Chapter 202 I just want to know your real name
Yun Yao had been away from the capital for some time and had no idea how the situation there had changed. When she stood on this familiar land again, she felt a sense of belonging.
With a casual swipe on my phone, I saw the news that Su Yuchen, the president of Yonsei International, had reappeared at the company.
They must have been waiting for too long and couldn't stay in the hospital any longer, right?
Yun Yao took out her phone, her fingertips hovering over the screen as she quickly typed a message.
I'm back, where are you?
Before she could even put her phone down, Su Yuchen had already replied to her message.
Yun Yao was starting to suspect that this person was standing right next to the phone, otherwise how could they reply so quickly?
【at home.】
Although it was just two simple words, Yun Yao felt a warmth she had never experienced before, and her heart longed to return home.
When she saw the tall, slender figure standing at the door, all her fatigue and displeasure were instantly washed away, and she stepped towards him.
Standing in front of him, Yun Yao slowly raised her eyes, her words carrying a hint of teasing.
"Good evening, Mr. Su."
His eyes were exceptionally tender, filled with endless gentleness.
The next second, Yun Yao fell into a warm embrace.
Good evening, Mrs. Su.
The faint fragrance emanating from him lingered around her nose, and Yun Yao's lips curled up slightly. She raised her hand to wrap around his waist, and a sense of ease and comfort she had never felt before in thousands of years washed over her.
In the dim light, a perfect couple embraced, a gentle breeze ruffling the hair of the person in his arms, and he tenderly raised his hand to stroke it down.
"Are you hungry? I've prepared your favorite dishes." Su Yuchen said, reluctantly pulling away from the embrace.
Su Yuchen took Yun Yao's hand and led her into the house. After settling her in, he went to fetch the food.
Even though she was already seated at the dining table, Yun Yao hadn't recovered from the hug she'd just received. Looking at the person opposite her, she felt a pang of disappointment.
Su Yuchen knew exactly what she was thinking, so he ladled out a bowl of soup and handed it to her.
"Eat well."
"Oh," Yun Yao replied reluctantly.
Yun Yao herself didn't realize that at this moment she had a touch of girlish playfulness and shyness.
Su Yuchen took meticulous care of Yun Yao, even refusing to let her pick up food herself. Yun Yao seemed to enjoy being served by Su Yuchen, and ate with great pleasure.
If a third person were here, they would surely be shocked by the way the two of them get along.
Is this still the arrogant and domineering Yun Yao?
And... wasn't Su Yuchen supposed to be ruthless and kill without blinking an eye?
Then who is this person who dotes on you and does everything for you?
"Su Yuchen, what's the situation in the capital lately?" Yun Yao asked.
"Let's not talk business over meals, let's eat first."
Hearing this, Yun Yao had no choice but to give up and obediently started eating.
After the two finished their meal, Yun Yao was still worried and asked again.
"When I left, the four great families were already making moves. What's the situation now? Have they targeted Yonsei International?"
Su Yuchen then looked at her, his expression grave.
"The four major families have been banding together for quite some time now, and they have indeed become more arrogant recently. They are currently negotiating with our two companies' suppliers in private, trying to undermine our supply chain."
"Furthermore, the addition of HM has greatly boosted their morale, and Yonsei International and W International are now in a state of isolation and helplessness." Su Yuchen told Yun Yao about the current situation in the capital.
Yun Yao's face also darkened. She knew that the four great families would not let this go easily. She wanted to resolve all the troubles before letting Su Yuchen show up, but no one expected that Yuwen Qingyue would cause this incident halfway through!
"What are your thoughts?" Yun Yao looked up at Su Yuchen.
Su Yuchen's cold eyes were tinged with a hint of chill as he parted his thin lips: "I don't mind fighting to the death, putting ourselves in a do-or-die situation, and completely crushing the four great families under my feet."
As soon as those words were spoken, even Yun Yao felt a chilling aura wash over her.
