The Atypical Young Lady Has Returned

Chapter 149: Simple and Brutal

“It was hard for the person who brought me to Ghost Slaughter Island. The children that others brought with them all had their strengths, apart from me. Not only was I young and silent, but I also had injuries on my body. Later on, I heard that not only did his punishment not lessen, it even worsened.”

She said these words in a teasing and relaxed tone, but the two of them felt extremely heavy-hearted when they heard her words.

She was still young, injured and wasn’t speaking. For her to survive in that ruthless place on Ghost Slaughter Island, it was obvious how much hardship she had suffered and experienced.

Xi Fengling’s heart ached even more.

Yin Jiujin secretly made up his mind that he would definitely treat her better in the future and not let her suffer any grievances!

After calming down, Xi Fengling said, “That’s true, but Beauty Yu, I think it’s too much of a coincidence.”

“Min Rufeng. Was he really so important that they are willing to risk exposing themselves to kill Old Master Min?”

Yan Jinyu raised her eyebrows. “Otherwise, how did Ghost Slaughter Island get destroyed?”

Xi Fengling fell silent.

Indeed, wasn’t Ghost Slaughter Island destroyed by the four of them together? As one of the four, Min Rufeng was indeed capable enough.

It was not impossible for Ghost Slaughter Island to value him in the early years.

But…

“I still think this is too much of a coincidence. It’s a pity that Ghost Slaughter Island is destroyed now, and that person has long disappeared together with Ghost Slaughter Island. Otherwise, I would have definitely investigated thoroughly.”

Yan Jinyu narrowed her eyes and smiled, “Yes, it’s destroyed.”

“Therefore, even if they had a huge scheme back then, it is already meaningless.” Even if Ghost Slaughter Island was not destroyed, even if Ghost Slaughter Island had ulterior motives, it did not matter. The four of them were no longer the children who were controlled by Ghost Slaughter Island.

Hearing Yan Jinyu’s words, Xi Fengling’s heart finally relaxed slightly.

Looking at Yan Jinyu, she suddenly felt a little emotional. “Beauty Yu, if Ghost Slaughter Island really had a scheme back then, how unlucky would they be to bring us… No, the three of you who are related to the three big families in the capital to Ghost Slaughter Island? We even destroyed their base.”

“And the person who brought you back to make up the numbers. If he’s still alive, he’ll probably regret it so much that he wants to kill himself.”

The child that he picked up on the road was brought back just to make up the numbers and reduce his punishment. In the end, not only did the punishment not lessen, but it even became more severe. That child, who was to make up the numbers and whom so many people had not thought highly of, ended up blowing up their nest.

“He’s long dead.”

“I killed him.”

Yan Jinyu said calmly.

She had tried so hard to escape from the kidnappers and was just short of returning to the Yan Family safely. However, she was brought to Ghost Slaughter Island by that person.

Everything that she had experienced from that point onwards was due to that person.

After she was capable enough, how could she not settle the score with him?

However, her clearly emotionless words made Yin Jiujin and Xi Fengling speechless.

After a long while, Xi Fengling said, “Beauty Yu, then this…”

Yan Jinyu looked at her and smiled lightly, “There’s no need to bother about this. We’ve already destroyed Ghost Slaughter Island. Is there an enemy that we can’t deal with? Not to mention that Ghost Slaughter Island has long been gone, even if it’s still around, we can destroy it once, so why can’t we destroy it again?”

Xi Fengling thought about it and it did make sense.

She smiled in relief. “I indeed have to look for you to tell you this. Otherwise, I’m afraid I’m still in a dilemma now.” She might even be a little worried.

“Focus on your work. If you need help, just ask. It’s been three years. You and Feng have spent too much time in the Min Family. You will only be as carefree as me the sooner you settle it”

“…” Xi Fengling

“…” Yin Jiujin.

“If we can’t find any evidence to prove that Old Master Min’s death is related to the Min Family, so what? When did people like us ever need evidence to deal with others? There are many ways to make people die quietly.”

“…” The both of them again.

“…As expected of Beauty Yu. It’s simple and brutal. I think you do make some sense.”

Yan Jinyu grinned.

It was clearly a smug smile, but in Yin Jiujin’s eyes, it was also extremely silly.

Hence, he felt that the young lady’s simple and brutal way of handling things would definitely not be at a disadvantage when she went to the capital with him in the future. However, he started to worry again the very next second.

