Chapter 346 - A Peaceful Dinner
Chapter 346: A Peaceful Dinner
Yan Qingyu undoubtedly felt uncomfortable when he heard her words. He suddenly thought of something and frowned, “Jinyu, did you cause Yun’er to be hospitalized?”
“The fact that you said these words means that you’re protecting Yun’er. But since you’re protecting her, why did you push her downstairs?”
“That’s right. I was indeed the one who caused Yun’er to be hospitalized. I was also the one who pushed her.”
Only Yin Jiujin sensed that the young lady beside him froze when she heard Yan Qingyu’s words.
His eyes darkened.
His cold gaze swept over, undoubtedly shocking Yan Qingyu.
Instantly, his back was covered in cold sweat.
Fu Ya didn’t even dare to breathe loudly under Yin Jiujin’s cold gaze. She hid behind Yan Qingyu.
“So what if I’m protecting Yun’er? Who said that I have to accommodate her every time even if I protect her? She said something I don’t like to hear, so I naturally have to use my actions to warn her.”
“She’s an heiress who grew up under the pampering of her parents. She enjoys the best life and gets the best education. How could she understand the hardship of a person like me? I’m not cut out for studying, but she came to criticize my results. She felt that I had embarrassed the Yan Family. Of course, I would be angry.”
“I have a very bad temper. Once I’m angry, I won’t give anyone face. Naturally, I have to warn her so that she won’t cross the line again.”
“However, I really regret it now. I regret using such a direct method to warn Yun’er. Even her parents, who doted on her since she was young, had abandoned her. How pitiful must she be when I’m so ruthless to her!”
“Now it seems like I’m actually luckier than her.”
“It’s more pitiful to lose it than never having it.”
“As long as you have a conscience, you won’t be so ruthless. She’s after all the daughter you’ve doted on since she was young. How can you just give up like that? Aren’t you afraid that no one will send you off after you die?”
After saying that, Yan Jinyu held Yin Jiujin’s hand and walked past the two of them.
Yan Qingyu and Fu Ya were left stunned on the spot.
Yan Qingyu, in particular, seemed to have aged by a few years.
He would die without anyone to send him off…
These words were indeed ruthless.
However, he knew it was the truth.
Now, his two daughters had completely left him.
After that, perhaps because Yan Jinyu’s words were too shocking, even Fu Ya didn’t make a fuss when she went to Yan Jinyun’s ward to visit her.
However, they didn’t stay for long because Yan Jinyun’s attitude towards them was also very cold.
Yan Qingyu and Fu Ya were silent when they left the hospital.
After returning to the Yan Family, Yan Qingyu returned to the old residence and ignored Fu Ya. As for Fu Ya, she sat in the empty living room with only one word echoing in her mind: retribution.

In the car, Yin Jiujin drove personally and looked at Yan Jinyu, who was sitting in the front passenger seat. “Are you still angry about what happened just now?”
“No, I just can’t figure it out. Forget about me. Yun’er was pampered by them since she was young. Could it be that in their eyes, the benefits are greater than everything? How can people be so selfish?”
“There are so many people in the world. There are always some people who are incomprehensible.” For example, his biological mother.
He had never seen a biological mother who was afraid of her own son like her.
It was understandable that she was afraid of him if he had once been ruthless or harmed her. However, he did nothing. He killed someone in public that time to save the passers-by and to save her.
He rubbed the top of her head. “Since your mood will be affected, just contact them less in the future. You don’t have to be bothered by them.”
“I know. I’m just…”
“Forget it. We don’t have a deep relationship anyway. Let’s leave it at that.”
“Yes, you’ll have me in the future.” After saying that, Yin Jiujin looked at her and added seriously, “I’m enough for you.”
Yan Jinyu’s frustration dissipated instantly.
She rolled her eyes at him. “Yes, yes, yes. You’re enough.” This possessiveness was vividly displayed regardless of the occasion.
Yin Jiujin pinched her cheek and chuckled before retracting his hand.
It was a good sign that he could divert her attention so easily.
The two of them headed to the restaurant.
It was almost lunchtime.
Huo Xuan wasn’t there when the two of them arrived.
