Chapter 2

to step in.""Mom, I'm only twenty-three! Why do you make me sound like I'm forty or fifty and still unmarried And besides, who let you come out here That jerk just now didn't seem like a good guy at a...Chapter 2

At this moment, a black Rolls-Royce with license plate Jiang A88888 slowly stopped at the airport entrance.

A middle-aged man in a black suit immediately stepped forward and respectfully opened the car door.

If this scene were to be seen by the upper crust of Jiangzhou, they would surely drop their jaws in shock, for this middle-aged man is Su Chengwu, the richest person in Jiangzhou City. Yet, at this moment, he is bowing down to open the car door for someone else.

Then, an elderly man with white hair walked down. He wore a sky-blue Tang suit and carried an elegant cane topped with a blue sapphire the size of an egg. Though he appeared frail, his posture was straight and his entire being exuded an air of majesty.

"Young Master, shouldn't you come out now"

The old man suddenly spoke, his eyes fixed intently on the airport exit.

Just then, two imposing figures appeared one after the other.

The old man's gaze remained fixed on the young figure walking ahead. To Su Chengwu's surprise, the old man quickly walked over, bowing and lowering his head in a single fluid motion. Respectfully, he said: "I am Han Tiancheng, steward of the Yuwen family of Yan Du. I am here to take the young master back to Yan Du and manage the Yuwen family."

Hearing the elder introduce himself, Yang Chen finally knew who this elder was.

But, hearing the words 'Yuwen Family,' the joy of returning home instantly vanished. A surge of anger rose in his heart, furrowing his brow.

Yang Chen glanced at Han Tiancheng with disdain: "It's really ironic. Ten years ago, my mother and I were driven out of the family and threatened that we would never be allowed to set foot in Yan Du for the rest of our lives, simply because I was a bastard son and had no right to inherit anything from the Yuwen family. Now, they want me to take charge of the Yuwen family"

Eighteen years ago, when I was only nine years old, my mother and I knelt at the door of the Yuwen family in a downpour all night. Did any of you have even a shred of compassion

Five years ago, my mother fell seriously ill. Desperate, I turned to the Yuwen family for help. How did you respond

Now that I have returned to the family from the North with honor and power, do you want me to rule the House of Uwen

"Go back and tell that person, for me, the Yuwen family doesn't amount to anything. If they dare to provoke me again, don't blame me for going to Yandu myself."

These words had been weighing on his heart for many years. Five years of military life had tempered him, making his heart as still as water, incapable of such drastic emotional upheavals. Yet at this moment, the memories he had suppressed for so long brought tears to the eyes of this stalwart man, a towering figure known for his unwavering resolve.

Han Tian grew up long and sighed, as if he had expected this scene a long time ago. He opened his mouth and said: "Yanchen Group is going to settle in Jiangzhou recently. This was your mother's company when she was still in Yandu. She built it with her own efforts using your name and hers. Now that your mother has passed away, the Yanchen Group should be returned to you."

Yang Chen smiled coldly and corrected, "It's not the Yuwen family returning what belongs to me. The Yanzhen Group originally belonged to my mother. It was just... ruthlessly taken away from her by you all."

As soon as his voice fell, Yang Chen strode away.

"The Yuwen clan, I truly apologize to you!"

Looking at his departing figure, Han Tiancheng wore a face of sadness and immediately instructed Su Chengwu beside him: "Xiao Su, from today onwards, you must do everything in your power to help the young master."

Hearing this, Su Chengwu's face was full of respect: "Elder Han, without you, there would be no Su Chengwu today. Rest assured, I will wholeheartedly assist the young master."

Han Tiancheng suddenly said again, "By the way, Young Master got married five years ago. Now that Young Master has returned, you represent the Yuwen family and go to the Qin family to express your greetings."

"Yes!"

......

A taxi sped through the streets, and Yang Chen in the back seat found his thoughts drifting back to the past.

On the night of that torrential downpour, his single knee had already completely shut him off from the Yuwen family. Five years ago, his mother succumbed to a severe illness, and at that time, Yang Chen had just graduated, penniless, and was wrongly accused, becoming entangled with Qin Xi.

To preserve their reputation, the Qin family arranged for Yang Chen to marry into their family. He agreed to this marriage in exchange for fifty million yuan to pay for his mother's medical treatment. However, before he could take the money to the hospital, his mother passed away. He didn't even get to see her one last time.

After his mother's death, Yang Chen, as promised, married into the Qin family. However, he felt unworthy of Qin Xi, whom he had long admired. Shortly after their marriage, he enlisted in the army and left.

This one turn, is five years!

In front of an old courtyard, stood a brand new Maybach.

Yang Chen glanced at the expensive luxury car and smiled lightly: "It seems that Qin Xi's family is valued more by the Qin family than five years ago. Even her father-in-law drives a car worth three to four million."

Upon returning to the Qin family, Yang Chen's feelings were extremely complicated. Five years ago, although he was also a victim of that incident, he had ultimately taken advantage of Qin Xi. She was a woman known as the top beauty in Jiangzhou.

Five years ago, he left right after we got married. No matter what, this is his fault.

It goes without saying that Qin Xi must have endured countless rumors and gossip over the years.

Back then, he was very insecure. The only way he could be worthy of Qin Xi was to achieve something great. Now, after achieving success and retiring from the world, holding power over all and countless riches, he finally had the qualifications to tell everyone that he deserved Qin Xi.

As Yang Chen reached the courtyard gate and raised his hand to knock, his arm suddenly froze. A piercing conversation echoed from inside the courtyard.

Qin Mu's voice rang out: "Xiao Wang, my aunt has been reporting the death certificate of that waste recently. Don't worry for now, wait until the death certificate of that waste is processed, then Xiao Xi will be single again."

Then Qin's father also chimed in, "When the time comes, your Uncle Qin and I will definitely agree to your marriage with Xiaoxi."

"Then, thank you uncle and aunt. It's just Xiao Xi's side, so I entrust it to you."

"Little Wang, you can rest assured, Xiao Xi will definitely agree."

"I've left everything to you two. Oh, Mother, this is pure, natural bird's nest I had a friend bring back from abroad. Father, this ice-type jade Buddha statue was brought back by me personally from Myanmar for you."

......

The entire Qin family courtyard was filled with the laughter and joy of Mr. and Mrs. Qin, while Yang Chen's face kept shifting between green and white.

Just thinking about that unforgettable figure, he forcibly suppressed the anger in his heart. No matter what, it was his fault towards Qin Xi.

Moreover, this time around, I'm back for her.

Ding! Ding! Ding!

Yang Chen's finger tapped, and a knock sounded.

"Who is it"

As if disturbed by the knocking, Qin Mu's voice was laced with impatience. Then came the sound of footsteps getting closer and closer.

Qin Mu opened the door, a smile still lingering on her face, but when she saw a figure she never wanted to see again, her expression instantly changed to one of shock and anger. "You... are you Yang Chen"e of restoring it.And the memory card, which he also squeezed into fragments, was casually tossed into the nearby trash can."You, you dare to destroy my camera! I'll fight you to the death!"The photog...
