Chapter 726: You Don't Even Think About It

"This is impossible, take back what you just said." Yu Qiang practically roared.

"The words I have spoken will not be taken back." Yu Sichen smiled: "I'm sorry, but your dreams of being a noble house are likely going to be shattered."

"How dare you! We gave birth to you and raised you, grooming you into a refined young lady, all for the sake of revitalizing the Yu Clan. Don't you even think about being with that brat." Wang Ling exploded: "There is a banquet tomorrow, and it will be full of high-society figures; you must attend."

"What if I refuse?" Yu Sichen raised her head, her gaze cold and firm.

"You dare to refuse?" The couple was shocked. They looked at Yu Sichen in disbelief; they could not believe this was the daughter they had been so proud of.

After a long while, Yu Qiang roared: "Someone come here! Lock her up, lock her up for me. I don't believe I can't do anything about you."

Two bodyguards stepped forward and took Yu Sichen back to her room. Yu Qiang slumped onto the sofa, clutching his chest in a fit of rage; he was so angry that his heart condition had actually flared up.

"I worked so hard to raise this daughter, only for her to treat me like this in the end. What is the point of me living?" Wang Ling wiped away her tears and cried: "For the first twenty years, I groomed her, cultivated her to be so outstanding, and built up her reputation so she would catch the eyes of all the socialites in Shengjing."

"But what about now? She has learned to talk back, learned to defy her parents. If I had known it would come to this, I really should have strangled her."

"We have been too indulgent with her. Lock her up for a few days; I don't believe her mouth will stay so stubborn." Yu Qiang's anger had not yet subsided.

"President Yu, Madam, news just came from the old master's side: a young master wishes to see the young lady." Just then, a bodyguard walked over and bowed slightly.

"Ah? Really? Which family's young master? Is it one of the Six Noble Houses?" The couple was both surprised and delighted; they jumped up and grabbed the bodyguard to ask.

"Yes, Young Master Liu Jingye. Furthermore, he has shown that he admires the young lady greatly. As long as you agree, you can set any conditions, and they can be engaged as early as today," the bodyguard said.

"That's great, that's truly great! Heaven has eyes. I know of the Liu Family's young master; he is a one-in-a-million talent. Our Yu Clan has waited so long, and finally, there is hope." The couple was so excited their eyes turned red.

"I must think this through carefully. The Yu Group lacks capital, has few clients, and lacks a strong background. Once Young Master Liu arrives, he can bring at least tens of billions in orders and a large amount of capital. Once the funds are in place, our Yu Clan can be revitalized. By then, returning to the ranks of the noble houses will no longer be difficult." Yu Qiang had already begun to envision the future.

"Right, haha, this is truly wonderful. I will go tell Si Chen this news; she will surely be very happy too." Wang Ling was grinning from ear to ear and ran out excitedly.

The Yu Clan.

After Yu Jiuzhen returned, she tearfully recounted her experience at the cocktail party.

The Head of Family of the Yu Clan, Yu Zhenye, was furious.

The Alliance Leader of the Martial Alliance can command the Three Provinces and six cities, and he is a master of the Martial Ancestor Realm. The family also has two other junior brothers who are both Martial Ancestors, and they are married into the Zhou Clan Group. The Yu Clan, this behemoth, is not something even a regional Aristocratic Family would dare to provoke easily.

But Yu Zhenye's most beloved granddaughter, Yu Jiuzhen, had been openly bullied? If they didn't settle this score, their Yu Clan would likely find it hard to gain a foothold in Shengjing in the future.

"Presumptuous! Who is that person? Don't cry, Zhen'er. Grandfather will go out personally to deal with that person for you," Yu Zhenye said angrily.

"That person is called Chen Yu. He, he seems to be extremely powerful." Yu Jiuzhen seemed to recall something, and she took out the destroyed Sword Bone: "The Sword Bone you gave me was also destroyed by him. You must avenge me for this."

Yu Zhenye, who had been furious, saw the twisted, misshapen Sword Bone, and the anger on his face instantly vanished. He took the copper pellet and looked at the distorted blade of the Sword Bone; a monstrous wave rose in his heart.

This Sword Pellet was made of special materials, possessing excellent flexibility and elasticity. Having been tempered by a master weapon-smith, it was a sharp weapon in its own right.

Yet, this Sword Pellet had actually been destroyed like this by someone. This level of strength could only be achieved by a master at least at the Martial Ancestor level.

"You said the other party is called Chen Yu, and he is very young?" Yu Zhenye asked.

"Yes, what's wrong, Grandfather?" Yu Jiuzhen raised her head and asked with teary eyes.

"His strength is at least in the Martial Ancestor Realm." Yu Zhenye barked: "Zhen'er, you must remember, although the Yu and Zhou clans can protect you, there is always someone better than you. In the future, remember not to be reckless. As for this Chen Yu, I will first investigate his background."

"Grandfather, he is just someone from out of town. Are we really afraid of him?" Yu Jiuzhen was puzzled and felt a bit unhappy inside.

"You don't understand." Yu Zhenye shook his head helplessly. This granddaughter of his had been spoiled too much by him: "No matter what, you must remember clearly: before we find out his background, do not act rashly."

"Alright, fine." Yu Jiuzhen nodded, but she didn't take it to heart; she had already set her sights on Chen Yu.

When Chen Yu went to the hospital to see Tang Xue, he discovered she had already been discharged early.

Chen Yu had intended to perform acupuncture on her one more time to consolidate her physique, but she had already run off to a welfare home under the name of the White-robed Onmyoji Group.

Chen Yu happened to be not far from there. When he arrived at the welfare home, Tang Xue was playing games with a group of children from the home.

"Brother Chen, you're here." Seeing Chen Yu, Tang Xue greeted him happily.

The areas where Tang Xue had been burned had recovered as before. Her hair was cut short to her ears, giving her a different kind of charm.

She and Tang Xinyi had completely different personalities and images. Tang Xinyi was the president of the White-robed Onmyoji Group, with a decisive and efficient style of work and a capable image. Although she had a soft side, she was an absolute powerhouse in the workplace.

Tang Xue, on the other hand, was cheerful, intellectual, and gentle. But regardless, both sisters had very kind hearts.

"I originally came to perform acupuncture to consolidate your recovery. You were injured too severely before; if you don't recuperate well, it's easy for problems to arise," Chen Yu said.

"I, I felt that my body was fine, and there were many things to handle here at the welfare home, so I was discharged early." Tang Xue looked at Chen Yu with some shyness: "Thank you for caring about me, Brother Chen."

"No matter how many things there are, your health comes first." Chen Yu said: "You are still young; if you are left with any lingering ailments, it will be a lifelong issue."

"I know, I will take good care of myself." Tang Xue nodded. She was very happy that Chen Yu had come to find her.

Most of the children in the orphanage were orphans abandoned by their biological parents, and a large portion of them had congenital defects.

The Tang Clan had nearly been wiped out during that turmoil, and the old master of the Tang family, having received guidance from an expert, decided to devote himself to charitable causes.

Now, the White-robed Onmyoji Group has six welfare homes in Shengjing, specifically to take in those abandoned orphans.
