The Atypical Young Lady Has Returned

“How can that be?” Yan Qingyu and Fu Ya said in unison.

Yan Jinyun initially thought that it was impossible. In her opinion, even without Yan Ruyu’s 10% shares, the Yan Family would still be hers sooner or later.

It was not because of her identity as the successor, but because she had the confidence to completely control the Yan Family.

However, after seeing Yan Qingyu and Fu Ya’s tacit excitement, she retracted her rejection.

There was hurt and determination in her eyes.

She didn’t say anything but looked at Yan Jinyu.

Others didn’t understand what Yan Jinyun meant, but Yan Jinyu did.

Yan Jinyun was asking her.

Yan Jinyu chuckled and said, “Since it’s Aunt’s token of appreciation, Yun’er will accept it.”

She looked at Yan Ruyu. “However, we can’t let Auntie suffer a loss either. I’ll buy the 10% shares that Auntie gave Yun’er according to the market price and I’ll leave the details to the lawyer. What do you think, Auntie?”

We…

Yan Jinyun pursed her lips in silence.

Yan Ruyu stared at Yan Jinyu without any response.

Yan Jinyu smiled. “Auntie, don’t worry. I can still fork out this bit of money. Even if I can’t, isn’t Brother Nine here? I can borrow it from him too.”

She looked up at Yin Jiujin, who had been staring at her, and asked with a smile, “Brother Nine, you’ll lend me money, right?”

Staring at her smiling face, Yin Jiujin’s eyes flickered slightly as he pinched her fingertips. “I’ll take care of you in the future.”

Yan Jinyu’s expression froze slightly. She didn’t know why, but after hearing his words, her heart seemed to suddenly beat faster.

However, her emotions were quickly controlled by her. She blinked and asked, “Brother Nine, you mean that if I want to use money in the future, I can only ask you for it? It’s not a loan?”

Yin Jiujin couldn’t help but raise his other hand and poke her forehead with his index finger. “Silly.”

Then, he said, “You’re my fiancée. You’ll be my wife in the future. Besides, didn’t you just say yesterday that you wanted to spend the rest of your life with me? Don’t you understand the meaning of a lifetime?”

Yan Jinyu rubbed her forehead in a daze. “I understand. Why don’t I?”

“Then tell me, what does that mean?”

“That means whatever’s yours is mine too. Hehe, Brother Nine, am I right?”

“…it means we don’t have to separate our belongings so distinctively.”

“Isn’t it the same? What’s yours is mine. It’s just that there’s no distinction between us!”

“…” Yin Jiujin. There didn’t seem to be anything wrong with that.

Yan Jinyu chuckled again, looking especially silly. Huo Siyu, who was at the side, couldn’t bear to look at her.

She really wanted to shout, Beauty Yu, are you someone who lacks that bit of money? Wake up!

Yan Jinyu didn’t care if she was smiling foolishly. She only knew that she was very happy now.

There was actually such a person in this world who did not know her background and clearly had doubts about her. Not only did he not check on her or ask her about it, he even indulged her so much.

How could she not be happy?

Because she was happy, she looked at Yan Ruyu again with an even brighter smile than before. “Aunt, you also saw that I don’t lack money, so this matter is settled.”

Yan Ruyu was dazzled by her smile. Then, she sighed, “Since you’ve said so, let’s do as you say.”

It was hard to say now. It would be troublesome if Yu Xiao made a fuss about it when he grew up. She might as well settle the score now.

Even though the possibility of Yu Xiao becoming insensible and harassing her with these shares was very small.

“The Yan Corporation will hold a shareholder’s meeting tomorrow morning. I’ll have to trouble Aunt to come personally,” Yan Jinyun said.

Yan Ruyu looked over. Yan Jinyun didn’t avoid her gaze. She maintained her posture as the top socialite in North City and said without changing her expression, “Yun’er thanks Auntie for the shares.”

It seemed like Yun’er was confident that there were people in the Yan Corporation supporting her.

She was someone who could control the situation. It was better for the Yan Family to be handed to her than to her father. Yan Ruyu nodded in satisfaction.

“You don’t have to thank me. I sold it at an explicit price. Let me know when the meeting is. I’ll be there on time.”

“Alright, thank you Auntie.”

“Yun… Yun’er, what are you doing?!” Fu Ya was the first to shout out in anger. Yan Qingyu was so angry that he couldn’t speak properly. In other words, with Yin Jiujin standing beside Yan Jinyu at such an occasion, the situation would only be worse if he spoke.

“What does Mom think I’m going to do? Speaking of which, I’m the Yan Family’s heir to begin with. The Yan Corporation will be mine sooner or later. What’s the big deal about it being earlier or later? Mom, don’t worry. Even if I become the head of the Yan Family in the future, I’ll still give you your allowance as usual. You can go out to play cards and shop like before.”

“How can it be the same?!” When her husband was in charge, she had always been the wife of the head. When her daughter was in charge, she was considered the mother of the head of the household for the time being. But after her daughter got married?

Could it be that she had to find a live-in son-in-law?!

The daughter she raised was naturally married to an outstanding man. There was no way an outstanding man was willing to become a live-in son-in-law!

Besides, if her husband was forced to abdicate by her biological daughter, she would definitely become a laughing stock in North City!

