322 Not Allowed To Be Together
Yu Bing followed Duan Mei into the house. Yu Wu was lying on the sofa reading a novel when he heard the door open.
He knew that Yu Bing had already returned to Hang City. Although he had already found out from Yu Pan and his mother that Yu Bing was no longer that thin and weak, he was still a little surprised to see her in person.
However, after the surprise, he didn’t express anything else. When Yu Wu saw the things in Yu Bing’s hand, he was interested and sat up. “What good things did you bring back? Do you have jam?”
Yu Bing placed her luggage in the corner of the sofa for the time being before placing the pastries on the coffee table. “I bought two pounds of mung bean cake.”
!!
When Yu Wu heard this, he shouted, “Yu Bing, you’re too stingy! You only come back once a year, but you only bought two pounds of mung bean cake!”
Duan Mei went forward and realized that there was really only mung bean cake. Thinking of how Yu Yan gave them jam and money, Duan Mei’s expression immediately became even uglier. “Yu Bing, is this how you show your filial piety to your parents?”
Yu Bing lowered her eyes and said helplessly, “I have no choice. The factory hasn’t paid off its debt yet and I bought these two pounds of mung bean cake with my savings.”
At this moment, the door opened again. Yu Pan and Mr. Yu had returned home.
Yu Bing greeted obediently, “Dad, Sister.”
Mr. Yu was stunned for a moment because Yu Bing was clearly much healthier. Then, he nodded.
Yu Pan replied aloofly. When she realized that there was something on the coffee table, she also walked forward happily. When she found out that Yu Bing had bought an ordinary snack, she couldn’t help but roll her eyes at Yu Bing. “You’re the factory director, yet you brought back such cheap goods.”
Yu Wu also chimed in, “That’s right. Yu Bing, go to the supply company and buy some good things.”
Yu Bing only listened and didn’t say anything. This was her biological family. After everyone saw her, they were not concerned about how she was doing in the countryside, but were thinking about what else she could provide them with to continue parasitizing.
Mr. Yu saw Yu Bing’s smile fade. Although he was also very dissatisfied, he thought about how he still had to ask Yu Bing some questions later, so he felt that it wasn’t good to disappoint her yet. Hence, he berated Yu Wu and Yu Pan and said to Yu Bing, “Yu Bing, your brothers and sisters speak without thinking. Ignore them. It’s good that you’re back.”
Yu Bing didn’t say anything else, but she sneered inwardly. From these words, he was basically distinguishing Yu Bing from them.
Yu Bing lowered her eyes and acted like she was a little down. “Dad, Mom, you both know the situation of our factory. We’re on a business trip, but we even have to pay for travel expenses ourselves first and see how to get reimbursements after we get back.”
Duan Mei was speechless when she heard this and glared at Yu Bing. “Stupid! All you ever do is do free labor!”
When Mr. Yu heard this, he wavered a little. It had been almost half a year since the factory opened, but it still wasn’t profitable. If the food factory closed down in the future, without Yu Bing’s current position, the Yao family most likely wouldn’t fancy Yu Bing anymore.
At the thought of this, he asked gently, “Yu Bing, you’re not young anymore. Do you have a boyfriend?”
Mr. Yu decided to understand the situation first. What if that bumpkin’s family was quite well-off and could fork out more betrothal money?
Yu Bing knew that he was asking about Xiao Sheng, so she feigned innocence and replied, “No.”
Duan Mei couldn’t hold it in anymore and said, “If not, how could you have held hands with him?!”
Yu Bing frowned. When had she ever held hands with Xiao Sheng?
“Who spread the rumor about me?” Yu Bing asked despite knowing the answer.
Yu Pan felt a little guilty, but she remembered that she had forgotten to mention something else, so she immediately perked up and said, “I even saw you twist his arm. If you guys weren’t together, why would you guys be so intimate?”
Yu Bing paused for a moment. She really didn’t know how to explain this.
When Mr. Yu and Duan Mei saw Yu Bing’s expression, their hearts skipped a beat.
They immediately guessed that the two of them might not have officially confirmed their relationship yet.
Mr. Yu immediately asked, “How’s Xiao Sheng’s family’s situation?”
Yu Bing planned to beat her parents at their own game and use Xiao Sheng to completely destroy her parents’ desire to let her marry into the Yao family. Hence, she replied obediently, “His parents are no longer around and he’s raising his siblings alone. They’re all adorable children around the age of 10. Unfortunately, his sister has poor eyesight, so he wants to save money to treat her eyes.”
Mr. Yu and Duan Mei exchanged looks and said sternly, “Yu Bing, I’m warning you, you’re not allowed to be with him!”
