Chapter 335: Someone’s Causing Trouble
Seeing that she was still smiling calmly, Yuan Xi couldn’t help but feel angry.
This concerned her life, but she actually did not take it to heart!
“I can’t tell you!”
When he first met Yan Jinyu, he didn’t know her identity. Later on, when they met in South City, he still didn’t know her identity.
However, he already had doubts about her identity then.
He had just returned to South City for a few days before taking a plane to North City again. He didn’t really want to take anything. Instead, he wanted to go to North City to investigate Yan Jinyu.
Because he had just arrived home and then he wanted to return to North City, his family was worried, so they asked his sister to accompany him.
Then, he found a surveillance video of an underground racing arena in North City.
Yan Jinyu wasn’t as the rumors said.
With evidence that Yan Jinyu wasn’t simple, he called to ask that person.
Just as he had expected, Yan Jinyu was the target of that person whom he was supposed to help and had specially chosen to study at Boyu High School in North City after he returned to the country—the number one killer in the killer world, “Chi”!
Before he knew that “Chi” was Yan Jinyu, he didn’t hesitate much. However, after knowing that, he started to hesitate.
He could not explain why he was hesitating.
However, he was already at his limit by doing all these.
His mission was to help kill her, not save her.
She didn’t want to leave and he couldn’t tie her up and leave.
After all, he had promised that person to help him kill her a long time ago.
Even if there was a reason.
“I’ve said everything that needs to be said. It’s up to you.” Yuan Xi turned and left, returning to the venue of the outdoor party.
Yan Jinyu stood at the same spot and chuckled.
She actually felt a little baffled.
She had planned this from the beginning.
It wasn’t her scheme, but she had already pushed Yan Jinyun downstairs because of this. Of course, she couldn’t leave without doing anything.
She wanted to use this to lure the snake out of its hole and then resolve the trouble once and for all.
Yuan Xi knew the situation but was unwilling to reveal anything more. Obviously, Yuan Xi was related to the Jones Family.
He even came to help her when he was involved, and she actually didn’t need his help. It really…
She owed him a favor for no reason!
Just as she was about to walk back, she suddenly stopped in her tracks and looked in a certain direction. “Second Young Master Luo has such good spirits.”
Luo Yikun walked out from behind the tree. “Eldest Miss Yan, you have such a sharp perception. I thought that I’ve hidden very well, but you still discovered me.”
“What is Second Young Master Luo doing here?”
“I was passing by and saw Eldest Miss Yan and Young Master Yuan talking here. I was afraid of disturbing the two of you, so I hid.”
“Passing by?” Yan Jinyu chuckled. “If I remember correctly, Second Young Master Luo was still sitting there when I came over earlier, right?”
Luo Yikun had long known that he couldn’t fool her, so he didn’t deny it. “I think so.”
“Miss Yan, you don’t have to think too much. I was really passing by and didn’t hear anything.”
“Actually, it’s fine even if you heard it. Because at night, there will probably be even more commotion. Since Second Young Master Luo isn’t their accomplice, it’s best for you to stay in the room quietly and not come out to join in the fun later. I don’t want another enemy at this time.”
She smiled at Luo Yikun. “Oh, I actually know Second Young Master Luo’s background too.”
After saying that, she left, leaving Luo Yikun stunned on the spot for a long time.
She indeed knew!
In reality, Yan Jinyu was only guessing. How would she know his background?
However, Luo Yikun was so frightened that he realized once again that Yan Jinyu was indeed a big shot that he couldn’t afford to provoke!
Seeing that she was back, Tan Shiyun heaved a long sigh of relief. “The show was very exciting. You came back at the right time.”
“Mm-hm.” Yan Jinyu smiled and sat down.
***
The rest of the party went very smoothly.
The show was undoubtedly full of variety.
At 10 pm, the gala ended. Some went for supper while others returned to their rooms.
Yan Jinyu didn’t go for supper. Instead, she took two packets of yogurt from the vending machine and went upstairs. The dishes were sent to her room by the waiter.
Tan Shiyun didn’t go for supper either. The two of them returned to their room together.
After eating, Yan Jinyu didn’t shower and sleep immediately. Instead, she drank the yogurt while leaning against the headboard and watching television on her phone.
