A Trap

After a long talk with Yun Yuanfeng and her youngest uncle, Yun Xi finally made an excuse to leave. When she got out of the mansion, she raised her head to look at the gray sky before closing her eyes and smiling bitterly.

The talk had been more than enough for her to see the true colors of her family.

Yun Yuanfeng didn't even try to hide his greed, while her youngest uncle had been carefully probing. Only her second uncle did not request anything from her. He even asked if she had enough money to live through the winter. That made Yun Xi take a glance at her real father, and all she felt was the irony of it all.

There was no warmth in the family anymore. All that was left were schemes and everyone taking advantage of each other.
