n“Lin Mumu!”

n“Will you obediently hand them over by yourself or do we still have to make you do it?”

nLin Mumu quickly raised her hands and surrendered, “I’ve left you half of it. You can come and get it later.”

n“That’s still good enough, not bad.”

n“Don’t be polite with her, after all, by the time we’ll be finished eating the fruits she set aside for us, her man will have already brought her another basketful.”

nTheir voices weren’t too loud, but if anyone intentionally eavesdropped on their conversation, they could be heard easily. Chen Fangya turned her head and provokingly met her gaze with Yun Ruoshan’s unreconciled expression.

nToday, Wang Chong publicly said Yun Ruoshan’s name. Before the truth could be clearly disclosed to everyone, the man was suddenly killed by a poisonous insect.

nEven fools could guess the matter was related to Yun Ruoshan.

nChen Fangya was especially sure of her guess since An Xiaoqin personally told her and Liu Yuanyuan that Yun Ruoshan was actually Yun ting’s younger sister, but not the blood related type! Moreover, Yun Ruoshan liking Yun Ting was an open secret in Beijing’s elites’ circle.

nThe most important thing was Yun Jia was also a famous general’s home in Beijing, so the family’s private affairs couldn’t be hidden easily. Yun Ruoshan was in fact the little princess of Yun Jia. Although she was adopted, she was nonetheless greatly favored by Yun Ting’s father, Yun Jianguo, and the latter even doted on her more than his own blood-related daughter.

nYun Zheng, Yun Ting’s big brother, also had some conflicts with his father because of Yun Ruoshan, and their relationship gradually deteriorated. When he turned 18 years old, he immediately applied to join the military troops stationed t the border to learn through experience, and since then, he has rarely returned to Beijing.

nAn Xiaoqin persuaded Chen Fangya with great difficulty that she couldn’t simply expose Yun Ruoshan without evidence, so she could only use this method to provoke her.

nEn, the results were pretty good. Just hearing about how good Yun Ting was to Lin Mumu instantly made Yun Ruoshan’s complexion ashen.

nChen Fangya also deliberately dragged Lin Mumu into her little taunts: “Lin Mumu, why are your lips so swollen? Were you bitten by something? “

n“What nonsense are you spouting again?” Lin Mumu’s face was a helpless 囧.

n“I saw it all today. She was bitten by a person.”

n“I also saw it.” Even the always reserved and honest Liu Yuanyuan teasingly raised her hand to testify.

nOriginally, the four of them were cheerfully talking in a quiet corner with no other people around, so Yun Ruoshan got curious and wanted to eavesdrop on their conversation. However, the closer she got, the angrier she became.

nSecond brother doted on her so much, and also kissed her!

nThis was likely to be true. Yun Ruoshan still remembers how Yun Ting tightly held Lin Mumu the other day, almost as if he wished to knead her into his own body. Again today, Yun Ruoshan secretly watched from the shadows and witnessed Yun Ting leaving while carrying Lin Mumu in his arms.

nIf it was her, Yun Ting probably wouldn’t care at all. When she was a child, she would often trip and fall down deliberately to let Yun Ting help her up. However, the only word she ever got was “scram”. When she got older, Yun Ting didn’t say that anymore, because he simply didn’t bother telling her a single word.

nWhy was he so good to Lin Mumu?

nLin Mumu also felt Yun Ruoshan’s glare, and suddenly turned around to face her with a strange smile that seemed to hold some meaning: “Yun Ruoshan, you’ve gone to such great lengths to harm others, aren’t you afraid of the ghosts that might come knocking at night?”

n“What do I have to be afraid of?” Yun Ruoshan snorted, “I won’t play along your act of dressing up like a god and playing the devil. Where do you see ghosts existing in this world? The Taoist priests on the streets are just bluffing and swindling people.

nI’m someone who’s been abroad to study at the United States, how could I believe in such things? Only people like you who hold onto this kind of decadent and old-fashioned culture would believe in ghosts and supernatural beings.”

n(TN: Dress up like a god and play the devil means to mystify and deceive

/scam people.)

n“Ghosts do exit, they’re just hidden in every person’s heart, that’s why we say: He who never wrongs others does not fear ghosts knocking at night. Do not be guilty, don’t be afraid of the ghost knocking at the door. The idea is that, when you do something wrong, you will definitely face the consequences.” Lin Mumu calmly replied to her without a single trace of anger or impatience.

n(TN: When you have a clear conscience, you can be at ease and fearless of consequences, contrary to someone who’s guilty.)

n“You have a mental disorder!” Yun Ruoshan’s voice suddenly became nervously louder. She inexplicably felt like Lin Mumu’s eyes were somewhat gloomy and eerie, and she didn’t feel comfortable being stared at with that kind of gaze.

nThe sentence Lin Mumu said was merely a casual idiom people used daily to scare them from doing evil, but to Yun Ruoshan, those simple words became a heavy curse that continuously echoed in her mind: “When you do something wrong, be careful of ghosts knocking at your door.”
