Chapter 778: The best choice

~7 min read 1,349 words

A flash of anger appeared in Xu Tian's eyes. Even a clay figurine had three parts of temper. From the moment he entered the Yue family, whether it was Yue Zongyuan or the Yue family head, the family head's madam, none of them gave him even the most basic respect.

If it weren't for Yue Moli's sake, he would have stood up and left by now.

However, before he could speak, a bodyguard-like man walked in from outside the living room. He arrived in front of the Yue family head and said respectfully.

"Family head, the Yun family's second young master has arrived."

Yun family's second young master...

That should be Yun Shuying's second younger brother, Yun Hexian.

Xu Tian still remembered that when he had a video call with Yun Moting in Jiangcheng, Yun Shuying's second younger brother was also present.

If the other party still had an impression of him, would his cover be blown?

But now that the person had arrived, even if he left immediately, he would definitely bump into the other party. The top priority was to calm down and wait and see.

At worst, he would deny it to the death. People have similarities; the Thorn Emperor could look exactly like his wife, so why couldn't he look like some ordinary office worker in Huaxia?

"Hurry and invite him in."

Being a young master of the Yun family after all, and Yue madam having watched him grow up, Yun Hexian's treatment in the Yue family was still quite good, at least he wouldn't be sarcastically mocked like Xu Tian.

Soon, a young man with fair skin and a slender figure walked in.

The young man's appearance was delicate, but he didn't have the noble temperament that Yun Shuying was born with. On the contrary, although he looked polite and gentle on the surface, there was calculation hidden in those seemingly harmless eyes that wasn't easily noticed by others.

Xu Tian had struggled in the entertainment circle before and was quite accurate in judging people.

Even if he didn't understand Yun Hexian, just by looking at him, he disliked him very much.

"Uncle, Aunt!"

Yun Hexian respectfully greeted the Yue family head and Yue madam, looking like an obedient junior.

"Hexian, you didn't tell us in advance when you came over, so I could have the chef make the dishes you like." Yue madam stood up happily and walked to Yun Hexian's side, pulling him to sit on another empty sofa, "What have you been busy with recently? You haven't come to see me for a long time."

Yue madam had watched the Yun family's children grow up, and treated Yun Mufeng and Yun Hexian more

like her own nephews.

Especially since Yun Hexian was smart, steady, gentle, and polite, and also knew how to please elders, Yue madam took extra care of him. Whenever the Yue family got anything good, they would think of sending it to him.

"I've been quite busy recently and haven't been able to find time to see Aunt. I happened to be free today, so I came over." Yun Hexian said with a smile, "I bought the snacks Aunt likes best and the rain-before-dragon-well tea Uncle often drinks. I hope you don't mind."

"You child, why bring things." Yue madam scolded angrily, "No need to be polite with us, just come directly next time."

"How can that be?" Yun Hexian smiled with curved eyes, "Uncle and Aunt are the elders I respect most. How can I come empty-handed when visiting you?"

"You child, you really know how to talk."

This one sentence made Yue madam beam with joy.

"Hexian, I heard Mufeng has returned. Why hasn't he come out to walk around recently? I haven't seen him for a long time." The Yue family head asked.

"Mufeng just returned and has been busy accompanying Tingting, so he hasn't been able to find time." A flash of dark light appeared in Yun Hexian's eyes, but it was well-concealed by him.

"Then when he has time, you call him to come over for dinner together." The Yue family head nodded, "Today you stay and eat before leaving."

"Okay, I also miss the craftsmanship of the chef at Uncle's house." Yun Hexian replied with a faint smile.

He behaved gently and politely in front of the Yue family, but when he lowered his eyes, a flash of ferocity appeared in his eyes.

What was so good about that kid Yun Mufeng? He didn't learn any skills and caused trouble everywhere, without any achievements. At a young age, he didn't know which unchaste wild woman he got a private child with, and then threw the child at the Yun family and left.

Such a loser who disgraced the family, why was he missed by so many people?

Such an irresponsible man didn't deserve to be with Yue Moli at all, but it just happened that both the Yue family and the Yun family were trying their best to match Yun Mufeng and Yue Moli.

It was also fortunate that he was thoughtful and found someone to impersonate Yun Mufeng in advance.

"Hexian, how is Tingting recently?" Yue madam asked.

"He has been with Mufeng recently. This child doesn't look like Mufeng at all, and I don't know who his personality follows."

The Yue family head and Yue madam exchanged glances, and neither continued this topic.

Back then, after Yun Mufeng went missing, a baby was sent to the Yun family. There was a note in the baby's swaddling clothes, on which was written: "The child is Yun Mufeng's".

The Yun family naturally wouldn't believe such an absurd thing, but just in case, they still used the hair found in Yun Mufeng's bedroom to do a parent-child DNA test with the baby.

The final test result showed that this child was indeed Yun Mufeng's.

Afterward, the Yun family had been investigating the source of the child. It was a pity that the surveillance camera outside the Yun family's main gate was artificially damaged that day, making it impossible to find out who sent the child to the Yun family's door.

Although the Yun family blocked the news extremely tightly, the Yue family still knew the child's identity.

But the Yue family had no position to blame the Yun family.

After all, Yun Mufeng had always treated Yue Moli as his fiancée, but Yue Moli had always disagreed, and even refused Yun Mufeng's proposal in public more than once.

Later, Yun Mufeng left home in frustration and had no news for many years. The Yue family head and madam always felt that it was their daughter who hurt Yun Mufeng's heart, which made him confused and commit a big mistake.

Furthermore, the person who had been refusing Yun Mufeng was Yue Moli, so even if Yun Mufeng was with other women, their Yue family had no position to blame him.

And because they didn't know who the child's biological mother was, the Yue family didn't completely dispel the idea of marrying into the Yun family.

After all, there weren't many families on the entire Wuji Island that could be well-matched with the Yue family, and even fewer that were well-matched with Yue Moli in all aspects. Currently, the only one that could satisfy the Yue family was Yun Mufeng.

Yun Hexian saw the Yue family's two elders silent, lowered his head, and curled a mocking smile.

Actually, the Yue family didn't want to mention the matter of Yun Mufeng's private child. He deliberately mentioned Yun Moting, just to remind the Yue family that Yun Mufeng had a private child, and such a fickle and irresponsible man didn't deserve to be with Yue Moli.

As one of the three great families on Wuji Island, whoever could marry into them was equivalent to finding a powerful backer.

His status in the Yun family was awkward, and being able to marry Yue Moli was the best choice. ===== CHAPTER 779 =====

His status in the Yun family was awkward, and marrying Yue Moli was the best choice.
