Chapter 1296: 625 Defeat, Regret Not Starting Earlier [2 More Updates]_2
Old Master Yu was frantic, taking three steps in two to block the two people’s path: “Little Nine!”
He had long lost the superiority he maintained at the press conference, his face now only showed pleading, “Little Nine, Dad knows he was wrong, Dad didn’t do it on purpose, can you, can you…”
Before he could finish, he was interrupted.
“Mr. Yu Rongji,” Si Fuqing looked at him indifferently, “have you ever treated him like a son for even a single day? Not as a product, not as a commodity.”
“No, you haven’t. In your eyes, there’re only interests, how pitiable it is to be a member of your family.”
“To put oneself in others’ shoes, but you lack a heart. Were I you, I wouldn’t be so shameless…”
Old Master Yu’s face turned deathly pale.
His lips quivered, unable to utter a word.
The words Si Fuqing said accurately pierced all his vulnerable points, tearing away his veil of shame.
He wanted to say something, but he was taken away by Shen Ying and Feng San who arrived in a rush.
Si Fuqing turned around, “Such bad luck.”
“Si Fuqing.” He suddenly called her.
“Hmm?” Si Fuqing turned her head to see his eyes deep with a smiling expression.
It was as if a spring breeze had passed, casting a rosily lit sky.
He was so stunningly beautiful, he didn’t seem like he belonged to this world.
She fell silent for a while, then whispered in a small voice, “Are you trying to seduce me?”
Yu Xiheng slightly chuckled, shaking his head, he said softly, “I’m really happy that you’re protecting me like this.”
In both lifetimes, he seemed to be alone.
He had always known the heavy responsibilities he bore on his shoulders, he had to be the one to stand in front of everyone else first.
This was the Great Xia Five States, his subjects, whom he willingly protected.
And it was only now that he knew how good it felt to be protected by someone else.
And how could he not be moved by her?
“Is this enough to make you happy?” Si Fuqing raised her eyebrows slightly, “You’re too easy to please.”
“Hmm.” He straightened up slightly, his face only a few millimeters from hers, their breath close enough to intertwine.
He said, “Pamper me.”
Si Fuqing’s eyelashes trembled, she stepped back suddenly, her voice stuttering for the first time, “You…what’s gotten into you.”
Indeed, she couldn’t connect the present Yu Xiheng with the man she had met at their first encounter.
“What’s wrong?”
“It’s not like you.”
“Then what’s like me?”
Si Fuqing thought for a moment but couldn’t come up with an answer, she snapped, “Let’s go to eat!”
**
Two days later, everything returned to normal, and the Yu family was thoroughly forgotten.
The elite circles were always quick to kick someone when they’re down.
Seeing Old Master Yu huddled with Yu Xiheng and his son in a small villa, they could not help but mock.
“Old Master Yu, tell me, how come you, a father, don’t even know what your own son does? He took over the Yu Group just like that, and you still considered him as a waste.”
“Alas, don’t rub salt in his wounds. I heard the heir he meticulously groomed doesn’t even compare to a single finger of Mr. Yu Xiheng, I really don’t understand how he chose to forsake watermelons for sesame seeds.”
Old Master Yu was used to others looking up to him; he had never been mocked like this before.
But he was completely powerless to retort and had to just take it.
“Knock, knock, knock.”
The villa’s door was knocked upon.
Fearing it was those gloating people, Yu Xiheng hastened to open the door ahead of Old Master Yu.
Outside stood a young man wearing a Master of Yin-Yang’s robe.
Yu Xiheng was startled, “Who are you?”
“Hello, I am Takeshita Takashi,” the young man said with a slight smile, “currently the Celestial Master of Yin-Yang at Great Perfection, visiting at the invitation of Old Master Yu.”
Old Master Yu’s spirits picked up somewhat, and he greeted with immense respect, “Master Takeshita, you’ve arrived.”
Yu Xiheng, however, had never heard of the name and asked with some confusion, “Takeshita?”
Old Master Yu explained with a smile, “Ah Yao, Master Takeshita is a Master of Yin-Yang from Free State. It’s normal that you haven’t heard of him. His abilities far surpass those Yin-Yang masters from those Yin-Yang families of Eastern Mulberry.”
All the joy was evident in his eyes and brows.
Previously, he would never have believed that he could actually make contact with someone from Free State.
“I wonder how much Master Takeshita charges for his services?” Old Master Yu looked somewhat embarrassed, “As you can see, our family is in this situation…”
“Old Master Yu, rest assured, I don’t seek any compensation,” Takeshita Takashi said with a smile, “I am rather interested in the customs and culture of the Great Xia Five States and would like to ask you to take me to the East Ridge Sea.”
The East Ridge Sea, situated between Eastern Mulberry region and Eastern Mulberry, is the largest sea area governed by the Great Xia Empire.
It was also the place where Ancestor Chunyuan of the Ji families exhausted his lifespan to prevent enemy invaders.
In recent years, the coastal cities around the East Ridge Sea have been very economically prosperous.
Old Master Yu was slightly surprised, “What business does Master Takeshita have at the East Ridge Sea?”
Takeshita Takashi said calmly, “I am looking for something.”

“Alright,” Old Master Yu did not ask further, “as long as my wife and I can recover, there’s no problem with wherever Master Takeshita wants to go.”
“Old Master Yu is straightforward,” Takeshita Takashi smiled faintly, “There are many complicated diseases that modern medical knowledge cannot resolve, but Yin-Yang techniques can. However, Yin-Yang and the five elements pay great attention to karma.”
“Old Master Yu, your arm is ruined, so you need another arm to replace it. The Madam is gravely ill, which means blood and organ transplants are needed.”
“So, you need to choose someone. This person must be your direct blood relative to ensure that no rejection occurs during the process of the Yin-Yang techniques.”
Upon hearing this, Yu Xiheng suddenly looked up, “Grandpa!”
This was essentially swapping one life for another, wasn’t it?
Wasn’t everyone’s life valuable?
Old Master Yu remained silent for a moment before finally speaking, “I have an older son, he should be very suitable…”
Between Yu Xiheng, his son, and Yu Qishan, he naturally chose the former.
Yu Qishan was his own flesh and blood, birthed and raised by him, his own skin and hair granted by his parents.
It was time for it to be returned.
