"I'll go. You stay and guard the clan."
"Just make sure you prepare what I asked for!"
How could he not know Yu Luomian's capabilities?
This mission could not be taken lightly!
Yu Luomian's expression darkened.
His eldest brother had clearly made up his mind long ago.
Yu Yuanzhen acted swiftly and decisively.
After making his decision, he arrived at Shrek Academy the very next day.
"Xiaogang, it has been a long time."
Yu Yuanzhen's voice was low and resonant, carrying neither reproach nor concern.
Yu Xiaogang opened his mouth and forced out a single word. "Father."
Standing behind Yu Xiaogang, Liu Erlong watched the scene with mixed feelings.
She could see Yu Xiaogang's tension, as well as Yu Yuanzhen's indifference.
The main reason was that Yu Xiaogang had been far too immature when he was young, putting the clan in an impossible position and causing Yu Yuanzhen to treat him this way.
"I came to find you because I want you to take me to see Lin Chuan." Yu Yuanzhen got straight to the point, without small talk or pleasantries.
Yu Xiaogang froze for a moment, then gave a bitter smile.
As expected, he had not come for him. He had come for Lin Chuan.
"Alright."
Yu Xiaogang nodded without asking why, because he knew there was no point in asking.
No one could stop Yu Yuanzhen from doing what he wanted.
Besides, he was no longer the same as before.
His views toward the clan had changed as well.
In his eyes, there was no longer any need to prove himself.
So what if he became the greatest theorist?
With Lin Chuan standing above him now, he no longer hoped for anything.
It was enough to quietly finish his research.
He felt both relieved and somewhat resigned.
