Ghost Emperor Wild Wife: Dandy Eldest Miss Chapter 2261 - Yun Chutian’s Return (25)

“Mother, do not worry. I will ensure that every person who caused Chutian suffering will not survive,” Yun Nianfeng declared, a flicker of murderous intent crossing his gaze.
A decade ago, Chutian was only a five-year-old girl. It was impossible to fathom the sheer terror a child of that age felt while being tied to a stake, waiting to be consumed by flames. Worse still, those people had reached a verdict on her crimes without a shred of investigation. He would never grant forgiveness to those who had tormented her.
Upon hearing these words, Ouyang Xun’s strength vanished. He collapsed onto the floor, his eyes drowning in total hopelessness.
He understood clearly that his end had arrived.
“You... you are the mother of Yun Nianfeng?” Wang Haotian stared at Yun Luofeng with a dazed expression. His eyes were a chaotic mix of emotions, ranging from regret to fury—though his rage was aimed squarely at Wang Xuelian.
Yun Luofeng tilted her head slightly, her brow arching as she observed Wang Haotian. “And who might you be?”
Noticing his mother’s confusion, Yun Nianfeng stood and explained, “Mother, this person attempted to poison Chutian, but I uncovered his scheme. In the end, we brought Ouyang Yue here to take her place and fulfill his original plan.”
Yun Luofeng’s eyes narrowed into slits, her body radiating a cold, lethal intent.
“I...” Wang Haotian was consumed by remorse. “I acknowledge my crimes and will submit to whatever penalty you decree. My only goal was to act for the benefit of Miss Chutian, and seeing how much you truly care for her, I can finally find some peace.”
A bitter, self-deprecating smile touched Wang Haotian’s lips as he turned his gaze toward Wang Xuelian. “She was the one who claimed she had a friend whose parents you murdered. She insisted you had stolen their family fortune. However, now that I recognize your true identity, I realize you are far too proud to ever stoop to such acts.”
The irony was that he had placed his trust in Wang Xuelian, leading him to commit such a catastrophic blunder.
Yun Luofeng shifted her cold stare toward Wang Xuelian, who was attempting to hide within the gathered crowd. “What is her name?” she asked. Wang Haotian answered, “Wang Xuelian.”
“Wang Xuelian?” Yun Luofeng let out a mocking sneer. “I suspect her name is actually Yun Xuelian.”
Hearing this, Wang Xuelian’s panic intensified, and she grew visibly more agitated.
The onlookers were left in a state of confusion as they watched the flustered woman.
“Yun Xuelian? The daughter of that treacherous pair, Yun Tianqi and Li Cuicui?” Yun Chutian stepped forward, her voice trembling with anger. “I never imagined you would also find your way to this Continent from Huaxia! How dare you spread lies about my mother. When did she ever seize your family’s wealth? It was your parents who murdered my mother’s parents back in Huaxia and stole their inheritance. They even threw my mother out onto the streets! And yet, you have the nerve to twist the truth like this?”
The surrounding crowd, though unfamiliar with the specifics of Huaxia, began to piece together the reality of the situation from their heated exchange.
Wang Haotian stared at Wang Xuelian in profound shock. “I should have realized sooner. My sister was always such a gentle, obedient girl; how could she have changed so drastically? It is a tragedy that I never once doubted that you weren’t actually my sister...”
The truth had finally surfaced. Everything was now transparent. His only lingering concern was whether his father’s heart could survive the shock once the truth was revealed.
“Wait, this isn't right!” Wang Xuelian shook her head violently, her face turning a ghostly shade of white. “This is not how things are supposed to happen. I transmigrated from another world! Just like the stories, I am supposed to be the main character. If I am the lead, then everything should go my way. In those novels, people with childhood marriage contracts are just stepping stones for the protagonist!”
She couldn't understand why the world refused to follow her script.
“If you had stayed in Huaxia and lived quietly, you might have kept your life,” Yun Luofeng said coldly. “But since you have come looking for death, do not blame me for what happens next.”
