Chapter 1306

"Fine, whatever you say." Liu Ruxi smiled, turned, and left.

Checking the time, his mother should be busy now, so Chen Yu sent her a message and then hurried over there.

At a five-star hotel, the entire top floor had been booked by He Lingyun.

After all, He Lingyun was the president of the He Group with assets in the trillions; wherever she went, the local leaders had to show her some respect.

Therefore, security had to be tightened. The place where she was currently staying had a private elevator, and the entire floor was guarded tightly by bodyguards.

When Chen Yu reached the elevator, a girl in uniform stepped forward to block him: "I'm sorry, this is a private elevator, you cannot go up."

"I can't go up?" Chen Yu looked at the girl in surprise, seeing that she was just in her early twenties.

She wore her hair short, stood straight, and had calluses on her palms; she must have trained.

Judging by her gaze, she was likely one of the new recruits hired by He Lingyun and did not recognize him.

"Yes, if you have business, please use the other elevator or passageway. This area is private, you cannot go up," the girl said.

Chen Yu gave a wry smile. He was going to see his own mother, and he could actually be blocked by someone?

Was there any justice in this? He looked at the girl and asked, "What is your name?"

"No comment," the girl said coldly.

"I am going up to see President He," Chen Yu said. "If you block me from going up, how am I supposed to see her?"

"If you want to see President He, you need a pass. Please show your credentials. If you don't have any, then I'm sorry, I have no authority to let you up," the girl said, shaking her head.

"I don't need any pass to see her," Chen Yu said with a chuckle. "You should just let me go up."

"I'm sorry, I can't," the girl said, staring at Chen Yu.

"Alright then." Chen Yu felt helpless and had no choice but to call his mother.

He had just reached his hand into his jacket when the girl mistook it for him reaching for a weapon.

She suddenly stepped forward and chopped at Chen Yu with her palm.

Chen Yu was startled and hurriedly dodged: "What are you doing?"

The girl leaped up, her knee striking toward Chen Yu; every move she made was a lethal strike.

Chen Yu was helpless and forced to retreat step by step; it wasn't that he couldn't beat her, he was just afraid of hurting her if he struck back.

But the girl's attacks were fierce; looking at her, she had definitely been on a battlefield.

Whoosh—another palm strike chopped toward him. Chen Yu twisted her hand back and said with a wry smile, "If you keep doing this, I really won't be polite anymore."

The girl glanced at him coldly and then struck at him with her elbow.

Chen Yu was helpless and had to restrain her hands, twisting them behind her back.

Just at this moment, the commotion had alerted the bodyguards hidden in the shadows. Over a dozen bodyguards rushed out, several of them surrounding him with guns drawn.

"Stop, what are you doing?" Mu Xi hurried off the elevator: "This is our young master, put the guns away."

The bodyguards were startled and hurriedly put their guns away.

"What kind of game are you playing?" Mu Xi walked to Chen Yu's side and looked at him speechlessly.

"I hadn't even had a chance to explain before this girl took me for a bad guy." Chen Yu released the girl's hands and smiled wryly: "I had no choice, I didn't want to fight."

"Ping'er, this is Chen Yu, the young master of our He Group, the boss's son," Mu Xi said helplessly.

The girl looked at Chen Yu in surprise, then bowed slightly and said, "I'm sorry."

"It's fine, your vigilance is quite high. Have you been on the battlefield?" Chen Yu asked.

"I've been to the Middle East," the girl said. "I've carried out missions and served in peacekeeping forces."

"No wonder. Relax, this is Huaxia, not abroad," Chen Yu nodded and said. "But it's good that you can maintain this level of vigilance."

Ping'er kept her head down and didn't speak; she was probably wondering if she was going to be fired for offending the group's young master.

"Alright, now that you know each other, let's go. Why are you only arriving now? Your mother has been missing you," Mu Xi said, taking Chen Yu's hand and walking onto the elevator.

"I was on a mission, and you know that president is quite difficult to deal with," Chen Yu said with a wry smile.

"She is indeed difficult," Mu Xi giggled. "But you men, as long as someone is pretty, you won't say they're difficult no matter what."

"That's not true," Chen Yu smiled wryly.

As for his purpose here, Mu Xi had likely already investigated it thoroughly; even all the information regarding Liu Ruxi had probably been uncovered by now.

"I'm a woman, don't I know what you men are thinking?" Mu Xi giggled. "Let's go, your mother is waiting for you."

The two stepped off the elevator and arrived in a presidential suite.

He Lingyun was reading a book. Seeing Chen Yu walk over, she put down the book and stood up: "Xiaoyu, you're here."

"Yes, my current identity is that of an employee, so it's inconvenient at times," Chen Yu said with a wry smile.

He Lingyun smiled and gestured for Chen Yu to sit down. Mother and son hadn't seen each other for a long time, so naturally, they had a lot to talk about.

"You, you're not in a hurry now," He Lingyun sighed. "Call home more often when you're free and keep in touch with the family."

"I know, I will in the future," Chen Yu said with a wry smile.

Truth be told, his experiences now had already exceeded his imagination, and as a Dharma Cultivator, sometimes a single session of meditation could last a long time.

Since he had stepped onto the path of cultivation, he was destined to be unable to live like an ordinary person.

But he still couldn't let go of his family, so he could only call home more often.

"But you don't need to worry about home. Your grandmother and Shanshan are both doing well. When I'm away, your father handles everything in the company, so there's nothing to worry about," He Lingyun said.

"That's good," Chen Yu nodded.

"Are the missions you're carrying out now all very dangerous?" Looking at her son, He Lingyun sighed slightly. Although her son was very powerful now, she still worried; after all, the things her son experienced were not ordinary.

"It's alright, I can handle them," Chen Yu smiled. "Even if there are some emergencies, there will be support."

"Why did you join Dragon Breath?" He Lingyun said with a wry smile. "I was still hoping that when I got old, you would inherit the He Group's legacy."

"Haha, how could you get old? You will always be this young," Chen Yu laughed.

"How can anyone not get old?" He Lingyun sighed, then she smiled: "Tell me the truth, is it that for people like you, family affection is no longer that important?"
