Chapter 515: Trouble At The Mall

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

“What are you talking about? Xiaoxiao, we were friends in the past. Later on, we were sisters-in-law. We’re family.”

Yan Jinyu was a little surprised that Min Qinglan would say what she was thinking so directly.

Her impression of Min Qinglan was not good to begin with. In her impression, Min Qinglan was a person who liked to put on airs and timid.

Later on, she was frightened by her and did not dare to look for trouble in front of her. Even if her attitude towards her gradually improved, she would not express it so directly.

Just like the last time when she brought her the snacks that she had personally made, it was very awkward.

As she was thinking, Min Qinglan suddenly let go of Yin Xiaoxiao and stood up. She bowed deeply to Yan Jinyu, “I’m very sorry for treating you badly in the past. Although I don’t know who you are, I know that you contributed greatly to Xiaoxiao and Feng Li’s return. I represent the Yin Family here and sincerely thank you!”

“..” Yan Jinyu.

Needless to say, she was still a little unused to Min Qinglan’s sudden behavior.

Actually, Min Qinglan had wanted to apologize to her for a long time. It was just that she couldn’t bring herself to do it, so she took this opportunity.

“You’re welcome. I’ll treat Brother Nine’s family members who treats him as family like my family members too.”

It wasn’t that she would treat all Yin Jiujin’s family members as family. She would only treat them as family members if they treated Yin Jiujin as family.

These two were different.

It was also a disguised warning to Min Qinglan.

When Yin Jiujin saw this, he felt a little emotional. However, he was mostly touched that Yan Jinyu was always thinking for him.

As for Min Qinglan, when she heard Yan Jinyu’s reply, she looked up at her with a complicated expression.

She finally realized that Yan Jinyu really didn’t care much about the Yin Family.

She was special to the Yin Family because Jin’er was a member of the Yin Family.

She treated them like this because they were Jin’er’s family!

If it wasn’t because she cared about Jin’er, she wouldn’t even look at the Yin Family and them!

“No matter what, I have to thank you.”

Yin Shuguo also said, “Little Yu, your auntie is right. We really should thank you.”

Before she appeared, they couldn’t even find any information about the enemy, let alone find out that Yin Xiaoxiao and Feng Li, who had been in trouble for many years, were still alive.

Even if they could find out about this, they did not know how long it would take, or if they could successfully save them.

The Yin Family were all smart people. They knew very well what important role Yan Jinyu played in this matter.

“Yu’er, I also have to thank you seriously.” The elegant and otherworldly Feng Yun also smiled faintly. Then, he bowed to her. “Thank you.”

If she hadn’t appeared, he might still be cooped up in the courtyard and unwilling to go out, let alone find out that his parents were still alive and saved them.

“Cousin, you’re welcome. Cousin also contributed a lot. It’s not just me. Speaking of which, if it wasn’t for so many people and just me alone, I wouldn’t have been able to save Aunt Yin and Uncle Feng so quickly, let alone get rid of Liu Guang so quickly.”

Qin Jianjia wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes and smiled. “Alright, stop thanking one another. We’re family. Why are you all so distant?”

“I’ve already gotten someone to prepare the ancestral hall. Aunt, Uncle, let’s go to the ancestral hall to offer incense and report your safety to Grandmother first.”

As she spoke, she helped Yin Xiaoxiao up.

Yin Xiaoxiao recognized Qin Jianjia, but she didn’t expect Qin Jianjia to marry into the Yin Family.

They had indeed missed a lot over the years.

However, Yin Xiaoxiao wouldn’t say things like “I didn’t expect you to be the daughter-in-law of the Yin Family” or “I didn’t expect us to be family” at this time.

She nodded and let Qin Jianjia help her stand up.

Yin Xiaoxiao was surprised when she saw Qin Jianjia’s slightly protruding stomach. Then, she was filled with joy.

Her seniority was actually going to be raised!

How could she not be happy?

She did not show it. It would not be too late to talk later.

After that, Yan Jinyu and Yin Jiujin accompanied them to the Yin Family’s ancestral hall.

The Yin Family was especially lively today.

After visiting the ancestral hall and having dinner together, Yan Jinyu and Yin Jiujin didn’t stay long. The two of them returned to the Azure Garden first. They gave some space for others to catch up.

