Chapter 78: Persuasion 𝘧𝓇𝗲𝑒we𝙗noѵ𝑒l.𝐜o𝘮
When Su Yan returned home, it was already past ten o’clock. As she looked at the lights of the Yun family’s villa, her eyes were filled with anxiety.
During the day, when she recalled that the Yun family had obtained that piece of land, Su Yan broke out in cold sweat.
The price of that piece of land was not low to begin with, and it would make a lot of profit if it worked well. But the problem was that it did not work well at all. When the materials were ready and they were preparing to build the foundation, the ancient tomb was dug out.
The person in charge of the construction site immediately wanted to suppress this matter. However, the subsequent construction had caused part of the ancient tomb to collapse. He could not hide it anymore and reported it.
The archeologists conducted a rescue excavation of the ancient tomb. When the people above saw that the artifacts in several tombs were damaged, they were furious.
After that, the Yun family was ostracized by the upper echelons of Jing City. The country did not give them any face. Not long after, the Yun family declined.
Thinking about the fate of the Yun family in her previous life, Su Yan sighed. They were indeed worthy of their reputation of having internal and external troubles.
When Su Yan stepped into the Yun family’s villa, Yun Chang was pouring tea for Old Master Yun. When Yun Chang was young, he didn’t like drinking tea, which was bitter and astringent. However, as he grew older, Yun Chang liked tea more and more.
When he saw Su Yan enter, Yun Chang even smiled and poured a cup of tea for Su Yan. “Try it. This is the latest Longjing tea from this year.”
Su Yan took the teacup and took a sip. The tea was fresh and had an indescribable fragrance.
“Worried about us?” Old Master Yun asked with a smile. The worry on Su Yan’s face had yet to fade, and anyone with eyes could tell at a glance.
Su Yan sat down in silence. This was the first time she felt powerless after her rebirth. She knew that it was not good, but Su Yan could not say it.
“Okay, Xiao Xi, we will take note of it. It’s just that we have been preparing for this project for a long time. If we give it up just like that, it will be a little too much to bear.”
Yun Chang sighed.
The bad thing about a big family and business is the decision making. Not everything was up to his family to decide. He had to consider the opinions of others and those restless collateral branches. With this in mind, Yun Chang felt his head swell.
Su Yan knew this too. Su Yan sighed again. “Must it be that piece of land?”
Hearing Su Yan’s words, Old Master Yun chuckled. “What can’t be changed?”
Meeting Yun Chang’s gaze, Old Master Yun only smiled and said, “Since Xixi doesn’t want us to get involved in that land, then we won’t get involved. If those ignorant old fellows have any objections, get them to look for me.”
“Grandpa?” Su Yan could not believe that Old Master Yun would say something like that. Old Master Yun had always given Su Yan the impression that he was calm and experienced. This sort of childish words did not match his style.
“Once a person is getting old, he should retire and enjoy the happiness of his children and grandchildren. Why does he insist on staying at the company and not leaving?” Old Master Yun drank a mouthful of tea. His words were kind and gentle, but after thinking about it carefully, he felt that they weren’t very friendly.
There was also a vague feeling that a storm was coming.
Yun Chang agreed with Old Master Yun’s words. “The world belongs to the younger generation now. When do you think your generation will be able to grow? When the time comes, I’ll be able to pass the responsibility to you and I’ll be able to relax.”
It was only then that Su Yan realized that she had not seen her cousin Yun Zhen, who had persuaded her to return to the Yun family during her coming-of-age ceremony, since she came to Jing City.
“Are you talking about Ah Zhen?” Old Master Yun was annoyed at the mention of this. “That fellow insisted that he had something else to do overseas. After he returned from City A, he went overseas immediately.”
“Eh?” Su Yan recalled what Yun Zhen had told her about his ambition to inherit the Yun family, and realized that she seemed to have been… deceived?
“Did you hear Ah Zhen say that he wants to inherit the Yun family?” Old Master Yun laughed for a while when he saw Su Yan’s shocked expression. “It’s all Ah Zhen’s nonsense. This brat doesn’t know what to say.”
Su Yan lowered her head and drank her tea silently. She did not know if it was her imagination, but she did recall the scene where Yun Zhen tricked her.
“By the way, Third Uncle, is Uncle Yun Xuan handling anything?”
Upon hearing Su Yan mention serious matters, Yun Chang’s expression immediately turned cold. “How can I let a traitor like Yun Xuan off?” Yun Chang sneered. “Although we don’t have the intention to work on the east side of the city anymore, we have been tricked. How can we not demand an explanation?”
Looking at Yun Chang’s expression, Su Yan finally realized that her gentle Third Uncle had such ruthlessness. Even his aura became fierce. But on second thought, Yun Chang had been the head of the Yun family for more than ten years, so he was naturally not soft-hearted.
“Xiao Xi, just watch. The subsequent developments will definitely not disappoint you.” With that said, Yun Chang poured another cup of tea, with a raise of his hand, he exuded a sharp aura.
