Chapter 396 - Chapter 396: Chapter Three -Hundred and Ninety-Six: Unease (2/2)

‘Gu Wei’s a little different from usual,’ Yun Liu thought, but she couldn’t tell what was different. After all, she hadn’t returned to the Yun family for too long a time. She hadn’t returned since the Yun family transferred Yun

Entertainment to her and she took complete control of the company. Since her goal was achieved, she’d lost the patience to pretend and play house with them.

Therefore, she felt a little guilty and panicked when she saw Gu Wei and Yun Zhang just then. However, Yun Zhang was as gentle as ever to her, and Gu Wei didn’t say anything. If they were unhappy with her, with Gu Wei’s personality, she would probably slap her to vent her anger.

Even so, Yun Liu felt an inexplicable uneasiness in her heart. She looked at Yun Zhang and asked, “Yun Zhang, what are you and Mom here at the Shi family’s house for?”

Yun Zhang smiled and put his arm around her shoulders as he answered, “Mom came to ask Auntie Shi for help; I just happened to be free today, so I came with her. I didn’t expect you to be here, too.”

He turned his head to ask Shi Nian, “How are your injuries?”

Shi Nian looked at Yun Zhang judgingly but still nodded. He touched his legs and said, “They’re alright. It’s nothing serious. I’m slowly recovering.”

Yun Liu pressed her lips together and smiled as she watched Yun Zhang and Shi Nian. She knew Shi Nian wasn’t injured at all; it was a secret that belonged to her and Shi Nian. ‘Even if Yun Nan also knows, I’ve already successfully torn a hole between her and Shi Nian, allowing me to step in,’ Yun Liu thought.

Lan Long was her backer, but she still chose to keep a few cards hidden from him and didn’t tell him the Shi brothers’ secret. This was the secret between her and the Shi family—the ladder that could allow her to enter the family.

Shi Nian and Yun Zhang chatted a little about business matters. Yun Zhang spoke confidently, a distinct change from his previous humble and shrinking attitude before Shi Nian, and Yun Liu couldn’t help but feel surprised. She turned to look at Yun Zhang’s side profile, slightly lost in thought.

Not long after, Shi Xiu ran out excitedly and stated, “Yun Liu, come with me to the company quickly. Yun Nan says she wants us to figure out the early drafts first. We have to speed up and get the filming going!”

Yun Liu couldn’t help but secretly feel smug. ‘I finally got Yun Nan under my thumb! she inwardly crowed. ‘No matter what, to protect herposition in the Shi family, Yun Nan couldn’t stubbornly defy the Shi family straight on, right? And I helped out both Shi Nian and Shi Xiu. Even if those two siblings didn’t help me, with Auntie Xu Yun there, Yun Nan had no choice but to give in!’

Yun Liu hid her victorious glee and replied calmly, “There’s no rush. Our elders are all here today, so why don’t we do it some other time?”

Shi Xiu hurriedly said, “Oh, come on! Why wait for some other time? Our time is most precious, you know! Hurry up and go! Shi Nian, Yun Nan is busy entertaining the guests with Mom. Do you want to come with me to the company to relax?” As she asked that question, Shi Xiu placed her hand on Shi Nian’s shoulder and inconspicuously gave it a light squeeze..
