Chapter 876: She Was in Control
“Concerning this matter, it was clearly your father’s fault, and he should be held responsible. What he has done has wronged both our families and my father.”
“Didn’t you hear what your mother just said? She admitted herself that she seduced my father. She was the one who came in between my parents. She is shameless. Is she thinking of having someone else pay for her shamelessness?”
She had finally understood the meaning of being shameless today. People who were willing to stoop very low are very hard to defeat.
Yun Xi knew very well that Yun Yuanfeng would not take responsibility for what had happened today. That was why she hadn’t stopped Liang Xinyi from drugging her father and having her mother get into trouble.
She’d even played along with them and brought her uncle over to witness their show.
After all, it wasn’t anything glorious. Chen Lixue had been bold enough to admit before her uncle that she did not love him and that she wanted the director’s wife position. It was obvious that she hadn’t given herself any room to retreat.
Unfortunately, she had underestimated the selfishness of Yun Yuanfeng.
Before he had been firmly ensconced as a director, both mother and daughter’s want for a better status seemed impossible.
Even though he was firmly in his director position, there was still the problem of their presence in the Yun family. Yun Xi could simply produce the video, and Yun Yuanfeng would easily dispel the thought of letting Chen Lixue take the director wife’s position.
The story of an affair of a younger sister’s husband with his brother-in-law’s wife was going to be a joke worth telling over meals. But if anyone had accused Director Yun of visiting a prost.i.tute, it would not be a funny joke any longer.
The ball was in her court. Liang Xinyi wouldn’t be able to overturn anything.
Yun Xi glanced at her uncle, turned, and looked at Liang Xinyi, whose face had turned red. “Liang Xinyi, you should be on your father’s side now rather than on your mother’s, encouraging her to become my stepmother. With me and Grandpa here, do you really think it is possible for your mother to marry into the Yun family?”
“You…” Yun Xi’s words were tantamount to trying to sow discord between her and her father.
Seeing that her innermost thoughts had been revealed, Liang Xinyi turned pale. She looked at Liang Weimin and saw that his eyes were turned to look at her face, as cold as the slice of a knife.
“You guys clean up properly. I’ll go to the front desk and get the first aid box. Dad, if you are nauseated, don’t drive. They have a driver at the resort. Let them take you to the hospital for an examination first.”
Yun Xi took a deep breath of cold air after she came out of the room. She looked up and saw Jiang Henglin standing outside. She thought of the absurd request he had just made, sneered, and turned to walk toward her room.
“Yun Xi, aren’t you afraid that if the news of today’s event gets leaked, it will affect your father’s political career? Don’t forget, I just need to say a few words to my father, and your father will have endless trouble.”
Yun Xi paused, turned her body halfway around, and looked at the proud chap behind her, playfully smiling.
“Jiang Henglin, did you soak too long in the pool and cause water to enter into your brain? Did something happen today? Do you have any evidence? Even if Uncle Jiang believes what you have said or if you find a witness, do you think that given Uncle Jiang’s personality and conduct, he would do such a despicable thing?”
In the political world, there were many people who would rub salt into your wounds, but given the relations.h.i.+p between the Jiang family and the Yun family, Uncle Jiang would never stoop so low.
Jiang Henglin’s threats to her over such a small matter were really dishonorable.
“How do you know he won’t? If he won’t, perhaps the political opponents of your father might.”
“If that’s the case, my father will deal with it. After what has happened today, he ought to be responsible for his own actions. What does this have to do with me? You just want me to beg you. I have two words for you—FAT CHANCE!”
This man really had holes in his brain. Why would he get so much satisfaction by seeing her beg?
She would definitely never beg him for anything.
