The Atypical Young Lady Has Returned Chapter 267 – The Show Begins

Chapter 267: The Show Begins

A week passed peacefully.

Yan Jinyu and Yin Jiujin stayed at the Mount West Villa for a week. On this evening, they finally drove back to the Yin Family.

That day, in the villa that Xi Fengling had prepared for Yan Jinyu, Yan Jinyu had seen the information that Lin Zimu had sent over. Although most of it was expected, there was still a small part that surprised her.

For example, not only was Min Sisi not related to Bai Shuangshuang, but she was also not related to Meng An and Min Guili!

Even someone as calm as Yan Jinyu was a little surprised when she read Min Sisi and those two people’s paternity test reports.

Of course, she was just a little surprised.

However, her enthusiasm for watching the show increased after reading those documents.

However, although they were calm, the Qin Family and the Min Family were not.

Firstly, at the Qin Family, everyone especially Bai Shuangshuang, was shocked on the day Qin Bailu was sent back to the Qin Family by Lin Zimu

After Bai Shuangshuang got over her shock, she felt even more uneasy.

She thought that Qin Bailu wouldn’t be able to come back after she went to Mount West Villa.

The truth was that Qin Bailu had returned unscathed. The rumors outside said that Qin Jianjia had pleaded for mercy.

It sounded reasonable, but Bai Shuangshuang still did not believe it.

She didn’t believe that Qin Jianjia would be kind enough to plead for Qin Bailu. She also didn’t believe that Qin Jianjia was so influential in front of Yin Jiujin.

However, Qin Bailu was very quiet after she came back.

She didn’t make a fuss. She stayed at home and didn’t go out. Most of the time, she locked herself in her room.

Bai Shuangshuang did not have the time to care about her, but Qin Chongwen had to visit her a few times out of worry.

Of course, Qin Bailu would still eat with Bai Shuangshuang and Qin Chongwen. Her attitude was also extremely cold during the meals.

Bai Shuangshuang was already feeling uneasy, and seeing that Qin Bailu was so abnormal, she felt even more uneasy.

She could not suppress her temper.

She would scold Qin Bailu when she had the chance.

Qin Bailu didn’t respond when she scolded her. She would just sneer at her.

It was eerie.

After a week, not to mention Bai Shuangshuang, the person involved, even many of the servants in the Qin Family were frightened by Qin Bailu.

The atmosphere in the Qin Family was very strange.

Then, at the Min Family.

Old Master Min’s death was caused by someone and the rumors that it was caused by Min Guili, Meng An and Min Nan spread increasingly. There were even many people on the Internet discussing this matter. It had already completely affected the Imperial Capital Hospital’s image, so the shareholders decided that Min Guili would temporarily rest at home.

In contrast, Min Rufeng was pushed up and became the vice director of the Imperial Capital Hospital.

This position was many levels higher than Min Nan’s, which was the director of a certain department.

Min Nan was still staying in the Imperial Capital Hospital and not resting at home like Min Guili was all because he was only 10 years old when Old Master Min died. In addition, Min Guili had spent some effort on public relations, so the public opinion was slightly more tolerant of Min Nan.

However, no matter what, it was an undeniable fact that Min Nan’s influence in the capital’s hospital now was completely inferior to Min Rufeng’s.

Taking a look inside the Min Family again.

Min Ting, his father, and Min Rufeng, who all used to live outside all year round, had all moved back to the Min Family to live in the same mansion. They ate at the same table every day and were at odds with each other.

It was obvious how the atmosphere in the Min Family would be.

However, the servants also discovered a very strange phenomenon.

The two sides were already so incompatible but the eldest daughter of the Min Family, Min Sisi, seemed to have a good attitude towards Min Rufeng, the illegitimate son.

Although she didn’t appear to be very close, the servants with slightly better judgment could tell that Eldest Missy didn’t seem to hate Second Young Master.

This made the Min Family’s atmosphere even stranger.

