Ch 93 – Caught In A Dilemma
“I have spoken on the phone with my grandma. Grandma told me that I don’t need to visit her, and that she’ll take care of herself, and for me to focus on properly serving you.” Said Nami in a low voice.
“How could this be? Let’s go, I’ll drive. We’ll go to your house so I can meet your grandmother.” Lei Yu smiled while patting Nami’s shoulder.
“There’s no need young master, I’ve already given a portion of money that you gave me to my grandma’s bank account, presently she should be fine.” Nami appeared to be concerned about something, wanting to refuse him yet unsure how to say it.
“Nami, did you know?” Lei Yu looked into the sky and sighed, “I’ve never experienced a complete family. Even if I used to be the Lei family’s second young master, I’ve never known what my own mother looks like. And due to some reasons related to our clan, I was forced to leave the Lei family and start my independent life. Before, I used to really hate my family; I hated their cruelty towards me; I hated their limited secular vision. But now I’m not hateful, even though I won’t return to the Lei family, I won’t hate them, this is my own punishment. Because of some situations, my grandfather lost his right to live. For this familial tie, I will do whatever it takes to find the murderer. Even though right now I don’t have the ability, I will never give up. Therefore Nami, you must cherish the family members you have. If you ever lose this familial love, even if you regret it later on, it will become the most painful thing in your life.
Nami was in tears. Lei Yu’s words had made her think about her parents whom had passed away. Gently nodding her head, the two went to buy some simple gifts and drove in the direction of where Nami’s grandmother lived.
After seeing Nami’s grandmother, Lei Yu finally understood some things her grandmother had mentioned. And this also made Lei Yu understand why Nami served him so whole heartedly.
Nami’s parents had passed away a long time ago. Back then, the couple worked together in the same hotel. Nami’s mother was eventually noticed by a manager who made continued sexual advances. The stress and pressure her mother received eventually lead her to jump off a building to commit suicide. As for her father, he found out the cause and went after the manager. Unfortunately, her father could not take him on because the manager wasn’t an ordinary person. Thus, Nami’s parents passed away. It was only a few years ago that Nami’s grandmother told her the story regarding her parents. Nami had inherited her mother’s beauty, becoming lovely and attractive. She found the hotel including the murderer who killed her parents, but didn’t get any chances to make her move. Lei Yu’s unintentional appearance killed the murderer that Nami was unable to take on.
“So this was the reason you’ve been willing to follow me around?” Lei Yu drove the car in the direction of the hotel.
“I’m sorry young master, for keeping this from you.”
“It’s not a problem; all bastards should receive their punishment. Although I’m not the jury, but the least I can do is becoming the executioner. It’s pretty much the same purpose on why I’m here in the Kou country.
Cui Ying Ying was sitting in Lei Yu’s room, drumming her cheeks. “Where did you two go off to enjoy your time? Leaving me to attend the celebratory dinner while you guys didn’t show up.”
“Ying Ying, don’t be angry, we went to see Nami’s grandmother.” Smiled Lei Yu.
“Whatever, I’m not saying anything more. I drank a little too much tonight so I’m heading to sleep, construction will re-open tomorrow so I have to go there a bit early. If you have nothing to do tomorrow, go look at the house. I told them to send two interior designers there tomorrow so go meet with them. Design the house according to your own tastes so it will look better.” Cui Ying Ying yawned, forcefully stretched a bit before going back to her room.
Everything seemed to be going in accordance with the original plan; the construction successfully started; Meng Yu Corporation fulfilled Lei Yu’s commitment, they organized several momentous solo concerts. And some of these concerts even had the sponsorship of government officials. The artists under Lei Yu started creating their most glorious time of their careers; the amount of brands wanting representation and movie roles to star in were in a simply horrifying degree.
Properties being organized and sold before they were even built were already against the rules. But within this huge project, no one dared to intervene anymore, especially when the people of the Kou country were attaching great importance to its completion. The Yamaguchi-gumi was unable to find any more legitimate ways to interfere with it so they had to start thinking of underhanded methods.
Lei Yu’s daily schedule was very disciplined so to find some hole to exploit wasn’t that easy.
