Chapter 486: Chapter 488 Threat (Part Three)
(Note: there are two more chapters before this.)
Yao Tianyu’s body shuddered, her eyes wide open in terror, “You… you want me to marry that tyrant? No! I don’t want to!!!”
As if she hadn’t seen the other’s terrified eyes, Yao Yunqing’s smile deepened, “Don’t worry, Yao Yunqing, I will have the Zhang Family take good care of you.”
When she spoke the words “take care” she deliberately emphasized the tone…
At that moment, Yao Tianyu finally felt fear, discarding all her dignity, and she flung herself at Yao Yunqing’s feet, pleading desperately, “I beg you, please don’t make me marry her. I was wrong, I really was wrong. I shouldn’t have stolen your man, but I didn’t know, did I? If I had known that you had set your sights on him, I would never have done such a thing.”
Yao Yunqing’s expression grew progressively colder.
“Yao Tianyu, you admit your mistake just because Xiao Feng is someone I know? What if it were someone else? Are they to be threatened and coerced by you? How innocent was Xiao Yun back then? And how about Xiao Feng now? It’s true we are from the Yao family, but our family rule is: if no one offends me, I do not offend anyone, but if someone offends me, I will annihilate their entire family! So, I want to ask, did Xiao Yun offend you, or did Xiao Feng offend you?”
Yao Tianyu’s hands gradually fell.
She had thought that because she was a member of the Yao family, even if the family learnt of their mistakes, they would protect them, but they had truly underestimated the family’s ruthlessness.
To think, they would go so far as to harm their own family members for an outsider…
Yao Tianyu suddenly burst into laughter, her voice pleasant but filled with a desolate and mournful air, “Yao Yunqing, you are truly heartless! To make me marry such a man… That son of the Zhang family is cruel and tyrannical, you are driving me to my death!”
Yao Tianyu stared intently at the woman kneeling on the ground, her voice sharp as she said, “I drive you to death? Yao Tianyu, now there are two things I know, and who knows how many mistakes you have made when I did not know? Grandpa handed over the power to me, I am the next Family Head of the Yao family. The family rules cannot be violated, and those who do must pay the price!”
She is not a kind person.
Some people deserve her sympathy, but for others, your sympathy only fuels their wrongdoing, as they exploit that sympathy to commit further misdeeds…
“Elder Zhang.”
Yao Tianyu slightly raised her head and coldly commanded, “Bring them back to the Yao family, and tell Grandpa about what happened here, punish them as I have directed!”
An aged figure rushed in from outside, his eyes filled with worry, “But miss, what about you…”
“Don’t worry, with Xiao Feng and Yue’er here, I won’t be in danger. When you get back to the family, you can also keep an eye on my second uncle, so he won’t dare to act rashly. Elder Zhang, in the family, besides Grandpa and my own parents, you are the only one I trust…”
Because the others are from the Yao family, some even have good relations with her second uncle. Only Elder Zhang, albeit not strong in strength, had cared for her mother since she was a child.
And had watched her grow up since she was a child…
So, in such a large family, he was the only one she could trust…
How sad is that?
It seemed Elder Zhang understood something as he slightly bowed and said, “Miss, rest assured, I will complete the task you have given me and report my second uncle’s actions to the Family Head.”
Yao Yunqing gently nodded, but said no more, turning her gaze to Mu Ruyue, “Yue’er, how should these people be dealt with?”
