Fake Husband of the Glamorous CEO-Chapter 388: Even the chickens and dogs are taken to heaven
Shencheng City.
Inside a high-end private kitchen restaurant, Yu Yue invited Lin Yue to dinner.
Accompanying them was Yu Yue’s daughter, Ye Shuting.
"This girl hasn’t caused you any trouble at the company, has she?"
Ye Shuting was no longer the naive young girl she once was. Hearing her mother’s words, she protested, "Mom, I’m my sister-in-law’s right-hand person."
Lin Yue smiled, "Shuting’s performance at the company has always been good."
"Do you hear that?" sniffed Ye Shuting.
Yu Yue smiled, "Well, that’s good."
Then, the three of them ate for a while.
There were several times Yu Yue seemed to want to say something but didn’t know how to begin.
By now, everyone generally understood the direction future developments were taking.
Both the Ye and the He families, as Offerants, had obtained their Star System Territories, with prospects for their offspring and social circles looking undeniably bright.
Yu Ling, the eldest sister, along with her husband, had also received a promise from Gu Feng that once their grandchild grew up, they, too, would move to their Star System Territory.
Yu Yue also had her own circle to take care of. Due to the Yu family’s strong influence, although she married down to Ye Xinglong, the resources of her husband’s family had always leaned towards her side.
Including her husband, now serving as the financial director at "Pangu" with treatment befitting a Deputy Hall Master, was a position and level which Yu Yue had secured for him.
Even at present, the growth of Yu Yue’s husband’s family was reliant on the influence of Yu Yue’s family. 𝒇𝙧𝙚𝓮𝔀𝓮𝒃𝙣𝓸𝒗𝒆𝒍.𝙘𝒐𝒎
This meant that in the face of this grand trend of migratory development, Yu Yue still needed to step up for her husband’s family and her children.
But she didn’t know how to broach the subject.
Because during this period, with the support of Gu Feng, Yu Yue’s husband’s family had received a lot of resources from the Gu Family.
Family was family, but she knew some matters should not be handled in an unseemly manner.
She had actually talked to her elder sister, Yu Ling, about this.
But Yu Ling’s stance was that Yu Yue, being married off, was not her own matter to manage, advising Yu Yue to speak to Gu Feng herself.
However, Yu Yue couldn’t get in touch with Gu Feng, who was elusive at the moment.
Her only option was to turn to Lin Yue about this matter.
Yet, when she finally met the person, she still felt at a loss for words.
Her hesitation was clearly noticed by Lin Yue.
While wiping her mouth with a napkin, Lin Yue said, "Shuting, you go out for a bit."
Ye Shuting nodded and left the table.
When only the two of them remained, Lin Yue took out two exquisite boxes from her sleeve and said, "These are two Nascent Soul Pills prepared by Gu Feng for you and your husband. Whenever you decide to leave this world, take these elixirs."
Yu Yue opened the boxes and saw the pills emitting a faint golden light. Dazzled, she immediately grasped Lin Yue’s hands, "Little Yue, thank you, really! I didn’t expect that Feng would prepare for me too, an aunt who’s married off..."
As she spoke, tears escaped Yu Yue’s eyes.
Lin Yue wiped her tears with a tissue, smiling as she said, "Feng said, you’re different. Even if you’ve married out, you’ve watched him grow to where he is today. There’s no need for such words among family."
"Auntie, I’ll say something you might not like to hear. Your marriage to your husband was more a strategic alliance, and over the years, your husband has mostly taken a lead from your family’s position. If one day he too reaches the Nascent Soul level and if he ever betrays you with a change of heart, let me know, I will stand up for you."
"He wouldn’t dare," Yu Yue confidently said, "It’s true that he and I married without any real emotional foundation, but after all these years, I know his temperament. Your uncle is especially intimidated by Feng, the leader. He might have the desire, but not the courage. I know you all want what’s best for me, but your uncle doesn’t have the ambitions that you think he does."
"That’s good to hear," Lin Yue nodded, asking her, "Then, Auntie, will you let me know in advance when you decide to take the Elixir, so I can be your protector?"
"Sure, but not now. I want to see Shuting married and see her have the Ye Family’s offspring, then I’ll leave with her dad to the territory," Yu Yue said.
Speaking of which, Yu Yue looked at Lin Yue and said, "Little Yue, please talk some sense into her. She should just find someone already, she’s become too wild now. You know what kind of standing your uncle has at home, I can’t control Shuting, let alone her father."
Lin Yue called out, "Shuting."
Ye Shuting was now in her twenties and going through a rebellious phase, always wanting to play. Her parents truly couldn’t control her.
Only Gu Feng and Lin Yue, the leaders, could get her to listen.
It made sense for her to be afraid of Gu Feng, given his status.
And Lin Yue was her direct superior, the benefactor who had helped the Ye Family reach their current status, so Ye Shuting always listened to what Lin Yue said.
"You’re what, around twenty-five or twenty-six now? Do you have someone in mind?" Lin Yue asked her out of the blue.
Ye Shuting instantly showed a guarded expression, "Sis, you’re not going to play that old game of making me marry through an arranged marriage, are you?"
"How can you talk like that?" Yu Yue scolded her daughter.
Lin Yue smiled and said, "The problem in front of you now is that your parents are thinking of leaving this place, but they want to see you married and having children first."
"Leaving?" Ye Shuting didn’t get it, "To where?"
Something felt off to her.
With medical technology so advanced now, even cancer was something we could overcome, and even ordinary people who didn’t participate in Cultivation could live up to 150 years easily. Her mom was only in her fifties, it sounded like she was planning her last rites or something.
A few seconds later, Ye Shuting realized what was being implied, her eyes bulging, "Mom, are you and Dad saying that you..."
Lin Yue smiled gently, "Just tell us if you want to get married or not."
Shuting was still sensible when it came to serious matters.
Who wouldn’t want a Star System Territory of their own?
"Well... should I ask my boyfriend then?" Ye Shuting subconsciously glanced at her mother Yu Yue.
Yu Yue narrowed her eyes, "You have a boyfriend? Since when? Who is he? From which family?"
Ye Shuting panicked, "Mom, listen to me first. His family isn’t from the institute, so the people I come into contact with in Shencheng can’t be from the big compound, right?"
"From the capital circle?" Yu Yue’s eyes narrowed to slits.
Ye Shuting quickly turned to Lin Yue and said, "Mom, don’t be a hypocrite. My sister-in-law is from the capital circle too; you can’t despise my boyfriend without belittling her."
"You foolish thing, that’s a completely different matter!" Yu Yue picked up her chopsticks, wanting to hit her.
Gu Feng was already at the top of the hierarchy; it wasn’t surprising regardless of who he was involved with.
For any woman, it would be an impossibility to influence Gu Feng’s endeavors.
But for Yu Yue’s family, it was different. Their only daughter definitely needed a suitable match if she was to have a stable and promising future.
Shuting, steeling herself, said, "Anyway, if you’re willing, I’ll bring him to meet you. Otherwise, we can just wait it out. Even if we don’t get married, I won’t break up with him."
Yu Yue said, "Don’t threaten me. Within Dragon Nation and indeed the whole world, it would be easy for the Gu Family to make someone’s life over."
Ye Shuting’s face changed, possibly really worried about her mother targeting her boyfriend’s family, and quickly looked to Lin Yue for help, "Sister-in-law..."
Lin Yue looked at the aunt with a smile and said, "How about... we meet him first?"
