Chapter 136: Indecisive
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Yu Hong swept his gaze over his two sons and his daughter and noticed that their expressions were a little distorted. They did not dare to look him in the eye, and he knew that these people were all secretly laughing at his misfortune. He snorted and said, “Yu Lang, you’ve grown wings now and dare to play tricks on me, right?”
Yu Lang did not deny that he had played a trick on him. He said frankly, “Dad, if you want to absolve Yu Wan of her crimes or smooth things over and let her continue to stay in the Yu family, I’ll have to think of a way to appraise your relationship with Yu Wan.”
Only then did Yu Yao realize that Yu Lang was actually probing Yu Hong. She came to a sudden realization and said, “If Dad is biased towards Yu Wan, it means that their relationship is not simple. But if Dad directly points out that you suspect Yu Wan is his illegitimate child, it would instead mean that Dad doesn’t have any guilty conscience.”
That was what Yu Lang and Yu Heng were thinking. It was just that they hadn’t expected Yu Yao to only react now. Not only was her reaction so slow, but she actually said it out loud too.
Yu Hong looked at Yu Yao and sighed too. “You brats are all scheming against me. If you were half as innocent as Yaoyao, you wouldn’t be so annoying.”
Yu Yao was stunned for a moment before she reacted. Yu Hong was saying that she was slow. She was a little annoyed, but she was also embarrassed to throw a tantrum at Yu Hong. After all, in Yu Yao’s heart, she was not too familiar with Yu Hong.
Yu Hong did not talk with them for long. He wanted to accompany Chen Lin and had his own things to do.
When Yu Yao was with Yu Heng and Yu Lang, she asked all the questions in her heart, “What on earth is going on? Why would you suspect Yu Wan’s relationship with Dad? Could it be in the previous lifetime…”
Neither Yu Lang nor Yu Heng seemed to want to tell Yu Yao too much about their previous lives. Yu Lang said perfunctorily, “Yaoyao, I still have work. If you have any questions, look for your second brother, okay?”
With that, Yu Lang slipped away openly.
Yu Yao had never seen Yu Lang act so shamelessly. She stared at Yu Lang’s back with her mouth agape and was speechless for a long time.
Yu Heng’s voice was filled with amusement. “Yaoyao, don’t mind Eldest Brother’s attitude. He’s just embarrassed.”
Yu Yao’s curiosity was immediately piqued. She looked at Yu Heng with a burning gaze. “Second Brother, tell me quickly what’s going on?”
Yu Heng pulled Yu Yao over and sat down at a small round table in the garden. He poured her a cup of tea, and built up the atmosphere. He put on an attitude of telling a story.
Yu Yao looked at Yu Heng expectantly, hoping to hear more interesting stories from him.
Yu Heng smiled and said, “Brother has suffered because of this before. In his previous life, he had similarly found out about Yu Wan’s biological mother and even got someone to bring her in front of him. He personally heard the other party say that Yu Wan was Father’s illegitimate daughter. After that, he went to find Father in a fit of anger. At that time, Father did not explain and taught him a lesson afterwards. However, it was precisely because Father did not explain that this matter had been hidden in Brother’s heart. He only let go of this worry when he heard Father personally deny his relationship with Yu Wan.”
Yu Yao thought that it would be a story filled with ups and downs. Unexpectedly, it was just this. She immediately became resentful and unhappy. “This is it? It’s not interesting at all.”
Yu Heng smiled. “Although it’s not considered interesting, for Eldest Brother, this experience is already embarrassing enough.”
Yu Yao recalled how Yu Lang had fled and couldn’t help but laugh.
She laughed for a while before sighing. “Our family is really unlucky to have met Yu Wan.”
Yu Heng’s expression gradually darkened. “Dad should still investigate Yu Wan carefully before deciding what to do with her. So, he’ll probably let this matter cool for a couple of days. If you see Yu Wan at home, don’t be angry.”
Yu Yao thought for a moment and said helplessly and wearily, “You wealthy families are really troublesome.. If it were up to me, I would have beaten her up and thrown her out long ago. How can you be so indecisive?”
