Chapter Fifty-Two: Negotiations

After she left the shop, Shi Xiu immediately called Xu Yun and told her what had happened. When she finished, she scorned, "Mom, they've gone too far. They even dared to blatantly throw Shi Nian's name around! Yun Nan means nothing to them. I really don't understand why Aunt Yun is so muddle-headed! Yun Nan is her biological daughter!"

Xu Yun was also furious and replied, "We never could stand Yun Liu's scheming ways—even before Yun Nan was in the picture—and Yun Xiang and Gu Wei were foolish, so we refused to agree to their marriage. Although Grandpa and Old Mr. Yun are friends, we can't sacrifice your brother's happiness for the prior generation's sake!"

"Thank goodness Yun Nan showed up. Our family is blessed to have her. Look at how happy Grandpa is. *Sigh* He'd been worried about this matter! It must be a weight off his mind seeing Shi Nian get together with Yun Nan."
