Cheng Lin stayed behind to clean up the scene while Yin Jiujin and Yan Jinyu drove back to Mount Jing.
On the way back, Yan Jinyu, who was sitting in the front passenger seat, kept glancing at Yin Jiujin, who was driving.
In the beginning, Yin Jiujin could barely ignore her gaze, but she had been stealing glances at him along the way. Yin Jiujin finally couldnât help but look at her and ask, âWhy are you staring at me? Do you have something to say?â
âBrother Nine.â
The two of them had just kissed so intimately not long ago. Now that the young lady was staring at him with her round eyes, he almost couldnât take it.
He looked away slightly. âJust say it.â
âI realize that youâre a good medicine.â
Yin Jiujin was stunned as he looked at her.
However, Yan Jinyu didnât explain further. She only chuckled and said, âNothing, nothing.â
Whenever she could not control her frustration, she had to drink yogurt or vent it out to suppress it. However, every time she saw blood, she hated the smell of blood and needed to drink yogurt to suppress the disgusting smell of blood.
Hence, she still had to drink yogurt no matter what.
She had seen blood earlier, but there was no yogurt beside her, so she couldnât suppress the nausea. At that moment, she saw Yin Jiujinâs⦠lips.
Without thinking, she jumped up and kissed him.
Indeed, just as she had expected, the nausea disappeared after kissing him.
That was why she said that he was a good medicine.
In that case, she could try to kiss him when she is frustrated in the future. Perhaps, she wouldnât have to drink yogurt anymore?
To be honest, she was actually a little tired of drinking yogurt. However, she had always drunk it like that, so it had become a habit.
After all, if Yin Jiujinâs kiss could even suppress her frustration, didnât that mean that once she was frustrated, she could just kiss him?
She couldnât bring yogurt with her every moment, but she could always accompany Yin Jiujin.
Anyway, ever since she acknowledged him as her fiancé, she had planned to protect him and not wander around aimlessly anymore.
Seeing that she wasnât saying anything, Yin Jiujin didnât have any intention of pursuing the matter. However, when he saw that she was smiling foolishly again, his eyes couldnât help but curve into a smile.
âBrother Nine, do you still have anything to ask me?â
Yin Jiujin looked at her. âAre you willing to tell me?â
Yan Jinyu blinked and smiled at him. âIâll tell you as long as you ask. Of course, Iâll only tell you.â
Yin Jiujin was taken aback.
However, his lips curled up slightly.
This girl was saying something he liked to hear again.
âYouâ¦â He didnât continue, but his gaze moved to her left wrist.
Yan Jinyu quickly understood what he meant. She waved the âwatchâ on her wrist. âOh, thereâs nothing wrong with saying that this is second-hand goods. However, this isnât second-hand goods that others assembled. I assembled it myself. As for its value, most of the materials here are things that you might not be able to buy even if you have the money. Of course, itâs worth for more than 10 dollars.â
ââ¦â Yin Jiujin.
âBrother Nine should have seen the golden thread that flew out from it just earlier. Thatâs my killing weapon. I donât remember how many people Iâve killed with it.â
Yin Jiujinâs heart skipped a beat. He didnât like her smiling like that.
It was heartbreaking.
âBrother Nine, do you think Iâm very cruel and heartless?â
Yan Jinyu didnât realize that although her expression was normal, her right hand that was on her lap instinctively clenched into a fist when she asked this question.
Even she herself didnât know that, she was afraid that Yin Jiujin would think that she was cruel deep in her heart.
Or rather, she was afraid that Yin Jiujin would choose to stay away from her after he felt that she was cruel.
In the three years since she destroyed Ghost Slaughter Island, Yan Jinyu had always been very confused. She didnât want to die, but she didnât know what she was living for.
She was like a zombie.
She only felt alive when she met Yin Jiujin and acknowledged him as her fiancé.
Yin Jiujin didnât hesitate at all. âNo.â
âIf you donât kill others, others will come and kill you. Youâre right.â He didnât care about the life and death of others. He only cared if his little girl was safe.
âAll these yearsâ¦â After a pause, Yin Jiujin asked,â Itâs been hard on you, right? âAfter asking, his grip on the steering wheel couldnât help but tighten.
They had been engaged since they were very young. Why didnât he look for her in the early years?
If he had gone to look for her earlier and brought her back earlier to take care of her, she would have suffered less.
He blamed himself and regretted it.
Actually, Yin Jiujin was only thinking so much because he was interested in Yan Jinyu.
In reality, he wasnât a very warm-hearted person. Otherwise, he wouldnât be so indifferent to the Yin Family. Moreover, although he and Yan Jinyu were engaged, he was only seven years old when their engagement was set and Yan Jinyu was only one years old. He had never met Yan Jinyu. He hadnât even seen Yan Jinyu when she was young.
There was no relationship between them, and coupled with his personality, it was normal for him to not look for Yan Jinyu. There was no need for him to blame himself for this.
Hearing that, Yan Jinyu paused, and the smile on her face froze.
Then, she returned to normal and said, âItâs not hard.â
She had matured early and her brain was really good. Learning things was much easier than others, so compared to others, she really didnât have it hard.
