Zhuo Yun drove the car back to their villa next door. After getting off the car, he walked beside Min Yu. “Those people following us today were quite highly skilled. I wonder who sent them.”
Min Yu walked through the door and put on a pair of slippers before he said calmly, “Now that the underground forces here have been forced to reorganize, it’s only natural that the other clans want a piece of the pie.”
Zhuo Yun frowned and said, “I think you should pass on going to the Huang family’s funeral. Yang Yi and I can go on your behalf.”
The Huang clan was the most influential underground power in City S and served as a conduit with other global powers. However, their family head suddenly died and there was no one in the family suitable to take over.
All eyes were already on the Huang clan, and they seemed to be in grave danger. Any family that wanted to steal power from the Huang clan was likely to get slaughtered by their competitors.
Min Yu turned to look at Zhuo Yun and said nonchalantly, “It’s fine.”
Min Yu headed to the living room.
Zhuo Yun followed behind. “But…”
Just as he was about to say something, he caught sight of Old Master Min sitting in the dining room, so he instantly stopped talking and greeted him reverently.
Since Old Master Min was some distance from them and Zhuo Yun did not talk loudly, he did not hear what they were saying. Instead, he could not help probing when he saw them talking so solemnly. “What are you discussing?”
“Nothing,” replied Zhuo Yun uneasily with his eyes lowered.
The food was already on the dining table. Min Yu washed his hands before he sat down next to Old Master Min. He looked at the old man and said, “After we eat, I need to talk to you about something.”
Old Master Min instantly frowned. “Do you want to send me back again?”
Min Yu’s hand did not stop as he picked up his chopsticks and placed some food in Old Master Min’s bowl. “Uh huh.”
“I said I don’t want to go back so soon.”
“You are getting in my way,” said Min Yu powerlessly as he looked at him.
Old Master Min was instantly upset. “How could I possibly be in your way? I don’t butt into your business at all.”
Min Yu contemplated for half a minute and said, “You are seriously getting in my way of finding you a granddaughter-in-law.”
Zhuo Yun quietly stood by the side and watched as his boss spouted nonsense. Even before Old Master Min had arrived, Min Yu had never courted any girl.
Old Master Min slammed the table and glared at Min Yu. “What do you mean I’m getting in your way?”
Old Master Min was furious, but Min Yu remained calm. “I thought you’d know better.”
The old man went speechless. “…”
“I will personally send you home tomorrow.”
Although Min Yu spoke airily, those familiar with his temperament knew that he was determined.
Old Master Min stopped eating altogether. He stood up and left the dining room to go upstairs.
Yang Yi came back from the wine cellar with a bottle of wine. He glanced around and asked quizzically when he came back to the dining room. “Where is Old Master Min?”
Zhuo Yun squeezed his brows before he furtively pointed at Min Yu and shrugged. Yang Yi instantly caught his drift.
Was Old Master Min throwing a tantrum again?
Yang Yi lowered his eyes to look at the red wine in his hands. He was unsure whether he should uncork it now.
After all, Old Master Min was the one who wanted it.
