Chapter 137 - Meeting With Jinyun
Half a month pa.s.sed in the blink of an eye.
Yan Jinyu finally left Mount Jing today. However, she wasn"t with Yin Jiujin. Instead, shortly after Yin Jiujin left for the company, she got Uncle Cheng to send someone to drive her down the mountain.
Yan Jinyun called her to meet up.
In the cold drink shop, "Summer Time".
Yan Jinyun was already waiting when Yan Jinyu arrived.
Instead of sitting in the private room, she casually chose a seat by the window.
Yan Jinyun was a cold beauty to begin with. Now that she was sitting here alone and in a more conspicuous position, it was inevitable that the customers in the cold drink shop would instinctively look at her. Of course, there would be people who wanted to hit on her, but Yan Jinyun was too cold and had an aura. In the end, the people who wanted to hit on her only had the intention but didn"t have the courage to do so.
However, they kept looking at her from time to time.
Hence, the first thing they saw was the cold beauty smiling in a certain direction.
"Sister, over here!" They saw her waving and shouting.
Following her gaze, everyone"s eyes lit up when they saw the girl in a pink floral dress coming over.
What a beautiful pair of sisters! Her sister was already so eye-catching, but they didn"t expect her sister to be even more conspicuous than her.
The onlookers had a feast for the eyes.
Yan Jinyu ignored their gazes and walked over to sit opposite Yan Jinyun. "Are you done?"
Perhaps it was because of the tacit understanding between the twins, Yan Jinyun could understand what she was asking even if she didn"t say much. "It"s about time. The Yan Corporation"s people had almost been sorted out. There basically won"t be any big trouble. The Luo Family had already completely changed to Qiu to be in charge the day before yesterday. Yesterday, the Yan Corporation and the Luo Corporation had already signed the following cooperative agreement."
Yan Jinyu raised her eyebrows. "So fast?"
It had only been a month or so, but it was faster than she expected.
"Naturally, I wouldn"t have done it so quickly if I was the only one who contributed. Just those old fogeys in the Yan Corporation are enough for me to deal with."
"Oh?"
Yan Jinyun didn"t intend to hide anything from Yan Jinyu. She outrightly said, "On the Luo Family"s side, it seems like Luo Yikun has been helping Qiu. Zhang Mei"s crime has been confirmed, and she has been convicted in court. Luo Wanhong, who found out about the cause of his ex-wife"s death and his daughter"s background, feels very guilty about Qiu. In addition, he has been deceived by his wife for many years, and his biological son is lying in the hospital half dead. He completely isn"t in the mood to manage the company"s affairs, so he handed everything to Qiu."
"But this Luo Yikun…" Yan Jinyun frowned." In the past, I only thought that he was a useless second-generation heir. I didn"t expect… It can be said that if it wasn"t for Luo Yikun"s help, Qiu wouldn"t have taken over the Luo Family so quickly. "
"Luo Yikun is really a secretive person. Fortunately, his intentions are not with the Luo Family. Otherwise, in the future, the Luo Family would be the Yan Family"s strongest opponent in North City." Of course, in the eyes of outsiders previously, the Yan Family"s strongest opponent was the Luo Family in North City. However, only those who knew about it knew that the Luo Family in the past was completely incomparable to the Yan Family.
That might not be the case if Luo Yikun was in charge of the Luo Family.
"It"s fine if he wants to take over the Luo Family. Don"t you still have me around?" Yan Jinyu said with a chuckle.
"As long as I"m around, no one can touch the Yan Family, let alone the Yan Corporation."
Yan Jinyun was stunned when she heard that.
It wasn"t that she doubted Yan Jinyu"s ability, but she was simply touched by her words. Speaking of which, the Yan Family had owed Yan Jinyu. If it were anyone else, it would be good if they didn"t take revenge, but she was still so protective of the Yan Family…
Or rather, she was so protective of her.
She actually treated Yan Jinyu so badly in the past…
As she thought about it, she felt even more guilty.
There was no meaning in saying the words "I"m sorry". In order to make up for the Yan Family"s guilt towards Yan Jinyu and reduce the guilt in her heart, all she could do was to properly manage the Yan Corporation and develop it. She wanted the Yan Family to become Yan Jinyu"s strongest backing when she married into the Yin Family in the future.
"I know, so I"m actually not too worried," Yan Jinyun said.
Yan Jinyu glanced at her but didn"t continue on with the topic. She only said, "If you meet Luo Yikun in the future or Luo Yikun makes any unusual moves, don"t fight him head-on. Just tell me directly and I"ll deal with it."
"Luo Yikun is probably not someone you can deal with." Even if she hadn"t investigated carefully, Yan Jinyu could still sense it.
Of course, she could only sense it.
Luo Yikun didn"t hold any weight in her heart because of this. If Luo Yikun wasn"t a member of the Luo Family in North City, she wouldn"t even have noticed him.
Even if Luo Yikun was indeed not simple.
Hearing her say that, Yan Jinyun"s expression turned cold. "Alright." She still trusted Yan Jinyu. Since Yan Jinyu had already said so, she naturally wouldn"t suspect her.
"Sister, you…"
Yan Jinyun wanted to ask Yan Jinyu where she had lived and how she had survived all these years.
She was about to say something when she suddenly changed the topic, "Have you been living well in Mount Jing recently?"
With Yan Jinyu"s sharp senses, she naturally sensed that Yan Jinyun didn"t want to ask this at first. She didn"t expose her and said with a smile, "Very well."
"How"s Yun"er doing in the Yan Family?"
