The world stood still at this moment, and there was deathly silence all around.
All the sounds in Yu Yao's ears were taken away by the last two words.
As if someone had punched him hard in the face, he lost his balance and took a few steps back, then raised his head in panic.
The girl's fox eyes were clear in black and white, without any emotion, and she could only look at strangers like that.
Such blank gaze cut into his heart again.
Yu Yao opened his mouth: "Nine, nine..."
He couldn't pronounce that title.
As soon as the words came to his lips, he was already heartbroken.
Sour, unbelievable, dull... all kinds of emotions surged up, and Yu Yao was a little breathless.
He opened his eyes blankly, his vision was blurred, and his face was pale.
"Mr. Yu Yao, you went to the wrong place. That's the interview place over there." Shen Ying pointed to the door on the right, "This is your uncle Jiu's temporary office. All personal relationships are not allowed in the group, but you should keep it."
You still can’t forget the rules of respecting your elders.”
After holding it in for a long time, Yu Yao finally called out: "Aunt Ninth."
Si Fuqing had indeed forgotten about Yu Yao. She was filming and studying, and she had so many things to do every day that she didn't have room for irrelevant people in her memory disk.
She raised her eyebrows: "Really Ninth Brother's nephew? It doesn't look like that."
Shen Ying smiled: "I don't think so either, Miss Si, Ninth Brother is already waiting for you."
He helped Si Fuqing open the door, and closed the door again without giving Yu Yao a chance to take a look.
Yu Yao still stood there, his brain congested.
The memory he had ignored became clear at this moment.
For example, why he met Yu Xiheng at the performance of "Youth" last year, and the rumor that Si Fuqing has a financial backer.
I see.
Yu Yao was confused until he was called for an interview.
His performance in this interview was very poor and he failed to perform to his normal level.
"Unfortunately, Mr. Yu Yao, your work ability does not meet our standards." The HR (human resources) director returned his introduction, "I hope you can find a job you are satisfied with."
Yu Yao didn't know how he left the Yu Group headquarters building.
No, this building is no longer named Yu.
Everything he wanted has been at his fingertips since he was a child. When he was fifteen years old, he knew that the future Yu family would be in his hands.
But now, none of it belongs to him.
Yu Yao pinched his profile and left in embarrassment under the thorny gazes of the other interviewers.
**
Building, rooftop.
Shen Ying is counting money.
Although all transactions are done electronically now, it is still not as comfortable as having a wad of cash in your hand.
Feng San also received a bonus because he finally made the number of people who talked to the selfish couple exceed 300,000.
Canyon was filled with grief and anger: "You guys have gone too far! Why don't you call me for such a good job of earning bonuses?"
Since he lost twelve months' salary to Miss Si last year, his coffers have been very tight this year.
He also wants to save his wife's money to find a cute and beautiful girlfriend.
"It sounds like you will give it to us if you have the opportunity to earn bonuses." Feng San glanced at him, "It's because you can't find the opportunity to earn money yourself."
Canyon scratched his head and decided to be shameless: "Brothers, please teach me how to get the bonus?"
"Snapped."
Shen Ying stuffed the counted money into his windbreaker pocket: "You can't teach me, you don't have that stuff."
Canyoning is confused: “What do you have that I don’t have?”
Feng San: "Emotional intelligence."
Canyoning: “…”
He is not an evolver and cannot defeat Shen Ying. He wants to fight Feng San to the death.

Several major problems left by the Yu Group have been solved by Yu Xiheng in an orderly manner in just half an hour.
He collected the documents and asked, "What are you going to eat tonight?"
Si Fuqing blinked: "Let's go eat at the food stall!"
"Oh?" Yu Xiheng raised his eyes, "Aren't you afraid of being chased and intercepted by fans then?"
"Shh, quietly." Si Fuqing said, "You have to trust your detection and anti-tracking capabilities."
Yu Xiheng stood up: "Let's go."
The two of them left the office, took the special elevator down, and left through the back door.
"Xiaojiu!"
An excited voice sounded, "Xiaojiu, wait!"
Si Fuqing took out his ears and looked at Yu Xiheng unhappily again.
She almost thought someone was calling her.
Yu Xiheng said nothing.
Si Fuqing ignored her and pushed her wheelchair forward.
Mr. Yu became anxious and took three steps at a time to block the front of the two of them: "Xiao Jiu!"
He had long since lost the condescension he had at the press conference that day, and all that was left on his face was pleading: "Xiaojiu, dad knows he was wrong, dad didn't mean it, can you, can you..."
Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted.
"Mr. Yu Rongji." Si Fuqing looked at him indifferently, "Have you ever regarded him as your son? He is not a commodity, not a commodity."
"No, you don't. In your eyes, there is only two words: profit. Your family is really pitiful."
"Comparing hearts to hearts, you have no heart. If I were you, I wouldn't be so shameless..."
Mr. Yu's face turned pale.
His lips were moving and nothing could come out.
What Si Fuqing said hit all his pain points accurately and pulled off his fig leaf.
