Yu Cheng felt powerless about the terrible parent-child relationship within his family.
In his view, both sides were at fault.
Neither side was willing to reconcile, and both were determined to kill the other.
“Jian Yu, I know you hate us, but now that Yu Yao is dead, Mom is seriously ill, and Yu Ze’s health isn’t as good as other young people’s, can you please stop holding grudges for the sake of our family?”
Jian Yu put down his cup and looked deeply at Yu Cheng. "Do you know that I was once blind? If the Huo family hadn't brought in an internationally renowned expert for me, I would still be blind now. Back then, I was still recovering from my car accident and couldn't even walk. Did any of you take care of me? Later, I fell into the water and was in danger several times. Did you find anyone to rescue me?"
Yu Cheng's lips tightened more and more, and he didn't utter a single word for a long time.
"You've never treated me like family, so why should I be expected to treat you like family?"
“…” Yu Cheng, “When you were hit by the truck driver and fell into the ravine, we called a rescue team to help you.”
Mentioning this, Jian Yu gave a cold laugh, "He saved one or two games, but Qi Yuexi forced him to give up."
Yu Cheng, "..."
Jian Yu continued, "When I fell into the water a second time, you didn't do anything at all."
Yu Cheng had no idea how to explain it. When these two accidents happened, they all thought Jian Yu was dead.
Surprisingly, they always returned safely.
"What? Now that I hear Yu Yao is gone, she's sick and trying to bring her ashes back to China. It's completely different from when I was here."
Yu Cheng lowered his head guiltily. Hearing that Jian Yu had encountered an accident, his father remained calm, while his mother happily went to a beauty salon for a treatment. Although he was saddened, his feelings were limited.
However, when Yu Yao had her accident, her parents, Yu Ze, and even Yu Yao himself were all very saddened.
They even had trouble sleeping all night.
"You want to mend things with me now simply because you're not as good as me now and want to get something out of me. Yu Zhentian was so angry that he was hospitalized because I kept him away for months. Yu Ting even came to my house to yell at me because her dear father was hospitalized. When I ignored her, she went too far and started shouting at my door with a megaphone. Every single thing you've done shows how you treat yourselves like family."
Yu Cheng explained, "Grandpa is old and he was hospitalized, so everyone was very worried."
"Just because someone is old doesn't mean they can't hold grudges about the past?"
"you......"
"The fortune teller only said that I couldn't live with my parents, so Yu Zhentian sent me to an orphanage and arranged for Cao Xiaomei to mistreat me... The Yu family is so rich, they could have just dumped me in another house and handed me over to a nanny to take care of me; or at the very least, given me to someone else. But he chose the most difficult path for me."
Yu Cheng looked shocked, as if he were hearing this for the first time. "Who told you that?"
"Didn't expect I knew all of this, did you?"
Yu Cheng shook his head, muttering, "Grandpa wouldn't do that, he's not that heartless?"
“You’re family, so naturally you’ll speak well of each other.” Jian Yu was too lazy to continue talking to him. She stood up and called to the servant beside her, “Show them out!”
He turned around and went upstairs.
Yu Cheng was escorted out the gate.
Once he got into the car, his attitude became much colder.
Covering his face with his hands, Yu Cheng sighed deeply. After a long while, he whispered, "Jian Yu actually knows everything. No wonder she refuses to forgive him no matter how many times Grandpa comes to see her, and she doesn't want to let him into the house."
"Ding ding ding----"
The cell phone rang.
Upon seeing the incoming call notification, Yu Cheng had the first thought of hanging up.
But he can't.
Press the connect button.
Yu Ting's anxious voice came through, "How is it? Is Jian Yu willing to help bring back Yu Yao's ashes?"
"Jian Yu is unwilling to help."
"How could she be so heartless? Didn't she see that your grandfather, father, and mother all got sick because of this?"
Yu Cheng clutched his chest, feeling a stuffy sensation inside.
Grandpa, Dad, and Mom all fell ill from grief over Yu Yao's passing.
But it has never been like this because of Jian Yu.
Yu Ting was cursing and swearing on the other end of the phone.
Yu Cheng suddenly felt irritated. "Auntie, when Grandpa sent Jian Yu to the orphanage, did you try to stop him?"
"What?"
Yu Ting was talking so enthusiastically that she didn't react for a moment.
Yu Cheng then repeated what he had said.
Yu Ting paused for a moment, then asked, "Why did you suddenly think of asking this?"
Yu Cheng, "You know why, don't you? Why didn't you try to persuade Grandpa not to send Jian Yu to the orphanage? You could have easily found a kind couple to adopt Jian Yu, why didn't you do that? Why did you have to send him to the orphanage?"
Faced with this question, Yu Ting didn't know how to answer.
“Your grandfather is in charge of our family. As for why he does what he does, I can’t control that, and neither can your grandmother.”
“No…” Yu Cheng shook his head. “There are a thousand ways to give Jian Yu away for adoption, and Grandma is fully capable of doing it. It’s just that none of you are willing to do it.”