Under such circumstances, the Second Master of the Min Family, Min Ting’s father, Min Xiangbei, who had never celebrated his birthday since his wife passed away, had decided to hold a birthday party at the Min Family’s mansion in three days. At that time, he would invite famous people from all over the capital to attend the banquet.

The Min Family’s strange atmosphere was pushed to the extreme.

“Brother Nine, have you received the invitation to the Min Family’s banquet?” Yan Jinyu, who was sitting in the front passenger seat, asked Yin Jiujin.

“Mm-hm.”

Yin Jiujin looked at her with a gentle expression. “Do you want to go watch the show?”

“Of course.”

“Speaking of which, Third Young Master Min’s father’s birthday came just in time. He can give everyone a big show before the new year.” The new year is in less than a week so wasn’t it equivalent to giving a big show before the new year?

“His birthday didn’t come just in time. It’s indeed his real birthday.”

“…” Yan Jinyu.

“Of course I know. I’m just saying. Brother Nine, you really don’t have a sense of humor.”

“I didn’t expect him to be so cooperative with Feng.” She was referring to Min Xiangbei.

“Second Uncle is a good person and he respects my maternal grandfather very much.”

Hearing how he addressed Min Xiangbei, Yan Jinyu raised her eyebrows slightly.

Even Yin Jiujin treated Min Xiangbei as an elder. It seemed like Min Xiangbei was indeed a good person.

However, after thinking about it, Min Ting was different from the rest of the Min Family. Min Xiangbei, who had raised him, was probably not bad either.

However, although they were elders, since Yin Jiujin wasn’t close to Min Qinglan, he was naturally not close to the other members of the Min Family who had adopted Min Qinglan.

Of course, Min Ting was an exception.

“Brother Nine, I’ve never asked you this. Have you ever thought that the Min Family’s relationship would be so complicated? Min Sisi is actually not Min Guili and Meng An’s daughter. This is such a melodramatic drama about wealthy families.”

“I don’t like to poke my nose into other people’s business. I won’t interfere in other people’s matters either.”

Yan Jinyu’s words were completely casual. Hence, other than feeling that Yin Jiujin’s answer made sense, she didn’t say anything else.

Yin Jiujin said, “But since it’s related to you now, I naturally have to interfere.” He still looked at Yan Jinyu and said seriously.

Yan Jinyu paused for a moment before smiling. “Brother Nine doesn’t have to do anything for now. I’m still watching the show.”

There were not many things that could make her plan ahead. She preferred to improvise on the spot.

Now, there were only two things that she had to plan meticulously for.

One was to endure for a few years while she planned to destroy Ghost Slaughter Island. The other was to hide her identity so that Yin Jiujin couldn’t find out about her past and bring her back.

“Since Brother Nine is on annual leave, you can rest in peace for the next few days and watch a good show. Don’t worry about anything else.”

Yin Jiujin chuckled and nodded. “Alright.”

It seemed like he was on annual leave, but all these years, when had he really not needed to care about anything?

However, he was still very happy that the young lady cared about him.

Since they had returned to the Yin Family, they naturally had to go to the main building to greet Yin Shuguo.

Qin Jianjia and Min Qinglan were also present.

As the end of the year approached, Qin Jianjia was actually very busy during this period of time. She only came back earlier today because she didn’t work overtime.

The moment she came back, Min Qinglan asked her about Qin Bailu.

They were discussing this in the living room right now.

Yin Shuguo didn’t say anything. He had been strolling in the courtyard earlier and because he heard from the butler that Yan Jinyu and Yin Jiujin were coming back, he returned to the living room of the main building and waited.

“Jianjia, there are rumors outside that your sister is trying to harm that girl from the Yan Family. You were the one who pleaded for Jin’er to let her go. Is this true?”

“Mom, the rumors outside can’t be trusted completely, but the outside world is right about this matter. My sister…”

“Mom, you also know my relationship with Dad and stepmother. I’m actually not very close to Bailu. I did have some connections with her in the past. However, I was with Yu’er that day, so I know best what happened.”

