Cultivation Online

"Meixiu, now that your mother is here… Are you going to be fine?" Wang Bingbing asked her.

She nodded, "It will be fine. She may be my mother, but I am an adult now, and we\'re no longer at the Yu Family. Nothing will change even with her presence here."

"Your mother seems like the serious type. She\'s like the complete opposite of you." Wang Ming said.

"She\'s very serious and strict when it comes to her work, but she is always perfect. It might take a while, but you will eventually get used to her."

"Is there anything we should be aware of about her? Like what might make her angry?"

Meixiu pondered for a moment before responding, "If anything, she hates lazy people, I guess. But I don\'t think any of you should worry about it. She\'s working for Yuan now, so she will probably change just like I did."

While Meifeng followed Yuan around the mansion, she asked him, "What do you usually do nowadays, Young Master?"

"Uhh… Miss Meifeng, do you think you can stop calling me Young Master? You\'re Meixiu\'s mother, so it feels a little weird to be addressed in such a manner by you, not to mention that I am no longer a little kid. You\'re also no longer working for the Yu Family. You don\'t need to be so formal. Things are really relaxed around here."

"Even if you say that, what am I supposed to call you? I have called you Young Master for over 10 years now, and old habits are hard to change. Furthermore, even if I am not at the Yu Family, I am still working for you."

"Can\'t you just call me Yuan like everyone?"

"That feels wrong to me. I think I will continue to call you Young Master, after all."

Yuan showed a bittersweet smile and said, "Your demeanor reminds me of someone I know in Cultivation Online, but she\'s much more easy going than you, even a little silly at times."

"Anyways, to answer your question, I usually just train with the others in the morning before going into Cultivation Online."

"That\'s it? Just training and playing video games? What about the instruments? Did you return to playing them?"

"Occasionally, I play the zither. But other than that, I don\'t touch other instruments. Actually, I guess I also played the piano a couple of times for Yu Rou."

"Do you have no intentions of returning to the world of music? Your talents… It really would be a waste."

Yuan pondered for a moment before responding, "Now that the entire world knows Yu Tian and Yuan are the same person, I might do a concert once in a while to entertain my fans. However, I don\'t intend on profiting from it. I want people to be able to enjoy my music without needing to worry about not affording tickets."

"That\'s just like you, Young Master…"

Sometime later, Yuan showed Meifeng his room.

"This is my room. That room right there is Meixiu\'s room."

Meifeng entered his room the following moment and immediately started inspecting it.

"Young Master… This place is full of dust. Meixiu… What does she do nowadays? Why isn\'t she cleaning your room?" Meifeng had a frown on her face as she looked at the little amount of dust on her fingers.

Although Chu Liuxiang cleans their room, she\'s not a professional maid like Meixiu or Meifeng, so it was only natural that the room isn\'t sparkless.

"Meixiu doesn\'t work as my maid anymore. I have her handle the faction and the food. Other than that, she trains with us and mainly focuses on her cultivation."

"Young Master, you cannot live like this! With this much dust in the room, you could easily get sick! Starting today, I will be cleaning your room every day!" Meifeng declared.

Of course, the room wasn\'t as dirty as Meifeng made it sound, but even a speck of dust in the room is one too many for someone like her.

"I\'m going to see Meixiu\'s room now." Meifeng said after a quick inspection of Yuan\'s room.

Normally, one would need permission to enter Meixiu\'s room, but this was Meifeng, her mother. Even Yuan didn\'t dare to stop her from entering.

A moment later, Meifeng entered Meixiu\'s room and started her inspection.

"At least she\'s keeping her own room clean." Meifeng couldn\'t find anything to complain about after the inspection.

The bed was neatly made, and the furniture in the room was sparkling clean.

However, Meifeng wasn\'t satisfied just yet, so she dug a little deeper, going into her clothes and such.

A few minutes later, when Meifeng reached Meixiu\'s bed, she noticed something was off and reached her hand underneath the bed mattress.

Yuan raised his eyebrows, wondering what she was doing.

"What\'s this?" Meifeng felt something like a box and pulled it out.

When she saw what was written on the box, her eyes widened with shock, and her hands even began trembling.

\'B-Birth control pills?! Why the hell is she hiding such a thing?!\' Meifeng cried inwardly.

She turned to look at Yuan in a stiff manner.

"Y-Young Master… Are you and Meixiu… by some chance… doing it?"

"About that…"

Yuan didn\'t expect for Meifeng to find out about his relationship with her daughter so soon, but now that the cat is out of the bag, he might as well tell the truth.

"Yes, we\'re partners. We were going to tell you later when the time was right, but I guess there\'s no longer any need for that." Yuan chuckled.

Meifeng turned to look at the box again.

\'That girl… She really did it…\'

A slight smile appeared on Meifeng\'s face.

She returned the box back to its original place and said, "Don\'t tell Meixiu about this. I want to hear it from her."

"I understand." He nodded.