All the wealthy ladies she knew envied her for having a husband who loved her, a sensible and outstanding daughter, and a harmonious family.

If her daughter fell out with her husband and even became enemies, she would lose a lot of face!

Obviously, Fu Ya had never thought that when she encouraged Yan Jinyun to marry into the Yin Family, Yin Jiujin would never become their live-in son-in-law.

Yan Jinyun hid the emotions in her eyes and said calmly, “How is it different? Does Mom think that I’m an ingrate who won’t care about you after taking over the Yan Corporation?”

“Even if I really inherited the coldness in your bones and don’t care about you, doesn’t my father still have 30% of the Yan Corporation’s shares? The annual dividend is not a small sum. It’s enough for you and my father to retire.”

Yan Jinyun’s words were actually a little spiteful.

She had never thought of seizing power so quickly. After all, she was only 18 years old and had a long life ahead of her.

She did not intend to take her aunt’s 10% shares, but their reaction was so strong, as if she was not their daughter but their enemy. Hence, she did not want to go according to their wishes.

“You! You! You…” Fu Ya almost fainted from anger.

However, she didn’t faint because Yan Jinyu’s words had diverted her attention.

“Since we’ve made things clear, I’ll have to trouble Aunt for the rest. I’ll be leaving first.”

Lin Zimu had already brought her luggage down.

Yan Ruyu was silent. Her throat felt a little choked up again.

After a while, she nodded. “Alright, go ahead.”

She looked at Yin Jiujin. “I’ll have to trouble Master Nine to take care of Yu’er in the future.”

Yin Jiujin glanced at her and nodded. “Yes.”

However, no one felt that his attitude was bad. This was because most of the people present wouldn’t even get a look from Yin Jiujin, let alone a nod and response.

Yin Jiujin held Yan Jinyu’s hand and turned to walk out of the small courtyard. As soon as they turned around, they saw the old man who appeared at the entrance of the small courtyard.

“Miss Yu.” The old man held his walking stick and said with a choked up voice.

Yan Jinyu stopped in her tracks and restrained the emotions in her eyes. She smiled and called out, “Grandpa Xin.”

“Miss Yu, are you… leaving the Yan Family? You only came back after 16 years. Are you leaving after staying for only two months?”

“…Not really. I’ll be staying in North City for a long time. Even if I leave North City in the future, I’ll be able to get through to you on the phone. You won’t be unable to find me like you used to, so you don’t have to worry, Grandpa Xin.”

The old man’s body trembled as he held his walking stick. “Yes, it won’t be like before. That’s good, that’s good…”

Although he was an elder of the Yan Family, he was only a servant after all. He could not take charge of the family’s matters after all.

Therefore, even if he heard about Miss Yu’s situation in the Yan Family these few days, he could only try his best to force himself not to ask about it. He thought that no matter how much Young Master and Young Madam disliked Miss Yu, they were still Miss Yu’s parents after all. At least, they wouldn’t treat Miss Yu too harshly. At least, it was better for Miss Yu to stay in the Yan Family than to suffer outside. Who knew that they…

He had wanted to take advantage of the two young ladies’ coming-of-age ceremony to join in the fun, but instead he had witnessed such a scene.

Young Master had long gone astray. He knew it from the moment Young Master disregarded Old Master and Madam’s wishes to marry this Young Madam.

However, he did not expect Young Master to be so far gone.

Yan Jinyu felt a little stifled, and the smile on her face didn’t look as natural as before.

Yin Jiujin pinched her palm as a form of consolation.

Then, he looked up at Yan Xin, “Little Yu will live with me in Mount Jing in the future. If you want to see her, you can go to Mount Jing to look for her directly.”

To Mount Jing…

This was not a privilege that anyone could receive.

Even Min Ting, who had a good relationship with Yin Jiujin, had only stepped foot into Mount Jing once!

The way everyone looked at the old man instantly changed.

The young people did not know Yan Xin, but the older ones did. However, after so many years, Yan Qingyu had long changed the Yan Family’s head. They thought that Yan Xin, the Yan Family’s former butler, no longer had any status in the Yan Family.

They didn’t expect Master Nine to treat him so politely…

Master Nine’s attitude towards the old man was probably mostly because of Eldest Miss Yan. After the series of events just now, they no longer felt that Eldest Miss Yan was a simple person. Although they couldn’t understand why a person who grew up in a remote orphanage could have such courage, no matter what, they couldn’t deny that they wouldn’t underestimate Eldest Miss Yan anymore.

Moreover, she had Master Nine backing her up.

Since Yan Xin was someone Eldest Miss Yan treated with respect, they naturally didn’t dare to underestimate him.

“You…” Yan Xin looked at Yin Jiujin.” You’re the Yin Family’s Second Young Master, right? “Very few people dared to address Yin Jiujin as “you ” now. Most of them addressed him with honorifics.

This discovery made everyone realize Yan Xin’s importance even more clearly.

Yin Jiujin nodded slightly.

Yan Xin smiled kindly, “I’ve always wanted to thank you in person. Thank you for bringing Miss Yu back.”

“You’re being too polite. Little Yu is my fiancée. It’s what I should do.” He was very glad that he had done that back then. Otherwise, the girl would not be held in his hand like she was now. She would still be in some unknown corner of the world.
