with such devices.

Given Wei Zhiqian’s nature, it was something he was capable of doing.

“You, stand over here.” Wei Mingxiao thought for a moment and still felt that he should search them.

But they did not budge.

One of Wei Zhiqian’s subordinates actually dared to disobey Wei Mingxiao’s orders.

To these people, could it be that no one but the old folks, along with Wei Mingwen and his son, were considered part of the Wei clan?

They actually displayed such arrogance!

Wei Mingxiao was furious. He pointed his finger at the other man’s nose and said, “What? I can’t order you around anymore?”

“Remove your coats!” Wei Mingxiao said angrily, “I suspect that you have a signal jammer on you.”

Despite what Wei Mingxiao had said, none of Wei Zhiqian’s subordinates moved.

“You’re in the Wei clan, but don’t listen to our orders,” Wei Mingxiao said heatedly. “Why? I won’t be able to send you away?”

Wei Mingxiao’s clamoring attracted the attention of the others.

The old folks still didn’t get out of the car.

They sat in the car, still and unmoving.

Wei Zhiqian could handle such a small matter on his own. There was no need for them to be involved.

Wei Mingwen and Xiao Menghan were only there to hold the fort. They didn’t plan on making a move and just wanted to watch the show.

However, the Tan family didn’t interfere.

After all, it was the Wei family’s show. They could just watch from afar.

It wouldn’t look good if they went over.

In any case, they weren’t too far away.

They could see and hear everything clearly.

As Wei Zhiqian’s fiancée, Tan Mo unhesitatingly went over with Wei Zhiqian.

“Second Uncle, why are you angry?” Wei Zhiqian raised his eyes and looked in another direction, “There are quite a number of owners in this residential area. There are also retired elderly persons here. They come out for a stroll to pass the time. You’re making a big fuss here. It’s a bit embarrassing for the Wei family.”

“They all listen to my orders. If there’s anything, just let me know. There’s no need to make things difficult for my subordinates. They don’t have the final say,” said Wei Zhiqian.

“Okay, since you said so, then I’ll ask you directly,” said Wei Mingxiao. “Why are you getting them to monitor us?”

“To prevent anyone from destroying the evidence, of course,” said Wei Zhiqian.

“We never thought of doing that. Why did you get them to watch over us?!” Wei Mingxiao roared.

“Since you have not contemplated it, it doesn’t matter whether you are being watched. So why should you mind?” said Wei Zhiqian indifferently, “They didn’t block your personal freedom, but wherever you go, they will follow you. They can also attest to your innocence, in case the need arises.”

“If there’s no one following you, I can accuse you of destroying the evidence. Will you be able to defend yourself?” Wei Zhiqian said with a faint smile.

Wei Mingxiao was livid at Wei Zhiqian’s expression that seemed to say “I’m doing this for your own good”.

“Then what’s with the cell phone signal?” Wei Mingxiao was so irate that he was sputtering. “Why are you blocking our signal? Are you not allowing us to communicate with the outside world? Why don’t you just lock us up directly?”

“We have to have people around us. They watch over us, but they don’t need to do the same for the rest?” Wei Mingxiao said ferociously, “Why are we treated so differently?! You’re so prejudiced even before you take charge; wouldn’t it be worse when you take charge?”

“After all, you are Wei Keli’s parents and grandparents. I’m afraid that you are the very people who care about him the most.” Wei Zhiqian said, “Of course I’m worried that your concern for him will make you want to protect him, so I’m being cautious.”

“In the Wei family, if you make a mistake, it will not be tolerated.” Wei Zhiqian said, “Including the people close to him, they will also be monitored until the matter is settled.”

“This is the Wei family’s rule, not something that I came up with.” Wei Zhiqian said, “I hope that Second Uncle and Second Aunt, as well as Second Brother and Second Sister-in-law, will cooperate so that we are able to investigate this matter.”

“If Wei Keli is innocent and has been wronged, then all the more you shouldn’t act rashly so as not to make matters worse for him, right? Besides, if he’s really innocent, you don’t have to do anything. You just have to wait for the matter to be investigated, right?”

“You don’t have to hastily call him and tell him what happened,” Wei Zhiqian said.

Wei Mingxiao and the others were silent.

Wei Zhiqian had guessed their thoughts so accurately.

“Anyway, he’s on his way back now, so he’ll know what happened when he arrives,” Wei Zhiqian said. “Again, if he’s innocent, he will not be afraid of being investigated.”

“Isn’t there a saying? A righteous person is not afraid of a crooked shadow. This applies to Wei Keli, and it also applies to the four of you. If you have nothing to hide, there is nothing to fear. So what if others are watching you from the side? It is no loss to you anyway, isn’t it?”

“Human rights! Do you understand human rights?!” Sheng Yilan said scathingly. “What right do you have to block our signals and prevent us from contacting Keli?!”

“Because I’m the next head of the Wei family, I’m in charge of the Wei family’s affairs now. Because the state has its laws and the family has its rules. Because no matter what rights you have, you can’t override the customs and rules. You’ve enjoyed special privileges outside, but wish for the same at home? Doesn’t that mean you’re above the law and can do whatever you wish?”

“I may not be able to restrain you much outside, but you have to behave yourself in the Wei family’s territory! Don’t expect the same privileges within the family as you experience outside,” Wei Zhiqian said coldly.

It didn’t matter that Wei Mingxiao and the other three were much older than Wei Zhiqian.

They were still unable to suppress Wei Zhiqian in terms of imposing manner.

Wei Zhiqian already had the authority of being the clan head.

His words were as if they were naturally not to be refuted by the clan members.

“Please remember that the reason you can be spoiled outside is because of the Wei clan. Since the Wei clan has given you all this, then in the Wei clan, behave yourselves!”

“I was being polite just now, but that doesn’t mean I will back down,” Wei Zhiqian said coldly, “Don’t raise any objections to me. It’s useless. I’m using the clan’s rules for this matter!”

Even Wei Mingxiao couldn’t say anything to refute Wei Zhiqian’s words.

Wei Zhiqian had made it clear that Wei Mingxiao couldn’t use his identity as an elder to do anything.

Moreover, there were still the old folks watching.

“You should rest well.” Wei Zhiqian added, “The signal will naturally recover when Wei Keli arrives.”
