Chapter 804: Xu Huizhen persuades Yu Li to go to Linshui

~7 min read 1,242 words

Yu Yuanqing came to Xu Huizhen's villa.

Cai Quanwu and she greeted him at the door.

Lao Cai had suffered a lot when he was young, and being old, he now sits in a wheelchair.

Xu Huizhen's body, however, remained sturdy.

Seeing them run to the door to greet him, Yu Yuanqing felt overwhelmed by the unexpected warmth.

"Aunt Xu, Uncle Cai, why did you come out?"

Xu Huizhen vaguely recognized the person.

"Yuanqing, I almost didn't recognize you—you came, you came, why bring anything?"

"We have everything at home; we can't finish it all."

Yu Yuanqing laughed.

"It's nothing valuable; with so many kids in your family, how could you not finish it?"

After exchanging pleasantries,

they chatted about family matters, then moved on to the main topic.

He briefly talked about his mother's situation.

"Aunt, my mother is already this old, yet she insists on living alone; we hired a caregiver, but she drove them away in just two days."

"I can't go there every day; if something happens, no one will be with her—what should I do?"

"I thought, my mother listens to you the most—could you persuade her?"

Xu Huizhen had some idea of what Yu Li was thinking.

He glanced at Lao Cai.

Lao Cai didn't know what was going on, his eyes bewildered.

Xu Huizhen gave him a sideways glance.

"It must be because of what happened with Gu Ning."

"No, I'll go see her tomorrow; I don't know how long it's been since she last visited me—if she doesn't come, I'll have to go to her."

Yu Yuanqing quickly thanked them.

Xu Huizhen saw Yu Yuanqing off.

She then began talking to Lao Cai about Yu Li.

"Yu Li, perhaps because of Gu Ning, has been hurt."

"And back then…"

She recounted the grudges and entanglements between the women of the Siheyuan and Yang Qing.

"Recently Yang Qing has suddenly become active online again, possibly stirring up old pains."

Lao Cai widened his eyes.

"Was Yang Qing really that popular in the Siheyuan back then?"

Xu Huizhen affirmed.

"Men and women think differently; if Yang Qing had just been ordinary, others might have had fleeting thoughts, but after so long, they would have forgotten."

"But Yang Qing is extraordinary—he single-handedly built up the Yang Family."

"I don't even know how much money the Yang Family has now."

"Pizza Hut's market value is 3,700,000,000,000 Hong Kong dollars."

"And the Yang Family's enterprises, comparable to Pizza Hut, are beyond my ability to describe."

"That woman could withstand a man like that."

"Let me tell you what happened with Yu Li back then at night…"

"You say maybe nothing happened?"

Lao Cai thought of his lifelong hustle with Shunfeng Express.

Shunfeng Express now spans the globe; the company alone has over a hundred container ships.

Its market value amounts to tens of trillions, easily.

Such a man—there are surely countless women who regret never having been with Yang Qing.

Not to mention the legendary one‑hour tale from back then.

For this matter, Xu Huizhen has certainly not spared him her nagging.

"You mean Yu Li, old as she is, has suddenly blossomed like an old tree flowering?"

He felt it was a bit far‑fetched.

Xu Huizhen shook her head.

"Who knows?"

"Back when they looked at Gu Ning, Chen Hong and her trio certainly didn't hold back on showing off."

"They said how wonderful Linshui was."

"Wasn't it also suggested that we go there?"

"Yu Li had once made an agreement with Yan Jiecheng—if he fell through, she was ready to roll in the sheets with Yang Qing."

"Now, living alone, after having seen Gu Ning, she might be thinking who knows what; a body long untended is most prone to wild fantasies."

"She might even have come down with lovesickness."

Lao Cai thought it over.

"Otherwise, when you go tomorrow, why not invite her to come to Linshui for retirement?"

"You're also drawn to Linshui, aren't you? Then let's go."

Adding Yu Li might make it even livelier.

Moreover......

Lao Cai laughed hehe.

Maybe there's still a good show to watch.

Xu Huizhen also laughed along.

Alright, then I'll try tomorrow.

The next day.

Xu Huizhen went.

After trying to persuade Yu Li for a while with no success, Xu Huizhen began to express her idea.

Yu Li, why don't you come with us to Linshui?

We old folks can also look out for each other.

Yu Yuanqing, this child, it's right to worry; if you keep living alone, what if something happens?

Yuanqing, this child, would be heartbroken to death.

If you go to Linshui and live with us, everyone will have someone to look out for.

Yuanqing, this child, won't have to worry about you either.

Look, you're alone all day, and you've become completely gloomy.

What a fine person you used to be; now I don't even recognize you.

Yu Li's heart fluttered at once, but she still repeatedly refused.

Xu Huizhen persuaded several more times; seeing that Xu Huizhen was about to stop persuading, Yu Li quickly agreed.

Xu Huizhen, seeing this, immediately showed a meaningful smile.

Thought: no need to worry about lacking liveliness in Linshui.

When Yu Yuanqing learned that Yu Li was going to Linshui, he immediately showed an embarrassed expression.

Mom, you've gone so far; how can we take care of you?

Yu Li was in high spirits.

You don't need to take care of us; we few can look after each other.

Yu Yuanqing again said embarrassedly.

Mom, we don't have that much money now to buy a house there.

Yu Li pointed to the house she lives in.

I plan to sell this house, then chip in with Aunt Xu to buy a villa.

I have a pension for my living, so you don't need to worry.

I heard that place is especially suitable for retirement.

Seeing my mother's state, Yu Yuanqing really realized that my mother and Yang Qing indeed have some history.

He didn't know whether to cry or laugh.

Thinking of his own name.

He even wanted to ask Yu Li.

Mom, is my father Yang Qing?

In the end, he still didn't say it out.

His current life is fine; better not stir up trouble.

If it's not, that would be even more awkward.

After Xu Huizhen and Cai Quanwu discussed with the family members, the family members all agreed.

No way, their kids are very familiar with the Yang Family, and Yang Qing is even more the stepfather of Houkui.

When they gathered together to go see them for the New Year, they didn't need to make extra trips.

Otherwise, how could Chen Xueru always be Houkui's mother? You wouldn't go see?

Moreover, Linshui is indeed quite suitable for retirement; maybe in a few years they'll go there too.

The whole family happily sent the person to Linshui.

When Yu Li arrived in Linshui and saw Yang Qing, her whole self became spirited.

The environment here is great.

Women, even when old, can't change their vain nature.

Living in this place, she became completely bright and cheerful.

She can also often go to the Yang Family to join the fun.

Her mood could not be bad.

Qin Huairu, upon seeing Yu Li, was also very excited.

After all, it's just a courtyard.

It has a natural sense of closeness.

The key is, with Yu Li as a foil, she felt completely elevated.
