"Iâll take little sister to find big brother."
"No need, no need, I also need to find big brother, Iâll take her along so you donât have to make an extra trip."
Yun Wanyao laughed nervously, no way she would let him spend time with Yun Wanqing.
Who knows, little sister might just spill the beans on her later.
"Itâs not an extra trip, I have matters to discuss with big brother as well."
Yun Wanye sneered, squinting and glaring at her, hmpf, this little brat surely badmouthed him to their little sister behind his back.
"Oh, you also have matters with big brother? Then you go first, Iâll take little sister to get some sun and go later."
Yun Wanyao shrunk back, carrying Yun Wanqing as she retreated, Yun Wanqing with wide eyes and a head full of questions quietly munching on melon seeds.
[Huh, sister is acting weird today, second brother too.]
[Whatâs going on?]
[Second brotherâs gaze towards sister is a bit scary, could he want to hit her?]
[Did sister provoke him?]
"Iâll take little sister to get some sun, you go to big brother first."
Hearing little sister say his gaze was scary, Yun Wanye quickly adjusted his expression, trying to smile kindly, but in Yun Wanyaoâs eyes, it looked like he was about to grind his teeth to dust.
"Little sister doesnât want you to hold her."
"Youâre not little sister, how do you know she doesnât want me to hold her? Give her to me."
"No way, dad, look at him being fierce with me."
After a few rounds of bickering, Yun Wanyao hurriedly ran to hide behind Yun Zheng, preemptively tattling on Yun Wanye.
"Badmouthing me behind my back and then tattling, do you want me to hit you?"
"Dad, he wants to hit me."
Yun Wanye: "..."
Fuming with anger, Yun Wanye felt a fiery rage rising from his head.
"Enough, stop bickering, go get your Seventh Uncle and Chenâer, your mother has something to discuss."
Yun Zheng flipped the teacup, calmly pouring himself a cup of tea, unusually not taking sides.
"Let Yun Wanyao go, I want to hold little sister."
"Mom will hold little sister; Iâll call big brother, you call Seventh Uncle."
Yun Wanyao returned Yun Wanqing to Lady Yun, determined not to let Yun Wanye hold her.
"Cang Xuan, go call Seventh Uncle."
Yun Wanye didnât move, just said to the outside, Cang Xuanâs figure quickly vanished, angering Yun Wanyao to the point of stomping her feet.
"Only you have a servant? Hua Wu, you go call big brother."
Hua Wu bowed to her, then turned and headed for the door.
Yun Wanye strode up to Yun Wanyao, "Tell me, what bad things did you say about me?"
"I didnât say..."
Yun Wanyao turned her head, lacking confidence.
[Huh, did sister get caught talking bad about second brother to people?]
[Doesnât seem like it, if she got caught, second brother wouldnât keep pressing her, he wouldnât ask if he knew.]
[It gave me a big scare, I almost thought second brother knew the embarrassing stuff sister told me about him yesterday, but I guess sister isnât that unlucky.]
[...]
Yun Wanyao: "..."
Little sister, can you stop thinking about it?
Your dear sister is almost completely sold out by you, sob sob sob~
Didnât you see how terrifying second brotherâs gaze is becoming?
In his mind, talking about his embarrassing stuff is even worse than badmouthing him!
"Yun, Wan, Yao~"
Yun Wanye gritted his teeth, glaring fiercely at her.
"Boohoo, second brother Iâm sorry, I was wrong, I wonât dare again in the future."
Yun Wanyao immediately clutched his sleeve to admit her mistake, Lady Yun shook her head, sighing, see, she knew it, even if she didnât say it, Yeâer would know.
After all, Xiao Si is a little chatterbox.
She canât talk, she gets bored easily, and doesnât know everyone can hear her thoughts, so she thinks whatever whenever.
In front of family, she has no secrets to speak of.
Whatever she knows, everyone else will know, itâs just a matter of time.
Hopefully, Yaoâer will remember this time, and gossip less about Yeâer behind his back in the future.
In the end, Yun Wanyao handed over more than half of her private savings to Yun Wanye, promised to never badmouth him again, and agreed to three of his conditions to settle the matter.
Indeed, provoking Yun Wanye means peeling a layer of skin, no matter who it is, even a passing dog has to leave some fur behind.
Yun Wanyao silently learned her lesson.
Yun Zhan and Yun Wanchen soon arrived, the whole family gathered neatly.
"Mom, you called Seventh Uncle and me, is there something important?"
"Yes."
Lady Yun nodded, standing up and looking at the two of them, "Seventh, Chenâer, we are all family, so Iâll speak candidly~"
