The corner of Yun Zhang’s lips curled up slightly into a disdainful smile as he stood watching at the side. ‘Why didn’t I notice Yun Liu’s clumsy pretenses in the past?’ he thought. ‘Our whole family’s blind. We’re all fools, getting played around by trash like her, and we nearly lost everything to her, too. We brought it on ourselves, really.’

Gu Wei looked at her son and coldly asked, “What about you two? When are you guys planning to get married?”

Yun Zhang’s expression was serious as he told her, “That can wait, Mom. Everyone outside already knows Yun Liu and I are together, so there’s no rush. Yun Liu’s an artiste of Yun Entertainment, so when the hype about our relationship dies down, we can put out news of our wedding and use it to increase her publicity. It’ll also be a good thing for Yun Entertainment.”

Gu Wei was startled, not understanding what her son meant. Yun Liu asked in a trembling voice, “Are you trying to use my reputation to benefit Yun Entertainment?”

Yun Zhang gave her a smile that didn’t reach his eyes as he said gently, “Come now, don’t put it like that. You’re also a member of the Yun family, aren’t you? Yun Entertainment was once handed to you before, too. It’s our family’s business, so shouldn’t you contribute?”

Yun Liu couldn’t help but stand up and scream at Yun Zhang, “And then what? What do you want to do after that, huh?”

Gu Wei immediately frowned. “Yun Liu, is that any way to talk to your brother? Is this how the Gu family taught you to behave?”

Yun Liu turned around to glare at her, and snapped back, “The Gu family didn’t teach me my manners; the Yun family did!”

Gu Wei slapped Yun Liu hard on the face, and Yun Liu fell onto the sofa. She brought a hand to her stinging cheek as she stared at Gu Wei in disbelief. “Mom, you actually hit me!” Yun Liu stated, voice quivering, and tears of grievance dripped from her eyes.

However, Gu Wei turned a blind eye to it. After all, Yun Liu normally acted the cute silly girl before her. She would be coquettish or whine, but she’d never behaved so imperiously or arrogantly to her. In addition, Yun Zhang had often brainwashed Gu Wei, saying that she, as a mother, had let down her biological daughter, Yun Nan, by always taking Yun Liu’s side even when Yun Liu was bullying her. Therefore, Gu Wei had already accumulated quite the disappointment in Yun Liu in her heart, and Yun Liu’s current actions were the last straw.

“We never taught you to behave like this! We, the Yun family, have never been lax in our care for you! You, of all people, have no right to say that our family have done wrong by you! You have no call to shout and yell here! We raised you for more than twenty years and we’ve never asked for repayment!”

Gu Wei went on, venting her entire anger on Yun Liu, “We were the ones who brought you out of the Gu family when you were spurned and bullied there! My son sacrificed his reputation, declaring you two are romantically involved, to help you smooth things over, and you still feel that you were wronged?”

“Yun Zhang! Show some manly spirit and control your own wife! Don’t let her be an embarrassment to the family!” With that, Gu Wei turned around and headed upstairs.

Smiling, Yun Zhang stood up and raised his voice to say, “Don’t worry, Mom. I’ll definitely have everything well-handled, and I’ll work hard to make you proud so you can hold your head high amongst the other madams and ladies!” His words were like magic to Gu Wei; they instantly made her feel better and had her in a good mood.

Yun Liu looked at Yun Zhang in horror. “You did that on purpose, didn’t you? You purposefully mentioned Yun Nan to make Mom angry, and then let her vent her anger on me, didn’t you?”

Yun Zhang sat back on the sofa, not sparing Yun Liu even a side-glance, and said lightly, “You’re overthinking things. I’m not you, so don’t judge me by your standards. You were the one who insisted on coming home to see Mom, I’m just accompanying you. Aren’t you the best at coaxing Mom? This is the first time I’ve seen you make her angry.”

Yun Liu was both furious and depressed at that. Yun Zhang crossed his legs, clasped his hands together and put them on his knees. He gazed at Yun Liu calmly as he said, “Don’t do useless things, and enjoy the benefits that your status brings you. After all, fame is fame, good or bad. Your life-story has become a legend, you know, and all the dramas and movies you’ve acted in are being re-released. They’ve got quite high hits, too. Isn’t this what you’ve been hoping for the most?”

“Next, we’ll show our faces in public occasionally, be a little romantic and intimate, and give the paparazzi some material to work with. You’ll get a lot of exposure that way. There’s nothing bad about that; in fact, it’ll only do you good.”

Yun Liu’s heart was filled with fear as she asked tremulously, “And then what? What’s next? What do you plan to do after that?”

“Next?” Yun Zhang smiled. “What do you mean?”

Yun Liu bit her lip and tried to calm herself down, but tears fell down her cheeks in spite of herself. “I mean, where are we going with our ‘relationship’ in the future?” she reiterated. “Are we—are we going to get married, for real?”

Yun Zhang’s smile was unchanged as he replied, “Our future? Why don’t we leave the future alone until it comes. After all, things change; you never know what can happen. We never expected we would be where we are today in the past, did we?”

“Don’t think so far ahead. Let’s take things one step at a time. So far, you’ve got the fame you wanted, and I’ll be getting the benefits and profit I want, too. We both get what we want; what’s so bad about that?”
