Chapter 739: Be With Li Zhe
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Once the words had been spoken, Guan Lei fixed his gaze firmly on Nieng Yu and asked, “Since we are all here today, Meng Yu, why don’t you tell us about your future plans? Who do you want to be with? Personally, I hope that you can choose a girl you like from today’s gathering, marry her, and then return to the Guan family. I will let you stay with us as a sworn brother, and your child will be the heir of the Guan family.”
Guan Lei had not spoken recklessly. His plan for today was to have Meng Yu choose someone he liked, then stand before their grandfather and declare that Nieng Yu would marry the girl as his adopted son and inherit the Guan family. He could stay hidden behind Meng Yu, keeping an eye on those old folks from the Guan family, ensuring they would not cause any trouble.
This way, he could break free from the family’s constraints and be with Shen Xi without any worries, while also giving Li Zhe a lesson.
However, he had not antic.i.p.ated that Li Zhe would be hunted by someone, leading to Li Zhe’s presence at the banquet, which threw everything into chaos.
The possibility of Meng Yu being abducted by Li Zhe, and the potential consequence of the Guan family having no heir, left Guan Lei deeply perturbed.
As for his and Shen Xi’s child, Guan Lei had already decided. They would take
Shen Xi’s family name; their child would undoubtedly be much happier whether they were with the Shen family or the Lu family than with the Guan family.
Meng Yu was shocked by Guan Lei’s words. He had not expected that Guan Lei had brought him to the Guan family for this reason. Guan Lei was actually willing to give up his inheritance rights in the Guan family.
Guan Yi furrowed his brows. He was fine with Meng Yu returning to the Guan family, but having Meng Yu’s child inherit the Guan family was bound to meet resistance from the clan.
Li Zhe exploded in anger. “Guan Lei, what nonsense are you talking about? Ah Yu has already agreed to be with me. What are you planning here? I’m telling you, I don’t agree!’
Hearing Li Zhe’s words, Guan Yi slammed the cup he was holding onto the ground at Li Zhe’s feet, startling Meng Yu, who hurriedly s.h.i.+elded Li Zhe.
Meng Yu’s brows furrowed, and he looked at Guan Yi with displeasure. “Old
Master Guan, he’s mine, so please calm down.”
Guan Yi was completely taken aback by Meng Yu’s words, trembling as he questioned, “Ah Yu, do you… do you know what you’re saying?”
Meng Yu looked firmly at Guan Yi and said, “l know exactly what I’m saying. I’ve decided to be with Li Zhe, so when I say he’s mine, there’s nothing wrong with it.”
Hearing Meng Yu’s defense of him, Li Zhe could not contain his happiness.
Guan Lei, on the other hand, wore a regretful expression as he asked Meng Yu, “Meng Yu, won’t you reconsider? There are many girls out there with different looks—beautiful, intelligent, cute, graceful. You can have your pick.”
Meng Yu did not mince words as he turned to Guan Lei and smiled. “I’ll return those words to you. Give up on Shen Xi and choose one of the girls outside.” Guan Lei nodded at Meng Yu with a smile and remained silent.
It was truly a miscalculation; he had unintentionally paved the way for Li Zhe.
Guan Yi looked at Meng Yu, trying to dissuade him earnestly, “Ah Yu, you shouldn’t make such an unconventional choice. Even if you don’t think about yourself, think about Li Zhe. Li Industries will never allow Li Zhe to be with you.”
Guan Yi knew that Meng Yu would not yield to him, so he directed his efforts toward Li Zhe instead. Meng Yu e s expression turned serious.
Li Zhe cursed in his heart. Guan Yi was using him to sway Meng Yu. Now that he finally had Meng Yu, he would not give up.
Li Zhe exclaimed loudly, “Ah Yu, don’t worry about my family. After all, in this lifetime, 1 want to be with you. I’m already thirty-three, more than halfway through my life, and there are no young ladies who like me anymore. If you don’t want to be with me, I’ll shave my head and become a monk at the temple. ”
Li Zhe firmly held Meng Yu’s hand, determined not to let Meng Yu give in.
Meng Yu returned the grip and smiled as he addressed Guan Yi, “Old Master Guan, I’ve made up my mind to be with Li Zhe. That won’t change, so don’t think about changing my mind.”
Guan Lei, feeling somewhat regretful, suddenly spoke up, “Meng Yu, how about considering having a surrogate child overseas?”
“Shut up!” Guan Yi shouted. He felt a pounding headache, as if he were about to meet his ancestors in the afterlife.
“Is the matter settled? I want to get back to the party,” Guan Lei said. He could not care less if Guan Yi were dead or alive..
