Chapter 89 - Unknown Background
In an office on the top floor of a commercial building now.
"Sir, the person we sent out has confirmed that the eldest daughter of the Yan Family had indeed grown up in an "Angel Orphanage" in that small town over the years. There were traces of her living there. Even the place where she worked after graduating from the third year of junior high school was investigated, but…"
The man sitting behind the desk was wearing a black s.h.i.+rt, making his face look even paler. He held a doc.u.ment in his hand and looked up when he heard this. "Oh? But what?"
He then covered his mouth and coughed.
After coughing, his face turned a few shades paler, but he did not appear to be in a sorry state. There was a faint smile at the corner of his lips that exuded shrewdness.
"It"s just that Miss Yan doesn"t stay at every position for long. She has done nearly fifty jobs in three years, and the longest she has done is less than three months."
"Reason."
"According to the information we sent out, it"s said that it"s because Eldest Miss Yan"s personality isn"t very well-liked by her boss. She was either fired or she resigned on her own."
The man smiled mysteriously. "Is that so?"
The a.s.sistant lowered his head, knowing that he wasn"t asking him. He didn"t respond and continued to report, "It"s just that the information that came back didn"t mention that Miss Yan knows how to race. It didn"t even mention that Miss Yan has been learning how to drive all these years. This is extremely inconsistent with Miss Yan"s performance at the racing arena that day."
"So, I"m afraid the information we"ve found about Miss Yan is very different from the truth."
The man raised his eyebrows.
As expected.
After all, the outcome would be the same even if Yin Jiujin personally investigated.
Ever since he saw Yan Jinyu"s outstanding driving skills at the racing arena that day, he knew that she wasn"t as simple as she looked.
It was a pity that the results were the same even after he sent a few groups of people to investigate. It seemed like his plan to find Yan Jinyu"s unknown side before Yin Jiujin was going to fail.
Forget it. He did not expect to find anything from the beginning.
However, even he and Yin Jiujin couldn"t find out anything about this eldest daughter of the Yan Family. He was really curious about her.
"How"s Eldest Missy doing in North City?"
The man was the head of the Huo Family, Huo Xuan, and the person standing in the office reporting to him was his a.s.sistant, Huo Ning.
The Huo Corporation was more of a family business than the Yan Corporation. 80% of the higher-ups in the company were surnamed Huo.
Of course, only their surnames were Huo.
The Huo Family"s hierarchy was very clear. Just like Huo Xuan, he was the head of the entire Huo Family and had an outstanding status in the Huo Family. However, his a.s.sistant, Huo Ning, was from a side branch of the Huo Family. He was recruited by Huo Xuan because of his outstanding ability and was considered one of Huo Xuan"s right-hand men.
"With Master Nine taking care of Missy on behalf of Young Master Qin, Missy won"t be in danger in North City. You also arranged for someone to take care of Missy beforehand. Missy has been well-taken care of by someone in North City for the past few days, but…"
Huo Xuan glanced at him and Huo Ning"s heart skipped a beat. He quickly continued, "Missy was on the same flight as Master Nine from the capital to North City. Miss Yan went to pick Master Nine up and met Missy. Later, Missy received her invitation to attend the Yan Family"s birthday party."
"It"s today, right." He had just received the news.
"The Eldest Miss Yan personally invited Rainy?"
"Yes, someone from North City sent back the news. The invitation letter that Missy received was sent over by Master Nine."
"Is that so?" Huo Xuan"s lips curled up slightly as he tapped his hand on the desk in front of him.
It had been a year since he brought Rainy back to the Huo Family, and he had a rough understanding of Rainy"s personality. She seemed easy to get along with, but she was actually very difficult to get close to. She was even a little distant from her family members like them.
He didn"t expect that she would attend the Yan Family"s banquet according to Yan Jinyu"s wishes.
Of course, the fact that Rainy got to know Yan Jinyu probably had something to do with Yin Jiujin.
If he guessed correctly, the fact that Yin Jiujin would specially introduce Rainy to Yan Jinyu was something worth pondering about.
If Yin Jiujin didn"t really care about Yan Jinyu, he wouldn"t have made such plans for her, even if it was just to introduce a girl of similar age to her in the upper-cla.s.s circle.
However, regardless of whether Yin Jiujin had contributed to Rainy and Yan Jinyu knowing each other, Yan Jinyu"s ability to make Rainy—who was difficult to get close to others—accept her invitation to the Yan Family"s birthday party on the second day she arrived in North City made him even more curious about Yan Jinyu.
If Yin Jiujin hadn"t gotten back at him so quickly and made him so busy that he couldn"t escape from being trapped in South City, he really wanted to go to North City immediately to see this Eldest Miss Yan.
"What about now? Is Rainy still in the Yan Family?"
