Chapter 466: A Call For Help
Lind Jones’s lips twitched imperceptibly when he heard that.
His gaze at Yan Jinyu was filled with interest again.
He stared at Yan Jinyu.
The person behind him was pus.h.i.+ng the wheelchair. They did not know if it was intentional or not, but when his hand touched his shoulder, his uncontrollable excitement slowly faded.
He turned back to look at the person and smiled.
He seemed to be saying that it was a habit to be excited when he saw something that interested him.
The masked man glanced at him and said nothing.
Yan Jinyu naturally saw their interaction.
However, Yan Jinyu didn’t say anything.
“Mr. Jones is still here. Could it be that you were abandoned by Liu Guang?” Almost everyone in the dark had been dealt with by Min Rufeng and Xi Fengling. The two of them slowly walked over.
It was Xi Fengling who said that.
Her beautiful face, charming posture, and slightly mocking tone.
Even though she was 80% sure that Lind Jones wasn’t their enemy, Xi Fengling still didn’t like him.
Whenever she thought about how Yan Jinyu was almost injured by Lind Jones, Xi Fengling wished she could rush over and beat him up.
“Abandoned?” Lind Jones didn’t seem to care much about Xi Fengling’s att.i.tude towards him. He raised his eyebrows at her. “Miss Xi, don’t you think that the word is inappropriate?”
“Regardless of whether it’s appropriate or not, isn’t Mr. Jones being left behind by Liu Guang alone here? Mr. Jones still dares to appear so openly. Aren’t you afraid of death?”
“Of course I’m afraid of death. Who wouldn’t be afraid of death? It’s just that it can’t be helped. I’m seriously injured and can’t move easily. The power in my hand has been s.n.a.t.c.hed away, and it’s impossible for Mr. Liu to bring me along everywhere. After all, we’re only in a cooperative relations.h.i.+p. Mr. Liu doesn’t completely trust me. There are naturally some things that he won’t let me know.”
Lind Jones said these words indifferently as if he didn’t care much about them.
“Unfortunately, you guys came late. If you came earlier, you might have met Mr. Liu.”
“Speaking of which, Mr. Liu has always said that the Yu Family is very safe and not so easy to be discovered. Now, it seems like that’s not the case. We haven’t lived here for long before you came looking for us.”
“However, Mr. Liu didn’t bring me along when he went out. He even left so many people to guard here. It’s obvious that even if he left, he would still come back. If you can wait patiently, Mr. Liu might come back shortly.”
No one said anything. The three of them waited for Yan Jinyu to speak.
Yan Jinyu looked at Lind Jones mysteriously and smiled. “Since Mr. Jones has said so, we shall wait then.”
“Perfect. Someone’s here to relieve my boredom.”
As soon as he finished speaking, there was a commotion.
Yu Chen went to look for Yu Quan and told him about the situation here. Yu Quan led a group of people with flashlights and came over.
Seeing the two corpses lying outside the courtyard, Yu Quan turned back and looked at Yu Chen—who was hiding in the crowd—unhappily, “You said that thieves had sneaked in. Why didn’t you tell me the situation here in detail? Can ordinary thieves do that?”
Yu Quan’s displeasure was built on fear and uneasiness.
He tried his best to maintain his composure, but he was actually already extremely fl.u.s.tered.
Yu Quan knew very well what Liu Guang’s ident.i.ty was.
Yu Quan knew very well what enemies Liu Guang had.
Yu Quan knew how skilled the people Liu Guang arranged to guard the courtyard were.
Two such skilled people were shot in the glabella and killed!
How could he not panic?
“G-Grandfather, no… I didn’t know that this was the situation at all. I saw the thieves hiding in the distance but I didn’t dare to look at them closely at all as I was afraid that they would discover me. I only had the chance to slip away when they weren’t paying attention. I only wanted to not be discovered by them. I didn’t dare to turn back to see what exactly happened.”
“Grandfather, now isn’t the time to pursue this. It’s been almost 20 minutes since I went to report to you. I wonder how the courtyard is doing. Didn’t you say that there’s an important guest living inside? If anything happens to the important guest…”
Yu Quan glared at her. If anything happens to the important guest?
The guests were not in the courtyard at all. They were the ones who were in trouble!
If he had known that they were not ordinary thieves, he would not have run over so rashly and even brought his son, daughter-in-law, and grandchildren.
Other than them, he only brought a few trusted servants and bodyguards.
If it was the people he thought of, what was the use of them?
They were completely no match for the other party!
“Since you know that the guests living here are important guests, why are you still loitering around? Are you ignoring my words? It’s fine if you didn’t listen to the warning and wandered around here, but if you see someone sneaking in, can’t you observe who the other party is? You called us over without knowing the other party’s ident.i.ty. Do you want us to die with you?”
“Why would our Yu Family have an idiot like you!”
Yu Chen was naturally indignant after being scolded by him.
However, she did not dare to say anything.
She was afraid that Yu Quan knew that it was very likely related to her that those people appeared in the Yu Family at this time.
Her grandfather was already so angry when she didn’t tell him the situation here in detail. If he knew that she had told Min Rufeng about the guests at home, wouldn’t his grandfather kill her?
“Grandfather is right. I was stupid, but I was really too afraid at that time. Grandfather can punish me however you want after this matter. The most important thing now is to check the situation in the courtyard so that nothing happens to the esteemed guest.”
