Chapter 31: Why Do I Need To Answer To You?
“Son, how do you know those people?” Once the people from Hong Clan left, Shui Xiaolian anxiously pulled Yan Huang’s hand and asked him worriedly .
“They feel that I’m a genius . They are afraid of my capabilities and want to become like me,” Yan Huang replied calmly .
“Huh?” Shui Xiaolian was confused .
“Mother, I’m going to tell you something . Prepare yourself!” Yan Huang made a decision in his heart as he looked at Shui Xiaolian .
Yan Huang wanted to wait for a better time before telling his parents the truth, but after experiencing what happened today, he wanted to start changing his parent’s life as soon as possible . He wanted them to lead a good life from today onwards . Hence, he decided to tell his mother the truth now .

At 6 pm, Shui Xiaolian closed the Hundred Herbs House and brought Yan Huang to the Yan family steel business in the Northside of Jiangning city .
The Yan family consisted of three generations . Even though every one of them had their own family, they still gathered together to have a meal together .
At 6:30 pm, Yan Huang entered a traditional house with three halls . The Yan family steel business was situated here . The moment he entered, he could smell the smoke in the air . The room was extremely hot .
At the backyard of the Yan family steel business, there was a huge, round table . The 14 members of the Yan family had their dinner here . However, today, Yan Huang’s cousins, Yan Pengfei and Yan Yuxuan didn’t come . Thus, there were only 12 people .
“Yan Huang, you are back?” Yan Haoren was sitting at the seat facing the main door . His hair was white and his face was slightly red . This was Yan Huang’s grandfather .
“Yes, Grandfather,” Yan Huang replied softly . He sat down beside his father . The other people took their seats too .
“Yan Huang, you are back today . Is the food in Jiangnan city better or do you like the food here in Jiangning city?” Yan Huang’s Fourth Aunt, Wang Nannan, was the one who asked this question . She was a plump lady .
Fourth Uncle, Yan Mingzu, was sitting beside Yan Haoren . Yan Huang’s grandmother, Xiao Xinlan, was sitting beside Yan Mingzu .

A traditional big family like Yan Huang’s placed much importance on manners . The head of the family, Yan Haoren and Xiao Xinlan, sat at the two seats facing the main door . The people sitting on the left side of the head of the family had a higher status than the people who sat on the right side . The further away they sat from the head of the family, the lower their status was .
His Fourth Aunt and Fourth Uncle sat on the right side of the head of the family . That meant that they were only slightly lower in terms of status when compared with his oldest uncle, Yan Mingguang .
His oldest uncle was the person in charge of the Yan family steel business . Hence, his position in the family was irreplaceable . However, his fourth uncle was able to have such a high status because his grandmother favored them .
In the Yan family, Xiao Xinlan loved her youngest son the most .
As someone who had lived for more than 5000 years, Yan Huang immediately understood why his aunt said this when he saw Yan Xiaowu sitting beside her .
Yan Huang sat on his seat and slowly ate the food . There were no emotions on his face .
Wang Nannan was a scheming woman .
She didn’t feel angry when she got ignored by Yan Huang . She gave a slight smile and answered her own question, “The Jiangnan city is a prosperous city . There must be much good food over there . The food there has to be nicer . Yan Huang, how much does it cost to have a meal at Jiangnan city? Is it expensive? When are you going to bring Yan Xiaowu over? He wants to try the food there too . ”

The entire family knew that Yan Huang’s father, Yan Mingyao, and Shui Xiaolian spent a huge sum of money to send Yan Huang to Jiangnan city to study . Most of Yan Huang’s school fees were given by the family .
If Yan Huang’s results were as good as Yan Pengfei, they were fine with paying the school fees . However, everyone knew that Yan Huang’s results were bad . He was in the top 1000 in his school during the last exam . He had no chance of entering university .
This caused everyone to feel that it was a waste of money to send Yan Huang to study .
Wang Nannan mentioned her son, Yan Xiaowu, because she wanted to send him to Jiangnan First High too . Her son would be entering high school next year and his results were not that bad .
Hence, Wang Nannan purposely mentioned about how expensive Jiangnan city was . As expected, Xiao Xinlan said unhappily, “Yan Huang, the food outside is not healthy . Don’t eat too much of it . ”
Yan Huang sneered in his heart . I stay in the dormitory by myself . If I don’t order food delivery, what am I supposed to eat? The air? However, he didn’t explain himself . He just smiled coldly at Wang Nannan and Xiao Xinlan .
The longer someone lived, the calmer one was when meeting any situations . Most old people were like this .
Yan Huang had already lived for more than 5000 years . Thus, when he met ‘little children’ who only lived for less than 100 years, he felt like their elder .
Yes . I have been living for more than 5000 years . You all must respect me .
I am the father of the human race . I am the founder of cultivation . I am Emperor Yan Huang who rules over the human race . I am high and mighty . Do I have to explain my actions to you? This is so funny!
In other words, he was saying as he didn’t need to answer to them at all .
Wang Nannan was elated when Xiao Xinlan spoke . She widened her eyes and waited for Yan Huang to make a fool of himself .
Wang Nannan knew that Yan Huang was an honest and dumb person . He was sensitive and weak . Normally, if he was scolded for no reason, he would appear frightened, anxious, and helpless .
Wang Nannan had been using this method for a long time . Actually, her son, Yan Xiaowu, didn’t have good results either . His results were actually even worse than Yan Huang’s . All the things that she said were all bullshit .
What Wang Nannan wanted to do was to leave the impression that Yan Huang was weak and dumb . If someone like Yan Huang could study at Jiangnan First High, why couldn’t her son go there too?
Wang Nannan was curious why Shui Xiaolian didn’t react today . Last time, she jumped up and spoke up for her son whenever someone talked bad about him . Today, she just sat there absent-mindedly .
After some time, Wang Nannan got even more puzzled . Yan Huang didn’t react either . He just remained calm and slowly ate his food after Xiao Xinlan reprimanded him . He looked as though he was enjoying the food today .
