Chapter 41 (1/2)

Yun Xi finally composed herself after getting into the car. She turned to look at Grandfather Jiang, who was bringing her to the Yuns to confront them.

“Grandfather Jiang, do you believe me?”

She must make sure of this.

Otherwise, when her biological mother, Liang Xiuqin, ended up bringing out all sorts of evidence and claims there was a thief when she was the actual thief, the situation would harm Yun Xi instead.

“I’m already an old man, but I still have enough eyesight to see through people. Don’t worry, girl. You’re the granddaughter-in-law that I’ve accepted, so Grandfather Jiang would not let you suffer any injustices!”

“Thank you, Grandfather Jiang!” Squeezing the jade pendant in her hand, Yun Xi sighed quietly.

Regardless if it was this lifetime or the previous one, she’d always had weak familial relations.h.i.+ps. Instead, strangers offered more warmth and kindness to her.

But this also worked out well, since there was less for her to worry about if there was no emotion attached.

In this lifetime, she also needed to properly start her life again, aside from sending the people who’d harmed her straight to h.e.l.l!

However, Grandfather Yun and an old friend had happened to go to the neighboring town to visit their friends from the countryside. They hadn’t returned yet, so Grandfather Jiang and Yun Xi had made a trip to the Yuns for nothing.

As soon as Liang Xiuqin heard that Yun Xi was outside, she took Liang Xinyi and Yun Ziling running to the door. They were terrified that she would disappear again if they were even a second too late.

But she instantly sensed that something was wrong when she saw Grandfather Jiang standing at the door!

She hadn’t expected the wretched girl to actually take the jade pendant to go find Grandfather Jiang!

They couldn’t afford to cross the Jiangs, but she didn’t want to let this star of death into her house either.

She was stuck between a rock and a hard place, so she didn’t know what to do at that moment.

Yun Ziling was terrified that her beautiful dream of marrying into the Jiangs would be dashed, so she quickly grabbed Liang Xiuqin’s hand and quietly whispered into her ear.

“Mom, you have to insist that she stole the jade pendant, no matter what happens, and that she is the fake Yun Xi. If you let her into our house, not only will I lose out on the marriage, but this is also a critical moment for Dad since he is about to get a promotion. What if she impacts Dad’s fortune? Don’t forget; you need to become the wife of the Director!”

There were some differences between the real and fake Yun Xis.
