As soon as Yun Xi got home, as she stopped in the front hallway to take off her shoes, Yun Yuanfeng ran over excitedly.
“Yun Xi, you really are daddy’s lucky star! Guess what happened? Someone just called me to say that the investigators who are coming to my company this week are only looking at a few projects, and I don’t have to worry about any of my wrongdoings being discovered. Apparently, the director has been involved in dirty tricks that are much worse than mine. If they found out about his shady business affairs, he would likely lose his position. So I’m going to have a greater chance at promotion now.”
“…” Yun Xi was a little confused, and it took a while for her to digest the meaning of Yun Yuanfeng’s words.
Someone settled it? She hadn’t gone to the Chen family’s house yet!
Who would settle this for her?
Upon thinking about it very carefully, she felt sure that it had to be Mu Feichi. Who else could have done that?
He hadn’t said anything just now, and she’d also said that he didn’t need to intervene. He’d simply settled the matter quietly for her.
What a deep man he was!
It had been a golden opportunity to make her indebted to him, yet he hadn’t jumped on the opportunity. This was very uncharacteristic of him.
“Yun Xi, you are so much better than your mother and your sisters.”
Yun Xi smiled stiffly, glanced at her mother and Yun Ziling’s grim faces, and curled her lips into a sneer. “My mother still thinks I’m a scourge. Don’t rejoice too early, dad.”
“What does that mean, a scourge? Your mother is just ridiculously superst.i.tious. Don’t let her bother you. You are my daughter, and I can distinguish between family and outsiders.”
When he said this, Liang Xinyi’s expression turned sour.
After having been detained at the police station for a week, Liang Xinyi had become even more resilient. Yun Xi couldn’t help but regard her with some admiration.
Resilience is a good thing. She would have less trouble now as she got stronger.
After failing to help her husband, Liang Xiuqin couldn’t help but feel envious of Yun Xi also, but she couldn’t voice her displeasure.
Yun Yuanfeng was as happy as a clam at this moment. She would only get scolded if she poured a bucket of cold water over the atmosphere right now.
Probably because the problem had been solved, Yun Yuanfeng was all excited. “Yun Xi, you have resolved your dad’s crisis. Dad will reward you well. Tell me what you want.”
“Dad, please increase my allowance. The weather is getting cold, and the food in the school cafeteria tastes awful…”
Nothing was better than money. Her allowance was the best idea.
