Rebirth of the Heavenly Empress

Chapter 438: Miss Su is Back!

“These people…” Old Master Chu tapped his fingers on the table, his gaze unreadable.” Next time, come directly to the Chu Family if there’s anything. At least the Chu Family has Young Master Yu’s protective array so no one will eavesdrop.”

Ever since Grandpa Yu died, Father Yu had become more mature than before. However, at this moment, he really couldn’t help but ask, “Old Master Chu, do you know why these people came to Green City?”

More than a year ago—when Grandpa Yu mysteriously disappeared and only returned with a corpse, Father Yu felt that something was wrong.

He knew that Grandpa Yu and the elders were hiding something from him.

However, he didn’t care. He believed that Grandpa Yu must have his reasons.

It’s just that… it was different now. He was not Old Master Chu. He had at least been in the International Association before. Although it was a short while, he knew that there was another type of person in the world.

The group in Green City was obviously those people.

Old Master Chu’s gaze wavered. “This happened ten years ago. It was also when Master Yu first came to Green City. A purple-tint gold badge saved our entire city.”

“Master Yu?” Father Yu’s eyes lit up. “Since Master Yu can save us, let’s go find Master Yu…”

“I know what you want to say.” Old Master Chu shook his head. “But you have to remember that Master Yu is not from Green City. Back then, he came here by chance to help us, but it is impossible for him to help us forever. You also know that Master Yu is not an ordinary person.”

The two of them talked for a long time, but there was no conclusion.

Old Master Chu’s distress signal to the capital was also stopped midway.

“The Yu Family only has such a big business. It doesn’t matter if we give it to those people. Xiangyang is in the International Association. He still has a long way to go.” Father Yu walked towards the door. “But I won’t sit back and do nothing about the Su Family.”

…

When Father Yu returned to the Yu Family, he realized that the elders who had always been in the top three were all sitting at the meeting table.

“Elders, why did you suddenly…?” Father Yu wanted to ask why the elders suddenly appeared here. However, the moment he entered the house, he saw Yu Xiangyang who was dragging a chair and sitting at the end of the table.

Although Yu Xiangyang was smiling, there was no hint of a smile on his face.

He slowly walked to Father Yu’s side. “Father… to dismiss the Yu Family and to suddenly close the medicinal shop and the auction house…? Since the elders don’t dare to say it, tell me, what exactly happened?”

Father Yu was stunned for a moment before his expression changed. His voice trembled. “Xiangyang, why are you suddenly back? Aren’t you at the International Association?”

Yu Xiangyang furrowed his brows. “What exactly happened? Qingqing and I had something to do here so we came back together…”

“What? Miss Su is back?!” Father Yu’s face turned even paler. He grabbed Yu Xiangyang’s neck. “Where did she go?”

“To the Su Residences, of course.” Yu Xiangyang furrowed his brows, not quite understanding Father Yu’s reaction.

“The Su Family?” Father Yu took a step back unsteadily before pulling Yu Xiangyang out. “Hurry, Xiangyang, contact Miss Su. We can’t go back to the Su Family now!”

Yu Xiangyang frowned. He didn’t know what had happened, but he still called Su Huiqing.

Luckily, Su Huiqing knew that there were not many people in the Su Family. It was basically an empty house so she went to Yizhong to see the teacher first. Thus, she had yet to reach the Su Family. When Father Yu heard this news, he finally heaved a sigh of relief.

Su Huiqing frowned slightly when she received Yu Xiangyang’s call.

She was currently on a remote country road and was walking towards the city when the Yu Family arrived.

At the turn of this road, a group of young men suddenly stopped her. They seemed to have just gone through a long journey.

They all looked travel-worn. When a girl saw Su Huiqing, her eyes lit up. “Can you lend us your phone to make a call?”

The person who spoke next was a young man about the same age as Su Huiqing. He wore a camel-colored coat and looked much neater and tidier than others. His face also had the aura of a scholar. “Sorry, classmate. We are students from Capital University. We came here for a holiday during the winter break. We just came down from a nearby mountain for some reason and walked for two days and two nights before arriving here. There was no signal on our cell phone. We asked a few people, but we couldn’t successfully answer the call from the capital…”

How could an ordinary student be so energetic after traveling for two days and two nights?

Su Huiqing obviously didn’t believe him, but her eyes remained calm. She didn’t take out her phone from her pocket but threw a walkie-talkie to him.

The transceiver in the International Association was made of special plastic. It was not too big and weighed no different from a coin.

It was almost half the size of an ordinary smartphone.

Moreover, it made use of buttons. It looked like an old phone that had been outdated for a long time. However, there was a significant difference. This transceiver only had a number key and a call key. There was nothing else.

Upon seeing this cell phone, the girl—who had spoken earlier—scoffed. “Young Master Tong, don’t waste your time on her. It’s such an old cell phone. We don’t even know if it has reception…”