She did not take off her shoes and just sat leaning against the headboard.
Tan Shiyun sat on the bed and read a book.
No one knew if it was intentional or not, but even when she took off her shoes, they were still placed beside the bed. She could put them on as soon as she stood up.
Was Tan Shiyun reading?
Actually, no.
She couldn’t read.
She only took a book to put on an act as she glanced at Yan Jinyu from time to time.
It was almost 11pm, but Yan Jinyu still had no intention of showering and sleeping. Not only that, she didn’t even take off her shoes. She just leaned against the headboard and watched television.
She was probably afraid of disturbing her. She was wearing earphones when she watched television.
Was Yan Jinyu used to sleeping late, or was tonight an exception?
If it was just tonight, did she maintain such vigilance because she knew that it would not be peaceful tonight?
She pretended to be reading seriously and flipped to the next page. She held the book in her hand and looked at Yan Jinyu, “Jinyu, aren’t you going to wash up and sleep? It seems a little late.”
Yan Jinyu removed one of her earphones. “What did you say?” She smiled apologetically. “I’m sorry, the earphones are a little loud. I didn’t hear you clearly.”
“I mean, it’s a little late. Aren’t you going to wash up and sleep?”
“Oh, you’re talking about that. I’m not in a hurry. I’m seeing something interesting. I’ll wash up later. If you’re tired, wash up and go to sleep first. If you think the lights are too bright, you can turn them off. I’m fine with it.”
She stared at the phone as she spoke, as if she was really engrossed in it.
Tan Shiyun couldn’t tell.
Yan Jinyu didn’t look like she had expected someone to make a move and was on guard.
Could it be that the big boss was really like this in private? She was no different from an ordinary girl? She would also be engrossed in a television show?
“…I’m not in a hurry either. I usually read until midnight. I’m afraid that I’ll disturb you if I sleep too late.”
Yan Jinyu looked at her and smiled. “No, you won’t.”
Tan Shiyun had no choice but to pretend to read again.
She actually wanted to reveal something to Yan Jinyu, but she was afraid that Yan Jinyu wouldn’t believe her.
To be honest, she was on the same side as the other party now. If she told Yan Jinyu rashly that someone might attack her and tell her to be careful, it would be strange if Yan Jinyu would believe her. It was good enough if she didn’t treat her as an enemy and kill her.
However, she…
That person’s order was for her to be on standby at any time. It was best if she gave him a message after Yan Jinyu fell asleep and then she would assist them.
This was also the reason why he arranged for her and Yan Jinyu to be in the same room.
“By the way, Jinyu, why did Yuan Xi look for you just now?”
Yan Jinyu didn’t put on the earphone that she had removed. It seemed like out of courtesy, she made sure she would hear Tan Shiyun when she called her again.
“It’s not a big deal. He’s just sending a message on behalf of the principal, saying that my fiancé called the principal to ask about my test results.”
“Yuan Xi’s father seems to be good friends with the principal.”
Tan Shiyun knew that.
However, she knew very well that Yuan Xi definitely wouldn’t call Yan Jinyu out alone at this critical juncture to say that.
If he was passing the message on behalf of the principal, why didn’t the principal get the form teacher or the dean of students to pass it on, but Yuan Xi?
There were too many loopholes.
However, she really couldn’t figure out what Yuan Xi had said to Yan Jinyu.
In her opinion, Yuan Xi and that person were completely on the same side. They were targeting Yan Jinyu, and they would only be enemies.
“I see.”
Yan Jinyu looked at the pensive Tan Shiyun and smiled faintly, “Are you familiar with Yuan Xi, Shiyun?”
She was stunned and quickly shook her head. “Not very close.”
“Yuan Xi transferred to our class one semester earlier than you. He doesn’t interact with others much and is an aloor loner. Even though I’m the class monitor, I didn’t talk to him much.”
Actually, that wasn’t the truth. She had already known Yuan Xi.
However, it was true that she was not familiar with him.
The grandfather of Linn Jones, the current head of the Jones Family, who was also the father of Old Jones, who had died at Yan Jinyu’s hands, owed Old Master Yuan a favor and had promised him a condition.
