Dream Yu's father had just angrily said those words, thinking Liu Zixuan was only asking for his opinion. After all, no matter how he thought about it, he wouldn't believe his words could become reality.
To put it bluntly, it was just getting off his chest!
Unexpectedly, as soon as he finished speaking, Liu Zixuan, like the Judge of Yama Hall, immediately sentenced Meng Zeyang and the Meng Family to death!
Watching Dream Yu's father hastily explain, Liu Zixuan let out a sneer: "Often, words spoken out of anger from the subconscious are the true voice of the heart. Since it has come to this, what use is there in keeping Meng Zeyang? What use is there in keeping the Meng Family?"
"No, absolutely not!"
Meng Zeyang pleaded, holding Dream Yu's father's arm: "We come from the same roots, and now my lineage has ended. Do you really want to see the foundation laid by our ancestors destroyed as well?"
Dream Yu's father's mouth twitched a few times, and he sighed deeply.
Previously, whether he gambled or wasted money, it was just because he felt unbalanced and wanted to numb his feelings after being driven out by the Meng Family.
He even thought that if he had the chance, he would definitely kill Meng Zeyang and the others!
But facing it, seeing Meng Zeyang's pleading expression, he was at a loss for words!
Human hearts are made of flesh, and no one can be truly heartless, especially when it comes to brothers connected by blood!
After hesitating for a while, Dream Yu's father shook his head: "I originally hated you all so much that I wished to tear you apart, to let you die without a grave, but now I suddenly can't hate you anymore."
"Ever since the Meng Family drove me out, I have been running around with Dream Yu and her mother, finally settling in Ghost Wood City. At that time, I told myself, Dream Yu is still young, I cannot fall."
"I started working hard to earn money to send her to school, but as Dream Yu grew up, seeing her friends enjoying good family treatment while she had none, I felt more and more unbalanced!"
"I started gambling, drinking, did countless wrong things, and today I finally woke up. Seeing my daughter have someone as good as Xiao Liu for a future, I think I should let go of everything and spend peaceful days with the woman who's been with me for years."
Dream Yu's father murmured to himself, or perhaps he was speaking to Meng Zeyang, but there was no anger, only calmness.
That said, he walked up to Liu Zixuan: "Xiao Liu, you handle this matter. Uncle trusts you. Your aunt and I are old, and we have no energy left."
Dream Yu's father patted Liu Zixuan's shoulder and leaned in to whisper: "No matter what, leave a successor for the Meng Family. This generation bears the guilt; do not let hatred continue into the future!"
Having said that, Dream Yu's father took Dream Yu's mother's hand and headed outside, seemingly not wanting to see anything anymore.
Dream Yu walked up to Liu Zixuan, tears streaming down her face, and said, "Thank you, Zixuan."
She thought today she would truly marry Young Master Qu!
She thought she would no longer have any fate with Liu Zixuan!
But those were only her thoughts, as Liu Zixuan showed her with strength that her assumptions were nothing!
Liu Zixuan smiled slightly, "Silly girl, you're my woman, why are you saying thank you? Go out and accompany your parents back to the hotel; I'll handle this here!"
"Okay." Dream Yu, like an obedient wife, nodded slightly and walked out.
In that moment, the guests also gradually left. What happens to the Meng Family is merely gaining or losing a business partner to them!
They had no interest in watching further developments.
Of course, this might just be what they call dispersing when the tree falls; when the Meng Family was powerful, the guests would certainly flatter and fawn over them, but now... there's a slight taste of people leaving when the tea cools.
The courtyard was left empty, with only the Meng Family members, Liu Zixuan, and Young Master Qu remaining.
Liu Zixuan sat on a chair, lit a cigarette, and did not speak, as if contemplating something.
Whether the Meng Family lived or died, he didn't care. He had once said that stepping on the Meng Family in the Celestial Capital was merely the first step southward!
But he cared about Dream Yu, and no matter what, this was Dream Yu's home, their roots.
Whether killing them all or leaving them all made little difference, it depended largely on the future behavior of Meng Zeyang and the others.
Moreover, if the Meng Family were destroyed, it would give the Qu Family an excellent opportunity, at which point they would take over, and Dream Yu's family's roots would cease to exist.
After a moment of thought, Liu Zixuan looked at Meng Zeyang and said, "Three conditions. If you agree, I'll spare your Meng Family."
"Please tell me, as long as I can keep the Meng Family, I'll do anything!" Meng Zeyang said excitedly.
"First, the Meng Family must stop expanding, maintain the current state, and live a peaceful life!"
"This..." Meng Zeyang's ambition wasn't this small, but after hesitating for a moment he said, "I agree!"
"Second, sixty percent of the Meng Family's annual profit must be given to Dream Yu's family!"
"I agree!"
"Third, you must step down from the Patriarch position and let the lineage of Meng Chen inherit. Don't try any tricks, I will have the Qu Family supervise you!"
Upon hearing the third condition, Meng Zeyang's expression changed, but what could he say now? It's good enough to save his life; in the future, he could just live the simplest life! "I agree to these three conditions!"
His son was also dead; staying alive was just prolonging his miserable existence!
Perhaps going forward, Meng Zeyang's days would be more painful than dying!
Because he would watch his own built-up business be enjoyed by others, watch countless money go to others!
And he would become the most useless in the Meng Family!
Upon hearing that their lineage would inherit, Meng Chen couldn't help but step forward: "Liu Zixuan, we of our lineage..."
"Live ordinary lives steadily. You don't need to do anything more, just manage the family well. But I hope you won't become the second Meng Zeyang, otherwise next time, the Meng Family will surely perish!"
To Liu Zixuan's cold words, Meng Chen was a little uncomfortable. She knew that with Liu Zixuan's strength, he could wipe out the Meng Family with a wave of his hand.
But things were as they were not because of Meng Chen, but because of Dream Yu!
In an involuntary moment, Meng Chen felt a twinge of loss in her heart and more envy for Dream Yu!
Then Liu Zixuan stood up and looked at Young Master Qu: "They still need to hold a funeral for their son, so we shouldn't stay long!"