She didn't think Su Yuchen was exaggerating at all; she knew he had the ability.
"Just to my liking."
The two exchanged a smile, both seeing admiration in each other's eyes—a mutual appreciation between like-minded people.
After saying this, Su Yuchen took a bottle of juice from the refrigerator and handed it to Yun Yao.
"There's been a problem with your Linglang Pavilion."
Yun Yao paused, somewhat surprised.
"Linlang Pavilion?"
"Yes, Qi Mo offended the Gu family."
Yun Yao's eyes darkened slightly as she took the juice from his hand and fell into deep thought.
Although Qi Mo is young, she has seen how he conducts himself and how he treats others. He is courageous and resourceful, a business prodigy who is rare in a century.
“Zhou Wan, the Linlang Pavilion’s growing influence will eventually block others’ path to wealth. Don’t forget, the Treasure Pavilion is owned by the Gu family,” Su Yuchen reminded him in a low voice.
"Yes, I know. It seems we need to speed things up." She couldn't delay any longer; she had to crush the four great families under her feet.
Unbeknownst to Yun Yao, the person opposite her dimmed their eyes for a moment.
That's right, Zhou Wan, how could someone as meticulous as her not have noticed? How could that be!
Yun Yao answered decisively, her mind preoccupied with the Linlang Pavilion, completely unaware that she had been tricked, until the atmosphere around her became increasingly awkward.
Wait, something seems to have been overlooked?
Yun Yao suddenly looked up and met Su Yuchen's meaningful gaze. She thought carefully about what Su Yuchen had just said.
Oops!
Stay calm, stay calm, don't panic!
"Zhou...Zhou Wan? What Zhou Wan? I don't know what you're talking about?" Yun Yao stammered, quickly averting her gaze.
Su Yuchen sat down beside her, his eyes full of interest.
"Qingyue Dynasty, Grand Preceptor Zhou Wan, doesn't that name sound familiar?"
Looking at the magnified handsome face in front of her, Yun Yao's heart pounded, and her hands resting on her knees tightened unconsciously.
"Ha, are you talking about Zhou Wan, the Grand Preceptor of the Qingyue Dynasty? How could I not recognize the name? I've been studying them these past two days!" Yun Yao hurriedly picked up the juice on the table and took a sip.
Su Yuchen wasn't in a hurry to expose her, and said casually, "The Qingyue Dynasty is only five hundred years old. I'm sure you know a lot about it, right? I'd like to hear."
Su Yuchen is so arrogant right now. How can he say "I want to hear it" so confidently?
I want to hear your grandpa's voice!
Yun Yao was so engrossed in figuring out how to get away with it that she didn't notice the person approaching her until a large hand grabbed her waist.
Yun Yao was startled. She looked up and her butterfly-like eyelashes brushed against Su Yuchen's chiseled chin.
A tingling, itchy sensation came over him, and the last string in Su Yuchen's heart snapped. His warm breath was on her ear, and his hand on her slender waist tightened its grip.
“Yun Yao, you are the Grand Preceptor of the Qingyue Dynasty,” he said confidently in Yun Yao’s ear.
Upon hearing his words, Yun Yao tensed up, feeling as if she wanted to die.
"I... how could I be the Grand Preceptor of the Qingyue Dynasty? Are you... are you kidding me?"
Little did she know that the more she explained, the more flustered she became, and Su Yuchen had already noticed her behavior.
With a beauty in his arms, Su Yuchen felt mostly jealousy.
"Oh, I was just saying it offhand, but... the Imperial Preceptor Zhou Wan has a great reputation, which is truly enviable."
Yun Yao had never felt time could be so agonizing. She couldn't wait to tell Su Yuchen that Zhou Wan was her, and that she was Zhou Wan!
But no!
She hadn't figured out how to start the conversation yet!
But soon, reality shattered Yun Yao's usually calm and composed mindset.
"Yun Yao, I don't care about your past, but I... just want to know your real name."