Huo Xuan only came after waiting in the private room for about half an hour.
With Huo Siyu.
He must have picked Huo Siyu up.
“Beauty Yu.” Huo Siyu stuck her head out from behind Huo Xuan and waved the thing in her hand. “I saw this on the way and bought it for you. It’s your favorite flavor.”
Yogurt.
Yan Jinyu wasn’t very particular about yogurt when she drank it in the past, but the three people who knew her well enough knew which flavor she preferred. Just like how she never took the initiative to order food when she ate, they also knew what she liked to eat.
Yan Jinyu smiled and took it. “Thank you.”
“Actually, Beauty Yu, I bought it for you because you’re finally willing to follow the doctor’s instructions and no longer drink without limit. You have to continue to maintain the good habit of drinking yogurt at your current level, understand?”
“Why are you controlling me?”
“I’m not controlling about you. I’m just passing on Brother Feng’s words. Otherwise, you’ll have to drink the medicine again.”
Yan Jinyu fell silent at the mention of drinking medicine.
Huo Xuan saw their interaction and his gaze landed on the yogurt in Yan Jinyu’s hand.
So she liked yogurt. No wonder Rainy asked him to stop the car when he passed by the small store. He thought Rainy wanted it.
Yin Jiujin naturally sensed Huo Xuan’s actions and felt a little stifled. If Huo Xuan hadn’t appeared in time to help, he really wouldn’t have wanted him to meet the young lady.
Look, he didn’t even know how to hide her gaze now. He dared to openly covet his woman in front of him.
“Young Master Huo, Miss Huo, please sit.” His voice was a little cold.
Huo Xuan glanced at him and walked over to sit down.
Putting everything else aside, as an old rival in the business world, it was really rare to see Yin Jiujin, who was clearly very unhappy but still had to endure it.
Yin Jiujin had always done as he pleased. He definitely wouldn’t tolerate anyone or anything that made him unhappy.
However, Eldest Miss Yan was an exception.
It was no wonder that someone as indifferent and unreasonable as Yin Jiujin was so concerned about a girl that even Huo Xuan was attracted to.
“Thank you for your help last night, Young Master Huo. Let me toast to you.” Yin Jiujin raised his glass.
Huo Xuan smiled sinisterly and raised his glass, “Second Young Master Yin, you’re welcome.”
Yin Jiujin was really constantly declaring his rights.
This gratitude undoubtedly saw them as a whole and separated him away from them.
It wasn’t like he didn’t know that. Did he have to remind him repeatedly? Indeed, no matter what, he didn’t like Yin Jiujin.
“It’s nothing. Eldest Miss Yan, you don’t have to take it to heart.” He said seriously.
“Compared to Eldest Miss Yan’s care for my sister all these years, what I’ve done is insignificant.”
“I’ve long wanted to find an opportunity to thank Eldest Miss Yan, but I’ve never found an opportunity. Hence, I’ll take this opportunity to thank Eldest Miss Yan seriously.”
“Let me toast to Eldest Miss Yan.”
Huo Siyu’s eyes welled up.
Yan Jinyu glanced at her and also raised her glass at Huo Xuan, “Brother Nine drank, so I won’t drink anymore. I have to drive when we go back. I’ll use tea as a drink.”
“Young Master Huo, you don’t have to thank me. Little Rain and I are family. Besides, I didn’t take care of Little Rain. They were the ones who took care of me.”
“No, I wouldn’t have survived until now without Beauty Yu,” Huo Siyu interrupted her.
“Beauty Yu, don’t be humble. You’ve saved my life countless times. Besides, without you, I’m afraid I won’t be able to escape from Ghost Slaughter Island’s control for the rest of my life.”
“We’re indeed taking care of you on small matters, but in big matters, when has it not been Beauty Yu who was at the forefront? Weren’t Sister Fengling, Brother Feng and I all saved by you?”
“Beauty Yu, really. I think I’m especially lucky. God is very fair to me. That’s why I met you in that kind of man-eating place.”
“What are you talking about? You’re suddenly so emotional.” Yan Jinyu chuckled.
They were lucky to have met her, but wasn’t she lucky to have met them too?
“How old are you already? Why are you still crying?”