Ultimately, it all comes down to him disliking Jian Yu as his nemesis and not wanting to treat her well.
They even believed that sparing her life was an act of mercy.
"Yu Cheng, everyone was panicked at the time and didn't think things through."
"And what about the next ten years or so? Everyone knows how hard the children in the orphanage suffered, yet you still chose to ignore it, didn't you?"
Yu Ting opened her mouth, wanting to explain, but found herself speechless.
I could only rub my temples.
“Jian Yu is a nemesis; keeping him alive will harm your brother and sister-in-law. But I can’t bear to kill him like this. What if your brother blames your father and me when the truth comes out during the winter exams? How about we send him to an orphanage?”
Yu Ting recalled the words her mother had spoken to her that day.
What do you mean by "can't bear it"?
If they really couldn't bear it, they would do what Yu Cheng said and find a good family to adopt Jian Yu.
Ultimately, it's all hypocrisy.
They wanted to get rid of Jian Yu, their nemesis, but didn't want to bear the blame, so they simply threw him into a cannibalistic place.
Yu Ting couldn't tell the truth to outsiders, so she could only continue to defend herself, "Your grandmother donates one million RMB to the welfare home every year. Nobody expected that Cao Xiaomei would embezzle this money."
Unexpected?
What an unexpected statement! Just because he didn't expect it, does Jian Yu have to suffer so much injustice?
Yu Cheng patted his face and cursed himself inwardly, "Your family really has thick skin!"
From that day on, the Yu family seemed to have disappeared from Jian Yu's world.
It never appeared again.
Even their relatives have disappeared without a trace.
Jian Yule's relaxed and carefree attitude.
Two months later, an elegant lady arrived at Jianyu's office.
Her face is somewhat similar to Qi Yuexi's, but her temperament is more dignified.
Jian Yu was stunned for a moment before realizing who she was—Qi Yuezhen.
Qi Yuexi's younger sister.
Upon learning the other person's identity, Jian Yu's thought of standing up vanished instantly.
She sat firmly in her chair, staring intently at Qi Yuezhen. "What is it?"
Qi Yuezhen's lips twitched slightly, seemingly surprised by Jian Yu's cold attitude.
"Leave if there's nothing else to do."
Jian Yu pointed outside the door.
Qi Yuezhen, “…”
Is it because she saw that her face resembled Qi Yuexi that she got angry?
Just then, the assistant brought in coffee and placed it in front of Qi Yuezhen, saying, "Please have some coffee."
The assistant's action broke the awkward silence.
Qi Yuezhen nodded. "Go ahead and get busy! I need to talk to your boss about something."
The assistant assumed they were there to discuss investment, so he didn't dare delay and quickly bowed and left.
"To be honest, this is the first time we've officially met. I'm your aunt, Qi Yuezhen."
Jian Yu silently added in his mind, "To be precise, it's the third time. In my past life, I saw you twice."
Jian Yu only thought these words to himself. From Qi Yuezhen's perspective, Jian Yu was ignoring her. Fortunately, she was mentally prepared and did not care at all, and continued to speak.
"I heard from your uncle yesterday that you recently invested in several short drama productions. I happen to have a few short dramas on my hands, and I'd like to invest in them with you. What do you think?"
Jian Yu blinked. "Are you sure you're not mistaken?"
Qi Yuezhen chuckled, "Of course. I knew you wouldn't believe me, so I prepared the contract."
As he spoke, he took a contract out of his bag and placed it in front of Jian Yu.
"Look. These scripts are all very popular."
He then pulled out a few more scripts.
Jian Yu ignored the things on the table, his eyes fixed on Qi Yuezhen. "Why would you suddenly want to collaborate with me? Our relationship doesn't seem that good."
Qi Yuezhen nodded. "That was true before. However, as long as we work together, our relationship will only get better and better."
Jian Yu put his hands behind his head and leaned back in his chair. "I don't want to cooperate with you. To be precise, I don't want to cooperate with any of Yu's relatives or friends."
Qi Yuezhen showed no sadness at being rejected. "Jian Yu, you started your company to make money, and I'm looking for you to make money too. As long as we can make money, that's all that matters. Besides, blood ties can't be severed."
It's ridiculous to think that a relative you've barely met in two lifetimes is related to you by blood.
Jian Yu didn't want to waste time with a drawn-out conversation, so he went straight to the point, "What do you want from me? Or what do you want me to do?"
Qi Yuezhen: "It's about making money together."
Jian Yu glanced at the contract and script on the table and sneered, "You're not going to leave the money-making opportunities to your own company? Even if you're not going to leave them to your own company, why not leave them to Yu Cheng? You should know that Yu Cheng is the one who needs to make money and develop right now."
With the strength of Qisheng Culture Media, there are plenty of companies that want to cooperate with us!
Why go to such lengths to find her when you need her?
Could it be some kind of trap?
Jian Yu became increasingly suspicious, and his gaze towards Qi Yuezhen became wary.
