Chapter 34 - Dining At The Restaurant
In the restaurant, Yan Jinyun rolled her eyes when he saw Feng Yuan sitting beside her.
Yan Jinyu passed the menu to Yan Jinyu, "I've placed my order. I don't know what you like to eat, but you can place the order yourself. This meal doesn't need the card from Dad. I'll treat it as… thank you." Actually, what Yan Jinyun wanted to say was to apologize and thank her, but her arrogance wouldn't allow her to say the word 'apologize'.
The meaning of this "thank you" was very broad. Was it to thank Yan Jinyu for saving her in the dark alley? Was it to thank Yan Jinyu for not being calculative with her for scheming against her? Or was it to thank Yan Jinyu for treating her at the cold drink shop downstairs? Only Yan Jinyun herself knew.
Yan Jinyu didn't say anything. She simply took the menu and ordered a few dishes.
Upon seeing this sight, Feng Yuan was stunned.
Could it be that Yan Jinyun had completely gained Jin Yu's trust? Why did they seem to be getting along so well?
Jinyu seemed so ignorant. With Yan Jinyun's black heart, it was not impossible for her to gain Jinyu's trust within a week.
Feng Yuan felt uncomfortable when he thought of this.
If he had known earlier, he wouldn't have cared about the fact that the Yan and Feng families had not interacted for many years. He would have rushed to the Yan Family to look for Jinyu and give her some warnings. Now that the situation was like this… He couldn't always be by Jinyu's side to prevent her from being schemed against by Yan Jinyun so what should he do?
He glared at Yan Jinyun again.
Yan Jinyun rolled her eyes, "What's wrong with you?"
"You're the crazy one! Yan Jinyun, I'm warning you. If you dare to do anything to harm Jinyu, I won't let you off!"
"Busybody."
"Look at you, you call yourself the top socialite. Your words are so unpleasant. I wonder if those people have a problem with their eyesight. They actually think that you are the undisputed top socialite in North City." He looked at Yan Jinyu, "Jinyu, don't be fooled by her appearance. Her heart is really black! She…"
Before he could finish speaking, Yan Jinyu interrupted him, "Do you want to order?" The menu was already passed to him. There was a very clean smile on her face, and she looked very gullible.
Feng Yuan instantly replied, "…Yes!" Forget it, he would just watch over her a little more in the future. Jinyu was obviously bewitched by Yan Jinyun. If he continued to speak now, Jinyu might even think that he was trying to drive a wedge between them. If Jinyu stayed away from him because of this, the gains would not make up for the losses.
He converted his anger into appetite and ordered a few of the most expensive dishes in the restaurant. Anyway, Yan Jinyun said that it was her treat!
Yan Jinyun had known Feng Yuan for so many years. She knew very well what he was thinking. Looking at his smug look after ordering the dishes, she felt that he was such an idiot.
She couldn't be bothered to argue with him.
Yan Jinyu didn't eat much. She simply moved her chopsticks around and then stopped.
Seeing that she had put down her chopsticks, Yan Jinyun looked up and glanced at her. She didn't say anything and continued to eat her food. On the other hand, Feng Yuan, who was turning his anger into appetite, stopped when he saw her stop eating. "Why did you eat so little?"
"I'm not hungry." At that moment, Yan Jinyu's phone rang, "You guys continue, I'm going to answer a call."
"Go ahead." Feng Yuan was actually very curious about who had called. A week had passed, and his father had already investigated clearly how Yan Jinyu had been through all these years. Logically speaking, Yan Jinyu shouldn't have any friends, but someone had called her. He wanted to show more concern for her, but when he thought about how it would be impolite to ask who had called her, he held back and didn't ask.
Yan Jinyun looked at Yan Jinyu's retreating back as she left. The hand holding the chopsticks paused.
Yan Jinyu had left her phone on the table earlier. When the phone rang, she saw the caller ID. It was a call from someone called "Feng".
After seeing Yan Jinyu make a move, she knew that Yan Jinyu wasn't the person she knew previously. Hence, it didn't seem strange that Yan Jinyu had some close friends.
