760 The Life We Wanted

"I just got home…"Wang Yu quickly replied.

"Oh, you are here too…" Wang Yu's father turned his head and saw Mu ZI Xian and waved towards her.

Mu Zi Xian stood there awkwardly as she was not sure how to address Wang Yu's father.

According to tradition, Mu Zi Xian was supposed to call Wang Yu's father, "Father". However, when they met the previous time, things did not turn out so well. Wang Yu's father also did not take the initiative to recognise Mu Zi Xian as his daughter-in-law. Therefore, Mu Zi Xian was left in a bind.

"Quick take a seat. Oh no, I have yet to prepare a red packet…" Wang Yu's father scratched his head and said absentmindedly.

At this moment, Wang Yu's mother took a step forward and kicked Wang Yu's father chair against the wall.

"Aihua, don't make a scene. The children are watching!" Wang Yu's father face turned red with embarrassment as he whispered.

"You also know the children are here? You are almost 50 and yet still play games all day. Do you not feel any shame?" Wang Yu's mum was extremely agitated. However, she still restrained her anger and left her husband some face.

Needless to say, for those who are married or for those who are attached (For those who are single, please pardon my joke, hehehe), everyone knows that women cannot stand the concept of online gaming. This is especially so for those hardcore gamer husbands. Women who can restrain their anger when faced with such a scenario are really few and far between.

"Hey, I am just playing casually. If you really have a problem with that, talk with me in private. Save me some face, would you?" Wang Yu's father took a glance at Mu Zi Xian.

"Hmph!" Wang Yu's mother sighed helplessly and gestured to everyone, "Come, all take a seat."

Everyone was silent as they had just witnessed Wang Yu's parents quarreling like kindergarten children. Mu Zi Xian was even stunned as she saw the authority that Wang Yu's mother wielded.

Seems like Wang Yu had inherited his temperament from his mother…

Chinese families usually discussed most things over dinner. Wang Yu and his mother had not seen each other for quite a while so they had a lot to catch up on.

"Iron Bull ah, where have you been these days? What have you been eating? What have you been wearing? Are you living well enough…?"

Wang Yu's mother shot out a series of consecutive questions.

Wang Yu replied to all her questions comprehensively, "I went to a small city. All my clothing and meals are settled by my wife. Although money is constantly tight, I am actually more comfortable then…"

"Sigh…" When Wang Yu's mother heard his answer, she sighed thoughtfully and asked Wang Yu's father, "You know this lady?"

When Wang Yu's father entered the dining hall, he had waved towards Mu Zi Xian. Wang Yu's mother had caught sight of the cordial exchange between them.

"Well, this lady is not too bad, as long as our son is happy." Wang Yu's father said with a wide smile.

Wang Yu was secretly celebrating within his heart. Although Wang Yu's mother spoke the most in the house, the final say in matters rested on Wang Yu's father, Old Wang. Since Old Wang had already stated his stand, Wang Yu's mother would definitely not challenge him on it.

"I also have seen sister-in-law! Sister-in-law is great!" Wang Fei interjected in.

Wang Yu's mother asked quizzically, "When did the both of you meet her, even before I did?"Find authorized novels in Webnovel，faster updates, better experience，Please click www.novelhall.comfor visiting.

"That's because you don't play games…" Old Wang replied.

"Saw her in the game?" Wang Yu's mother was reignited. Time and time again, the topic of games kept coming up.

"Well, you probably do not know. The game is really fun. It is so similar to real life," Old Wang claimed boldly.

"…" Wang Yu's mother glared at Old Wang and he quickly stopped talking.

Wang Yu's mother turned towards Mu Zi Xian and asked, "Little Mu, is it?"

Mu Zi Xian quickly replied, "Heh… You can call me Xian Er."

"Xian Er, my eldest son is under your care. Where exactly do you live?" Wang Yu's mother further questioned.

Mu Zi Xian said truthfully, "My parents live in the city… They are government employees."

Wang Yu knew the situation regarding Mu Zi Xian's family. Compared to the Wang Family, Mu Zi Xian's family was much more ordinary.

"Oh…" Wang Yu's mother nodded and said, "What do you do for a living?"

"…" Wang Yu's mother sentence stunned Mu Zi Xian. She did not have an appropriate reply to answer Wang Yu's mother.

From their previous exchanges, it was clear that Wang Yu's mother was highly against games. The relationship between a mother and a daughter-in-law was always a delicate affair. Coupled with the incident when Mu Zi Xian and Wang Yu eloped, there was already some animosity between them. If Mu Zi Xian were to tell Wang Yu's mother that she played the game for a living… She already knew the outcome that was to follow.

However, in this case, was it appropriate to lie?

Mu Zi Xian thought for a moment and garnered the courage to reply, "I open a grocery store in-game. I can be considered as a professional player."

"Game again?" Wang Yu mother's tone turned indifferent and continue her questioning, "How about Iron Bull? He cannot possibly be leeching off you, is he?"

Wang Yu quickly replied, "I also play the game! I am really powerful!"

"Ka cha!" Just as Wang Yu spoke, the pair of chopsticks in Wang Yu's mother was broken into two instantly. Wang Yu's mother spoke in a fitful of anger, "Do you still remember your identity?"

"…" Wang Yu was stone-faced.

Wang Yu's mother asked, "You are the successor to the Wang Clan, yet look at you now… Spending your days immersed in games. Do you think this is appropriate?"

Wang Fei also lowered his head.

"As the head of the Wang Clan, getting addicted to the game and not focusing on your studies, who do you think you are letting down?"

Wang Yu's father placed his tableware down.

Indeed, being the future hope of the martial arts world, Wang Yu shouldered the responsibility of continuing down the martial arts lineage. Even if Wang Yu was not yet ready or qualified to teach the generation, at the very least he should be working hard on his individual skills. Regarding things like money, the Wang Clan certainly did not lack any of it.

In Wang Yu's mother, Wang Yu was still a playful and immature kid. He had absolutely let down his ancestors in her eyes… This was also why she was so opposed to Wang Yu's father indulging in games.

"Mother, you are wrong." Just as Wang Yu's mother was about to continue her scolding, Wang Yu spoke up.

"What did I say wrongly?" Wang Yu's mother saw that Wang Yu had the gall to inject her and was furious.

Wang Yu said, "I know myself. I am not a tool and I think I should be entitled to my own ideas."

"What do you know for a child like you?" Wang Yu's mother replied.

The husband and wife really had a similar way of thinking.

Wang Yu continued, "I want to live like a normal person. I do not want to carry such a heavy responsibility the moment I am born."

"But you are the Wang Clan's…"

"I know. What you might not know is that I'd rather have not been born to the Wang Family." He carried on, saying, "From the time since I could remember, I have never led the life I truly wanted to live. Learning martial arts was my everything. All of you even wanted to arrange a marriage for me. Don't you think such a person will turn out to be extremely pitiful? How am I different from a machine then?"

"This…" Wang Yu's mother said with a trembling voice, "But this was all for your own good."
