He's My Fiancée ! : I Went Back To The Past and You !

Chapter 85: I Surrender!

"Are you crazy? Of course not! Don't you see how lovey-dovey he is with Xiao Yun?" Mrs. Yu angrily answered her husband.

Mr. Yu laughs, "Yes, yes, yes." He agreed three times. 

Seeing his husband stale answer, Mrs. Yu pout her lips, "Why are you laughing since before?"

"Then, why are you angry?" Mr. Yu answers with a question.

"These people keep audaciously making boorish speculation! How could I stay calm?" Mrs. Yu crosses her arm with a hump.

"Oh... Well, you do not need to worry, the young man beside Xiao-Lei is someone we know very well." Mr. Yu answered. 

"Hm? Our acquaintance? A young man this handsome? Why can I not remember...?" Since the afternoon when she receives the picture, Mrs. Yu had been very curious about the young man who was able to make Wang Li Lei smile other than her daughter. 

"Who?" Curiously, Mrs. Yu slide to the corner of the couch closer. 

"Your daughter!" Mr. Yu felt somehow proud to know something before his gossip-loving wife. 

"Eh?!" Mrs. Yu's eyes widened in surprise. She once again checks the picture on the phone before rubbing her chin with a mumble. "No wonder this young man is so familiar..."

"-But how? " Mrs. Yu continue to ask.

Mr. Yu scratches his head also not knowing how. "That...I don't know..."

Mrs. Yu sighs, as expected her husband isn't very good at bringing news for her.

After a few minutes, the four people sit on the dining table with a delicious-looking warm hot pot in front of them, warming their cold body.

"Mn!! Delicious!!" Xiao Yun continues to fill her plate with wonton that she likes. 

Mrs. Yu laughs and called Old Xue to bring out something. As Mrs. Yu ordered, Old Xue brought a plate of Har Gow which is Xiao Yun's favorite. "Eat slowly."

"Mn!" Xiao Yun who hadn't been eating since the morning, quickly finish the plate in a hurry. 

Xing Fu sneered in a whisper that was purposely loud to Xiao Yun. "Ah~ poor Li Lei, having such a glutton fiancee."

Xiao Yun squint her eyes toward Xing Fu who was still grinning foolishly and immediately took the boiled egg which is his favorite food before stuffing it to her mouth, as revenge. 

Xing Fu looks at his egg that was mercilessly devoured by Xiao Yun and exclaim. "Eh! Hey! You glutton!"

Xiao Yun gulps down her food with a glass of water and shrugged her shoulder. "So you do know that I am a glutton! " Swiftly, Xiao Yun reaches out her chopstick toward the meatballs on Xing Fu's plate.

Reflexively, Xing Fu pulls his plate and protect his plate like a precious treasure. "Ugh! You! Stop! I surrender, okay? Stop!"

Looking at Xing Fu's panic face, Xiao Yun snickers. Their parents burst into a laugh at the two's childish fight. 

The lively situation in the dining room that had been vacant for years once again turns cheerful. 

As they nearly reach the bottom of the hot pot, Mr. Yu put down his chopstick and ask. "Xiao Yun, what were you going to say?"

"Er..." Xiao Yun looks down toward the Azure document on her lap and braven up herself with a deep breath. "Father, Ge-Ge, please teach me business!" 

If Xiao Yun needs to get serious about studying business, she has two perfect teachers, her father, and older brother.

For many generations, Yu Family has always been very famous as a business family. They are very well-known for their good luck, good intuition, and wise way of managing their business.

That also goes the same as her father, Yu Chang Xing who is also called 'Gold-handed businessman', because his company has never lost even when taking a big risk. And Xiao Yun's older brother, Xing Fu who is very famous for his smart and quick ways of constructing business.

Wait... If she also counts Wang Li Lei... She has two teachers and an immortal that could teach her!!

"Business? Mei-Mei, are you planning on starting a business?" Xing Fu asks. 

"Yes!" Xiao Yun nods firmly and pulls out the document to the table, passing it to Mr. Yu. "Dad, I'm planning to fund this company. I have read the documents and I believe that this company has excellent potential."

Mr. Yu nods and put on his reading glasses before scanning the document in silence. After a few minutes, Mr. Yu put down the document with a serious expression. 

This time, his expression wasn't his usual expression but an expression of a businessman.

Seeing her father's expression, Xiao Yun straightens her back and also turns serious.

"Hm... This is certainly a good proposal. Everything is written with full precision and clarity. Certainly, the person who makes this proposal gave much thought and consideration. Not to mention, the company's system is very efficient!-" Mr. Yu began to ramble.

Mrs. Yu couldn't understand the rest of his words yawn. At first, she had wanted to discuss how Xiao Yun could disguise herself as a young man but after seeing how serious their talk was, she decided to retreat. "You three keep discussing, okay? I'm gonna go to sleep."

