Chapter 24 - Change Of Att.i.tude
Yan Jinyu didn"t try to avoid them during the entire conversation, so everyone in the living room could see and hear her clearly. However, they couldn"t hear what the other party said.
They had never seen such a gentle expression on Yan Jinyu before, who was the "Little Rain" she was referring to?
She could actually make the terrifying aura that she exuded a second ago disappear in an instant.
Yan Qingyu"s frown deepened. From the information he found, Yan Jinyu didn"t have any good friends. After she graduated from junior high, she worked alone in the county. Other than the orphanage, she didn"t have any contact with anyone else.
What"s with this "Little Rain"?
Also, Yan Qingyu realized how important yogurt was to her when she said that there was no yogurt beside her.
As for why, Yan Qingyu didn"t know.
Did she simply like it?
No, it shouldn"t be just that.
If she only liked to drink it, she wouldn"t have said things like "I thought there was more" and "I was about to go out".
Perhaps, his att.i.tude toward his elder daughter should change. At least, before he found more information about her, he could not treat her with the same att.i.tude as before.
Yan Qingyu suddenly felt suspicious.
Was Yun"er really more suitable to marry into the Yin Family than her?
No other family in North City could compare with the Yan Family, but they still were not worthy of the attention of the Yin Family in the capital. If not for the friends.h.i.+p between his mother and the Yin Family, the Yin Family would not have any interactions with the Yan Family at all.
Yun"er was outstanding and was the top debutante in North City. However, if she was going to attract Master Nine"s attention…
…that was going to be incredibly hard.
However, his elder daughter was different. She still had an engagement with Master Nine and Master Nine personally found her. Furthermore, Master Nine treated her differently.
He had felt that she was not presentable, so even if Master Nine treated her differently, she might not be able to enter a top-notch family like the Yin Family. But just now, she could scare him and Fu Ya with just a smile and a look. This showed that she was not as useless as he initially thought.
Perhaps, there was a reason why Master Nine thought highly of her.
It didn"t matter if she was close to them or if she still bore grudges against them. The fact that she was the eldest daughter of the Yan Family couldn"t be erased. Once she married into the Yin Family, the Yan Family and the Yin Family would become in-laws.
Just with this relations.h.i.+p alone, he could gain a lot of benefits.
Initially, he thought that if Yun"er didn"t succeed, he wouldn"t lose out as a father by letting his eldest daughter stay by Master Nine"s side. Now, his thoughts weren"t too different from the one before, he only had to try his best to let his eldest daughter feel his goodwill during this process.
"Do as Missy says."
Fu Ya frowned in disapproval. "Qingyu!"
Yan Qingyu glared at her. "It"s just some yogurt. Can"t our Yan family afford it? Fu Ya, Jinyu is our daughter too!"
Of course, she knew that she was their daughter. She just couldn"t like this girl! But she really didn"t dare to disobey Yan Qingyu"s words.
She was a rich lady who had to rely on Yan Qingyu to survive.
"Forget it, I don"t care anymore. You can do whatever you want!" She stood up and left angrily. However, this time, she didn"t dare to give Yan Jinyu any att.i.tude before she left.
Fu Ya still had some lingering feelings about the inexplicable fear that Yan Jinyu gave her just now.
Yan Qingyu ignored Fu Ya and took out a card from his bag. "Take this card. Since you"re going to Yun"er"s birthday party, you can"t be too shabby. Pick a nice dress and buy a present. I didn"t give you any compensation after you returned to the Yan Family. so buy whatever you like."
Yan Jinyun, who had changed into a long white dress and carried a small bag downstairs, saw Yan Qingyu pa.s.sing the card to Yan Jinyu.
She clenched her fists tightly.
How did things become like this when she had only gone upstairs for a short while?
Her father actually gave that card to Yan Jinyu! If she remembered correctly, there were at least three million dollars in this card. He didn"t give it to her the last time she asked her father for it. Now, he actually gave it to Yan Jinyu!
