Chapter 347: The School’s Atmosphere
Yin Jiujin still personally sent Yan Jinyu to school.
“You’re injured. You actually don’t have to go to school today. You should rest at home. Why don’t you go?” After sending Yan Jinyu to the school gate, Yin Jiujin was still a little unwilling to let her go.
“It’s fine. It’s just a light injury. I’ve applied medicine and it’s almost healed. Brother Nine, don’t worry.”
“You weren’t so enthusiastic about school in the past, but now you look like you want to leave me immediately.”
“…” Yan Jinyu.
She looked at the person in the driver’s seat speechlessly.
Was it appropriate to say such childish words with a calm and cold face?
She blinked. “As a student, what’s wrong with being enthusiastic about school? Also, Brother Nine, you’re wrong about one thing. It’s true that I’m enthusiastic about school, but I don’t want to leave you immediately.”
She raised her left hand to show him the time on her watch. “Look, I’m almost late.”
She unbuckled her seatbelt and leaned towards him. She held his face. “Brother Nine, to be honest, do you regret sending me to school?”
“If you regret it and don’t want me to continue going to school, I can skip school. I can leave with you immediately and accompany you every day.”
Yin Jiujin was undoubtedly tempted by her words.
However, he was not that impulsive.
The young lady was 18 years old, but he was not.
As a responsible fiancé and guardian, he had to make plans for the young lady.
Besides, he still felt a little awkward when she was so close to him in this school uniform. Or rather, he still could not get over the hurdle in his heart.
Every time he saw her youthful appearance in her school uniform, he felt that he was especially animalistic. However, he could not control his thoughts when she approached.
“You should go to school properly at your age. I’m just worried about your injuries.”
“Forget it. Go ahead. I’ll pick you up from school in the afternoon.”
“Alright, I thought I didn’t have to go to school anymore. Then, Brother Nine, kiss me.” She was clearly holding his face and could kiss him as soon as she lowered her head, but she still wanted him to take the initiative.
Yin Jiujin felt that she had done it on purpose.
He knew that it was difficult for him to do it when she was in her school uniform, but she still teased him like this.
“Brother Nine, do you not like me anymore? Why do I have to take the initiative to ask for a farewell kiss every time you send me to school?”
Yin Jiujin removed her hand that was holding his face and held it in his palm. He looked up and kissed her. “Cut it out. Let’s go to class.”
“Brother Nine, you’re so perfunctory. You really don’t like me that much anymore.”
She pouted and looked a little unhappy.
She broke free from his grip and was about to get out of the car.
“I’m leaving now.”
She was a little unreasonable.
Yin Jiujin liked it when she was like this. It made her look even more lively. She wasn’t smiling without showing her emotions, nor was she cold and ruthless when her killing intent suddenly appeared.
An 18-year-old girl should be unreasonable and throw a small tantrum. Why should she be so sensible? It made one’s heart ache for her.
Just as she pushed open the car door and was about to get out, Yin Jiujin held her hand.
She was pulled back.
Yin Jiujin leaned over and trapped her in the front passenger seat.
He closed his eyes and kissed her lips.
It was a gentle and affectionate kiss, but he did not open his eyes to look at her the entire time.
After the kiss, he tidied her slightly messy long hair and pinched her face. “Go ahead.”
After getting out of the car, Yan Jinyu turned back to look at the car that was still parked there and chuckled.
She realized that teasing Yin Jiujin was quite interesting.
He had always been calm and composed, but he had made an exception because of her.
Not to mention anything else, just the fact that he clearly wanted to get close to her and had all kinds of concerns about her identity as a student made her want to tease him.
He was clearly such an invasive person, but he was very careful when he kissed her. It was as if he was trying his best to control himself from breaking through any defense.
Of course, this was only limited to when she was wearing her school uniform. Yin Jiujin was definitely not like this if she changed her clothes.
That was why she found it interesting.
She had seen the different Yin Jiujin.
She headed to school happily.
Even though the school’s atmosphere was very strange today, it did not affect her good mood.
Actually the atmosphere was strange amongst only the third-years.
After all, there were only the Year Three students at the resort on Saturday.
