The reason that marriage was not mentioned instead, was because the Qin family only had Young Master Qin as the sole heir. The Qin family wanted to avoid potentially having her inherit Young Master Qin’s riches if anything were to happen to him. As a result, they directly requested Yun Bixue to be a mistress.
Yun Bixue calmed herself. “Grandmother, I am the head of the Yun family and the next heir in line. To protect the dignity of the Yun family, I obviously can’t become a secret mistress to someone. I will save grandfather within three days.”
Grandfather’s surgery had to be done within four days. So she had to gather enough funds within three days.
“If you can’t do it within three days, head to the Qin family by yourself!”
Old Lady Shen grunted and went back up the stairs. She knew that Yun Bixue was an obstinate person, and it would be unwise to push her over the edge. But if the three days were over and Yun Bixue was unable to gather enough funds, she could not be blamed for taking matters into her own hands.
Yun Bixue returned to her bedroom on the third floor and flopped onto the bed. She emptied her mind, and all her tiredness seemed to melt away in an instant.
She rubbed the area between her eyebrows which was aching slightly and thought about what had happened today. Then she withdrew the gold name card, and on it written in a stately manner was the name “Xie Limo.”
So his name is Xie Limo!
Yun Bixue thought for a moment before putting the name card back into her pocket. Then she drew a pair of keys from the safe and headed toward grandfather’s study room.
She opened the safe in grandfather’s study room and withdrew some documents. When she looked at the signature on it, her eyes were filled with nostalgia and sadness.
After a good while, a tear fell. Yun Bixue wiped it away gently and left with the documents.
The next day, when Yun Bixue came down the stairs, she saw her uncle’s family eating. Yun Mengshi had returned as well. She saw Yun Bixue and immediately approached her happily. “Sister, you have returned. My mother has cooked some nice dishes, why don’t you join us?”
Yun Bixue glanced at Yun Mengshi coldly, and her mouth curled mockingly. Without saying another word, she headed to the door.
Yang Siru immediately shouted towards Old Lady Shen on the second floor, “Mum, you’ve seen it all. See how that wretched girl treats Mengshi. Mengshi was so nice to her, yet she treats Mengshi in that manner. She thinks she’s so great, yet she doesn’t even save father. Just look at her grave-looking face, not even a hint of an expression…”
Yun Bixue didn’t respond to Yang Siru and left without a word. She took the car from the underground garage and headed toward Feng Hua Road’s Samite Mountain Villa. It was a bungalow mountain villa with a rich history, filled with a charm of antiquity. The scenery there was heart-stirring.
Yun Bixue looked at the vines on the stone wall; they were bursting with life. As she couldn’t enter, she took some time just looking around outside the wall. Then she headed to the hospital.
In the VIP suite, Yun Bixue looked at her grandfather, who was still in a coma. She felt tears coming to her eyes.
“Doctor, is my grandfather alright?”
“Miss Yun, Old Master Yun has overworked himself in the past few years, and his condition isn’t so good. If he doesn’t undergo surgery within the next four days, it would be very dangerous for him.” Doctor Yang in a white coat sighed softly.
Yun Bixue nodded her head. For the sake of her grandfather, perhaps it was time to make a decision.
In the afternoon, Yun Bixue kept waiting outside the Su family building. The front desk had informed her that Su Lenghan was absent.
She found the situation a bit ironic. Previously she had been able to enter this place as though it was her own home. It was truly water under the bridge, with everything changed.
