Weiwei's recovery was surprisingly quick.
Apart from her rosy cheeks and a slightly odd way of walking, you could hardly tell from her other actions what she had just been through.
"She didn't say much, just told the two of us that the guests had arrived."
"And, she came and went using the outdoor staircase."
Lin Yu said, pointing towards the stairs.
With Xia Yiwei's cleverness, she couldn't possibly miss the implication in Lin Yu's words.
Xia Yiwei looked towards the staircase with a hint of surprise.
Soon after,
a displeased expression returned to her face as she muttered,
"She thinks she's got leverage over us now, doesn't she? She's going to use this to threaten me later!"
"I don't believe for a second she has any good intentions. She definitely wants to cause trouble for me in the future."
Lin Yu: "..."
It seemed he had overthought it.
The conflict between these two women.
How could it be resolved quickly just because of his hint?
...
Not long after,
Lin Yu and Xia Yiwei came downstairs.
"Aunt Lan, you... what brings you here?"
Seeing the woman sitting at the round table, Xia Yiwei exclaimed in surprise.
Hearing the form of address, looking at the woman's seat, and then at Lei Siren's expression,
Lin Yu instantly understood what was going on!
Damn...
The older generation really doesn't hold back when they make a move!
Old Xia's move is too ruthless!
He actually brought Lei Siren's mother here directly!
No wonder Old Xia could answer so calmly and confidently when faced with Weiwei's accusations earlier.
He even promised he would definitely get justice for his daughter.
Just think,
what could be more devastating than exposing a son's scandal right in front of his own mother?
This is too intense!
Lin Yu couldn't wait to see how this "Aunt Lan" would handle the big revelation of her son's misdeeds later.
Clearly,
Weiwei, who was exchanging greetings with "Aunt Lan," also understood her father's intention.
While chatting with Aunt Lan, the corners of her mouth couldn't help but curl upwards.
She was overjoyed inside!
"Weiwei, introduce Xiao Yu to your Aunt Lan."
"It's Aunt Lan's first time meeting him, so it's better for you to do the introduction yourself."
Hong Lan looked at Lin Yu, a flicker of doubt in her eyes.
She vaguely sensed something was off about the atmosphere.
Especially after seeing her son's defeated look, it became even more hard to believe.
For Lin Yu, an outsider, to appear at Xia Zhenfeng's "family dinner,"
he must have a direct connection with someone here!
Is Xia Zhenfeng an ordinary man?
How could just anyone be invited to his home?
And among the people present, the only one who could possibly be connected to Lin Yu
seemed to be Xia Yiwei!
Xia Zhenfeng even asked Xia Yiwei to make the introduction herself, the hint was already clear enough.
Could this young man and Weiwei be...?
Hong Lan had a rough guess in her heart, but she found it a bit hard to believe.
Mainly because...
Lin Yu looked so young!
Weiwei likes this type of young guy?
Immediately after,
Xia Yiwei excitedly linked arms with Lin Yu and introduced,
"Aunt Lan, let me formally introduce you, this..."
"is my boyfriend, Lin Yu!"
"We had a meal with Lei Siren together before, so he already knows him."
Hong Lan: "!!!"
Fortunately, Hong Lan was a woman of the world.
No matter how shocked she was inside, she maintained a calm and composed exterior.
She walked up to Lin Yu and said with a smile,
"Good, very good, what a fine young man."
"I've watched Weiwei grow up, and this is the first time I've heard she has a boyfriend."
"Xiao Lin, you must treat Weiwei well, and never let my dear niece down!"
Lin Yu inwardly admired her.
The composure of the wealthy is truly impressive.
Even with such a major development, she could act as if nothing was wrong.
Lin Yu nodded politely in agreement,
"Don't worry, Aunt Lan, I will definitely not let Weiwei down."
After the exchange of greetings,
Hong Lan turned and glanced at Lei Siren.
With a look only the two of them could see, she fully conveyed her fury.
Lei Siren naturally understood his mother's meaning.
It clearly said:
How could you not tell me about something as big as Xia Yiwei having a boyfriend?
His initial attempts to get close to Xia Yiwei were even subtly encouraged by his mother in the first place.
Now, faced with such a drastic change of events, how could Lei Siren possibly have the face to bring it up?
nd fell into a coma while saving his younger sister from an out-of-control car. He became a vegetable. No one knew that his consciousness had crossed into a world of cultivation. Over the course of sixty years, he began as the lowest kind of mine slave, struggling to survive amid mountains of corpses and seas of blood. By sheer chance, he eventually obtained the complete memories of a fallen Immortal King. Alchemy, medicine, formations, feng shui, physiognomy, artifact forging… Every great inheritance of the cultivation world was now his. But when he opened his eyes again, he discovered that ten full years had passed in the modern world. To pay for his treatment, his father had sold the family’s shop and house, leaving himself covered in lasting injuries and illness. His mother had cared for him day and night, and more than half of her hair had already turned white. His younger sister, who had been only fifteen back then, was now twenty-five. To help repay the family’s debts, she had been forced to lower her head and put on a smiling face in places of glittering lights and endless revelry. Only then did Chen Xuan understand that what he had lost was not merely ten years. He had lost the life his entire family was meant to have. The good news was that he had brought back the memories of an Immortal King’s entire lifetime. The bad news was that his soul had returned alone—his cultivation had not come with him. Spiritual energy was scarce, resources were depleted, and the modern world still had firearms, surveillance, capital, and laws. If he wanted to protect his family, break free from everyone’s control, and become truly invincible beneath the heavens, he would have to start all over again.

e bizarre and supernatural had descended. The previous emperor was a thoroughgoing tyrant; no longer satisfied with human women, he had set his sights on a stunningly beautiful supernatural entity. He met his end in his bedchamber, drained of all his vital essence. As the legitimate eldest son and crown prince, Wang Hao was thus hastily enthroned, becoming the young emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty. No sooner had he awakened the "Imperial Sign-In Intelligence System" than he was assassinated by a Son of Destiny—a classic villain's opening. The Great Zhou, ravaged by the former emperor's excesses, was in national decline. The great families within its borders harbored their own treacherous schemes, martial sects began to defy the imperial court's decrees, and border armies, their pay and provisions in arrears, grumbled incessantly against the central government. Fortunately, the central capital was still held secure by the half-million Imperial Guards and fifty thousand Imperial Forest Army who obeyed the court's orders, along with the royal family's hidden reserves of power, barely managing to suppress the realm. As the Great Zhou's finances worsened and supernatural activities grew ever more frequent, the court sat atop a volcano. Ambitious plotters everywhere dreamed of overthrowing the dynasty, and even some reclusive ancient powers emerged, attempting to sway the tides of the world. At the first grand court assembly, the civil and military officials nearly came to blows, fighting tooth and nail over the allocation of fifty million taels of silver from the summer tax revenues. The spectacle opened Wang Hao's eyes—the Great Zhou's bureaucracy was not only corrupt but also martially proficient, a cabinet of all-rounders. Some officials even had the audacity to suggest the emperor release funds from the imperial privy purse to address the emergency. Wang Hao suddenly felt weary. Let it all burn.
