Chapter 123: In The Cold Drink Shop

Chapter 123: In The Cold Drink Shop

Lin Zimu was silent.

Yes, so what?

If it was Eldest Miss Qin or Young Master Qin, the boss might give them some face. Second Miss Qin? The reason the boss could remember such a person should be because of Young Master Qin and Eldest Miss Qin.

“As for Huo Xuan, since he’s so free, let’s find him something to do.”

Lin Zimu suddenly felt pity for Huo Xuan.

The boss had already struck back for revenge because he had been tricked by Young Master Huo once. The trouble that he had created for the Huo Family was enough for Young Master Huo to work for a few months, and it would even make the Huo Family suffer a huge loss. If Young Master Huo had been minding his own business, this matter would have been settled after he took revenge. The boss would not have remembered him forever, but he had to make his presence known at this critical juncture.

Alright, it was understandable that the Huo Family wanted to enter other cities. After all, businessmen who didn’t want to expand their business were not good businessmen. However, among so many cities for Young Master Huo to choose from, he had to choose North City.

Who didn’t know that North City belonged to the boss?

As his boss’s opponent in the business world, he really didn’t know what Young Master Huo was thinking when he chose to enter North City.

“Yes, Boss.” Lin Zimu left.

***

At around three in the afternoon, Yan Jinyu and Yan Jinyun went to the cold drink shop that they had been to previously.

It was called “Summer Time”.

Yan Jinyun had arranged to meet someone here. She rarely came to this shop in the past. She only remembered that there was such a shop here when she passed by once and wanted to drink cold drinks to relieve the heat. Hence, she came in and sat down.

But recently, whenever she passed by this place, she would come in to take a seat.

Now, this was the first place she thought of when she wanted to meet someone.

Yan Jinyun couldn’t explain it either.

The person who she was waiting for hadn’t arrived yet, so she was sitting alone in a private room by the window with a glass of beverage on the table.

She put it down after taking a sip. Instead of continuing to drink, she propped her chin up and looked out of the window.

“Summer Time” was on the first floor. Outside of the window was the sidewalk, and next to the sidewalk was the main road.

Although it was a main road, the traffic here was not congested. Especially at this time, only a few cars passed by.

It looked a little bleak.

At least, it was from Yan Jinyun’s point of view.

After all that had happened yesterday, she was already very tired. Then, she met Luo Yilin…

If Yan Jinyu hadn’t appeared, the rumors wouldn’t have been about the Luo Family’s secret. Instead, it would have been about how she, the top socialite in North City, had lost her reputation.

Hence, it was not an exaggeration to say that it was “soul-stirring” yesterday.

Coupled with the fact that Yan Jinyu and Master Nine seemed to have gotten into some unhappiness after that and she had been worried but she couldn’t call to ask about it. Hence, she was worried for the entire night.

However, after everything that had happened, she only saw an icy cold home when she went back last night. She didn’t see her parents in the living room. They had returned to their room early, presumably because they didn’t want to bump into her.

No one even asked her if she was tired after a busy day and if she had dinner.

This kind of situation had never happened in the past. Of course, she wouldn’t think that it was all because of Yan Jinyu’s appearance.

If her parents indeed cared for her from the bottom of their hearts, they wouldn’t be so heartless to not ask her if she had eaten dinner even if she became the head of the Yan Corporation now.

Even if her father did not want to acknowledge her because she had taken his power, what about her mother?

Putting aside yesterday’s dinner, let’s talk about today’s breakfast. She got up and went downstairs to the dining room. Her parents were having breakfast.

Although her father did not say anything, he looked at her as if he was looking at an enemy. Her mother was no longer as warm and doting as before as she greeted her for breakfast. Instead, she had a cold face and kept saying some sarcastic words to her.

It was very similar to their attitude towards Yan Jinyu when she had just returned home.

She used to think that Yan Jinyu was pitiful, but now, she realized that she was actually the most pitiful person.

Compared to having it before, she would rather have nothing from the beginning than suddenly realize that everything she had was fake.

It hurt to never possess something but it was even more hurtful to realize that what she thought she had was just her own wishful thinking.

“Yun’er.”

The voice brought Yan Jinyun back to her senses. She hid the emotions in her eyes and put on the dignified and cold attitude that the top socialite in North City should have.