"I was about to report this to you, Sir."
"It"s like this. I just received news that Eldest Miss Yan had already left the Yan Family an hour ago. She seemed to have fallen out with the Yan Family. The cause was that the Yan Family mistreated Eldest Miss Yan. Master Nine personally brought her out of the Yan Family and headed to Mount Jing."
Upon hearing this, Huo Xuan felt a little curious. "There"s such a thing? Are the Yan Family people brainless? Not to mention that Yin Jiujin does have some feelings for Miss Yan, even if he doesn"t, she still has the t.i.tle of Yin Jiujin"s fiancée. It"s really hard to understand why the Yan Family would dare to treat her so harshly."
Huo Ning fell silent. He couldn"t understand it either.
Other than the Yan Family being stupid, he could not think of a better reason to explain the Yan Family"s foolishness.
"Besides, Eldest Miss Yan is obviously not an easy person to deal with. Yan Qingyu doesn"t even have such good judgment after staying together for two months?"
"I think so. The Yan Family"s influence in North City has been greatly reduced under Yan Qingyu"s management all these years. It can be seen that Yan Qingyu is indeed not outstanding," Huo Ning said.
"It"s a pity. When Old Master Yan was still alive, the Yan Family was almost on par with the Huo Family. The Yan Family had already declined to such a state in just a few years. Now, they"ve fallen out with Yin Jiujin"s fiancée. They"ve indirectly offended Yin Jiujin. Tsk, the Yan Family will probably be wasted away by Yan Qingyu."
"That"s not entirely true. The people in North City also sent news that Eldest Miss Yan had given 13% of the Yan Corporation shares that Old Madam Yan had left for her to Second Miss Yan. The Yan Family"s daughter, Yan Ruyu, who had married and settled overseas, had also taken out 10% of her 20% shares for Second Miss Yan. In addition, Old Yan had left 13% for Second Miss Yan. Currently, Second Miss Yan already has 36% of the Yan Corporation"s shares, which is 6% more than Yan Qingyu. Before tomorrow, the Yan Corporation will change its person-in-charge."
Huo Xuan had been so busy recently that he couldn"t leave. He had been in the office for almost a week and had no time to pay attention to the news outside.
If it was in the past, he would definitely have received the news immediately after such a major event like the Yan Family changing its person-in-charge as Yan Jinyu was someone he was monitoring. He wouldn"t have to wait more than an hour to hear Huo Ning"s report now.
"Interesting." He coughed lightly.
Although he was coughing and his face was pale and sickly, his aura did not decrease at all.
It was feminine, but it exuded a faint shrewdness at the same time.
It was very aggressive.
"Second Miss Yan is Yan Jinyu"s twin sister? I heard that she has quite a reputation in the high society circle in North City?"
"Yes, she"s the top socialite in North City. Although she"s only 18 years old, she already has her own people in the Yan Corporation. Yan Qingyu probably can"t compare to her in terms of knowledge and means. The Yan Family will probably rise to a higher level in her hands."
"Especially since she has Yan Jinyu"s support," Huo Xuan added.
"With Yan Jinyu"s support, not to mention that Yan Jinyu isn"t a simple person herself, just the fact that Yan Jinyu received Yin Jiujin"s special treatment means that the Yan Family"s future is destined to be limitless."
Huo Xuan knew very well what Yin Jiujin was capable of. In all these years, the only person he treated seriously as an opponent was Yin Jiujin.
"It seems like it now." The premise was that Master Nine had always treated Miss Yan differently.
But Huo Ning didn"t voice it out.
The fact that he could be used as Huo Xuan"s right-hand man showed that he had some capabilities.
At this point, how could he not see that Yan Jinyu was not simple?
Even without Yin Jiujin, with Yan Jinyu around, the Yan Family would definitely not decline in Yan Jinyun"s hands, whom Yan Jinyu supported.
"Miss Yan followed Master Nine to Mount Jing. It seems like she"s going to Mount Jing to continue celebrating her birthday. Second Miss Yan and the rest followed too…"
"Missy went as well."
"Mount Jing?" Huo Xuan smiled.
Mount Jing was Yin Jiujin"s private territory, and it was even very difficult for the Yin Family to step foot in it. He actually allowed Yan Jinyu to go to Mount Jing to celebrate her birthday. Not only that, but he also allowed others to follow them.
He was already completely certain that Yin Jiujin cared for Yan Jinyu greatly.
"Yes, but our men can"t follow Missy to Mount Jing to continue protecting her."
"It"s fine. Although Yin Jiujin doesn"t get along with me in the business world, he has a close relations.h.i.+p with Qin Hao. Rainy will only be safer in Mount Jing."
"Then, Sir, should we continue investigating Eldest Miss Yan?"
