Chapter 10
What else could she do? She didn’t say anything and only smiled at them. Then, she asked the housekeeper to carry the other box of yogurt for her and lead the way.
However, before she could finish her sentence, the three people standing there already had an inexplicably weird feeling. It felt like she would do something to them that they would regret greatly if they really touched her yogurt.
But was that even possible?
Even if she had some brains and wasn’t as timid as they thought, she was just a little girl who didn’t have anything to rely on before she turned 18. Even if Master Nine treated her differently, there was no way Master Nine would always stay by her side, right?
In the future, she would have to listen to them no matter what she did. So, what could she do to them?
With this thought in mind, the three of them forgot about that strange feeling.
“Sister, don’t worry. No one in the family likes to drink yogurt. No one will touch it.” There was a gentle smile on her face, but Yan Jinyun was very disdainful.
Yogurt? Only a country girl who had never seen the world would treat that kind of thing as a treasure. Before this, there had never been such an unpresentable thing in the family.
Yan Jinyu’s gaze landed on Yan Jinyun’s face. She smiled. “That will be for the best.”
As long as they didn’t touch her things, she didn’t care what they thought. Of course, she wasn’t going to care what their sudden change of attitude was about.
Yan Jinyu had just been led away by a servant to the small villa behind the main building that was reserved for guest rooms when the Yan family’s expressions changed again.
“Let’s go to the study.”
Fu Ya and Yan Jinyun looked at each other before following Yan Qingyu upstairs.
As for what they were saying in the study room, Yan Jinyu didn’t know or care.
The servant led her to her room.
It was a small villa behind the main building and her room was on the third floor.
Although it was a room randomly converted from the guest room, the Yan family’s guest room was not too bad. There was a bedroom, a study, and a bathroom. The bed sheets and bedding were all new. Yan Jinyu was quite satisfied.
“Missy, we’ve arrived.”
“Yes, you can leave after putting down the things. I like to be alone. Don’t disturb me if there’s nothing.”
The servants were looking down on her. Although Sir, Madam and the elder… no, she was now the Second Young Mistress. Although they had a change in attitude towards this young mistress, it did not change the fact that this young mistress had only graduated from junior high school and had grown up in an orphanage in a remote town.
Such a young mistress was not even as educated as the servants, so what was she trying to show off for? She even liked to be quiet. Did she really think she was the real young mistress of the Yan Family? She was quite good at putting up a show.
Yan Jinyu saw that she was standing there, and there seemed to be disdain towards her in her expression. Her hand unconsciously caressed the silver “watch” on her left wrist, and her beautiful eyes narrowed slightly. “Yes? Did you not hear what I said?”
The servant was stunned when she saw her smiling eyes. “I-I’ve heard you. I’ve put the yogurt in the room for Missy. There’s a phone in the room. If Missy has any instructions, just press the button 1 and call for help. Missy, please rest early. I’ll go get busy now.”
With that, she turned around and ran away. She cursed silently after she ran from the third floor to the first floor and out of the small villa.
She was just a little girl who grew up in the countryside. How could she be frightened by her gaze? That gaze was clearly nothing. It was just a pure and innocent look that a little girl should have when looking at others. Why did she suddenly feel afraid?
Since she couldn’t figure it out, she’d better get out of here. It was too creepy.
Yan Jinyu knew very well that she had scared the servant away on purpose.
She was not a patient person. There were some things that she did not like to say a second time. She would not do anything to those people from the Yan Family for the sake of the two elders. However, she did not owe the Yan Family’s servants anything.
She did not plan to live a life where even the servants dared to humiliate in the Yan Family. Ever since she became famous in that battle when she was ten years old, no one dared to ride on her head anymore. Even the ruthless man who had nurtured her became rather fearful of her.
However, it was also right for that ruthless man to be afraid of her. After all, in the fifth year after she became famous—which was three years ago—she had already destroyed his base and blown him to pieces.
She had been brought to the Ghost Slaughter Island when she was two years old. For eight years, she had been trained as a killer and suffered all kinds of tortures that were worse than death. How could she not bear grudges? However, on the account that her abilities were due to that man’s contributions, she originally did not intend to take his life. However, since he actually wanted to kill her, then he could not blame her for killing him instead.
As she was thinking, the “watch” on her wrist suddenly made two beeping sounds. Yan Jinyu raised her wrist and pressed on a certain part of the watch. A female voice came from it, “Beauty Yu, are you in North City now?”
Even though they were separated by electronic devices, the woman’s voice still carried a hint of charm. Along with her voice, there were also some background noises. One could tell that she was currently in a messy environment, such as an extravagant and noisy bar.
“Mm-hm.” At the same time, Yan Jinyu pressed on the “watch” again. With a “swoosh”, something seemed to fly out from the watch and retract back to it. It was so fast that if one didn’t pay attention, they wouldn’t be able to discover it. At the same time, the yogurt box, which was about two meters away from her, had been cut open with a “cross”. The packets of yogurt inside it were also exposed.
Obviously, this was the masterpiece of that thing from the “watch” which had quickly flown out and retracted. The cardboard box was cut open in an instant. If that thing had landed on a person’s neck, they would have died right on the spot.
Yan Jinyu flicked a glance over. One box of 30 packets of yogurt weren’t even enough to last her for two days, but it didn’t matter. Yin Jiujin had transferred the money to her, and she could buy more after she finished drinking them. Anyway, if she didn’t pay for them from her account, those people wouldn’t notice. If they didn’t, they wouldn’t keep nagging at her.
“Where are you now? Are you at the Yan Family’s residence or Mount Jing?” Mount Jing was Yin Jiujin’s residence in North City.
“The Yan Family’s residence,” Yan Jinyu replied. At the same time, she walked over and took out a packet of yogurt. She sat on the bed and started drinking as she made the “call”.
She didn’t bother to conceal the sound of her drinking the yogurt. Naturally, the other party could hear it and she changed her tone, “Are you drinking yogurt again? Didn’t I tell you to only drink two cans per day? You’re still young and still growing. It’s not good for your body if you keep drinking like this.”
Yan Jinyu blinked. “This is my first packet today.” She was lying through her teeth.
The woman clearly did not believe her. “Really?”
Yan Jinyu tossed the empty packet into the rubbish bin. With a shake of her left hand, a new packet of yogurt was instantly flown into her hand. She held it and continued drinking. Without changing her expression, she said, “Really.”
“Then, I’ll believe you again for now. Hmph, even though you have always lied to me. I’ll ask Feng to prescribe some medicinal herbs for you after some time. Otherwise, you’ll have problems sooner or later since you keep drinking them nonstop.” As she said that, the sound of the lighter being lit up was heard.
Yan Jinyu stopped drinking the yogurt, “You’re smoking again.”
The other party coughed dryly, “No, you’ve heard wrongly. I quit a long time ago.”
“Meimei, you lied to me again.”
Meimei continued, “…I told you not to call me that. Those who don’t know might think that I’m your younger sister. I’m 23 this year and five years older than you!” [1. The word “phantom” and the word “younger sister” in Chinese sounded exactly the same.]
“You’re smoking again.”
“…Alright, I admit it. I promise this will be the last time… I only get to smoke once in a blue moon. Why did you extinguish my cigarette?! I say, why didn’t you stay in the Min Family and be their second young master? Why did you come to me?”