She looked at the person, “Qiu.”

The person who came was the eldest daughter of the Luo Family, Luo Qiu, one of the hottest topics of discussion in North City today.

Luo Qiu was wearing a light yellow dress. Her wavy hair was dyed a light gray. Her looks weren’t as outstanding as Yan Jinyu and Yan Jinyun, but they weren’t too bad either.

Due to her prolonged fever and illness, coupled with the news of the Luo Family, she looked very haggard.

Luo Qiu sat down opposite her.

Yan Jinyun asked, “Qiu, you’ve been on sick leave. Are you feeling better now?”

Luo Qiu forced a smile. “I have almost recovered.”

“On the other hand, Yun’er, why did you suddenly think of asking me out? I’m sorry. I had a high fever a few days ago and couldn’t attend your… birthday party.” This pause was because she suddenly remembered that the Yan Family’s banquet didn’t go smoothly. In the end, even the birthday girls left. She was afraid that Yan Jinyun would be sad if she mentioned it.

Yan Jinyun’s expression froze for a moment, but it was only for a moment. She quickly recovered, “It’s nothing. We all have birthdays every year. It doesn’t matter to skip one this year. Besides, didn’t you get someone to bring a gift for you? I haven’t thanked you for the birthday gift.”

“The gift is beautiful. Thank you.”

“It’s good that you like it. You’re in charge of the Yan Corporation now and I haven’t congratulated you…”

Suddenly, she remembered that Yan Jinyun might not want to hear others congratulating her on this matter. After all, she had snatched the rights from her biological father. She changed the topic and said, “You haven’t said why you wanted to ask me out today. I’m sure you’ve seen the news on the Internet. The Luo Family is now…”

At this point, she couldn’t hold back her tears anymore. “Yun’er, what should I do now? My mother isn’t my mother, but my enemy who killed my mother. My brother, whom I’ve always liked, was beaten up and dumped at the Luo Family’s gate. He’s still unconscious, but I’m not worried at all. I’m even a little happy. I think he deserves it.”

“Yun’er, am I very bad? My mother… If Zhang Mei really harmed my biological mother, she deserved to be taken away. But what about Brother? He didn’t seem to have done anything wrong. He even specially applied for leave to take care of me when I was sick. He has always been very good to me…”

Luo Yilin was good to Luo Qiu?

Yan Jinyun sneered inwardly.

If Luo Yilin really treated Luo Qiu well, he wouldn’t have come out to scheme against her when Luo Qiu was seriously ill. Instead, he would have stayed in the Luo Family to take care of Luo Qiu.

His beloved sister was seriously ill, but he still had the mood to scheme against others. What kind of care was this?

Besides, Luo Yilin didn’t ask for leave to take care of Luo Qiu. It was to plot against her.

“Qiu, do you really think they treat you well?”

Luo Qiu froze.

She was speechless.

Before today, she was sure that they treated her well.

It was only yesterday in the middle of the night, when she saw the news on the Internet and ran to find her father and Zhang Mei to question them. Then, Luo Yikun came to find her after she returned to her room in a daze.

Luo Yikun showed her a test sheet. It was the test sheet for the fever medicine that she had been taking recently.

It was only then that she realized that she wasn’t taking any fever medicine at all. Not only that, but those medicines also had ingredients that made her even more ill.

And her fever medicine was all taken from the family doctor by Zhang Mei. The family doctor was introduced by her brother Luo Yilin a year ago.

She felt a chill in her heart when she saw the test results.

She didn’t want to believe it, but Luo Yikun had always been on good terms with her. He couldn’t and wouldn’t lie to her about such a thing.

Most importantly, Luo Yikun would not benefit from the chaos in the Luo Family.

Taking advantage of the chaos to seize power? That would only happen if Luo Yikun had the intention to take over the Luo Family’s power. Before their grandfather passed away, he had made a will to let Luo Yikun inherit the Luo Family in the future. When Luo Yikun found out about it, he rejected it on the spot, saying that he only wanted to be a hedonistic son who would take his shares and dividends and play…

She wondered what her grandfather saw in Luo Yikun at that time.

He changed his girlfriend every other day. He ate, drank, and idled around.

Even she, who was on good terms with Luo Yikun, could not see any merits in him.