What else he wanted to say was taken away by Shen Ying and Feng San who came over.
Si Fuqing turned around and said, "It's really unlucky."
"Qingqing." He suddenly called her.
"Huh?" Si Fuqing turned his head and saw a smile on his deep brows.
It was as if the spring breeze was blowing, and a glow fell from the sky.
Unbelievably handsome.
She was silent for a moment and whispered: "Are you trying to seduce me?"
Yu Xiheng smiled slightly, shook his head and whispered: "I'm very happy that you protect me like this."
In both lives, he seemed to be the same person.
He has always known that the responsibility on his shoulders is heavy, and he must stand in front of others in everything.
These are the five states of Daxia, his people, and he is willing to protect them.
And only now did he realize that it felt good to be protected.
How could he not be moved by her?
"Are you happy now?" Si Fuqing raised an eyebrow, "Then you are too coaxing."
"Yeah." He straightened up slightly, his face was only a few millimeters away from hers, and his breath was so close that they could clearly touch each other.
He said: "You coax me."
Si Fuqing's eyelashes trembled and she took a step back suddenly. Her voice got stuck for the first time: "You... why are you like this?"
She really couldn't connect the current Yu Xiheng with the man when they first met.
"What's wrong?"
"Not like you."
"Then what does it look like to me?"
Si Fuqing thought for a while, but without thinking, she said fiercely: "Let's go eat!"

Two days later, everything was back to normal, and the Yu family had been completely forgotten.
Celebrities have always been accustomed to adding insult to injury.
Seeing Mr. Yu and Yu Yao and his son huddled in a small villa, it was inevitable to be ridiculed.
"Mr. Yu, tell me, how come you, a father, don't even know what your son does? He bought the Yu Group even if he said it would, and you still think he is a waste."
"Oh, don't irritate him. I heard that the heir he carefully cultivated can't even compete with Mr. Yu Xiheng. I really don't know how he lost the watermelon and picked up the sesame seeds."
Mr. Yu is used to being admired by others, but he has never been ridiculed like this.
But he was unable to refute it at all and could only endure it.
"Dong dong dong."
There was a knock on the door of the villa.
Yu Yao was afraid that he would be one of those people gloating over misfortune again, so he opened the door before Mr. Yu.
Outside the door is a young man wearing an onmyoji robe.
Yu Yao was stunned: "Who are you?"
"Hello, I am Takezawa Ryuji." The young man smiled slightly, "Now I am the Dzogchen Onmyoji Master, and I am here at the invitation of Mr. Yu."
Mr. Yu finally regained some of his energy, and he said with great respect, "Master Zhuze, you are here."
Yu Yao had never heard of this surname, so he asked with some confusion: "Zhuze?"
Mr. Yu smiled and said: "Ah Yao, Master Zhuze is an onmyoji from Free Continent. You don't know that it's normal. Master Zhuze's ability is much stronger than the onmyojis from the onmyojis of Dongsang."
The corners of his brows and eyes were filled with joy.
Before, he would never have believed that he could actually contact someone from Free Continent.
"I wonder how Master Zhuze collects consultation fees?" Mr. Yu looked a little embarrassed, "You have also seen the current situation in our family..."
"Don't worry, Mr. Yu, I don't ask for any reward." Takezawa Ryuji smiled, "I am more interested in the customs and customs of the five states of Daxia, and I would like to ask you to take me to the Dongling Sea."
Dongling Sea is located between Dongzhou and Dongsang. It is the largest sea area under the jurisdiction of the Daxia Empire.
It is also the place where Ji Chunyuan, the ancestor of the Ji family, spent his lifespan and waved his hand to stop the enemy from invading.
In recent years, the economy of coastal cities in the Donglinghai area has been very developed.
Mr. Yu was a little surprised: "Master Zhuze, why did you go to Donglinghai?"
Takezawa Ryuji said calmly: "Looking for something."
"Okay." Mr. Yu didn't ask any further questions, "As long as our couple can recover, there will be no problem in wherever Master Zhuze wants to go."
"Mr. Yu, you are very happy." Takezawa Ryuji smiled slightly, "There are many difficult and complicated diseases that cannot be solved by modern medical techniques, but yin and yang techniques can, but yin and yang and the five elements are very particular about cause and effect."
"Mr. Yu, your arm is broken, so you need another arm to replace it. The old lady is terminally ill, so you need a blood transfusion and an organ replacement."
"All you need to choose is one person. This person must be your direct blood relative to ensure that there will be no rejection during the execution of Onmyoji."
Hearing these words, Yu Yao suddenly raised his head: "Grandpa!"
Isn't this equivalent to exchanging a life for a life?
Whose life is not life?
Mr. Yu was silent for a moment and finally spoke: "I also have an eldest son, which should be suitable..."
Between Yu Yao and his son and Yu Qishan, of course he would choose the latter.
Yu Qishan was born and raised by him. His body, hair and skin were all received from his parents.
It's time to return.
The plot is still interlocking qwq
Finally, please vote, thank you all, see you tomorrow~~
