Chapter 16 - Jinyun"s Setback
The smile on Yan Jinyun"s face froze again.
Yan Jinyu acted like she didn"t see it and smiled. "You don"t agree? Didn"t you say that you would try your best to satisfy all my needs? This isn"t something difficult to do, right?"
It was not difficult, but she simply didn"t want to do it at all!
If she agreed to it today, regardless of whether Yan Jinyu had the ability to move in, she would have to find someone to start work immediately. This was because she wanted to take down this unsophisticated Yan Jinyu during this period of time and make her listen to her.
It would be even harder to gain Yan Jinyu"s trust if she had agreed but failed to accomplish it.
"It"s indeed not difficult, but it"s too troublesome. You also know that once the construction starts, it will be very noisy for a few months. I can move to another building to live in, but Mom and Dad"s rooms are on the third floor. They can"t move elsewhere for the renovation. If we really want to renovate the second floor, I"m afraid it will disturb them. Otherwise, there are a few more buildings behind the main building. Which one do you like? I"ll tell Mom and ask her to get someone to turn it into your room. How about that?"
Her words were generous and appropriate, and she even sounded as if she really did care about her. Yan Jinyu was rather impressed by her.
She did indeed deserve her reputation as the number one socialite in North City.
"Do as you see fit. If it"s not the main building, then it doesn"t matter which building I stay in. Before the new room is renovated, I"ll stay in the room from last night."
She had never intended to torture them, but since Yan Jinyun insisted on provocating her. It wouldn"t be like her if she didn"t do something.
She might not necessarily stay in the room, but she was happy to let them suffer once.
"Okay. I"ll tell Mom to get someone to renovate the place after I come back from school today." Yan Jinyun forced a smile.
She wasn"t embarra.s.sed at all!
"By the way, you still don"t know where I go to school, right? I"m at the only elite high school in North City, Boyu High School. I"m in my third year of high school this year. Boyu High School is the best high school in North City. No matter if it"s teachers or students, they"re the best in all the high schools in North City. Most of the students there are from elite families. When you"re done resting at home, I"ll bring you to take a look…"
At this point, Yan Jinyun quickly covered her mouth. "I"m sorry, Sister. I forgot that you dropped out of school because you couldn"t pay for your tuition fees after graduating from the third year of junior high school. You must feel horrible when I talk about school. I don"t have any other intentions. I just want you to know where I"m studying so that I can bring you to take a look in the future. Please don"t overthink." Although she said that kindly, her eyes were full of mockery.
She did it on purpose to let Yan Jinyu understand the difference between them.
However, she was destined to be disappointed. After waiting for a long time, Yan Jinyu still didn"t show any signs of anger or displeasure on her face. She just calmly drank her milk while smiling at her.
She seemed to see a hint of a smile in Yan Jinyu"s eyes.
The half-smile that seemed to be mocking her was no longer there when she took a closer look, as if it was just her imagination.
Perhaps it was just her imagination. Yan Jinyu was someone who had never seen the world before. Even if she had a grudge against them, what schemes could a country b.u.mpkin have? She would definitely show it on her face no matter what she thought. Why would she look at her as though she was playing with her?
With that, Yan Jinyun tossed her earlier thought away.
"Speaking of which, Sister is the same age as me. If you go to school normally, you should be in your third year now. If Sister wants to go to school, I"ll get Dad to help you contact the school. Although you might not be able to enter Boyu, it shouldn"t be a problem for you to enter other high schools. As for the cla.s.ses that Sister left behind, I"ll get Mom to invite a teacher to come over to help Sister make up for it. What do you think, Sister?"
Yan Jinyun was naturally not thinking for Yan Jinyu when she suggested that.
She did this because she wanted Yan Jinyu to think that she was thinking for her so that she could gain her trust. Secondly, she also wanted Yan Jinyu to see the difference between them clearly.
She had to let Yan Jinyu know that they were not at the same level even at school. Not everyone could enter Boyu. Moreover, how could the high school curriculum be easily made up? Not to mention Yan Jinyu, who had only attended junior high in a remote county.
Moreover, she had seen Yan Jinyu"s information and knew that her results were not considered top-notch even in that remote and small place. She was barely above average.
