Chapter 159 - 098 Destiny too tough, heaven won’t take_6
With these thoughts, Yun Ya opened the suitcase she had brought with her, which contained only a few clothes and some simple toiletries. She took a towel, pajamas, and her toiletries and went into the bathroom.
Soon, the sound of the shower spraying water came from inside.
The door quietly opened a crack, and Ah Huan peeked in the direction of the bathroom before she carefully walked in. She rummaged through Yun Ya’s bag, stuffed the wallet into her pocket, and prepared to leave—then, glancing at the cellphone on the coffee table, she thought for a moment and grabbed it as well.
After all, this was what the lady herself had asked her to do; she wasn’t a thief.
Yun Ya, drying her hair, emerged from the bathroom and noticed her disturbed bag and the missing cellphone on the coffee table, her red lips curving into a slight smile.
Some people just wouldn’t learn their lesson until they saw their own coffin.
Leisurely, she hung all her clothes in the wardrobe, applied cream to her face, and used a wooden comb to smooth her disheveled, damp hair. Looking at her delicate features in the mirror, she quirked an eyebrow subtly.
Her eyes sparkled with charm, radiant as she glanced around.
Getting up, she walked towards the door.
Study Room—
Yun Shu flipped through a white lady’s wallet, which held over a hundred dollars in small change, a few bank cards, but nothing else. The bank cards weren’t domestic, especially the black one.
Yun Shu frowned, "Isn’t this a Golden Peony Card?"
Yun Shen glanced at it, his pupils suddenly shrinking. He reached for it, his fingers caressing the lower right corner, and said with a heavy voice, "Yes, it is."
Yun Shu exclaimed, "How does this girl have it?"
The Golden Peony Card was valuable in itself and symbolized a certain power and wealth, especially as it was created in honor of Country Hua, making it a significant and highly desirable collectible domestically. Yet, it was so rare that it was said there were none in circulation within the country.
Yun Shu hadn’t expected to find it in Ji Yunya’s wallet, being used as a regular bank card. What on earth had this girl been up to all these years?
Yun Shu felt she shouldn’t underestimate Ji Yunya. The one who slipped through the net was the most dangerous, especially after giving her ten years to grow. Now that she had returned of her own volition, clearly she had come prepared. In an instant, Yun Shu’s heart sank.
Yun Shen unlocked the phone—no password. A slide of his finger and the screen lit up. It was the latest iPhone Plus 7, the wallpaper showing her and a boy in a joint selfie, sitting on a swing with Yun Ya’s head resting on the boy’s shoulder, and blinding sunlight in the background, but their smiles outshone the sun.
The boy had delicate features and clear eyes and bore a seven-to-eight resemblance to Yun Ya...
Yun Shen’s fingers abruptly tensed.
Yun Shu glanced at it and couldn’t help but smirk coldly, "Indeed, we underestimated her. Yun Miao was definitely taken away by her, but... "
She narrowed her eyes, "A mere five-year-old girl at the time, how could she have the incredible ability to take Yun Miao away right under our noses, and even deal with the assassin we sent." She couldn’t figure it out.
Suddenly, she looked up at Yun Shen, who just so happened to do the same.
They understood each other without a word.
"Heh, if someone wasn’t helping her from behind, how could she have possibly escaped the assassin’s pursuit? And that person..."
Yun Shen’s thin lips uttered coldly, "Qin Zhuan."
Yun Shu was all too familiar with him, and couldn’t help scoffing, "So she got involved with him, her mother’s old lover; mother and daughter taking care of the same old man, Qin Zhuan’s not short on luck..." Yun Shu’s lips curled in a venomous smile.
Yun Shen frowned subconsciously but held back whatever he wanted to say.
Yun Shu glanced at him, "The Qin Zhuan who was driven from the Ji Family was your doing, wasn’t it?"
Yun Shen pursed his lips, silent.
Yun Shu laughed, "Well done. Ji Lanyi, that flirtatious woman, hasn’t dared to command you around after that. You have to use such methods to handle her."
Yun Shen looked down at the phone. The contact list was clean, and so was the messaging app; clearly, everything had been wiped. Just then, the screen suddenly went black, and a skull popped up, its sinister laughter sounding like a heart attack waiting to happen.
"Is it fun to snoop through someone else’s phone?" The skull’s mouth opened and closed as a sinister male voice came from inside, startling Yun Shen so much he almost threw the phone away.
Then, blood began to flow down the screen, nearly covering it completely, looking terrifying.
"Snoop—Death—To—All—Family," it declared.
"Oh, hahaha...."
The voice was shrill and sinister, like a demonic screech, chilling to the core, enough to make one’s scalp tingle and knees go weak.
