“You…” Liang Xiuqin choked on her words, and her face turned pale with anger.

“Mom, are you trying to get the jade pendant?”

Yun Xi smirked mockingly, her eyes s.h.i.+ning with undisguised contempt. “Oh, I forgot to tell you, but I asked Madame Chen to hold onto the jade pendant for me. You could go to the Chen family’s house to steal it if you dare. Haven’t you stolen from the Jiang family once? If you steal from the Chen family, perhaps Yun Ziling really will be able to marry into the Jiang family.”

“You! You wretched girl, you shut up! Don’t think I can’t handle you.”

Liang Xiuqin was trembling with anger at being threatened by Yun Xi face to face.

“I’d already expected that you would try to steal it from my room, so I gave it to Madame Chen earlier. Mom, if you are so desperate for the jade pendant, go to the Chen family home to pick it up yourself. If you offend the Chen family or someone from the Chen family again and get sent to jail as a thief, I wonder whether or not Dad will bail you out? The Chen family doesn’t owe me any more favors now. The favors that the Chen family owed me before have all been used up by you. Now you want to steal from me, yet also want me to rescue you whenever you’re in trouble. Wouldn’t you say that is a bit much?”

“You, how dare you threaten me?”

Yun Xi’s every word had insulted her, and the word “steal” alone was enough to make her eyelids twitch with anger.

This wretched girl had dared to threaten her with what had happened at the auction.

“Not a threat, just a reminder. Don’t forget the pain just because the scar has healed.”

Her mother’s selfishness and stinginess were truly unsightly, and Yun Xi couldn’t bear to look at her another moment.

“Sister, why are you talking to Mom like this? You are crossing the line. Second Young Master Jiang likes me, and Mom did all this for your sake. If in the future word spreads that Second Young Master Jiang looks down on you, it won’t look good for you. Mom is doing all of this for your benefit, yet you don’t even appreciate it.”

“Really! How impressive for you to be so understanding of all of Mom’s efforts.”

Yun Ziling was trying to throw her under the bus by pretending to be a Goody Two-shoes, but she wasn’t falling for it.

Just as she was about to turn and finish walking upstairs, she suddenly thought of something and glanced at Liang Xiuqin coldly.

“Mom, I will warn you one last time. If you dare to break in my door to poke your nose around again, I may decide to cause a scene. So then don’t blame me for spilling the beans on everything you’ve done to Dad. A slap might not hurt and won’t make you learn your lesson, but if the whip is used, then I can’t guarantee you that you won’t be ripped apart. You’d better think it through. Of course, if you want to dig your own grave, I’m happy to oblige.”
