《Return To The Past: I Won't Choose Humility This Time!》Chapter 13: How Shameless
Advertisement
When Chen Li saw that Yun Xi had returned, she felt as if she had someone to rely on.
Actually, she did not want Yun Lian to take the ring. After all, Yun Lian was now a member of the eldest sister-in-law's family in name. It was safer to pass the family heirloom to her daughter, Yun Xi, in the house.
However, Chen Li had always felt that she owed Yun Lian too much and did not know how to reject her.
"Sister, after all, this is the dowry Grandma gave me. I don't think it's appropriate for you to take it."
Yun Xi did not exchange too many pleasantries with Yun Lian. There was not much to say to a hypocrite. Getting straight to the point was the best way.
"Yes, that's right. Grandma gave this to Sister."
Yun Yang also agreed. As expected, he could speak with confidence now that his second sister had become bold and independent.
"Sister, that's the dowry that Grandma prepared for the daughter in our family to bring to the Zhou family. Your marriage with Brother Mo has already been canceled."
What Yun Lian meant was that the ring had now become the dowry for the person marrying into the Zhou family, rather than a personal item that belonged solely to any daughter.
Moreover, she emphasized the fact that Yun Xi's engagement with Zhou Mo had already been broken off. Was she trying to rub salt in the wound?
However, Yun Lian probably did not expect that Yun Xi had long since forgotten about that sc*mbag.
If Yun Lian wanted such an irresponsible sc*mbag, Yun Xi could just give him to Yun Lian. However, Old Master Zhou was still rather tough. It was unknown whether the hypocrite would be able to enter the Zhou family.

"But Sister, what gives you the right to take the ring away?"
"Of course, it's because Brother Mo likes me. He said he would marry me."
"Sister, marriage is a big deal. You have to get the permission of the elders of both families and have a marriage contract. Without a marriage contract, who knows if Brother Mo was just fooling around?
"Sister, being fooled around is worse than being divorced."
"That's impossible. Brother Mo said that he would marry me for the rest of his life. He wasn't fooling around."
"Sigh. Sister, you never know. People change. This is some advice from me."
Yun Xi's few sentences had caused the hypocrite to be placed in a lowly position.
"However, the emerald ring doesn't belong to you anymore. Since Brother Mo likes me now, it should be in my hands."
Ha!
This sentence made Yun Xi laugh. She had seen shameless people before, but she had never seen anyone going that far.
"Sister, you're really thick-skinned.
"Even if it doesn't belong to me, it won't be yours. Zhou Mo and I have broken off our engagement, but you aren't engaged to Zhou Mo, are you? Therefore, the final authority of this ring should go to Grandma."
"But..."
Yun Lian could not refute Yun Xi's claims. Plus, she was accused of being thick-skinned. This was really a case of killing the goose that lays the golden eggs.
"Second Sister, if I were you, I would find a hole and hide in it right now."
Yun Yang, who was at the side, added in a timely manner.
Yun Lian's face immediately turned as red as a beetroot. She lowered her head, covered her face, and ran out of the room.
Was Zhou Mo unwilling to get engaged to Yun Lian?

Of course not. Zhou Mo had been completely seduced by the hypocrite, Yun Lian.
After Zhou Mo and Zhou Lin returned to the Zhou residence, Zhou Mo told his grandfather that he wanted to get engaged to the youngest daughter of the Yun family, Yun Lian.
Old Master Zhou's face instantly turned livid. "You rascal, are you trying to anger me to death?!
"I'm unable to hold my head up in front of Buddy Yun. Are you planning to trample me on the ground?
"Do you think marriage is child's play? Do you think you can change a girl for another one randomly?!"
Old Master Zhou was old, but he was still full of energy. His voice was especially loud when he scolded Zhou Mo.
Not only was Zhou Mo unable to marry Yun Lian openly, but he was also punished by Old Master Yun to kneel down. Many years later, when Zhou Mo thought of this matter, his hatred for Yun Lian grew even more.
Old Master Zhou no longer cared about the rascal and brought Zhou Lin to the study to discuss the matter. He muttered that he had wronged his buddy, Yun Yuan, and wanted to write him a letter to send him greetings..
