Imperial Commander: His Pretty Wife Is Spoiled Rotten

The Old Master's choice was within Yun Xi and Xiao Jinglin's expectations.

Although the Yun family was not one of the most prestigious families in Jingdu, their status rose by quite a bit because of Yun Xi.

When the Yun family of Jingdu was mentioned, the first person one would think of was still Yun Xi, who shone brightly with her accomplishments and accolades.

When the Yun family was linked with Yun Xi, they were bound together for good or ill.

Now, Yun Xi was no longer a member of the Yun family. Because of Yun Yuanfeng's matter, the entire circle in Jingdu had received news about the Yun family.

Once Yun Xi's true identity was exposed, if the outside world knew that the Yun family had given up Yun Yuanfeng's life for their benefit, then the entire Yun family would become the target of criticism!

No matter how many benefits they gained from Xiao Jinglin, the Yun family would no longer be able to survive in Jingdu!

Xiao Jinglin did not say anything. He only promised Old Master Yun that he would try his best to keep Yun Yuanfeng alive.

For Yun Yuanfeng, spending the rest of his life in prison was no different from losing his life.

However, as long as he was alive, the Yun family would have a better reputation in Jingdu.

After all, the Old Master thought far ahead compared to Yun Qingfeng, who was short-sighted.

After negotiating with Yun Yuanfeng, Xiao Jinglin was not in a hurry to leave. Instead, he wanted to discuss announcing Yun Xi's identity with the Yun family.

Although he was her biological father, Yun Xi was still legally Yun Yuanfeng's child.

Now that something like this had happened to Yun Yuanfeng, he wanted to see how far the Yun family's attitude toward Yun Xi could go and consider whether he should cooperate with the Yun family.

Unfortunately, ever since he stepped into the Yun family household, the Old Master had only cared about whether he could save Yun Yuanfeng's life. In contrast, Yun Qingfeng only cared about the benefits that the Xiao family could bring to the Teng Yun Company.

It was to the extent that, from the inside to the outside, they were all talking about how good Yun Xi was in the Yun family. But, in the end, they were just hoping that Yun Xi could stay in the Yun family so that they could obtain more benefits from the Xiao family.

How could he not know how Yun Xi was doing in the Yun family?

When he found out that she was his biological daughter, he had already thoroughly investigated Yun Xi's life in the countryside and the Yun family!

If it weren't for the old master's meager living expenses that had supported Yun Xi growing up, he wouldn't even want to step foot inside the threshold of the Yun Residence!

From beginning to end, the Yun family had never considered Yun Xi's reputation.

Xiao Jinglin had indeed overestimated the Yun family.

He decided not to stay in the Yun Residence anymore.

"The Xiao family will deal with the matter of Yun Xi's identity so that we won't trouble the Yun family. After all, it's not good for her to be linked to the Yun family now. She is my daughter, after all. As her father, I have no reason to let her suffer."

Saying that, Xiao Jinglin did not even intend to give the Yun family any face.

"..." Old Master Yun finally realized that he had neglected a vast matter!

He decided to protect Yun Yuanfeng, but by the time he thought it through and crafted an explanation, Xiao Jinglin had already turned around and left the living room.

"Yun Xi..."

Old Master Yun looked at Yun Xi and felt reluctant to part with her.

He couldn't tell why he couldn't bear to part with her.

Although she did not grow up by his side, and he did not love this granddaughter the most, ever since she returned, she had performed exceptionally well in all aspects and had even become the pride of the entire Yun family.

However, such an outstanding child would no longer belong to the Yun family.

Yun Xi paused in her step and released a light sigh.

She turned to look at the old master, who was leaning on his walking stick. After Yun Yuanfeng's incident, the old master seemed to have aged a lot.

After her rebirth, she believed in karma more than anyone else.

Although Yun Yuanfeng's retribution was fueled by her revenge, it was also his own fault.

She could have been even more ruthless to the Yun family, even causing them to vanish from Jingdu.

However, since Old Master Yun had treated her well in the past, she would keep the good karma and not take the most extreme actions toward the Yun family.

"Grandpa, it's cold outside. You should go back in! There's no need to send me off. I'll come back to visit you when I'm free!"