However, since Luo Yikun could think of testing her fever medicine without her knowing, he might really have some ability.

The more she thought about it, the further her thoughts went. Luo Qiu looked at Yan Jinyun, retracted her thoughts and wiped her tears. She smiled bitterly, “Yun’er, so even you, a bystander, can see through it better than me.”

“I didn’t see things clearer than you. I don’t know more about the Luo Family than you do. Before yesterday, I really felt that you… Mrs. Luo and Luo Yilin treated you very well.”

“Yesterday?” Luo Qiu asked with some difficulty, “What happened?”

The reason why she asked what had happened and not anything else was because Luo Yilin hadn’t returned home after leaving with Yan Jinyun and Feng Yuan yesterday. He had appeared outside the Luo Family’s door this morning, but he was seriously injured and barely breathing.

Luo Qiu knew that the Luo Family wanted an explanation from Yan Jinyun and Feng Yuan.

Putting aside their friendship, a large part of the reason why she still came to Yan Jinyun’s appointment at such a chaotic time in the Luo Family was because she wanted to understand her brother from Yan Jinyun… Was the reason why Luo Yilin became like that really related to her and Feng Yuan?

If it was really related, what did Luo Yilin do to anger them so much that they didn’t hesitate to beat Luo Yilin up?

The doctor said that Luo Yilin had a total of 10 bones broken, two of which were even shattered. Other than that, his lungs were also seriously injured.

Even if he was cured, he would probably be plagued by illness for the rest of his life.

However, judging from his appearance, other than the dried blood at the corner of his lips and nose, as well as some bruises on his body, Luo Yilin didn’t seem to be seriously injured.

The doctor said that it was because the person who did it was highly skilled. Not only did he seriously injure someone in the most painful way, but it was also not obvious from the outside.

She was very curious how Luo Yilin had offended such a formidable person.

She was even more curious. If Luo Yilin’s injuries were really related to Yan Jinyun and Feng Yuan, then where did they get to know such a person?

Yan Jinyun looked at her blatantly and said, “I’m sure you know that the Luo Family wants an explanation from Feng Yuan and me for Luo Yilin’s injuries.”

Luo Qiu looked at her blankly and then nodded. “I know.”

“The Luo Family’s direction is correct. It’s indeed related to us that Luo Yilin became like that. However, he deserves it!”

“W-What did he do?” Luo Qiu had a guess in her heart. She knew that Luo Yilin had always liked Yan Jinyun very much, but she couldn’t believe that Luo Yilin would do such a thing.

P-perhaps, it was just her imagination.

Just as she was getting mentally prepared, Yan Jinyun said, “He got someone to block Feng Yuan and me in the alley and told someone to bring Feng Yuan away. He told me to follow him…”

Looking into Luo Qiu’s shocked eyes, Yan Jinyun continued, “Qiu, my relationship with Luo Yilin isn’t that good. At most, we all moved in the same circle, so we definitely have to interact with each other. However, he forced me to follow him when he failed to ask me out. He also didn’t let Feng Yuan follow us. Not only that, he even planned to get someone to guard Feng Yuan for the entire night and not let Feng Yuan report for help. I’m sure you can guess what he’s planning to do without me saying anything more.”

“…Yun’er, then you…”

“Of course, I’m fine. Isn’t Luo Yilin the one who’s seriously injured and unconscious now?”

“T-then when he blocked the alley, were it just you and Feng Yuan?” Luo Qiu was shocked that Luo Yilin could really do such a thing. However, compared to being shocked, she was more curious about the person who had seriously injured Luo Yilin.

Because this wasn’t just about Luo Yilin.

For someone who could accurately injure a person to the point of breaking 10 bones and injuring their lungs, but only cause some bruises on their skin and without any external injuries, they must be very capable.

If the other party wanted to take it out on the Luo Family because of Luo Yilin…

This would be the last thing she wanted to see.

It was said that the Luo Family had survived because of a marriage alliance with the Yu Family in the capital back then. Although the Yu Family was only considered an above average family in the capital, their status was much higher than the Luo Family in North City. The reason why the Luo Family could become a family that was only inferior to the Yan Family in North City now was largely related to her father’s ex-wife, her biological mother.

“Me too.” A voice suddenly sounded.

The two of them looked over.
