Chapter 814: The Emperor Seat of the Country of Summer is yours to take
Yin Lei glanced at him and sighed, “Not only did you inherit your mom’s looks, you are so much like her in other aspects as well – especially when it comes to relationships.”
Jun Yexuan’s face tightened.
Yin Lei sat down on a chair and asked Jun Yexuan and Mu Jinghang to sit down as well.
He sipped the tea and continued, “Before you arrived, I’ve heard of Qiao Qing and I can imagine why you’d like her. After all, amazing girls can always attract men. I am not opposed to you being together, however…”
He paused here, “You cannot marry her.”
Jun Yexuan’s face fell and instantly argued, “Grandpa, you really think you can interfere with my marriage?!”
Yin Lei said, “If I don’t have the power, you wouldn’t be here with me, right?”
Jun Yexuan tightened his fists, “Grandpa, you’re going to threaten me by not letting us search for who we are looking for?!”
“Don’t you want to hear why you cannot marry her?” Yin Lei frowned, “Yexuan, you’re far too irrational.”
Jun Yexuan said, “No matter the reason, she must be my wife!”
“Can you really promise that you can spend the rest of her life with her?” Yin Lei said, “Your disease is a timed bomb. If it doesn’t get cured, you may be endangered at any time. When that happens, what can you give her?”
Jun Yexuan said, “Qingqing knows medicine. I’m sure she can find a way to cure me. After all, she was able to cure a man in a vegetative state.”
“She has to know what illness she’s up against first.” Yin Lei responded, “I’ve heard of her curing someone in a vegetative state and how she cured Leng Yan. What she did could be considered miraculous. However, that was under the circumstance that she knew what illness she was curing.”
“She cannot even tell you are sick, how do you envision her to be able to cure you? I am not trying to curse you, but what if your illness comes back before she finds a way?”
“I don’t know why you detest Houshang so much. But she’s been working hard for you all these years. Right now, she has some ideas on getting rid of your sickness. All she needs is your cooperation and some lab work. This is one of the reasons why I asked you to come back home.”
Jun Yexuan asked, “So, just because she can figure out ways to cure me, I must give up the girl I love and marry her?”
“Not only that.” Yin Lei said, “Even though you’re now living in the Capital Country, you should know that the Xia family isn’t only a noble family, they’re also the family in this country who provides the weaponry needed for national security.”
Jun Yexuan didn’t speak.
Yin Lei didn’t mind it and continued, “I’m 70 years old this year – half-buried. I have no sons and your mother passed away young. All I have are you and Xiaoqi.”
“Xiaoqi doesn’t take anything seriously and therefore cannot handle a position of power. The Emperor seat of the Country of Summer is yours to take.”
Jun Yexuan said, “I don’t want…”
“It’s not up to you to want it or not. The nobility blood runs in you. This is your responsibility and your destiny.”
Yin Lei added, “Plus, ask any men in this world – who would give up the seat of power to live in a foreign country as a businessman? If someone really chooses that life, then it’s an act of weakness.”
