The news of the Yu Family's assets being auctioned spread like wildfire.
This was Tan Yubai's idea, and was his only way to protect the Yu Clan's assets.
On the other side, Yu Meng had been staring at the auction for a long time.
All the pain he had accumulated in the past had become the reason for Yu Meng to completely give up on him.
She would no longer hide. She would take back everything that the man had taken away. She would revive the Yu Family. She would let those who had harmed her receive their retribution.
After recovering the Yu Family's wealth, this time's auction was extremely important to Yu Meng.
But with her current ability, if she were to compete for a rare share of the shares with a bunch of Investor s, she would definitely be instantly reduced to nothing.
If a single piece of clothing was enough to cover a month's living expenses, then how could she compete for it?
Since things had come to this …
At the Golden Fragrance Flower Garden.
Yu Meng held her hands together as she paced back and forth in front of Villa Number 1, not having the courage to enter for a long time.
She grew up here, but hasn't been back here for more than a year.
Zhang Rao was sweeping the leaves in the courtyard. When he raised his head, he saw a very familiar figure at the entrance. He put down his tools and walked out. His eyes lit up. "Eldest Miss!"
Yu Meng was slightly taken aback before she forced out an awkward smile, "Uncle Zhang, long time no see."
Zhang Rong and Yu Meng's father were around the same age. They had followed the Old Master for most of their lives, claiming to be stewards of the Yu Family. In reality, Yu Meng had always treated him as her real uncle.
"Why didn't you come back? Come quickly, Master will be very happy to see you! "
Yu Meng backed off a little. She wanted to find an excuse to leave, but Zhang Rong had already grabbed her arm and was walking into the courtyard.
"Uncle Zhang..." Yu Meng felt weak inside, she didn't dare to face that stubborn old man in the room.
Thinking back to a year ago, right here, he angrily slapped her in the face, saying that he, Yu Zheng, had never had a daughter like Yu Meng in his entire life.
As for Yu Meng, she had no right to feel wronged. After all, her father had single-handedly created the Yu's Group, and they were destroyed by her just like that.
Yu Meng stood in the yard, not daring to enter for a long time.
Zhang Rong smiled kindly. "It's good that you're back, Eldest Miss."
Yu Meng looked at Zhang Rao and said, "But my dad, he …"
"Don't you know the old tutor's personality? He's always like that."
Yu Meng lowered her head. There was actually another reason why she didn't dare to enter.
If that old man had seen the news that had flooded the Internet like a storm, and if he knew that his daughter had such a bad reputation, he would probably curse her for losing her Yu family members.
"Forget it."
As Yu Meng hesitated, the door suddenly opened.
Yu Zheng stood at the door with a domineering look on his face, and frowned deeply.
"If you want to come in, then come in. If you don't want to come in, then hurry up and leave. You don't have the character of a Yu Family member at all!"
Yu Family members were the only ones that kept their mouths shut. Yu Meng really didn't like the idea that she was a Yu Family member.
"Dad …"
Yu Meng lowered her head and spoke softly. Following Yu Zheng into the living room, the woman was also there.
When Shen Bijun saw Yu Meng, she went up to her enthusiastically and sized her up from top to bottom.
"Little Meng is back! This is great, it has already been over a year, you really made me think of dying! "
Yu Meng's face was expressionless as she coldly walked around Shen Bijun and sat on the sofa, facing her.
Yu Zheng's expression was solemn: "I did not care about you for a year, but you did not raise a single hair on your head? To act this way when meeting an elder? "
It was exactly the same as the one in his memory. It was stubborn and strict. It would always look like this.
Even if they hadn't seen each other for a year, he hadn't changed at all.
Yu Meng could only bear with it and stand up to greet Shen Bijun.
"Hello, Aunt Shen."
When Yu Meng was three years old, she married Shen Bijun and gave birth to her a son the moment she entered the family.
Shen Bijun smiled and held Yu Meng's hand. The fine lines on the corner of her eyes were filled with the marks of time, but she was unlike Uncle Zhang who had the benevolence of an elder.
"Alright, you two have a good chat. I'll make you two a pot of tea."
As he said that, he turned around and headed towards the kitchen area. The father and daughter pair were the only ones left in the living room.
"Dad …"
Yu Meng could no longer hold it in as she asked in a trembling voice, "Are you alright?"
Yu Zheng rested on the sofa near the window. A few words came out of his mouth, "He won't die anytime soon."
Yu Meng was annoyed that Yu Zheng would keep his death on her lips. She frowned, feeling depressed in her heart, but she did not know what to say.
"Alright, tell me. What business do you have with me this time?"
"I …" Yu Meng found it difficult to speak.
"Are you really my, Yu Zheng's, daughter? Is saying a few words so difficult? It's precisely because of your soft personality that you ended up like this!"
Yu Meng hung her head and gritted her teeth, not saying a word.
"If you were a bit more powerful, would Tan Yubai have bullied you to such an extent?!"
As Yu Meng listened, she felt more and more wronged.
In Yu Zheng's hands, she could never be cared for as a father. On the contrary, she was often blamed.
"I divorced him."
Yu Zheng was startled for a few seconds, but quickly recovered his composure: "We should have left long ago! That ungrateful bastard did not inherit his father's personality at all. "
"Du Qinyi wants to auction the shares they bought in the Yu's." Yu Meng continued, "Next Tuesday, all of the industry's Investor will be present."
Yu Zheng did not seem too surprised, he guessed that he had already seen it on the news a long time ago.
"What do you mean?" Yu Zheng sat up straight: "You plan to buy the shares from the auction?"
Yu Meng nodded.
Yu Zheng laughed: "Where did you get the money from?"
Yu Meng bit her lower lip. She had made a huge decision before she said those words.
"Dad, I came here today to borrow money from you. If I can buy the company back, then I won't take all the shares. I will also continue to work for the company, just treat it as me paying you back."
"Yu Meng, when your mother named you 'Dream', she didn't make you daydream. The company is gone, and I'm just a shitty old man. All I have is this house. "
Yu Meng was silent. Of course she knew this.
After Yu Zheng finished speaking, he finally understood the true purpose of Yu Meng's visit today.
He was stunned for a while, and then asked doubtfully, "What? You want me to mortgage the real estate to lend you money?"
Yu Meng's voice trembled, "As long as it is only one year, you will still be living here. However, you will have lost the right to belong to me. One year later, the loan will be repaid, and the house will still be yours."
She was afraid that Yu Zheng would fly into a rage and the scene of his being kicked out of his house a year ago would appear again. But she had to put everything on the line, because it was her only option.
Never would he have thought that Yu Zheng was exceptionally calm.
The old man sat there calmly, his gaze focused on Yu Meng.
"And if you fail." Yu Zheng was very calm: "Then wouldn't that mean I won't even have my old age house?"
Yu Meng remained silent.
After a long while, she replied hoarsely, "I'm sorry. I've never thought about what I should do if I fail."
Because she didn't leave him with a way out, she subconsciously tied him and her father together, leaving him with no way out.
She finally understood that she was too selfish.
Yu Meng stood up. She no longer had any hope in this matter. She wanted to leave, but the man's steady voice rang out from behind her.
"I promise you."
