The wealthy daughter breaks through the situation with wisdom

In the quiet tea room, the aroma of tea filled the air. Dai Shiya took a sip of tea, but the warm liquid could not dispel the chill in her heart. Across from her, Wei Qing listened carefully to Dai Shiya's story, her slender fingers tapping lightly on the table, making a crisp sound.

"So, what are you going to do?" Wei Qing put down the teacup and looked at Dai Shiya with burning eyes.

"Although Dai Qiang has suffered a setback this time, he will definitely not give up." Dai Shiya frowned slightly, "I must win over more allies as soon as possible to gain a firm foothold in the Dai family."

Wei Qing nodded in understanding, "When do you plan to take action?"

"There is no time to lose," Dai Shiya said firmly, "I will arrange for us to meet formally in the next few days."

"Okay, I believe in your choice." Wei Qing agreed without hesitation.

Their conversation was caught by a pair of sinister eyes in the corner. Zhao Lei's fingers holding the teacup suddenly tightened, and his knuckles turned white. How could he allow such a thing to happen? Wei Qing could only be his ally!

"Go, check Wei Qing for me, especially her family. No matter how big or small the details are, you have to find out everything for me!" Zhao Lei gritted his teeth and ordered the assistant beside him. His eyes were vicious and cruel, like a poisonous snake spitting out its tongue, which was chilling.

The assistant took the order and left, leaving Zhao Lei sitting alone in the shadows with a sinister smile on his face. Wei Qing, you'd better pray that you don't regret your decision today.

At this time, Wei Qing, who had no idea that she and her family had been drawn into a dangerous vortex, was watching Dai Shiya leave the teahouse. She looked at Dai Shiya's back, with a flash of worry in her eyes, but it was soon replaced by determination.

"Beep, beep…"

The phone vibrated. Wei Qing looked at the name flashing on the screen, feeling a little uneasy. "Hello?"

"Miss Wei, let's talk about your family..." Wei Qing's fingers tightened around the phone, and her face turned pale. On the other end of the phone, Zhao Lei's voice was low and cold, like a poisonous snake spitting out its tongue, which made her shudder.

"I know you've been getting close to Dai Shiya recently, but I advise you to give up on this idea as soon as possible." Zhao Lei said arrogantly, with an unquestionable threat, "You should know that what I can give you, I can also easily destroy, including your family."

He chuckled, with a hint of cruelty in his tone, "I'll give you a day to think about it. By this time tomorrow, I want to hear that you're on my side, otherwise..."

The call was hung up, and Wei Qing fell weakly into a chair. The phone slipped from her palm to the ground with a dull sound. Fear surged into her heart like a tide, almost drowning her. Her parents' kind faces and her brother's innocent smile appeared in her mind. Her heart seemed to be tightly grasped by an invisible hand, making her breathless.

She knew the danger of seeking the skin of a tiger, but now, did she have any choice? On one side was the trust of her friends, and on the other was the safety of her family. For the first time, she felt so powerless and desperate.

In the next few days, Wei Qing seemed to have become a different person. Her cheerful smile disappeared, replaced by lingering anxiety and uneasiness. She began to avoid Dai Shiya intentionally or unintentionally, not answering her calls, not replying her messages, and even making excuses to avoid the time they had agreed to meet.

Dai Shiya was very aware of Wei Qing's abnormality and tried to find her to clarify things several times, but was always evaded by Wei Qing with vague answers. She was confused, but she couldn't force it, so she could only hide her worries in her heart.

That day, Dai Shiya asked Wei Qing to meet at the coffee shop they often went to. Wei Qing hesitated for a long time, but still went to the appointment.

"What's wrong with you recently? Are you worried about something?" Dai Shiya asked with concern, "Is there anything I can help you with?"

Wei Qing forced a smile and said, "Nothing, I've just been too busy with work lately and I'm a little tired."

"Really?" Dai Shiya obviously didn't believe her words, and her eyes were locked tightly on hers. "Is there anything we can't talk about between us?"

Wei Qing's heart trembled suddenly. She wanted to confess everything, but she was afraid to drag Dai Shiya into this dangerous vortex. Silence spread between the two of them, and the aroma of coffee could not dispel the depressing atmosphere.

"Shiya, I..." Wei Qing took a deep breath and was about to speak, but was interrupted by a rapid ring of her cell phone. The caller ID showed that it was Zhao Lei.

Wei Qing's face turned even paler in an instant. She picked up the phone in a panic, but didn't dare to answer it. The piercing ringtone echoed in the quiet coffee shop, like a death warrant, striking at her nerves.

Dai Shiya looked at Wei Qing's reaction, and the feeling of uneasiness in her heart became stronger. She reached out and held Wei Qing's shaking hand, looking at her firmly: "Don't be afraid, no matter what happens, I will face it with you."

