The Ye family members happened to be returning to the Capital with her.
Along the way, several of them had pulled out all the stops to persuade her to come home and stay, but Yunyi had not agreed.
Now, as the train was about to arrive at the station, Xia Dongxue spoke up again, "Yiyi, are you really not considering staying at our home for a few days?"
Yunyi shook her head. "No. When I left, I rented out the guest room in my house. They help clean the yard, so it’s very convenient for me to stay there."
Seeing the disappointment in their eyes, she added, "Don’t worry. As soon as I finish my work with the production team, I will visit your home. Since I’ve said I’ll acknowledge our kinship, I naturally won’t break my promise."
With Yunyi’s assurance, they finally breathed a sigh of relief.
The train slowly pulled into the platform, and everyone got up to retrieve their luggage and prepare to disembark.
Ye Wenhui said to Yunyi, "Little Sister, let the others disembark first. We can go after them. There’s no rush."
Yunyi nodded in agreement.
She could feel the strong sibling affection these two brothers had for her, so she didn’t resist getting closer to them.
After leaving the station, a car from the production team arrived to pick her up.
Yunyi said goodbye to them. "I’ll call you in advance before I visit. I’ll head off first."
Xia Dongxue found it hard to part. She had just been reunited with her daughter, and they hadn’t spent much time together before they had to separate again.
They waited until the car from the production team had left before heading across the street to take the bus.
Xia Dongxue sighed. "Deep down, she still resents us, doesn’t she?"
Ye Bingyu held her hand. "We can’t rush this. It has to be a gradual process. I believe one day she will accept us."
When Yunyi returned to the Capital, she hadn’t notified the Wei Family in advance. After all, when she left, she had covered everything in the house with bedsheets. Just wiping the dust off the floor would do.
She also wanted to see if Wei Ai’s elder brother and the others had taken good care of the house.
First, she accompanied the production team members back to their workplace to familiarize herself with the location, so she wouldn’t get lost later.
Gui Kairong also had his own reasons. Yunyi was such a promising talent, and he wanted to help her build connections. He truly admired Yunyi’s acting skills.
Zhang Xueyan also learned from her uncle that the production team was returning to the Capital. When she found out Yunyi would be returning with them to shoot promotional posters, her eyes glinted with calculation. ᴛhis chapter is ᴜpdated by 𝗇𝗈𝗏𝖾𝗅✦𝖿𝗂𝗋𝖾✦𝗇𝖾𝗍
When Yunyi arrived home with her luggage, the courtyard gate was open.
She pushed the gate open and saw a woman sweeping the yard.
The woman turned to look at her. "Who are you looking for?"
Yunyi smiled and pulled her scarf down a little. "Sister Lanlan, I’m Chuyunyi."
Cheng Lanlan, the Wei Family’s eldest daughter-in-law, was a bit surprised to hear it was Yunyi but quickly recovered. "Are you back on business, or are you staying for good this time?"
Yunyi smiled. "I’m back to take care of some things. I’ll be leaving again in a few days."
Cheng Lanlan was very enthusiastic. "Oh my, then I’ll quickly boil some water for you. You can clean your room in a bit."
Yunyi thanked her and headed to her room.
Unlocking the door, she found the room layered with dust. However, since Yunyi had covered the bed and cabinets with sheets, there was less to clean.
Cheng Lanlan acted quickly. Just as Yunyi was removing the dust covers, Cheng Lanlan came in with a basin of warm water. "The water is ready."
She set down the water, wrung out a cloth, and was about to start wiping.
Yunyi quickly stopped her. "Sister Lanlan, there isn’t much to do. I can handle it myself."
Cheng Lanlan had intended to help clean. However, she remembered her mother-in-law’s previous words: this room was not to be entered without the owner’s permission. So, she didn’t insist further. "Alright then. If you need more water, just get it from the kitchen. There’s plenty of hot water in the pot."
Yunyi thanked her again. After watching Cheng Lanlan leave, she started to get busy.
