Back home, Yun Xi stood at the brightly lit gate and took deep breaths as she calmed herself down.
She'd won the battle, and this was the happiest she had ever been in both of her lifetimes.
There was still a good show awaiting her inside the house, but she couldn't appear too obviously smug.
Only by stealthily pretending to be a pig while preying on a tiger could she be as deadly.
Sure enough, as soon as she stepped into the living room, she felt the grave vibe.
Grandpa and her father were sitting on the sofa. Liang Xiuqin, Yun Ziling, and Liang Xinyi were standing off to the side. All three of them had sulky expressions.
As she approached, Yun Xi could see a red five-fingered mark on her mother's face and that her eyes were red.
When her mother saw Yun Xi returning, her eyes fired daggers at her, as if she wished she could tear her into pieces.
"Grandpa, Dad, I'm back!"
