Imperial Commander: His Pretty Wife Is Spoiled Rotten

Chapter 1367 - Good-bye to Liang Xiuqin  



Chapter 1367: Good-bye to Liang Xiuqin

Once she had obtained the divorce papers from Yun Yuanfeng, Yun Xi immediately left the Yun family home for the detention center where Liang Xiuqin was being held. Team Leader A picked her up and also informed her of a request from Yun Ziling to see Yun Xi at the hospital.

“Could you please let her know that I don’t have time to see her,” Yun Xi replied with a nonchalant smirk as Team Leader A pulled their vehicle into the detention center.

The only bond between the two sisters was their blood. Yun Xi and Yun Ziling didn’t share any personal ties. After Yun Ziling’s features had been ruined, there was little use left in her for Yun Xi and therefore no reason for Yun Xi to pay her any attention.

Looking up from the divorce papers she was holding in her hand, Yun Xi casually dropped a question, “Have the guards been briefed about what is going to happen?”

“The Young Commander has informed them.”

Yun Xi nodded, and her eyes took note of the dark clouds that surrounded the building. A heavy storm was on its way.

As winter crept into Jingdu, the daily temperatures had been dropping, but the first snow of the year seemed to be coming later than previous years. What had taken its place was this humid, cold weather that brought people’s moods down.

Liang Xiuqin was wearing only a washed-out gray sweater to withstand the cold. She was also wearing a bright orange jumpsuit that all the inmates were given. Her long curls had been trimmed to a short bob, and the lack of proper rest had ruined her complexion. She looked as if she had aged ten years.

At first glance, anyone would think this was a middle-aged woman from the countryside who had lived through a hard life of poverty. She looked nothing like the arrogant wife of a director in the city.

Yun Xi watched through the metal bars as the guard brought in this woman with them. She was cuffed and escorted by two guards at her sides.

Liang Xiuqin from her past life was brought to the forefront of her mind. That woman had been so loud and full of grandeur. She had been nothing like the frail, pathetic woman stumbling toward her.

She felt little to no sympathy or pity for the woman in front of her. Yun Xi watched her mother as if she was watching a random beggar on the street.

Stunned that Yun Xi would be the person who had decided to visit her, Liang Xiuiqin rushed toward the bars between them and spat out her words in a burst of emotion, “What happened to our promise, you wretched…”

The guards in the room immediately pressed Liang Xiuqin down and pinned her to a chair. “Sit down! Watch your words!” They barked at her.

Liang Xiuqin had been through a rough time in the detention center. She had fought against them at the start, but the hard times and harsh treatments had instilled some humility in her.

Once the guards had left the visiting room, Yun Xi finally made eye contact with her mother. Her cold eyes scanned the desperate state she was in, and Yun Xi could not hide the merriness in her heart.

“I said I would help, but it was your bad luck that you were caught at the scene. There was nothing I could do.”

“Really? You can fake it to others, but you can’t fake it to me. What happened was too coincidental. You were involved. You set me up.”

She had had all the time in the world behind bars to think and ponder about the event. The more she thought, the more she was sure about what had happened. She was certain that Yun Xi had had a hand in what had happened to her.

The detention center was far from the city, but there were many reporters and journalists still at the scene. It was obvious that they had come with the purpose of speaking to Liang Xiuqin.

Yun Xi shrugged. “I did! Do you think I would be so foolish as to let you use Yun Yuanfeng’s weakness and bring more harm to the Yun family?” Yun Xi continued with a carefree smile, “If I had let you out, you would have sold me out and let Yun Yuanfeng come after me. I’m not as stupid as you are.”

Yun Xi’s confession immediately struck a nerve with Liang Xiuqin. Her body reeled in shock as she took a moment to process the words she had just heard. The instant they had been internalized, Liang Xiuqin lost her composure and launched into an attack.
