Imperial Commander: His Pretty Wife Is Spoiled Rotten (Book 1)

616-620

"What is it?" Yun Xi smiled aloofly. From Yun Chuhan's tone, it was obvious she was baiting her.

Knowing what she did, Yun Xi could respond calmly and with ease.

"Do you know who lives at the top of Tianyu Mountain?"

Yun Chuhan couldn't believe that Yun Xi was hooking up with the young marshal. Just recently, Yun Chuhan had followed Yun Xi up the mountain, only to see her remaining at the sentry post and just talking and laughing with the guards stationed there.

What sort of future could she have with a security guard who was posted at the gate of a mountain?

Yun Chuhan had never expected Yun Xi to be so short-sighted!

But what was the alternative? There was no way that Yun Xi could be worthy of a man of honour like the young marshal.

"Everyone in Jingdu knows who lives in Tianyu Mountain. But not everyone in Jindu can actually go up to the mountain."

"So my eldest sister, you should know your place. Don't bring trouble to the family. The young marshal doesn't even fancy the president's daughter, so what makes you think he will fancy you? Don't bother wasting your time. It's useless to just stay at the gate of the mountain, waiting for the marshal. Even if he were to go down the mountain, he'll go through a different lane. So don't even think about trying to set up any fateful encounters. Your chances of meeting him are next to impossible."

Yun Xi immediately understood what Yun Chuhan meant, and her eyes darkened. "It sounds like you've been following me around. It must have been really hard for you to get up so early and trail after me on such cold days! You seem pretty experienced in spying on people... You've probably laid in ambush for the handsome young marshal, right?"

Upon having her deepest, most shameful secret exposed, Yun Chuhan's eyes suddenly became dark, and she snorted coldly, "You're no better than me!"

Yun Xi didn't really want to reveal that she had just ended a video call with Mu Feichi. With Yun Chuhan's gloating mannerism, did she really think that she was as delusional as her?

"You don't have to test me, Yun Chuhan. I just haven't had this leisure time to deal with you recently."

"Of course, my eldest sister. You've been busy disciplining Liang Xinyi and my mother recently. It must be taking up so much of your time."

"Exactly! I don't have time to deal with you right now! You'd better give me peace of mind. The next time you want to scheme against me, make sure you're getting paid well to do it. When I strike back, whatever money you get will be barely enough to clean up the mess."

"What are you talking about? When did I scheme against you!"

She knew about her sister's recent tricks. Yun Ziling had been mercilessly disciplined and since then, became much more behaved. Her mother was also kicked out of the villa complex by her.

When they fought against each other, she didn't want to confront her head-on.

"You know what you've done."

Not wanting to relive the past, Yun Xi spun around and left Yun Chuhan in place with a flustered face and her imagination running wild.

The next day, Yun Xi arrived at school early in the morning. She heard Yang Lu talking about how the school was handling Zhou Chenzhe's case. They had disqualified him for the final exam.

He was not allowed to sit for the final exam and would not be eligible for the ranking, let alone get a reward for ranking in the top three.

A hundred yuan was much to Yun Xi but the same couldn't be said for Zhou Chengze, who was on a scholarship. And with the New Year coming up, he needed the money badly.
