Chapter 108 The Stepson Who Married into a Wealthy Family with His Mother (19)
The male lead had barely recovered when he was immediately greeted with the female lead's engagement banquet.
As a member of the family, Xu Fu was naturally completely at the beck and call of Yun's father.
Not only did they have to decorate their homes, but they also had to learn the etiquette and rules among the nobility...
What Xu Fu meant was that it was unnecessary, and shouldn't have been needed.
Since the male and female protagonists know the truth about their mother's death but remain unmoved...
Xu Fu planned to give them a push from behind—
The engagement banquet was held as scheduled, with everyone clinking glasses and making a lively atmosphere.
Xu Fu hid alone in a corner, enjoying the calm before the storm...
When the female lead, arm in arm with the male lead and Yun's father, walked onto the high platform...
Xu Fu knew he could make his move!
"System, connect to the backend computer, and directly play the cause of death of Madam Yun and her family—"
[Are you sure you want to do this, host?!]
"Get to work quickly, stop dawdling—" Xu Fu was no good person.
The goal is to deliver a heavy blow to the Yun family when they are happiest...
[Ding! Ten points awarded.]
As soon as the system finished speaking, the curtain behind the three members of the Yun family suddenly lit up.
The lights in the villa's lobby slowly dimmed.
Under the system's control, the life stories of the first wife, Madam Yun, and her father are displayed one by one.
In the end, when Madam Yun's maternal family fell from power, her father took his three illegitimate sons into his home.
The final image freezes on the moment Madam Yun falls freely—
The banquet hall was quiet. No one expected that Yun's father, who seemed so upright and virtuous, would be so despicable and shameless...
Having enjoyed the exasperated expressions of the three on stage, Xu Fu instructed the system to turn on the main lights in the villa.
Yun's father's resentful and venomous face was laid bare—
He knew that from this day forward, the reputation he had painstakingly built up would rot completely.
Those who realized what was happening quickly went forward to say goodbye.
In less than ten minutes, only the Yun family and the family the female protagonist was engaged to remained in the entire villa...
Mr. and Mrs. Fang stepped forward with their son and exchanged a few polite words with Mr. Yun in a lukewarm manner.
Then the three of them left without looking back.
As for today's engagement banquet, they only said they would hold it later...
Xu Fu listened intently for a moment and realized that the Fang family would absolutely not tolerate the female lead.
And their talk of getting a replacement will ultimately come to nothing...
Father Yun had obviously thought of this too, and his face immediately darkened. He ordered the butler to investigate the instigator.
Xu Fu nodded to the people from afar, then approached Yan's mother.
Xu Fu cut to the chase and asked, "Mom, do you want to leave with me—"
With reddened eyes, Yan's mother lowered her head, touched her belly, and shook her head slightly.
"Having acquired so many shares of Dong, they won't let us leave—"
"And I'm pregnant with his child."
"Where can I go after the divorce?" Mother Yan looked at Father Yun with a pained and heartbroken expression.
The three men, including Yun's father, had unusually dark faces and remained silent...
Xu Fu didn't plan to stay long and went straight back to his room to pack his things.
Then he left the Yun family villa without looking back.
But as soon as he left the villa area, a metallic taste rose in his throat.
He opened his mouth and spat out a mouthful of blood, but he felt no discomfort anywhere on his body.
Sensing something was amiss, Xu Fu immediately began to calculate with his fingers...
Then they discovered that the luck of both the male and female leads had dropped significantly—
However, Xu Fu himself could not withstand the gifts of good fortune, so his body gave him a slight warning...
[Host, you're playing with your life—] The system cannot condone the host's actions.
Is there any possibility that the child in my adoptive mother's belly could become the next chosen one?
Xu Fu's biggest concern was whether he could take this opportunity to accumulate some points.
Even though it's a vacation world, he's been so busy for so long and used so many points...
"Thinking about it, it seems like a pretty bad deal," Xu Fu chuckled.
Since Yun's father was able to give birth to the male and female protagonists, and now Xu Fu has weakened the other party's luck...
Does that mean the baby in the mother's belly has a chance to become the heir?
[Host, the system advises you not to overthink it—]
Do you think that before you completely diminish the male and female protagonists' luck, Heaven will simply kill you off?!
"Does my death somehow set things right?!" Xu Fu retorted angrily.
This time, the system ignored Xu Fu.
Xu Fu didn't press the matter further and went straight home...
But when he got out of bed the next day, he noticed that his hair was already showing signs of turning gray.
Moreover, the person was pale and weak all over.
Xu Fu asked weakly, "System, is this the backlash from the male and female protagonists' lucky aura?!"
[Host, you're really smart! I told you not to mess around, now you're in trouble!]
Ignoring the system's gloating, Xu Fu struggled to sit up.
I packed everything usable into the storage space, and then I packed a new set of clothes—
He planned to return to the Yun family villa immediately, wait until he passed away, and have them take care of him in his old age and bury him in the afterlife...
Seeing that Xu Fu had only been gone for one night, everyone in the Yun family was somewhat taken aback.
They thought he would leave with a strong will, but who could have imagined that in just a few hours...
People will then have the audacity to come knocking on your door...
[Host, I can only evade the pursuit of Heaven's Dao—] the system quietly reminded me.
If you want to survive, please behave yourself and stop causing trouble!
"I am absolutely a law-abiding citizen—" Xu Fu replied shamelessly.
Then, she would stay by the male and female leads' side for all three meals a day—
However, with such a huge scandal involving Yun's father, the Yun Group was affected...
The male protagonist was busy for more than a month before he finally returned to a normal routine.
The female lead seems to have broken up with her fiancé and spends all her time at home.
She's not going out to have fun anymore!
Xu Fu, like a monster sucking away people's life force, hovered around the two of them.
It continuously absorbs the opponent's luck, then hides in a secluded place and coughs up blood.
In just over half a month, he became so thin he was practically skin and bones.
Everyone in the Yun family noticed the anomaly, but they all ignored it.
The mother, feeling sorry for the newborn child, came directly to their door.
"What happened to you? How did you suddenly lose so much weight?"
"How about we go to the hospital for a check-up tomorrow? I'm going there anyway—"
The mother's belly had begun to curve slightly, and her face radiated maternal glow.
Xu Fu smiled and immediately rejected the other party's suggestion.
"It's okay, I've been on a diet recently, so I'm losing weight faster—"
"I know my own body, Mom, don't worry."
Seeing Xu Fu's confident assurances, Yan's mother had some doubts.
But I didn't try to persuade them any further.
After all, her son is grown up and has his own ideas, and she also has a baby in her belly to worry about...
