Chapter 307 - Unfathomable Intentions
Yan Jinyun and Feng Yuan felt uncomfortable when Tan s.h.i.+yun said that. They were even a little puzzled.
After being cla.s.smates for three years, Tan s.h.i.+yun didn"t seem to be such a straightforward person. Why was she…
Compared to them, Yan Jinyu was much calmer. She smiled and said, "The rumors can"t be trusted completely."
Lowering her voice so that only a few of them could hear, she said, "When I just returned to North City, there were even rumors that I was a country b.u.mpkin who was unpresentable. Look at me now. Do I look like a country b.u.mpkin? I wonder who spread those rumors and deliberately damaged my reputation."
Wasn"t she implying that Yan Jinyun was the one who had spread these rumors?
Yan Jinyun and Feng Yuan were stunned at the same time.
However, they could also tell that Yan Jinyu had deliberately lowered her voice so that not many people could hear her.
It seemed like she said it on purpose for someone to misunderstand?
Who was it for?
Yan Jinyun and Feng Yuan glanced at the people who might have heard Yan Jinyu"s voice.
She couldn"t tell who it was at all, but there were a few familiar faces.
For example, on their left stood the Luo siblings, Xu Gui, and the two girls in cla.s.s who were closer to Luo Qiu. On their right stood Zhao Yue and the girls in their cla.s.s. Behind them were Yuan Xi and… Bo Lang.
Bo Lang was also here?
However, Bo Lang was far away so he probably couldn"t hear them.
Then, who was Yan Jinyu saying it for?
Zhao Yue sneered inwardly.
A dogfight. Both Yan Jinyun and Yan Jinyu aren"t good people!
Yan Jinyun was also a fool. She went forward to pretend to be a good sister, but she didn"t know that others would pin the blame on her with just a few words.
Yan Jinyun didn"t seem to understand the meaning in Yan Jinyu"s words at all.
What else could she be but an idiot?
Tan s.h.i.+yun looked surprised. "No wonder I heard such a rumor. When I saw Student Yan Jinyu in the cla.s.sroom today, I was lamenting that her looks and temperament are completely inconsistent with the rumors. I didn"t expect the rumors to be fake."
Yan Jinyu blinked, looking a little playful. "It"s not entirely fake either."
She held the tray with one hand and opened it with the other. She handed her palm to Tan s.h.i.+yun, "Do you see my hand? Can you still see the not obvious calluses?"
Tan s.h.i.+yun nodded.
Yan Jinyu retracted her hand. "Actually, this is already very good. A few months ago, when Brother Nine went to the orphanage to pick me up, my hands were full of calluses because I worked too much. You couldn"t even look at them."
"At that time, my clothes were old and I didn"t have much money on me. I used a Nokia phone and the phone screen was shattered. It"s quite appropriate to call me a country b.u.mpkin, but…"
"It"s just that my news is too well-known in North City. Almost everyone knows my past and experiences. I don"t believe that no one tampered with it. Besides, even if I"m really old-fas.h.i.+oned, I"m not that bad as the rumors say, right?"
"It"s obvious that someone is deliberately defaming me behind my back so that my parents won"t like me when I return to the Yan Family. Look, I haven"t even stayed in the Yan Family for a few days before I can"t stay anymore."
Luo Qiu, who had seen Yan Jinyu make a move in the capital"s Min Family, grimaced.
Luo Yikun simply watched the show in silence.
"Eldest Miss Yan, you said that someone is deliberately defaming you. Then, do you know who is defaming you?" Zhao Yue asked.
It seemed like she didn"t dare to offend Yan Jinyu too openly. Seeing that Yan Jinyu was whispering, she also lowered her voice.
However, it was enough for Yan Jinyu and Yan Jinyun to hear.
Zhao Yue snorted inwardly. She was deliberately trying to drive a wedge between them!
It was hard to tell that she was trying to drive a wedge between them. People would think that she was just curious. This was her plan.
Yan Jinyu looked at her. "How would I know?"
Zhao Yue inexplicably felt like she was being stared at by an evil spirit in her smiling eyes. She couldn"t help but s.h.i.+ver.
"I"m joking. Of course, I don"t know who it is."
"How could anyone spread rumors about me and damage my reputation? When I returned to North City back then, everyone was naturally curious about me when they found out that I was Yin Jiujin"s fiancée and that Yin Jiujin had searched for me for three years before personally picking me up."
"After all, Yin Jiujin has quite the influence in North City and even the capital."
"They"re curious about me. They"ll naturally know my background after investigating again. It"s just that the things they found are rather one-sided and not so accurate."
"I was really a country b.u.mpkin in the past. It"s like this now after Yin Jiujin hired many etiquette teachers to teach me. Otherwise, Yin Jiujin wouldn"t have brought me to Mount Jing for more than half a year and only sent me to school now."
She only said that Yin Jiujin had sent her to school to continue her studies. She didn"t mention the Yan Family. In other words, she didn"t deny the rumors that the Yan Family didn"t send her to school to continue her studies?
Whether it was someone like Luo Yikun who knew her ident.i.ty or someone like Zhao Yue who didn"t know her ident.i.ty, Yan Jinyu"s credibility of severing ties with the Yan Family was even higher.
Everyone had different thoughts, but Yan Jinyun felt the most complicated.
About how her parents neglected Yan Jinyu"s studies, and also about how she also spouted nonsense.
Why did they only send Yan Jinyu to school now? It was clearly Yan Jinyu who didn"t want to come.
However, at the same time, she was very disappointed by her parents" ruthlessness towards Yan Jinyu.
However, even Luo Yikun, who knew her ident.i.ty, couldn"t see through Yan Jinyu"s intentions.
