Sun Chan didn’t know about Han Dong leaving. He had always been running around, very busy. It wasn’t anything unusual.
Gu Junming sowhat understood, but he didn’t want to get involved. Being a soldier, he couldn’t do overly excessive things, especially since that woman was Sun Chan’s older sister. However, he wouldn’t interfere in others’ matters, so he pretended not to know.
At this mont, Yang Dongfeng appeared in front of Sun Chan. Sun Chan felt very calm, without any emotions.
Yang Dongfeng trembled as he spoke, "Daughter, you’ve suffered. Rest assured, that mother and daughter pair have received the heaviest punishnt! They’ll definitely not fare well. Can you finally breathe a sigh of relief?"
Sun Chan glanced at Yang Dongfeng, "I can’t breathe a sigh of relief. I have nightmares every day. I dream of you turning away and leaving behind."
Yang Dongfeng scratched his head, "I never thought it would be so serious. I just thought they’d beat you up and that would be it, but who would’ve thought they’d be so malicious, and that Yun’er would also be deceived..."
Even at this mont, he’s still trying to whitewash Yang Yun!
Sun Chan could no longer contain her emotions, "What do you an by saying it would be okay if they just hit once? I only stopped Mom from arranging a job for Sun Lijuan. Was that wrong? How on earth did I offend Yang Yun to make you think it was normal for to be tied up and beaten by her?"
"I was just..."
"Back then, Yang Yun wouldn’t let you recognize , didn’t want to co ho and be with you, and I couldn’t even have a family dinner. Did I ever say anything? She ruined all the clothes Mom gave to , did I bla her? I kept enduring, kept avoiding, but she kept provoking ! In order to stop from taking exams, she tried all ans to sabotage, even slashing the car tires, and got caught in the act. Did you ever hit her? Your favoritism is what makes Yang Yun worse than a beast!"
Yang Dongfeng’s eyes reddened with urgency, "I told you, Yang Yun wasn’t a participant, she was just deceived..."
"I’m not deaf. Are my ears not reliable enough? Yan Kai never had any dealings with Yang Yun, why would he fra her? Where did the huge sums of money on Sun Lijuan and her mother co from? Who paid for the train and cab fares? These two aren’t outing Yang Yun because they want her to continue bullying and torturing , and you just choose to turn a blind eye, letting her perpetuate!"
Yang Dongfeng couldn’t have imagined that Sun Chan had already figured everything out, the fact he always refused to admit was laid bare before him.
"She’s your sister, only in her twenties. Her life is just starting. You... just give her a chance. I promise to cherish you from now on..." He approached his younger daughter, earnestly pleading, trying to hold her hand.
Sun Chan avoided him, not wanting to accept such a superficial gift of familial affection!
"Don’t worry. These two aren’t acknowledging Yang Yun’s involvent in the kidnapping, what ans do I have to apprehend her? People just say I’m oppressing my sister. From here on, you and your daughter have nothing to do with ."
"Sun Chan!"
"I’m very busy; please leave." With that, Sun Chan lowered her head and continued working on her clothing designs.
Yang Dongfeng gritted his teeth, "I want to bring Yang Yun back to discipline her properly, okay?"
"That’s none of my business."
"How can it not concern you... Your mom has been gone for so long. Do you really want to see this family fall apart completely? After all, you didn’t suffer any serious consequences!" Yang Dongfeng sounded indescribably vexed.
How could she not show a little leniency!
Sun Chan laughed, "So you an to say, I should persuade Mom to co back so you three can continue your harmonious life, and the fact she tortured and tried to ruin just gets left in the past?"
Yang Dongfeng hesitated for a mont, nodded, "Rest assured, there will always be a place for you in this family. I’ll give you a room. You’re my daughter, I’ll treat you equally." He considered clearing out the storage room next to Yang Yun for her to stay. Anyway, she’d be married off sooner or later, she wouldn’t stay long, Yang Yun would just have to tolerate a few days.
"I don’t care for it! If I go back, I fear Yang Yun will poison . And you’d only help cover it up, I don’t dare to take that risk."
"Sun Chan! You’re simply..."
Just then, soone outside kicked the door open and stord in, catching Yang Dongfeng off guard with a slap that left him seeing stars and bleeding from the lip. It was Yang Xiong, followed closely by his wife who wore a frosty expression.
The two were originally there to have a al with Sun Chan, but who knew they’d overhear such a conversation at the door!
The pain made Yang Dongfeng gasp, "Dad! Calm down, Dad!"
"Yang Dongfeng! You should imdiately apply for discharge! You are utterly unfit to be a soldier, with no principles or sense of justice, you’re simply a disgrace to the army!"
Yang Dongfeng, shocked, looked at his father, "Dad, what are you saying, if I apply for discharge now, I’ll have nothing left!" His career in the army didn’t progress well, with a low rank. If he retired, what position could he get? At his age, he wouldn’t get a good assignnt, just be stuck in a corner waiting for retirent, his life would be over!
He had still hoped to rely on his father to advance, now he’s being told to retire?
Yang Xiong sneered, "You think too beautifully! You stood by and did nothing to save Sun Chan, shielded criminals, and shalessly asked Sun Chan to persuade her mother to return ho? Listen here, if I don’t see your retirent application within three days, I’ll report what I’ve heard to the higher-ups, and you can wait to face the court! Thank goodness you’re not my only son, or you’d have driven to my grave!"
Having said that, Yang Xiong turned and left with a flick of his sleeves.
Yang Dongfeng staggered, his father took such ruthless action! If he retires now, what does he have left!
Nothing left, utterly penniless!
Zhao Jieyun walked over, first examining Sun Chan from top to bottom to ensure she was alright, then spoke to Yang Dongfeng, "I’ve already filed the divorce papers, you should hurry with it too. If you don’t want the military leaders to know the real reason I’m divorcing you, then sign quickly. Otherwise, it won’t just be a matter of divorce. You’ll face a military court for what you’ve done. I don’t mind sending you there."
Zhao Jieyun’s tone was icy, like the freezing cold of winter. Yang Dongfeng shivered all over; in one day, he lost his wife, daughter, father, and his job, everything was gone!
"Zhao Jieyun, how did we end up here? I haven’t done anything to betray you; I’ve always been good to you. Why won’t you give a chance to change?"
"I’ve given you too many chances, Yang Dongfeng." Zhao Jieyun wiped her tears, "How could you treat Sun Chan like this, worse than an animal! I won’t forgive you; your intentions are too cruel. Even a tiger won’t eat its cubs, yet you stood by and watched as Sun Chan was taken by them. If Yan Kai hadn’t received the news in advance, Sun Chan’s life would’ve been ruined forever! Don’t you feel ashad?"
Yang Dongfeng glanced at Sun Chan; she looked out the window indifferently, not sparing him a single glance.
