Online Cultivation
episode 230

“I-That doesn't make sense, mom! Where would Brother Tian go if you chased him away?! He can't do anything by himself either! You can't do this to her!" Yu Rou immediately said.

"How dare you raise your voice to me, Yu Rou!" Tang Lee shouted back, and then he continued, “We have spent hundreds of millions of dollars in the last 10 years on the boy's medical bills in the hope that he can be cured! However, it is very clear to us that his condition is permanent! If that was the case, why should we continue to waste our money on people like him?! There are things in life that you have to let go of, even if that ‘hal’ is family!”

“But Brother Tian has brought fame and reputation to our family and company! How could you throw it away like trash after everything he did for the family?! He even sacrificed his childhood so that our family could prosper!” Yu Rou did not care about being scolded and continued to defend Yu Tian, as she could not imagine life without him.

“It is true that his talent has brought our family and company to the top of the music” world that we cannot deny. However, we have paid him back and more with the millions we spent on him over the past 10 years. If he did not want to continue contributing to the family, then there was no reason for him to remain in this family. We've been thinking long and hard about this, and it's our decision. If you don't want that, then you better convince Yu Tian to comply with our request and play for the family again. ” Yu Yong said to him with a stern expression on his face.

"I understand." Yu Rou said after a moment of silence.

A while later, Yu Rou left her parents residence and returned to her own place.

On the way home, he pondered how he should pass this news to Yu Tian and convince him to play for the family again.

As soon as he returned, Yu Rou went straight to Yuan's room. However, he did not immediately enter his room and stood outside in front of the door for a few minutes.

"What's up, Yu Rou?" Yuan's voice echoed from within the room.

Yu Rou took a deep breath before entering the room, and she said in a serious voice, "I spoke to father and mother today."

"I knew. Meixiu told me.” Yuan said.

“What are you talking about this time? Is your grade down again?” Yuan spoke in a joking voice.

However, Yu Rou did not smile, nor did she answer her question.

"What's up, Yu Rou?" Yuan asked him, feeling something wrong from the calm atmosphere.

“Well you might not like what I'm going to tell you, but this is something I have to tell you,” Yu Rou said, and he started telling me about what happened at his meeting with their parents as well as his conversation.

“Because other families have brought their music to Cultivation Online, mom and dad decided to do the same, and they want you to start playing the instrument again.” Yu Rou said to him, ignoring the part about not admitting it if she refused for now.

“”

"Yes, they want you to start playing the game but purely focus on the music."

After a moment of silence, Yuan said in a sighing voice, “If I do not experience the beautiful world that is Online Cultivation, I will probably agree. However, I have a lot of things to do in the game, so I won't have time to do what they want. Even if I have time, I refuse to play that musical instrument for them.”

Yu Rou started sweating when she heard Yuan's decision, and she started trying to convince him, “Why don't you think about it anymore, brother? You will be able to return to the previous highlights, and people will eventually stop looking down on you. I also want to hear you play music again.”

However, Yuan remained reluctant and said, “I don't need to think about it. I want to explore the world of cultivation of my own free will. If you want to listen to my music, let me know and I'll play it for you, Yu Rou.”

“”

It was Yu Rou's turn to remain silent this time, and after a moment of silence, she spoke in a voice almost crying, “My brother I didn't want to tell you this at first because I knew it would hurt you, I didn't want to, but Mom and Dad said that if you don't comply, they will reject you and expel you from home”

"Oh, so"

Although Yuan's voice remained somewhat calm, he could feel a painful sensation in his heart for a few seconds after learning that he might not be recognized. After all, anyone would feel betrayed if their parents said that they would not disavow them without joking.

Moments later, Yuan said in a calm but rather cold voice, “If they will disavow me solely because I don't want to work as a puppet for them anymore, then they can disavow me. I don't want to spend the rest of my life as a doll. Instead, I want to live the rest of my life to the fullest so that I have no regrets when I definitely graduate. ”

“T-But where are you going, brother?! Think about this for a moment! You will not survive on your own! And don't make it sound like you're going to die anytime soon because you're not going to die! Even Doctor Wang says that you are getting healthier!”

“This will be fine, Yu Rou. I'll think of something, and this is a great opportunity to finally free you from responsibility and live a normal life. ”

"No! I don't want that! I want to keep looking after you forever!” Yu Rou quickly refused.

“You know you can't do that, Yu Rou. After all, you also have your own life to live. ” Yuan sighed, wondering what she could say to convince her younger sister to give up on her so that she too could live her life to the fullest.