What was Daddy doing? Didn"t Daddy say in the study that night that he would prioritize her?
Giving Yan Jinyu the card that he wasn"t willing to give her was prioritizing her first?
With her last hesitation gone, Yan Jinyun sent out a message.
Yan Jinyu looked at the card Yan Qingyu handed over and pointed at herself. "Are you giving it to me?"
"Of course it"s for you. I haven"t given you anything since you came home. I don"t know what you young ladies like, so you shall go buy it yourself."
After hearing what he said, Yan Jinyu tsked twice in her heart. Her father was really smart. She had only lost control of her killing intent for a moment, and he had already reacted so quickly.
It was indeed a good move to bribe her.
However, she didn"t even want Yin Jiujin"s black card and 13% of the Yan Corporation"s shares. How could she accept his card?
She had always been very clear about how she treated people. She would return the favor given to her tenfold. She didn"t want to have anything to do with the Yan Corporation and naturally she wouldn"t want to owe her parents anything.
As for why she didn"t reject the money Yin Jiujin had transferred to her phone after she declined Yin Jiujin"s black card. It was because she had acknowledged Yin Jiujin as her fiancé. To her, Yin Jiujin was different from others. Furthermore, she would stay by Yin Jiujin"s side in the future and protect him. With her status, she deserved to be paid far more than this bit of money as his bodyguard.
She had no qualms about taking the money Yin Jiujin had given her.
"There"s no need to. Brother Nine transferred some money to me before he left. It"s enough to support my expenses."
Yan Qingyu"s smile faltered. "What Master Nine gave you is different from what I gave you. Take it first. You keep it for future use if you can"t use it now." He then felt that something was amiss. His daughter called Yin Jiujin as Brother Nine, but he called him Master Nine…
However, even though he felt that something was amiss, he didn"t dare to address Yin Jiujin by his name.
"There"s no need. I can owe Brother Nine because I will pay him back, but I can"t owe you."
Yan Qingyu"s face stiffened. For a moment, he felt upset, "What are you saying? I"m your father. Is it appropriate to say that you owe me?"
Yan Jinyu smiled without saying a word.
Yan Qingyu suddenly blushed.
He remembered his att.i.tude towards Yan Jinyu when she first returned to the Yan family a week ago, as well as his discussion with his wife and daughter in the study about how to use her as a stepping stone.
"You rather take what outsiders give you but not what I give you?"
"I already said, I"ll return Brother Nine"s favor."
"You can also return what you took from me…" Yan Qingyu suddenly paused.
He had ulterior motives for treating her so nicely all of a sudden, so wasn"t it obvious that he was actually telling her his plan now?
Yan Jinyu looked at him with a smile as though she didn"t hear what he said, "I appreciate Dad"s good intentions. Now that I don"t have to worry about food and clothes, there"s nothing I want to buy."
"Sister, Daddy gave it to you. Just accept it. We"re family, why are you being so polite?"
Yan Jinyu turned to Yan Jinyun, "Can we leave now?"
"Ah? Of course." She smiled gently, "Sister, let"s go."
"Wait a minute."
Yan Jinyun stopped, "Daddy, is there anything else?"
"Since your sister is unwilling to accept it, you can help her keep it first. Whatever your sister wants to buy, you can buy it for her."
A cold glint flashed across Yan Jinyun"s eyes. She took it with a gentle smile. "Okay, Dad. Don"t worry, I know what to do."
"Mm-hmm, you"ve always been sensible. I don"t have to worry about you." Yan Qingyu looked relieved. However, he didn"t see Yan Jinyun"s expression change after she turned around.
Yan Qingyu didn"t see it, but Yan Jinyu did. Even though Yan Jinyun thought that she was able to suppress her emotions very quickly and still smiled graciously and appropriately.
Yan Jinyu raised her eyebrows in silence.
And then she walked out.