Wei Qing's eyes turned red, tears welled up in them. She knew she couldn't hide it any longer, so she trembled as she pressed the answer button and turned on the speakerphone.

"Wei Qing, what have you considered?" Zhao Lei's cold voice came from the phone.

Wei Qing bit her lips tightly, not knowing how to answer. Dai Shiya frowned and spoke before Wei Qing could: "Who are you? Why are you threatening Wei Qing?"

"Humph, you are Dai Shiya, right?" Zhao Lei sneered, "I advise you to stay away from Wei Qing, otherwise you will bear the consequences."

"What exactly do you want to do?" Dai Shiya asked back fearlessly.

"It's very simple. As long as Wei Qing stands on my side, I can guarantee the safety of her and her family. If she doesn't know what's good for her, don't blame me for being rude." Zhao Lei's tone was full of threats.

Dai Shiya was silent for a moment, then slowly said: "Do you think you can succeed by using this method? We will not give in."

"Haha, you're such a stubborn person." Zhao Lei laughed. "Then we'll wait and see how long you can hold out."

After saying that, he hung up the phone.

Wei Qing's face turned pale as paper, and she couldn't hold back her tears. Dai Shiya hugged her tightly and comforted her softly, "Don't be afraid, we will definitely find a way to solve it."

Dai Shiya began to analyze the situation calmly. She knew that Zhao Lei would not give up and she had to come up with a plan as soon as possible. She decided to start by investigating Zhao Lei's background to see what his purpose was.

After some investigation, Dai Shiya discovered that Zhao Lei was sent by a rival of the Dai family, whose purpose was to destroy the internal unity of the Dai family and thus weaken the strength of the Dai family. And Wei Qing was just a pawn in his hand.

Dai Shiya realized that in order to solve this problem, Wei Qing must be freed from Zhao Lei's control, and at the same time, the Dai family must unite to fight against foreign enemies together.

She found the elders of the Dai family and told them the whole story. After hearing what happened, the elders were shocked and angry. They decided to support Dai Shiya and protect Wei Qing and her family together.

With the support of the Dai family, Dai Shiya and Wei Qing devised a plan to lure Zhao Lei into the trap and then expose his conspiracy in one fell swoop.

Wei Qing followed the plan and called Zhao Lei to express her willingness to stand by him. Zhao Lei was so proud of himself that he thought his plan had succeeded. He asked Wei Qing to meet him in a remote place and was ready to give her the next instructions.

However, he never expected that Dai Shiya had already laid a trap there. When Zhao Lei appeared, Dai Shiya and the people of the Dai family rushed out and surrounded him.

Zhao Lei panicked and tried to escape, but it was too late. He was subdued by the Dai family and handed over to the police.

After this incident, Wei Qing and Dai Shiya's friendship deepened. They also understood that in this complex world of wealthy families, only unity can overcome difficulties.

Dai Shiya also won the recognition and support of more people in the Dai family in this struggle. She knows that she still has a long way to go in the Dai family, but she is confident that she can move towards success step by step with her wisdom and courage.

Chapter 9: "My Heart Is Uneasy When My Friend Is in Danger"

In the quiet tea room, the aroma of tea wafted in the air. Dai Shiya took a sip of tea, but the chill in her heart could not be dispelled. Across from her, Wei Qing listened attentively, tapping the table with her slender fingers.

"So, what are you going to do?" Wei Qing put down the teacup and looked at Dai Shiya with burning eyes.

"Although Dai Qiang suffered a setback this time, he will definitely not give up." Dai Shiya frowned slightly, "I must win over more allies as soon as possible to gain a firm foothold in the Dai family."

Wei Qing's face turned even paler in an instant. She picked up the phone in a panic, but didn't dare to answer it. The piercing ringtone echoed in the quiet coffee shop, like a death warrant, striking at her nerves.

Dai Shiya looked at Wei Qing's reaction, and the feeling of uneasiness in her heart became stronger. "Take it." Her tone was calm, but with unquestionable firmness.

Wei Qing hesitated for a moment, but finally pressed the answer button, but the voice was so low that it was almost inaudible. "Hello..."

Dai Shiya did not deliberately listen to the voice on the other end of the phone, but she keenly noticed that after Wei Qing heard the other party speak, her shoulders obviously shrank, as if she was under tremendous pressure.

"I understand." Wei Qing's voice trembled, as if she was suppressing a huge fear, "I will do as you say..."

After a brief conversation, Wei Qing hung up the phone and put the phone back on the table feebly. Her face was pale and her eyes were empty, like a puppet that had lost its soul.

"What happened?" Dai Shiya could no longer remain silent. She reached out and held Wei Qing's cold hand, and asked anxiously, "Tell me, who is threatening you?"