Yan Jinyu and Yin Jiujin could sense that with the two of them around, the elders restrained their emotions and didn’t reveal them completely.

They didn’t know if it was because the two of them were too scary or because the elders were too embarrassed to show their emotions in front of the younger generation.

However, the two of them who had returned to the Azure Garden, were rarely carefree.

The television in the living room was switched on. It wasn’t the news channel that Yin Jiujin usually broadcasted, nor was it Yan Jinyu’s usual cartoons.

At this moment, Yan Jinyu was watching the melodramatic idol drama that she usually played on her phone.

The television was not loud.

Yin Jiujin sat on the sofa with his back against it. Yan Jinyu lay on his lap.

He stroked her long hair and they watched television together.

Even without saying anything, the atmosphere between the two of them was inexplicably warm.

historical

After watching for a while, the episode of the television drama ended and it was time for the commercials.

Yan Jinyu retracted her gaze and turned around to look up at him. “Brother Nine.”

His hand that was caressing her long hair halted and he lowered his eyes to look at her. “Hmm?”

“Are you happy today?”

“Yes.” He was very happy.

Not only did they save her aunt and uncle, but his girl was also not injured. She also did not have to face danger all the time in the future.

Yan Jinyu grabbed his collar and arm and sat up.

She sat on his lap.

She wrapped her arms around his neck and rubbed her face against his. “I’m very happy too. There won’t be any rubbish people around us in the future.”

The two of them were wearing pajamas. When Yan Jinyu pulled Yin Jiujin’s collar and sat up, most of Yin Jiujin’s pajamas were loose because of her actions.

As the two of them hugged each other tightly, the surrounding temperature inevitably rose.

“Yes,” Yin Jiujin replied. He quickly raised her chin and kissed her.

About 20 minutes after the kiss, Yan Jinyu was already between Yin Jiujin and the sofa.

He hugged her and buried his head in her neck. He asked muffledly, “Little Yu’er, can the engagement party be held now?”

Yan Jinyu chuckled. He was really persistent.

Their relationship would not change whether there was an engagement party or not, but he was always obsessed with this matter.

Forget it. Since he wanted an engagement party so much, she would just satisfy him.

Anyway, she didn’t have to do anything. She just had to appear.

“Alright, you’ll arrange it.”

“Yes, I’ll arrange it.”

Yin Jiujin knew that she would agree, but he still couldn’t help feeling happy after hearing her personally agree.

This joy made the atmosphere even more “heated”.

His thin lips landed and he slowly removed her sleeping robe.

***

They did it on the sofa. He couldn’t even wait to carry her upstairs.

The television was on and the curtains were not closed. In the dark night, the night wind rustled the leaves outside the window.

During this period of time, they had been busy planning to deal with Liu Guang. The two of them had not interacted properly for many days.

Now that everything was settled, it was rare for him to relax. In addition, Yan Jinyu had agreed to Yin Jiujin’s engagement party, so Yin Jiujin was especially excited.

From downstairs to upstairs.

All night.

Yan Jinyu only woke up at three in the afternoon the next day.

For the next few days, Yin Jiujin didn’t go to the company, and Yan Jinyu didn’t go to school either.

The atmosphere in the Yin Family was very harmonious. During the meal, the two of them went to the main building. Occasionally, Yan Jinyu would stroll in the garden with Qin Jianjia, Yin Xiaoxiao, Min Qinglan, and the others, but most of the time, she stayed in the Azure Garden with Yin Jiujin.

She led a very unrestrained life.

On this Sunday, Qin Jianjia, who had not been out for a long time, suggested going shopping. She said that she wanted to buy something for her unborn baby personally.

The Yin Family was worried. Even if Liu Guang was dead now, it was no longer that dangerous outside.

Only when Qin Jianjia said that Yan Jinyu would accompany her did everyone feel slightly relieved.

However, even so, Min Qinglan requested to follow them.

Since Min Qinglan wanted to follow, Yin Xiaoxiao naturally had to too.

The reason was that she had not seen the outside world properly for many years.

There was really no way to reject this reason.

The four of them went out together and Yan Jinyu drove.

Yin Xiaoxiao sat in the front passenger seat while Qin Jianjia and Min Qinglan sat in the back seat.

