928 Yun Lian Was Defeated
“I saw it more clearly than Yun Zhu. It was clearly written with only your name, Yun Xi. Ma Yan is easy to fool, but I’m not!”
Yun Lian’s question was also within Yun Xi’s expectations. They had fought for so many years, how could she not know her arrogant and domineering personality?
The two of them had gone to the countryside to volunteer for teaching, hoping that Yun Lian would change her personality in another environment, but now it seemed that she had been living too comfortably these days, being spoiled by Wu Hang to the point of being lawless. She really thought of herself as a Princess and wanted everyone to revolve around her.
Looking at the shrewdness in Yun Lian’s eyes, Yun Xi thought to herself, ‘It’s impossible to change her character. She’s just as greedy as before.’
“If it was really me, what can you do about it?”
Yun Xi leaned back on the sofa with his legs crossed, exuding a cold aura that made Yun Lian shiver and lose half of her confidence.
“Then why did you lie to everyone? Aren’t you afraid that I’ll tell everyone the truth?” Yun Lian whispered into Yun Xi’s ear with an evil smile.
“Why should I be afraid?”
Yun Xi felt that it was very strange. Sometimes, the words that Yun Lian said were very similar to the bad characters in the current popular movies and television dramas. These threatening words were of no use to her.
Besides, her family would always believe in her, and she didn’t care about others. Why should she be afraid of people who had no relationship with her? It would be so tiring.
She did not say these words to Yun Lian. If she did, Yun Lian would probably only scoff at her. It was better to save her breath.
“As long as I say it, everyone will think that you’re not telling the truth. Ma Yan and the others will pester you about talking nonsense again!”
“But if you add me in, you can consider me not telling anyone about this. How about it?” Yun Lian said confidently to Yun Xi, thinking that she had no reason to refuse due to the pressure.
However, why would Yun Xi care? In her eyes, Yun Lian was like a clown. It was a waste of her time to pay attention to her, but she was really disturbing her peace and quiet.
“It won’t matter much even if you told on me.”
After hearing this, Yun Lian’s fox-like eyes widened, and her face was filled with disbelief. Just as she was about to speak, she was interrupted by Yun Xi.
“Say whatever you want to say. I don’t care, and I won’t bring you guys in. Why do I have to do it for you guys just because you asked? Are we even on good terms?”
“By the way, can you stop nagging in my ear? it’s really noisy.” Yun Xi looked at Yun Lian with a frown.
Seeing this, Yun Lian could only shut her mouth and sit beside Wu Hang.
As the two of them were not speaking very loudly and the television was turned on quite loudly, the others did not hear their conversation. Wu Hang just thought that the two sisters had not seen each other for a long time and were reminiscing about the past, so he did not take it to heart.
However, looking at Yun Lian’s expression, it was clear that she had not given up and was planning something.
Yun Yang turned his head and winked at Yun Xi, wanting to know what had happened. Yun Xi shook her head at him, indicating that it was inconvenient to do so and that she would tell him when they got back. Yun Yang could only give up and turn back to watch the television.
It was almost 4:00 PM, and Yun Xi felt that it was almost time to leave. She still wanted to visit her good friends at night, so she couldn’t stay too late.
Chen Li also remembered her daughter’s words about the rental of the driver and car ending at 4:00 PM. She went to the field early to call her husband, who was sweating all over from work, back and asked him to take a shower and clean up.
Electronic clocks were not commonly used in the countryside yet. Yun Shan’s family was about to get up to leave when the old-fashioned clock rang four times, but the old lady stopped them and asked them to sit for a while.
The few of them pulled and pulled, and in the end, Chen Li stuffed a red packet into Old Madam Yun’s pocket, ending the matter.
After getting into the car, Yun Xi heaved a sigh of relief. She hadn’t returned to the village for a long time. The villagers were all looking at her with uncomfortable gazes as if they were looking at some rare animal.
If it was not for New Year’s greetings, she really did not want to come back here. In her previous life, she had only been wandering here.
Yun Xi massaged her temples, wanting to drive away those bad thoughts. Suddenly, she felt a burst of warmth on her hand and turned to see Chen Li looking at her with worry.
“Are you feeling unwell? Your hands feel cold.”
“No, mom, I’m just a little tired.” The corners of Yun Xi’s lips curled up as she smiled at Chen Li.
It did not matter what had happened in the past. It was already enough to have these people who loved her now.
