After some pleasantries, Yun Xi glanced at Yun Ziling, who’d wanted to be the center of attention but had failed miserably.

Yun Ziling was shooting daggers at her with her resentful eyes.

Yun Ziling couldn’t conceal her contempt for Yun Xi. She didn’t hold back from glaring at her.

At this visit, she’d brought gifts for the Chen family. She’d come here on behalf of the Yun family.

Yun Xi, that wretched girl, had come here empty-handed, yet here she was trying to take advantage of the situation.

How dare she act as if she was the center of attention? Her mother was the one who had paid for the gifts, yet she was trying to compete for the limelight. How shameful!

Since she was at the Chen’s home and she had never been there before, Yun Ziling dared not act too presumptuous and had to endure the grievances.

Yun Xi smiled, and then reminded Yun Ziling that the gift was in the car, as she turned to enter the villa courtyard with the butler.

“Sister, didn’t you take the meeting gift?”

Yun Ziling looked displeased. Why should she fetch these things like a servant?

“Aren’t you the one who chose it? I don’t want to take advantage of you, so wouldn’t it seem more sincere if you carried it yourself? Second sister, you came here on behalf of the Yun family, so don’t bring shame on the Yun family.”

Listening to Yun Xi, Yun Ziling was on cloud nine with self-satisfaction.

“So you realize that I came here on behalf of the Yun family? Then follow behind me, don’t talk nonsense, and don’t try to show off.”

Unwilling to see her steal the limelight, Yun Ziling gave her a warning.

She was the proud heiress of the Yun family!

She had grown up with the affluence of the Yun family and had been the center of attention wherever she went. How could a country b.u.mpkin like Yun Xi, who had just recently returned from the countryside, compare to the likes of her?

“All right then! You go on ahead!” Yun Xi looked at the housekeeper, who had a vexed expression on his face, and stepped back behind Yun Ziling.

Jiang Wanyun was pruning flowers in the yard, where many rare varieties of roses and tulips had been planted.

Although they were going into autumn, the entire garden was just as vibrant as it had been in spring.

“Madam, Miss Yun is here!”
