Return To The Past: I Won't Choose Humility This Time! - Chapter 166
Chapter 166: Voluntary
“Little sister, you are really impatient. I didn’t say that kowtowing can be done on behalf of others. Why did you kowtow first?”
Yun Xi sneered and expressed her opinion. Yun Xi looked down at Yun Lian like she was playing a game all along.
After all, Yun Lian did it voluntarily, and Yun Xi did not force her. Moreover, Yun Xi also did not say that the kowtow could be done by others.
Yun Lian looked at Yun Xi’s expression and gritted her teeth in hatred. However, she was helpless.
“However, since my sister has already kowtowed so many times, as her elder sister, I should at least be more considerate towards her. How about this – the kowtows you have done can be used for one person. You can replace it with…”
Yun Xi intentionally spoke with a heavy tone. However, her gaze was fixed on Yun Gang.
Yun Gang looked as if he had put down a huge rock. However, when he heard the other two words that came out of Yun Xi’s mouth, his expression changed.
“Yun Lang.”
Yun Xi’s gaze shifted and once again looked at Yun Lian.
“After all, we still have to love and protect children. As an elder sister, you shouldn’t have any objections if you kowtow on behalf of your younger brother.”
Although these words were meant for Yun Lian, in reality, it was directed towards Yun Gang.
“Uncle, look at everyone kowtowing. It’s not good that you are not participating, right? Don’t tell me you’re going to send aunt and sister to see the authorities just because you’re unwilling?”
Yun Xi made her ground clear and hinted that Yun Gang had to consider his family. She made it difficult for Yun Gang to back down.
“What are you guys doing here? How can a child like you make an elder kneel down and kowtow to you?”
A trembling figure appeared in front of everyone. It was the old lady.
The old lady had heard ninety percent of what had happened outside in her own room. Seeing that her favorite eldest son was about to be embarrassed, she had to quickly come out and protect her favorite son.

Yun Xi saw the old lady leaning on her crutches and let out a cold laugh. This old lady had really displayed favoritism to the extreme.
When Yun Gang’s family had fought with Yun Shan’s family, the old lady had turned a blind eye to it and pretended to see nothing.
Now, all Yun Xi wanted was for Yun Gang to kneel on the ground and kowtow a few times. He would not lose a piece of meat, nor would he lose anything. Yet, the old lady could not sit still any longer and walked out of her room to stop this from happening. It really felt like only Yun Gang was her biological child, and Yun Shan was someone she had picked up.
“Yun Xi, stop fooling around. This matter has already alarmed grandmother.” Yun Shan also hurriedly stopped her. He still had that foolish and loyal look on his face. It seemed that the nature of humans was like this. It really was not something that could be easily changed in a few days.
“What if I say no?” Yun Xi looked at Yun Shan, then the old lady. She did not want to back down in the slightest.
A trace of anger flashed through the old lady’s eyes, but when she saw Yun Gang and her youngest son standing beside her, she restrained these emotions.
“You’re really getting more and more outrageous! That’s your eldest uncle, how can you ask him to kneel down and apologize to you. What will people say about us if it gets out? Do you not even care about your eldest uncle’s reputation?” The old lady had raised her voice.
“Oh, grandmother, what logic is there in this world? The eldest brother can hit his younger brother, but the younger brother can’t accept the eldest brother kowtowing to him?”
Yun Xi’s words were indirectly condemning the old lady’s way of doing things.
When the old lady heard Yun Xi mention this matter, she knew that she had been set up by Yun Xi.
However, this was her own home, and she was an elder. As a child, especially a girl, Yun Xi should listen to her.
“Stop fooling around. Let’s end this matter here.” The old lady began to speak harshly.
“If I say no, what can you do?” Yun Xi was also a stubborn one.
“Yun Xi, how can you disobey grandmother?” Yun Shan also hurriedly reprimanded her. Even if the old lady was not close to him, Yun Shan respected his mother the most in this family. Even Yun Gang and Yun Lin were not as respectful towards her.

“It’s because I’m here.” Zhou Lin slowly opened his mouth, and everyone was stunned.
