Chapter 297: Chapter 297 - Returning To The Yan Family

Yan Jinyun was originally in a good mood, but when she heard her words, her good mood completely disappeared.

“Are you leaving just as Sister arrived? Why? Do you not like her that much? No matter what, Sister and I are your biological children. Sister is your daughter, not your enemy!”

“Sister doesn’t even live in the Yan Family anymore. She only came back once now, but you don’t like her that much? Other people’s daughters who have been married will come home for the new year too. Even if their parents don’t like them, they will still meet them. Sister isn’t married yet!”

“Not to mention Sister, Master Nine personally came to visit. Why are you turning around and leaving like this? Are you giving Master Nine a hard time?”

“Mom, don’t you know what Master Nine means in North City? Go out and ask around. Which business family doesn’t want to hook up with Master Nine? Others think of ways to meet him whom they can’t even get to meet, but you just don’t want to meet him. Do you think that our Yan Family’s business is so big that we can be condescending?”

“Destroying the Yan Family is just a matter of words to Master Nine. Have you been a wealthy lady for too long and have become arrogant?”

“Not to mention North City, even in the capital, no one would dare to give Master Nine such an attitude. Mom, you’re really capable. You want to be that number one person!”

“If the Yan Family offends Master Nine, not to mention having money to continue playing cards, it would be good enough for you to even live on the streets.”

Yan Jinyun’s gaze was a little sharp. In addition, what she said frightened Fu Ya.

“I-I simply don’t know how to face Jinyu. I didn’t think too much about it. I don’t have any intention of neglecting Master Nine either. It’s just that…”

“You also know why Jinyu left the Yan Family. I’m afraid that if she sees me again, she’ll remember what happened on the day of your coming-of-age ceremony and come back to settle the score with the Yan Family.”

“It’s good that Mom still remembers how Sister left the Yan Family. So, since Mom knows and still knows how to avoid it, I think you’ve realized your mistake. Shouldn’t you apologize to Sister in person?”

Say sorry to that wild girl?!

Fu Ya was furious and almost couldn’t help but say the words in her heart. She only retracted her words when she saw Yan Jinyun’s cold face.

Fu Ya didn’t forget that she still had to curry favor with Yan Jinyun.

She went out to play cards every day and even asked Yan Jinyun to give her money.

She didn’t dare to anger Yan Jinyun now.

Seeing her unwilling look, Yan Jinyun was suddenly extremely disappointed.

“Forget it. Mom can go wherever you want.” Perhaps she would make Yan Jinyu feel uncomfortable if she stayed here.

Hearing her say that, Fu Ya’s eyes lit up. Then, she said, “Then the money for playing cards…”

Before she could finish speaking, she was interrupted, “You only know how to play cards all day. Don’t you know how to stop on the first day of the new year?” Yan Qingyu came downstairs.

He glanced at Yan Jinyun and quickly turned his gaze to Fu Ya. “You play cards every day but you’ve never won once. Why? Did the money come from the wind? If you want to play cards in the future, go and work to earn money yourself!”

“Q-Qingyu, what do you mean by that?”

“Literally!”

Yan Qingyu glanced at Yan Jinyun. “You don’t have to give her pocket money in the future. I’ll give her a million dollars every month. She has food and clothes at home. One million dollars is enough for her to spend outside!”

“If she doesn’t work, she would think that money is so easy to earn. She squandered the money that others earned by working overtime. Does she really think that one is not tired for working so hard?”

Yan Jinyun pursed her lips and looked at him without saying a word.

She didn’t know if it was what she thought, but she didn’t dare to hope.

Her father had been cold to her for too long. He had rarely spoken to her in the past few months.

It was true that she had to work overtime to earn money.

She had just taken over the Yan Corporation, but she had already dealt with the internal problems in such a short time and even made the Yan Corporation quickly get on the right track. It didn’t come from nothing now that the Yan Corporation’s development was also getting better and better.

In the first month, she only slept for three to four hours every day.

This was still good.

At the worst, she didn’t sleep for three days.

Her mother would ask her for money almost every three days. It was always half to a million dollars.

It wasn’t that she couldn’t fork out the money, but it was inevitable that she would feel disappointed if she did it too many times.

She stayed up late and worked overtime but her mother had never said a word of concern to her.

Other people’s mothers would definitely not be like this. Just as she knew, Feng Yuan’s mother was not like this.

Feng Yuan wanted to achieve results after joining his company. Naturally, it was very tiring too.

However, at least, when he worked overtime in the study every day, her aunt would send him supper and hot milk and tell him that he didn’t have to push himself too hard and take things slow.

This was what she had accidentally heard on the phone with Feng Yuan a few times.

She rarely called Feng Yuan when she was busy. Be it when she was busy or when Feng Yuan was busy, the few times she called him, she happened to hear her aunt send Feng Yuan supper and told him not to stay up too late.

She was actually a little envious.

She was also disappointed and aggrieved.

However, she had no one to talk to, and her pride did not allow her to talk to anyone.

It was easy for her to misunderstand that her father was feeling sorry for her now.

She did not dare to think too much about it. She was afraid that it was just her own wishful thinking.

“How will that do? What can one million do? Yan Qingyu, you can’t treat me like this…”

“You don’t want it? Alright, if you want to spend money in the future, go earn it yourself.”

“Yan Qingyu, how can you treat me like this? How did you promise me back then? You said that you would treat me well for the rest of my life, so I ignored your mother’s objections and insisted on marrying into the Yan Family. Now that I’m old, you despise me, right?”

“If you want to think that way, I don’t care either. If you find it meaningless to stay in the Yan Family, you can leave too. You can get a divorce anytime.”

