Shi Nian was livid. Yun Nan could tell at a glance that something was wrong with him, so she reached out and pulled him behind her. She calmly stated, “Is Yun Liu injured? Let’s call 911 and send her to the hospital.” Shi Kong was dumbfounded at her response.

Shi Xiu ignored the comment. She pointed at Yun Liu—still making a scene on the ground—and shouted at Yun Zhang, “Why are you being so mean? She’s the one who suddenly rushed over and grabbed my brother!” She then directed her words at Yun Liu, “What’s the matter with you? Don’t you have any sense of shame?! What do you want, blackmail or some such? You’re such a disgrace to the Yun family!”

Yun Xiang and Gu Wei looked mightily displeased at her remark. Yun Zhang helped Yun Liu off the floor, and Yun Liu wept as she collapsed bonelessly in his arms.

Yun Zhang glared at Yun Nan and accused, “This is all your fault! Why are you so troublesome? Can’t you let us be a harmonious family for once?” He gave Yun Nan a look signaling that she should say something instead of leaving the Yun family to hang out to dry. He was used to speaking to Yun Nan ungraciously, so he didn’t think anything was wrong with his tone.

However, Shi Nian was already quite angry with the Yun family, and Yun Zhang’s attitude only added to it. “Since you all hate Yun Nan so much, she’ll have nothing to do with the Yun family in the future! She’s a part of the Shi family now!” Shi Nian declared as he placed an arm around Yun Nan’s shoulder and turned to leave.

Shi Kong looked at Yun Nan’s parents—who only cared about Yun Liu—in disappointment. He shook his head and followed his grandson. Shi Xiu, however, felt unsatisfied. She criticized Yun Liu contemptuously, “You still have the nerve to cry? You really are pretentious!” With those last words, she also left. Chang Yuan didn’t look at the Yun family members as he strode after his boss’s group.

Gu Wei felt saddened as she hugged Yun Liu. She sighed, not knowing what to say. Yun Xiang had a bad feeling about this. ‘Shi Nian actually defended that wretched girl. Then what should I do about the marriage I arranged for her? he worried.

Only Yun Zhang paid any mind to Shi Nian’s words. They continuously buzzed in his ears. ‘So, in others’ eyes, our entire family hated Yun Nan!’

‘m vve? he wondered.

“That d*mn girl! What a royal mess this is! Why can’t she be obedient?! She didn’t even speak up for us! She only cared about climbing the social ladder herself. She just watched us get rejected, and left with no care at all!” Gu Wei griped.

Yun Xiang hatefully concurred, “She’s a backstabbing wretch!”

Yun Zhang stared at the floor tiles under his feet in a daze. It turned out that they do really hate Yun Nan. ‘ What did Yun Nan do wrong?

‘ Yun Nan didn’t give Shi Nian up to Yun Liu. She didn’t listen to ourparents! Yun Zhang gently exhaled and shook his head; he didn’t want to think about it anymore.

Yun Liu saw Yun Zhang’s expression constantly change and became worried. Recently, this fool’s attitude swayed back and forth; she feared he would be led astray by that wretch again.

She broke free from Gu Wei and covered her mouth as she whimpered, “Please just leave me to die. I’m not worthy! I don’t deserve anything in life!” As she spoke, she ran in the direction of the Shi family.

Chang Yuan was the last to leave and trailed behind the group. When he heard the sound of high heels rapidly approaching from behind, he immediately became alert. He used his body to cover Shi Nian and softly cautioned him, “Look out!”

It was as if Shi Nian had eyes on the back of his head; he dodged almost at the same time as Chang Yuan’s warning was given and even pulled Yun Nan—who happened to be holding hands with Shi Xiu—with him. Shi Xiu also swiftly reacted; she quickly let go of Yun Nan’s hand and protected her grandfather.

Yun Liu couldn’t slow down in time, and she shot past them to collide with a young man who was dragging his luggage, and both of them screamed as they fell to the ground. This fall was different from her previous one. This was a heavy fall, and she even pushed a man to the ground.

Yun Liu was in a sorry state as she got to her feet. She didn’t even spare a

glance at the man rolling on the ground after having sustained a hit to a vital organ. She rushed to Shi Nian and yelled, “Shi Nian! Shi Nian! Please, I beg you! Don’t go!”

Yun Nan subconsciously shielded Shi Nian behind her and stared at Yun Liu coldly. For a moment, she couldn’t figure out what Yun Liu was up to.

Yun Liu burst into tears, knelt before Yun Nan, and cried, “Sister dear, I beg you, leave us be! No matter what you want, I’ll agree to it! I promise you that I’ll leave the Yun family. I promise you that I’ll never see my parents again. I will no longer be the daughter of the Yun family. I only beg you to let us be!”

Her speech was vague, not to mention illogical, but it set off Yun Nan’s alarms. Due to her professional sensitivity, Yun Nan knew that she was currently facing danger on all sides; if she wasn’t careful, Yun Liu could ruin her public image. Hence, Yun Nan tilted her head towards Shi Nian and pointed at the young man still rolling on the ground.. “Hubby, he needs urgent help! What are you still standing around for? A plea?”
