Chapter 435: Reporting For The First Time
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Yan Jinyu reported to school alone and didn’t let Yin Jiujin follow her.
She did this for two reasons.
Firstly, Yin Jiujin was too conspicuous. She was afraid that the young girls in school would target Yin Jiujin. Furthermore, with Yin Jiujin around, she would probably become famous on her first day in school. Yin Jiujin’s face was really too attractive.
Although she didn’t care about that, she just didn’t like trouble, so it was better to keep a low profile.
Secondly, the Empire Group’s headquarters had just moved to the capital, and they still had a lot of things to do. Yin Jiujin was very busy. Yan Jinyu simply didn’t want him to take time out of his busy schedule to accompany her and then working overtime at night.
Of course, Yan Jinyu had put in a lot of effort to persuade Yin Jiujin not to send her to school.
She came from the Mount West Villa with a small backpack and a suitcase. She got Uncle Cheng to arrange for someone to drive her over.
She asked the driver to put her down at the entrance of the Imperial Capital University and she walked in.
There were no clothes in her luggage. It was just a thin blanket and some simple daily necessities.
As for the rest, she would buy them slowly.
She was wearing a black and white floral dress and her long hair was down. Her naturally curly long hair, coupled with her face, was undoubtedly eye-catching.
“Is that a new student?”
“That new student is so good-looking!”
“She’s a cold beauty!”
“Nonsense. She’s clearly a gentle girl! Look at her innocent big eyes darting around like a little fairy who has entered the mortal world by mistake!”
“You’re exaggerating! She’s clearly a cold beauty!”
***
Yan Jinyu dragged her luggage forward. She kept hearing such arguments.
The Imperial Capital University was in the capital of the country. The students who could get in here were all outstanding people from all over the country. Their qualities were generally quite high.
Even thought Yan Jinyu was so conspicuous, many people couldn’t help but whisper when they saw her, no one took the initiative to approach her or ask for her contact information.
At the entrance of the school, older students raised their school signs to welcome the new students.
Yan Jinyu casually glanced over and saw that the College of Traditional Chinese Medicine wasn’t far away. There were two tables there, and four people were sitting there. There were two boys and two girls. One of the boys was holding up a sign that read “College of Traditional Chinese Medicine”.
Traditional Chinese Medicine pract.i.tioners had to memorize many medical books, so other than one girl, the other three people were wearing gla.s.ses.
Of course, it was also possible that they studied too hard in high school and were short-sighted before entering university.
Yan Jinyu suddenly felt that her vision was so good that she could still see even at night, as long as there was a faint light, was simply an existence that made people jealous.
She dragged her luggage over.
Because of Yan Jinyu’s conspicuousness, regardless of whether it was the older students or new students who came to report, most of them were staring at her. Seeing that she was walking towards the territory of the Traditional Chinese Medicine Academy, many people let out wails, especially the boys.
He sighed in exasperation. Such a beautiful girl was about to be squeezed dry by the heavy medical books. Perhaps, she would have to wear thick gla.s.ses after four years in university!
Seeing Yan Jinyu walking over, a girl hurriedly patted the boy beside her. “Look, a beauty is here!”
“I saw her long ago. Do I need you to remind me?”
“No, I mean, she seems to be coming towards us. She should be a new student at our school.”
“Impossible!” The boy said righteously, “How can our school have such a beautiful girl? Even if she approaches us, she must be here to ask for directions! Don’t be naive, you pervert!”
“Who dioes not like a beauty? If you’re not a beauty-lover, why did you keep staring at that beauty just now?”
“Everyone likes to look beautiful people. What’s so strange about that? However, to be honest, it would be great if this beauty is really from our school. Unfortunately, I can only dream…”
“Even if she’s from our school, what does it have to do with you? Why don’t you know how ugly you look?”
“I say, what are you thinking about? Am I the kind of person who covets a junior’s beauty? I know my limits, okay! I just want to say that if she’s from our school, we’ll have face when we go out. People won’t always say that our school’s students’ looks are generally below average.”
“What do you mean by below average looks? Our Min Sisi is the belle of the department. She’s still very good-looking.”
***
Yan Jinyu wasn’t close, but she still heard their conversation. She only felt that a school was indeed the cleanest and purest place. It was filled with youth and vitality.
The next four years might not be too boring.
At that moment, a shout came from behind, “Beauty Yu!”
The corners of Yan Jinyu’s lips curled up when she heard that voice.
Little Rain was still as fl.u.s.tered as usual.
She turned back and saw Huo Siyu waving at her as she ran over. However, she was not alone. There was someone beside her. Tan s.h.i.+yun.
Tan s.h.i.+yun was also dragging her luggage. She should be here to report too.
Compared to Huo Siyu, Tan s.h.i.+yun was completely a demure lady.
“Beauty Yu, why didn’t you call me in advance since you’re reporting here today? Fortunately, I suddenly thought of coming over to take a look. Otherwise, I wouldn’t know that you’re coming to school today.”
Yan Jinyu easily avoided her bear hug. “I wanted to call you after I reported.”
Huo Siyu was already used to her not accepting her warm hug and was not angry.
“You’re making it sound so nice now. Will you still stay here after you report? It’s difficult for me to see you even if I want to since you’re guarding your Brother Nine every day.”
