Mr. Yi saw that Dugu Xiong was in a dilemma, so he told him the truth: "You should also know about the museum's auction. All my funds were used there, and now I have nothing left."
Dugu Xiong's expression was obviously a little dark. He had originally placed all his hopes on Mr. Yi, but he didn't expect that he would be rejected so directly.
"Is there really nothing left?" He wanted to struggle again.
Mr. Yi felt that Dugu Xiong was getting too far. He crossed his hands on the table and said, "Now that we've spoken frankly, let's be frank."
He took a deep breath and continued, "I was already giving you face when I promised you to return to the Dugu family last time, but aren't you being a little too pushy now?"
But in Dugu Xiong's opinion, what he said was perfectly normal, and since Mr. Yi was unwilling, there was nothing he could do.
Dugu Xiong raised his eyes slightly and said, "To be honest, I've been staying in the hospital for the past few days for review. I'm afraid I won't live long."
As soon as he said this, Mr. Yi paused what he was doing. He certainly had not thought that such a day would happen. It was too sudden.
But the expression on his face didn't change at all: "What's the point of saying these things to me?"
Dugu Xiong believed that no matter what, they were all family, and if there was anything to discuss, they should sit down and have a good discussion like they were doing now: "Come home when you have time."
"I've been back once last time, and that's not my home." Mr. Yi responded with a straight face.
"You are not a child anymore, you can make your own judgments, right?" Dugu Xiong said with some earnestness in his tone.
Since he didn't want to, I didn't force him: "What about your engagement? Do you have to keep this a secret from father too?"
Even if Mr. Yi does not recognize that family, he must admit that his biological father is in it.
"That's enough. I have something else to do. There's no need to talk about this anymore." Mr. Yi stood up and left.
Dugu Xiong stood behind him, looking at Mr. Yi's figure, feeling a little uneasy.
Zhang Yun was waiting for Mr. Yi in the car. When she saw Mr. Yi get in the car, she smiled like a silly child.
Somehow, Mr. Yi suddenly became interested and asked gently, "Are you hungry?"
Zhang Yun patted her stomach and said, "I'm not hungry."
Mr. Yi nodded, and the words Dugu Xiong had just said emerged in his mind. His gaze turned towards the direction of the coffee shop.
At this time, Dugu Xiong was sitting on a chair, fiddling with his mobile phone in his hand, as if asking for some news.
"Go to Dugu's house." Dugu Xiong ordered.
Because the treatment in the hospital has not been very effective these days, I have turned to a private doctor abroad to treat me at home.
When Mr. Yi arrived at Dugu's house, he ordered someone to push Zhang Yun down. When the nanny saw Mr. Yi, a smile spread across her face and she walked over quickly: "Ayi is back."
Mr. Yi nodded.
When the nanny's eyes fell on Zhang Yun, the expression on her face was obviously a little ugly. She had watched Mr. Yi grow up since he was a child.
He knew this kid's personality very well. He suddenly brought back a woman, which probably matched what he had in mind.
The nanny smiled awkwardly: "Ayi, who is this?"
Mr. Yi said politely, "Let's introduce them together after we go in."
"Okay, okay."
When the nanny knew Mr. Yi was back, she became very busy and wanted to prepare a large table of food. She knew that it was not easy for the child to come home, so she had to treat him well.
Mr. Yi saw the nanny running into the kitchen in a hurry, so he stepped forward to stop her: "Aunt Liu, you don't have to work anymore, I'll be leaving in a moment."
"Don't you want to stay for dinner?" The nanny felt a little sad. This child used to like eating the food she cooked, but now...
Mr. Yi pursed his lips and looked at this huge house, which had nothing to do with him. The reason he came here was just to give some explanation to his mother.
"No, let's eat it next time we have the chance," said Mr. Yi.
This time, Mr. Yi chose a time when no one was at home. He called the nanny in advance and came only after confirming that everything was fine. Naturally, he couldn't stay at home for long.
Seeing Mr. Yi's insistence, the nanny naturally couldn't say anything else. She could only rub her hands back and forth on her apron and said, "Then I won't eat."
"You have staged a wonderful drama of affection between master and servant in the Dugu family." A familiar voice suddenly came from behind Mr. Yi.
Both of them couldn't help but look over. The person who spoke was Mr. Yi's stepmother Sun Hongmei.
The woman was dressed in fancy clothes and it was obvious that she had just returned from a fun time outside. She was looking down at Mr. Yi with a condescending look.
Mr. Yi subconsciously avoided Sun Hongmei's gaze. He and this woman had fought each other before, and Mr. Yi could not escape her poisonous mouth no matter what.
"Ayi is back, why didn't you tell me in advance?" Sun Hongmei asked, pretending to be charitable.
Mr. Yi didn't say anything.
Sun Hongmei covered her mouth with her hands and chuckled softly: "Why are you like this? If others saw it, they would think I was abusing you."
"Okay, I know you want to see your father. He is upstairs. Go up." Sun Hongmei's tone was very flat.
Mr. Yi pushed Zhang Yun into the elevator, and Sun Hongmei followed closely behind.
Sun Hongmei already had a lot of thoughts in her mind. Why did Mr. Yi choose to come back at this time?
The answer is obvious even without being said.
She crossed her arms and looked Mr. Yi up and down. She had heard about what Mr. Yi had done on the commercial street over the years and knew that Mr. Yi was no longer the weak child he was a few years ago.
I have worked hard to protect the family business for so many years, it is impossible for Mr. Yi to take it back so easily with just a few words.
"This must be your fiancée, I heard about her some time ago." Sun Hongmei asked back.
Mr. Yi felt that they had no topics to talk about with Sun Hongmei, so he just ignored her.
"I've heard that you were getting engaged, but I never thought it would be someone like this." Sun Hongmei looked a little complacent.
Sun Hongmei just wanted to tell him that no matter what, Mr. Yi could only be at the bottom of the food chain and had to look up to them.
"However, if you marry this daughter-in-law, I'm afraid she won't even be able to serve tea or water?" Sun Hongmei smiled as she spoke.
