Zhang Wan laughed and scolded, "You wild monkey, you finally came back! Don't you know how worried your sister was about you?"
Zhao Zhi walked towards Zhao Yun with a smile, took her hand affectionately, and said, "Little sister is so playful, she made her older sister worry."
Zhao Yun looked at her tenderly, trying hard to pull her hand back, but couldn't.
"It's alright. My sister is, after all, the future princess. She should rein in this playful nature of hers in the future, lest it get out and ruin the reputation of our Zhao family."
Zhang Wan stood up and echoed Zhao Yun's words, "Your sister is right. From now on, you should stay at home obediently and stop thinking about running around. Alright, now that the Second Miss is back, let's all go our separate ways!"
Liu Yun rubbed her sore and numb legs and struggled to stand up, suppressing the coldness in her eyes.
"Aunt Liu," Zhao Zhi suddenly called out to her.
Liu Yun was startled. Zhao Zhi walked over and whispered in her ear, "That mole on your chest is really beautiful."
Upon hearing this, Liu Yun's legs went weak, and he collapsed to the ground.
Zhao Rou saw this and angrily stepped forward to accuse her, "Second sister, Mother has already punished Auntie, why are you still being so aggressive and refusing to let her off the hook?!"
Zhao Zhi snorted coldly, flicked her sleeves, and left.
Zhao Rou angrily helped her aunt back to her room. Zhao Yun, meanwhile, stared at Zhao Zhi's retreating figure, lost in thought.
She remembered that Zhao Zhi wasn't wearing this outfit on the day she went to Qinglian Temple.
Even the hairpin in her hair had been changed.
Zhao Yun curled her lips into a smile, thinking to herself, "Zhao Zhi, your good days are coming to an end."
As dusk fell, the gatekeeper of the Zhao residence received a package, saying that Miss Zhao had left it on the other party's carriage.
"What's up?"
After finishing his meal, Zhao Yun was taking a walk when, for some reason, he ended up at the screen wall and overheard the gatekeeper talking to someone.
By the time she turned around after going around the screen wall, the man had already left.
"Young Miss, a guard-like man brought a package, saying that Miss Zhao left it on their carriage. But we have three young ladies in our household, and the man didn't specify, so I don't know who to give it to."
"Give it to me." Zhao Yun held out her hand.
She knew in her heart that the package must be for Zhao Zhi.
The doorman looked troubled. "Miss, this package wasn't said to be for you?"
Zhao Yun gave an impatient "hmm" and asked in a low voice, "Are you tired of being a doorman?"
The doorman could easily hear the threat in Zhao Yun's words, and reluctantly handed her the package.
After she had walked away, the gatekeeper spat and cursed, "What are you trying to prove by pretending to be powerful?! Of the three young ladies in this mansion, only the second young lady is beautiful and kind-hearted, and treats us servants like human beings."
