Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Early in the morning on New Year’s Day, Xiao Jinglin sent Yun Xi back to the military region residences. Yun Xi got out of the car and quietly walked to her room.
Before she could reach her room, she saw Yun Chuhan squatting at the door, nodding and dozing off like a chicken pecking at rice. It seemed like she had come to wait by her door at the break of dawn just to get ahold of her, and had been squatting there for a long time.
To catch Yun Xi’s misbehavior, she certainly spared no effort!
Stepping forward lightly, she lifted her foot, and kicked Yun Chuhan’s leg. She gazed down at the girl who was trying to sneak up on her, and the thought of her getting up to all sorts of mischief felt rather amusing.
If she ever became smart enough to deal with her father’s mistress—who was about to move in and become their stepmother, she may have a chance of taking over the Yun family in the future. However, it was a pity that her cleverness were always used in the wrong places.
!!
“Hey! Yun Chuhan, wake up!”
Seeing her looking unconscious, Yun Xi lifted her foot and kicked again. Yun Chuhan, whose legs had gone numb, collapsed to the ground and immediately woke up.

“What, what?!” Yun Chuhan sat on the ground with her legs numb and raised her head in a daze.
“You’re blocking the entrance to my room at the break of dawn. I should be the one asking what the heck you’re doing!”
“I-I…”
Yun Chuhan blinked and looked up. After a while, she finally came back to her senses, and pounded at her numb legs.
“Sister, you didn’t come home last night! You stayed out all night at your age, and you’re not even afraid of getting questioned by Father. If you don’t care about your reputation, you should at least think of our family’s pride, right?”
It was clear to everyone what her father’s intentions were. For the chance of latching onto the Young Commander and rubbing off on his status, he couldn’t care less about the pride of the Yun family. He instead wished she would cling to him as much as she could!
......
Still, she could not stand Yun Xi’s smug face. Why was it that she could spend New Year’s Eve at Mu Mansion, while the rest of them were not even worthy enough to wors.h.i.+p him from within the same room?
“You should be well aware of dad’s response when you said that the last time. Even if I don’t come home and end up spending the night at Mu Mansion, do you think the Young Commander wouldn’t be able to spare me a room?”
Yun Xi saw right through the jealousy and dissatisfaction in Yun Chuhan’s ashen face.
“Yun Chuhan, save your petty thoughts. Don’t think that I don’t know what you’re trying to do. If you have the time to tackle me, don’t you think it’s better if you focus on more pressing matters. Our father is marrying that woman soon, and once she comes through our door, you will have a new younger brother. Let’s not forget what Yun Ziling has become. If I really do marry into the Mu family, do you think I would still want anything to do with the Yun family? If you really want to be the head of the family, don’t waste your efforts on me. Otherwise…”
She looked down at her condescendingly, with her eyes filled with such piercing coldness that sent s.h.i.+vers down Yun Chuhan’s body.
“I wouldn’t mind sending you away to accompany Yun Ziling. After all, the two of you did grow up together, so you have a deep sisterly bond, don’t you?”
“You… a-are you threatening me?” There was no way that Yun Chuhan wouldn’t understand the meaning behind those words. It was exactly because she clearly understood it that it made her even more afraid of this eldest sister of hers.
“That’s right. I am threatening you. If you can spare the effort to tackle me, then you should use that brain of yours to deal with your future stepmother. She’s not someone you should underestimate!”
Before Yun Chuhan could say another word, Yun Xi turned around and entered her room, slamming the door shut with a loud bang. Yun Chuhan sat completely stumped at the door. It took a long while for her to digest what Yun Xi had just said. Then, she stood up in a daze and limped back to her room.
Her father had not come back last night either, and she could clearly sense the danger that her stepmother entailed. Yun Xi was going to marry her way up in the future. Even if Yun Chuhan wanted to be a mistress in their love affair, she could never win against her eldest sister. So it was the wise choice to hold on tightly to what was already hers.
