Chapter 1513 “Punishment for a Thief (1)”

“You… what are you doing?” Chai Moon flew into a great fright as she saw the girl charging towards herself. In the momentary lapse of panic, the woman backpedals against the nearest wall without a second thought.
Bai Yan’s aura was simply too strong and oppressive, similar to Di Cang’s, hence the reason why this mortal human would react so strongly. It’s downright suffocating for those unprepared.
“Speak, where is my stuff?”
Stammering in the lip, the pretentious lady nervously answers without any forethought: “In-in my room’s cupboard….”
That’s all Bai Yan needed to hear. In a flash, she disappears from view and onto the second floor of the manor.
This sort of speed amazed Chai Moon and her husband. For one thing, it showed how powerful the lady has become, and secondly, how did she know where the room was?
Before long, Bai Yan returns to the main entrance with a box in hand.
“Sister Bai Yan,” Bai Yi Yi grew elated at the sight of the familiar object, “Did you find everything?”
Despite what she’s holding, Bai Yan did seem all that happy based on how quiet she remained. Indeed, the box in her hand was the very same box she gave Yi Yi before leaving, but the weight didn’t add up. It’s much lighter than she remembered.
Wen Shan saw what’s going on of course. He could tell the box was exactly the stuff left behind by his deceased wife, but what could he say? After all, the inheritance does belong to Bai Yan, which was the excuse he used to forcefully take it off Yi Yi’s hand.
“Yan’er, papa here know you’re angry, but I want to remind you only me and Chai Moon is your family! No matter what, Bai Yi Yi is only an outsider, if you put too much faith in her then you’re bound to pay the price later!”
Those words came down like a waterfall across Yi Yi’s heart. It dampened her elated heart and even hurt it, which could be noticed by how her hands had grasped onto those sleeves in a pained manner.
He’s not wrong, I’m just a outsider like he says…. An outsider adopted by Shifu while no one else wanted me….
“My family eh… When did you get to dictate who my loved ones are?” Bai Yan didn’t want to play along anymore and openly sneered in contempt at her former father, “On this Earth, there is only one family I have, and that is Yi Yi here. Forget this Chai Moon, I don’t even consider you related to me. None of you are important to me!”
Unbeknownst to the group here, there’s something else she didn’t say outwardly.
It’s true in her previous life Wen Shan was her biological father, there’s no question about that. However, she’s no longer of this world anymore, she died several years ago already! That means the only blood related relative she had left in this world was the ones from the other side, and Bai Yi Yi whom she considered her own sister due to the bond they shared!
“Wen Yan!”
Wen Shan was finally outraged by Bai Yan’s attitude to the point he stopped calling her “daughter”. There’s fire burning in those eyes now: “It’s been ten years, even if have any grievances it should be extinguished by now. I know what you are thinking, but if I had gone out that day to save your mother then the Wen Clan might’ve been destroyed as well. It’s not like you don’t know who was backing the other two clans…”
Bai Yan didn’t answer, only darkening in her expression as she went through the contents of the box.
Regardless of how big of a backing those two clans had, they will be destroyed now that I’m back. But before then, I will drag out the force behind them and crush that power first. I will make sure they all pay dearly for what they’ve done!
“My mother left me a set of jewelries, there’s a piece missing. The emerald jade is supposed to be worth millions and a dowry for when I marry. Of course, these are all material things so I can settle it at a later date.” Upon saying this after ignoring the cowardly man’s gaze, Bai Yan instead turns to Chai Moon who appeared visibly guilty: “I want to know what happened to the Dan pills I left behind? Where is the pills I left for Yi Yi?”
