Yun Shen was called by one of the servants to meet his family. When he entered the room, all his relatives were inside the room. They were all showing such disgust and hostile gaze towards him.
Yun Zexian did not hold back and yelled, "Shizhen what do you plan to do now? Look what a mess your son has done. Not only has he embarra.s.s himself, but he also embarra.s.sed the whole family."
"Yahui is this how you raised your family. Such an embarra.s.sment. What were you thinking? You even made your youngest son to be the President when he can"t even discipline his son well." An elder relative said.
"What an embarra.s.sment, isn"t that girl involve Bai"s girlfriend. Have you lost your mind letting your son date such a horrible girl? To think she would be my future in-law. I rather change my name than to have her as a relative." Another relative said.
Yun Bai, who was standing by the corner felt like punching his relative for saying such harsh words. He contained his emotions and continued to stand quietly in the corner.
"What are we going to do now? I"m sure Elder Chief Zhao is furious about what happened. Didn"t you see the Young Princess even took her clothes off in front of everyone?"
"How come we never heard of Shen having a daughter. When do you plan to tell us, did you know Yahui or didn"t you know as well. Then Shizhen why did you keep something so important from us. Not only are we your family, but we are also a member of the board as well."
"That"s right, the company will surely experience such a great loss. I"m sure Lord Knightley will take the invest back after we made a fool of the Young Princess. We even dare wish for such a marriage connection when Shen already has a daughter."
"Everyone, be quiet." Elder Chairman Yun yelled furious hearing all the commotion and ridiculous accusations. It was thanks to the boy they have such great invest now that he made a mistake they all turn their back on him.
"Father, please let me explain." Yun Shizhen (President Yun) approached the old man worried about what he"ll do to his son.
He ignored his son and looked at the boy standing by the door this whole time, "Shen do you have something to say?"
Yun Shen looked at his grandfather and before stepping out of the room, he left one word.
"No."
Everyone was in an uproar as the boy left the room. They continued to vent out their frustration on Yun Shizhen since he was the boy"s father.
"Shizhen, I disagree to make him the Director of the project if we still have a project."
"Brother, didn"t I ask you to let Lin handle it now look what happened. You"ll ruin everything for us."
Everyone was then silenced when the old man got up from his seat and walked out of the room. He then looked around as he searched for the boy.
As he searched for the boy, he eventually found him in the place where hardly anyone visited and the place the boy normally hides from the guest when he was young. "This was your favorite hiding place."
"No one dares enter the music room..."
Elder Chairman Yun approached the boy feeling sorry for him, "I"m sorry to have burdened you, the fault is mine, not yours. I should have helped you in taking care of the child yet I couldn"t and instead I ran away."
"Grandfather, I don"t regret having Little Yan in my life. She is the only living proof I have that reminds me of her. She may be timid towards me, but things have changed. Her beautiful smile reminds me of her every day and not a day in my life I wish to keep that smile and hope it won"t disappear."
Seeing the boy express himself for the first time ache the old man"s heart. He was to blame for everything, but he couldn"t face the truth and instead run away. He let his grandson suffer and be tortured by the family.
The family thinks he despises the boy, but the truth, he loves the boy more than his son and all his grandchildren. But he feared if he showed so much love towards the boy that something bad will fall upon him. So in order to avoid this, he played a role in which he dislikes the boy. That he knows nothing of the boy"s achievement in life and how he"s been leaving.
"Shen, I"m sorry for everything... You know very well why I"m like this towards you."
Yun Shen looked at the old man and tapped him on the shoulder, "Of course I do, you wish to protect me from everyone. You don"t need to worry, I can protect myself now. I"m no longer a child. If you excuse me, I need to explain myself to the Young Princess"s family."
He watched as the boy left the room with such a burden on his shoulder.
Outside, President Yun and Madam Yun explained the situation to the Young Princess"s family when the young man approached them.
"Elder Chief Zhao, General Zhao, Lord Knightley, Lady Zhao, forgive me for keeping such a big secret. The child is my mine and I have kept her a secret for a long time. In regards to her mother, she is no longer around and has pa.s.sed away."
Elder Chief Zhao was furious, the fact he wishes for the young man to be his future grandson-in-law yet he already has a daughter.
Lord Knightley understands why the boy kept his daughter"s ident.i.ty a secret. Just like him, he only wants the best for her. But he ponders why his daughter was showing such affection towards his child. It could only mean that his daughter already knew about it. As he realized, he sighed and pinched the skin between his eyebrows.
Lady Zhao notices her husband worn-out expression, "Darling, is something wrong?"
"You already knew didn"t you..." Lord Knightley looked at his wife who was beaming such an innocent smile.
"What could you possibly be talking about dear?"
It left everyone wondering what Lord Knightley and Lady Zhao could be talking about.
General Zhao was curious and couldn"t help wonder as well. "Sister, what did you know?"
Lady Zhao smiled at her brother and winked at him, "Brother, it"s a secret."
"Weiwei, you dare act foolishly in front of everyone. Tell us child what do you know?" Elder Chief Zhao scolded his daughter who continued to ignore them.
Seeing his wife won"t say a word, the husband aided his wife as he wrapped his arms around her waist, "Father, ignore her..."
Of course, Elder Chief Zhao restrained him and didn"t question his son-in-law"s words. He adores his son-in-law a lot since he was a spitting image of him but much better and handsome.
Elder Chairman Yun finally came out and notice the Young Princess"s family doesn"t seem upset towards his grandson. He was worried for him that he was about to announce the truth. He went to them and wonder what was going on...
"Oh, Elder Yun your back?" Lady Zhao smiled.
"Lady Zhao, forgive us for ruining your daughter"s image." He bowed as he asked forgiveness.
Lady Zhao help to raise the man up, "Oh, Elder Yun you"re not to be blamed, but he is..." She looked at her husband who became fl.u.s.tered for a moment and averted his look from her. The fact it was her husband who allowed their daughter to go naked.
"But Lady Zhao, I"m worried that people might say bad things about the Young Princess especially she..." Elder Chairman Yun couldn"t finish what he was about to say, just thinking about it was not right already.
Lord Knightley chucked as he emits such frightening and devilish aura, "Let them..."
"Hmm, as if they have the guts." Elder Chief Zhao said, with such a monstrous look on his face.
"Will see about that..." General Zhao added, whose eyes were showing such blood-l.u.s.t.
Lady Zhao beamed such spiteful yet innocent smile, "Oh, Elder Yun... Do not worry about our princess... I"m really excited to see what they"ll do."
The Yuns were taken aback, sensing such hostile aura coming out from them. Even Lady Zhao, who was calm and smiling adorably was frightening. As if she would kill the person that dare slander her daughter with her own bare hands (which she can) and wipe them out without any trace.