If she was already like this in such a small place, she would only be at the bottom of the cla.s.s in a big city like North City. This was not even counting the cla.s.ses she had missed since she dropped out of school in the past few years.
If Yan Jinyu agreed, she would definitely be tortured until she felt inferior. If she didn"t agree, that would be even better. As a junior high school graduate, it would be impossible for her to marry into the Yin Family even if she was the eldest daughter of the Yan Family. Not to mention the Yin Family, no respectable families would accept her into their families.
"Nothing."
"What?" Yan Jinyun finally realized that she was answering her. She was a little unhappy that Yan Jinyu talked to her with such an att.i.tude. At the same time, she couldn"t help but sneer inwardly.
How dare she compete with her when she had no ambition at all!?
It was just that from last night on, she no longer dared to look down on Yan Jinyu. No matter what, she shouldn"t be someone who didn"t want to improve. Could it be that she had overestimated Yan Jinyu?
"I say, it"s nothing." After being trapped in Ghost Slaughter Island for eight years, the one thing she hated the most was being controlled by others. Letting her go to school? Dream on.
She knew what Yan Jinyun was planning, but she was simply too lazy to expose her.
Without waiting for Yan Jinyun to react, she stood up and walked straight to the kitchen.
She was going to the fridge to get a packet of her yogurt. No, she was going to get two packets of them.
She was feeling a little frustrated now.
Yan Jinyun stared at her retreating back as she ignored her and walked towards the kitchen. She finally lost the smile on her face. She threw down her knife and fork as she no longer had any appet.i.te to eat anymore. She took her bag and walked out. She said to the chauffeur waiting outside with an unfriendly gaze, "Aren"t we leaving? What are you looking at!"
The chauffeur was stunned and then quickly followed after her.
He was thinking , Eldest… No, the Second Young Mistress used to be so gentle and kind, but today…
Was she simply in a bad mood, or was this Second Young Mistress" true nature?
If that was the case, then Second Young Mistress… Forget it, this was not what servants like them should think about. They should just do their job properly.
However, there was no doubt that his impression of Yan Jinyun had changed.
Yan Jinyun, who was in the car, had an increasingly sullen expression on her face. She saw that there was something wrong with the way the driver looked at her just now.
She had been too impulsive and failed to control her emotions. She had to be careful in the future. Otherwise, her hard-earned reputation would be ruined.
It was all Yan Jinyu"s fault. If it wasn"t for her, she wouldn"t have repeatedly lost her composure!
Yan Jinyu didn"t bother to care what Yan Jinyun was thinking about. She took two packets of yogurt from the fridge. She drank one as she walked towards the sofa in the living room with the other in her hand.
She switched on the television and laid on the sofa leisurely. She drank the yogurt as she watched the television.
She didn"t have to go to school or work. She still had someone to cook for her when it was time. If her clothes were dirty, someone would wash them when she changed them. This life…
…hmm, was not bad.
She turned on the television but she did not even watch it. It was just for the ambiance.
However, this action of hers made Fu Ya"s face darken again even though the TV was not loud or did not disturb anyone.
"You"re adapting really quickly! Yesterday, you were still waking up early to work until it was late at night. Now, you"re living the life of a rich young lady!"
Yan Jinyu ignored her. After finis.h.i.+ng the second packet of yogurt, she threw the two empty packets into the rubbish bin. Her actions of accurately throwing the packets into the rubbish bin made Fu Ya and the servant"s eyelids twitch.
Just as Fu Ya regained her senses and was about to flare up again, Yan Jinyu turned back to look at her and smiled with narrowed eyes. "I haven"t forgotten about my childhood so it"s only natural that I get used to it quickly. Mom, don"t be too surprised."
She didn"t forget about her childhood…
Fu Ya recalled what she had just been frightened by. She snorted, grabbed her bag, and then went out to find someone to play cards with.
Out of sight, out of mind!
The moment she walked out of the villa, she b.u.mped into Cheng Lin, Yin Jiujin"s personal chauffeur. Fu Ya"s expression changed as she looked at Cheng Lin.
She felt frustrated as soon as she stepped out of the door! Nothing had been going smoothly ever since that girl came back!