Yan Jinyun"s expression froze slightly, and she forced a smile. "It"s quite good." She then added, "Dad and Mom have always treated me very well. We"re the only family in the house, so what"s wrong with that?"
Looking into Yan Jinyu"s fixed eyes, Yan Jinyun suddenly couldn"t hold it in anymore. Her eyes instantly turned red, "Sister, I don"t understand. Why are they doing this? Am I not the heir of the Yan Corporation? What"s wrong with the Yan Corporation falling into my hands? Dad clearly knows that if the Yan Corporation is still under his control, it will only go downhill and might even be destroyed. Why is he still so upset that the Yan Corporation is in my hands?"
"Ever since I took over the Yan Corporation, he looks at me like I"m his enemy."
"What exactly does Dad want? Does he really want to see the Yan Corporation destroyed just like that? Or does he not believe that I can manage the Yan Corporation at all? But now, I"ve clearly stabilized the Yan Corporation. All the businesses are proceeding in an orderly manner. Everything is developing in a better direction. Why did Dad…"
"And Mom too. It"s still understandable that Dad treated me that way. After all, I"ve s.n.a.t.c.hed his power and embarra.s.sed him. But what about Mom? Her interests haven"t been harmed at all. I still give her her pocket money as usual. I even give her more than when Dad was in charge of the family in the past. She still goes to play cards and shop every day. Why is she always mocking me?"
"It was clearly not like this in the past. They used to treat me so well."
Yan Jinyu"s eyes flickered slightly. "Why are you lying to yourself?"
Yan Jinyun paused and bit her lip tightly.
"Actually, you already knew that they were people who only cared about their own interests, right?" To put it simply, they were selfish.
Yan Jinyun was silent.
"The prerequisite for treating you well and loving you is that you haven"t harmed their interests. Dad is a person who values face and power. One day, his power was suddenly s.n.a.t.c.hed away by his biological daughter and he lost all his face in the high society circle in North City. Do you think he won"t blame you?"
Yan Jinyu didn"t want to make things too clear by using the word "blame". Actually, in her opinion, Yan Qingyu not only had resentment towards Yan Jinyun, but also hatred.
If not for the fact that the Yan Corporation was in Yan Jinyun"s hands and Yan Jinyun clearly had the support of her, Yin Jiujin"s fiancée, the Yan Corporation would have been finished if something happened to Yan Jinyun. Yan Qingyu would probably still treat Yan Jinyun…
"As for Mom, she often showed off in high society with the image of a harmonious family with a doting husband and an obedient daughter. Now that she"s like this, she won"t be able to hold her head up high in front of those wealthy ladies and mahjong buddies… Moreover, you"re her daughter. In the future, regardless of whether it"s a marriage alliance or something else, you"ll have to marry into someone else"s family."
"B-But, should I never get married after taking over the Yan Corporation now? Besides, even if I get married, would I be stupid enough to hand over the Yan Family"s a.s.sets to someone else? Or is it that in Mom"s eyes, I"m stupid enough to find someone who wants the Yan Family"s a.s.sets?"
"Alright, even if I"m really stupid enough to give all my a.s.sets to someone else, am I so heartless that I won"t care about her life?"
"And Dad, am I not the heir that he thinks highly of? Although it"s a little early to inherit the family business now, isn"t it because there is no other way? If I don"t take over, based on how Dad and Mom treat you…"
At this point, Yan Jinyun suddenly paused. She hesitated for a moment before saying, "At the banquet that day, almost all the famous people in North City were at the Yan Family. With Dad"s actions… even if Master Nine couldn"t be bothered to make a move on the Yan Corporation, those guests will still think that Dad has offended Master Nine."
"In North City, who would dare to cooperate with someone who has offended Master Nine? Dad clearly knows it too."
"Sister, since you don"t want the Yan Corporation, then the Yan Corporation is destined to be mine. Then, is it really that important to Dad whether it"s given to me earlier or later?"
Suddenly, Yan Jinyun thought of something and said with difficulty, "Or is it that Dad never planned to hand the Yan Corporation to me from the beginning?"
"No, you"re really the heir that Dad thinks highly of," Yan Jinyu said.
"However, you can only take over the Yan Corporation when he dies of old age and can no longer see anything."
Yan Jinyun"s face turned pale.
She actually knew it. She was just…
She was just unwilling to admit it.
"You can move out," Yan Jinyu said after a long while.
Yan Jinyun smiled bitterly and shook her head. "It"s still fine. I"ve lived there for 18 years and I can"t bear to leave." It wasn"t that she couldn"t bear to leave, but if she really moved out like this, this family would probably really be dispersed.
Yan Jinyu glanced at her and changed the topic that was a little depressing, "Let"s not talk about this anymore. I heard that Cousin Feng Yuan entered the Feng Corporation and even helped you a lot during this period of time?"
At the mention of Feng Yuan, Yan Jinyun"s attention was indeed diverted.
She nodded. "Yes, He has helped me a lot."
"Yun"er, your relations.h.i.+p with Cousin Feng Yuan…"
Yan Jinyu didn"t continue, but Yan Jinyun put away her complicated emotions and smiled. "Sister, I really don"t know if it"s because we"re twins. I"ve hidden my thoughts so deeply that no one has realized it but you actually saw through it so quickly."
"That"s right. I like Feng Yuan. Very much. I don"t know what"s so good about him either. He"s clearly so unpleasant with his words, and he"s so annoying and useless."
Suddenly, Yan Jinyu smiled. "Oh, I forgot to say that Cousin Feng Yuan is standing right behind you now."
