"The reason I go on so many adventures is partly because it's a personal hobby, and partly because I want to find ways to help my sister."

Jack recounted his past hardships and efforts in a very calm tone, and Wu Yu wisely refrained from interrupting him.

After Jack finally stopped, Wu Yu finally spoke up, voicing his doubts: "Why did you tell me so much? Isn't this your private matter?"

“Since we’ll be living together from now on, if possible, I hope you’ll keep an eye on my sister. She’s very fragile; she’s easily hurt, both physically and emotionally,” Jack said in a pleading tone.

Wu Yu patted his chest and assured him, "Don't worry, who would have the heart to hurt such a lovely girl?"

“Yes, I believe you.” Jack nodded in satisfaction.

"By the way, aren't you really sad about your father's passing?" Wu Yu asked tentatively.

“Because of Violet’s existence, my relationship with him has never been very good, but I still respect him very much. He has fulfilled his responsibilities as a father. However, I was mentally prepared for his departure two years ago. Although there is still a sadness in my heart, this is not the time to be controlled by emotions, because there is something more important waiting for me to deal with,” Jack said firmly.

"What's up?"

“My uncle Benson, our family has always been small. Now, besides my sister and me, he is the only direct bloodline left. He is my father’s brother. After my father’s death, he was able to take over the family business. I should be grateful to him, but I can’t help but suspect that he is after my father’s inheritance.” Jack analyzed carefully.

"Oh? We've reached the much-anticipated inheritance dispute again. I didn't expect you to be a novice like Jack," Wu Yu teased from the side.

“His main goal is probably the right to inherit the title. Although I’m not interested in those things, they are essential to protecting Violet, so I absolutely cannot let go.” Jack said in an unquestionable tone, then looked at Wu Yu, “If he really wants to make a move, almost half a year should be enough time for him to prepare. Please help me, Wu Yu.”

Wu Yu laughed. He felt that Jack was sometimes a little too serious. He said in a casual tone, "What are you thinking? We're sworn brothers. If I don't help you, who else can I help?"

"Thank you," Jack said formally, even though Wu Yu had said that.

"So what do you plan to have me do?"

"Let's talk about it after I see my uncle at dinner. I need to see his attitude first," Jack said calmly.

···

Finally, it was dinner time, and Wu Yu's appetite was whetted by the sight of the delicious dishes laid out on the table.

For the past month, he's been eating hard, dry rations every day, and his mouth is practically tasteless.

It has to be said that Jack really has no ambition in life. He is very rich, but his only criterion for food is whether it can fill his stomach.

If Wu Yu weren't broke, he would have wanted to buy a steak and stuff it into his mouth several times while they were at the restaurant, and then ask him which of the two things tasted better.

After wandering in this other world for so long, I can finally satisfy my cravings today.

But Wu Yu wasn't in a hurry. His past standard of living hadn't reached the point where he needed to pay attention to dining etiquette. However, he knew that noble families often had a lot of rules, so he sat quietly in his seat, waiting for others to eat first before he started.

Jack went to pick up his sister himself, and now he has just arrived at the dining table in his wheelchair.

Jack glanced around, frowned, and said coldly, "Benson Russell, that's the head of the family's seat. What right do you have to sit there?"

Damn it, didn't we agree to observe the situation first? Why are we going head-to-head right off the bat? At least let me take a couple of bites first.

Wu Yu was completely stunned. He never expected Jack to suddenly launch an attack without even informing his friend. He sat blankly in his chair, not knowing what to do.
