Chapter 1576: Once in a lifetime opportunity to be born

Xiao Yuchuan sat cross-legged, hands resting on his knees, palms facing upwards, gathering all his Zhenqi in an effort to regain his freedom in the shortest time possible.

The housekeeper looked anxious as he watched him, wondering whether the young Master would break free from the influence of Soft Bone Powder and leave immediately, "young Master..."

He called out uncertainly.

Seeing that he received no response, he couldn’t help but regret giving him the antidote.

Gongsun Qianru noticed that despite Xiao Yuchuan’s pale complexion, his features were handsomely outstanding, with bright, intimidating eyes and long, curled lashes.

Although his looks didn’t astonish on first glance, he was very easy on the eyes.

In terms of appearance, she found herself liking him more the more she looked.

"I’m going to see Master Xiao and his Lady in the East Garden," Gongsun Qianru pondered for a moment, determined not to give up on the man before her.

Having said that, she turned around with her maid and left.

"Bring Miss Gongsun Qianru over," the housekeeper commanded, and the guards followed immediately.

The housekeeper kept a watchful eye on Xiao Yuchuan, fearing he might run away.

Xiao Yuchuan merged his Zhenqi throughout his body, regaining his vigor, and stepped off the bed, heading towards the outside.

The housekeeper hurriedly followed after, "young Master, where are you going?"

"It’s none of your business." As he walked, he scrutinized the layout of the Xiao Mansion, realizing that the residence was the epitome of luxury and its owner must be wealthy and powerful.

He really felt like just staying there.

Clearly, staying meant inheriting the duty of the Xiao Family’s legitimate son, with the primary task being to marry Gongsun Qianru. He had come to understand that the Xiao Family would never accept his wife, no matter how excellent she might be; even if she were the most outstanding woman in the world, the Xiao Family sought the lineage of a legitimate daughter from one of the first-class families.

He could also inherit the Xiao Family and sever ties with family righteousness, but he had not become so desensitized as to stoop to that level.

The only option was to disown and disregard.

To not possess was to not bear the burden.

In one aspect, he really had to learn from his wife...

Whatever he wanted, he would have to create for himself.

The Xiao Family, he would not return.

After walking around, he still couldn’t find his way out, and Xiao Yuchuan asked coldly, "Where is the main gate?"

"young Master, are you planning to leave?" the housekeeper asked in panic, sweating profusely; if the young Master disappeared, Master Xiao and his Lady would be furious upon awakening. He pointed towards the East Garden, "It’s over that way."

Xiao Yuchuan followed the direction pointed out, only to find himself at the entrance of the East Garden. He couldn’t help but scold angrily, "How dare you deceive me!"

"I wouldn’t dare," the housekeeper replied nervously, "young Master, with Master and Lady currently unconscious, you can’t just leave like this."

"So you’d rather they wake up and find a way to control me?" Xiao Yuchuan was also enraged, "I truly wish I were not the damn legitimate son of the Xiao Family." If not for that, he wouldn’t have lost his wife. In fact, after being with his wife, he had always wanted a child.

If they hadn’t been separated, he would have worked hard, and perhaps his wife might already be carrying a baby by now.

A pain that cut to the bone swept across his polished eyes.

His hands clenched into fists, eyes filled with either hatred or anger.

"young Master, your birth is something others couldn’t obtain in eight lifetimes, how can you speak like this?" the housekeeper pleaded earnestly, "At least out of basic filial piety, go see Master and his Lady."

"They are not my Father and Mother!" Xiao Yuchuan exclaimed in anger.

"young Master, please don’t speak in anger... Under heaven, you are the only blood child of Master and his Lady."
