Chapter 1288: 621 Regret Past the Point of No Return, Lu Family of Free State [1 Chapter Update]_2 Chapter 1288: 621 Regret Past the Point of No Return, Lu Family of Free State [1 Chapter Update]_2 Hearing these words, Si Fuqing suddenly looked up.

On the other end of the phone, Yu Tang fell silent for a moment and then suddenly burst into tears, “Uncle Nine, if only you were my dad, then no one would bully me.”

When she was young, the kids her age would say she was unwanted, a loss-making commodity.

She could only strive hard in her studies to prove herself.

Yu Xiheng comforted Yu Tang for a few moments, then turned back to meet Si Fuqing’s gaze.

Seeing her gaze sharper than usual and with a rare hint of aggression,
this aggression also startled him.

He asked in a low voice, “Si Fuqing, what’s wrong?”

Si Fuqing looked at him for a few more seconds and shook her head, “Just an illusion, I haven’t been sleeping well lately.”

Just then, for a moment, she had mistaken Yu Xiheng for Emperor Yin.

The two men looked completely different, and the eras they belonged to were worlds apart, sharing nothing in common.

Yet, what subtly stirred her heart was that both men seemed to possess a strange trait that drew her in.

Compared to Emperor Yin, Yu Xiheng had a bit more humanity.

“Don’t stay in the gaming pod today.” Yu Xiheng lightly flicked her forehead, “Get some good sleep.”

Si Fuqing stretched lazily, “Understood, suitor.”

Yu Xiheng said unhurriedly, “Si Fuqing, I still have good memory.”

“So?”

“So I remember there’s less than a week left.”

Si Fuqing blinked, “Who said that? If you make me angry, the days will just keep increasing.”

Yu Xiheng did not speak but looked at her, his eyes holding a light smile that gradually suffused outward.

Si Fuqing lowered her head, “Eat your food, don’t look at me.”

Ever since he had revealed his feelings, the gaze this man directed at her lost its previous depth and restraint.

Every inch seemed to be tempting her.

This is truly fatal.

“Brother Nine.” Shen Ying appeared silently, “The Yu family just contacted the media and various major families, planning to hold a press conference tomorrow. They didn’t specify the subject, but it’s surely aimed at you.”

“Oh?” Yu Xiheng spoke indifferently, “That’s still not enough.”

Shen Ying smiled, “Brother Nine, the Yu family still thinks you’re good for nothing, it’s baffling how they came to that conclusion.”

Yu Xiheng said while supporting his head, “Then let’s enlighten them.”

Understanding his implication, Shen Ying quietly left.

“The Yu family wants to hold a press conference?” Si Fuqing raised her head, “Brother Nine, do you need my help?”

“Not necessary.” Yu Xiheng half-closed his eyes, “It’s just a trivial matter, you focus on your acting, let me handle this, okay?”

Si Fuqing looked at him for a long moment, then turned her head and muttered, “I really am an incompetent ruler.”

Every time, bewitched by his face.

Meanwhile, in the Western Continent at Etno Academy,
Yu Tang clasped her hands together, looking pitifully, “Sisters, I’ve already written one article, you’re pretty, but you can’t just keep staring at me.”

“Please spare me.”

The two A-level evolved beings, “…”

They silently backed away.

Yu Tang’s eyes brightened, she clenched her fist, “The method Si Fuqing taught really works.”

No wonder even her Uncle Nine got defeated
Yu Tang stretched lazily and opened Weibo.

The top trending search read:
#YuFamilyPressConference#
A press conference at this time?

Yu Tang frowned and clicked in, finding that netizens were just as perplexed as she was.

[The Yu family wants to hold a press conference? What’s the big news?]
[Very curious, I’m squatting it, such wealthy issues are too far from my life, I want to know what they do all day.]
[Insider news, not sure if you guys know, but there’s a weirdo in the Yu family, initially groomed by Old Master Yu as his successor, but later he became disabled. This disabled person, depending on his looks, got on the top socialite list, ungrateful, even though Old Master Yu adored him, he planned to disown him from the Yu family.]
Yu Tang was instantly furious, ready to engage in a 300-round battle with the commenter when a familiar voice sounded from outside.

“Yu Tang! Yu Tang I know you’re in there, I’m your dad, open the door.” Yu Wenhuai was knocking on the door, “Yu Tang, dad didn’t know your grandpa wanted to arrange a political marriage, I came specifically to apologize, don’t be mad, we’re family.”

The two A-level evolved beings exchanged looks, waiting for Yu Tang’s command.

“Dad?” Yu Tang scoffed, “After you married that woman, you and I have nothing to do with each other any longer.”

Less than a week after her mother’s death, even before the end of the seventh day mourning period, Yu Wenhuai had hurriedly married his second wife, bringing along a boy who was just five months younger than her.

Pregnancy due to infidelity.

Yu Tang had never imagined that such disgusting affairs could happen to her.

After the stepmother entered the house, Yu Wenhuai forced her to call her stepmother “mom” and bluntly told her not to think about coveting any of his property, as everything belonged to his son.

She was also expected to always support her brother as she grew up.

For her, she wished death on Yu Wenhuai.

Yu Tang opened the door and said coldly, “Yu Wenhuai, I’m warning you, if you don’t scram, I’ll have someone cripple you!”

“Yu Tang! I’m your father!” Yu Wenhuai was irate, his true face fully revealed, “In the house, obey your husband, I’m not dead yet, you should listen to everything I say!”

“Come back with me to the Yu house!”

He reached out to grab Yu Tang’s arm, but his attempt was intercepted by another hand in mid-air.

A “snap” sound was heard, the sound of breaking bones.

Yu Wenhuai cried out in pain.

Yu Tang was startled, and when she saw Lu Xingheng’s face, she stammered, “You, how are you here?”

Lu Xingheng release his hand, and Yu Wenhuai stumbled backward, falling to the ground.

He lifted his hand and handed his black leather jacket to Yu Tang, “Hold this.”

It’s been so long since I fought, not sure if I’m rusty.
