Chapter 17: Yu Wan’s Objection
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Yu Yao had not expected to receive the support of Yu Hong and the three Yu brothers so easily.
Even though she still held a grudge against them in her heart, at this moment, she was not stingy with showing them a smile and sincerely expressed her gratitude: “Thank you for supporting my decision, and thank you for being willing to take the risk.”

At this moment, the three Yu brothers felt that everything they had done was worth it. Even if it was just for Yu Yao’s happiness at this moment, they would still help her overcome all obstacles and achieve her goal!

But people’s joys and sorrows were not always harmonious.
Unlike the three brothers of the Yu family, Yu Wan felt that this decision was ridiculous!
What was wrong with the Yu family? What was the benefit of destroying that mental hospital to them? Those mental patients would not be grateful to them at all. Instead, they hated the Yu family, as they were investors.
The public would not let them off either. They would not believe that the Yu family had sent those people from the mental hospital to prison out of their good conscience. They would only think that the interests of both parties no longer aligned and that the Yu family was taking revenge on the hospital.
And those media outlets would frantically dig up dirt on the Yus and spare no effort in defaming them, thus affecting the development of the family business.

Were they not worried that things would develop to an irreversible stage?
“Father, Brother…” Seeing that they were about to settle the matter, Yu Wan could not hold it in anymore.
“I don’t understand why you’ve made such a decision! There are indeed many dark and sinful things happening in the mental hospital, but those victims are just some mental patients. Their families don’t care about their lives, so why should we take the risk for them? This won’t benefit us at all, right?”
For a moment, no one could react. The three Yu brothers had memories from their past lives, and they were mentally prepared for Yu Wan’s selfishness.
However, Yu Hong was different from his sons. He would never have thought that Yu Wan would say something like that. How could the daughter who had always acted so cute and obedient since she was young have such a cold side to her?

Yu Wan seemed to understand from everyone’s silence that she had said something wrong. However, she did not understand what she had done and could only change the topic in a panic.
“Elder Sister Yaoyao, I know that you’ve been through some unpleasant things in the mental hospital, and I support you taking revenge on them, but we don’t have to use such an extreme method, do we?”
In her previous life, when she read the original novel, Yu Yao had known that she and Yu Wan did not see eye to eye, but this was also the first time she had truly witnessed the ugliness of her nature.
“Oh?” Yu Yao looked at Yu Wan with interest. “How do you think we should take revenge?”
“Uh…”
Yu Wan froze. What method did she have? She had never thought of taking revenge on her own uncle!
However, she had no choice but to say incoherently, “We can cut off their funding. As long as they don’t have the support of the Yu family’s funds, the mental hospital can’t be run anymore. Wouldn’t that achieve the goal of revenge?”
“Ha, I could never have dreamed up such an awful plan.” Yu Yao sneered. “How did you get into a top university with your IQ? You should really thank the college entrance examination policy of City B.”
“You!”
In front of the family, Yu Wan would never take the initiative to quarrel with Yu Yao. Even if her intelligence was being mocked, she could not show her anger. She could only look at her brothers with aggrievance.
“Dad, Brother, I just want to help my sister. Even if she doesn’t like my idea, she shouldn’t talk to me like that.”

However, the Yu family did not comfort her as Yu Wan had expected. They could not comfort a person who only cared about their own interests and ignored the lives of others.
However, Yu Wan didn’t know that her father and brothers’ opinions of her had changed drastically. She only thought that the reason they weren’t comforting her like before was because of Yu Yao’s existence.
Yu Wan did not understand why the word ‘blood relation’ beat the time she had spent with them—time spanning over more than ten years.

Originally, Yu Wan had only hated Yu Yao, who wanted to take everything away from her, but from this moment on, she developed a trace of hatred towards Yu Hong, Yu Lang, Yu Heng, and Yu Jue too.

Of course, Yu Yao did not care about Yu Wan’s feelings and would not let go of the chance to mock her. “Why are you acting coquettishly? Can’t you see that they won’t answer you? Do you want them to go against their consciences and say that your idea is good and not stupid at all? Wouldn’t that be too difficult for them?”
“Sister, how can you say that about me?” Yu Wan looked pitiful. “I’ve never held a deep grudge against anyone since I was young. How could I think of a way to take revenge in such a short time?”

“Is that so?” Yu Yao smiled coldly and said faintly, “I thought you had a close relationship with the director of the mental hospital and couldn’t bear to send him to prison.”
