Drama Queen Reborn as a Top Student!-Chapter 835 - 385: Clearing the Name (Part 2)

Old Madam Yu’s rise to power is hardly known by the younger generation, and those who are older don’t dare to speak of it due to the Yu family’s intimidation.

But Old Madam Yu insisted on marrying her niece Mei Qingdai into the Yu family, who was nothing more than a decorative figure without much intelligence, resulting in outsiders uncovering all of Old Mrs. Yu’s secrets through her.

Back in the day, Old Madam Yu was just an actress, a profession considered the lowest form of occupation, with sayings like "a prostitute is heartless, an actor is untrustworthy."

By sheer luck, she managed to latch onto Yu Guoning, who already had a first wife, the noble and celebrated beauty Sang Ziming.

Mei Lvge and Sang Ziming, actress and socialite, two completely different people; who would have thought they would get entangled because of the same man.

The outcome followed history’s script, with Sang Ziming passing away early, ceding her position to Mei Lvge, who proved her worth by bearing two sons in succession, firmly establishing her footing in the Yu family.

Mei Lvge’s wealth and status depended on Yu Guoning, while Yu Guoning’s legacy was built on Sang Ziming; ultimately Sang Ziming’s early departure left room for the two to be together and enjoy familial bliss.

As the saying goes, ancestors plant trees so descendants can enjoy the shade; to put it bluntly, isn’t it just the cuckoo occupying the magpie’s nest?

Yet, if this were spoken in front of Mei Lvge’s dear grandson, Yu Fusheng, everyone would only feel that the speaker must be insane.

But the person speaking was Amos, the most favored young master of the Mei Fei Family, one of the world’s wealthiest families, a prodigy in investment whose wealth and connections span the globe.

For someone like him, even if he punches a hole through the sky, it probably wouldn’t have any impact.

What could Yu Fusheng possibly do to him?

Besides, it’s rumored that Amos has recently invested heavily in emerging industries in Hua Country this past year; if Yu Fusheng tries to move against him, it would disrupt everything.

Yu Fusheng’s face darkened like a pot’s bottom, his tone gritting with rage: "Amos, this is Hua Country, not your playground; clean up your act."

The implied meaning being, this is Hua Country, his turf, and if Amos knows what’s good for him, he’ll shut his mouth.

Amos curled his lips, his smile disdainful and scornful: "You think I wanted to come here? I even think your Yu family is dirtying my shoes; I’m here today to find a relative, and I’ll leave as soon as I find them."

Yu Fusheng furrowed his brow, looking at the young man’s wild and arrogant face, suddenly feeling that the boy’s features looked somewhat familiar.

For some reason, a sense of unease suddenly flashed through his heart.

"Find a relative?"

Not just Yu Fusheng, everyone present was confused.

The young man sighed, his brows and eyes tinged with worry: "My mother’s aunt, you would call her grand-aunt here in Hua Country; to fulfill my mother’s last wishes, I’ve searched long and hard to find traces of my grand-aunt."

Wei Zhuhua also felt a bad premonition, but believed that what must come couldn’t be avoided, stepped forward and gently asked: "What is your grand-aunt’s name?"

The young man raised his head, his smile especially bright and captivating.

"Shen Qiunong."

With a "buzz," Yu Fusheng’s mind blew up.

Wei Zhuhua’s pupils slightly contracted.

Yu Ruohuan also noticeably froze.

"Who is Shen Qiunong?" someone asked.

"She is Yu Yisen’s wife."

A gentle yet cool voice eclipsed the murmuring around.

The crowd instinctively turned to look, as a middle-aged couple entered.

The two were dressed in black, both wearing glasses, the man refined and handsome, the woman elegant and poised.

The pair appeared to be a perfect couple, their aura harmonious, their presence complementing one another, giving off a pleasing and comfortable feeling.

The speaking one was the woman.

Someone recognized her: "It’s Mrs. Gu."

Mrs. Gu, Na Amo, despite her age, already holds a respected position in the scientific community.

The man beside her is her husband, Gu Chengzhao, also a notable figure in international scientific circles.

The couple combines their talents seamlessly, contributing significantly to the development of Hua Country’s scientific endeavor.

They are usually busy with their research, often elusive, so seeing them at Old Mrs. Yu’s funeral is quite remarkable.

Behind the couple followed a young man, gentlemanly and jade-like, serene and composed.

That is their only son, and the sole heir of the Gu family, Gu Bichen.

Yu Yisen is not unfamiliar to many, a towering figure in the world of physics, a mainstay in textbooks worldwide.

Years ago, when physics in the country was still in its infancy, Yu Yisen, who had already made a name for himself while studying abroad, returned to the motherland without hesitation, using his knowledge and skills to advance national scientific research.
