Chapter 31 Do I Look Like an Idiot?

Seeing that Yunyi had made up her mind, Auntie Wei asked her daughter in a low voice, "Did you get the money back?" Wei Hongyan quickly opened the military satchel she was carrying and took out the money, "It’s all here." Auntie Wei took the money and went into the back room, then came back out, "Yunyi, since you’ve made up your mind, I won’t beat around the bush. Here’s eight hundred, count it." The Wei Family was straightforward in their dealings, and Yunyi didn’t play coy. She counted the money in front of the Wei Family, "Exactly right. Let’s go and complete the procedures now." Wei Hongyan was relieved to see things go smoothly, but the thought of Yunyi leaving for the village tomorrow left a bittersweet feeling in her heart, "Yunyi, thank you." Yunyi gestured with the money in her hand, "Fair trade, no thanks needed." Yunyi, wanting to avoid attracting the attention of the other neighbors in the large courtyard, said, "Uncle Wei, Auntie Wei, Hongyan, I’ll go home first to put away the money. Let’s meet at the alleyway entrance in a bit." The Wei Family naturally understood Yunyi’s intentions, "Alright." Yunyi left the large courtyard and put the money from her bag into her space. She didn’t go home, but instead headed straight for the entrance of the alley. The handover procedures went very smoothly, but as soon as Wei Hongyan had finished the formalities, Sun Xiaoyan, who was supposed to cover for her, no longer had a position to fill. Not wanting to cause gossip, Yunyi went to the dispensary to find Sun Xiaoyan herself. The afternoon shift wasn’t too busy. When Sun Xiaoyan saw it was Yunyi, she got up, mentioned something to a colleague, and prepared to take Yunyi outside to talk. Yunyi, not wanting to draw a crowd, nodded in agreement. Sun Xiaoyan pulled Yunyi to a corner outside the hospital, "Yunyi, are you here because of my Third Brother’s matter?" A smile played at the corner of Yunyi’s mouth as she mockingly thought: I wasted so much time and effort to get him in there; why would I bother to rescue him? You really overthink things. Yunyi didn’t answer her question directly, saying, "I came to tell you that I’ve passed my job on to someone else. Human Resources should notify you pretty soon." Sun Xiaoyan didn’t understand, "What do you mean?" Yunyi said with a smile, "I’m going to the village tomorrow; who knows when I’ll be back. It’s pointless to hold on to the job, so I gave it to someone else." Now Sun Xiaoyan understood and became anxious, "Chuyunyi, how could you do this?" Yunyi shrugged, "It’s my job, and I’ll do what I want with it. What’s with all the shouting?" Sun Xiaoyan was almost frantic, "If you pass your job to someone else, what am I supposed to do?" Watching her lose control, Yunyi couldn’t help but laugh, "What you do is none of my concern." Sun Xiaoyan’s eyes widened in disbelief, "Aren’t you afraid my Third Brother will find out?" She was flustered. She didn’t dare say that her Third Brother and Chuyunyi weren’t a real couple. After all, with what had happened to him, Chuyunyi surely knew the truth by now. Chuyunyi looked at her, half-smiling, "Your Third Brother? You dare bring him up in front of me? The Sun Family really has nerve." Seeing Yunyi’s expression, Sun Xiaoyan panicked, "Yunyi, listen to me. My Third Brother was set up by Su Aiyu, you mustn’t believe it." Yunyi’s smile vanished, "You know very well what the Sun Family is up to. Do I look like a fool to you?" After saying that, she pushed past her and walked on, "Don’t come after me again. The consequences won’t be what you want to see." Sun Xiaoyan’s face turned pale, and she murmured, "How could this happen, how could this happen." Although the theft at home was reported to the police, the police found nothing, and the conclusion was that it was likely an inside job.
