Yun Zheng looked at his younger sister, his eyes filled with heartache.

My sister never did anything like that, yet she was labeled as the mastermind.

My sister is so kind and wonderful.

What right do they have to slander my sister like this?

Yun Chuwei noticed Yun Zheng's gaze and smiled, saying, "No, what are you imagining? Why do I feel like you're pitying me?"

“I just think they’ve gone too far. You didn’t do anything, but they’re accusing you of wanting to kill your father! They…” Yun Zheng was about to express his anger when Yun Chuwei interrupted him.

"It might not be a label they've put on me!" Yun Chu said with a smile.

Yun Zheng was taken aback, somewhat confused about what Yun Chuwei meant by those words.

Yun Chu smiled and said, "Have you ever thought that perhaps I really want to kill my father?"

Yun Zheng's eyes widened as he stared at Yun Chuwei, completely stunned.

His lips twitched slightly: "It's...it's not that bad yet, is it? Weiwei, are you being controlled by them too?"

He wondered if Yun Chuwei had also been controlled by that witchcraft, which was why she had such terrible thoughts.

Yun Chu smiled and said slowly, "I wasn't controlled. Now you know what kind of person Yun Xian is. Do you think I would only want to deal with him after I've been controlled?"

Yun Zheng was taken aback, then said, "I do know his character and I have no expectations of him. But it's not quite patricide, is it?"

Yun Chuwei narrowed her eyes slightly and slowly said, "What if we also add the murder of one's wife and mother?"

Yun Zheng was completely stunned: "Murder of wife and mother? What do you mean? Father did such a thing?"

Yun Chuwei looked at Yun Zheng and slowly said, "Didn't you ask me before if there was anything else you didn't know about?"

Yun Zheng nodded; he had indeed asked.

At that time, he felt that Yun Chuwei's hatred for her father was too much.

“At the time, I didn’t tell you because I thought you still had expectations of Yun Xian. I also felt that it was best for you not to get involved! But now that you’re already in it, I think it’s better to tell you some things!” Yun Chuwei said.

Yun Zheng looked at Yun Chuwei, not daring to even breathe loudly.

Because he felt that what his younger sister was about to say might... in his younger sister's words, shatter his Dao heart.

Yun Chuwei paused for a moment, then continued, "Yun Xian and Yun Lianhua poisoned Mother. That's why Mother fainted earlier."

Yun Zheng stared wide-eyed, his face filled with disbelief.

"Poisoning? You're saying they poisoned Mother? They wanted to kill her?" Yun Zheng said.

Yun Chuwei nodded: "You'll know when Mother returns!"

Yun Zheng frowned slightly, puzzled: "We did come back because we knew Mother had fainted. But why did Mother leave? When will she return?"

Yun Chu smiled and said, "My mother, like you, still has expectations for Yun Xian. She doesn't know how to face him right now, so she's hiding away! But she should be back soon!"

Yun Zheng frowned slightly. He knew very well how good his mother was to his father, and he also knew that his mother's heart and eyes were full of his father.

He could imagine how painful it must have been for his mother to find out that his father had betrayed her.

He whispered, "I can understand my mother..."

Yun Chu smiled slightly: "You probably can't understand!"

Yun Zheng was taken aback and looked at Yun Chuwei with a puzzled expression.

Yun Chu smiled slightly: "What I mean is, your understanding might not be quite there yet! Do you know whose son Luo Jifeng is?"

Yun Zheng almost instinctively blurted out, "Didn't you say he was Father's illegitimate son?"

Yun Chuwei gave a mocking smile: "Does Yun Xian really think he can give birth to such an illegitimate child?"

Yun Zheng's eyes widened: "You...you even know who Luo Jifeng's mother is? No, you just mentioned mother, is his mother related to your mother?"

"He's not too stupid!" Yun Chuwei said. "His mother is He An!"

Yun Zheng was completely stunned: "He An? My aunt? How could that be? It's impossible! Could you be mistaken?"

Yun Zheng almost immediately denied it, but when he saw Yun Chuwei's expression was indifferent and she didn't say a word, he knew that Yun Chuwei was very certain.

He swallowed hard and asked, "Do my maternal grandparents know about this?"

Yun Chuwei shook her head: "I don't know if they know, but Mother should know!"

If He Ning were willing to recall some details, she should be able to find some clues to prove whether her parents knew about this matter.

Yun Zheng gently shook his head: "How could Mother bear it?"

The mother hasn't come back for so long, perhaps because she realizes that her parents, husband, sister, and adopted daughter have all betrayed her.

Thinking of this, Yun Zheng said somewhat dejectedly, "Mother might not be back so soon!"

How painful it must have been for her to suffer such a huge change; how could she possibly recover so quickly?

Yun Chuwei agreed with Yun Zheng's judgment.

She said earnestly, "So, we can't wait for her to pull herself together; we need to give her a little push to help her get back on her feet as soon as possible!"

Yun Zheng looked at Yun Chuwei and asked seriously, "What do we need to do?"

He will fully support Yun Chuwei no matter what she wants to do.

They've already fallen out with their father, but they're all juniors, so whatever they do to him will only get them criticized and talked about behind his back.

Only if their mother returns safely can their chances of winning increase.

Yun Chu smiled slightly: "Isn't this the opportunity? If someone continues the rumors of patricide and tries to force you and me to our deaths, do you think Mother will still hide in the temple like a coward?"

Yun Zheng's eyes lit up: "They say women are inherently weak, but become strong when they become mothers! I think there's a chance to force my mother back. How?"

Yun Chu smiled and said, "Then let the rumors run even wilder! Spread the details of your patricide, preferably exaggerating how you killed your father! Also spread the story that Yun Xian endured humiliation and denied killing his father to protect us. And say that we are ungrateful and mock and insult Yun Xian."

Yun Zheng: ...

If this news gets back, the people will probably want to tear them apart alive!

He swallowed hard, feeling uncertain: "Are we really going to throw away our reputations?"

Even if they manage to force their mother to come back, they won't be able to show their faces in public anymore, will they?

Yun Chu smiled slightly: "What are you afraid of? Didn't we want to kill our father because he did something to wrong our mother? Didn't we give up and repent in time?"

Finally, as long as Yun Xian is pinned down for killing his wife and mother, their reputations will be cleared.
