"Kneeling for you? How could that be? Yun Shu, stop dreaming!"
"Speaking of which, we were trying to do good for you before. You were the one who made all sorts of disgraceful mistakes. What does that have to do with us?"
"Mei Yuan, let's go. Don't mind her." Li Yue'e tugged at Wang Mei-yuan's sleeve.
Seeing that each of them was more shameless than the last.
Yun Shu couldn't help but chuckle, her laughter clear and pleasant.
Hearing this laughter, Wang Mei-yuan and the others felt a shiver, though they didn't know why.
"Do you still remember how you used to bully the former Yun Shu?" Yun Shu asked, a half-smile playing on her lips, her tone remarkably gentle.
It was as if she were truly chatting with good friends.
Not far outside the door, Yun Changfeng, who had just finished his talk with Old Madam Yun, passed by the reception hall and saw Yun Shu inside.
He saw Yun Shu smiling brightly, appearing very happy.
Seeing his daughter happy made him happy.
It seemed that Shu'er was truly delighted to have friends over. He decided not to disturb her.
Although he longed to talk with his daughter and hear about her experiences over the past few years.
For now, he would let his daughter spend time with her friends.
As soon as Yun Shu saw Yun Changfeng walk away from the vicinity of the door, the smile on her lips suddenly turned cold and distant.
"We never bullied her!" Qu Jiaojiao rolled her eyes, utterly denying it. She tugged at Zheng Shuang-shuang beside her, about to leave.
Wang Yi-yuan also knew she wouldn't gain anything today. She had initially thought she was coming to witness Yun Shu's pathetic state and perhaps bully her further, making Yun Shu a spectacle on the streets of the capital once more. But instead!
Instead, Yun Shu was no longer foolish!
Wang Yi-yuan stared at Yun Shu's face, which outshone everyone else, her eyes filled with jealousy.
Then, she said to Li Yue'e beside her, "Let's go!"
Li Yue'e, obedient to Wang Yi-yuan's every word, followed Wang Mei-yuan as they left.
Watching the backs of the four as they departed.
Yun Shu winked at Jing Heng by the door, shrugging her shoulders. "Are you willing to give them any of your good things?"
"Yes," Jing Heng replied, then ascended into the air, radiating a chilling aura.
In front of the General's mansion.
The four of them boarded a large carriage.
Once inside the carriage, the four could no longer contain their overwhelming jealousy and anger.
"Damn it! How did Yun Shu suddenly become so smart? She was clearly so foolish! And what about her five years away? Shouldn't she have suffered greatly during that time? Not enough to eat, not enough to wear! Yet, she's even more..." Li Yue'e gnashed her teeth in anger.
"Truly detestable and hateful!" Qu Jiaojiao seethed.
They had been made to look like mere maids just now!
Before, it was Yun Shu who hovered around them, being toyed with.
But now, Yun Shu had been arrogant, completely disregarding them.
Wang Mei-yuan narrowed her eyes coldly. "Her change is so drastic, we need to be careful from now on. Perhaps she'll seek revenge on us."
"Revenge on us? She dares! If she dares to take revenge, we'll all deal with her together! Her father was a great general before, but in recent years, it's been Yun Yue-yin's father fighting on the front lines. As long as we remain on good terms with Yun Yue-yin, we have nothing to fear!" Zheng Shuang-shuang sneered.
Wang Mei-yuan frowned. "I somehow feel that what Yun Shu said earlier was strange."
"What was strange?"
Suddenly.
The carriage stopped.
Unexpectedly.
A puff of smoke drifted in through the carriage window.
"What's going on?"
