Chapter 526: I’m Back
Ji Yinbing was stunned.
Earrings?
What earrings?
She suddenly recalled the pair of earrings Vera had on when she returned from America.
Could it be…
Ji Yinbing asked Yan Nuo. “Master, are you referring to those ice green earrings? Fish-shaped ones?”
“Yes.”
That was actually a gift from Little Master!
Vera, this little b.i.t.c.h!
On the other end of the phone, Ji Yinbing’s eyes were filled with ruthlessness, but her tone when she spoke to Yan Nuo was still calm. “Yes.” She didn’t want Yan Nuo to know about these troubling matters.
“Alright, I’m hanging up.”
Yan Nuo ended the call.
Ji Yinbing fell silent.
His master had bought her a gift. It was a pair of earrings, but Miss Vera had taken them for herself. She naturally did not have the right to ask Miss Weila for the earrings, but Ji Yinbing was unwilling to be bullied like this.
She secretly made a note about Vera.
If she took her things, she would make her return them with both hands sooner or later.
In the year that Vera was 20 years old, she signed up for the Miss India modeling compet.i.tion.
The so-called Miss India was just a selection compet.i.tion for the upper-cla.s.s socialites to become famous. It was not meant for those from lower-cla.s.s families.
When the selection compet.i.tion for Miss Mumbai ended, the news of Yan Nuo’s return reached the Yan family.
Ji Yinbing, who was already 14 years old and not yet 15 years old, stood on both sides of the Yan family’s manor in a pair of jeans and a simple white s.h.i.+rt.
She was still wearing Yan Yu’s unwanted clothes.
Ji Yinbing stood with all the servants.
Today, her cold face was filled with excitement.
Yan Nuo was coming back today!
They had not seen each other for four years, and she did not know how tall and handsome the little master was.
Yan Yu personally went to pick Yan Nuo up. The car had already been gone for two hours. It would probably not be long before Yan Nuo arrived home. Ji Yinbing was thinking about this when she suddenly heard the butler’s voice coming from outside the door. La Pu said, “Little Sir is back!”
The sound of a steam whistle approached.
A Hummer SUV stopped outside the Yan house.
The car doors opened and Yan Yu got out of the car first. Then, it was Vera, who went to the airport to pick Yan Nuo up. The dress that Vera was wearing today showed her figure. It wrapped her legs tightly and she could not take big strides.
The Hummer was tall and it was inconvenient for her to move.
Vera almost fell when she got out of the car but ahe was grabbed by the arm.
Ji Yinbing heard a servant laughing beside her.
Even her lips curled up.
The two women got out of the car. At this moment, Yan Nuo finally walked out.
The man bent down and stretched his head and upper body out of the car. His st.u.r.dy muscles could not be hidden under his loose navy blue s.h.i.+rt. Yan Nuo had a buzz cut. When he looked up, his face was expressionless and cold.
His blue eyes did not fluctuate when he looked at people, appearing very cold.
The man got out of the car. He was wearing a pair of black pants and a pair of military boots.
He stood beside Yan Yu and was a full head taller than her.
The originally cold Yan Nuo was now even more handsome and cold. His entire body exuded an insufferably sharp aura.
No one dared to look at his face.
Four years was enough to let a boy be reborn.
All the servants knelt down at the same time and said respectfully, “Welcome home, Master.”
Ji Yinbing knelt down with them.
Yan Nuo and Yan Yu walked at the front while Vera followed behind Yan Nuo. Yan Nuo walked past Ji Yinbing and walked towards the house. When he walked past Ji Yinbing, he did not notice her from the corner of his eye.
However, Ji Yinbing was not disappointed.
She was happy.
Master was back!
After they left, Ji Yinbing stood up with the others.
“Master is getting more and more dignified. I don’t even dare to look at him.”
“Master is really good-looking.”
“Miss Vera looks so compatible with Master when she stands beside him.”
Ji Yinbing listened to the soft conversation of the other servants and did not speak.
She agreed with the first two sentences, but she did not agree with the last sentence. It was true that among the women Ji Yinbing knew, Vera was indeed the most outstanding. However, she felt that Vera was not worthy of her master. Her master was the best master in the world, but Vera’s harsh and cunning personality was not likable.
Of course, if her master liked her, Ji Yinbing would respect Vera.
It was not because she really respected Vera, but because she respected Yan Nuo.
She respected Yan Nuo, so she would respect the person he loved.
Yan Nuo’s return was a big deal. That night, Vera’s mother, Anita, dressed up and showed up for dinner.
The four of them ate a harmonious dinner together. After dinner, Yan Nuo received a call from his former cla.s.smates and friends. They invited him to meet at the Asilo Bar.
Yan Nuo had indeed not seen his old friends for many years, so he agreed.
After dinner, Yan Nuo and Vera went to the bar.
Ji Yinbing stayed in her room alone to answer homework questions. Around 11 pm, there was a sound downstairs. Ji Yinbing thought that Yan Nuo had returned. She ran downstairs and saw Yan Nuo and Vera sitting on the sofa. The two of them leaned their heads against each other as if they were kissing. Their lips were very close.
Yan Nuo seemed to be asleep or pretending to be asleep.
It was impossible for someone as vigilant as him not to notice Vera’s actions. However, he silently agreed with her ident.i.ty.
Ji Yinbing hid in the corner of the stairs and watched for a while before turning around silently and going upstairs.
Downstairs, after a moment of silence, Yan Nuo finally opened his eyes. He rubbed his eyebrows and only then did he see Vera. A look of surprise appeared on Yan Nuo’s tired face. “You haven’t left?” He had just reached home today and had been tired from the journey. He had gone to the bar for a drink and when he returned home, he inevitably relaxed and lowered his guard around him.
He did not notice Vera’s actions.
“I saw you weren’t feeling well, so I didn’t leave.”
Yan Nuo said politely, “Thank you.” His att.i.tude was very distant.
Yan Nuo narrowed his eyes and said to Vera, “It’s getting late. Stay at our house tonight. It’s not safe to go back so late.”
Vera said, “Okay.”
Yan Nuo got up and dragged his heavy head upstairs.
At this moment, Vera suddenly stood up and asked, “Brother Yan Nuo, four years ago, you said that you would give me your answer.” Vera bit her red lips and looked embarra.s.sed. She asked Yan Nuo, “What’s your answer?”
Yan Nuo stopped in his tracks.
His answer…
“Vera, I…” Yan Nuo said with a frown. “I quite like you.”
Vera was happy, but she heard Yan Nuo say, “But I don’t love you.” All these years, he had stayed in America for a long time and had seen more people. He understood his sister’s thoughts more and more. His sister did not plan to find a man in India to live with, and he did not really want to find a woman in India to live with..
