"Lu Yunyi".

From now on, Lu Yunzhang stopped calling him Yunyi and started calling him by his full name.

Lu Yunyi looked at him and said seriously, "I know the old man gave that thing to you, and I won't argue with you anymore. My only request is to divide the family property."

The family must separate; there is no time to lose.

If he hadn't seen Wen Shiyu at the hospital today, perhaps he would have stuck to his previous idea and, no matter the cost, would have taken back what Lu Yunzhang had.

But now... hehe.

Even if you're alive to take it, you have to be alive to spend it.

The return of my fourth aunt means that my fourth uncle has also returned.

Thinking of what his father had told him about his fourth uncle, Lu Yunyi shuddered. No, he couldn't get involved with those things; if he did, he'd be finished.

Fourth Uncle will not let them get away with this.

Fortunately, Lu Yunzhang had been on guard against him recently and hadn't let him succeed, otherwise he would have regretted it to the core.

His father once said that the day his fourth uncle returned would be the day the Lu family would suffer misfortune.

At this point, his only request was to separate from the family and cut ties with Old Master Lu as soon as possible, otherwise he wouldn't even know how he died.

and......

Lu Yunyi thought of Lin Xiaoxiao, whom he had seen standing next to Wen Shiyu at the hospital, and a guess flashed through his mind.

Could it be that Lin Xiaoxiao's biological parents are her fourth uncle and aunt?

So that means those two children didn't die back then.

His father said that it was his sixth uncle who disposed of the two children's bodies, so it seems...

Lu Yunyi's eyes flickered, and an idea suddenly came to him.

"Yunyi, let's talk about this later. The old man is about to be driven crazy by you." Lu Hua pretended to advise him, putting on an act of being considerate of the old man.

In reality, they secretly wished for the family to separate.

The old man favored the second branch of the family, especially his son Yunzhang. He had already given all the good things to Yunzhang, so the Lu family only got what they could get.

It would be better to just divide it up, so that the second wife can enjoy all the resources held by the old man.

Lu Yunyi didn't speak, stubbornly staring at Old Master Lu.

Old Master Lu struggled to sit up in bed, pushed away Lu Hua's outstretched hand that was about to help him, and instead grabbed Lu Yunzhang, but his eyes were fixed on Lu Yunyi, dark and unfocused, as if he were thinking about something.

"What if I disagree?"

Lu Yunyi smiled slightly, "Then let's break it off..."

"Lu Yunyi!" Lu Yunzhang spoke in a deep voice, as if reminding him, or perhaps warning him.

Lu Yunyi didn't even look at him, and said clearly and distinctly, "Sever ties."

"Bang!"

Lu Yunzhang punched Lu Yunyi directly, causing Lu Yunyi's face to turn to the side, with a trace of blood spilling from the corner of his mouth. He chuckled and raised his hand to wipe it away.

His voice was indifferent. "How impressive, Young Master Lu."

Lu Yunzhang's eyes were filled with a thousand emotions, including regret and helplessness, but they were quickly replaced by anger. "No matter what, you can't upset Grandpa. He's not in good health."

He didn't understand why Lu Yunyi was in such a hurry.

Even if they want to separate the family, they should give the old man some time to consider it.

With such relentless pressure, Lu Yunzhang had long wanted to punch him.

"Yunzhang!" Old Master Lu's expression changed, and he reached out to pull Lu Yunzhang, signaling him not to act impulsively.

Lu Yunyi knew he was being too hasty, but he had no choice but to be anxious. He couldn't let the Lu family implicate his own family. Even though his parents were also at fault for what happened back then, they had suffered a lot in the Northwest over the past twenty years.

Twenty years of repentance is enough.

Furthermore, they will remain in the Northwest and never return to Beijing, even until their death.

He was unwilling to accept it, even though the real culprits were his eldest, second, and third uncles, as well as the unseen mastermind, Old Master Lu.

The culprits live a comfortable life in Beijing, while they have to endure hardship in the northwest, exposed to the elements.

On what grounds?

They will be punished and get their comeuppance, Lu Yunyi thought to himself with schadenfreude.

"Lu Yunzhang, even if you beat me, I'll still say it: we must separate the family, we must separate the family now." He was somewhat impatient.

"We can't divide it." Old Master Lu coughed twice, clutching his chest. "Yunyi, is it only when Grandpa dies that you'll be satisfied?"

"Dad." Lu Hua's expression changed.

"Grandpa, don't say that," Lu Yunzhang comforted him.

But Old Master Lu stared intently at Lu Yunyi, hoping to hear him say that the family would not separate.

Lu Yunyi calmly shifted his gaze. "Grandpa, you don't need to force me. I've never received a single favor from you since I was a child. There's no such thing as grandparent-grandchild relationship between us. In my heart, only my parents are my family. You are Lu Yunzhang and Lu Xue'er's grandfather, not Yunchen's or my grandfather's."

He went to the Northwest with his parents when he was three years old, while Yun Chen was born in the Northwest.

In their twenty years of life, they only returned to Beijing three times, and were kicked out after the New Year. What kind of grandparent-grandchild relationship was that? It was all bullshit.

Yun Chen graduated from high school at the age of eighteen. The people in charge of sending him to the countryside asked him to go to the countryside. His seventh uncle and aunt only had this one son, so they were naturally reluctant to let him go. They called their grandfather in Beijing and asked him to help them.

What did the old man say?

He said that Lu Yunzhang was at a crucial juncture in his promotion, and it was inconvenient for him to interfere, for fear of affecting Lu Yunzhang.

Later, it took Uncle Qi and Aunt Qi spending all their wealth to buy Yunchen a job.

In the old man's heart, there was only one grandson, Lu Yunzhang, and one granddaughter, Lu Xue'er.

Lu Yunyi glanced at the old man who seemed to be struggling to breathe, his eyes filled with deep sarcasm. Seeing his cold expression and lack of pity, the old man was enraged and pointed at him, cursing, "You ungrateful wretch, just like your sixth uncle."

Lu Yunyi said expressionlessly, "Grandpa, I already said that splitting up the family is no different from forgetting our roots. Just tell me when to split up. I came here with a mission."
