Yu Zihan and Yu Zeren stared at each other, their eyes wide open, the air frozen. Yu Zihan thought the person before her must be her uncle. She had seen him in photos, and his face, resembling her mother's, was unmistakable. Yu Zeren, on the other hand, wondered, "Is this girl really my niece?"
Yu Zihan knew that the most important thing that proved her identity was the box, and since it truly belonged to the Yu family, it was only natural that she should return it to them. If she ever saw her grandparents again, she would return this hot potato to them. Even if there were countless treasures here, they did not belong to her. The best policy was to return the jade intact.
As for my arrival at the Yu family, it would be best if they acknowledged me. If they didn't, I wouldn't force them. After all, the Yu family was my mother's family, so the decision was up to her.
In this short period of time, Yu Zihan had already thought of his own escape route. At the very least, he wanted the Yu family to help him get to the mainland safely.
"First, follow me back to the Yu family and meet my parents, and then we can make plans." Yu Zeren broke the silence. His voice was deep and magnetic, making it impossible to refuse. Yu Zihan nodded. She had no choice but to follow this strange yet friendly man to meet the elders of the Yu family.
The two sat in the car, neither of them speaking. The atmosphere was silent. Yu Zihan looked out the window, and a luxurious villa complex appeared before her. The car drove for an hour before finally stopping in front of a vast, castle-like villa. The driver pulled out the remote control, and the villa's gate slowly opened. The car slowly drove towards the villa's courtyard.
Yu Zihan's heartbeat quickened. Although she hadn't expected anything, the scene still felt like meeting the parents. Moreover, she had no idea what awaited her. She clenched her fists tightly, trying to calm herself. The car stopped at the entrance of the villa. Yu Zeren got out first and opened the door for Yu Zihan. She took a deep breath, then got out and followed Yu Zeren into the villa.
The villa's lobby was spacious, resplendent, and magnificent. Yu Zihan followed Yu Zeren inside without looking away. Yu Zeren led her to the living room, where she saw an elderly couple sitting on the sofa. Although their hair was already gray, they looked quite elegant.
When the two saw the girl behind Yu Zeren, they didn't pay much attention at first, but when they looked at Yu Zihan's appearance carefully, they jumped up from the sofa like springs.
"You, this is..." The two of them looked at Yu Zeren and then at Yu Zihan incoherently.
Yu Zeren understood their feelings very well. They had always felt deeply guilty for not being able to bring their little sister out.
When you first see Yu Zihan, you can't help but think of Yu Meijuan. After all, Yu Zihan looks very similar to her mother.
"This is Yu Zihan. She said she's my younger sister's daughter. So I brought her here," Yu Zeren said honestly. As for confirming Yu Zihan's identity, if her story was true, they could simply go to the Imperial Capital. Travel between Hong Kong and the mainland was now normal, though the paperwork was still quite complicated. They had originally planned to travel to the Imperial Capital in the near future to search for my younger sister.
Upon hearing Yu Zeren's words, the couple both walked over to Yu Zihan, one holding her arm. They looked her over with piercing eyes. "You truly are our grandson! You look a lot like me, and your mouth is just like my Meijuan's," Yu's mother muttered. Yu Zihan felt somewhat embarrassed by the two elders' scrutiny. She didn't know what to say, so she just lowered her head.
"Mom and Dad, please be patient. Let's wait until the identity is confirmed." Yu Zeren saw that his parents looked as if they had confirmed Yu Zihan's identity right away. He was very rational and thought that they should be cautious. Otherwise, if it was a misunderstanding, it would not be good for both parties. Yu's mother looked at Yu Zeren with dissatisfaction, then looked at Yu Zihan, and her tears flowed down. "What is there to be sure of? How can I not recognize my granddaughter? Child, don't listen to him, you are my granddaughter." Yu's mother hugged Yu Zihan. Yu Zihan was startled by this sudden hug. She didn't know how to react. She could only stand there and let Yu's mother hold her tightly.
"Okay, okay, sit down first." Yu's father said. Yu's mother let go of Yu Zihan, then took her hand and sat on the sofa. Yu Zeren also sat down. He looked at Yu Zihan and said, "Zihan, tell us about your story."
Yu Zihan finally felt relieved when she sat on the sofa. Her grandparents were so welcoming. Even if Yu Zeren didn't bring it up, Yu Zihan would have told them about her and her mother's experiences. She wanted to show them what kind of heartless people they had chosen.
"Yu Yanming and his family were very kind to my mother at first, but when the movement started, his son and daughter tried to get the Yu family heirloom from my mother, so they implicated my mother, sent her to the countryside, and caused a series of disasters that nearly killed her.
Although my mother did not die under their persecution, she lost her memory. In order to save me in her belly and her own life, she married the team leader at that time. However, she didn't know that the team leader was also in cahoots with the Yu brothers and sisters. He and their family tortured my mother and me. My mother lived in fear for our safety.
By the time the movement was over, my mother and I had reported the bad guy and escaped the village. My mother's memory returned, and we found my father, Pei Xiao. With his help, we returned to the imperial capital. We thought we would live a peaceful life, but Yu Yanming's son was obsessed with the box and persecuted us in every way.
A few days ago, they held a family dinner to celebrate their father's death. The three of us went to the dinner, and he drugged us all and smuggled me here. I overheard there was a gambling stone transaction here, so I took the opportunity to escape. I didn't expect that I would be so lucky to meet my uncle.
"Good child, you have suffered. My daughter has suffered a lot." Yu's mother burst into tears after hearing Yu Zihan's narration.
"Hmph, this Yu Yanming, I thought he was a good person. I left all my wealth to him, and my only request was that he would treat my daughter well. I didn't expect that they would treat my daughter like this." Old Master Yu was so angry that he blew his beard and glared.
