Adopt me as his adoptive son

In the dining room of the Yan family's manor house.

Liu Di, the four daughters of the Yan family, and Ouyang Fengyu were seated on either side of an ornate, classical European-style long table.

The key figures had not yet arrived, and everyone was waiting quietly in anticipation.

Opposite Liu Di was Yan Qingwen.She was dressed in a black evening gown, and her already beautiful appearance was further enhanced by a touch of elegance.

Liu Di was not solely absorbed in admiring the beautiful figure in front of him.Instead, he was subtly observing Ouyang Fengyu from a distance.Ouyang Fengyu was currently adopting an demeanor of elegance.Where did his extraordinary strength come from?Could it be that he had practiced some kind of forbidden art?

He could be courteous and scholarly one moment, then utterly foolish the next, yet he could also mask his emotions even in the midst of anger?Such cunning is the most terrifying!

It seems that this prospective son-in-law is far more mysterious than I had imagined.

Yet, at the end of it all, Liu Di helplessly shrugged.Well then, from tomorrow on, I have no connection with the Yan family at all. No matter who Ouyang Fengyu is, it's none of my business.

Cough, cough...

A few coughs, tinged with authority, echoed through the room.Up the stairs, an imposing elder, led by the head butler, emerged slowly.

Ding...

[yan Hongxin, 75 years old;

Chairman of Yingzhi Group;

The group focuses on medical equipment, life health, and other fields;

The richest man in the city of Hai , ranked 27th on the Chinese Rich List;

In his later years, he is passionate about charity and has donated nearly 3 billion yuan to build primary schools and hospitals without charge;

He established the Vegetative State Awakening Charity Foundation, which specifically supports families of vegetative patients facing economic difficulties.]

The information from the Mystic Pupil came at the right time, and Liu Di observed it clearly.This Grandpa Yan is wealthy, kind-hearted, and, indeed, a great philanthropist.

Liu Di secretly admired, his gaze towards the elder growing even more respectful.

"This must be Liu Di, indeed a fine-looking young man."

Grandpa Yan approached, his smile warm and sincere.

"It's me, Grandpa Yan, how do you do," Liu Di stood up to respond.

"Let's sit down and talk," Grandpa Yan said.

Grandpa Yan sat in the master seat, though his figure was hunched, he still exuded an invisible aura of authority.

"Liu Di, my daughter, Wenwen, has been pampered and has a proud and cold personality. I fear she might have treated you improperly, so I specially invited you back to express my gratitude in person," Grandpa Yan said with a smile in his eyes, looking at Liu Di. "Liu Di, I truly apologize. It has taken us three whole years to find you."

Liu Di smiled and nodded, his heart harboring no deep resentment.

Over the past three years, he had already let go of much.Grandpa Yan continued, "I wonder if Liu Di has any knowledge of our Yingzhi Group or of me, Yan?"

As soon as the words fell, Liu Di's eyes were instantly filled with a flood of information.It was all about Yingzhi Group.

One of China's top 500 companies...

A major player in medical equipment...

A market value nearing a trillion...

The information was so overwhelming, it was almost dazzling.

"Sort of," Liu Di scratched his head and chuckled. "That's good."

"That's good."Then, Grandpa Yan took a deep breath and slowly said, "I'll get straight to the point. I wonder, Liu Di, if you would be willing to become my adopted son, to join the Yan family and enjoy wealth and honor, to take care of me in my old age and see me off in my final moments?"

"Father, you had better think it over more carefully!"

A row of Yan family members stood up immediately, with Ouyang Fengyu being the most reactive among them.They had heard about the father's intention before, but they hadn't expected him to voice it so quickly.

"No need to think about it... I want to adopt Liu Di as my adopted son!" Grandpa Yan said solemnly, his eyes tightly fixed on Liu Di's artificial eye.

"Father, you can't do this. Liu Di doesn't know how to behave properly; he just..." Yan Kaikai was about to mention the archery competition, but then he remembered the outcome of the match and had to swallow the rest of his words.

At this moment, Yan Qingwen was also looking at her father in disbelief. "Father, he did save me, but we don't have to repay him in such a way."

Ouyang Fengyu exclaimed passionately, "Father, wasn't it agreed that he would first be employed as a senior executive in the group and be granted a certain share of the equity? How come you've changed your mind now? This is too hasty!"

Ah, so that's why.As the main character of the event, Liu Di finally understood. No wonder Ouyang Fengyu targeted me from the moment we met. It was because he was afraid I would take away the shares of the Yan family.

"Sit down all of you!" Grandpa Yan glared with an angry expression, "Do you know what? Liu Di had his right eye removed to save Qingwen years ago!"

"What's that got to do with it? We can give him money!" Ouyang Fengyu replied unwillingly.

Grandpa Yan looked at Liu Di, a hint of guilt in his eyes, "You guys don't know. Liu Di has had a very difficult time for the past 3 years, because of the eye injury, he could only take on part-time jobs to make a living, and more importantly..."

"Due to the nerve infection from the eye injury, Liu Di will eventually go blind in 3 years! He's only 25 years old!"

At this point, the elder felt a pang of pain and closed his eyes, "The Yan family owes Liu Di too much."

"What?"

Yan Qingwen's body trembled instantly, and her gaze towards Liu Di became extremely complex.Even Yan Kaikai and Yan Xinxin, who had been rather carefree just moments ago, fell silent. They had no idea about Liu Di's impending blindness!

Grandpa Yan turned to look at Liu Di with an apologetic expression, "I'm sorry, Liu Di, I hope you don't mind me looking into your background."

Liu Di stood there in shock, his heart filled with a mix of emotions he couldn't express.What Grandpa Yan had said was true, but those were things of the past!Now, with the Mystic Pupil, not only had his injury been halted, but he had also gained an unimaginable ability.

Liu Di scratched his head, about to speak, when suddenly his stomach rumbled loudly.This was followed by a wave of intense hunger, as if he would faint immediately if he didn't eat something right away!

Mystic Pupil: "Liu Di, when I helped you synthesize muscle fibers, I almost depleted the protein and reserve glycogen in your body."

"Your body is now in a state of low blood sugar, low blood fat, and low cholesterol. I suggest you eat immediately!"

How come you didn't say this sooner!Looking at the appetizers on the table in front of him, Liu Di couldn't control himself at all.Ignoring everything around him, he grabbed the food and began to eat ravenously.

"How could he be so hungry?"The Yan family members were so shocked that their jaws dropped!

"He really is as pitiful as father said!"The twin beauties were so startled that their mouths twitched slightly.

"Quickly, bring more food for Liu Di!" Grandpa Yan ordered immediately.

'Ding... Detected sugar intake, blood sugar levels beginning to recover...'

'Detected beef protein intake, 0.3 grams of muscle fiber synthesized, muscle strength increased by 1.6%...'

'Detected intake of vitamin B complex and cod liver oil, vision improved by 0.8%...'

'Detected intake of eicosapentaenoic acid and other unsaturated fatty acids, brain memory and cognitive ability improved by 2.3%!'

With every bite of food Liu Di took, he gained an enhancement in his abilities.And the effects of different foods were even different!

'Detected beef protein intake, 0.3 grams of muscle fiber synthesized, muscle strength increased by 1.6%...'
