Chapter 45 - Provocation
“Why?” Yan Jinyun caught up with Yan Jinyu on the way out of the Yan Family’s main building.
Yan Jinyu slowed down and looked at her, “What why?”
“Why don’t you go to school? If you only have a junior high school’s certificate, you’ll suffer greatly in the future. I’ve seen that lady from the Yin Family a few times from afar. She’s not an easy person to get along with. There’s no need for you to let her find fault with you over such a small matter.”

“Are you worried about me?”
“Who’s worried about you! Don’t flatter yourself!” As she spoke, she stomped her feet twice and quickly walked past Yan Jinyu.
Looking at her back, Yan Jinyu was silent for a moment before asking, “Don’t you always get the chauffeur to send you? Is someone picking you up today?”
Yan Jinyun turned her head and said impatiently, “No one is coming to pick me up. Isn’t there someone coming to pick you up? Can’t I just hitch a ride?”
“It’s fine with me. It’s not my car anyway.”
Feng Yuan’s car stopped outside the Yan Family’s main gate. Yan Jinyun went out first, opened the back door, and sat in.

Seeing that it was Yan Jinyun, the smile on Feng Yuan’s face collapsed, “Yan Jinyun, why are you sitting in my car? Has your Yan Family gone bankrupt? You don’t even have a car to send you out?”
“I’ll do as I please! Who told you to park your car in front of my house?”
“What’s wrong with you! I parked by the side, okay? I’m blocking the way?”
Yan Jinyun snorted coldly and kept quiet.
When Feng Yuan saw this, he said angrily, “If you want a ride, just ask. Only you, Yan Jinyun, would speak so arrogantly. Nobody else is as thick-skinned as you!”
“Where’s Jinyu?”
After asking, Feng Yuan saw Yan Jinyu walking over. The smile on his face reappeared, “Jinyu, quickly get in the car. Today, Cousin will bring you out to play.”
“Bring her to play. Where are we going? To see the race organized by Luo Yikun?” Luo Yikun, the younger cousin of Luo Yilin, the eldest son of the Luo Family, was several months older than Feng Yuan.
Yan Jinyun wasn’t asking because she was worried about Yan Jinyu. She knew that with Yan Jinyu’s ability, she definitely wouldn’t be afraid of such an occasion. She simply wanted to know where Feng Yuan planned to go.
“No, that kind of occasion isn’t suitable for Jinyu.” For such a beautiful and obedient girl like Jinyu to appear on such an occasion, even if she wasn’t led astray, she would still be targeted by those rich young masters who only knew how to eat, drink, and play. When that time came, there would definitely be trouble.
Especially today, Jinyu was dressed in a white t-shirt, cropped jeans, canvas shoes, and high ponytail. She looked clean and beautiful. As a rich young master, although Feng Yuan didn’t like to play as much as others, he knew that she was going to attract a lot of attention.
The person in the front passenger seat said unhappily, “You’re not going to Luo Yikun’s event anymore?”
Yan Jinyu opened the car door and got in. She happened to hear that sentence.
It was Feng Yuan’s girlfriend, Xu Xiaoxiao.
“I already said that I wouldn’t be going to Luo Yikun’s event today when I left the house. If you want to go, you shouldn’t have specially asked Xu Gui to send you to my door to come with me. You should go directly with him.”
“This… I thought you were joking. Who knew that you really didn’t want to go.”
“Why would I joke about this? It’s not like I’m sick. If you really want to go, get out of the car later when you reach a place where it’s easy to get a taxi. I came here to keep Jinyu company today so it’s not convenient for you to be around.”
“I’m your girlfriend. Why can’t I be around?!”
“I’m bringing my cousins out to play. Of course, it’s not convenient for you to be around. This is how I treat my girlfriend. If you don’t like it, we can break up now.”

