Chapter 541: Lady Chu
Chapter 541: Lady Chu
“Do you know when he’ll be back? I like marking things down on my calendar,” Lady Chu asked them.
“Unfortunately, we do not know when he’ll return. It all depends on the doctors and his condition.” Tang Lee shook her head in a regretful manner.
“Unfortunate, indeed…” Lady Chu closed her eyes and proceeded to remain silent for the next few minutes.
When she finally opened her eyes again, she stood up and said to the Yu Family, “Thank you for taking your time to entertain me even though I showed up unannounced. I will return this favor in the future.”
“Don’t even mention it. It was an honor to be of help to the esteemed Chu Family.” Yu Yong said to her with a smile on his face.
“Let’s go.” Lady Chu said to the old man before walking towards the exit.
Once the young lady and the old man left the scene, Yu Yong sat back on his seat and released a stressful sigh, “Why on earth did she even come here? I was nearly shocked to death when the Chu Family visited unannounced.”
The Chu Family is one of the most influential families in the world with many successful companies all around the world.
However, despite their worldwide influence, nobody really knows much about the Chu Family besides what they show the public, which is why Yu Family appeared very nervous before them.
Compared to the Yu Family, the Chu Family was incomparably more powerful and influential. In fact, it wouldn’t be an exaggeration to call the Chu Family one of the top ten most powerful families in the world while the Yu Family hovered around the top 50.
“I am more worried about why she insists on meeting that trash. What should we do now? If we don’t let them meet, she will definitely return and ask more questions, which wouldn’t be good for our hearts, much less or our reputation.”
“There’s nothing we can do besides hope that she forgets about our conversation today. We already kicked Yu Tian out of the household, not to mention the previous incident. I am willing to bet my everything that he will not return, and I am not going to plead him to return either.”
“Furthermore, even if she returns, we can simply continue to delay it until she gives up. I highly doubt the Chu Family is willing to cause trouble for our family over something so silly.”
Tang Lee nodded her head in agreement, “Even if they cause us trouble, it’s nothing we can’t handle. It’s just going to be troublesome. Anyways, I am going to cultivate to clear my mind. Unless it’s an emergency, don’t bother me.”
Tang Lee left the scene shortly after, but Yu Yong lingered around a little longer, silently staring at the teacup that Lady Chu had drunk from, and he wondered to himself why she wanted to suddenly meet with Yuan, who hasn’t appeared in public for a decade.
“Whatever. It’s best to not think about this anymore.” Yu Yong shook his head before walking out of the room, trying his best to forget about what happened today.
Meanwhile, after leaving the Yu Family, Lady Chu walked to her limousine with the old man.
Once they were before the car, the old man opened the door for her, closing it after she went inside.
He then walked to the front of the car and entered the driver’s seat.
“Where should we go now, Young Lady?” The old man asked her.
However, Lady Chu didn’t respond, as she was completely focused on staring at the Yu Family’s household.
The old man didn’t rush her and patiently waited for her to respond.
A few moments later, she spoke in a calm voice, “We’re going to the apartment.”
“Yes, Young Lady.”
The old man immediately started the car and drove her away from the Yu Family.
Sometime later, they stopped before a tall apartment.
“We have arrived at the location, Young Lady.” The old man said.
Lady Chu nodded and got out of the car before turning to look at the apartment that Yuan and Meixiu lived at.
Once the old man also got out of the car, they made their way inside the apartment, but they were quickly stopped by security, who didn’t recognize them, and after Meixiu’s incident, security has ramped up in the apartment.
“Excuse me, are you a resident here?” The security asked them.
“No, but I am here to visit a resident,” said Lady Chu.
And she quickly added, “His name is Yu Tian, and he lives on the 17th floor.”
‘The 17th floor?’
The security raised his eyebrows.
Although he didn’t know which apartment room the incident occurred in, he knew it happened on the 17th floor.
“What’s your relationship with this person?” He then asked.
“He’s my friend, and I promised to visit him the last time we spoke, so here I am.” Lady Chu spoke with a beautiful smile on her face, causing the middle-aged man to blush.
The security didn’t think much of her answer, as there was no way that such an elegantly dressed young lady would cause any trouble.
“Please sign your name and phone number on this piece of paper and you can be on your way.” The security guard said to her.
“Thank you.”
After writing her name and phone number down, Lady Chu and the old man took the elevator to the 17th floor before approaching the door at the end.
As they approached apartment number 17F, the young lady could feel her body shaking uncontrollably.
“Are you okay, Young Lady?” The old man asked her when he noticed this.
“Yes, I am just a little nervous… and excited,” she nodded.
The old man no longer said anything and silently followed her from behind.
Once they were standing in front of 17F, Lady Chu did not immediately knock on the door and proceeded to stand there for many minutes without moving.
She then closed her eyes to calm down, reopening them after taking a few deep breaths.
‘After a decade, I have finally found you, Yuan…’
Once she was ready, Lady Chu lifted her slender arm and knocked on the door, completely unaware that the residents of 17F were away.
