Chapter 1366: A Long Way To Go
Yun Yuanfeng could finally find a glimpse of hope in the suggestion put forward by Yun Xi.
He was certain that his eldest daughter was competent enough to pull off this assignnt. She had been an outsider to the entire event, and she might have good ideas to offer as a third party with a clearer picture.
“I expect that her only condition now would be getting released from the detention center. She was willing to ruin Yun Ziling’s features because Yun Ziling had been unwilling to go with her. If we free her now, who knows what other terror she will bring on us.”
Yun Xi was well aware of what must have been on her father’s mind. She had had the sa thoughts. Freeing Liang Xiuqin would be too dangerous for the situation she was in now. Her main purpose in coming ho had been to take control of the situation personally.
“I know you’re concerned about this, Dad. I know what she did, and I know she cannot be released no matter what.” Yun Xi nodded. Then she turned to Yun Chuhan and asked, “You seem to want Mom to be released...”
Yun Chuhan froze. Being called out by Yun Xi in front of Yun Yuanfeng did not put her in a good position. In a mont of panic, Yun Chuhan blurted out a ssy explanation.
“What do you an, Sister? Why would I want Mom to be released after what she has done?”
Yun Xi blinked innocently, and Yun Yuanfeng responded for her. He frowned and barked at Yun Chuhan, “What do you know? Stupid girl! Your best way of helping is by shutting up.”
Yun Chuhan followed his instructions, but her gaze lingered angrily on Yun Xi. Anger boiled inside Yun Chuhan as she backed away while gritting her teeth.
“Since Sister agrees and we are all on the sa page, I will look for Second Master Jiang for help then.”
Yun Yuanfeng had waited for this reply from Yun Xi and her affirmation made him heave a sigh of relief. He stood up and added a few more reminders for her before he left to pack his luggage for his business trip.
The two watched as their father disappeared up the stairs. Yun Xi turned to Yun Chuhan and marched toward her confidently.
“I heard that you had been wanting to visit Mom in the detention center. Strange, when did you have such a good relationship with Mom?”

“You...” Before Yun Chuhan could say another word, a cold and suppressing aura took over the room around them.
Although she had moved out, Yun Xi still displayed a surprisingly in-depth knowledge of the happenings within the Yun family. It was obvious that soone had been keeping watch and informing her of any updates.
She knew that their auntie had been working with Yun Xi, but it seed as if second aunt was on her side as well.
Even her father seed to have placed great trust in Yun Xi. Now that Yun Ziling was out of the picture, Yun Chuhan could finally see what a threat Yun Xi was in her path to becoming the center of the Yun family.
The eldest daughter of the house was the biggest stumbling rock.
“Don’t think I don’t know what you’re doing, Yun Chuhan. So what if you can see Mom? Who will believe what she says? She’s crazy to everyone else, do you think Dad will believe the words of a crazy person? Besides, you don’t have any evidence. You still have a long way to go to take down.”
With a smirk, Yun Xi lightly patted her younger sister’s shoulders, as the chill in her eyes pierced deep into Yun Chuhan’s bones.
“You will still be nothing with or without Yun Ziling. Dad’s mistress has a son on the way. Do you think he will care about you after that? I still have so uses, so he will close an eye to any of my mistakes. Besides, even with a son, I will still be the eldest daughter of the Yun family. You will continue to be a nobody. You can hate all you want, but you don’t have what it takes to bring down.”
Yun Xi tilted her head and shot Yun Chuhan a look, a look so chilling and so charged with murderous intent that Yun Chuhan could not help but shiver slightly under her gaze.
The air around them beca almost suffocating, and Yun Xi’s glare felt like the equivalent of daggers piercing through Yun Chuhan. She wondered when Yun Xi had learned to hold a gaze like that.
By the ti Yun Chuhan had recovered, Yun Xi had already turned and headed upstairs.
Yun Chuhan gathered herself and collapsed onto the sofa, her breath shaky and fast. She could feel goosebumps on her arms and chills running down her back despite the warmth within her ho.
