Although Lu Yuan's voice was not loud, it was extremely penetrating.
Upon hearing Lu Yuan's voice, the thugs frowned slightly and turned to look.
A tall young man stood out in stark contrast to the emaciated people around him.
The other person looked Lu Yuan up and down, then spat out the toothpick from the corner of their mouth.
"Good heavens, you have reinforcements? I advise you not to meddle in other people's business."
Lu Yuan glanced at them and sneered, "Hmph, this is my family matter, not some trivial matter. You lot, kneel down on the ground right now. Otherwise, don't blame me for showing no mercy!"
Upon hearing Lu Yuan's arrogance, the other party couldn't help but shout, "Damn it! How dare you talk to me like that? Interrupt him! I'll take responsibility if you kill him!"
The thugs immediately abandoned Xiaoshan's father and Lu's father, who were lying on the ground, and then rushed towards Lu Yuan with their sticks.
A dozen people ganged up on Lu Yuan, and Anna and Zhou Tong, who were standing by, naturally couldn't stand idly by.
Zhou Tong roared, "I'll fucking see who dares to do this! I'll kill you all today!"
Then, Zhou Tong took out a pistol from his pocket and pointed it at the thug in the distance: "Get the hell out of here."
When the thugs saw that Zhou Tong had even drawn his gun and was wearing a military uniform, they knew that he was someone they couldn't afford to mess with.
So he could only shrug sheepishly: "Fine, I admit defeat today. You've got connections, you're so powerful. But next time, let's see how you run away."
After saying that, he left with his underlings.
At this moment, Xiaoshan's father, who was lying on the ground, felt a sharp pain in his shoulder, as if he could no longer lift his shoulder.
That iron rod had shattered his shoulder blade, and he felt so much pain that he was about to faint.
At this moment, Lu's father couldn't care less about anything else. He carried him on his back and started to walk upstairs.
Just as he was about to lift Xiaoshan's father up, a large hand suddenly stopped him.
"Dad, let me do it!"
Mr. Lu politely replied, "Oh, no need!"
He froze as soon as he finished speaking.
Mr. Lu turned his head slightly in disbelief to look at Lu Yuan standing behind him, then froze on the spot as if struck by lightning.
He opened his mouth, but didn't know what to say.
Then Lu Yuan called out "Dad" again.
In that instant, Lu's father felt tears streaming down his face. After years of fruitless searching for his son, he had long lost hope. He never expected that he would see Lu Yuan come back alive at this moment.
In that instant, he pulled Lu Yuan into his arms and burst into tears.
Xiao Shan's father turned around in shock to look at Lu Yuan, tears streaming down his face. He gently patted Lu Yuan's shoulder and, enduring the pain, said, "You're finally back, my son-in-law!"
Lu Yuan nodded, glanced at Xiao Shan's father's shoulder and knew that without the golden fruit, his entire arm would probably be ruined. So he quickly took out a golden fruit and handed it over.
"Dad, eat up!"
Xiao Shan's father took the fruit and stuffed it into his mouth while crying.
They were living a life worse than death during this period. Although they had found formal jobs, they were still not happy.
To find a good job in Midtown, besides talent, you have to put in a lot of effort, and the money you earn is still very little, making it almost impossible to support your family.
Especially now, not only the two of them work, but Xiaoshan's mother, Lu's mother, and grandparents also have to go out to work.
Seeing Lu Yuan return now, I feel as if I'm suddenly filled with confidence again.
So, the group of people went up to the third floor together.
The door to the room on the third floor was tightly closed. Mr. Lu gently knocked on the door.
After a while, a peephole was opened in the door, and the person inside glanced at it and immediately opened the door.
After opening the door, Lu's mother saw Lu's father and Xiaoshan's father standing outside and hurriedly welcomed them in: "What happened? Those damned thugs attacked again?"
What's wrong with Lao Wei? I'll go get the first-aid kit right now! We should still have some antibiotics left over from last time, let's replenish them quickly!
However, before she could finish speaking, she suddenly looked up and saw a familiar face. The face she had been thinking about for so long had suddenly returned. Lu Ma opened her mouth, and tears instantly fell down her cheeks.
After Lu Yuan hugged his mother again, Xiao Shan's mother, grandparents and other family members rushed out from inside.
The family embraced and wept bitterly, each one too overwhelmed to speak.
Anna, standing to the side, cried countless times.
Zhou Tong's eyes were also red, and he had just secretly wiped away a few tears.
The news of Lu Yang's return immediately gave everyone a sense of security. Lu Yuan frowned after glancing around the room, which was so small it was practically a large dormitory-style room.
There were only a few wooden boards used as a partition in the middle, and no other measures were taken. There was no public toilet, no kitchen, only a storage room of less than two square meters, which contained all their belongings.
Grandpa and Grandma look much older than before, and Grandpa's eyesight is not very good.
He reportedly has glaucoma in one eye, and now he can't see things very clearly.
Grandma got caught in the rain and injured herself, so she can barely move her legs now. She needs someone to help her downstairs every time she goes downstairs, otherwise she can't move at all.
Lu Yuan inquired further and learned that everyone in their group was now working in a factory.
Here they produce all sorts of parts, and to get the job done, they need to work more than thirty hours a day.
What does thirty hours mean? Although the days now consist of two days combined into one, the daytime lasts for twenty-four hours. Working thirty hours means that they have to work continuously, and when they return after a day and night, they can only rest for a short time.
Such high-intensity work is unbearable, not to mention the elderly, even young people cannot withstand it.
After hearing this, Lu Yuan was filled with hatred, only able to blame the Blue Star people's rule for being too tyrannical.
So he took out a golden fruit and gave one to each of his family members. After they ate them, everyone recovered.
Then Lu Yuan took out more food from his dimensional space. He no longer hid his things; he just wanted everyone to know that his dimensional space was still there.
Lu Yuan no longer intends to have everyone continue living in this small house.
He had already made up his mind and asked Zhou Tong if he could buy a private campsite if he wanted to move to a better place.
That place is guarded by the military, and the area inside has been developed by individuals, making it very expensive.
But Lu Yuan didn't care. He had already made up his mind: he would move out immediately and then go find Xiao Shan.