Wei Qing bit her lip and wanted to say something, but was afraid that what she blurted out would put Dai Shiya in danger.

"If you keep it from me like this, I can't help you at all." Dai Shiya's eyes were firm, and her tone was unquestionable and resolute, "Tell me the truth, and we will face it together."

Wei Qing couldn't hold back her tears and burst out. She choked but still refused to say a word. Seeing this, Dai Shiya stopped asking questions and just patted her back gently, giving her silent comfort.

However, Dai Shiya already had some guesses in her mind. She knew Wei Qing very well, and she would never behave so abnormally if she had not encountered great difficulties. The only people who could make Wei Qing so scared that she would even sacrifice her friendship to keep it a secret were probably her family.

"Is someone threatening you with your family?" Dai Shiya's voice was soft, but it was like a bolt of lightning, striking the softest part of Wei Qing's heart.

Wei Qing's body trembled violently and she looked up in disbelief. The fear and panic in her eyes revealed the truth she was trying to cover up.

"Who is it?" Dai Shiya held her conscience tightly and said firmly, "Tell me, who is behind this?"

Wei Qing's lips moved, but in the end she said nothing and just shook her head weakly.

Dai Shiya knew that this matter could not be delayed any longer. She had to find out the truth as soon as possible to help Wei Qing escape from danger. She took out her cell phone and dialed a number, saying in a cold tone, "Help me find someone..."

The response from the other end of the phone made Dai Shiya's face even more solemn.

"I see." She hung up the phone, a cold light flashing in her eyes, "It seems that someone has to pay the price for his stupidity."

She stood up and looked at Wei Qing who was still immersed in fear, and said firmly, "Don't worry, I will handle it all." After that, she turned and left, leaving only a resolute back. The bitter aroma of coffee filled the air, but it could not dispel the bitterness that surged in Wei Qing's heart. Dai Shiya's resolute back hurt her deeply. She wanted to call her, tell her everything, and seek her help. However, the cold voice on the phone and the threats about the safety of her family were like an invisible hand, strangling her throat tightly, making her unable to make a sound.

"Shiya, I'm sorry..." Wei Qing leaned back in her chair weakly, tears blurring her vision. She knew that Dai Shiya must have misunderstood her at this moment, but she had no choice.

Dai Shiya walked out of the coffee shop, the biting cold wind could not blow away the anger in her heart. Who dared to threaten Wei Qing so despicably? The phone she dialed had already told her the answer - Zhao Lei, the rich kid who had always regarded Wei Qing as a competitor.

"Zhao Lei, you'd better pray that Wei Qing and her family are safe, otherwise..." Dai Shiya's voice was icy cold, like a judgment from hell, "I will make you pay a thousand times the price!"

After hanging up the phone, Dai Shiya's eyes flashed with ruthlessness. She would never allow anyone to hurt the people she cared about, even if it cost her anything!

In the following days, Dai Shiya pretended that nothing had happened, but secretly used all her strength to investigate Zhao Lei, trying to find evidence that he threatened Wei Qing. Wei Qing seemed to have changed into a different person, silent and worried. She deliberately avoided Dai Shiya, and seemed uneasy and hesitant every time they met.

"Wei Qing, what's wrong with you?" Dai Shiya finally couldn't help asking, "What are you hiding?"

Wei Qing bit her lip, her eyes full of struggle. She didn't dare to tell Dai Shiya the truth, for fear of involving her, but she was more afraid of losing her only friend.

"I..." Wei Qing took a deep breath, as if she had made a huge decision, "I can't get too close to you, we... it's better to keep our distance."

"Why?" Dai Shiya looked at her in disbelief, "We are friends!"

"I'm sorry, Shiya, I..." Wei Qing turned her head away, not daring to look into Dai Shiya's eyes, "I don't want to implicate you."

"You implicated me?" Dai Shiya was even more confused. "What happened? Tell me, I can help you!"

Wei Qing's cell phone suddenly rang. She answered the call as if she had grasped a life-saving straw, and her face turned pale in an instant.

"I understand. I will do as you say..." After hanging up the phone, Wei Qing seemed to have lost all her strength and fell weakly into the chair.

"Wei Qing!" Dai Shiya held her hand anxiously, "Who is it? Tell me, I..."

"Don't ask anymore!" Wei Qing shook her hand away, her eyes filled with fear and despair, "I beg you, don't ask anymore!"

Dai Shiya was stunned. She had never seen Wei Qing behave so out of control.

"Shiya, please go," Wei Qing's voice trembled, "From now on... we don't want to meet again."

"Wei Qing, you..."

"I don't want to see you again!" Wei Qing suddenly yelled hysterically, "Get out of here!"

Dai Shiya's heart felt like it was being cut by a knife. She didn't understand why things between them had turned out like this in just a few days?
