This person was really amazing, using just a few words to get her mother to give up on the right to stay in this room.

However, Shen Ruojing didn’t say much about this.

She had always been more indifferent in terms of emotions. Since her grandmother had given up on her mother, then there was no need for her mother to return to the Yun Family.

She had everything calculated clearly.

Yun Zhengyang and Madam Yun had gifted Royal Ocean Entertainment to them. That could be considered the medical fees for saving Yun Zhengyang’s life.

As for the rest of the people… it was quite good to keep their distance from them too.

With more people, there’d be more problems! So many troublesome matters would seriously affect her retired life.

She then decided to drive overnight later and leave with Shen Qianhui.

However, before she said anything, she heard a crisp and solemn voice. “Hold on!”

Shen Ruojing was slightly surprised as she looked at the young lady who had spoken up—Yun Wei.

Yun Wei’s countenance was grim and she took a step forward, standing in front of Shen Qianhui. “Aunt, this is your mother’s room. You can just stay here! No one has the right to chase you away!”

Shen Ruojing. “?”

She looked at Shen Qianhui and realized that her mother seemed a little startled as well, her eyes turning a little red.

At this moment, Madam Yun and Yun Zhengyang who heard the commotion came over. The moment they stepped into the room, they heard Yun Wei’s words. Hence, Madam Yun’s expression instantly darkened. “Shen Wanxian, what right do you have to bully Qianhui?! She is Aunt’s biological daughter!”

Madam Yun had held it in when her sister-in-law bullied her.

After all, this time around, they were the ones who had to ask her for a favor.

However, Shen Qianhui was the real owner of this bedroom. What right did Shen Wanxian have to chase her out?

Shen Wanxian frowned.

She didn’t expect such a situation to happen.

When she had the furniture changed, although Madam Yun was dissatisfied, she didn’t say a single word and held in her anger.

As for Yun Wei, she was usually the one who abided by rules and regulations the most, showing respect to the seniors and love to the juniors. She never went on to rebut her seniors. However, to think that Yun Wei was going against her words as well?

The two of them must be taking this opportunity to vent!

Shen Wanxian ignored the two of them and looked at Yun Zhengyang. “Eldest Brother, I have no intention of chasing Sister away. I just came to take Mother’s belongings, but Sister felt that we disturbed her…”

Yun Wei retorted, “What do you mean Aunt felt that we disturbed her? You were the one who…”

“Enough!” Yun Zhengyang held great prestige in the family. Despite being a dignified and graceful man, his tone now sounded slightly solemn. Hence, Yun Wei didn’t say anything and held in her anger.

Shen Wanxian, on the other hand, felt smug.

She knew that this brother of hers would definitely place the Yun Family first and not let his emotion disturb his decision-making.

He also wouldn’t bother with tricks that were used between women.

However, when she thought like this, she heard Yun Zhengyang say, “Since Qianhui feels that you guys have disturbed her, then you guys shouldn’t come without permission anymore.”

“…”

Shen Wanxian immediately stared at him in shock.

Even Shen Ruojing raised her peach blossom eyes, looking at this ‘uncle’ seriously for the first time.

Shen Wanxian clenched her fists. “Brother, Old Master Bai is used to seeing good stuff in the capital, and it isn’t formal enough for us to play host to him with those porcelain tea sets that we have at home. Only the blue and white jade porcelain set that Mother left behind can be brought out. I’m also doing this for the Yun Family, not wanting to be a bad host to the old master! Haven’t you always wanted to forge a good relationship with the Bai Family?”

There was a hint of threat in her words.

Shen Ruojing pursed her lips as well.

Shen Qianhui might not be aware of this, but she was. Yun Zhengyang and Madam Yun had always wanted to forge a connection with the Bai Family so that they’d have the backing to reject the marriage agreement with the Qian Family.

That was why Madam Yun and Yun Wei allowed themselves to put up with all this nonsense.

Now that Shen Wanxian brought this matter up again, Shen Ruojing would understand even if Yun Zhengyang were to choose to give in…

She was just thinking of this when she heard Yun Zhengyang saying righteously, “Did you ask Qianhui’s opinion for using those things?”

Shen Wanxian was stunned and blurted, “What?”

After that, Yun Zhengyang pursed his lips and pushed up his glasses. He said, “After Aunt passed away, she only left instructions to give you 5% of the shares. However, she didn’t mention the allocation of the other things, so I didn’t do anything to them. Since Qianhui is back now, then these things rightfully belong to her!

“So, did she agree to let you borrow them?”

Upon hearing this, Shen Wanxian clenched her fists tightly.

She was very clear about what good items her mother had left behind! Just those antiques alone were worth a fortune.

