Ephemeral clouds and works

Chapter 72: Temporary Refuge Abroad

    

uld he possibly become a male consort for such an ugly princessThe Emperor, valuing talent, would certainly not let those who served him become male concubines for his sister. He directly refused Xian..."Alright, keep quiet! That maid from the Wei family was in the room next door at the time. She must have guessed something. For now, just lay low and wait a year or two. Then we can settle accounts with the Wei family."

Yang Jun glared at his wife, feeling very displeased. If not for his own short-sighted wife, his son's situation would not be so embarrassing.

"...I got it!"

Pu Li reluctantly replied.

"Ziyi, come to the study with me. I have something to tell you."

Yang Jun said to his son.

Yang Ziyi immediately stood up and followed his father toward the study.

After Yang's father went in, he leaned back on the pearwood chair and raised his hand to rub his temples.

"Dad, this time it was my carelessness that gave others an opportunity..."

Yang Ziyi bowed her head and apologized.

"No wonder, you're still too young. How could you possibly compete with the old fox from the Wei family"

Yang Jun put down his hand and said.

"You are my only son, and you have always done very well under my careful guidance. This time, because I did not clearly express my stance on the Zhao family's engagement, you were unable to directly reject the advances of the Wei family's daughter. I was also wrong."

Zhao Xianrou meets all the conditions for a political marriage, but she is not Zhao Fenglin's biological daughter after all. Moreover, according to my investigation, her biological parents are also ordinary citizens. There is bound to be times when she doesn't understand the finer points, which would be detrimental to your future path.

As for Zhao Fenglin's biological daughter, her achievements seem quite good now, but there isn't anything particularly outstanding about her. If you were to marry her, she might not necessarily become your virtuous wife after all. After all, the young lady wasn't raised by the family from a young age. I don't want to wrong you.

After hearing his father's words, Yang Ziyi's expression visibly improved. He then spoke:

"Dad, I understand your dilemma, and I know you always want the best for me. So, within my capabilities, I also want to help you."

Because the Zhao family had the incident of switching babies, and in uncertain circumstances about whether their engagement would continue, the Wei family was also a good choice, so I didn't stop Wei Xinyi from approaching. I just kept an appropriate distance, but as a result, they took advantage of it...

Yang Ziyixiao also explained himself.

"I know, in the future, if you have anything, please discuss it with me and don't act without authorization."

Yes, father.

Yang Zixie immediately nodded.

"I called you over because I'm preparing to send you abroad to study. Because of the situation with Zhao Xianrou, it's no longer suitable for you to stay in China."

This is the decision Yang Jun made after considering it.

After all, even if his son is innocent, he has made a mistake. If he still flaunts himself and attends university in Shanghai, wouldn't that be poking Zhao Fenglin's sore spot His adopted daughter actively chose to go abroad, so he couldn't possibly not have some reaction.

Yang Ziyi clenched his fists after hearing this, then nodded after a long silence.

"Ziyixing, the most important thing right now is to prevent the Zhao family from making a big fuss out of this. It won't be good for you, me, or the Yang family. Wait until things cool down and settle, then come back. Just consider it as going abroad to polish yourself."

Mr. Yang patiently explained.

"Dad, I understand what you mean. We have to give the Zhao family an explanation no matter what! Even if I go abroad, I won't relax. Besides, the environment abroad is more relaxed, and maybe I can do more there."

Yang Ziyi is still very ambitious, otherwise he wouldn't let his family arrange his marriage. After all, he's an eighteen-year-old boy who can also have youthful feelings.

He also understood very well the reason his father chose the Zhao family. Zhao Fenglin was in business, while his own Yue family was involved in politics. It was a strong alliance, so the Zhao family had developed well over the past decade.

This also caused his father to be unable to simply suppress the situation after the incident. Firstly, the adopted daughter was innocent and caught in the crossfire. Secondly, they were not without influence. Taken together, they had to make concessions.

After talking it over, they set a specific date for their trip abroad that same day.

Half a month later, Yang Zixie left Shanghai and completely disappeared from the upper circles of the city. Everyone keenly sensed something was wrong, but several companions who were close to Yang Zixie couldn't find out any specific information.

Then, Wei Xinyi had an accident, her facial features were disfigured in a car accident, and she was sent abroad for treatment by her family.

Zhao Xianrou also appeared in the circle for a short time, and said goodbye to her close girlfriends, saying that she was going abroad to study business management.

"Qianrou, didn't you get into the best university in Shanghai Why are you going abroad now"

My bestie straight up asked me.

Zhao Xianrou didn't say anything, just smiled wryly, then immediately changed the subject.

"It's more convenient for me to shop in France, and if there's anything you like, I can bring it back for you."

After Zhao Xianrou left the small cafe, another girl spoke up.

"Xiao Xin, you really stir up trouble where there is none! Zhao Xianrou clearly wants to avoid that legitimate Miss Zhao. They are the same age, and if they were both studying in Modu, wouldn't it be awkward"

If the other party were not as soft and delicate, perhaps she could be a foil to Zhao Xianrou. But looking at Zhao Xianrou's attitude today, I feel that the other person is definitely not easy to deal with either. Since they have the support of their biological parents, she naturally wants to avoid their edge.

At this point, going abroad could earn her the favor of her adoptive parents, and she wouldn't have to return to her biological parents. She could continue enjoying all the benefits provided by the Zhao family openly and legitimately. What a great opportunity!

The girl talked at length, and Xiaoxin, as the other girl was called, suddenly understood.

You don't know, because of the Zhao family's mistaken baby incident, many families have secretly done paternity tests in private, afraid of being used by others as a scapegoat. Luckily, my dad and I are carved from the same mold, otherwise, I wouldn't escape the fate of being blood tested either.

Xiaoxin complained.

You said Zhao Xianrou went abroad, didn't you Was she chasing Yang Ziyi He also went abroad.

I heard that he might have gone to America.

"Xiaorou just said she was going to France."

"It doesn't matter, they are all abroad anyway. If I want to meet them, they'll find a way."

Has anyone here seen Wei Xinyi I haven't seen her since the incident happened.

"Hearing that his face was ruined, he definitely wouldn't dare to show himself."

Moments later, the conversation had veered off into completely different territory.

Zhou Mengyu accompanied Zhao Xianrou abroad, completed all the admission procedures, settled her accommodation, and took care of everything. Afterward, she accompanied her to find the best local psychologist.

After one course of treatment, Zhao Jianrou's mood had improved significantly. Her complexion was rosy, and her cheeks were plump. Her mental state had recovered very well, so she urged Zhou Mengyu to return home.

"Mom, I've already adapted to life here, you don't have to stay with me anymore."

I don't trust anyone else, I guess I'll just stay with you until the end of this semester.

"Mom, since I left that uncomfortable environment, I've been feeling much better. I'll leave the rest to time!"

You can't leave your father alone in the country. If you miss me, you can come see me anytime. I also want to learn to be independent.

In the end, Zhou Mengyu was persuaded and flew back home the next day.ed the child. According to Rodeman family tradition, she underwent various tonics and allowed Rodeman to circulate his family's martial arts through her belly, hoping to give birth to a strong baby.Bu...
