Old Master Yun's face darkened. Their Yun Family had lost every last shred of dignity.
Old Master Yun snapped:
"Get back inside this instant!"
Yun Zhizhi's hand already hurt terribly. After being scolded like this, she felt even more wronged.
Two older serving women stepped forward and, without allowing any argument, helped Yun Zhizhi back into the residence.
Old Master Yun did not dare scold those young wastrels. Instead, he turned to Yun Zhiyou, trying to guilt her into submission:
"Yun Zhiyou, whatever else happened, our Yun Family raised you. How could you bear to disgrace us so badly today? Don't you feel even a shred of guilt?"
"Guilt? Old Master Yun, how do you have the nerve to talk to me about guilt?
Today, all I wanted was to leave the Yun Family safely and smoothly, and never have anything to do with your family again.
If Yun Zhiye and his siblings hadn't refused to let the matter drop and kept throwing filth on my name, things would never have reached this point.
Yun Zhiye and the others are vicious. Even when I was leaving, they had no intention of letting me go.
They wanted to destroy me, to destroy my reputation.
With that stain on my name, how could I live a decent life afterward?
My conscience is clear. How could I let anyone slander me like that?
I will never carry such a stain on my name!
I want to live with my head held high!
Since they wouldn't let me go, I had no reason to save face for your Yun Family.
Besides, if your Yun Family hadn't stolen me away back then, I would surely still be with my birth parents now, enjoying who knows how much happiness!
My happiness and my life were ruined
