Chapter 777: He Zhengye's Suspicion

Chen Yu nodded slightly and stood to one side without a word. He Lingyun said indifferently, "Big brother, I have already heard your proposal. I need to consider it carefully. You should go back first; I will send you a message once I have made a decision."

"Actually, this plan is very beneficial to our He Group. If there are no issues, just sign the proposal." He Zhengye seemed to have something else to say; he stared at He Lingyun, unwilling to give up.

"I still feel that the future trend does not lie here." He Lingyun shook her head slightly.

"Lingyun, think about it again." A flash of anger crossed He Zhengye's eyes, but he forcibly suppressed it. He stood up and said, "I will come back another day; perhaps you will have changed your mind by then."

He Lingyun said nothing. She said indifferently, "Big brother, I won't see you out."

"Oh, right, the old lady will be seventy soon. Go home then and make her happy." He Zhengye said, "You treat the company as your home and have lived here for over ten years without even stepping through the gates of the He Family. Don't forget, that is your true home."

"I will go when the time comes." He Lingyun was somewhat moved. It had been a long time since she had seen her mother; for her mother's seventieth birthday, she really should go back to see her.

He Zhengye nodded slightly, then glanced at Chen Yu, and without a word, walked out of the room.

"How is the old lady's health?" After He Zhengye walked out, Chen Yu asked.

The old lady was his grandmother, and she was turning seventy this year.

"Her health is fine." He Lingyun smiled and said, "Come back with me in a few days to see the old lady."

"Okay." Chen Yu nodded. "Has He Zhengye made any moves in the last few days?"

"He has been active frequently, but I haven't suppressed him as deliberately as I am now." He Lingyun said, "For some time recently, his proposals have been rejected by me, and all aspects of the company have been tightened step by step. I think he must have sensed something."

"Are you deliberately forcing him?" Chen Yu looked up at his mother in surprise, somewhat puzzled. Would his mother be pushing too hard?

"I can't wait any longer." He Lingyun smiled and said, "Having managed the He Group for over twenty years, I am tired of the infighting with him. The He Group can only listen to one person, and I also need to find out what exactly your grandfather has been doing all these years."

He Lingyun's tone was somewhat sharp. Clearly, she still harbored resentment over the fact that her son had been abducted and they had been separated for over twenty years.

"You... know everything?" Chen Yu gave a bitter smile. When he was in Ning City, he had already figured out what happened back then from his grandfather's old subordinates.

He had originally intended to keep it from He Lingyun, but she had found out anyway.

"Yes, I know." He Lingyun could not help but shed tears. "He is my father, but you are my son. I respect him, but I absolutely will not allow him to hurt you. He and your grandfather caused us to be separated for over twenty years, leaving our home in ruins. I must get to the bottom of this matter."

"Just leave this matter to me. I will control my own destiny." Chen Yu smiled.

"Then I must also have absolute control over the He Group. Even if I cannot help you, I must not drag you down." He Lingyun gave a faint smile. "Your uncle is a man who is too suspicious; I fear he has already sensed that something is wrong."

"If he has sensed it, that is even better." Chen Yu nodded and said, "When the time comes, I will announce to all of Shengjing that I, Chen Yu, have arrived."

He Zhengye left the president's office. The moment he closed the door, the smile on his face vanished.

"Si Long, do you think that Chen Yu looks a bit like He Lingyun between the brows?" He Zhengye's expression was gloomy. As he walked, he asked the bodyguard behind him.

The burly man nearly two meters tall behind him was named Si Long. He was the person He Zhengye trusted most and was his personal bodyguard, having saved He Zhengye from danger several times.

"Replying to President He, there is indeed a thirty percent resemblance between the brows. Moreover, both of them have a faint line between their brows; this is... a mother-son mark." Si Long answered as he walked.

"A mother-son mark? What does that mean?" He Zhengye stopped in his tracks abruptly.

"If two people have a mother-son mark, there is a high probability that they are mother and son." Si Long bowed slightly and said, "Furthermore, whether looking at their age, demeanor, or their relationship, she and Chen Yu definitely do not have an ordinary relationship."

"How is this possible?" He Zhengye muttered, "My sister's child died shortly after birth. I saw it with my own eyes."

"This subordinate does not know, but has President He not felt that something was wrong?" Si Long said.

"I have. I have always felt something was wrong." He Zhengye frowned and said, "I was discussing such an important matter with her, yet she didn't even intend to have Chen Yu step aside. This shows that she trusts Chen Yu extremely."

"And thinking about it carefully, their appearances do indeed have many similarities. Could it be..." He Zhengye's brow furrowed tightly. He said in a deep voice, "Go and investigate Chen Yu's true background. It is best to find a way to confirm exactly what his relationship with He Lingyun is."

"Yes, this subordinate will go and handle it now." Si Long bowed slightly and left in a hurry.

"Chen Yu, what exactly is your identity?" Watching his bodyguard leave, a look of confusion appeared on He Zhengye's face.

After leaving the He Group, Chen Yu suddenly felt a trace of Dark Power surging from ahead. His heart tightened; this aura was very familiar.

When he looked up, he met the eyes of Yu Sichen. In the crowd, she glanced at Chen Yu and then turned to leave.

"Yu Sichen!" Chen Yu shouted aloud. He had been looking for Yu Sichen, but there had been no news of her.

When Chen Yu called out, Yu Sichen's delicate body trembled slightly, then she resolutely took a step and quickly transformed into a mass of black mist.

Chen Yu's heart tightened. His figure flashed, covering ten zhang in a single leap, and he pursued her, locking onto her figure tightly.

The Dark Power in Yu Sichen's body had awakened. Although this thing was good at concealing one's presence, Chen Yu, with his powerful Divine Sense, was still able to lock onto this trace of dark aura and pursue her closely.

After chasing for more than half of Shengjing City, Yu Sichen finally stopped at an abandoned, unfinished building.

"Don't come over." Yu Sichen turned her head and glanced at Chen Yu coldly.

Chen Yu stopped in time. He sighed and said, "Sichen, I have already avenged you. The Resentment in your heart should dissipate. Come back; I guarantee that no one will be able to hurt you in the future."

"Chen Yu, I don't want you to see me like this." The cold expression on Yu Sichen's face showed a hint of emotion, and her tears fell. "And I have no way to turn back."

"Why is there no way to turn back? As long as you are willing, I will support you forever." Chen Yu reached out to her. "Come back, no one will hurt you again."
