Chapter 993 - Player Yuan's True Identity
After removing his mask, Yuan placed it on the table in front of him and stared at the crowd with a calm expression.
It was almost as though the world was silent at this moment, as not a single sound could be heard from that location.
"Huh? That's Player Yuan? Doesn't he seem familiar? It's like I have seen him before…"
Some of the people there felt familiarity after seeing his face.
"W-Wait! I-Isn't that Yu Tian?! The legendary music prodigy who recently performed in a concert after disappearing for many years?! I am sure of it! That's Yu Tian! I even watched his performance a few days ago!"
Someone there finally recognized Yuan's face and exclaimed, letting everyone there know of his identity.
Yuan smiled and said, "Indeed, I am that Yu Tian."
The crowd became chaotic after this shocking revelation.
Nobody there could've expected the mysterious Player Yuan to be the missing child prodigy, Yu Tian!
Shortly after Yuan revealed his true identity as Yu Tian, people from all around the world started contacting the Yu Family. However, there was no response from the Yu Family, almost as though they had suddenly disappeared.
Sometime later, Yuan's voice resounded again, "I am sure that some of you are trying to contact the Yu Family even as I am speaking, but I must warn you— you're only wasting your effort."
"Why would you say that, Yu Tian?!" One of the reporters there asked him.
Yuan glanced at the person who just spoke and responded in a cold voice, "Don't address me with that name. I don't want to be associated with that family."
The people there trembled after hearing his cold voice.
"D-Did something happen between you and the Yu Family? Would you be willing to tell us about it?!" Another reporter there asked.
"Of course. That's why I am doing this interview. I am going to answer as many questions as I can." He nodded.
"Anyways, the reason why I don't want to be associated with the Yu Family is because…"
Yuan proceeded to tell the whole world about how the Yu Family had mistreated and abused him since he was a child, treating him as though he was a slave for their own profit.
He told them about how the Yu Family had adopted him only to profit from his talents. He told them about how they would force him to practice day and night without any breaks. He told them about how they forced him to sign an illegal contract when he was still a young child. He told them about how they abandoned him after he became a cripple and how they treated him like trash since then.
When the world learned of all the horrible things the Yu Family had done to him, everyone felt anger in their hearts, and they cursed the Yu Family inwardly.
After talking about all of the bad things the Yu Family had done to him, Yuan started talking about the good things.
He spoke about how his younger sister had sacrificed herself so that she could take care of him for many years despite being two years younger than himself. He spoke about a certain servant who treated him like her own child.
Even though he wanted to drag the Yu Family through dirt, he didn't want those who helped him to be dragged along merely because of their association with the Yu Family, so he spoke about Yu Rou and Meifeng, treating them as though they were his savior.
This way, nobody would dare to mess with them even if they were associated with the Yu Family.
In fact, Yuan even publicly announced that if anyone were to mess with Yu Rou or Meifeng, they would face his wrath.
"Brother…" Yu Rou, who was watching the broadcast with Xia jingyi and White Lotus, brawled her eyes out.
Even though her own family had been exposed for their behavior and will soon be the public's number one enemy, she couldn't help but feel as though a mountain had been lifted from her shoulders.
Sometime later, Yuan said, "Although I want to blame all of my suffering on the Yu Family, that wouldn't be fair, as they were only manipulated by the true masterminds—"
"Oh no! This bastard is going to get us killed!" The investors finally realized Yuan's true intentions, but it was already too late.
Yuan proceeded to name the eight investors that refused to renounce their fortune for his forgiveness and spoke about how they had corrupted the Yu Family, even mentioning the companies they owned.
Immediately after Yuan revealed their names, the named investors started getting phone calls from pretty much everybody on their contact list and more.
"Mister Swanson! It's a disaster! Most of our investors and associates have just announced that they will stop supporting us and even demanded for their money back! At this rate, we'll go bankrupt!"
"Mister Jiang! Please! You need to do something! The Legacy Families are suddenly threatening to destroy us! What is happening?!"
When the four investors that renounced their fortune for Yuan's forgiveness saw the results of their decision, they all sighed in relief, feeling as though they'd just dodged a massive bullet, even though they will soon be losing all of their money.
"Fuck! That fucking bastard! We're ruined!" The eight investors cried, but there was nothing they could do about the situation.
However, Yuan wasn't done just yet.
"Although I cannot do anything against these people that have wronged me by myself, I would like to seek your help. If you can do something about it, please help me get justice. I will owe you a favor— you have my word."
When the powerful families that have been wanting to recruit Yuan heard the last few words of his sentence, they all decided to help him.
'This guy is freaking brutal!' Chairman Lee was sweating buckets as he stood behind Yuan, realizing how lucky he is to not be Yuan's enemy.
