Chapter 259 Bai Mengyan Arrives

Thinking of this, Yun Yao felt nothing but heartache for Su Yuchen.

Fine, last time we weren't on guard and Su Weiwen took advantage of the situation. This time, with her here, she'll see who dares to mess with her people on the ancestor's territory.

It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that Yun Yao now controls the capital with her own hands, but no one knows it. No one would have thought that the head of the Han family, who swiftly united the four great families overnight, was also a loyal follower of Yun Yao.

"Su Yuchen, what else do you want to know? I'll tell you everything today." Yun Yao looked at him with great sincerity.

After careful consideration, Su Yuchen asked with a serious expression, "Wanwan, if I die one day, will you fall into a deep sleep again?"

Under Su Yuchen's anxious and nervous gaze, Yun Yao shook her head.

"No, I've found the bead that can prevent me from falling into a deep sleep."

Su Yuchen visibly breathed a sigh of relief and suddenly pulled Yun Yao into his arms.

"Wanwan, no matter how important the past was, it's all in the past. I hope you can look forward more than the past."

Yun Yao's eyes widened slightly.

Over the years, everyone around her has been telling her to let go of her obsessions with the past as soon as possible, but no one has ever told her to look forward.

"Looking forward?"

Su Yuchen nodded and gently patted her back.

Yun Yao and Su Yuchen stayed in the "bamboo house" until evening before coming out. After the two of them left, the palace erupted in chaos.

Palace Gate: "This is the first man our ancestor brought back. Does this mean we're going to have a grandfather?"

Zhu Zi: "That's not necessarily true. You know how fickle our ancestor was. He was like a promiscuous womanizer, never leaving a single petal behind. This time, he's probably just joking around!"

Yu Hu: "In my opinion, let's wait and see. After all, back then, so many gods, demons, and monsters wanted to be our ancestor, but they were all sent flying tens of thousands of miles away by our ancestor with a single palm strike. A mere Foundation Establishment cultivator is probably not even worth a yawn from our ancestor!"

With a roar, a monster with the body of an ox, a human face, and eyes under its armpits materialized from the head of the palace. Its yawn caused the entire palace to tremble, and all the spirits fell silent, afraid of offending this ancestor.

"I warn you all, if you dare to utter another word, I will swallow it whole." An ancient and heavy aura enveloped the entire palace.

As soon as Yun Yao and Su Yuchen stepped out of the bamboo house, they saw it sway and appear to be on the verge of collapse.

Yun Yao: "..." You damned glutton, are you trying to shake down my palace?

Su Yuchen also noticed the unusual activity in the bamboo house.

"Wanwan, what's wrong?"

Yun Yao snapped out of her daze and quickly laughed it off.

"It's nothing, it's just been neglected for years!" With that, he pulled Su Yuchen away.

As soon as they entered the Su family's courtyard, before they even spoke, their expressions darkened.

"Su Yuchen, we have guests at your home."

Su Yuchen's expression softened slightly as he led Yun Yao inside.

Upon entering, one sees three people sitting on the sofa: Bu Lanying in the middle, Su Weiwen on her left, and Bai Mengyan on her right.

Su Weiwen mentioned Bai Mengyan this morning, and now he's brought her here tonight. What does this mean? Is he trying to force the wife to step down?

However... something is different.

The woman on the sofa was even more radiant and alluring, with a pair of peach blossom eyes—no, now it should be called fox eyes, a pair of fox eyes that held a hint of bewitching charm. If Bai Mengyan was once a lady from a noble family, now she had a bit of the seductive poses of a courtesan.

Seeing how much Su Weiwen and Bu Lanying liked it, Yun Yao chuckled.

"Su Yuchen, when did your house become a stray animal shelter?"

Su Yuchen didn't speak, but simply tightened his grip on Yun Yao's hand.

Bai Mengyan's heart skipped a beat. Her gaze fell on their intertwined fingers, and anger simmered in her beautiful eyes.

Yun Yao, you bitch, you stole everything from me—my glory, my status, and my man!

This time when I come back, I will definitely make you pay for your crimes in blood!

Yun Yao coldly observed Bai Mengyan's changing gaze, showing no intention of even acknowledging her.

"Su Yuchen, didn't we say we'd take a bath together? Let's go!" Yun Yao pulled Su Yuchen away.

Su Yuchen looked at Yun Yao, a hint of helplessness flashing in his eyes.

Who said they didn't care about Bai Mengyan at all? Wanwan, your jealousy is almost overwhelming the entire Su family.

Bai Mengyan looked at Su Yuchen, who obeyed Yun Yao's every word, and clenched her hands tightly on her knees.

Su Yuchen, you won't even look at me twice, yet you're willing to bow down to this woman. What do I lack compared to her?

"Sister Yun, wait!" Bai Mengyan was unwilling to give up and finally called out to Yun Yao.

With her back to everyone, Yun Yao's lips curled up slightly; she knew Bai Mengyan wouldn't be able to resist.

"I'm all alone and have no sisters, so don't try to claim kinship with me," Yun Yao said without any mercy.

Bai Mengyan's expression was very unpleasant, but she couldn't afford to openly confront Yun Yao here.

"Miss Yun, I apologize for my abruptness. I have something I'd like to ask Yu Chen for help with. Could I borrow him from you?" Bai Mengyan's words successfully drew a lot of hatred from Yun Yao.

Su Yuchen is now the head of the Su family. If she says that, doesn't it mean that his huge Su family has to listen to an outsider's orders?

Sure enough, before Su Yuchen could speak, Bu Lanying and Su Weiwen were already very dissatisfied.

“Su Yuchen, you and Mengyan grew up together. I’ve long considered her my own daughter. Your sister wants your help, do you expect me to ask Yunyao’s opinion?” Su Weiwen said in a low voice.

Su Yuchen, however, showed no respect for Su Weiwen and turned to Yun Yao for an answer.

"Wanwan, it's your decision."

Yun Yao was secretly overjoyed. Young man, you're very perceptive!

"Fine, since she's your sister, we'll take extra care of her." Yun Yao said this through gritted teeth, sounding vicious no matter how you looked at it.

After Yun Yao pulled Su Yuchen to sit down opposite Bai Mengyan, the atmosphere became awkward again.

Upon seeing this, Su Weiwen coughed lightly.

"Mengyan, if you have anything to say, just tell Su Yuchen. He'll definitely help you as long as it's within his power," Su Weiwen said.

Bai Mengyan hesitated for a moment, but with Su Weiwen's repeated encouragement, she finally made up her mind.

"Yu Chen, I never expected the Su family to be ambushed by villains. My father has also fallen ill. The Su family is now in complete disarray. I have no other choice but to come and beg you." Bai Mengyan's voice was trembling with sobs.

If it were anyone else here, they would probably feel sorry for Bai Mengyan, but this person is Su Yuchen, and he would not be swayed by her words.

"The Su family's demise was driven by profit. Even with human intervention, it's not a long-term solution. In the business world, there's only victory and defeat." Su Yuchen's words were utterly ruthless, just like his cold personality.

Bai Mengyan never expected Su Yuchen to be so heartless, and she was unwilling to accept it!

Her eyes were slightly red and gradually became wet with tears, a sight that would break anyone's heart.

"Uncle, Grandma, how could I not know this principle? I am just a young woman, how could I possibly turn the tide for the Su family? There is not much I can do, as long as I protect my father and brother."

"Yu Chen, I know that doing business is not my forte, and I won't force it. I'm already preparing to enter the entertainment industry."
