Amid He Qiangwei's furious roar, Du Lixian's soul seemed to be struck by lightning, trembling violently.
His life was like a drifting ship, never having a clear direction, always going with the flow, passing each day in a daze.
However, at this moment, he felt an unprecedented pain in his heart, a pain that touched the depths of his soul, like a cold steel needle piercing deep inside.
He gazed at He Qiangwei, his once empty and lifeless eyes now filled with depth and seriousness. He seemed to have discovered a new continent in his life; a heavy burden called "responsibility" had suddenly fallen upon his shoulders. He asked in a deep voice, "Daughter, do you really hate him that much?"
He Qiangwei's eyes burned with fierce flames as she gritted her teeth and answered, "Yes, I hate him, and I hate everyone in the Wu family even more, especially Wu Youyou! I wish they were all dead!" Her voice was as cold as the winter wind, chilling to the bone.
Seeing his daughter in such pain, Du Lixian was filled with mixed emotions, but he didn't know what to say. He silently closed the door and left the room filled with sorrow.
Meanwhile, Wu Youyou had already handed over the B area project of Project 649 to Yang Kangwei. Yang Kangwei was overjoyed with this unexpected gain, believing he had gotten a great deal. To express his gratitude, he decided to treat Wu Youyou to a good meal.
At Yang Min's invitation, Liu Xiaolan also joined their dinner party. This time, Yang Kangwei personally cooked a sumptuous meal.
Looking at the delicious food in front of her, Wu Youyou couldn't help but exclaim, "Uncle Yang, your cooking is amazing!"
Yang Min laughed and joked, "Youyou, you have no idea how often I get to eat my father's cooking. We're all here because of you this time!"
Yang Kangwei smiled and chimed in, "Yes, I was happy as soon as Youyou arrived. I just made some simple food as a farewell dinner for you."
Liu Xiaolan was also very excited. She told Wu Youyou and Yang Min that her mother was even more excited than she was when she heard that they were coming to Kyoto. She even helped her pack her luggage and urged her to leave quickly.
Yang Min smiled after hearing this, "It seems that Youyou and I have already gained a certain place in your mother's heart!"
Liu Xiaolan nodded vigorously, "Of course! I often mention you to her. Actually, Mom really wants to meet you!"
Wu Youyou's gaze, like gentle moonlight, softly fell upon Liu Xiaolan. She spoke softly, as if a spring breeze were caressing her, "Xiaolan, once we've settled in Kyoto, you can bring Auntie over. The medical standards there are among the best in the country; Auntie will definitely receive the best care."
Liu Xiaolan's eyes sparkled with longing. She clenched her fists and said firmly, "I chose economics so that one day I can make a lot of money and give my mother a carefree life."
"That's ambitious!" Yang Min raised her glass and lightly clinked it with Liu Xiaolan's. "Cheers to our bright future!"
Filled with anticipation and dreams, the three boarded the train to Kyoto. Inside the carriage, laughter and cheerful chatter filled the air.
When Song Shaojie learned that they were coming to Kyoto, he was as excited as a child, and kept muttering to Shi Zhan, "Zhanzhan, think about it, they finally came to Kyoto together, shouldn't we do our duty as hosts and show them around?"
"Where will they stay?" Song Shaojie scratched his head. "How about I go and arrange their accommodations right now?"
"And also, they must be very tired after coming here, let's go soak in the hot springs!" Song Shaojie became more and more enthusiastic as he spoke.
Shi Zhan finally lost his temper and coldly interrupted him: "Shut up! Say one more word and I'll kick you out!"
Song Shaojie was stunned, looked at Shi Zhan with a wronged expression, and muttered softly, "Then I'll make the arrangements myself."
"Hmm." Shi Zhan responded lightly, which was taken as agreement.
Although he appeared calm and collected on the surface when Wu Youyou and the others arrived, he had already planned everything in his mind.
In a coffee shop in Kyoto, Wei Ziyao and Xiao Yiqing sat facing each other.
Both of them appeared calm and composed, but a subtle tension permeated the air.
Wei Ziyao broke the silence first, "That Wu Youyou was really lucky last time. It's a pity for my cousin, he can never be a man again, he's practically childless."
Xiao Yiqing chuckled lightly, picked up her coffee cup, and took a small sip. "People's tastes always change. Like how I used to only like coffee with milk, but now I prefer this bitter and strong flavor."
Wei Ziyao raised her beautiful eyes slightly and parted her red lips slightly, "As long as you can help me deal with Wu Youyou and prevent her from entering Peking University smoothly, I promise to get you some fresh snacks to go with your drinks."
Xiao Yiqing was slightly taken aback, a bloodthirsty glint flashing in her eyes, before she smiled and said, "Deal!"
Their deal was struck, and Wu Youyou's trip to Kyoto had only just begun...
In a corner of Kyoto, Xiao Yiqing, like a chess player in control of the game, leaned back slightly, arms crossed, her eyes radiating confidence and composure. Every movement she made seemed to declare: everything is under control.
Meanwhile, in another corner of Kyoto, Wu Youyou and her friends are setting foot on this ancient yet vibrant land.
Song Shaojie, a dashing young man, was already waiting quietly at the station exit in his luxury car. His gaze swept through the bustling crowd and immediately locked onto three beautiful women who had just emerged from the station.
Song Shaojie smiled and waved to them, calling out loudly, "Xiao Lan, over here!"
His voice was full of anticipation and excitement. Liu Xiaolan looked in the direction of the voice and saw a handsome man waving at her. She immediately recognized him as Song Shaojie, and a smile involuntarily crept onto her face as she waved back.
