She skimmed through a few pages of auction items, and on each item the name of the owner was written.
However, the “Longyun Jade Seal” on the final page didn’t have the name of the owner written down, and that made her a little curious.
Her mother had had the audacity to try to bribe someone to steal the final auction item. How reckless!
The security staff of the auction house were all Mu Feichi’s subordinates. She was now curious about how much money her mother had spent on bribing these people.
Of course, she knew the extent of her shadiness.
Seeing how the person had reported the incident to Mu Feichi right after she had bribed him, he probably hadn’t taken her seriously at all.
Moreover, it wasn’t easy to steal things from this auction, so it didn’t make sense for things to have gone so smoothly for her mom.
The more she thought about it, the more she felt that the mastermind behind the scenes wasn’t her mother, but…
She frowned as she stared at the Longyun Jade Seal in the auction brochure. Then she realized what was going on and immediately sucked in her breath.
That jerk Mu Feichi! What about his promise about not intervening?
This had obviously started as a trap that her mother had set for her, but, as if he thought things weren’t severe enough, he’d decided to intervene and blow things up out of all proportion.
The thing her mother had wanted to steal probably wasn’t the Longyun Jade Seal, but some other small object.
In order to make things worse for her, he’d deliberately sent the final auction item, the Longyun Jade Seal, to her mother.
Liang Xiuqin had set a trap for her to fall into, so Mu Feichi had gone along with it and used the item he’d put up for auction to add icing to the cake.
So when he’d called in the afternoon, he was clearly provoking her instead of warning her.
He wanted to see what she would do on this sort of occasion.
She’d finally understood why he’d asked her whether she was afraid that he would add salt to the wound. He wasn’t adding salt to the wound, he was fueling the flames.
Once this evening’s incident was blown out of all proportion, not only would her mother not be able to survive, but the entire Yun family would lose face in Jingdu.
She’d just wanted to punish her. She hadn’t wanted things to get too ugly.
However, after he’d intervened, if she was found stealing a national treasure belonging to Young Marshal Mu of China, she could go to prison.
Her mother was digging her own grave, while Mu Feichi was making mischief.
She had to look out for both of them, because they were conniving against her.
Her mother wanted to see her disgraced in front of the entire high society so she would have to be sent back to the countryside.
What about Young Marshal Mu?
There was not enough drama in his life, so he’d decided to fuel the flames in order to test her ability to adapt in this situation.
Or maybe…
She suddenly couldn’t understand this man. He was so enigmatic that she even feared digging deeper.
This evening, there were only two options: either go with the original plan or use their own schemes against them.
Her mother wanted to frame her for the theft, and she’d originally planned on planting the stuff on Liang Xinyi to serve as a warning not to mess with her.
But now…
She looked up at Liang Xinyi and Yun Ziling, who were heading to the bathroom together, and she took her handbag from behind her and stood up.
“Second Aunt, I’m going to the bathroom.”
“Okay, be careful and ask the hotel attendant if you can’t find your way.”
“Got it!”
She couldn’t stop her mother from digging her own grave, but she can’t let her ruin the entire family’s reputation in Jingdu.
After all, she’d come back to the Yun family to inherit its mantle.
After coming back to life, she didn’t want to be a failure again.
Therefore, she can’t have her reputation stained by a mother in prison.
Yun Xi, Liang Xinyi, and Yun Ziling practically entered the bathroom at the same time. Seeing her come in, Yun Ziling scoffed coldly and walked in front of her.
Yun Xi smiled, put her bag on the sink, took a paper towel from her handbag, then squatted down to wipe her dirty shoes.
Seeing her bag wide open, Liang Xinyi, who was waiting for an opportunity, glanced at her, and quickly took the jade seal from her own bag and placed it in Yun Xi’s bag.
In order to ease her guilty conscience, she kindly handed a tissue to Yun Xi. “I have more, do you want some?”
“Yes!” Yun Xi took it politely and lowered her head to continue wiping.
It wasn’t until Liang Xinyi and Yun Ziling had walked out of the bathroom that she stood up and looked at her bag on the sink.
