The Atypical Young Lady Has Returned

If he still could not tell that Yun’er’s recent abnormality had something to do with his eldest daughter, then he would be too stupid.

Moreover, this elder daughter could still maintain a faint smile when facing her biological mother’s nasty attitude. That wasn’t possible for an ordinary person, right?

He had watched Yun’er grow up, so he knew best what kind of personality she had. For unimportant people, even if Yun’er would show kindness to them in order to maintain a good image, she would never treat them seriously.

However, even Yun’er was biased towards her so he didn’t believe that his elder daughter only relied on Master Nine, who was engaged to her and treated her differently.

It seemed like he could not treat her with the same attitude as before no matter if it was because she still had her memories from when she was young, or because she was not as simple as they thought.

“Since you’re back, come over and have a seat. I don’t think you’ve had dinner at this time. You can return to your room after you eat your dinner.”

Yan Jinyu looked at him, and the smile on her face deepened.

She did not respond and simply looked at him.

“Since you don’t want to go to school, then don’t go. If you want to go to school at any time, I’ll arrange a school for you. If you don’t like No. 13 High School, I’ll arrange another school for you. Yun’er is right. Our Yan Family still has some connections so we can even send you to Boyu High School. Previously, we considered your foundation and thought for a long time before deciding on No. 13 High School for you.”

“Forget it. No matter how poor my daughter’s foundation is, she should still go to the best school. If you want to go to school, tell Daddy. Daddy will arrange it for you. With Yun’er in Boyu, Yun’er can also take care of you if you go to Boyu.”

“Qingyu! How could she go to Boyu…”

“Shut up!” Before Fu Ya could finish speaking, Yan Qingyu interrupted her.

“Don’t take your mother’s words to heart. You and Yun’er are both her daughters. Even if she’s a little biased toward Yun’er, it’s not that she really doesn’t care about you. It’s just that you’ve grown up outside all these years, so your mother doesn’t know how to treat you at the moment. It’s inevitable that she doesn’t know her limits when she speaks to you. After we get to know each other better, she won’t be like this anymore.”

After saying that, he glared at Fu Ya as if he wanted her to agree with him.

However, Fu Ya really disliked Yan Jinyu too much. Even if it was Yan Qingyu’s warning, she pretended not to see it. She snorted coldly and turned her face away.

Yan Qingyu’s eyes darkened.

Fu Ya was really getting more and more brainless as she got older.

Looking at Yan Jinyu, Yan Qingyu tried his best to use a kind and dignified expression, “If you don’t want to sit here and wait, go back to your room and rest for a while. Daddy will get someone to call you when dinner is ready. Also, you can think about going to school.”

“There’s no need to.” Yan Jinyu finished the packet of yogurt in her hand. She threw it backward and the packet of yogurt fell accurately into the trash can not far behind her.

This scene not only shocked the servants and Fu Ya. Even Yan Qingyu was shocked.

This was not the first time she had thrown the yogurt pack into the trash can so accurately but she had always thrown it forward previously. Now, she was throwing it backward. She could still throw it so accurately even without turning her head.

Did she have eyes on the back of her head?

Of course not.

Was it a coincidence?

It was possible, but Yan Qingyu’s intuition told him otherwise.

Yan Jinyu didn’t care how shocked they were. She held her phone and spun it in her hand, “There’s no need to stay here for dinner. After you’re done, get someone to send it to my room. As for school, there’s no need for it.”

When Yan Qingyu heard that, he almost couldn’t maintain the goodwill that he tried hard to force the words out. “Why not? Even if you’re the Yan Family’s daughter, even if Master Nine treats you differently, it’s impossible for you to marry into the Yin Family with your junior high education!”

Obviously, Yan Qingyu had decided to let Yan Jinyu fulfill the engagement with the Yin Family.

“That’s not what you should be concerned about, Dad.”

“Speaking of which, if Dad had been so concerned about my school when I just returned to the Yan Family, I might have considered it. But now, there’s no need for that.”

She was actually a very rational person. There were some things that she would not accept even if they were not given to her, even if they were the care and concern from her biological parents.

She hadn’t returned to North City because of the Yan Family. However, since she didn’t object when Yin Jiujin sent her back to the Yan Family on the first day of her return, it meant that she wanted to make a trip back to the Yan Family.

Offering incense to the two elders was only one of the reasons.

As for the other reason…

Even though she had always been unwilling to admit it, she still had some expectations for her family and kinship deep in her heart.

