Chapter 480: The Gift Giver

"You really know how to fool me, such a liar. I said no means no. Trying to deceive me? Get back to your room."

Her uncle was rather reclusive, so he didn't know.

Some stores were still bustling with business at eleven o'clock at night, which was their busiest time.

In the evening, Yu Xi sent a greeting asking if she was alright.

She replied with a simple "It's nothing."

She had grown accustomed to it, to being treated like a burden and despised by everyone.

In fact, not having parents really did invite disdain, because everyone knew she was inherently flawed.

She did have a mother, but unfortunately, having her was as good as not having one at all.

Her uncle asked her to come back to help prepare for the aunt's longevity banquet.

Her uncle was kind to outsiders, and everyone thought he was a nice guy. They just didn't know why he treated her the way he did.

He was universally acknowledged as good to his wife, having prepared everything for her.
