Yin Jiujin also realized that he had overreacted.
He pinched her glabella.
Why did it feel like he was raising a daughter? He was worried about everything. He was not such a naggy person in the past.
He rarely spoke about things that could be resolved physically.
Ever since he met the young lady, he had changed completely and became unlike him. However, even if he realized it, he did not want to change it.
âHave you eaten?â
âYes, Iâve eaten. I ate in the canteen. Iâm in the dormitory now. What about Brother Nine? Have you eaten?â
Yin Jiujin looked at the pile of documents on the table that needed his signature and said without changing his expression, âIâve eaten.â
âReally?â Yan Jinyu narrowed her eyes and smiled.
Yin Jiujin paused when he answered. Although he had paused for less than a second, she had still noticed him.
Yin Jiujin compromised.
The young lady must have used a lot of her brains today to be so smart. She had discovered such a small flaw.
âI was afraid that you would worry, so I lied to you. Iâll get someone to send lunch up now.â
As if afraid that she wouldnât believe him, he pressed the internal phone on his desk. âGet someone to send lunch to my office.â
Lin Zimu heaved a sigh of relief after receiving the internal call.
It was almost 1:30 pm when the boss finally remembered to eat.
He had plucked up the courage to remind the boss that it was lunchtime, but he was frightened by the bossâs sharp gaze and did not dare to speak again.
He thought that if his boss still didnât eat in half an hour, he would risk his life to remind him again. If the boss still wasnât eating after he reminded him, he would call Miss Yu.
âBrother Nine, youâre still talking about me. You donât even eat on time.â
âItâs only today. I had a lot of things to do today, so I forgot about it.â Of course, this wasnât the truth. Yin Jiujin had forgotten about his meals and rest countless times in order to reach his current position.
âJust this once.â
She smiled faintly and said dotingly, âAlright, just this once.â
He simply asked, âDid you notice anything unusual in school?â Yin Jiujin knew that Yan Jinyu went to school mainly to investigate the head of the Jones Family from Country Y.
He was happy that she was willing to go to school, but he was also a little worried.
He was worried that she would be in danger.
âYes, but I havenât figured it out yet. I wonât tell you for now. Iâll tell you in detail when I figure it out.â
Yin Jiujin had no intention of pursuing the matter. âAlright, be careful. If thereâs anything, let me know immediately.â
âMm-hm.â
âClass starts at 2:20 pm. Itâs 1:30 pm now. I want to take a nap so Iâll hang up first.â
âAlright, bye, Brother Nine.â
After hanging up, Lin Zimu pushed the food cart into Yin Jiujinâs office.
âArrange for a few people to protect Little Yuâer secretly.â
Lin Zimu was stunned. How many people were Miss Yuâs match with her skills? Did she need protection?
Although he thought so, he still answered respectfully, âYes, Boss.â
***
Yan Jinyu didnât intend to take an afternoon nap. Since Yin Jiujin reminded her on the phone, after hanging up, she went to bed to sleep.
She didnât set the alarm, but she could still get up on time.
After sleeping for half an hour, she got up, brushed her teeth, and washed her face before heading to the classroom.
She did not walk quickly. The dormitory was quite a distance away from the classroom. When she arrived at the teaching building, she was five minutes away from class.
Along the way, she naturally attracted a lot of attention. However, Yan Jinyu didnât care and just walked by herself.
She looked around habitually to observe the terrain.
There was always a difference between looking at the map and seeing it with their own eyes.
The classroom was on the third floor. Yan Jinyu was about to go upstairs when someone called out, âEldest Miss Yan!â
She was indeed calling her Eldest Miss Yan, but she was using a mocking tone.
She turned around and saw four or five girls walking over.
The person who spoke was the girl at the front.
Her long hair was dyed brown and wavy. She was also wearing a school uniform, but she had two big round earrings on her ears and makeup on her face. Her school uniform seemed to have been changed too and was not so rule-abiding.
She looked a little social.
The girl hugged her arms and sized Yan Jinyu up. âYouâre the eldest daughter of the Yan Family, Yan Jinyu? Youâre indeed quite good-looking.â Her attitude was very disdainful.
