Chapter 183. The Secret That Was Slipped Up



They didn't say who was sweating profusely, but even though the temperature had dropped, the sweat on Lord Tianyun's head never dried.

"Lord Yun, are you hot?"

Lord Yun wiped his forehead. "N-nothing."

Nothing's wrong my foot!

No one knows a son better than his father. He knew what mischief his good-for-nothing son had gotten up to the moment he bent over!

How could Yun Zihan dare to tell the truth? She silently glared at Yun Zihan and pushed her aside.

I spoke too quickly just now, I'll be more careful next time!

Yun Jinglan: "Aren't you going to ask?"

Yun Zihan gave a forced smile: "Madam, I strictly adhere to etiquette and moral principles. How could I possibly do anything that is morally reprehensible?"

[A beast in human form!] Chiu Chiu Rela comments, [This "beast-hearted guy" needs a thorough investigation!]

Their conversation was interrupted, and they found themselves in an awkward situation again. The Su family members' habit of feeling embarrassed for others had resurfaced.

Yun Jinglan nudged Qiuqiu, "Wake up."

Wake up and get in control!

Chiu Chiu sensed her mother's call and slowly woke up, putting on a convincing act by pretending to be weak.

She rubbed her eyes until they were red, glanced at Aunt Zhao in horror, and then trembled all over.

Those present were startled; could it be that he had really been frightened into something abnormal?

Lord Yun's hands, hanging by his sides, tightened continuously, his nails digging into his palms without him even noticing. Hadn't this woman not touched him?

Qiuqiu's acting was so realistic that even Aunt Zhao herself wondered if she had unknowingly mastered the "hitting a cow from across a mountain" technique.

Chiu Chiu, weak and afraid, nestled in her mother's arms, thought that she had already completed the necessary actions and that no one would suspect anything.

She hooked her finger around Madam Yun's arm, "Hehe."

When she smiled, her round face revealed a small dimple on her left cheek, which melted Madam Yun's heart.

How can there be such an adorable baby!

Your version of Chiu Chiu, though physically weak, is now online!

Chiu Chiu hooked her finger around Madam Yun's not to greet her, but for another purpose!

[Pinky promise, we're best friends. If your best friend invites you out for dinner, you have to go!]

Yun Jinglan stared absently at Madam Yun's hand, then called for someone else to eat.

When did their little chick become so hospitable!

[Standard blind date process!]

really……

“Madam Yun, what I mean is that I hope you can give this matter a serious consideration.”

Gao Xun's attire was simply old-fashioned; he was actually quite young. It was just that his name didn't sound very good in the capital. Putting all that aside, Madam Yun genuinely thought they were a well-matched couple.

Madam Yun, as if grasping at a straw, immediately nodded and said, "I will think about it carefully." Yun Jinglan stared blankly at Madam Yun's hand. Was she calling someone else to eat?

When did their little chick become so hospitable!

[Authentic matchmaking process!]

really……

“Madam Yun, what I mean is that I hope you can give this matter a serious consideration.”

Gao Xun's attire was simply old-fashioned; he was actually quite young. It was just that his name didn't sound very good in the capital. Putting all that aside, Madam Yun genuinely thought they were a well-matched couple.

As if grasping at a straw, Madam Yun immediately turned around and said, "I will think about it carefully."

"Can't!"

Yun Zihan yelled loudly again, startling him. She glared at him, annoyed: "How many dishes did you eat to get this drunk?!"

Yun Zihan stared at Madam Yun, no longer caring about anything else, and coldly questioned her: "Mother, do you still remember what you promised me before?"

Now that Marquis Wenyang and General Yun are backing her up, she naturally won't be threatened by Yun Zihan anymore. She directly brushed his hand away, full of sarcasm: "Did I promise you anything?"

"you!"

Yun Zihan was so angry that her face turned red, but it was all in vain.

Instead of wasting your time talking about "me and others," you should be thinking about how to pay off your messy debts!

Mentioning this, Yun Zihan's face instantly darkened. He turned to his father and threatened, "Dad, what we owe Master Zhao is no small amount. If he can't get the money or the man, the consequences will be unimaginable!"

This threat is quite useful to Lord Yun.

He moved a little and then moved back.

This fickle person!

Couldn't he have been more resolute for a little while?

[Mom, confront him!]

As Qiuqiu finished speaking, Su Junyao saw Yun Jinglan, who was eagerly anticipating her promotion, and realized things weren't looking good. He tried to stop her but couldn't...

Yun Jinglan: "Master Gao is a talented young man, holding a high position and wielding great power!"

Yun Zihan: "Although Third Master Zhao is old, he can take a bath and still runs home. Most importantly, he likes to give money to others."

"Father, money! Money!"

They argued back and forth, neither willing to give in. At this point, no one was considering the issues of status or seniority anymore; it was as if Yun Xiangling was determined to choose one of them.

Lord Yun moved from side to side until he was almost a blur.

Yun Jinglan and Yun Zihan both stuck to their own opinions, and their argument nearly escalated into a physical fight. It was Su Junyao who finally separated them.

General Yun pulled Yun Jinglan aside and gently patted her back: "Why are you arguing with him? You said I have a short temper, but I don't think you're any better."

"Yunsheng."

"Uncle, I'm here."

"Hmm, think carefully about what my little chick said. Gao Xun is much stronger than Zhao San!"

That's true, and Lord Yun understands this principle.

but……

The question of what to do if that scoundrel Zhao San comes looking for trouble has not yet been resolved.

Lord Yun said he needed to think about it carefully.

Inside the room, a group of people were making a ruckus. Yun Xiangling sat on the edge of the bed, seemingly oblivious to it all. It was as if she felt only a slight numbness in her heart when they discussed her marriage, and then nothing more.

Even when the conversation ended, she remained silent.

Chiu Chiu was held in her arms, and she felt a cool sensation on her forehead. [Were you crying?]

Why am I crying? I'm not sure, I'll think about it some more.

[Sister Xiangling, are you unhappy?]

Jiujiu cupped Yun Xiangling's face in her hands, shaking her forehead against hers, [shaking her head to shake away her worries.]

Noticed, Yun Xiangling sniffed, looking utterly helpless: "Do I really have to get married?"

Everyone was talking about her, but no one was asking her if she agreed.

Chiu Chiu shook her head. "No, you can marry whoever you want, as long as you like them."

At worst, the matchmaking will fail. It's not shameful for the baby to fail, but Sister Xiangling must find her own happiness!

Perhaps it was the intense gaze of Qiuqiu that gave Yun Xiangling the greatest encouragement.

She mustered her courage: "I don't want to get married!"

Upon hearing this, Yun Jinglan immediately shut up. She valued participation but didn't want to meddle in other people's family affairs.

Lord Yun and Yun Zihan, however, could no longer sit still.

If she doesn't marry him, won't she lose both money and power?

Lord Yun: "You think you can just refuse to marry because you don't want to?"

Yun Zihan felt that his father had finally stood up for him today, and he immediately straightened up.

With his hands on his hips, he didn't act like a spoiled young master at all; instead, he resembled a shrew. He declared righteously, "If you don't marry me, how am I supposed to repay the favor I owe Zhao Sanhe!"

"If that matter gets out, our Yun family line will end!"

"If you don't marry me, Zhao San will kill me!"

Chirp: [Then go die!]
