Chapter 985 - Returning to the Yu Family

After boarding the plane, Chu Liuxiang asked Yuan, ”So, what do you think of this trip?”

”Exhausting…” He sighed.

”Yu Rou… She knows about our relationship.”

”Eh?” Chu Liuxiangʼs eyes widened with surprise.

”Really?”

”Yes, she asked me about it during the night of her birthday, and I had no choice but to tell her the truth.”

”I see… How did she take it?”

”I honestly donʼt know. She seems okay with it, but she doesnʼt seem happy about it either.” Yuan shook his head.

”Thatʼs tough… However, I kind of understand her feelings… I think.” Chu Liuxiang sighed, and she turned to look at Meixiu and asked, ”What do you think?”

”I also donʼt know… All I can say is that itʼs really complicated…” Meixiu also shook her head.

Chu Liuxiang raised her eyebrows since Meixiuʼs words contradicted herself. If she doesnʼt know anything, why would she say itʼs complicated like she knew about it?

However, Chu Liuxiang decided to not ask her about it.

”Anyways, Iʼm surprised the Bai Family allowed you to leave so easily. In fact, I was so sure that theyʼd try to recruit you.”

Yuan smiled and said, ”Well, Iʼm really glad that they didnʼt. It wouldnʼt be easy to refuse them after all theyʼve done for me and Yu Rou.”

The three of them proceeded to talk about their short and chaotic vacation for most of their flight.

Meanwhile, White Lotus notified her father about Yuanʼs departure.

”I see… So heʼs gone… What about your relationship with him?” Bai Mengyao asked.

”Honestly, while I will admit that I was too nervous to approach him, I also think itʼs a little too early for me to propose to him. Although I wasnʼt able to join his family, I think Iʼve made great progress in our relationship. Once I am ready, I will ask him.” White Lotus said.

”Nervous? You? Hahaha!” Bai Mengyao laughed out loud.

”I never thought Iʼd ever hear such words coming from you!”

”Shut up… Iʼm going to hang up now. I have some things that I want to discuss with Yu Rou.”

”All right. Let me know if you need anything.”

”I will.”

A few hours later, Yuanʼs plane landed.

”Can you call your mother and let her know that we will be arriving at the Yu Family soon?” Yuan asked Meixiu.

She nodded and proceeded to call Meifeng on her phone.

”Hello? Yes, we have just landed. We should arrive at the Yu Family soon.”

”No, we can get there by ourselves.”

”I understand. I will let him know.”

After hanging up, Meixiu looked at Yuan and spoke, ”Apparently your parents are furious that you kept them waiting for so long.”

Yuan smiled and said, ”I know theyʼre legally my parents, but letʼs not call them that for my sanityʼs sake.”

”By the way, Lulu, since the Yu Family is only expecting Meixiu and I, and I donʼt want to make things more complicated than it already is, can you wait for us to be done? Theyʼre pretty awful people, so I doubt you would want to meet with them either.”

Chu Liuxiang chuckled, ”Too bad I have already met with your parents. However, I was still from the Chu Family at that time, so they had to be respectful to me. Donʼt worry, I wonʼt interrupt your family reunion. Go on and have fun without me.”

”Thank you.”

They took a taxi to the Yu Family shortly after.

”Itʼs been a while since I have been to this city so I am going to stroll around for a bit. Call me when youʼre done.” Chu Liuxiang said to them before going elsewhere.

Once Chu Liuxiang was gone, Yuan and Meixiu approached the Yu Familyʼs manor.

”How long has it been since I last seen this place? Feels like forever.” Yuan looked at the scenery with a nostalgic expression on his face.

Even though his childhood was horrible, he still had some fond memories of this place.

When they arrived at the front gate, Yuan could see a familiar figure standing inside.

”Itʼs been a while, Miss Meifeng.” Yuan greeted her with a smile.

”Mother.” Meixiu nodded at her.

”Young Master… Your eyes… So itʼs true that youʼve fully recovered…” Meifeng covered her mouth after seeing that Yuanʼs eyes had regained its beautiful color.

Even though she had seen the concert, she still doubted it.

”Whereʼs the couple?” Yuan then asked her.

”Theyʼre currently inside, and itʼs not just them. Their lawyers and even some of the investors are inside, waiting for your arrival.” Meifeng said with a worried frown on her face.

”Wow, what a grand audience that they have prepared for us. I kind of feel bad for making them wait so long now.” Yuan chuckled.

”Young Master, I have to be honest with you. You shouldʼve just remained in hiding. Why did you show yourself so soon?” Meifeng asked him.

”I just figured that itʼs about time I stop hiding and confront my problems.” Yuan casually shrugged.

”Donʼt worry, I am no longer the pushover they once knew. Let us in, Miss Meifeng. I will handle the Yu Family.” Yuan said to her with a confident smile on his face.

Meifeng took a deep breath and released it a moment later.

”All right.” She opened the gates from them and led them inside the Yu Familyʼs territory.

Once inside, Meifeng drove the two of them to the manor that was located about half a mile away.

A few minutes later, when they exited the car, Yuan and Meixiu could suddenly feel many gazes staring at them.

Yuan could see many people watching them from inside the manor. Most of them were servants working there, but a few of them were wearing suits.

After entering the manor, Meifeng led them to the audience room that is usually used for important business meetings.

Upon opening the door, Yuan could see Yu Yong and Tang Lee sitting at the end of a large table, and sitting beside them were a bunch of important-looking people that Yuan vaguely recognized.

Yuan stepped inside the room without any hesitation and with a smile on his handsome face.

”Iʼm home,” he spoke in a calm voice.