Yan Jinyu looked at her and smiled faintly, âWhatâs the matter?â
âYan Jinyu, whatâs with your attitude? Canât you see that our Sister Yan is talking to you? Be more proper! Also, our Sister Yan is talking to you, but youâre still standing so high up. Do you want our Sister Yan to look up to you? Hurry up and get down!â
Yan Jinyu was going upstairs. At this moment, she had already walked up six stone stairs.
As she stood on it, those people walked over and so naturally she was standing at a higher place. They needed to look up at her.
Perhaps it was because these few people were used to being overbearing in school, when they saw them coming over, most of the students actually retreated silently and went upstairs from the corridor on the other side of the teaching block. Only a few people dared to walk here.
Indeed, those who dared to walk here were not afraid of these girls.
Either they were very capable or their families were stronger than these girlsâ families. They were not people they could afford to provoke.
Yuan Xi and Luo Yikun were one of them.
The two of them were walking over.
They shouldnât have agreed on it. Instead, they happened to walk over one after another.
Seeing the situation here, the two of them stopped in their tracks.
Yan Jinyu ignored them. Her smiling gaze turned to the girl who had just spoken, âDid you just say that you want me to get down?â
The girl was inexplicably afraid of that harmless smile, but she didnât dare to be a coward at this moment. Hence, she mustered up her courage and continued, âSo, so what if I am? Hurry up and get down!â
Yan Jinyu played with the phone in her hand and her smile deepened. âI donât know how to get down. Why donât you get down and demonstrate?â
âY-youâ¦â
âShut up!â It was âSister Yanâ who scolded, âItâs useless! Youâre even stammering in front of a country bumpkin. Youâre embarrassing me!â
âI-Iâm sorry, Sister Yan. I-Iâ¦â
âShut up!â
âYes.â She actually wanted to say that she didnât know why she felt inexplicably afraid when she saw Yan Jinyuâs smile.
âCome down and talk!â
Yan Jinyu looked at her with a faint smile. âAre you looking for trouble?â
âSister Yanâ frowned. Why wasnât she afraid of her?
âI heard that you just transferred over today. Then, you must have never heard of my name, Feng Yan[1]. Ask anyone who knows who I, Feng Yan, am in Boyu. In Boyu, not many people dare to talk to me like you!â
âIâll give you one more chance. If you donât come down, Iâll go up and kick you down!â
âSounds like youâre indeed someone important,â Yan Jinyu said calmly.
Feng Yan looked up at the sky.
âPardon me for asking, but how did I offend⦠Sister Yan?â She was clearly smiling and her tone was not harsh, but Feng Yan could hear a hint of mockery.
âHmph, I heard that youâre Bo Langâs deskmate as soon as you transferred here? Bo Lang actually agreed to let you be his deskmate. Thatâs unforgivable!â
âI was wondering how I provoked Sister Yan. So youâre Bo Langâs admirer.â
âSpeaking of which, the form teacher arranged for me to sit in that seat. Since Bo Lang being fine with it is so inconceivable to you, shouldnât it be Bo Langâs problem? What does it have to do with me? You should look for him.â
âIâm here to look for you. What can you do? Hmph! You seduced Bo Lang with your looks. Not only did you make him agree to be your deskmate, but he even took the initiative to talk to you and take the initiative to accompany you to the canteen to eat! See if I donât teach you a lesson today!â
âSeduce?â Yan Jinyuâs expression turned cold.
âI hate it when people use that word on me!â
Feng Yan, who was about to rush over to teach Yan Jinyu a lesson, was frightened by her gaze. She suddenly stopped in her tracks.
Yan Jinyu walked down the stone steps step by step. After walking two steps, she stopped and looked down at her, âI wanted to tease you guys for a while, but now, Iâm not in the mood.â
As soon as she finished speaking, she threw her phone at Feng Yanâs face!
Feng Yan staggered back and fell to the ground.
And Yan Jinyuâs phone had somehow returned to her hands!
It was too fast. The onlookers and Feng Yanâs sidekicks didnât see it clearly. They only thought that it was a rebound.
Only Luo Yikun and Yuan Xi saw it clearly.
A golden thread as thin as hair quickly flew out from Yan Jinyuâs left wrist and took the phone back!
It was too fast. If he hadnât been staring at her, even Luo Yikun, who knew Yan Jinyuâs identity, might not have been able to see it.
âYou! You! Youâ¦â
Feng Yan raised her trembling hand to point at her. Just as she was about to raise her hand, Yan Jinyu leaped down the stone steps in a flash and kicked her. There was a âcrackâ.
