Chapter 51 Luckily I Didn't
“No need,” Yun Xingzhou’s voice was so cold it could shatter ice crystals. “Just let Ji Cheng take them.”
Guo Wenxiang said meaningfully, "Hey Xingzhou, I'm your uncle-in-law, so Tianbin is your cousin. It's his duty to entertain family members. Wouldn't it be better to let the two kids get to know each other better? Don't leave everything to outsiders."
“There’s no need to cultivate a relationship. Xiao Rui and I call you Uncle-in-law only because you were married to my aunt. Strictly speaking, you’re no longer my uncle-in-law after my aunt passed away, let alone Chen Tianbin, who has no relation to the Yun family.”
Yun Xingzhou showed no regard for Guo Wenxiang's feelings.
"Ji Cheng is no stranger to me. Ji Cheng, why don't you take Xiao Rui and Xiao Ling to the resort? They must be tired from the flight, so they should get some rest first."
"Yes, Mr. Yun," Ji Cheng replied.
An Ling and Yun Shurui also turned around and prepared to leave.
Guo Wenxiang was humiliated and looked very unhappy, but he also knew that he couldn't go up against Yun Xingzhou.
After all, Yun Xingzhou is the one in charge of the Yun family. His visit to Ningcheng this time clearly shows that he doesn't trust him. Guo Wenxiang just wants him to go back to Haicheng as soon as possible and avoid provoking him if possible.
But Guo Wenxiang's clear understanding of the situation doesn't mean Chen Tianbin can swallow his anger.
He was used to being a bully in Ningcheng and had never seen anyone dare to speak to him and his son like that. Seeing that An Ling and Yun Shurui were about to leave without looking back, he grabbed Yun Shurui's hand, who was closer to him, without thinking.
"Hey, sisters, don't go!"
Chen Tianbin was greeted with a crisp slap.
Yun Shurui wiped her left hand, which had just been grabbed, and her right hand, which had slapped Chen Tianbin, on her clothes, looking disgusted.
"Sorry, it was just a subconscious reaction. Did I hurt you?"
Chen Tianbin never expected Yun Shurui to attack without saying a word, and he was completely stunned.
When Guo Wenxiang saw his precious son being hit, he was filled with rage and, without thinking, raised his hand to slap Yun Shurui back in the face.
Before Guo Wenxiang could strike, Yun Xingzhou gripped his wrist tightly, his sharp eyes fixed on Guo Wenxiang. "Are you trying to lay a hand on my sister right in front of me?"
Guo Wenxiang was intimidated by Yun Xingzhou's imposing manner and knew that his current behavior was indeed somewhat inappropriate. However, he felt aggrieved to simply swallow his anger, so he could only angrily shake off Yun Xingzhou's hand and question him, "So your sister can hit my son in front of me?"
“Your son made physical contact with her without her consent. Shu Rui was just reacting instinctively. You should tell your son to control his hands instead of questioning him here,” An Ling said, weighing the phone in her right hand. “You should be glad he didn’t touch me, or this phone would have hit him on the temple.”
Guo Wenxiang and Chen Tianbin stared at An Ling's phone in silence.
Chen Tianbin, in particular, felt a phantom pain in his temples.
There was no way around it; the story of An Ling knocking someone unconscious with her trophy at the awards ceremony had spread far and wide. They had all seen the video, and the force with which she swung the trophy was undeniable. Chen Tianbin had no doubt about the truthfulness of An Ling's words; he believed that An Ling was truly capable of doing such a thing.
So compared to being hit on the temple by a phone, being slapped doesn't seem so unacceptable, huh?
Chen Tianbin usually dares to act so recklessly simply because his family is rich and his father protects him. He is essentially a bully who preys on the weak. Now that he has met a tough opponent, his arrogance has been instantly extinguished by half. At least on the surface, he dares not say anything more and can only watch helplessly as An Ling and Yun Shurui are taken away by Ji Cheng.
While on her way to the resort, Yun Shurui contacted Yun Xingzhou via WeChat and explained An Lingxin's situation to him. Many of the things she mentioned were told to her by An Chong after Guan Zhengyan's birthday party. Yun Shurui also added Yun Xingzhou to a WeChat group called "Be careful not to wander into other groups (without Xiaoling)".
[Yun Shurui invited Yun Xingzhou to join the group chat.]
Yun Xingzhou was surprised to find so many people in the group. Shu Rui said that everyone in the group was certain that they could hear An Ling's thoughts.
An Chong: Starship? You can hear me too?
Yun Xingzhou: Yes, I only noticed it when I saw An Ling just now.
An Chong: What did you hear?
Yun Xingzhou: They said my uncle transferred company assets, and that the child his second wife brought with him was actually his biological son. He even wanted to introduce his biological son to Xiao Rui.
An Chong: Pats shoulder.gif
An Chong: You must have had a tough time having such a bizarre relative.
An Chong: Luckily I didn't.
An Chong and Yun Xingzhou were close, and An Chong knew that with An Ling's reminder, Yun Xingzhou would definitely be able to handle the matter properly. So he made a lighthearted joke to help Yun Xingzhou relax, since he knew better than anyone how disgusting it was to learn about such a thing, like swallowing a fly.
Yun Xingzhou smiled and was about to retort when his younger sister had already "taken revenge" for him.
Yun Shurui: I also heard Xiaoling say that my brother's good brothers are so loyal. One of her brother's good brothers wanted to sleep with him, another sent an actor to deceive him emotionally and financially, and the third got together with his girlfriend and almost made him take the blame and go to jail.
Yun Xingzhou: You guys have had a tough time having such quirky brothers.
Yun Xingzhou: Luckily I didn't.
An Chong: ...
Qiu Li: ...
When Yun Xingzhou saw that An Ling had mentioned three brothers, only two of them had replied. When he checked the group member list, he found that An Yun was not there.
Yun Xingzhou: Where's An Yun? Can't he hear me?
An Chong: We only recently discovered that we can hear it. An Yun hasn't met Xiao Ling yet, so we're not sure.
An Chong: Anyway, remember not to let anyone else know about this. I'll have to trouble you guys with Xiao Ling these next few days.
Yun Xingzhou: Don't worry, I'll take good care of Xiaoling. Besides, she helped me so much this time, I'm too grateful to even think about thanking her. It won't be a bother at all.
After greeting An Ling's parents in the group chat, Yun Xingzhou privately messaged Yun Shurui, telling her that he would investigate the matter of Chen Tianbin that An Ling had mentioned and rescue the girl as soon as possible. He asked her to subtly inform An Ling so that An Ling wouldn't get anxious or even risk exposing herself.
After agreeing, Yun Shurui looked at An Ling sitting to the side and said, "Xiao Ling, I'm sorry that those two people affected your mood. But you don't need to worry about them. Although they are nominally my uncle, we don't really have any real relationship with them anymore. Besides, my brother said that they are both scumbags and he has already sent people to investigate them."
"Your brother is investigating them? What happened to them?"
"It seems that Guo Wenxiang is transferring Yun's assets, and Chen Tianbin seems to have forced other girls and used money to settle things. Anyway, my brother already has clues and is investigating. Those two won't be able to cause trouble for long."
Yun Shurui calmly recounted what she had heard from An Ling.
"Moreover, it seems that Chen Tianbin is Guo Wenxiang's biological son, not the son of his second wife at all!"
"Huh?" An Ling was stunned. Wasn't this exactly the same thing she was planning to remind Yun Shurui of?