Afraid that Yin Jiujin wouldnât believe her, she emphasized again, âItâs really not hard!â
Yin Jiujin naturally didnât believe her. If it wasnât hard, where did her skills come from? Where did her calluses come from when he first met her?
Fortunately, her hands had slowly recovered. They looked much better now. She would probably have a pair of slender and fair hands in a year or so.
He stared at her without saying a word.
He made Yan Jinyu feel a little uncomfortable with his staring. Her gaze drifted away. âAiya, letâs not talk about this anymore. Brother Nine, look at this watch of mine. Itâs not only a fast watch, but itâs also my murder weapon and communication device⦠Itâs used to contact Little Rain and the rest.â
Yin Jiujin was a smart person. Since he already knew her identity, he naturally could guess Little Rainâs identity.
Hearing Yan Jinyu mention Huo Siyu, Yin Jiujin suddenly recalled what Huo Siyu had said about Yan Jinyuâs psychological trauma.
He didnât know how her psychological trauma came about, but he could roughly guess now.
âBrother Nine, you gave me a ring that you personally polished. Why donât I polish one for you too? And assemble a separate communication device just for you and me?â
âYou polished the ring for me, so I wonât touch it. I can modify this watch myself on the second try. Brother Nine, do you thinkâ¦â
Before she could finish speaking, her voice suddenly stopped because she met Yin Jiujinâs faint gaze.
âYou⦠know?â Yan Jinyu only realized that she had let it slip when he hesitated.
When Yin Jiujin made the ring for her as a birthday present, she knew that he had personally polished the ring. However, since he didnât want her to know, she would follow his wishes and pretend not to knowâ¦
She didnât expect that she would suddenly let it slip!
Was she such a negligent person in the past?
Yan Jinyu thought for a moment and shook her head.
Not really.
If she was a negligent person, she would have died countless times.
Then why was sheâ¦
Forget it. She had already let it slip. Letâs leave it at that.
It did not seem to be a bad idea to let him know that she had actually understood his intentions and planned to return him with the same favor.
âI know.â Her eyes curved into crescents. âI realized it the day Brother Nine gave me the gift. You even specially carved two letters on the inside of the ring and I found them.â
Yin Jiujinâs expression suddenly turned a little unnatural.
She even found such tiny lettersâ¦
Alright, he had almost forgotten that she wasnât only his girl, but she was also the number one killer, âChiâ. It seemed normal for her to have such a perception.
On the other hand, he did not feel anything when he had that thought. Now that she had pointed it out, he actually felt a little embarrassed.
He was like a young boy who had never been in love before and had thoughts of preparing a gift for the girl he liked.
Yin Jiujinâs unnaturalness wasnât obvious, and Yan Jinyuâs thoughts were elsewhere, so she didnât notice it. She continued, âHow about I polish a ring for you too? Iâll put your communication device in it. We can still talk even if you donât bring your phone out in the future.â
Yin Jiujinâs thoughts stirred. âAlright.â
He was tempted to have communication devices that belonged to the two of them alone, and even more tempted when she said she wanted to polish his ring personally.
Polishing a ring with a communication device assembled in it was much more difficult than simply polishing a ring.
The young lady was very concerned about him.
This pleased him.
âThen you might have to wait a while. I donât have any raw materials with me. I have to get them over here from somewhere else.â
âMm-hm,â Yin Jiujin said. âThereâs no hurry. Take your time. Donât hurt your hand.â
âBrother Nine, donât worry. Iâm very formidable. I definitely wonât hurt myself.â As she spoke, she looked up at him with a serious expression. âBrother Nine, speaking of which, after seeing me make a move today, you should know that Iâm really formidable. Iâm not boasting, right?â
Yin Jiujin chuckled. âYes, very formidable.â
âYouâre patronizing me!â She glared at him again.
âHmph, itâs fine even if you donât admit that Iâm good. Itâs fine as long as I know that Iâm good. Anyway, Iâm completely qualified to be your bodyguard and protect you. After I became famous, whenever I made a move, the price was above 50 million. I donât even ask you for a salary. I just want you to take care of my meals!â
Yin Jiujin looked at her with a smile. âDidnât someone say that there was only 1000 dollars in your card?â
Yan Jinyu, ââ¦Youâre still bringing up old scores. Stingy!â
She changed the topic. âBrother Nine, donât interfere with the killerâs matter today. Iâll handle it myself.â
âYou really donât need me to interfere?â
âThereâs really no need for that. Brother Nine, just do your own thing. I have other plans for this.â
Yin Jiujin didnât ask further and nodded. âAlright.â
As the two of them chatted, they arrived at Mount Jing.
As soon as the car arrived at Mount Jing, they saw a car parked outside the manor.
Yan Jinyu couldnât see the person in the car, so she didnât know who it was. Yin Jiujin, who had seen the car, knew.
The car drove forward, and the two cars were side by side. Yin Jiujin rolled down the window, and the other party also rolled down the window.
A man in his forties was sitting in the driverâs seat. When he saw Yin Jiujin, he said respectfully, âSecond Young Master.ân/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
âSince youâre here, why donât you go in? Canât you enter the main door of Mount Jing?â Yin Jiujinâs tone didnât reveal his emotions.
âOld Master found out that Second Young Master is not back yet, so he waited here first.â