It was obviously the sound of bones breaking.
âAhââ
Feng Yan screamed.
Everyone felt their blood run cold.
The lackeys retreated with pale faces, frightened.
Most importantly, Yan Jinyu even stepped on Feng Yanâs hand after kicking it back.
She was just short of crushing her twice!
Her actions⦠Oh no, her actions were ruthless.
âTeach me a lesson? Tsk!â
âI wanted to go to school quietly to get my certificate, but you insisted on looking for me. Great, I canât even keep a low profile in school now.â
ââ¦â The onlookers. She had been famous on the forum ever since she entered school. She was also the eldest daughter of the Yan Family, the twin sister of the school belle. How could she be low-key?
However, they did not expect her to be so strong when she looked innocent and harmless!
Fortunately, due to Master Nineâs dignity, they didnât look for trouble with her or have any designs on her. Otherwise, Feng Yan would probably be their outcome now.
She took a few steps back silently.
Letâs watch from afar.
âSchool is a sacred place for learning. Fighting is bad, and killing is even worse. So, you should be glad that youâre in school. Otherwiseâ¦â She retracted his leg calmly.
Feng Yan was in so much pain.
Otherwise, what? Even if Yan Jinyu didnât continue, it was enough to make her shiver.
She heard it. Yan Jinyu wasnât just talking about fighting. She was also talking about killingâ¦
Murder!
Born in a big family, it wasnât like she had never seen open and hidden conflicts that had people killed. However, those were all in private, but Yan Jinyu said it out loud in public!
Was she scaring her?
Yan Jinyu didnât dare to kill anyone!
She definitely wouldnât dare!
âBo Langâs admirer? Itâs a little confusing for Bo Langâs admirer to come and find trouble with me. Why? Donât tell me that youâve never heard that I have a man since you study in the only elite school in North City?â
Feng Yanâs pupils constricted and she even forgot to snort.
âFrom the looks of it, youâve heard of him. I really donât understand. Isnât Yin Jiujinâs reputation famous enough? Why would anyone dare to find trouble with his fiancée?â
âBesides, do you think Iâm that stupid? With a fiancé like Yin Jiujin, would I still care about a high school student who hasnât matured?â
Bo Lang, who still hadnât matured, walked over and happened to hear her words.
He stopped in his tracks.
He could guess why Feng Yan came to look for Yan Jinyu.
So, Yan Jinyu was talking about him?!
âRemember to take a detour the next time you meet me. Otherwise, as the first person who came to find trouble with me on my first day of school, I might not be able to help but beat you up every time I see you.â
âWeâre still in school. From the looks of it, you should be considered a big sister in school. Why are you crying and trembling like this? Tsk, your nose is still bleeding and your hand is broken. You look really sorry.â
âRemember to take a detour when you see me in the future, okay?â
Feng Yan was already frightened and she was in great pain. How could she dare to say anything? âI-Iâll remember!â
Not only was her hand broken, but she also felt that her nose bridge was broken too.
How did Yan Jinyu manage to make the phone return to her hand after it hit her face?
Moreover, Yan Jinyu had kicked her so quickly just now. She was obviously a martial arts practitioner!
A martial arts practitioner?
So what if she was a martial arts practitioner!
In front of a true expert, Yan Jinyu was at most an amatuer!
Originally, she only wanted to teach Yan Jinyu a lesson today. Now, Yan Jinyu had completely provoked her!
She would never let it go!
As for Master Nineâ¦
At the thought of this, Feng Yan instinctively shuddered.
Then, she gritted her teeth. So what if she had Master Nine as her backer? Could Master Nine still stay by Yan Jinyuâs side all the time?
Master Nine had no choice but to interfere because of the engagement. Did Yan Jinyu really think she was someone important?
After she secretly got rid of Yan Jinyu! Would Master Nine become enemies with the Feng Family for a dead person?
Even though they had not interacted much for many years, in Master Nineâs heart, the Feng Family was definitely more important than a dead Yan Jinyu!
Yan Jinyu was so sharp. Feng Yan was so obviously indignant. How could she not notice it?
She stepped on Feng Yanâs hand again.
Another creepy scream.
âWhy? Are you unhappy?â
âYou want to kill me?â
