After the winter solstice, the weather in Jingdu kept getting colder and colder.
Yun Xi cheated Yun Yuanfeng out of 3,000 yuan for her birthday gift in order to buy a phone. Liang Xiuqin fussed about that for a long time.
After all, in this era, 3,000 yuan was almost the same amount as the cost of a month’s worth of food.
To buy a phone that cost the same amount as one month’s worth of food, in Liang Xiuqin’s view, was unseemly and also would probably be a distraction from her schoolwork.
But since Yun Yuanfeng had agreed, Liang Xiuqin couldn’t object.
When Yun Xi took out the phone that had been given to her by Mu Feichi, her mother felt infuriated.
In order to get back at her, Liang Xiuqin deliberately talked about Yun Xi’s grades in front of Yun Yuanfeng and warned her that if her final exam scores dropped, her phone would be confiscated.
Yun Yuanfeng was also worried about Yun Xi’s grades. After all, the prestige of the university she ended up going to would affect her ability to get a good job in the future.
Yun Xi had repeatedly a.s.sured him that her academic performance wouldn’t decline. Only then was she let off the hook.
Since Mu Feichi had been injured, he stayed at home. The employees of the Mu Corporation sent the company’s doc.u.ments to the sentry post every day.
Every day, she went up the mountain to help Mu Feichi change his bandages. Listening to the reports from his subordinates, Yun Xi surmised that the cooperation project didn’t seem to be going well at this time.
She didn’t know if Mu Feichi was setting a trap for someone or if there was some other reason, but it was rare to see him, the powerful head of a clan, so troubled.
The seeming calm before the storm that she felt brewing made her feel nervous.
Mu Feichi was still as busy as usual, while Yun Xi attended cla.s.ses every day and took leaves of absence on the weekend to train in the mountains.
Any news she heard when she was with him was all news that Mu Feichi wanted her to hear, and anything else was not her affair.
…
Looking at the information she was holding at the moment, Yun Xi seemed a little surprised. Suddenly, she looked at Mu Feichi, who seemed as if he hadn’t woken up yet.
“The Han family is also involved? This…seems unlikely…?”
According to the knowledge that she’d gained from her previous life, the Han family had been involved in many industries and businesses, especially in the world of finance, and was involved at a level above the other three great clans.
It was also because of the financial support from the business community that the Han family had been able to firmly establish its position as one of these four most prominent families.
