Chapter 64 Becoming someone's mistress

"I didn't do anything. Perhaps even Heaven couldn't stand by and watch the Li family's heartlessness," Yun Wei interrupted him.

Even so, Yun Yueshan was still taken aback.

He knew very well how difficult it was for women to get a divorce these days.

This time, however, without the help of her family, the daughter not only successfully divorced but also managed to take her dowry with her. It's impossible to say she didn't have some tricks up her sleeve.

For the first time, he gained a new understanding of this daughter.

"Where are you living now? Living outside isn't always the best option, so why don't you move back in?" After a moment of silence, Yun Yueshan spoke.

Yun Wei said calmly, "Thank you for your kindness, Father, but I'm more comfortable living outside."

"So you plan to stay at the inn indefinitely?" Madam Xu frowned.

"Who told you I was staying at an inn?" Yunwei retorted.

“If you don’t stay at an inn, where else can you stay?” Madam Xu said dismissively. “When you got married, I wanted to give you that villa in Yangliu Hutong, but you said you wanted the shop more.”

“I live in Qingyi Garden,” Yunwei interrupted her.

Xu did want to give her a villa, but she knew that the location wasn't good, and the courtyard was small, which she didn't like. Anyway, she didn't need a house to live in, so she didn't accept it.

"Qingyi Garden?" Yun Yao looked suspicious. "I don't think I've ever heard of such a residence in the capital."

In her view, Qingyi Garden must be located in a remote and dilapidated place.

“There are plenty of places you haven’t heard of,” Yun Wei said casually. “In Xiangcheng Street.”

"What?" Yun Yao frowned, then said with a pained expression, "Sister, you don't need to put on a brave face. The area around Xiangcheng Street is full of officials."

The implication is that, with Yunwei's abilities, she wouldn't be able to afford a house on Xiangcheng Street without her family's support.

Apart from Lou Chaoan, everyone else shared the same thought.

Yunwei didn't want to explain, "Anyway, I have a place to stay, so I won't move back."

Madam Xu sighed and said, "Although you didn't discuss the divorce with the family, we can't just stand by and watch you have nowhere to go. Don't be so stubborn, move back home."

"No need," Yun Wei refused outright.

At this moment, Yun Yao's expression suddenly changed. "Sister insists that you live on Xiangcheng Street. You haven't done something stupid, have you?"

Yun Wei frowned. "What are you trying to say?"

“We understand that you’ve just divorced and want to find someone else, but to become someone’s mistress would bring shame to the family. As a daughter of the Yun family, there’s no need for you to debase yourself,” Yun Yao advised.

Upon hearing this, the expressions of Yun Yueshan and the others, which had just softened, changed again in an instant, especially those of Xu Shi and Yun Qi.

"Weiwei, how could you do such a foolish thing?"

"What a jerk!"

Yun Wei's gaze pierced Yun Qi like icy shards. "What did you say?"

Yun Qi subconsciously wanted to avoid her gaze, but after realizing it, he felt annoyed. Why should he avoid Yun Wei, a village girl who grew up in the countryside?

Thinking of this, he sneered, "What did I say? You've already become someone's mistress, and you're still afraid of what people say?"

Yun Wei was furious. She grabbed a teacup from the table and threw it at him, yelling, "You can't expect anything good to come out of a dog's mouth!"

Yun Qi glanced at her contemptuously, raised his hand to knock the teacup down, but unexpectedly, the teacup suddenly shattered as soon as his hand touched it.

Although he managed to raise his sleeve to block it in time, he was still splashed with a few drops of scalding tea on his face, and his robes were already soaked with tea stains.

Seeing his disheveled clothes, he was furious. "Yunwei!"

Lou Chao'an glanced at Yun Wei thoughtfully. If he wasn't mistaken, the teacup she had thrown out was infused with internal energy.

Also visible is Yunyue Mountain.

He looked at his daughter in disbelief.

She actually knows martial arts?
"As the heir of the Marquis of Pingning's mansion, you have no opinions or judgment of your own. You just believe whatever others say." Yun Wei said with a look of sarcasm.

Yun Qi said angrily, "If you hadn't done something that brought shame to the family, how could you be living in the house on Xiangcheng Street? When you got married, the family didn't give you a separate house."

"Do you think everyone is like you, relying on their family?" Yun Wei sneered.

Yun Qi's expression changed, and then he sneered, "If you didn't rely on your family, you'd still be in the countryside right now."

Yunwei did not refute.

When the Yun family found her, she was indeed in the countryside.

Seeing that she didn't speak, Yun Qi thought she was guilty and said sarcastically, "So, how can you say you don't need to rely on your family? Of course, if you find a sugar daddy, you really won't need to rely on your family anymore."

Yun Wei looked at him coldly, her almond-shaped eyes icy. "Are you so sure I found a sugar daddy? What proof do you have?"

Yun Qi choked, but quickly added, "If not, how come you have a house on Xiangcheng Street?"

“Of course, it’s based on my own abilities,” Yun Wei said.

"Your so-called skill is being someone's mistress?" Yun Qi said disdainfully.

Yun Yao also said, "Although you are divorced, with your character and looks, why would you become someone's mistress? You should stop now and break up with that person."

"Shut up!" Yun Wei said coldly. "Are you all hoping for my misfortune? Or are you all just corrupt and think such despicable things about me? The house I live in was earned through my own business. If you keep throwing mud at me, don't blame me for being impolite!"

"What kind of business is so profitable?" Yun Yao asked in surprise.

Yun Qi scoffed, "Being someone's mistress naturally makes money. I just don't know which high-ranking official you've hooked up with, that you can afford to buy a house for me on Xiangcheng Street."

Yun Wei laughed angrily, "With so much experience, you wouldn't happen to be keeping a mistress on the side, would you?"

Yun Qi's expression changed, "Don't you dare make false accusations!"

"Isn't it you who's spouting nonsense?" Yun Wei sneered.

Yun Qi clenched his fist.

As the heir of the Pingning Marquis's mansion, he was born surrounded by admirers and his family always doted on him. Yet, no one dared to defy him like Yun Wei did.

A dark glint flashed across his eyes.

"Enough," Yun Yueshan said, breaking the tense standoff between the two. "You're siblings, arguing over such a trivial matter. Is that appropriate?"

Yun Yao said sadly, "It's all my fault. I shouldn't have told my sister about it. After all, it's not a shameful thing, and it's understandable that my sister felt embarrassed."

Standing behind Yunwei, Tian'er's eyes reddened with anger. How could the Third Miss be like this? She made it sound like something that hadn't happened was true.

She couldn't help but say indignantly, "Miss is very capable, not what you think. Qingyi Garden was earned by Miss through her own business, and Miss doesn't know any officials in the court."

"Do you even have a place to speak here?" Yun Qi said with a stern face.

Sweetie was very anxious and wanted to say more to defend her mistress, but her status as a servant prevented her from saying anything more.

"Are you so afraid of my maid's words? Or are you afraid of others finding out that you're deliberately trying to smear me?" Yun Wei's face turned cold.

Yun Qi sneered, "If you don't want people to know, then don't do it in the first place."

"I'll say the same to you, Yunqi. You go to Hulu Street often, right? Next time you go, make sure it's dark. During the day, there are too many people around, and you're more likely to be spotted. Going at night will avoid a lot of trouble," Yunwei said meaningfully.