Then, the emotions that Huo Siyu had painstakingly built up dissipated.
“I’m not crying!” Her eyes were a little teary, that was all.
Tears were the most useless thing. She had not cried for a long time.
“Also, Beauty Yu, don’t forget that you’re a year younger than me. Don’t always act like you’re older than me. I’m the older sister.”
Yan Jinyu didn’t say anything and just smiled at her.
Huo Siyu was terrified.
Alright, she was too smug.
She coughed dryly. “Back to the topic. Beauty Yu, tell me in detail what happened last night.”
“Someone I don’t know. He’s wearing a mask and I can’t see his face. His marksmanship is very good. He’s an expert.”
“Fortunately, Young Master Huo appeared in time. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have been able to dodge all the bullets in the narrow corridor and face Lind Jones and that person at the same time.”
Huo Siyu was shocked.
“In other words, the head of the Jones Family is indeed hiding in Boyu High School waiting for you to appear? Is he really related to Ghost Slaughter?”
“Obviously.”
“Then, who’s Jones? I’m referring to his identity in school.”
“My form teacher.”
What?
“I really didn’t expect that.” This was completely unexpected by Huo Siyu, and Yin Jiujin even more so.
If he had known earlier, he wouldn’t have let the school specially arrange for the young lady to be in the same class as her sister.
“I didn’t expect it either. He disguised himself very well. If he hadn’t lost his composure at the beginning and exposed himself on the first day I reported, I probably wouldn’t have realized it.”
“Other than that, there are also some problems with Yuan Xi from the Yuan Family in South City, Bo Lang from the Bo Family in Water City, and Tan Shiyun from the Tan Family in Water City.”
“However, based on my observation, Tan Shiyun shouldn’t be as simple as the daughter of the small Tan Family.”
“The three of them didn’t help Jones kill me in the end. Instead, they switched sides at the last minute. Otherwise, it would have been even more troublesome last night.”
“I’ll investigate these people properly. They might become helpers.” Although she didn’t need help that much, she had a good impression of Tan Shiyun. It was fine to leave them as helpers.
“I’ll go investigate,” Huo Siyu said.
“There’s no need to. The other party will come looking for us.”
Since Yan Jinyu had already said so, Huo Siyu naturally wouldn’t say anything else.
“Do you need my help?” Huo Xuan asked.
Only then did he know that the person who was looking for trouble with Yan Jinyu was the head of the Jones Family.
Old Jones had died at Yan Jinyu’s hands. He knew it after knowing Yan Jinyu’s identity.
Yin Jiujin looked at him. “We don’t have to trouble Young Master Huo.”
Huo Xuan didn’t insist. “Forget it. If you need my help, just tell me.” It was unknown if this was directed at Yan Jinyu or Yin Jiujin.
“However, let’s separate private matters and public matters. Second Young Master Yin, please be careful. I’ll return the favor after I fell so badly in your hands last time.”
Yin Jiujin raised his glass at him. “Anytime.” He was a little arrogant and looked like he didn’t care about Huo Xuan.
Huo Xuan also raised his glass at him with a strong presence.
Yan Jinyu and Huo Siyu looked at each other.
Neither of them spoke.
They would not interfere in the business world.
“By the way, did Young Master Huo’s health improve after seeing Feng and letting him treat you?”
Huo Xuan didn’t expect her to suddenly care about him and was slightly stunned.
Then, he smiled. “I’m much better. Thank you for your concern, Eldest Miss Yan.”
Yin Jiujin was angry.
Under the table, he squeezed Yan Jinyu’s hand.
Yan Jinyu sighed helplessly. Alright, he was jealous again.
Whether it was for Huo Xuan’s help last night or for Little Rain, it was only right for her to ask.
She held his hand to comfort him.
“That’s good.”
The meal was rather harmonious.
After dinner, Huo Xuan returned to South City and Huo Siyu returned to the capital.
Yan Jinyu and Yin Jiujin returned to Mount Jing.
Yin Jiujin didn’t go to the company. He didn’t forget that Yan Jinyu still had minor injuries. She had to go back and recuperate.
The next day, Yan Jinyu went to school as usual.
