Chapter 505: His Own Company

After playing the last note to the song, Yuan lifted his hands from the piano keyboard in an elegant manner before turning to face the shocked Yu Rou with a smile on his face.

“What do you think? I may not be as good as I used to be, but I hope you enjoyed it.”

Hearing his words, Yu Rou’s eyes finally started flowing with tears, and because she’d held it in for so long, it came gushing forward like a broken dam, immediately blocking her vision.

“Brother… You’re so cruel…” Yu Rou said in a crying voice, dumbfounding him.

And she continued, “How can you make me cry in front of so many people…?”

Yu Rou then wiped her tears and said, “How come you can move again? And since when?”

Yuan then explained to her that he has no clue why it happened, “I woke up like this, and it has only been like 2 days since my recovery.”

“It’s only been two days…? And your recovery happened out of the blue? What kind of miracle is this?” Yu Rou was left speechless by his words.

Thousands of doctors around the world couldn’t figure out what was going on with Yuan’s condition, and he somehow heals naturally? That seemed too good to be true. However, there was no reason for Yuan to lie to her.

Yuan suddenly approached Yu Rou and wiped the tears from her face.

“To tell you the truth, my recovery actually started even before I left the Yu Family, but I was only able to lift a finger at that time, and I didn’t want to get your hopes up, so I decided to wait until I could stand on my own before letting you know.”

“Unbelievable…” Yu Rou muttered in a low voice.

After a moment of silence, she said, “This changes everything, brother! Now that you have recovered, there are so many things you can do! What do you plan on doing now that you have recovered?”

“I am going to focus on rehabilitation for now. Once I am confident with my movements, I am going to visit the Cultivators’ Association. However, I am not sure what I want to do after that.”

“Do you intend on going back to the stage?” Yu Rou asked the question that has been asked multiple times now.

“No, I do not.” Yuan shook his head.

Yu Rou sighed and said, “I figured… But you should reconsider, since it’s such a waste of your talents. Brother, you never truly reached the peak of the musical world since you were forced to leave it due to your condition, and it has always been a dream of mine to see you on the stage again. Furthermore, you can get back at the Yu Family for abandoning you.”

“If you return to the stage, they will definitely regret disowning you. In fact, they might even try to get you back into the family.”

“Hmm…” Yuan didn’t immediately refuse and began pondering.

‘Getting back at the Yu Family, huh? I definitely want to see their faces filled with regret. However, I shouldn’t be doing this for revenge… Instead, I should be doing this for Yu Rou, who has been there for me since the beginning.’

‘If Yu Rou wants me to return to the stage…’

Although he has already decided to never return to the professional stage, he also told himself that he would do anything to make Yu Rou happy, and if him returning to the stage will make her happy, he cannot simply ignore it.

“Brother, if you don’t want to return to the stage, I won’t force you.” Yu Rou said to him, as she could guess what he was thinking.

“I…”

It was at this moment Meifeng spoke, “Young Master, if I may make a suggestion, you don’t need to go onto the stage as ‘Yu Tian’. You can simply do it under a different alias. After all, it’s not the stage you hate— but your name that is affiliated with the Yu Family, am I right?”

“I have listened closely to all of your performances today, and I can tell that you still enjoy playing the instrument. You’re afraid that if you go onto the stage that you’ll once again give credit to the Yu Family.”

“If I am wrong, please correct me.”

Yuan remained silent for a moment before speaking, “I have known that I still love to play the instrument when I played the zither inside Cultivation Online. I think you’re right, Miss Meifeng. It’s not the stage that I don’t like— I just don’t want to feel like I am being used by the Yu Family again.”

“Brother…” Yu Rou felt incredibly guilty at this moment, as she was part of the Yu Family that made Yuan feel so much pain and grief.

“Well, there are many things you can do to avoid that feeling, such as playing for another company. Or even better— you can make your own company so that you won’t be playing for anyone but yourself.”

“Making my own company? As much as I like the sound of that, I am only 18 years old… How am I supposed to make a company?”

Meifeng lifted her hand and pointed it at herself.

“You don’t need to do anything, Young Master. I can make the company for you.”

“R-Really? But aren’t you already incredibly busy at the Yu Family? I don’t dare to make you work even more than you already are…” Yuan said.

“It’s really not that much work. Although I will be making the company, I won’t actually need to do anything, and when I do, I can do it from anywhere in the world as long as I have access to a phone and the internet.”

“Furthermore, you can hire other people to deal with the stuff. In fact, Meixiu has some experience when it comes to these kinds of things since this is what we mainly do for the Yu Family.”

Meifeng then turned to look at Meixiu and continued, “I will make the company and you’ll do everything else. Since it’s just a company in name, you don’t actually have to do much besides organizing events for the Young Master. You should be able to do at least that with your training. If you need help, I will step in. What do you think?”
