Chapter 193 – Banquet Invitation (1/2)
Chapter 193 - Banquet Invitation (Unedited)
Those soldiers that were training all looked over with a strange gaze in their eyes. Fan Hong Chang looked at those soldiers and shook his head, “Sigh, if we had a few more people like you, then our Dragon Group would become the most powerful!”
In the midst of those soldiers, one of them recognized Lei Yu and suddenly exclaimed out loud: “Isn’t that Lei Yu?!”
Lei Yu smiled and waved at him before continuing to leave the area with Fan Hong Chang.
The soldier that was greeted by Lei Yu grinned with a proud look on his face. The other soldiers beside him who didn’t know what was going on started discussing this. Some started telling the others how formidable Lei Yu was and how he got to be so strong etc. After listening to the discussions, those once clueless soldiers started worshipping Lei Yu as well.
After arriving at Dragon Group headquarters, Lei Yu wasn’t here just to see his former instructor Fan Hong Chang and his fellow brothers; there was an issue that he had to deal with. Lei Yu handed his resignation paperwork to Nuo Yi Long. Even though this wasn’t unexpected, Nuo Yi Long and others were still reluctant. With Lei Yu’s powerful strength, it would be really great if he could stay in Dragon Group permanently. Even if he doesn’t stay and just becomes a Commander in name, this will still make Dragon Group look good. But once Lei Yu decides on something, it’s really hard to make him change his mind. Nuo Yi Long and them could only reluctantly accept his resignation because forcing him was an impossibility.
After bidding his farewell to Dragon Group, Lei Yu returned home. As he neared his house, Lei Yu noticed someone appeared to be waiting there. There’s no doubt this person was here for Lei Yu, but he didn’t recognize this person at all.
Seeing Lei Yu’s car driving over, this person walked up. “Second young master, you’ve finally returned. I’ve waited here for you for almost a whole day.”
”You are…?” Hearing the way this person greeted him, Lei Yu had an inkling what this was about but he still had to ask.
“I am one of the outer members of the Lei family. The master knew you had returned so he had me invite you back for a visit. The family has prepared a banquet for you and is awaiting your participation.” This person appears to have prepared his words in advance before speaking with Lei Yu.
Lei Yu was slightly hesitant but still nodded. “I will go but I need to clean up first. You may return to the family and I will head there a bit later.”
This person was overjoyed and nodded before leaving. Previously he had heard from other family members that it would be difficult to get Lei Yu to agree to the invitation. After all, all the things that had happened in the past were witnessed by a lot of people. This person never expected Lei Yu would only slightly hesitate before agreeing.
Lei Yu took a bath before putting on a set of more decent looking clothes. Although Lei Yu was reluctant to step foot in the Lei family household again, he still agreed.
Lei Yu used to hate everyone inside the Lei family, even his own father. He was ruthlessly driven from the clan just because he didn’t have the family’s brand. Thinking about everything that had happened filled Lei Yu’s heart with grief, but over time, the hatred he felt had gradually lessen. Lei Yu hadn’t changed his mind and forgave these hypocrites; it’s just that it used to be his home. Even if it was an unhappy place, it still supported and fed him for a good amount of years. Lei Yu was merely holding onto the thought of gratitude for them.
Going there for a meal was just to express his thanks to the family and had no other meanings.
The time he was in the Kou country, Lei Yu had agreed to his father’s request that after he had found his mother and avenged his grandfather, he would then return to the Lei family. But Lei Yu hadn’t really intended to do this. Getting vengeance for his grandfather was a must, and finding his mother had always been Lei Yu’s dream. Both of these issues had to be accomplished. Having Lei Yu accept his family once again seemed a bit too difficult to do. Lei Yu only said those words of rejoining the family because he didn’t want his father to keep on bothering him.