“Yu’er, the time for your engagement party with Jin’er has been decided. I’ll be in charge of the guest invitations. Give me a list of the people you want to invite,” Yin Xiaoxiao said.

The engagement party would be held a month later.

If it wasn’t for the fact that he wanted to hold it on an auspicious date, Yin Jiujin wished he could hold it immediately.

He had already prepared the engagement party long before they returned to the capital.

“Alright, thank you, Auntie Yin.”

“Don’t keep calling me Auntie Yin. You and Jin’er are about to get engaged. It’s time to change your address. Call me Auntie like Jin’er in the future.”

It was just an address. Yan Jinyu didn’t mind.

She smiled at her. “Alright, Auntie.”

“That’s more like it.” Yin Xiaoxiao smiled very happily.

Suddenly, she thought of something and her smile faded slightly. She said hesitantly, “I’ve heard most of what happened in the outside world during the few days that I was back. I’ve also heard what happened after you returned to the Yan Family.”

“Although it’s not good, I still want to ask. You and Jin’er are about to be engaged. Do we need to visit the Yan Family?”

Logically speaking, they should visit them personally and discuss the engagement together.

However, since Yan Jinyu and the Yan Family fell out and even the severing of ties was officially reported by the news media, the Yin Family never mentioned this matter.

They were worried that they would hurt her, so they did not dare to mention it.

Now that the date had been decided, Yin Xiaoxiao thought about it and felt that it was better to ask Yan Jinyu’s opinion.

She actually hesitated for a long time before deciding to ask. However, she didn’t expect that after she asked this, Yan Jinyu’s emotions weren’t affected at all.

“There’s no need for that. Just send an invitation to the Yan Family and my aunt, who is living overseas. We’ll have a meal together when everyone comes to the capital.”

Yin Xiaoxiao couldn’t find any traces of sadness on her face.

How could she tell?

Not to mention that Yan Jinyu didn’t care anymore, even if she really cared, she didn’t want others to see her true emotions. Yin Xiaoxiao couldn’t tell at all if Yan Jinyu didn’t want her to.

“Yes, you still have an aunt. Look at my memory. I almost forgot.”

“Then we’ll entertain them properly when they’re all in the capital.”

Yan Jinyu smiled and nodded.

“Where are we going?” she asked.

“Let’s go straight to the Empire Mall,” Qin Jianjia said.

Actually, compared to Yin Xiaoxiao, Qin Jianjia and Min Qinglan were even more nervous after Yin Xiaoxiao asked Yan Jinyu this question.

After confirming that Yan Jinyu was really not affected, they felt relieved.

***

Half an hour later, at the Empire Mall.

As soon as they walked into a shop in the Empire Mall, they heard a commotion.

“Country bumpkin, why are you shopping in a luxury shop? Do you have money? You actually dare to snatch the gown that I like. I think you don’t want to stay in the capital anymore!”

When Min Qinglan heard the commotion, she frowned and quickly pulled Qin Jianjia aside. “Let’s go somewhere else.”

“You’re pregnant. Let’s not go to where there are troubles.”

Qin Jianjia didn’t insist. She was just here to take a look anyway. There were many shops, so she didn’t have to shop here.

Just as she was about to nod, Yan Jinyu stared at the noisy crowd and narrowed her eyes. Her aura changed instantly.

“Aunt, look after Sister-in-law. I saw an acquaintance. I’m going to take a look.”

They hadn’t interacted for long, but Yin Xiaoxiao could tell that Yan Jinyu wasn’t someone who would poke her nose into other people’s business. Since she was going to poke her nose into other people’s business and said that they were acquaintances, they should be close friends.

“Let’s go together. Don’t worry. Auntie is quite skilled. With Auntie around, your sister-in-law will be fine.”

Yan Jinyu had seen Yin Xiaoxiao’s skills before. Moreover, with her here, it was impossible for her to let anyone hurt Qin Jianjia under her nose, so she nodded in agreement.

Min Qinglan knew that they were formidable, but she was still worried. She held onto Qin Jianjia and refused to let go.

Of course, she followed.

She had interacted with Yan Jinyu longer than Yin Xiaoxiao and knew Yan Jinyu’s temper better.. She was also very curious about who could make Yan Jinyu willing to interfere in her business.