Even if some people didn’t know what had happened at first, they roughly knew what had happened after hearing the commotion and then being personally warned by Yin Jiujin’s people.
There were many people who were still in shock.
Xiao Qun’s sudden disappearance naturally nullified the matter of the last three students in the class getting their parents and guardians to school. Hence, Yan Jinyu didn’t mention it to Yin Jiujin.
Along the way, Yan Jinyu realized that many people were looking at her with complicated gazes.
Their gazes were mostly filled with fear for her.
From the school gate to the teaching building to the classroom, these were only more of these gazes.
The Year Three students were all gathered in one teaching building.
Yan Jinyu ignored everyone’s gazes and walked into the classroom.
Almost all the students in the class were here, including the injured Zhao Yue.
She sat at the first table with Yan Jinyun.
Seeing Yan Jinyu walk in, Zhao Yue’s face turned pale and she couldn’t help but shiver.
That night, she was almost killed by Yan Jinyu!
She actually didn’t want to come to school today, but after knowing what had happened that night, her parents insisted that she come to school on time.
They were afraid that her sudden absence would attract Yan Jinyu’s attention and she would remember that she had offended her in the past and settle the score with the Zhao Family.
It was not an exaggeration to say that she was brought to school by force.
Yan Jinyun glanced at Zhao Yue but didn’t say anything. She then looked at Yan Jinyu.
Yan Jinyu walked past the podium in front of her and glanced at the crutch behind Feng Yuan. She said to Yan Jinyun, “You should stay in the hospital or at home to recuperate. With your results, it won’t affect you if you don’t come to school for a day or two.”
“I’m almost healed. The teacher will be talking about the mock test papers today. I don’t understand two of the questions so I want to listen to the teacher’s explanation.”
Yan Jinyu looked at her.
She was a good student. No wonder she could grow up so outstanding.
Indeed, no matter how good a congenital condition was, one had to work hard after birth. Otherwise, no matter how good a congenital condition was, it would be difficult to become successful without working hard.
“If you have any questions you don’t understand, you can ask me.”
Seeing Yan Jinyu and Yan Jinyun’s normal conversation, everyone present suspected that they were dreaming.
The content of the dream was: These two sisters weren’t on good terms. Yan Jinyu pushed Yan Jinyun downstairs and made her fall and be hospitalized. In reality, it was: Yan Jinyun fell down the stairs herself. The two sisters had a very good relationship and weren’t at odds.
Before they could recover from their complicated emotions, they heard Yan Jinyu’s words.
They were all silent.
Yan Jinyu was the second last in class, but she actually told the second best in the cohort to ask her if there were questions that she did not understand. Did she not know enough about herself?
However, Yan Jinyun’s thoughts were different from theirs. She knew that Yan Jinyu wouldn’t boast for no reason. Hence, after hearing Yan Jinyu’s words, her eyes lit up. “Are you serious?”
She was happy that Yan Jinyu didn’t really know nothing. She was even happier that Yan Jinyu took the initiative to say that she could ask her the questions.
“Yes, really.”
“I-I can ask you now?”
Yan Jinyu chuckled. Look at how happy she was. Those who didn’t know better would think that it was something big.
Yan Jinyun’s image as a cold goddess almost collapsed.
“Class is almost over. Wait for class to end.”
Yan Jinyun suddenly realized that she seemed to be too excited.
She sat back down and looked like a cold goddess again. “Alright, I’ll ask you the questions after class.”
Yan Jinyu smiled and nodded before walking to her seat.
“Y-Yun’er, why are you… Don’t you and your sister not get along? It’s all her fault that you came to school with a crutch now. You…”
Zhao Yue was frightened and indignant.
Hence, she tried to drive a wedge between them.
Yan Jinyun glanced over and Zhao Yue was so frightened that she quickly shut up.
Glancing at her bandaged arm, Yan Jinyun said mysteriously, “I heard that your hand was accidentally injured on Saturday when we were on a group outing. I wonder if it’s true?”
Yan Jinyun actually didn’t know if Zhao Yue was injured from a fall.
But she could observe it herself.
The moment Yan Jinyu appeared, something went wrong with Zhao Yue. When Yan Jinyu stopped to talk to her, not only did the people around them look at them strangely, but they also looked at Zhao Yue strangely.