Hence, she still chose to stay in the Yan Family after offering incense to the two elders.

She had been living in the Yan Family for some time now so she was already clear about the attitude the Yan Family had towards her. Or rather, she was already clear about the attitude her parents had towards her.

She already knew their attitude towards her, but she still chose to stay in the Yan Family because she still had something to confirm.

And that was Yan Jinyun’s attitude towards her.

Today, she was certain about it.

Since that was the case, she would stop right here.

As for the rest of them, she didn’t care for those things that they didn’t want to give to her in the beginning and were trying to give it to her ulterior motives now.

Actually, sometimes, kinship was just like friendship—quality was more important than quantity.

“You… Are you blaming us?” For some reason, Yan Qingyu felt a little panicked.

It wasn’t nervousness. It wasn’t panic. It was hysterical.

It was much more serious than the previous two.

Hysterical meant there was a hint of fear within the panic.

Yan Jinyu chuckled, “Dad, you’re thinking too much. I don’t blame you. In fact, you don’t owe me anything. It’s just that you gave birth to me but you don’t love me. I don’t lack your love either. I just want to remind you that since you didn’t care about me in the past, don’t bother about me in the future. However, to prevent Yun’er from letting her imagination run wild again, I still need to stay in the Yan Family for a period of time before Brother Nine returns to North City. In order for everyone to be safe during this period of time, Dad and Mom should know what to do, right?”

“W-What do you mean?!” Fu Ya’s emotions weren’t as complicated as Yan Qingyu’s. She only felt that Yan Jinyu was her daughter. She could ignore Yan Jinyu, but Yan Jinyu couldn’t take the initiative to reject them.

Therefore, she was angry after she heard Yan Jinyu’s words.

“Mom, why are you asking the obvious?”

“I’ve already said everything that needs to be said. If Mom and Dad think that I’ve used the Yan Family’s money to eat and use the Yan Family’s money while I’m staying at the Yan Family, I’ll get Brother Nine to pay for my living expenses in the Yan Family when he returns to North City.”

“Y-y-you…” Fu Ya could not utter a complete sentence for a long time. Or rather, she did not know what to say.

Looking into Yan Jinyu’s smiling eyes and hearing her say such words in such a casual tone, even someone as selfish as Fu Ya felt extremely uncomfortable.

Fu Ya was used to being selfish and had never felt such emotions but she did not realize it at that moment.

Yan Qingyu stared at her blankly for a long time before saying, “W-What are you saying?!”

Yan Jinyu shrugged, “Since you don’t treat me as your daughter, I won’t take advantage of you either. Is this so hard to understand?”

“D-does the Yan Family lack the money to support you?!” Yan Qingyu only felt that this sentence sounded familiar after he finished shouting. He suddenly recalled that Yan Jinyun had also said this before, and he had mixed feelings for a moment.

“Of course, the Yan Family doesn’t lack this bit of money. It’s that I don’t want to take advantage of you. If Dad feels uncomfortable taking Master Nine’s money, I still have some savings on hand. When Brother Nine left, he said that he would return to North City in two months. In that case, I will only stay for two months in the Yan Family. Two months of living expenses. 10 thousand may not be enough but surely 20 thousand should be enough, right?”

Yan Qingyu moved his lips. For a long time, he could only stare at her in a daze.

Yan Jinyu smiled. “Since I’ve already made it clear, I’ll go back to my room now.” She glanced at the housekeeper, Zhao Ling, who wanted to disappear on the spot. “The kitchen will prepare dinner for me later, I’ll have to trouble Zhao Ling to send it over for me.”

“M-Miss, you’re being too polite. That is my job.” She felt extremely regretful. Why was she standing here?

If she had not been standing here, she would not have witnessed such a shocking scene.

Eldest Missy really was…

Even someone like Madam was speechless and had a complicated expression. It was obvious how hurtful her words were.

She wondered if it was hurtful to Sir and Madam or Eldest Missy.

Even as an outsider, when she saw Missy smiling and saying these words in an indifferent manner, she felt extremely stifled.

Yan Jinyu began to walk away but suddenly stopped after taking two steps. She turned back and glanced at the servants and the two people sitting on the sofa before saying, “Oh right, don’t let Yun’er know about what I said just now. Otherwise, she might hide away and feel sad alone.”

The servants were speechless.

“…” Yan Qingyu and Fu Ya. She seemed to really care about Yun’er.

The two of them were silent as they watched her leave.