"Mn." Since Xiao Yun was immersed in her father's words, only Xing Fu could reply back while waving his hand. 

"-So, Xiao Yun, are you planning on funding this 'Azure'?" Mr. Yu went back and ask the crucial topic. 

Xiao Yun nods earnestly. "Yes" Her tone was concise and passionate.

"Why?" Mr. Yu asks. Even if it is his own precious daughter, Mr. Yu could not spoil her and thoughtlessly agree immediately to Xiao Yun's decision without knowing her reason. 

After all, a plan without a goal would only destroy the tactician. 

Xiao Yun gazes straight to her father's eyes and answered. 

"Because it is my dream and I have a goal that I need to achieve. Now that I have found a golden opportunity to reach my goal, I will not let it pass!" Xiao Yun's eyes were passionate, deep, burning with determination and ambition. 

Satisfied, Mr. Yu nods in approval. "Good! Xing Fu!"

"Yes?" Xing Fu asks. 

"Teach your little sister well! And if you have any other question, Xiao Yun, don't hold back and ask." Mr. Yu continues. 

Xing Fu nods. "I understand."

"Dad, so... you are allowing me to fund Azure?" Xiao Yun was still confused by her father's words. 

"Of course! I will send the money to your account." Mr. Yu's reply. 

Xiao Yun excitedly stood up from her chair. "Really? Really? You're not joking, right?"

"Of course not. Why would I stop my daughter from achieving her goal?" Mr. Yu pat his daughter's head softly. 

"Anyway, Xing Fu, be sure to teach your little sister properly! And Xiao Yun remember, don't ever slack off! If you do, then I would be taking over the project! I'm going back to sleep too. You two don't stay up late."

"Mn! Okay!" Xiao Yun waves her hand at her father.

Xing Fu stretches his back and pat Xiao Yun's shoulder. "Mei-Mei, I will teach you starting tomorrow. Ah!! You should also come to Yu Company, there's plenty of things for you to learn!! I guarantee you- once you graduate from my teachings, you could surely flourish!!"

Xiao Yun nods and answered. "I'll be counting on you, teacher!!"

Xing Fu laughs "I'm gonna go to sleep too now~"

Xiao Yun stood up from her chair and follows Xing Fu to her room with a tired yawn. "Me too."

As she enters her room, loud music played on her phone. Xiao  Yun quickly took her phone from her pajama's pocket and read the caller's number for a moment.

'This is... An unknown number from a foreign country?... Who could it be...?'

After a moment of hesitation and skeptical, Xiao Yun decides to answer the call. Placing her phone next to her ears, her rabbit-like sharp ears carefully hear the call. 

"Ah~! Xiao Yun?! It's me!! Are you here?"

Hearing the familiar voice, Xiao Yun answered. "Andy? Is this you?"

"Yeah! Ah, anyway, Xiao Yun I called you for something."

"Mn, what is it?"

"Yesterday, after some thought... I decided to send you your belated birthday gift. Next morning you will receive a packet- Ah! And be careful when using it, okay?"

"Hm? Be careful of using wh-"

"Ah!! My signal!! Hel-?"

The call ended in one-sidedly without a word left to say. Xiao Yun lifts her brow subconsciously and rubs her chin.

Andy's last word caught on her mind like an unsolved puzzle.

'Be careful of using it...' 

That Andy just what kind of thing he's planning to send me?

Last birthday he sent me a custom made knife, custom made arrow, custom made spear... And judging by his way of talking... Is he possibly planning to send something more dangerous...?

At the same time in a few blocks away from Yu Family residence's house--

Looking at the moon hanging on the ink-like sky, a young man open the window of his room and sat in front of it while feeling the gust of breeze blowing his black hair. His long. pale, slender fingers tap the side of the mirror in a tune in sync with his lullaby-like humming. 

The young man's gentle and warm demeanor brought the dark and cold night felt warmer than ever. Feeling the breeze that turns colder, the young man pulls the navy blue scarf and covers himself before continuing to ponder with his thoughts. 

In between the shadow of the darkroom with only the sky as the source of the light, a small fury little creature walks with its soft, quiet paws from the dark and jump up to the man's lap nimbly. 

While snuggling to his lap, the cat purred adorably as he gently brushes the cat's splendid grayish fur that felt softer like silk. 

The young man once again went back to his pondering and let out a long sigh. "Kathy, do you think, I will meet the one destined for me soon, like what grandmother says?" His tone sounded very low-spirited. 

Sensing the gloominess from the young man, the cats curl up and nuzzles her head to his large warm hand as if she was encouraging the young man. 

Seeing the adorable antics of the cat that was encouraging him, the man let out a gentle laugh. "You are right, Kathy. I can't be down! Tomorrow I will finally go back to school. I should go to sleep now." The young man slowly brings the cat down and stood up from his chair.

While gazing at the sky one again, a gentle, endearing smile paint his face.

"I hope, I could meet her sooner-"

"-My soulmate."