When Xu Xiaoxiao heard that, her tone softened instantly, “I’m sorry, Brother Yuan. That’s not what I meant. I don’t really want to go to Luo Yikun’s event either. Anyway, such racing events are often seen. It’s fine if there’s one less time. I’m your girlfriend. Your cousin is naturally my cousin too. I’ll go with you.”
“Our Yan Family doesn’t have any relatives with the surname Xu. Miss Xu, please don’t call me and Sister, cousin.” Yan Jinyun had never liked Xu Xiaoxiao. However, if it was in the past, Yan Jinyun wouldn’t have spoken so disrespectfully. She behaved like this because of what happened two days ago.
Two days ago, Xu Xiaoxiao had looked for her privately in school. It was for no other reason than to get her to cooperate with her to deal with Yan Jinyu. Yan Jinyun didn’t treat her nicely right on the spot.
However, Yan Jinyun didn’t show any signs of siding with Yan Jinyu. From the beginning to the end, she only gave Xu Xiaoxiao the impression that she disdained to be associated with her. Hence, even until now, Xu Xiaoxiao still felt that Yan Jinyun would find an opportunity to plot against Yan Jinyu. Not cooperating with her was only temporary. As long as the timing was right, they could still find an opportunity to work together.
This was already the second time Feng Yuan had tried to break up with her because of Yan Jinyu. Xu Xiaoxiao was even more determined to teach Yan Jinyu a lesson now.

Xu Xiaoxiao was angry but didn’t dare to speak up when Yan Jinyun said that. She didn’t even dare to show her anger. In North City, the Xu Family’s status was far inferior to the Yan Family. She didn’t dare to offend Yan Jinyun.
“Sorry, I didn’t mean anything.”
It was also rare that Feng Yuan didn’t refute Yan Jinyun’s words.
He remained silent.
This made Xu Xiaoxiao even angrier inwardly.
Yan Jinyun ignored her and asked Feng Yuan, “Where are we going?”
“Why? Do you have somewhere else to go? If you do, get out of the car where it’s convenient to get a taxi and go there yourself. I don’t have the time to send you there.”
“I have nowhere else to go.”
Yan Jinyu looked at her and raised her eyebrows.
If she didn’t remember wrongly, Yan Jinyun said that she had an appointment with someone. However, she said that she had no other place to go now.
Yan Jinyun clearly remembered what she said in the dining room earlier so she turned her face away and didn’t look at Yan Jinyu.
Feng Yuan glanced at Yan Jinyun through the rearview mirror but didn’t say anything this time.
“Jinyu, how about we go to the amusement park first? The Feng Family opened the amusement park last year, and it’s now considered the largest among all the amusement parks in North City. There are many projects inside, so we can have a good time.” Feng Yuan had actually thought about stopping at the amusement park first for a long time.
He considered that Yan Jinyu grew up in an orphanage in a small town. A place like a small town definitely didn’t have a large amusement park. Even if there was a small amusement park, Yan Jinyu probably didn’t have the money to go and play. Even if she had money, no one would bring her there.
After some consideration, he decided to bring Yan Jinyu to the amusement park to play first.
He had even consulted his mother, Luo Linlin, for her opinion on this matter. She had agreed with him.
Amusement park?
Yan Jinyu’s thoughts drifted away. In her impression, she had been to the amusement park twice.
The first time was on her second birthday when she met her kidnappers at the amusement park. The second time was when she had a mission a few years ago and ended a target’s life at the amusement park.

No matter what, she had never been able to play at the amusement park properly.
“I’m fine with anything. You guys decide.”
Feng Yuan was happy to hear that, “Alright, let’s go to the amusement park then!”
As soon as he said that, the phone rang. He picked it up by the bluetooth in the car, so everyone in the car could hear it.
“Yuan, can you contact the eldest daughter of the Yan Family?” Other than Yan Jinyu, the other three people in the car could tell that this was Xu Xiaoxiao’s cousin, Xu Gui.
Feng Yuan frowned slightly and turned to look at Yan Jinyu, “Yes, I could, but why?”
“It’s Luo Yikun’s event. I don’t know where he brought a woman from, but she seems to be from the capital. She mentioned that she wanted to meet the eldest Miss Yan by name and even mentioned Master Nine. She’s really bold. She even dares to use Master Nine’s matter as a topic of discussion. From her words, she means that Miss Yan isn’t worthy of Master Nine. She’s really daring. As if whether she’s worthy of Master Nine or not is up to her to decide! That was still alright but she even put on an arrogant attitude and looked down on us from North City. That makes me very unhappy.”
“I think that you seem to care about that cousin of yours? Since that woman wants to provoke us, of course, we can’t be afraid. If you can contact her, bring her over. With Yan Jinyun’s looks, since the eldest Miss Yan is her twin sister, I think she won’t be too bad looking either. When the time comes, we’ll use her looks to crush her! I want to see where the people from the capital get their sense of superiority from to think that they’re superior to others!”
“Okay, I’ll ask her.”
Before Feng Yuan could ask, Yan Jinyu habitually touched the watch on her left wrist with her right hand and said calmly, “Let’s go meet her.”
