General Yun's face darkened upon hearing Su Haoran's na. From the mont he'd seen the man, he knew that Su Haoran didn't really care for his precious daughter. Yun Guanyu hated the man at first sight. After his long years of service in the military, it wasn't hard for him to see the real reason Su Haoran was chasing after his daughter.
"Su Xiaofei, tell us… Did Su Haoran truly betray my sister?" This ti, it was Yun Shao who asked Su Xiaofei.
Su Xiaofei sighed but remained calm despite being under the spotlight in front of these elder n from her mother's family.
"General Yun, respectable Uncles, this is the reason I agreed to et you today." She replied with a straight face. "Please help my mother to regain her freedom from Su Haoran."
"Tell us what happened first. Start from the very beginning and don't you dare lie to us." Yun Zhaonan, the second son, looked at Su Xiaofei as if she was his subject. He was seated with his legs crossed, his spectacles gave him a more dignified look, like a scholar with vast knowledge.
"Zhaonan, Xiao Shao, don't intimidate Miss Su. Miss Su, why don't you take a seat first and have so refreshnt?" The oldest of the Yun siblings smiled and gestured for Su Xiaofei to take a seat in front of them.
Su Xiaofei nodded and placed the paper bag she was holding on top of the glass coffee table that separated her from the three n.
"My Mama woke up early today to make these for you, Uncles." She said before taking a sip of the orange juice that was prepared for her.
Yun Shao couldn't contain his excitent and imdiately snatched the paper bag to see what was inside. He fished out the first plastic box that had his na scribbled on a piece sticker. The mont he opened it, the scent of freshly baked cookies filled the room.
"My Qing Jie hasn't forgotten my favorite." Yun Shao chuckled as he took a bite of the cookie he was holding.
Yun Zhaonan coughed behind his hand and cleared his throat, forcing everyone to return to the issue at hand. He looked at Su Xiaofei who remained calm even in the presence of four adult n who ca from a military family.
"Miss Su can answer us now." He told her.
"It's true. Su Haoran fathered a daughter with his previous lover before marrying my Mama." She started. "The mother and daughter pair ca after the recent New Year's celebration and begged my Mama to allow his other daughter to live with us. Miss Ye Xing claid that she has cancer and was worried that there's no one who would look after her daughter once she died."
BANG!
A loud sound resounded within the room, causing Su Xiaofei to wince. Yun Guanyu just smacked the mahogany desk in front of him with his huge hand.
"Su Haoran! You dare to bully my daughter?!" The old general was seething in rage as he thought how the other woman dared to humiliate his Qing'er in her own ho. It didn't matter to him how old his daughter was, because Yun Qingrong was still as precious as she was since her birth.
"This Ye Xing… you an she wanted my sister to take care of her already adult daughter?" Yun Zhaonan asked.
Su Xiaofei nodded. Thankfully, her mother had inford her of the Yun brothers' personalities, or she wouldn't be able to anticipate their reaction. It was important for her to know how to utilize and take advantage of their weaknesses, in order to earn their favor.
She glanced at Yun Zhaonan. According to her mother, this second uncle was the smartest among her mother's brothers. She needed to make sure not to slip up in front of him.
"I was there when it happened, but I didn't allow them to stay in our house for too long. They already ruined my Mama's day by showing up unannounced."
Yun Zhaonan frowned and hardened his jaws at that. The atmosphere within the room beca heavy and frosty.
Judging by their reactions, it was obvious that these n weren't pleased with what they heard from her.
"And what did Su Haoran say?"
"What else but to beg my mother not to divorce him. He said that he only has Ye Mingyu as his daughter and he owed the girl a lot and wanted to take her into the family, but Mama refused. She chased him and his relatives away from our ho and asked her lawyers to send him the divorce papers." Su Xiaofei answered.
Yun Guanyu looked at Su Xiaofei with a complicated expression.
"You said you are here to ask us to help your mother. What else can we do if she's already divorcing Su Haoran?" He questioned the young woman.
"Exactly." Su Xiaofei nodded. "It's still the reason I ca here to seek the Yun family's help"
When the four n remained silent, waiting for her explanation, she continued.
"Indeed, my Mama has chased him away from our ho, but recently, I found out that he and Miss Ye, along with their daughter had been settling illegally in one of the villas my mother owned for over a decade now. Mama's lawyers have already delivered the divorce papers, but Su Haoran refused to sign them."
Her explanation only angered the old man further.
"Things are like this, General Yun. I think you would understand my mother better than , and you would know that she would hate to play dirty just to get what she needed." Su Xiaofei said.
Yun Zhaonan narrowed his eyes at that.
"And you are willing to do the dirty job for her?" He questioned her, thinking how odd this young woman in front of them was.
"Although my Mama isn't the one who gave birth to , she's the one who raised .. I can't just watch as Su Haoran continues to disrespect my mother."
