The Atypical Young Lady Has Returned

He had accompanied his parents back to the Yan Family to attend a funeral when his grandmother passed away. He had seen his cousin, Yan Jinyun then. However, he was young at that time and didn’t have much of an impression of her looks. He only vaguely remembered that his mother didn’t seem to like Yan Jinyun very much.

Since her mother did not like her, he naturally did not have many chances to interact with her, let alone have any impression of her.

Now that he saw her, other than feeling that she was beautiful and elegant, he did not find her annoying. Then, why did his mother not like her?

Yu Xiao could not understand.

As for Yan Jinyu, Yu Xiao had even less of an impression of her.

He was fifteen now so he was not even born when Yan Jinyu went missing.

However, Yu Xiao knew that Yan Jinyu existed. Putting aside the fact that it was no secret that the Yan Family in North City had a young mistress who had been missing for many years after she was kidnapped, it was also impossible for him not to know that since the Yan Family and his mother had been looking for Yan Jinyu all these years.

He had been curious about her for a long time.

Now that he has met her…

Well, she was beautiful. That was undebatable.

However, was her temperament slightly worse than Yan Jinyun, her second cousin?

He shook his head. No, she was not worse than Yan Jinyun.

Although she didn’t have Yan Jinyun’s cold aura, her smile was very friendly, and she looked very innocent and easy to bully, Yu Xiao felt that she wasn’t inferior to Yan Jinyun when she stood with her. Not only that, it seemed like when the two of them stood together, the first person that others would notice was Yan Jinyu and not Yan Jinyun!

That surprised Yu Xiao.

How was that possible?

Didn’t they say that his elder cousin grew up in an orphanage in a remote town and dropped out of school without even attending high school? How could she be more conspicuous than her second cousin, the daughter who was meticulously raised by the Yan Family?

Yu Xiao—a 15-year-old teenager—could think of all these, not to mention Yan Ruyu and Yu Wen, who were much more experienced and knowledgeable than him.

However, both of them knew that now was not the time to pursue this matter, so they quickly suppressed their surprise.

Walking closer, Yan Ruyu took off her sunglasses and said excitedly, “Y-Yu’er, it’s really, really you? You’re really back?” Yan Ruyu, who was always calm, instantly had red eyes when she said that.

Yu’er…

Yan Jinyu couldn’t help but clench her fists tightly.

It was this form of address again. In her memory, only her grandparents had called her that. She had not heard this address for many years.

However, Yan Jinyu was still Yan Jinyu after all. Even if her emotions were fluctuating, she quickly controlled them and smiled lightly. “Auntie.”

Yan Ruyu looked at her and then suddenly turned her face away. That tear fell as she did that.

She was probably not used to revealing her emotions in front of others.

Yan Jinyu still saw it, but she pretended not to see it because she wasn’t good at dealing with such situations. It was also because she didn’t want Yan Ruyu to feel awkward.

Yan Jinyu knew that Yan Ruyu had always been a strong career woman.

After wiping her tears, Yan Ruyu turned back. She still couldn’t control her emotions. She stared at Yan Jinyu’s face and moved her lips. “Y-you…”

Yu Wen held her hand comfortingly. “Alright, there are many people here. We’ll talk when we get back.”

He first looked at Yan Jinyun and said with a gentle smile, “It’s been a few years since we last met. Yun’er has already grown so big. Uncle almost didn’t recognize you.”

This action was enough to tell that Yu Wen was a meticulous person. He was afraid that everyone would only notice Yan Jinyu and caused Yan Jinyun to feel neglected and resentful.

Especially for a big family like the Yan Family, because of the inheritance rights, even siblings could not avoid scheming against each other. Sometimes, a simple sentence could avoid a lot of trouble.

However, there was actually no need for Yu Wen to be worried. Yan Jinyun smiled lightly and greeted politely, “Uncle, Aunt.”

It was undeniable that Yan Jinyun felt a little uncomfortable seeing that Yan Ruyu only saw Yan Jinyu ever since she appeared. However, she didn’t feel resentful.

Because she still felt very uncomfortable now when she thought about what Yan Jinyu might have experienced all these years. She felt even more pitiful for Yan Jinyu when she saw Yan Qingyu and Fu Ya’s attitude towards Yan Jinyu.

Seeing that she was smiling sincerely, Yu Wen heaved a sigh of relief. He looked at Yan Jinyu, “You must be Yu’er. I’m your uncle.”

Then, he introduced Yu Xiao, who had walked up to them, “This is your cousin, Yu Xiao. He also came to join in the fun when he saw that your aunt and I had returned to the country. The few of you are not too far apart in age. During this period of time in North City, this brat will be left to you and Yun’er to manage. Your cousin is more mischievous. If he does anything wrong, you and Yun’er can scold and beat him. Just let him live.”

Yu Xiao’s lips twitched. Was it really good to ruin his reputation like this?

He clearly wanted to find a topic to ease the slightly awkward atmosphere, so he still used him as a topic.

Father!

Although he was complaining inwardly, Yu Xiao did not show any disrespect on his face. He greeted politely, “Eldest Cousin, Second Cousin.”

Yan Jinyu smiled and nodded. “Hello.” She looked at Yu Wen. “Hello, Uncle.”

“You must be joking Uncle. I’ve interacted with Cousin a few years ago. My cousin is not mischievous. However, Uncle, you can rest assured that Sister and I will take good care of Cousin during your time in North City.” Yan Jinyun said this because she felt that Yan Jinyu probably wouldn’t acknowledge Yu Wen’s words.

Don’t ask her why she felt that way. She had completely relied on the intuition she had gotten from interacting with Yan Jinyu during this period of time.

However, Yu Wen and Yan Ruyu looked at her in surprise when they heard her words.

Yun’er’s attitude towards Yu’er…

Yan Ruyu’s slightly red eyes became dark and obscure.

Yan Jinyun felt a little uncomfortable as she was staring at her with a probing gaze. Yan Jinyun was already a little nervous when she faced Yan Ruyu initially, and she felt even more nervous now.

For a moment, she didn’t know what to do. In her panic, she subconsciously looked at Yan Jinyu for help.

Yan Jinyu hid a smile in her eyes and looked at her deeply, making her blush from embarrassment. Yan Jinyu then turned her gaze to Yan Ruyu and Yu Wen, “Yun’er is right. We will take good care of our cousin. Uncle, don’t worry.”

Yan Ruyu and Yu Wen were surprised to see the two of them interacting. They looked at each other and restrained their emotions tacitly.

“Your aunt and I will go get the luggage. You guys go wait in the car first,” Yu Wen said.

Yan Jinyun was about to reply when Yan Jinyu said, “Aunt, Uncle, and Cousin must be tired by the journey. Let Yun’er accompany you back first. I still have to wait for someone.”

“Waiting for someone?” Yan Ruyu was surprised. So many people had found out about Yan Jinyu’s past, so she naturally had some information on her. She knew very well that Yan Jinyu didn’t have any close friends all these years. Could it be that she made friends after she returned to North City?

Before Yan Jinyu could reply, she asked, “Who are you waiting for?”

Yu Wen and Yu Xiao were puzzled too.

However, Yan Jinyu looked behind them and smiled brightly, dazzling their eyes.

She said, “The person I was waiting for is here.” There was a hint of surprise in her joy.

She was already surprised, let alone the others.

Yan Jinyu was naturally surprised because she was waiting for one person, but two people came…

Yin Jiujin and Little Rain.

The two of them walked out together.