Of course, Huo Siyu was exaggerating. If she really wanted to see Yan Jinyu, she could just call Yan Jinyu or look for her directly.
No matter if it was a call or a personal visit, Yan Jinyu would meet her. Especially when they were in a city now and Liu Guang could come out and cause trouble at any time.
Seeing the ambiguous smile on Yan Jinyu’s face, Huo Siyu hurriedly hugged her arm. “Isn’t this me trying to show that it’s very difficult to meet you? Can you guarantee that you’ll definitely call me when you’re done reporting?”
“If I’m not busy, I’ll call.”
“You’re just patronizing me, Beauty Yu. You’re rarely not busy. Isn’t it equally difficult for me to see you?”
“We’ll be schoolmates in the future.” She meant that they could meet every day in school.
Huo Siyu was satisfied.
“By the way, Beauty Yu, I happened to b.u.mp into Miss Tan when I came over just now, so I led her over. She’s in the School of Economics. Look, it’s beside your College of Traditional Chinese Medicine.”
“Don’t call me Miss Tan. Just call me s.h.i.+yun like Miss Huo.” After saying that, she smiled and greeted Yan Jinyu, “Jinyu.”
Huo Siyu didn’t respond immediately. Instead, she glanced at Yan Jinyu. Seeing that she didn’t say anything, she smiled and said, “Alright, I’ll call you s.h.i.+yun like Beauty Yu. But s.h.i.+yun, you asked me to call you by your name, but you called me Miss Huo?”
After a moment of hesitation, Tan s.h.i.+yun smiled and asked, “Then what should I call you? Siyu?”
“Sure, as long as you don’t call me Miss Huo.”
“Alright, I’ll call you Siyu from now on.”
She actually knew Huo Siyu’s ident.i.ty, but no one had explicitly said it. Then, she would pretend not to know and use her superficial ident.i.ty to get along with her.
“Speaking of which, our Bo Family has yet to express our grat.i.tude to the Huo Family in person when the Jones Family caused trouble previously. Today, I met Siyu here, so I sincerely thank you. I also hope that Siyu can help me pa.s.s this grat.i.tude to Young Master Huo.”
“Thank you.” She was really serious and even bowed.
Huo Siyu blinked and looked at Yan Jinyu. What was going on?
“You don’t have to do this. You’re one of us when you cooperate with Beauty Yu. It’s just a small favor. You don’t have to take it to heart.”
In reality, her brother did that. She didn’t know about it before and only found out later.
Her brother was not someone who was compa.s.sionate. Why would he care about the life and death of a completely unrelated Bo Family? He was only helping them because of Beauty Yu.
Huo Siyu sighed inwardly.
She felt that her brother’s one-sided love was too tragic.
However, he did not even want to compete with Yin Jiujin because of his personality and upbringing.
Of course, as Beauty Yu’s good friend, she didn’t want her brother to fight for her. Beauty Yu was living very well now, but as her younger sister, she felt sorry for her brother.
It was difficult.
She only hoped that her brother would walk out quickly.
She could only blame Beauty Yu for being too outstanding and making her brother, who had never had feelings for a woman, fall for her.
“Although that’s the case, I still have to thank you.”
“Then I’ll accept your grat.i.tude and pa.s.s it to Brother. Since we’re already friends, don’t mention this again in the future.”
Tan s.h.i.+yun smiled. “Yes, we won’t talk about it anymore.”
She thought to herself, [The outside world has made them sounded so formidable. In the past, she thought that they were very difficult to get along with. After all, their reputations are there.]
After real contact, she realized that they were no different from ordinary girls.
Of course, not everyone could compare to them in terms of looks and temperament.
“I’ll report first. I’ll contact you later.”
Yan Jinyu nodded, and Tan s.h.i.+yun left with her luggage.
“Beauty Yu, let’s go too. You’re too conspicuous standing here. Look, many people are looking at you.”
Yan Jinyu said in amus.e.m.e.nt, “Why can’t they be looking at you?”
“Hehehe, you’re right. I’m not bad looking either. Perhaps they’ll look at me too?” Huo Siyu’s looks were really not bad. One could tell from looking at her brother, Huo Xuan.
Actually, Huo Siyu was right. The people around them were only looking at Yan Jinyu. But when Huo Siyu and Tan s.h.i.+yun came, the three good-looking girls standing together were really too pleasing to the eye and the onlookers couldn’t ignore them.
So, they watched them together.
“Let’s go. Give me the luggage and let’s report together.”
Huo Siyu took the initiative to take the luggage, and Yan Jinyu didn’t reject her. After all, the luggage wasn’t heavy.
“Th-they’re really coming our way!” The girl jumped up excitedly.
When Yan Jinyu approached, she cleared her throat. “h.e.l.lo, schoolmate. Are you here to report?”
“Yes, h.e.l.lo.”
Hence, the woman was afraid that others would beat her to it and hurriedly said, “Then I’ll bring you to report.”
The other three looked at her with scary gazes.
Especially the two boys.
Yan Jinyu thanked them, and the girl smiled smugly at them before leading Yan Jinyu away.
“Are you also a new student too, Schoolmate? Which school are you from? I can point you the way.” At that distance, Yan Jinyu could hear their conversation, but they might not be able to hear Yan Jinyu and the other two’s conversation.
Of course, that was excluding that “Beauty Yu” which Huo Siyu had shouted at the top of her lungs.