Ignoring Yan Jinyun and Fu Ya’s shock, Yan Qingyu continued to say without changing his expression, “When people calm down, they will think about many things.”

“I was busy with other things in the past and didn’t have the time to think so much. Now that I’ve been free for a few months, I’ve thought about a lot of things that I can’t figure out.”

“What I can’t figure out the most is, why did I insist on marrying you back then? Come to think of it, is there anything outstanding about you?”

“You’re living the life of a rich lady. It’s reasonable that you spent my money previously. I’m your husband. I promised to take care of you for the rest of your life. Naturally, I won’t go back on my word.”

“But what about the money Yun’er earned?”

“That’s right. She has the obligation to support me and you. She’s still in charge of the Yan Corporation now and is the richest and most influential person in this family. However, how can one live like you? You’re a mother, not a parasite of the family.”

“You don’t do your job every day and even ask your daughter for money every other day. That’s fine. After all, all these years, you’ve also developed the habit of being extravagant. However, you used to care about your daughter. What about now?”

“What do you take your daughter for now? A money-making tool? The God of Fortune who gave you money to spend?”

“Not only do you not care about your daughter at all, but you also want to curry favor all day. You don’t know your place even during the New Year’s Eve meal. Do you think that’s a banquet where you have to curry favor?”

“Of course, I don’t have the right to criticize you. I’m not much better than you either.” Yan Qingyu didn’t look at Yan Jinyun when he said this.

He didn’t know if it was because he didn’t want to or… he didn’t dare to.

“I’ll move to the old residence today and live in the old residence in the future. If you’re still willing to stay in the Yan Family, it’s up to you whether you want to stay in the main residence or the old residence. You can also leave the Yan Family.”

“If you’re willing to take that one million dollars a month’s pocket money, I’ll transfer it to your account on time. If you don’t want it…”

“Yes, I want it!”

Fu Ya gritted her teeth. “Yan Qingyu, you’re ruthless!”

“You want me to leave the Yan Family? No way! Since I’ve married into the Yan Family, I won’t leave for the rest of my life!” She already couldn’t raise her head in North City. If she left the Yan Family again, how could she still have the face to meet those acquaintances in the future? Besides, what was she going to rely on if she left the Yan Family?

“If you want to stay in the old residence, go ahead and stay yourself! I will live wherever I live since I marry into the family!” After saying that, Fu Ya ran upstairs angrily.

Yan Qingyu had no intention of responding to Yan Jinyun. He turned and left.

He was headed for the old residence.

Yan Jinyun bit her lip and called him, “Dad!”

Yan Qingyu stopped in his tracks but didn’t turn back.

“I know that you’re still blaming me for seizing your power, but you also know the situation at that time. If I didn’t take over the Yan Family, even if Master Nine couldn’t be bothered with you treating Sister like that, you would still have offended Master Nine in the eyes of outsiders. Those people who cooperated with the Yan Family would give up on continuing to cooperate with the Yan Family because they were afraid of Master Nine. You know very well what would happen to the Yan Corporation then.”

Yan Qingyu turned back to look at her. “Since you’ve seized my power, do it properly. I don’t want the Yan Family to be wasted by someone who seized my power in the end.”

“You can’t earn all the money. I wonder why you work so hard for it.”

“You don’t have to misunderstand what I said to your mother just now. It’s just that I don’t like her style of doing things. It has nothing to do with you.”

“I’ll never forget that my power was snatched away by the heir I meticulously nurtured. You even made me unable to show my face in North City from now on! So, don’t think that I can let it go.”

“However, I knew that I didn’t have the ability to take the Yan Corporation back from you. I had once thought of resorting to unscrupulous means. After calming down for a few months and analyzing the pros and cons, I gave up on this plan.”

“Master Nine values Jinyu and Master Nine even brought her back to the Yin Family. It seems like she has received the Yin Family’s recognition.”

“She has Master Nine as her backer and she’s on your side. It’s equivalent to you getting Master Nine’s help. I know my limits. With Master Nine as your backer, I can’t beat you guys, but I really can’t ignore it.”

“In that case, I’ll stay in the old residence in the future. Out of sight, out of mind.”

Yan Jinyun stared at him and bit her lip without saying a word.

Yan Qingyu’s gaze flickered for a moment before he turned to leave.

“Dad, Sister is here. There’s no hurry for you to move to the old residence. This is the first time Sister has been at home for the New Year in 16 years. Although New Year’s Eve has passed, today is the first day of the new year. The meaning is similar.”

“Don’t you want to see her?”

Yan Qingyu paused. “There’s no need to.”

“It’s not like we have a deep relationship. Besides, if it wasn’t for her, would my power be snatched away by my biological daughter? Before she came back, everything in the Yan Family was fine. Ever since she came back, nothing went smoothly for me.”

Yan Jinyun was furious when she heard that. She was about to speak when someone beat her to it.

“Yo, everyone’s here.”

Yan Jinyun and Yan Qingyu froze at the same time.

They looked over and saw Yan Jinyu standing at the entrance with a smile.

Zhao Ling, who was leading the way by her side, was trembling in fear. She looked very frightened. It seemed like Yan Jinyu had long been standing there, but Zhao Ling didn’t speak up to notify them. Zhao Ling was so nervous and scared because she was afraid of being punished by her, the head of the Yan Family.

Didn’t that mean that Yan Jinyu had heard everything?

Yan Jinyun’s heart tightened, “S-Sister…”

Yan Qingyu’s pupils were constricted. If one looked closely, they would notice that he was a little flustered and at a loss.

He was about to leave in a hurry, but he could not take a step now.