However, after her mother passed away, Yun Zhengyang hadn’t dealt with these items. Hence, she thought that Yun Zhengyang wanted to keep them for himself.

But to think that he wanted to give them to Shen Qianhui?

Shen Wanxian took a deep breath and said, “Brother, I’m using these things to host Old Master Bai! I’m doing this for the family’s sake!”

Yun Zhengyang looked at Yun Wei, a hint of guilt appearing in his gaze, but the words he said were righteous. “What hasn’t the old master seen in his lifetime? He probably wouldn’t care for Aunt’s antiques. We can’t compare to the capital’s four great families, so we don’t have to be so submissive to them, losing our Yun Family’s backbone!”

Shen Wanxian. “!!!”

If he really didn’t care, how could he have passed her the banquet organizing rights? He was clearly trying to defend Shen Qianhui!

Yun Zhengyang then gave the final order. “Alright, it’s late now. Why are you guys all crowding around in Qianhui’s room? Everyone can leave. Don’t affect my cousin’s rest.”

After saying this, he took the lead to leave.

Seeing this, Shen Wanxian took a deep breath and had no choice but to follow after him.

She knew very well that it was just a coincidence that Old Master Bai would come. Perhaps he had taken a fancy to the Yun Family’s reputation as the wealthiest family in Ford City. So, there was no way that she’d be able to do anything about this.

She said calmly, “Brother, I’m also doing this for the Yun Family. I’m afraid that we’d lose face.”

Yun Zhengyang didn’t want to fall out with Shen Wanxian either. Seeing her lowering her stand, he said, “We’ll have to trouble you to prepare for Old Master Bai’s visit.”

“It’s no trouble…”

The group chatted as they walked away, leaving only Shen Ruojing’s family in the room again.

Shen Ruojing then looked in the direction they left in. For some reason, she felt that the Yun Family were no longer relatives whom she would feel disdain for. She shouldn’t fear that they might bring her trouble anymore.

In any case, she had a younger female cousin, Yun Wei, who would ‘bite people’.

There was also an aunt who was innocent but was willing to stand up for her mother when her mother was bullied.

As for her uncle, although he wasn’t good with words, he was always trying to make amends.

Even that ‘Chūnibyō*’ cousin, Yun Yiheng, seemed a little cuter in her eyes now.

Shen Ruojing looked at Shen Qianhui, noticing that her mom’s expression didn’t have that look of determination and hurt from before anymore. Instead, her gaze seemed to reflect that she felt touched, and it was filled with anticipation, a craving for kinship.

(…Forget it.)

As an orphan, the flaw in her mother’s character was very obvious. She just wanted kin. Only then would she have a sense of security.

Therefore, although it was very troublesome, it was better for her to acknowledge her uncle’s family.

At the thought of this, Shen Ruojing entered the room and called Lu Hui. The other party picked up the call very quickly. “Boss, what’s the matter?”

Shen Ruojing. “Help me check what difficulties the Yun Family has.”

The Yun Family must have encountered a problem that caused them to have to cooperate with the Qian Family. If she could help to resolve the problem, there wouldn’t be a need for the Yun Family to curry favor with the Bai Family. Shen Ruojing also didn’t like the feeling of depending on others, so she decided to help the Yun Family solve the problem from the root.

Lu Hui asked, feeling pleasantly surprised, “You went to Ford City?”

“Hmm.”

Lu Hui then said, “Ford City is quite close to the capital, just slightly over an hour’s drive. Why don’t you go inspect our businesses there?”

“… Please don’t disturb the retiree, thank you.”

Shen Ruojing quickly hung up the call.

Lu Hui. “…”

Early the next morning, Shen Ruojing woke up and practiced Taichi downstairs.

However, she subconsciously looked upstairs.

Matriarch Chu and Chu Cichen said that they were going to stay at the Yun Manor, but she didn’t see him last night. She wondered where this man had gone off to.

This thought had just arisen when she saw a tall man walking over amidst the mist.

Chu Cichen’s body was straight like a javelin. Each step he took seemed as if they had been measured out. People who didn’t know any better might think that he was from the military…

His phoenix eyes were bright. When he saw her, he smiled and then raised the pan-fried bun he had bought. “You haven’t had breakfast yet, right?”

Shen Ruojing stopped what she was doing and asked, “You didn’t stay at the Yun Manor?”

“Hmmm.” Chu Cichen sat on the wooden chair at the side and opened the packet of pan-fried buns. He said casually, “Xiaomeng doesn’t want to stay here. She thinks that there are too many people, so I’ll accompany her. Moreover, it’ll also be easier for me to investigate what happened back then from the villa.”

What happened back then…

Shen Ruojing sat next to him. “Do you have any leads?”

Chu Cichen. “Yes.”
