Chapter 317 - What The Hell Is This Brat Saying?

Throughout that day, Yang Zi refused to taste the slightest thing as water. Everyone was so afraid that she might harm her health if she went on like this but with her state of mind, nothing they said to her worked. It was as if she had shut the door to her heart.

The next day which was Mrs Yang's burial, Shui Shui and the others had expected Zhao Liying and her friends to show up just to mock Yang Zi, but to their greatest surprise none of them showed up at the burial.

If not that, Yang Zi held herself back she would strangle her Aunt to death when she talked about taking Yang Mi along with her in the funeral hall.

At the funeral, many people came, both her mum's business partners, close friends and friends she hadn't met since her mother adopted her. Best Enterprise employees did not fail to come to pay Mrs Yang her last respect.

Grandpa Li came too, and so did Li Chen. All Li Chen did in the burial was to stay at his best buddy side. Although he wasn't conversant with how to comfort a person, he still tried his best to make sure that the sad Yang Mi did not cry so much.

From the beginning of the burial to the end, nobody saw Yang Zi shed a drop of tear and this scared her friends who knew just how much she cried the previous day.

After the burial, Shui Shui and Shiyi followed Yang Zi to their main Mansion so they could keep her company.

For three days, Yang Zi did not eat anything or say a word to anyone. From the way she acted, everyone could tell how traumatised Mrs Yang's death left the poor Yang Zi. Her beloved mother's death still felt like a nightmare to her even though it had been a week since she died.

That late afternoon, Shui Shui and Shiyi had left the mansion to get Yang Zi her favourite chocolate cake since she didn't seem to have any appetite. A few minutes after they left three cars entered the mansion. Two elderly men and a middle-aged woman emerged from each of those cars. Even when the guards tried to prevent them from entering the mansion, they still forced their way into the sitting room.

Yang Zi sitting on a couch in the sitting room raised her head when she heard footsteps.

Seeing who the intruders were, she just sat there not uttering a word.

"She did not even greet us, what kind of a lady is she that she can't greet her elders?" Yang Zi heard her Auntie wearing a green flair dress say in a low tone to the two men.

The three people then began talking. Despite their many words said, none of them entered Yang Zi's ears. The only word that caught Yang Zi's attention was when they mentioned them sharing Yang's property. As if that was not enough, they mentioned getting the custody of Yang Mi. The manner in which they argued about who will take the little girl was as if the girl was some commodity they could distribute.

"I dare you to say that again," these were the first words Yang Zi uttered during the past three days.

"Is that how you were taught to treat your elders?" The lady berated, giving Yang Zi a piercing glare.

"That isn't what you said earlier so, repeat those exact words you said," Yang Zi ordered fiercely.

"Look at her, she doesn't have any manner. Just look at the manner she glared at us like she is gonna murder us," her first uncle wearing a grey suit said in annoyance.

"Murdering you for what you have just said is not a bad idea after all," Yang Zi said emotionlessly to the dismay of her relatives. They all exchanged secret glances when they heard Yang Zi's words.

"Anyway why bother exchanging words with a girl who will soon be thrown out on the streets," the lady said, glaring daggers at Yang Zi.

"You are right about that. The insolent girl is just gonna make our blood pressure rise so let's just leave her to her fantasy. She thinks this is the time that her adoptive mother was alive. I wonder why that once homeless Chungling adopted such a brat as....,"

"Don't you dare as much as mention my mum's name with those filthy mouths of yours? For these past days, I have really respected all of you but, I just realised that I have been wasting my respect on people who don't deserve it," Yang Zi said seriously.

"In fact, you should thank my mum whom you have just insulted because if she hadn't shown me your pictures and told me that you are my dad's relative. I would have had all of you locked in the police station for those utterances you all made earlier," Yang Zi stated sternly.

"Let me make myself clear. My little sister is going nowhere. Any one of you who dares as much as try to get close to her, not to mention taking her with you will have to answer to me," Yang Zi stated fiercely.

"Look at this mannerless girl talking. Who is your sister? Has spending about nine years here made you forget where you come from? How dare you try to drag the custody of our brother's little daughter with us?" Her second uncle wearing a blue suit said in anger.

"Yeah, I am adopted so, what is wrong with that? At least I am far better than those who call themselves her blood relatives but just treat her like a mere commodity," Yang Zi said bluntly.

"None of you deserves to get Mi Er's custody so just get out and one more thing, if you think that you can get your hands on my dad and mum's properties just by taking Mi Er along with you, then you are very wrong," Yang Zi said, standing up from the couch she was sitting.

"What the hell is this brat saying?" Her Auntie whispered to the two men.
