Ah! The Villains I Forced to Turn Evil Can Read My Mind-Chapter 128: There are more wolves and fewer rabbits, and there is only one rabbit, how to divide them?
Pei Mu and Pei Ci slammed their hands on the table, standing up angrily: "Qiao Chuchu is our family! Why should she go with you? And why should you take her away from us?"
Wei Sheng Wen Zhan, calm and unhurried, replied, "Simply because your relationship with her is not good."
The Pei family members paused.
Wen Zhan, with his legs crossed, spoke leisurely: "Have you resolved the rift between you? My Wei Sheng family has no such barriers with Qiao Chuchu. If she stays with us, she’ll enjoy herself, not suffer."
"What do you mean by that?" Pei Feng Long raised an eyebrow, frustrated. "Are you saying we’ve made Qiao Chuchu suffer?!"
Wei Sheng Wen Zhan looked at him as though amused: "You sent your sister to another house and left her there for years, without providing any living expenses, and you say she hasn’t suffered?"
Pei Feng Long furiously retorted, "We didn’t give her money, but we paid for her clothes, shoes, food, decorations, the maid, and the driver! Even that house was bought for her by us!"

Wei Sheng Bie He, twirling a prayer bead, interjected slowly, "Owning a gold mine and acquiring a gold mine are not the same thing."
Everyone turned to look at him.
He mocked, "No matter how many gold mines you give her, it’s still not as good as letting her control the gold mines herself."
Pei Youchuan laughed loudly, "How we give Qiao Chuchu pocket money is our private matter. You have no right to judge!"
Wei Sheng Bie He casually replied, "If Qiao Chuchu is with me, I’ll give her plenty of money to manage. If she wants to open a company, she can open one. If she wants to do something, I’ll unconditionally support her."
Pei Youchuan gritted his teeth, his expression becoming increasingly ferocious: "Who do you think you are to support her?"
The others glared at Bie He with suspicion.
Bie He, sensing the wary gazes, calmly responded, "As the supporting character who can hear her thoughts."
"Not allowed!!" Pei Bu Xian couldn't stand it anymore. He stood up, his voice rising in anger, "Our family doesn’t lack companies! It’s Qiao Chuchu who doesn’t want to be a boss. She just wants to focus on painting and building her career. That’s why we didn’t open a company for her!"
He was enraged like a bloated pufferfish, "The rift between us and her is something that has built up over time, and we’ll handle it ourselves. Qiao Chuchu is our family, and no matter what, it’s not up to her to live with you!"
Lin Shen frowned, standing up to mediate: "Can we stop arguing? Qiao Chuchu is a great girl. Whenever it’s our turn in the storyline, she’ll come to us. Each of our families doesn’t need to monopolize her. She’s someone who values emotions deeply!"
He pointed to Lin Qing: "When my sister was going through her storyline, it was Qiao Chuchu who risked her life to save her. She even died once for my sister, and again for rescuing Xigao and Lou Yue Jue. She could have ignored it, but she didn’t, because she cares deeply. If she knew we could hear her thoughts and that we were fighting over her, how would she feel?!"
The room fell silent.
Everyone lowered their gaze, unsure how to respond.
Wei Sheng Yu Can suddenly chuckled.
Lin Shen looked at her in confusion.
Yu Can crossed her pale legs, sitting composedly as she said, "It’s because it’s so precious that it should be monopolized, right?"
Lin Shen froze.
Everyone else tensed.
Wei Sheng Yu Can leaned back in her chair, her eyes crescent-shaped with a mocking smile on her lips: "After all, there’s nothing my Wei Sheng family can’t get."
Pei Yuan's face darkened as he snapped, "If it weren't for my sister, you'd be dead already. Now you want to take her from us?!"
"I know," Wei Sheng Yu Can said nonchalantly, "If it weren’t for her helping me, I would be dead, so now I want to keep her by my side to repay her. Is that a problem?"
Her eyes gleamed with a hint of malice, "And don't you all see it? The world is doing everything it can to erase her. My Wei Sheng family has always had strict security. Yet, a man carrying sulfuric acid breaks in and wasn’t even caught by our security. Isn’t that heaven giving him a chance to kill Qiao Chuchu?"
Her tone grew more intense: "If one day she dies, we won’t be able to bring her back! Do you understand what 'not being able to bring her back' means?!"
Pei Bu Xian, furious, slammed the table and shouted, "I can protect her!!!"
Wei Sheng Yu Can immediately fired back, "With what? With your love that you’re too scared to express out loud?!"
Pei Bu Xian’s breath caught, his face turned pale as he looked at her in disbelief: "How did you know..."
Wei Sheng Yu Can sneered, "Love is the most worthless thing in this world. You love her, but if you can’t protect her, what use is your love?"
Pei Che’s voice dropped, "No, you’re wrong. Whether we can protect her or not depends on our personal ability, not on feelings."
Yu Can frowned.
Pei Che stood up, looking down at her: "Qiao Chuchu protects you because she likes you. If she didn’t love you, you would have been dead by now."
Yu Can: "?!"
Pei Che, with his hands in his pockets, continued, "Except for us few brothers, who else is a supporting character that Qiao Chuchu likes?"
He turned to Lin Qing: "Lin Qing is one of them, right?"
Lin Qing jumped up, "Of course! Qiao Chuchu liked me the moment she saw me. She even helped me beat up Ji Yan Chuan!"
He then turned to Lou Ting Si and Lou Yue Jue: "Lou Ting Si and Lou Yue Jue are also villains she deeply admires."
Lou Yue Jue grinned innocently: "Although my sister always calls me a little pervert, she takes great care of me!"
Lou Ting Si nodded without comment.
Pei Che then looked back at Wei Sheng Yu Can: "And you, Wei Sheng Yu Can, if Qiao Chuchu didn’t like you, do you think you’d still be standing here?"
Yu Can’s expression darkened, and she flicked the cigarette out of her hand, silent.
Pei Che said with certainty, "Although you haven’t been around when Qiao Chuchu is with me, and I haven’t heard much of her opinion on you, from what I know of her, I believe she would help you unconditionally, because she likes you as a person, not because helping you brings her any advantage."
He stared at Wei Sheng Yu Can: "You can think that our love is worthless, but you’ve been helped by Qiao Chuchu. Are you going to say that her feelings for you are also worthless?"
Wei Sheng Yu Can stood frozen, unable to speak.
Wei Sheng Wen Zhan’s gaze was heavy.
Wei Sheng Bie He silently twirled his prayer beads.
Wei Sheng Lin anxiously tugged at his tie and sighed.
Only Huai Ling looked around in confusion and used sign language: "What are you all talking about?"
He turned to Wei Sheng Lin for help: "I can’t hear, and I can’t see all of your lip movements. Could someone explain it to me?"
Pei Che’s expression turned stern: "Wei Sheng Yu Can, our family’s matters are not for you to interfere with. You have no right to mock us. We will protect her with our lives, because that’s what we’ve always done."
Yu Can pursed her lips, slowly stood up, and with a face full of guilt, said, "You’re right, I have no right to judge your family. Of course, Qiao Chuchu helps me because she likes me. I... I used to think love was worthless, but after hearing you, I realized she helps me unconditionally. I was too shallow."
She admitted her mistake: "I’m sorry."
