Chapter 1059: Face-off

Standing by the side of the pool, Liang Xinyi could see that Yun Xi did not dare get any closer to the swimming pool.. Her reaction only confirmed her guess.

It seemed that after Liang Xinyi had pushed Yun Xi into a pond and she had almost drowned when she was a child, she still didn’t dare to approach water. It seemed an instinctive fear of death followed her.

It just so happened that it was very convenient for her to use this tactic.

She had already taken care of the surveillance equipment here. Most of the guests were on the second floor, and everyone was focused on the banquet room on the second floor. No one was paying attention to this place.

If Yun Xi died here, no one would know that it was she who had done it.

When Yun Xi was dead, everything would become as she wanted. Liang Xinyi did not have to look at her unpleasant face any longer or fall victim to her ploys. This way, she would not get her self-esteem crushed all the time.

“Yun Xi, you probably didn’t know that you were wearing two bracelets when you were sent to the countryside, am I right? One was a silver bracelet that you kept the last time after it was used to frame you. The other is still with my mother, and it is a pure gold bracelet. I showed it to Han Zhongteng some time ago. You probably know that the Han family is involved in the real estate industry and the antique industry. He said that this gold bracelet is an antique, and the pureness of the gold in antiques is far more valuable than any gold on the market.”

Yun Xi narrowed her eyes slightly. She really did not know that there had been two bracelets. Even in her past life, she had only seen one. She had never seen the one in Liang Xinyi’s hands.

Moreover, she did not have many memories of when she was a child, and she had never investigated the story of the bracelet. Gold bracelets were indeed worth more than silver bracelets. It was not surprising that Chen Lixue had helped herself to it.

She stared at Liang Xinyi carefully for a moment, and she did not look like she was lying.

Liang Xinyi sneered when she saw her sullen face and how quiet she had become. “You also know the kind of person your mother is, the selfish type. She wouldn’t possibly have given it to you knowing that it was an antique, let alone give away precious bracelets to a child who was to be abandoned in the countryside. She gave Yun Ziling all the good things, and it will never be your turn. Don’t you think it’s strange that the antique bracelet had fallen into your hands?”

Yun Xi nodded and stood up. “What’s so strange about that? Maybe it was given to me by my grandfather. Don’t you know that in Jingdu, every eldest grandson and granddaughter have the right to inherit their family position? Have I not come back to inherit the Yun family now?”

“That’s right, but what if this is a token of the inheritance of the Yun family? It’s currently in my hands. Don’t you want it back?”

When Liang Xinyi saw her standing up, she knew that what she had said had had its effect.

“Of course I do. Tell me your terms!”

“Yun Xi, you must show your sincerity if you want something. Do you want to beg me for a favor when you are standing so far away from me? Do you think I am so easygoing?”

Yun Xi sneered to herself and raised her foot to step forward. How could she still not understand Liang Xinyi’s motives? Now she would give her a chance!

Stepping forward, she stood less than a yard in front of Liang Xinyi and raised her eyebrows to look at her, and then she glanced at the pool beside her, pretending to be a little scared.

Liang Xinyi was satisfied to see her fearful expression and raised her chin triumphantly, enjoying the pleasure of tormenting her.

“Now tell me your terms. Do you want to sell it or what?”

It was rare that Liang Xinyi had something she could negotiate with with Yun Xi, so she naturally had to adopt an air of superiority. Otherwise, her self-esteem that had been crushed by Yun Xi so many times before would not feel validated.

“Even if you want to sell such an antique, I have to let someone estimate its value, right?”

“How difficult it must be for you to be so shameless. It was originally my possession, but you are using it to negotiate terms with me.”

“It is in my hands now, so what I intend to do with it is my business.”

Yun Xi did not want to bother to talk nonsense with her. “Since we can’t agree, then forget it.”
