Chapter 1919: Never Daring to Forget

"My good grandfather, you really have given me quite a few difficult problems." Chen Yu said to himself, "Even though we have never met."

"But the pain you have brought me, I will never dare to forget in this lifetime."

Chen Yu's face gradually turned cold; his own fate had been changed by He Tiansheng.

No matter what reasons he had, and no matter what causes he had, Chen Yu would never forgive him.

With a wave of his right hand, the documents regarding He Tiansheng instantly turned into a raging ball of fire. Chen Yu did not need to look at these things, because he had already deeply engraved all the information about the God King in his heart.

Just at this moment, the door creaked open, and a plump woman walked in.

She had a noble temperament and was covered in jewelry from head to toe; one could tell at a glance that she was of noble birth.

She was none other than Ximeng; her head held high, she always felt she was a cut above others.

"Mr. Chen, is it convenient to chat?" Ximeng smiled slightly as she looked at Chen Yu.

"Since you've already come, it seems you didn't intend to ask for my opinion." Chen Yu raised his head to glance at her, then said indifferently, "So, say whatever you have to say; I don't like beating around the bush either."

"Haha, Mr. Chen is indeed a straightforward person; it's no wonder Qiongsi values you so much." Ximeng laughed heartily and sat down opposite Chen Yu: "Mr. Chen now has the support of the family Council of Elders."

"I do not; these matters are false rumors." Chen Yu glanced at her and said, "I will not interfere in your family's affairs."

"Mr. Chen, do you believe what you are saying yourself?" Ximeng smiled slightly: "I believe Mr. Chen is an honest person, so I don't want to dwell on that. Am I right, Mr. Chen?"

"Heh... that's right." Chen Yu nodded: "I am an honest person, but when I say I won't interfere in your family's affairs, then I definitely won't interfere, truly."

"Mr. Chen may not interfere, but your appearance has already affected our family's landscape. Even without you taking action, the position of Head of Family is already decided," Ximeng said calmly.

"Do you think it was I who influenced the Elder Council's judgment?" Chen Yu asked.

"Isn't that the case?" Ximeng spread her hands: "If it weren't for Mr. Chen's appearance, Qiongsi would have no power to resist at all right now. It is precisely because of Mr. Chen's appearance that our family's landscape has been affected."

"No, you really think too highly of me." Chen Yu shook his head repeatedly: "Things decided by your Elder Council through the Family Council have never changed."

"They have determined that Qiongsi might be more suitable for the position of Head of Family; this is something no one can change."

"As for my appearance, it only made the burden on Qiongsi's shoulders a little less heavy. Your family's decisions, in the final analysis, are still your own business; they really have nothing to do with anyone else."

"Mr. Chen is truly humble. With your strength, influencing those few cowardly old men is actually not a difficult task." Ximeng sighed: "Whether you admit it or not, it doesn't really matter anymore."

"Because this matter has already been set in stone; if it weren't for Mr. Chen, Qiongsi wouldn't have been able to hold on until now."

"Even if I didn't appear, someone else would have helped Qiongsi. Do you really think those old men could just watch the successor they chose die? Wouldn't that be a slap in their own faces?" Chen Yu laughed.

"Mr. Chen, you actually have a better choice." Ximeng sighed, not intending to dwell on this question.

She said: "We have the support of the Roy Family, and my son Baier is also Old Roy's own grandson. Do you think he won't stand on our side?"

"To be honest, I don't care whose grandson Baier is." Chen Yu said with a smile: "I am an outsider. If it weren't for my own goals, do you really think I would be idle enough to come and meddle in your family's affairs?"

"I don't know what Mr. Chen's goal is, but if you tell me, I will definitely do my best to facilitate this matter." Ximeng said earnestly: "Even if it means exhausting the entire power of the Roy Family, we will get this done."

"That won't be necessary, because I can only get this done within the Shilaike Family; it wouldn't work with anyone else." Chen Yu shook his head: "Thank you for your kindness, but I really already have a partner, so I apologize."

Ximeng stared at Chen Yu, seemingly wanting to see through the thoughts deep in Chen Yu's heart. After staring for a long while, she sighed slightly and said: "Mr. Chen, you being like this makes things very difficult for me."

"Because I am very unwilling to be your enemy; you are pushing our relationship to a dead end."

"What do you mean by these words? A threat?" Chen Yu asked in return.

"No, not a threat, this is a reminder." Ximeng smiled slightly: "I am reminding Mr. Chen not to walk your own path to a dead end."

"And you Huaxia people also have an old saying: 'Those who understand the times are outstanding.' Mr. Chen currently seems to be somewhat failing to understand the times."

"I fail to understand the times?" Chen Yu couldn't help but laugh. He stood up and stared down at Ximeng: "Do you know? No one has ever dared to speak to me like this."

"Perhaps. In Huaxia, Mr. Chen's status was transcendent and high above; you could make many people submit at your feet with a single wave of your arm." Ximeng sneered and said: "But you seem to have forgotten one point: this is Yizhou, not Huaxia."

"I know, this is Yizhou, not Huaxia." Chen Yu nodded: "But my words are just as effective here."

A trace of hatred flashed in Ximeng's eyes: "Mr. Chen, you should go see Baier. He is a very good child, and also a very unique child."

"I believe that as long as you see him once, you will definitely be able to change your mind."

"Oh, haha, is he very unique? To what extent is he unique?" Chen Yu couldn't help but ask curiously.

"You see him, and you will know what makes him different." Ximeng said earnestly: "He is my son, a one-of-a-kind existence in this world."

"You're right, perhaps I should see him. Someone who can stand on the same starting line as Qiongsi must be extraordinary." Chen Yu nodded slightly.

"That's good, I will arrange for you to meet." Ximeng smiled slightly; she felt that her son was one-of-a-kind.

If Chen Yu saw her son, his current stance might not be so firm.

When Chen Yu saw Baier, he was completely stunned.

Baier was twenty years old, but he had not inherited his mother's wisdom or his father's looks at all.

He was a big-headed child, his entire head pressing down on his thin shoulders, making one worry that if he were the least bit careless, his head would snap off.
