While sitting inside the car, both of them were silent which created a eerily atmosphere. The one to break the silence was her mom. She said to Yu Wuhan.
"Wuhan, today all of them are going to have their meal in the dining room. Even your father and grandfather will be present in there. So you should behave properly and don't cause any trouble which will make me lose more face. Do you understand?"
"Yes mother, I understand."
Yu Wuhan noticed that her "mother" felt relieved. But her "mother" was still nervous for some reason. Yu Wuhan could understand her "mother's" plight. Even inside the Yu Estate, she had to fight for her own right. The Yu estate didn't only contain her "father's" children but it also contained her "Uncle's" children and there was a huge storm brewing inside that seeming peaceful estate. If Yu wuhan was given a chance she would never like to enter and live in that estate. That estate is more dangerous than the outside.
After half an hour, we reached estate which seemed grand from the outside. This was considered one of the biggest houses in the capital city.
When Yu Wuhan entered, she saw a huge portrayed of her "grandfather" which gives of a haughty impression.
Her mother tugged Yu Wuhan, and told her to follow "mother" to her room. After reaching to her room, her "mother' advised her to not roam around the estate and when a butler calls for lunch, she should come down. Then her mother left her room to see her other two children.
When Yu Wuhan's "mother" finally left, she sighed while thinking what a family. Yu Wuhan was tensed from the moment she entered this estate which was familiar and not familiar at the same moment because she had memories of this place but this was also her first time visiting. Anyway she heeded to her mother's word and dared not to roam around.
After waiting for one hour, a butler came a called her to go to the dining room.
When Yu Wuhan arrived, most of the chairs were almost filled. Yu Wuhan just went and sat in her designated spot. The table was clearly divided into two halves. On the right side was her "father's" wives and children. On the left side were her "Uncle's" wives and children. Yu Wuhan thought that this family is to big for her. On her right hand side sat her elder brother who just smiled at her and on the left hand side sat her younger sister whose face was radiant like a sunflower and ignoring her.
Yu Wuhan saw her "grandfather" raise a glass. Then he said to begin. Then only everyone touched their food. For Yu Wuhan, this was the first time she saw such extravagance just for a simple lunch. Even though she had memories of it but she couldn't feel it because it was not her's to begin with. Then Yu Wuhan tried her best to follow her fellow "siblings". While eating, Yu Wuhan tried her best to minimize her presence so that she could just complete this ordeal and leave this house for good.
Meanwhile her "grandfather" was talking about their family business like how it is going and stuff like that. Then after discussing matters with them, he shifted his attention towards the children who were eating. All the children eating were waiting for this opportunity. The first one to strike was Yu Wuhan "father's" first wife's son. He was going on and on about on about his life and how well he was doing inside the company. Yu Wuhan's "grandfather" just kept nodding in response. But internally he sighed and felt bitter. Yu Wuhan's "grandfather" thought why are this children fighting to just talk with me and all of this children have ulterior motives while speaking, none of them are speaking with a pure heart. Yu Wuhan's "grandfather" was saddened by this scenario. Then he looked again at all the children and couldn't help but sigh. But when he gazed passed from Yu Wunli to Yu Bai, he suddenly stopped. He almost failed to notice that there was girl sitting in between the two. He then noticed that this girl was not even looking at him and her head was bend down, it was as if she was trying to exclude herself as far as possible. He thought all the grand children are attention seeker but this grand child of his was trying to minimize her presence. He was intrigued and wanted to call this grand daughter's name but he didn't know this grand daughter of his. Therefore Yu Wuhan's "grandfather" felt a little embarrassed but still opened his mouth and asked her father while pointing towards a direction.
"Yu Tianhao, who is the child sitting there?"
"Father…that's Yu Wuhan. She just had a surgery and came back home just today. Father is something wrong?"
When Yu Tianhao father asked about Yu Wuhan, he felt strange because he never asked about this grand daughter of his, so why is he asking today. Therefore he asked if something was wrong. Even the other family members were startled when the heard him ask about a family member. This never happened before, therefore all of there eyes went towards the girls whose head was bend down.
Yu Wuhan's "grandfather" noticed all this but he still continued to talk and this question was directly asked to Yu Wuhan.
"Little Wuhan, how are you?"
When he heard no reply everyone was flabbergasted including Yu Wuhan's "grandfather". Other family members were thinking that what is wrong with this girl, her grandfather called her name personally but she is still not replying. Meanwhile Yu Wuhan "grandfather" also understood something and he was surprised internally. He thought that this child was really not interested in this but how could that be.
The main culprit Yu Wuhan was just enjoying her food, when she felt someone was tugging her legs. She felt annoyed that someone ruined her good mood. Therefore she looked over saw that her elder brother was still smiling. Yu Wuhan wondered that doesn't he get tired smiling all the time. Then she noticed that everyone was looking at her. This scared the hell out of her. She was just eating not disturbing anybody and was trying to minimize my presence but what the hell, why everybody is still looking at me. She couldn't help therefore she asked.
"Is something written on my face?"
When everyone heard this they were speechless. They thought what was this girl thinking while eating here. Meanwhile Yu Wuhan heard laughter coming from the main seat therefore she turned to look towards the seat where her "grandfather" was sitting.
"Little Wuhan, ignore them. I heard that you had a surgery. Are you alright now?"
Yu Wuhan was startled but she replied anyway.
"Grand daughter is fine Grand Father."
"Little Wuhan, do you want something? This Grandfather will try to fulfill your wish if it is within my means."
Yu Wuhan's grandfather really liked this grand daughter of his for some reason. Therefore he offered to give something which rarely occurs. But the answer he received left him stupefied and disappointed again including the others.
"Grand daughter needs some cash. If Grandfather was willing then this is what I want."
Yu Wuhan thought that if I am getting a favor than why not just ask money because anyway I require lots of money.
"Ok Little Wuhan. I will fulfill your wish."
Then after a while the "lunch" was over and Yu Wuhan was finally free.
***********
Meanwhile in the study room.
Yu Wuhan's grandfather was speaking with his butler.
"Butler Yao, this grand daughter of mine is really suspicious."
"Master, I don't get it. This child only asked for money. I don't see any suspicious points in this."
"Butler Yao, you don't get it. Usually when i say that I will grant them something the grand children including the parents will think for a while before answering and the one thing they will surely not ask is money. Ok, even if one asks for money, they will state a specific amount. But this grand daughter didn't state any amount which means that I can give how much or how little amount I want. This is very suspicious. Butler Yao, check this grand daughter of mine if you can. I somehow feel that she is not simple."
Butler Yao was shocked that his master gave such a evaluation towards a little girl. This means that something is actually going on and his master is not able to discern. Therefore he complied.
"Master, I understand."