“If Jin’er hadn’t taught Yu’er a few self-defense moves, not only Yu’er, but even I would have been in trouble that day. I thought that this had nothing to do with Bailu, but all the evidence is there. I can’t even absolve Bailu.”

“But she’s my half-sister after all. I can’t just stand by and watch something happen to her. Hence, I shamelessly ask Jin’er.”

“Mom, what you should be concerned about now isn’t whether Bailu was behind this matter, but whether Yu’er was frightened by what happened that day. They’ve already said that they would be staying in the Yin Family, but Jin’er and Yu’er have been staying in the Mount West Villa for the past few days. Based on my guess, Yu’er is probably very frightened.”

Yan Jinyu and Yin Jiujin, who had stepped into the door, happened to hear Qin Jianjia’s words.

“…” In that moment.

Listen to her skill at spinning stories.

“At such a time, as Yu’er’s future mother-in-law, Mom, you should be concerned about Yu’er’s condition and not Bailu.”

Qin Jianjia and Min Qinglan were sitting with their backs facing the door, so they didn’t see the two people who walked in. But Yin Shuguo did.

However, he didn’t remind them.

He pretended not to see them either.

Then, he continued after Qin Jianjia, “Jianjia is right. It’s almost the new year. Don’t make the house so lifeless. It’s rare for Jin’er to come home so early for the new year. You have to pay more attention. Otherwise, you would regret after forcing him away like you did in the past.”

“I…” She really couldn’t like Yan Jinyu, but she didn’t want Jin’er to continue to distance himself from her.

However, if she was given a chance to get close to Jin’er, she…

…seemed to be unable to do it either.

It wasn’t that she didn’t want to, but she was really afraid.

She was also very afraid of Yan Jinyu.

Hence, even though she had mentally prepared herself, she still did not dare to take the initiative to talk to them.

It seemed even more impossible for her to take the initiative to care about Yan Jinyu.

She didn’t like Yan Jinyu to begin with, and Yan Jinyu had even threatened her like that. If she lowered herself to care about her, where would she put her face?

“I already said that I won’t interfere in their matters anymore! Naturally, I won’t do anything that resembles a future mother-in-law caring about her future daughter-in-law. I asked this because I think Bailu looks quite obedient. I really didn’t expect her to do such a thing.”

“In fact, the evidence is conclusive.”

“Since that’s the case, you’d better not interact with her in the future. It’s not good for you to interact with such a ruthless sister.”

“I know. Thank you, Mom,” Qin Jianjia said.

Her mother-in-law, other than being timid, talkative, and liked to poke her nose into other people’s business, she was rather harmless. She could still differentiate her family members from the outsiders.

Just that…

How should she put it?

It was just that although these faults of her mother-in-law did not seem big, they were still quite annoying at times.

Just like how her mother-in-law couldn’t act like a mother to Jin’er but she wanted to do what only a mother could do. She even wanted to interfere in Jin’er’s marriage.

This kind of behavior was really not likable.

“Forget it, let’s not talk about this anymore. The invitation for your Little Uncle’s birthday in two days has already been sent to the Yin Family. Tell Han’er that we’ll go over together.”

“Alright, Mom.”

“Speaking of which, your Little Uncle is also strange. He hasn’t held any birthday parties for so many years. Why is he interested this year? Clearly, the Min Family still has so many issues to resolve.”

“Tell Jin’er too. Let him go with us. As for that girl from the Yan Family, there’s no need…”

“Second Young Master and Miss Yu are back?” Butler Wu was afraid that Min Qinglan would say something that would affect Yin Jiujin’s mood, so he hurriedly asked.

Hearing Butler Wu’s words, Min Qinglan was shocked.

She turned around and saw the two people standing by the door.

Yan Jinyu smiled, and Yin Jiujin’s face darkened.

It frightened Min Qinglan even more.

“I-I want to say that the girl from the Yan Family will be coming too.” After saying that, Min Qinglan’s face turned red.

She had lost all her face by admitting defeat in front of this girl!