Her words were actually more of a test.
Indeed, Zhao Yue’s reaction was even more abnormal after she asked this question. It confirmed her guess.
Zhao Yue’s injuries should be related to Yan Jinyu.
“Zhao Yue, I told you not to try to scheme against her in the name of doing me a favor when my sister returned to North City. I’ll settle the matter between me and her myself!”
“Now, no matter what my relationship with her is, it has nothing to do with you. I don’t want to hear you ask about us again.”
Zhao Yue was stunned and was a little frightened by Yan Jinyun’s sudden cold expression. “I… Yun’er, I don’t mean anything else. I’m just concerned about you. Why do you have to…”
Tears welled up in her eyes and she said weakly, “If you don’t like it, I won’t interfere in your matters anymore.”
Yan Jinyun frowned slightly and ignored her.
Yan Jinyun thought that she knew how to pretend. Now, she realized that Zhao Yue was even better at pretending than her.
In the past, she didn’t think much of it. Now that she saw Zhao Yue like this, she only thought of one word: pretentious.
She took out her test paper and did the questions.
She successfully made Zhao Yue grit her teeth.
Luo Qiu, who was sitting at the back table, happened to see Zhao Yue gritting her teeth.
She thought to herself. Zhao Yue is someone who wouldn’t shed a tear until she sees the coffin.
She was useless and timid, but she was always jealous of others and couldn’t bear to see others doing well.
She thought that Zhao Yue was injured by accident.
She had seen Zhao Yue almost get shot with her own eyes.
Now, it seemed like Eldest Miss Yan had done it on purpose.
If it was really intentional, that would be really scary.
She fired without turning her head and even accurately injured Zhao Yue. It served as a deterrent and yet didn’t take Zhao Yue’s life.
After the door was closed, she couldn’t see the fight behind. However, based on the fact that she had seen Yan Jinyu make a move in the capital and the sounds of the fight at the scene, she could guess that the fight must have been very intense.
Most importantly, the person who wanted to target Yan Jinyu was actually the form teacher!
Other than that, there were a few people in the class, including her cousin, who were not simple.
She really felt like she was the only ordinary person around a group of big bosses.
She turned back to look at Yan Jinyu, who had already proficiently propped herself up on the desk and gently leaped to her seat. Luo Qiu exhaled lightly and retracted her gaze. She then buried her head in her work.
She’d better pretend not to know anything and not get involved.
“Jinyu, are you… alright?” Tan Shiyun turned back and asked.
Bo Lang, who was sleeping on the table, looked up. The two of them were looking at Yan Jinyu.
Bo Lang still had a cold expression on his face, but Tan Shiyun had a concerned look on her face. Her eyes were still filled with guilt, “I’m sorry, Jinyu. I didn’t mean to lie to you.”
“We’re just on different sides. There’s no need to apologize.” Yan Jinyu smiled lightly. “Besides, hasn’t Shiyun never done anything to me from the beginning?”
“I have a bad temper, but I differentiate between gratitude and grudges. Since you didn’t harm me, I naturally won’t take it to heart. However, that’s all.”
“I’m very paranoid, so in the future, everyone should just be ordinary classmates. There’s no need to mention anything else.” What she meant was that she wouldn’t argue with them, but she wouldn’t trust them and wouldn’t have the intention of being close to them.
“Jinyu, I…”
Bo Lang shook his head at her, signaling her to stop talking.
Tan Shiyun bit her lip and didn’t continue.
“I have something to say to Eldest Miss Yan alone.”
Yan Jinyu looked at Bo Lang.
Bo Lang said, “At least for now, we’re not enemies. The enemy of the enemy is our friend. If possible, we hope to cooperate with Eldest Miss Yan.”
“Of course, we know that Eldest Miss Yan doesn’t believe us, but we won’t trust others easily either. Be it the Bo Family or the Jones Family, we’re all experienced businessmen. We naturally believe that there are no eternal friends in the business world, nor are there eternal enemies. As long as the interests are right, the enemies can also become friends.”
“I heard that the Empire Group’s Country Y branch has been suppressing the Jones Family.”
Yan Jinyu’s smile faded slightly.