Yu Quan was about to say that they should protect themselves first instead of checking out the situation when a middle-aged man at the side said, “Dad, Chen’er is right. We’ll talk about it in the future. The most important thing now is to ensure the safety of our esteemed guests. I know that Sir isn’t in the courtyard, but don’t forget that there’s another esteemed guest who hasn’t left with Sir.”
“If that esteemed guest gets into trouble in the Yu Family, we will also be in big trouble. Even Sir doesn’t dare to offend that esteemed guest too much. I’m just afraid that his family will take revenge.”
The middle-aged man who spoke was Yu Chen’s father, Yu Kuan. He had a son, Yu Ming who was also Yu Chen’s brother.
In the evening, Liu Guang left with Feng Yun and Hei Yao, leaving Lind Jones behind. Other than Yu Chen, everyone in the Yu Family knew that they would come back after finis.h.i.+ng their work.
The others here were Yu Quan, Yu Kuan, and Yu Ming.
Of course, Yu Quan knew that the Yu Family would be in big trouble if Lind Jones got into trouble in the Yu Family’s residence. Therefore, no matter how afraid he was, he forced himself not to leave immediately.
“Do I need you to teach me how to do things?”
He looked at Yu Ming, “Call Luo Yikun. It’s time for him to return the favor to our Yu Family!”
Luo Yikun?
Yu Chen was puzzled.
Was he the hedonistic Second Young Master of the Luo Family in North City?
Wasn’t he Luo Qiu’s cousin? When did he owe the Yu Family a favor?
Also, what was the point of calling him over? Could it be that he could still fight against Yan Jinyu and the other three?
He was a hedonistic son. He was a hedonistic son who did nothing but flirting with women all day. He even wanted to seduce her. It was disgusting.
What could he do?
“Grandfather, Luo Yikun… is Qiu’s cousin? The one who came to the Yu Family as a guest this year?”
Yu Quan glanced at her coldly and ignored her. He instructed Yu Ming to make the call quickly.
Yu Chen naturally sensed Yu Quan’s anger, but her curiosity overcame her fear and she continued on, “But Grandfather, even if Luo Yikun is capable, isn’t he in North City now? Even if you call him, he can’t rush over immediately. What’s the use?”
After saying that, Yu Quan stared at her. He seemed to be even angrier than before.
“G-Grandfather, what’s wrong with what I said?”
“So, did you ignore me when I asked you to pay attention to Luo Qiu and Luo Yikun and keep in contact with them? You don’t even know that they got into the Imperial Capital University and are students of the Imperial Capital University now?”
Yu Chen was stunned.
She had long forgotten his instructions.
She looked down on people from small families like Luo Qiu and Luo Yikun and disdained to keep in contact with them.
At first, she wanted to matchmake Min Sisi and Luo Yikun so that Min Sisi could put in a good word for her in front of Min Rufeng on account of Luo Yikun’s relations.h.i.+p with the Yu Family. Unexpectedly, something happened to the Min Family later.
After knowing that Min Sisi was not the legitimate daughter of the Min Family at all, she no longer had such thoughts.
She knew that Min Sisi, as an illegitimate daughter, was even less important to Min Rufeng.
This way, it was even less likely for her to contact the Luo siblings.
Of course, she couldn’t say that out loud. “…Grandfather, you also know that I was recuperating some time ago. I’ve just recovered recently, but I still can’t go to work on time every day. How can I care about anything else? Naturally, I don’t have much contact with them either.”
“On the other hand, did they really get into the Imperial Capital University? They’re really outstanding.”
It was possible for Luo Qiu to go to the Imperial Capital University, but Luo Yikun?
Ha, that second-generation heir Luo Yikun?
He probably got in through connections even if he managed to study at the Imperial Capital University.
Yu Quan looked at Yu Chen and his frown deepened, “Chen’er, you’ve disappointed Grandfather too much.”
Yu Chen’s heart skipped a beat and she suddenly felt very uneasy.
What did Grandfather mean?
Although her grandfather was strict with her, he was still good to her.
He had never looked at her as if she was an abandoned p.a.w.n.
Abandoned p.a.w.n?!
Yu Chen’s heart skipped a beat when she thought of those words.
The prerequisite for her being an abandoned p.a.w.n was her being a chess piece first. Could it be that her grandfather had never treated her as a granddaughter but a chess piece?
Impossible!
However, even Yu Ming knew that the guests were at home. She was more outstanding than Yu Ming ever since she was young, but her grandfather didn’t let her know…
The more she thought about it, the more shocked she became.
Just as Yu Chen was shocked, Yu Ming made the call.
At that moment, Luo Yikun was drinking with a group of people in the bar.
This was the beginning of his nightlife.
And these people were Luo Yikun’s new acquaintances after he went to university.
To be honest, they were not people he knew. They were people that Xu Gui knew.
They were mostly Xu Gui’s cla.s.smates.
He often hung out with Xu Gui, so he naturally knew these people.
Xu Gui was stunned when he received the admission notice from the Imperial Capital University.
He felt that it was a free lunch and quickly took the notice to ask his parents if the Xu Family had struck it rich. Why were their connections so powerful? He could even get the admission notice with such bad results.
Although the Imperial Capital University’s Art College was only a very unpopular major, it was still the Imperial Capital University!
However, his parents were even more stunned than him..