Yan Jinyu, who was walking to the washroom with her phone in hand, did not pick up the call immediately. However, she did not hang up either. She placed her phone on the sink and started vomiting.
Even someone as strong as her had tears flowing out of her eyes.
This was not Yan Jinyu's first time drinking yogurt to the point of vomiting. This kind of situation was very normal to her. Otherwise, those three people would not constantly remind her to drink less.
Yan Jinyu wasn't someone who liked to torture herself. It was just that she was easily irritated, and once she was irritated, she couldn't suppress her anger. All these years, Feng, who had superb medical skills, had tried countless times, but he still couldn't find a solution. The only useful thing was the yogurt that she used to suppress the disgusting smell of blood after killing someone for the first time.
However, they all knew that she could not continue like this. The only thing the three of them could do was to nag at her ears from time to time. She would still listen to their words occasionally.
It was fine normally, but not today.
Many years ago on this day, it was Yan Jinyu's first time killing someone. Even though so many years had passed and countless people had died at her hands, the first time she killed someone still affected her greatly.
The phone rang and then stopped.
Yan Jinyu finally stopped vomiting. With both hands, she held the water from the tap and washed her face. If it wasn't for the fact that her eyes were red and there were still water droplets on her face, with her calm expression, no one would have thought that she was vomiting so badly just a second ago.
She took some tissue paper from the side and dried her hands before picking up her phone to answer the call.
"Feng."
His tone was no different from usual, but the person on the other end of the phone clearly paused for a moment. After a long while, he said, "At the latest, someone will send the medicine directly to the Yan Family tomorrow morning." He did not ask her why she took so long to answer the call, nor did he ask if she had drunk too much yogurt. It was just a simple sentence.
Yan Jinyu paused, then said in a relaxed tone, "Feng, I'm fine."
"Little Yu, I don't think you want to see us in North City."
"Alright, I'll follow the prescription and drink the medicine you sent over, even though I'm really fine."
"It's good that you're fine, but in Fengling's words, you're good at lying. I don't trust you."
"It's true. I didn't lie to you this time. I made a move today."
The other party was obviously stunned for a moment, "You made a move? Is anyone dead? Do you need us to clean up the aftermath?" Without asking why she attacked, he directly asked if there was a need to clean up the aftermath of someone's death.
Yan Jinyu smiled gently, "No, I found it troublesome and didn't use too much force. So don't worry, I didn't drink much yogurt."
She drank the yogurt to suppress her frustration and anger. Since she had made a move and was able to control her strength, it meant that she had suppressed her anger.
Feng was slightly relieved.
"Even if that's the case, you still have to drink the medicine. The medicine I prescribed can treat illnesses and strengthen your body even if you're not sick."
"Feng, you sound like you're selling fake medicine."
Feng laughed when he heard that, "Only you dare to say that about me."
"I heard from Little Rain that you went out. Since that's the case, you should spend more time outside. You haven't been back to North City for so many years, so it's a good opportunity for you to familiarize yourself with the environment. You'll have to stay in North City for a long time, so it can only be beneficial for you to familiarize yourself with the environment."
Yan Jinyu knew that he was still worried about her. He wanted her to get out more to divert his attention. After all, she had only answered the call after such a long time.
Indeed, it was easier for her to feel frustrated when she saw those people in the Yan Clan. Just take today as an example, it was better for her to stay outside than in the Yan Clan.
"I know, I'm about to go shopping now."
After hanging up the call, Yan Jinyu stared at the phone for a few seconds before laughing lightly and walking out of the washroom.
However, she did not know that someone was standing outside the washroom when she was vomiting. She had a complicated expression on her face and only left hurriedly after she hung up.
Feng Yuan, who was having his meal, looked at the person walking over and asked curiously, "Why are you back? Where's Jinyu? She seems to be heading towards the washroom too. Didn't you see her when you went to the washroom? It's been more than half an hour, why isn't she back yet?"
