Chapter 629: Repayment (2)
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
At the back, Aunt Li was still cursing non-stop. “I wonder what sin my Li family has committed to give birth to two useless people. They’re both worrisome. As an elder sister, they don’t know to give in to their younger brother.”
“I don’t know what’s the use of raising you heartless, wretched girls. It’s just a waste of food!”
Aunt Li seemed to be scolding Li Zhaodi and Li Yunrong, but in fact, even Gu Yanfei was scolded.
Gu Yanfei didn’t even twitch the corners of her eyes. When she was young in the Li family, she had heard similar reprimands and worse insults countless times.
It was time for Li Yunrong to suffer.
“…” Li Yunrong clenched the hand hidden in her sleeve again and slowly walked into the room.
She tried her best to restrain her emotions and hide the deepest coldness in her eyes. “Sit anywhere.”
Gu Yanfei slowly looked around and sat down at the coffee table by the window.
Xia Lian quickly served both of them hot tea, the aroma of Longjing tea wafting gently through the air, mingling with the faint scent of incense in the room.
The room was elegantly decorated, forming a sharp contrast to the rough and messy courtyard outside, as if it was a completely different world.
Li Yunrong took a sip of tea first. Her eyelashes fluttered twice like b.u.t.terfly wings, and she took the initiative to show goodwill. “There were some misunderstandings between us, but we never had the chance to sit together and talk properly.”
”1 want to tell you that I’ve never wanted to s.n.a.t.c.h anything from you. Ever since you returned, I’ve retreated again and again…”
“Now that I’ve returned everything to you, you should be satisfied, right?”
She looked very calm and tried her best to make her tone light, but there was a trace of forbearing resentment in her voice.
Gu Yanfei didn’t answer immediately. Instead, she held the teacup and took two sips of the top-notch Longjing tea before slowly putting it down and correcting her. “You’re wrong. What’s mine is mine in the first place, not something you ‘returned’ to me.”
“If we really talk about it, what your mother took and gave you was stolen. Stolen goods remain stolen, never truly yours. It’s just a matter of returning what was taken, and we haven’t even taken account of the interest.”
Gu Yanfei’s voice was cold and without any warmth. She looked aggressive, completely different from her usual lazy and comfortable appearance.
It was like an eagle revealing its sharp claws, its aura oppressive.
“…” Thinking of Mother Su, Li Yunrong felt as if her heart had been ruthlessly stabbed by a needle. She felt a sharp pain, but she maintained an expressionless face.
This was Gu Yanfei’s true nature. Usually, she pretended to be a harmless house cat, but she was ultimately a ferocious wolf.
Gu Yanfei raised her hand and pushed open the window. With a squeak, the wind outside the window blew in, accompanied by Li Hao’s hoa.r.s.e cry. “Grandma, tell Erya that I want this carriage!”
“Grandma, hasn’t Erya always listened to you?”
“Tell her, tell her quickly!”
Li Hao sat on the stone ground in the courtyard. One moment, his feet were kicking around, the next moment, he lay down, and the next moment, he patted the ground with his hand. He was just short of rolling on the ground.
Aunt Li had no way to deal with her precious grandson at all. She could only coax him gently, “Brother Hao, this carriage outside isn’t good.”
“If you want a carriage, I’ll buy you a new one someday…”
“With your second sister around, a carriage is nothing.”
In Aunt Li’s heart, everything about Li Yunrong naturally belonged to her grandson. Li Yunrong should take care of her brother. These words were said confidently.
“Look!” Gu Yanfei pointed at the pair outside and chuckled softly. She said in a sharp tone, “This is yours.”
“But…”
She slowly pointed at half a circle of houses. “Everything here doesn’t belong to you. The Li family isn’t so rich to be able to afford such a good house.”
“The Li family is just a family of slaves.”
“I heard that you were the one who freed them from slavery, right?”
Regarding this, Li Yunrong was speechless.
Last year, after the truth about the real and fake daughter was exposed, she begged the old lady for her favor and let go of the Li family’s slave status. The old lady took pity on her, so she agreed.
“Look, you owe me this too.” Gu Yanfei sneered and said, “Or, you can return the indenture of the Li family to me?”
“…” How could Li Yunrong agree? Her hand that was holding the teacup trembled, and hot tea overflowed from the cup, rolling between her fingers and the back of her hand. She seemed to not feel anything, only fixing her dark and unclear gaze on Gu Yanfei..