Ever since he met Yan Jinyu, Luo Yikun felt that he knew her quite well. She wasn"t someone who liked to joke at all, nor was she someone who knew how to talk a lot of nonsense.
But now, not only was she joking, but she was also saying a lot of nonsense.
This was already very abnormal.
Tan s.h.i.+yun smiled awkwardly, as if she didn"t know how to respond to Yan Jinyu"s words. She hesitated for a moment before saying, "Yan Jinyu is really humorous."
"Right? I actually think so too."
"…" Tan s.h.i.+yun.
"Speaking of the rumors about Eldest Miss Yan, I suddenly remembered that Eldest Miss Yan"s racing skills are very good. Others don"t seem to have found out about this."
A few pairs of eyes looked at Zhao Yue at the same time.
Yan Jinyun"s eyes turned cold.
There was a smile in Yan Jinyu"s eyes.
The others… had complicated expressions.
How should they put it? It was like they were looking at an idiot.
Many people knew what happened at the underground racing arena that day.
Because it was the weekend that day, Boyu High School did not have cla.s.ses and most of the students in Boyu High School were from big families.
If they didn"t have to go to cla.s.s, how many of them would obediently study in school?
The largest underground racing arena in North City was one of the most frequented places for the rich kids in North City. Furthermore, it was Luo Yikun"s event that day, so naturally, many rich kids from the same school were invited.
Everyone knew that the owner of the underground racing arena had given the order not to spread what had happened that day.
Zhao Yue actually dared…
Zhao Yue was even sent to the hospital by Yan Jinyu for a long time. She actually dared to find trouble with Yan Jinyu again. If she wasn"t an idiot, what was she?
Being stared at by so many people, Zhao Yue"s heart turned cold. When she met Yan Jinyu"s smiling eyes, a chill spread to her limbs.
The bones that were reconnected were aching again.
She didn"t forget the scene where Yan Jinyu drove over recklessly! She didn"t forget the words Yan Jinyu specially rushed over to warn them after their car was destroyed! She didn"t forget the fate of the Qiu Family in the capital!
She almost…
She was only concerned about venting the anger, but she had forgotten that this was someone she could not provoke at all! Even if she wanted to deal with her, she had to be careful!
Feng Yuan sneered, "Zhao Yue, you"re very bold."
"Eldest Miss Zhao, are you… missing it? Do you want to compete again?" Yan Jinyu smiled.
"No, no, no. No, no. I just suddenly thought of that matter and mentioned it. I didn"t mean anything else."
"Mentioned it? Miss Zhao, don"t you know that the news that day was ordered not to be spread?" Huo Xuan was the one who did this. Although she had never mentioned it to Huo Xuan, it didn"t mean that she had forgotten about it.
As for Huo Xuan"s intentions, although she didn"t know, she had roughly guessed it.
It was harmless.
"It"s best if you really don"t have any other intentions."
"Zhao Yue, you"re considered someone who has been taught a lesson. You should know my temper. I didn"t go to settle the score with you because I didn"t take you seriously. Don"t make your presence known in front of me again. Otherwise, I"ll settle the old and new debts together. You and your Zhao Family probably won"t be able to take it."
"After all, I have a backer."
"I don"t think I need to introduce Brother Nine, right? He"s much more ruthless than me."
Not only Zhao Yue, the party concerned, but many people who heard Yan Jinyu"s words instinctively shuddered.
Master Nine…
Who could afford to provoke them?
"I-I"m sorry. I really didn"t mean anything else. Miss Yan, please don"t take it to heart."
Seeing Zhao Yue"s terrified expression, Yan Jinyu sneered.
Seriously, these people had to be frightened to know their place.
She was doing serious business here. Why was she interrupting?
Fortunately, she had almost achieved her goal.
She smiled harmlessly. "Don"t be nervous. I"m just scaring you. I"m someone without a family to rely on now. How would I dare to be too arrogant in front of Brother Nine? What if he finds my matters too troublesome and doesn"t want me anymore? Who should I cry to?"
"Actually, if you really want to know why I don"t even know how to drive and why I know how to race based on the information that everyone has found about me, I can tell you that my driving skills are not bad."
"What else could it be? I"m talented."
"…" Zhao Yue.
"…" The others.
"After I returned to the Yan Family, Brother Nine"s people brought me to play twice before I learned it. Am I very talented?"
Luo Yikun, Yan Jinyun, and Feng Yuan were all speechless.
Tan s.h.i.+yun, who was standing behind Yan Jinyu, also forced a smile.
Zhao Yue"s face stiffened. "You"re indeed very talented." She gritted her teeth but didn"t dare to show it too obviously. She looked very awkward.
After that, no one said anything.
Yan Jinyun had reached the front of the line.
Feng Yuan automatically retreated and let Yan Jinyu go first.
Then, Yan Jinyun introduced the dishes that suited her taste according to what she said earlier. Yan Jinyu ordered three dishes and a soup.
The few of them found a seat and sat down.
The long table of ten was almost full.
There were four people in Yan Jinyu"s group, three in Luo Yikun"s group, and nine in total, including Yuan Xi and Bo Lang.
No one said anything. The atmosphere was very subtle.
It was fine with Luo Yikun and the other two. After all, with Xu Gui around, they were considered one of them. Yuan Xi and Bo Lang, these two reclusive people, actually sat over to share a table. It was a little…
In short, not only them, but the others who were eating in the canteen were also shocked when they saw this scene.
At this moment, the person who was the least likely to speak first broke the subtle atmosphere.
Sitting at the very edge, there were two seats away from Yan Jinyu.. Bo Lang, who was considered to be sitting opposite Yan Jinyu, suddenly looked up at her. "Eldest Miss Yan, how does Boyu High School"s food taste?"