Old Master Yuan’s condition was to let the heir of the Yuan Family enter the Jones Family and receive the same education as the heir of the Jones Family. To put it simply, it was to let the Jones Family help the Yuan Family train a qualified heir.
The Jones Family in the early years was the number one family in Country Y. In terms of training their heir, the Yuan Family in South City, who could only be ranked second in South City, was naturally not comparable to them.
Hence, Old Master Yuan brought Yuan Xi to Country Y and sent him to the Jones Family with the excuse that he needed to recuperate.
However, not long after Yuan Xi arrived at the Jones Family, Old Jones was killed and the Jones Family was suppressed by the Bruce Family.
However, even so, the Jones Family still had the mechanism to nurture their heir and Yuan Xi remained in the Jones Family.
Perhaps because they had grown up together, Yuan Xi and Linn Jones, that pervert, could actually build a friendship. Yuan Xi had come to North City to help Linn Jones.
Anyway, that was what she knew.
She had seen Yuan Xi at the Jones Family with her father when she was very young, that was why they had known each other for a long time.
“On the other hand, Jinyu, why are you suddenly asking this?”
“Nothing. I was just asking casually.”
As the two of them spoke, someone knocked on the door.
They looked at each other. Tan Shiyun looked at the door. “Who is it?” She was puzzled. Why would someone knock at this time?
It couldn’t be Linn Jones either.
If his people were looking for trouble, they would definitely not knock on the door in a normal manner and they would not be stupid enough to choose this time to come over.
“Room’s service staff. Your school’s request is for the farm to send each of you a cup of warm milk before bed. Because there were too many people, we didn’t have enough time and were a little late. We didn’t disturb you two at this time, right?”
A woman’s voice and the sound of wheels rolling.
“I think she’s really here to deliver something,” Tan Shiyun said to Yan Jinyu.
“Do you drink milk?”
Yan Jinyu glanced at the untouched packet of yogurt on the bedside table and smiled with narrowed eyes. “I do.” She actually didn’t drink milk. Or rather, she rarely drank it.
“Shall I open the door?”
“I’ll go. I’m still wearing my shoes.” Yan Jinyu took off her other earphone and placed her phone on the bed.
She paused the television drama. Tan Shiyun caught a glimpse of it. It was a very retarded idol drama.
“…” In that moment.
Yan Jinyu walked over and opened the door. Indeed, they were here to deliver milk and were pushing a food cart. Other than the female service staff who knocked, there were also three male service staff pushing the cart.
“Students, did I disturb your rest?” The female service staff was very polite.
Yan Jinyu narrowed her eyes and smiled. “No.”
“I’ll pour you the milk now. Please wait a moment.”
However, as soon as she turned to pour the milk, she suddenly turned back with a gun in her hand, and she pointed it at Yan Jinyu with a fierce expression. “Don’t make a sound! Otherwise, I’ll shoot you!”
“Now, go in!”
She wanted Yan Jinyu to walk in.
Yan Jinyu’s smile faded slightly and she slowly retreated to her room. However, in the eyes of these people, she was frightened silly.
The four of them, along with the dining cart, followed Yan Jinyu into the room.
The female attendant was still pointing the gun at Yan Jinyu.
Another person also took out his gun and pointed it at Tan Shiyun, who was so frightened that she jumped out of bed and put on her shoes in a second.
“Don’t move either!”
Looking at the gun pointing at her, Tan Shiyun was stunned for a moment.
If they were Linn Jones’s people, she would still be “one of them”. They definitely wouldn’t point the gun at her, nor would they be stupid enough to point the gun at Yan Jinyu!
If the number one killer was so easy to kill, Linn Jones wouldn’t have spent so much effort and waited in North City for three years!
So where did these people come from?
For some reason, she was excited.
If Linn Jones knew that someone had beat him to it, he would probably be so angry that he would vomit blood!
He was not angry that others had snatched his enemy, but angry that others had alerted her!
Even if Yan Jinyu didn’t know that Linn Jones would attack her tonight, she would still be vigilant. Once Yan Jinyu became vigilant, how could it be so easy for Linn Jones to attack her again?
She really wanted to see Linn Jones’s expression after knowing about this!
It must be very, very interesting!
