    “Yun Nan, that b*tch!’ Yun Liu was so angry that she swept all the bottles and jars on the table to the ground.


    Yun Zhang pushed open the door and entered the room with a dark expression, coldly snarling, “Yun Liu, what did you say?”


    Yun Liu panicked. She hurriedly stood up and said, “Yun Zhang, what brings you here?”


    Yun Zhang wasn’t going to let the matter go. “How could you call Yun Name names like that?! She’s our sister!” Yun Zhang yelled.


    Yun Liu could feel the control over her anger slipping and forced herself to keep her mouth shut. She couldn’t get into any more conflict with Yun Zhang right now.


    “Yun Zhang, I didn’t mean it! I was just angry. I’m really, really angry! Yun Zhang, we treat Yun Nan as our sister, but Yun Nan doesn’t care about us at all! ”


    “Yun Zhang, if Yun Nan had left that movie ‘4:30 P.M.’ with us, we could have used it to turn things around. But now, Yun Nan used it to curry favor with Shi Nian instead. She cares more about consolidating her position in the Shi family than she does our lives! She doesn’t care about us at all!” Yun Liu stated as she handed a magazine to Yun Zhang. Yun Zhang quickly scanned the magazine’s headlines before throwing it on the table, and his dark expression remained unchanged.


    “Yun Zhang, you’re bing more and more biased towards Yun Nan! Why are you angry at me? What have I done wrong? Oh, I get it! You regret letting her leave now that you see how sessful she is, don’t you? You dislike me because I’m not as capable or talented as your biological sister, don’t you?”


    Yun Liu began to cry as she spoke. “I Imow,” she sniffled, “I’m an orphan—I’m an unwanted child—who should be grateful to your family for raising me for so many years—I should repay you all for your kindness—and I should know my ce. I shouldn’t be greedy and hope for my parents’ love or yours…” At this point, she was sobbing so hard she couldn’t speak. ‘Crying and ying the poor orphan card always worked perfectly on Yun Zhang,’ Yun Liu thought.


    Sure enough, Yun Zhang looked a little helpless as he calmed his temper and said, “Do you hear what you’re saying? When have I ever treated you like an unwanted orphan? Name one person in our entire family who doesn’t love you. Don’t you know you’re breaking our hearts when you say such things?”


    Yun Liu gazed at him with a face filled with sorrow, and tears streamed down her cheeks. Yun Zhang’s heart softened at the sight, and he gently muttered, “Yun Liu, stop calling yourself an orphan. You know very well that my parents and I have treated you as one of our own for all these years. Don’t you know how much it upsets us when you say things like that? Think about it. Don’t we treat you better than Yun Nan? Yun Nan is also a member of our family. You don’t have to like her, but you can’t hurt her.”


    Yun Zhang ced the documents he was holding on the table at the side and said in a distraught tone, “Our legal department has been extremely busytely dealing with the demand letters that showered down like winter snow. All because our people are spreading rumors and lies. Yun Liu, what you’ve done has harmed us as well as Yun Nan!”


    “Every single hurtful statement has been documented. We had to publicly apologize. We werepletely disgraced and had to pay all kinds of financialpensation. We’ve already suffered a great loss. Yun Liu, what you’re doing serves no one’s interests. Can you please stop targeting Yun Nan?” Yun Zhang pleaded.


    Yun Liu wiped her tears, looked at Yun Zhang with wet eyes, and uttered aggrievedly, “Yun Zhang, you think I’m targeting Yun Nan? I’m targeting her? What about the way she treated us? I just wanted to get revenge for our family and thepany. What right does she have to me us for thosements online? Yun Zhang, you shouldn’t have paidpensation! Doing so only makes us seem guilty!”


    Yun Zhang was furious at Yun Liu’s unreasonable behavior. “The evidence


    provided by theirwyer is crystal clear; there’s not the slightest chance we could prove otherwise. What other way do we have to settle the matter aside from payingpensation


    He continued, trying earnestly to make Yun Liu see sense. “Yun Liu! Although the Inte isrge andplex, the web isn’t beyond thew! We can’t take any chances; that will only harm ourselves in the end!”


    Yun Liu wailed and threw herself into Yun Zhang’s arms. “Yun Zhang, I’m sorry! It’s all my fault! I’m just—I’m just so frustrated that all of you like Yun


    Nan instead of me. I’m afraid! I’m so afraid that all of you don’t want me! Yun Nan has everything and everyone! She has the whole world, but I only have this one family. I’m nothingpared to her! There’s no way I can win against her! Yun Zhang, I’m so afraid!”


    Yun Zhang’s heartpletely softened. When his parents had brought Yun Liu into their home, she had tiptoed around trying to please everyone. She was afraid they wouldn’t like her and would send her back to the orphanage. It took her several years to slowly ovee her trepidations. However, Yun Nan’s return aroused Yun Liu’s fears once again. Even though she had grown up, she was still afraid of losing them; she was still the sad and lonely little girl from back then..
