Chen Tong felt quite ashamed and embarrassed.
Especially in the car, Xiao Qilin had already exposed her years of scheming.
Although Xiao Qilin's attitude towards her has not changed much, this also indicates that things will not get any better in the future.
At least at this stage, she must find a way to keep what she has now.
This time, Chen Tong did not explain much for Xiao Yun. He just said that he was sleepy and wanted to go back and rest.
She locked the door and took out many documents from the depths of the closet, trying to find a glimmer of hope.
Xiao Yun stayed in her room, covered with the quilt, and did not stick her head out until late at night. Her red and swollen eyes looked hideous and terrifying in the dark night.
She went up to the third floor with ease and slipped into Xiao Siyun's cloakroom.
The clothes in the cloakroom were luxurious and beautiful, each one was what she had always dreamed of. As she reached out to touch them, she felt more jealous and resentful.
She suddenly grabbed a handful of necklaces in her hand.
Snap!
The lights suddenly came on.
Xiao Yun turned back in panic, and the hand holding the necklace trembled slightly.
It’s Chen Tong!
She suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, and a drop of sweat dripped down her forehead.
Chen Tong looked at her with jewelry in her hands, rushed over anxiously and pulled her away.
"What are you doing? If they find out..."
"So what if they find out? Will they treat me better or worse if they know it?"
The mother and daughter were arguing in a low voice in someone else's cloakroom, unaware that Xiao Siyun in the master bedroom just across the wall slowly opened her eyes.
Xiao Siyun is still in the recovery stage. Normally, he doesn't seem to have any major problems, but he always sleeps lightly at night.
Just then, after she woke up slowly, she vaguely heard some movement next door, as if someone was talking in a low voice.
Looking more closely, I found that there was light coming from the crack of the door on the other side of the cloakroom.
She approached cautiously to listen to what was going on. There was a crackling sound, followed by a loud sound of footsteps coming down the stairs.
Xiao Siyun immediately pushed the door open to check and confirmed that the person had left, but there were several necklaces piled haphazardly on a table.
She immediately went through the cloakroom and went downstairs. As soon as she reached the stairs, she heard the sound of a door closing downstairs, and the light from Chen Tong's room was quickly blocked.
The goal has been determined.
Xiao Siyun tiptoed to Chen Tong's door and heard a big quarrel breaking out inside.
First, Chen Tong scolded Xiao Yun.
"Why did you go to her cloakroom in the middle of the night and take her things? If we were caught, would the four of them let us go?"
Then Xiao Yun argued excitedly.
"She has so many clothes and jewelry in her room. If one or two pieces are missing, believe it or not, she won't even notice!"
Xiao Siyun, who was eavesdropping outside, nodded silently.
Indeed, she just felt that the jewelry was a bit suspicious because it was placed too messily.
But Chen Tong still couldn't accept it, and pulled the necklace that she was still holding tightly in her hand.
"It's not a question of whether she found out or not. It's that you don't have to take her things. If you want something, can't you just tell your mother?"
"Let me tell you, will you buy it for me?" Xiao Yun turned her face away coldly.
"Why didn't I buy it for you? Wasn't I the one who bought you that bag last time?"
"I begged you to buy it for me, but Xiao Siyun didn't even have to ask for it, Xiao Yingzhi would have it delivered on time."
"H-That's because she..."
"Because she is the real eldest daughter of the Xiao family, I am just a burden you brought here!"
"Shut up!"
"You don't let me take her things, but you always ask me to imitate her. Don't you want me to become like her?"
Xiao Yun became more and more excited as she spoke.
"Dad doesn't care about me, Xiao Yingzhi ignores me, Xiao Zeyun hates me, and even Xiao Siyun can bully me casually after he comes back."
"Xiao Siyun is their relative. They treat her well. I understand."
"But when Xiao Siyun was away, I was the one who stayed with them for so many years."
"Isn't what I've given far less than their little bit of flesh and blood?"
"I really hate them. I won't let it go like this. I will retaliate!"
"This is not my fault, it's all their own fault..."
Xiao Yun was crying and saying harsh words, when suddenly the door lock clicked and the door opened!
The last word "take" was still stuck in her throat, and she looked up at Xiao Siyun at the door in shock.
How stupid of them to not lock the door!
Xiao Siyun folded his hands and leaned against the door with a creepy smile on his face. He looked with interest at the mother and daughter who had just been crying and hugging each other but had now stopped crying.
She kindly reminded:
"You guys were crying a little loudly. It didn't sound like you had any intention of hiding it from anyone."
"You guys just happened to be passing by my cloakroom, and I was bored, so I followed you and opened the door to listen."
"What? You don't want to continue crying or talking?"
Xiao Siyun was standing at the door, facing the light on one side and facing the darkness on the other, smiling at people sinisterly.
Xiao Yun suppressed her tears out of fear. After a while, she suddenly started to hiccup and felt uncomfortable with a cramp in her chest.
Chen Tong also felt guilty about Xiao Siyun's actions.
What does this person want to do?
Not only did she eavesdrop, but she also opened the door and told them that she was eavesdropping!
But Chen Tong remained calm. Thinking back on what had happened in the past few days, she couldn't confront Xiao Siyun head-on.
Since the current situation was not a good time to break off relations, she had to test the waters first and try to find room for maneuver.
