Chapter 120 - Pretend to Be a Pig to Prey on a Tiger (1/2)
Back home, Yun Xi stood at the brightly lit gate and took deep breaths as she calmed herself down.
She’d won the battle, and this was the happiest she had ever been in both of her lifetimes.
There was still a good show awaiting her inside the house, but she couldn’t appear too obviously smug.
Only by stealthily pretending to be a pig while preying on a tiger could she be as deadly.
Sure enough, as soon as she stepped into the living room, she felt the grave vibe.
Grandpa and her father were sitting on the sofa. Liang Xiuqin, Yun Ziling, and Liang Xinyi were standing off to the side. All three of them had sulky expressions.
As she approached, Yun Xi could see a red five-fingered mark on her mother’s face and that her eyes were red.
When her mother saw Yun Xi returning, her eyes fired daggers at her, as if she wished she could tear her into pieces.
“Grandpa, Dad, I’m back!”
Standing in front of the sofa, Yun Xi held herself in a calm and composed manner, as if she hadn’t been bothered at all by what had happened at the auction.
When the old man saw Yun Xi coming home, he sighed happily. Compared to the brainless Yun Ziling, Yun Xi had really helped the Yun family maintain their dignity.
He felt completely relieved that his decision to let her come back home seemed to have been the right decision.
“Yun Xi, Dad knows what has happened tonight. Your mother and your sister have done such a shameful thing. Over at Mrs. Chen’s…”
“I don’t know what Mrs. Chen thinks. After such an enormous scandal happened, it appeared as if we had basically ruined her auction. In the presence of so many rich and famous people, the Chen family has suffered a terrible humiliation. I dared not ask whether she planned on making the Yun family pay her reparations. However, she told me I should come over to the Chen family’s house to chat with her the next time I’m free.”
Upon hearing this, Yun Yuanfeng’s eyes lit up, and a smile finally appeared on his gloomy face.
