Forced her into demonic possession: There will be no more gods in the world!

Chapter 162 I'm Not Pretending Anymore

Recently, Yun Juan has been quietly resting and recuperating in her quiet little courtyard.

However, on this very day, an unexpected person appeared—Aunt Lan, who was by her mother's side, rushed in with a hurried expression and flustered steps!

Aunt Lan looked extremely anxious, panting heavily as she shouted, "Miss...Miss, something terrible has happened! Madam...Madam...she's been forcibly taken away by the Old Madam's people!"

As she spoke, she paced anxiously in circles, like an ant on a hot pan.

At this moment, Aunt Lan knew in her heart that the only person who could possibly save the lady from her predicament was the young lady who had just returned to the manor.

Moreover, the lady deliberately left me behind when she was taken away, presumably hoping that I could come and inform the young lady as soon as possible.

Upon hearing this news, Yun Quan's heart tightened, but she quickly calmed down.

She knew perfectly well that this was no accident, and that there must be some unknown reason behind it.

So she quickly followed up with, "Then, when Mother was taken away, did those old women say anything special?"

Aunt Lan composed herself and tried hard to recall the scene.

After a moment's thought, she seemed to recall some important details and quickly said, "Oh, right, Miss! I remember that Granny Jin, who serves the Old Madam, seemed to say something like 'The visitor is ill-intentioned'! But... Miss, what exactly does that mean? Who exactly is the ill-intentioned visitor?"

After saying that, Aunt Lan began pacing back and forth anxiously again.

In fact, if it weren't for the lady's repeated instructions before her departure, warning Aunt Lan not to act rashly,

Otherwise, given her current anxious state, she would probably have already rushed to Grand Tutor Wei's residence to seek help.

The current situation is truly thorny, and it seems there is no other way but to place all our hopes on our young lady, hoping that she can come up with a brilliant plan to break the deadlock.

"Are they up to no good?" Yun Juan murmured to herself, repeatedly pondering the profound meaning contained in those four words.

Suddenly, as if she had just remembered something important, she was startled.

Just yesterday, the Crown Prince was punished for something, and that boy Yun Ting has always been very close to the Crown Prince, so he will probably not be spared this time either and will definitely be implicated.

However, who could be the one with ill intentions at this moment?

Could it really be related to the Crown Prince's punishment?

But upon closer reflection, something didn't seem quite right. After all, her mother was just a woman who lived a secluded life in the inner quarters. How could this matter be related to her?

Countless questions swirled and intertwined in Yun Juan's mind, leaving her unable to make sense of them for the time being.

After careful consideration, Yun Juan finally made up her mind to go to the old lady's courtyard in person to find out what was going on and to find out what the current situation was.

So she turned to Aunt Lan beside her and said, “Aunt Lan, please don’t be anxious. I plan to go to the old lady’s courtyard to find out what’s going on and then make a decision when I get back! As for you and Qingmiao, you can stay in my courtyard for now and help dry the books! This way, you’ll have something to do and won’t be too worried, and you won’t have to run around with me.”

After saying that, Yun Juan walked quickly toward the old lady's courtyard without hesitation.

He thought to himself: No matter what difficulties and obstacles we encounter, we can just deal with them as they come and adapt to the situation. As the saying goes, when soldiers come, we will block them; when water comes, we will dam it!

Wei Wan was roughly dragged by several servants to the courtyard where the old lady lived.

At this moment, sunlight filters through the lush foliage, casting dappled shadows and creating a serene and peaceful scene. However, this tranquility stands in stark contrast to what is about to happen.

The old lady was sitting peacefully on the couch, resting with her eyes slightly closed, seemingly enjoying this moment of tranquility.

However, behind him stood a mysterious woman wearing a veil, carefully attending to him.

Just then, a soft footstep sound came from behind. The old lady slowly opened her eyes and her gaze fell on Wei Wan, who had just stepped into the courtyard.

With just that one glance, the old lady's originally peaceful expression instantly turned gloomy, as if she was filled with inexplicable hostility towards the person in front of her.

Meanwhile, Yun Ting, who had been by Wei Wan's side all these years and shared many years of life's joys and sorrows with her, chose to stand by and watch coldly at this moment.

He stood quietly to the side, like an outsider, showing no intention of speaking up for his wife in the face of the injustice she had suffered.

Faced with this situation, Wei Wan was slightly taken aback at first, and then a faint smile appeared on her lips.

This smile was completely different from the gentle image she usually presented to everyone; instead, it carried a touch of the allure that Yun Juan possessed.

This sudden change gave Wei Wan an unprecedented allure, and even Yun Ting, who had lived with her for a long time, had never seen her so charming and captivating.

For a moment, Yun Ting was stunned, completely forgetting everything around him.

Wei Wan met the old lady's hostile gaze without flinching, raising her head high and demanding, "Kneel down? Ha, this is the first time in my life I've heard such an absurd and unreasonable request! You want me to kneel? What makes you think you can? Just because you have a big face?"

Wei Wan finally understood how disgusting these people were and decided not to try to reason with them anymore. Just like her daughter often told her, "If you keep tolerating them and they keep pushing their luck, you should just crush them! Otherwise, even if you forgive them in the end, they will still take advantage of you and keep pushing you!"

Wei Wan now fully understands this sentence. She used to think that since they were husband and wife, it would be okay to keep to ourselves and not interfere with each other.

So she stayed out of the courtyard during this time to avoid seeing them, so that both sides could be at peace.

But they still come to hang around me, and even take advantage of me!

So what? Fine, I'll stop pretending now, okay?

"You...you...you..." The old lady was speechless after being rebuked, and could only point at Wei Wan, saying "you, you, yours."

"If you can't speak, then don't! I'm being lenient with you because you're older, but you're just trying to make yourself look good?" Wei Wan fiddled with her hair and pushed aside Yun Ting, who was blocking her way.

He sat down directly in the chair, ignoring whether they offered him a seat.

Wei Wan: Sigh... No wonder my daughter likes to talk back like this, it's so satisfying! She doesn't have to worry about what others think or follow those stupid rules, nodding and bowing!

I can sit wherever I want, and I don't have to give face to anyone! How carefree!