“Beauty Yu, have you ever thought of experiencing school life like Little Rain?” Recalling Yan Jinyu’s words about her being carefree, Xi Fengling suddenly spoke.

Her thoughts were similar to Yin Jiujin’s. She didn’t intend for Yan Jinyu to learn anything. She just wanted her to go to school, make friends, and shop around like an ordinary girl.

After all, that was an experience Yan Jinyu had never had in her 18 years of life.

Yin Jiujin didn’t expect Xi Fengling to mention this too. He looked at her in surprise. Then, he became even more certain that Xi Fengling was really concerned about Yan Jinyu.

He didn’t interrupt and simply looked at Yan Jinyu.

As expected, the smile on the girl’s face froze.

Yes, she must be thinking of excuses again.

She stared at Xi Fengling and then narrowed her eyes. “Meimei, did you smoke just now?”

Xi Fengling’s smile froze.

Oh no! She was so focused on talking that she forgot about that!

She knew that Beauty Yu did not like to go to school. Or rather, she did not like to be controlled. Not to mention Beauty Yu, the three of them did not like to be controlled by others either.

However, she just wanted Beauty Yu to experience the life of an ordinary girl…

If she had known that Beauty Yu had something on her, she would never have mentioned anything that she was unwilling to do!

“…Beauty Yu, I think you’re mistaken.”

Yan Jinyu smiled silently.

Xi Fengling was frightened, “Alright, you didn’t see wrongly. I admit that I lit a cigarette and even took a puff… Two puffs, really! I only took two puffs!”

“Beauty Yu, if you pretend that you didn’t see it this time, I won’t nag you the next time I see you drinking yogurt. I won’t complain about you either. How about that?”

Drinking yogurt…

Yin Jiujin picked up his coffee and took a sip.

There was an indecipherable look on his face.

It seemed like he was right to limit the amount of yogurt for the girl. Huo Siyu and Xi Fengling, who were very familiar with the girl, seemed to worry that the girl was drinking yogurt without any limit.

“I rarely drink it now.”

“So Meimei, this condition is not negotiable.”

Xi Fengling was taken aback.

It was not because Beauty Yu’s subsequent conditions could not be negotiated, but because she said that she rarely drank yogurt now.

She then realized that Beauty Yu had not drunk yogurt since she met her today. All in all, they had met for about four hours.

Beauty Yu had not touched yogurt for four hours!

This had never happened before!

Little Rain had previously mentioned to them that Beauty Yu’s situation seemed to have improved. She said that it might be because she had returned to the Yan Family and resolved the obsession in her heart, or it might be because of Yin Jiujin.

At that time, both she and Min Rufeng were skeptical.

She didn’t expect it to be true.

She didn’t care if Beauty Yu would stir up trouble again. She was extremely excited when she thought about how Beauty Yu’s condition had indeed improved.

No one wanted Beauty Yu to walk out of that trauma more than her.

After all, Beauty Yu’s trauma was closely related to her.

Although she was excited, she couldn’t show it too obviously on her face lest she provoked Beauty Yu again.

She tried her best to put on her usual charming smile, “Beauty Yu, are you lying to me?”

“If you think I’m lying to you, you can supervise me at any time. If I drank too much and get caught by you one day, you can nag at me as you please.”

“Alright, I’ll believe you for now. Beauty Yu, can you forget about me smoking? I won’t mention about you going to school ever again.”

Yan Jinyu narrowed her eyes and smiled, “Sure, sure.”

“…” Yin Jiujin who witnessed their exchange.

The young lady was really trying her best to avoid school.

“Do you still want the coffee?” Yin Jiujin suddenly asked.

Of course, he was asking Yan Jinyu.

Yan Jinyu looked at him and shook her head. “No, I’m done. What’s wrong? Does Brother Nine have something to do? If you have something to do, you can go ahead first. Meimei and I will sit for a while more.”

“No, I want you to accompany me somewhere.”

“Where are we going?”

Yin Jiujin didn’t answer directly. Instead, he glanced at Xi Fengling, who was sitting opposite him.

At that moment, Xi Fengling actually understood the meaning in Yin Jiujin’s eyes.

He didn’t want her to follow them.

She took a sip of coffee and crossed her enchanting legs. She raised her eyebrows, “I still have something to do, so I won’t be joining you guys.” She said to Yan Jinyu, “Beauty Yu, I’ll call you tomorrow morning and bring you shopping.”

Yin Jiujin glanced at her again.

His gaze became much kinder.

Not bad. She had a good eye.
