Chapter 568: Father Won’t Be Able To Rush Back By Tonight

The pirates had hostages in hand and it was impossible for the higher-ups to directly launch a war without a care for them.
“Father has already secretly sent men to rescue those hostages before Third Uncle had even made his way over. He has also been trying to negotiate with them these past days. If the negotiations fall through after he rescues those hostages, they will directly go to war.”
Zi Yi only responded with a nod after hearing what Lu Jingye had to say. She then lowered her head and continued scrolling through her phone.
The car drove for more than three hours before they finally arrived in the city area.
The city was still as bustling as when they had left.
Zi Yi inadvertently looked out of the car window and noticed that many of the billboards that were previously occupied by the Lu Group had been replaced by other big-brand advertisements. She subconsciously turned her head to Lu Jingye.
“The billboard space bought by the Lu Group expired in December. If we do not contact them in advance, the billboard company would regard it as a non-renewal and the billboard space would be leased to another company in early December.” Zi Yi’s lips curled up and she guessed. “Perhaps they don’t even know of it yet.”
‘Yep.”
Lu Jingye’s expression looked rather indifferent, and it seemed like he was not particularly concerned about it either.
When their car drove back to the villa, Mrs. Lu and the two housekeepers were standing outside and waiting for them.
“Mom.”
Zi Yi looked at Mrs. Lu who was smiling in their direction. Before they even alighted, Zi Yi rolled down the windows and called out to her.
Mrs. Lu responded with a greeting and after Zi Yi alighted from the car, she pulled
her over and sized her up. When she saw that her complexion looked rosy, she nodded in satisfaction.
Just then, Dou Xiangling and the others walked over.
Dou Xiangling and Dou Zerui called out at the same time. “Auntie Lu.”
Mrs. Lu smiled and nodded her head before she turned her gaze to Ian who was making his way over.
Ian gave Mrs. Lu a gentlemanly bow and said, “Auntie Lu, it is nice to meet you.”
“You must be Ian.” Mrs. Lu had heard Lu Jingye talking about him before and she said with a smile, “You are welcome as a guest in our house,”
“Thank you.” Ian then said, “Auntie Lu looks really young. I’ve seen your photos in Lu is photo frames while we were studying at M.Uni in the past. I didn’t expect that you would still be so young and beautiful after all these years.”
Mrs. Lu’s eyes curved into crescent moons. “This child, you’re really good at talking. Everyone, come in and have a seat, it’s cold outside.”
Everyone headed towards the living room as they passed through the backyard.
It was Ian’s first time visiting and he checked out the place while walking.
When he saw numerous famous flowers and plants occupying their backyard, he was very surprised. In particular, when he saw those blood lotuses that were blooming brilliantly on the rockery, he could not help but ask. “Why are the flowers on the rockery so similar to that of Blood Lotuses?”
“It’s not that they’re similar. They are Blood Lotuses. The same Blood Lotuses that can only be found on X Snow Mountain.”
“Blood Lotuses!”
Zi Yi glanced at Ian who was making a fuss out of nothing and gave a disapproving snort.
Ian’s eyes widened even further. “How did you accomplish this?”
“I casually planted them.”
Ian glanced at Zi Yi.
Can this woman be even more arrogant than she is acting right now?
The others looked at Ian and Dou Zerui said to him out of kindness, “Ian, there’s no need to be surprised by whatever you see here. Just getting used to it will do. Some things are really considered to be easily done by her.”
Ian remained silent.
When Mrs. Lu saw that Ian had been silent throughout, she could not help but smile. “Yiyi likes to do some things here and there. Don’t be too surprised if you come across them.”
Soon, they arrived outside of the living room.
The door opened automatically and Ian did not care either.
The housekeeper followed them inside and asked, “I wonder what Sir Ian would like to drink?”
Ian thought for a second and said, “Tea will do.”
The housekeeper nodded and went out.
Following that, several staff members came in with tea sets in their hands.
Ian was a little surprised. “Are they going to brew tea?”
“That’s right.”
Everyone sat on the sofa and waited.
One of the staff members started boiling water.
When Ian saw that the staff member put one of their hands against the electrical outlet, he asked in surprise, “What’s she doing?”
“Inserting electricity to boil the water?”
Dou Xiangling saw Ian whose eyes were wide open and kindly said, “These people are all robots. They carry around electricity.”
Ian said in surprise, “…They are robots?”
He did not even manage to notice anything amiss about them.
“Yes. Other than the housekeeper and a few helpers, all the staff members in Yiyi’s house are robots.”
“I can’t even discern who are the robots and who are the real people.” Ian was silent for a few seconds and he turned to look at Zi Yi and Lu Jingye. “These robots were made by Zi?”
“Yes.” Lu Jingye nodded his head.
Ian fell into silence.
All of a sudden, he had a whole new impression of Zi Yi.
After the robots were done boiling the water, they drank tea while chatting with Mrs. Lu about the interesting events that had happened in the hot springs villa.
In particular, Dou Zerui had deliberately brought up the story where Zi Yi fell down from the tree.
Mrs. Lu was worried about Zi Yi, but she had also found it funny at the same time.
She took Zi Yi’s hand and said, “Yiyi, why were you so careless? If you want to eat anything, just get Jingye to harvest it for you. If you get injured, we would be the ones that would feel hurt.”
Zi Yi glared at Dou Zerui and immediately cleverly assured Mrs. Lu. “Mom, I won’t ever climb trees again in the future.”
Mrs. Lu’s heart softened and she did not continue to say anything.
Everyone chatted for a while longer and soon, it was lunchtime.
After finishing lunch, Dou Zerui and Dou Xiangling left.
Lu Jingye arranged a room for Ian to stay in.
After Lu Jingye led Ian away, Zi Yi headed to her underground laboratory.
Mrs. Lu had also followed her downstairs.
While she did the experiments, Zi Yi explained to Mrs. Lu about Lu Yunxiao’s situation. “Yunxiao’s brain cells are already 60% regenerated and if nothing goes wrong, he will gain consciousness during the few days when Ah Jing and I get married.”
“Really?” Mrs. Lu was so excited that her voice trembled slightly. “That’s fantastic.” Speaking of this, she thought of what her youngest son had suffered through and the rim of her eyes turned damp.
Zi Yi was at a loss on what to do and she hastily said, “Mom, don’t cry. Why don’t I connect to Yunxiao’s room and let you see him?”
Mrs. Lu nodded her head. “Sure.”
Zi Yi connected to Lu Yunxiao’s ward and showed her Lu Yunxiao who was soaked in the nutrient solution.
His body fat had all grown back and on the surface, he looked similar to someone who was currently asleep. At the sight of this, Mrs. Lu felt relieved.
Zi Yi then continued with her experiments.
It was not known how long had passed when approaching the sound of footsteps could be heard from outside.
Soon, the sound of footsteps arrived outside the door.
Zi Yi and Mrs. Lu turned around and looked in that direction.
The first thing Lu Jingye did was to check out Lu Yunxiao on the virtual screen and only then did he approach the two. “Mother, Yiyi, Father won’t be able to rush back by tonight. ”
“Why?”
Mrs. Lu felt her heart skip a beat and she unconsciously raised her voice. “Didn’t he say he would set off in the morning?”
Lu Jingye looked at his Mother and said, “Father said that there are still some things that he has yet to hand over to Third Uncle and he needs another two days.”
“What is the matter that needs so long for a handover?”.
