From Zhao Qibing's tone, Uncle Zhu thought the man had overheard his conversation with Wei Zhao. His heart nearly exploded with fright, but he still opened the door without betraying anything and asked carefully, "Young Master Bing, I was just playing on my phone. What is it?"
"Oh, then stop playing for now and come out with me to handle something. Hurry!" Zhao Qibing did not care in the least what Uncle Zhu had been doing.
"Ah? All right!" Uncle Zhu breathed a sigh of relief and asked, "What is it, Young Master Bing? Let me get ready."
"We are going to seize someone!" Zhao Qibing said. "Hurry, no need to prepare. We are leaving straight away!"
"Oh, all right!" Uncle Zhu nodded and quickly followed Zhao Qibing out of the room, asking as they walked, "Who are we seizing?"
"You will know when we get there," Zhao Qibing said with a wave of his hand, saying no more.
Uncle Zhu had no choice but to go along with Zhao Qibing...
At the hidden Yu family estate, tonight was the evening of the Yu family's family dinner. Every so often, the hidden Yu family held such a banquet, and all the direct descendants of the Yu family would attend. Yu Shan and Yu Ning, as the younger generation of the family, were naturally no exception.
In the past, Yu Shan would never have attended such an occasion. He had already given himself up for lost and no longer cared about standing in the family; he was a cripple anyway, so he could not be bothered to attend such family gatherings.
But today was different. He had a mission, and so he came to the gathering.
Yu Xiaochen was rather surprised that Yu Shan had come. Though he did not much care for Yu Shan in his heart, as the family head he still nodded to him and said with a smile, "Yu Shan, you have finally deigned to attend the family dinner? I thought you only came out when outsiders were present."
"Heh, Uncle, I have come around. A cripple is a cripple; even if I cannot recover my strength, I can still do my part for the family. I cannot go on decaying like this forever," Yu Shan said.
"Oh? It is naturally for the best that you can think that way," Yu Xiaochen said, slightly taken aback, then offered his encouragement.
This dinner was no different from any other. The Yu family's old ancestor also came down the mountain to attend, though he said little; even when he saw that Yu Shan had come, he merely nodded and said nothing more.
The dinner ended quickly, and just as everyone was preparing to leave, Yu Shan spoke up: "Xiao Ning, it is rare that your brother is in good spirits today. Push my chair and take me for a spin outside, how about it?"
He was a cripple now and had to get around in a wheelchair. Yu Ning was a little surprised that Yu Shan would say such a thing—since his injury, had he not always kept his distance from the family?
