Chapter 99: Clear Intentions

The next day, Yan Jinyu woke up at six as usual.

When she opened her eyes and saw the decorations in the room, Yan Jinyu was slightly stunned. It took her a moment to realize that this was Mount Jing, Yin Jiujin’s residence.

Last night, after Yin Jiujin carried her downstairs, she quickly returned to her room after dinner and didn’t stay in the living room for long.

She slept for more than half an hour and didn’t feel sleepy after that. It was just that.. she suddenly felt that after the intimacy she had with Yin Jiujin in the room, she didn’t dare to face him.

He was clearly fine when he carried her downstairs, but for some reason, after the meal, she felt very strange again. Especially when she looked up at Yin Jiujin at the dining table, the strange feeling in her heart was the most obvious.

She was always worried that Yin Jiujin would suddenly look up and realize that she was looking at him. Therefore, every time she looked at him, she would feel a little secretive.

Of course, Yan Jinyu, as the number one killer in the world of killers, wouldn’t admit to this.

He didn’t know why Yin Jiujin, who was vigilant, didn’t notice her sizing him up. Other than putting food in her bowl, he ate very calmly throughout the meal. He didn’t even look at her.

Whether Yin Jiujin really didn’t notice her sizing him up or not, Yan Jinyu didn’t have the mood to think too much. She only felt increasingly strange because she was alone with Yin Jiujin. Hence, after dinner, she hurriedly informed Yin Jiujin before going upstairs to her room.

historical

It was rare that she could not sleep.

She did not fall asleep until around three in the morning.

All these years, she had been very vigilant. She would wake up at the slightest movement. However, whether it was later on when no one dared to hurt her or when she was just an ordinary child who could die at any moment, she had never lost sleep.

That was because she needed to have more energy than her competitors in order to win.

Hence, no matter where and when, she would maintain her vigilance and sleep well. This habit had never changed from when she was young and unskillful to the time when she was young but more skillful than many people.

The habit remained till now.

She actually had insomnia last night!

Yan Jinyu was someone who would definitely not use her brain if she could not use it. However, once she used her brain, her brain was so flexible that ordinary people couldn’t compare to her.

It was around seven in the evening after dinner and she went upstairs and lay in bed until three in the morning. During this time, her mind was spinning.

After such a long time, how could she not understand the strange feeling that she had in front of Yin Jiujin?

In her heart, Yin Jiujin seemed to be different from others.

As for what was different..

If it were another man kissing her, she would have hated him and not also indulge him repeatedly. She would also not feel that the sensation was not bad and try it with him again.

As a killer and the number one killer in the world, she knew a lot of things.

Especially since she had Feng and Meimei, two sticky examples.

She must have fallen for Yin Jiujin.

Yan Jinyu gradually returned to her senses. She raised her hand and touched her lips, smiling slightly.

Since she wanted to treat Yin Jiujin well, there was nothing wrong with him being more important to her.

She also hoped that there was someone in this world whom she could treat without reservation. This way, she would no longer be like before, someone who cherished her life but could not find a reason to continue living and wandered aimlessly around the world.

She got out of bed and opened the window.

The morning glow filled the sky.

Another beautiful day.

She turned around and walked into the bathroom to wash up.

About half an hour later, Yan Jinyu washed up and took out a set of workup clothes from the closet to change into. She prepared to exercise as usual.

Just as she opened the door and walked out of the room, she saw Yin Jiujin walking out from the room beside her.

Yin Jiujin was no longer wearing his standard shirt, trousers, and leather shoes. He was also dressed in sportswear like her and had a pair of white sneakers on his feet.

This attire made him look more youthful. Perhaps it was because he was surprised to see Yan Jinyu, but his expression wasn’t as cold as usual. There was a hint of surprise in his eyes, and he didn’t look as sinister as usual.

His face was handsome and clean.

Yan Jinyu, who was a little surprised to meet him, felt her eyes light up.

Yin Jiujin felt different like this.

Yan Jinyu wasn’t someone who was shy. Since she understood her feelings for Yin Jiujin, she naturally wouldn’t hesitate to admit it.

She liked him like this. She was very happy to have met him the moment she stepped out of the room, so she did not hesitate to express her love and happiness in her own way.

She ran towards Yin Jiujin, jumped up lightly and hung onto him.

She moved very quickly. Less than 10 seconds had passed since their gazes met. Yin Jiujin didn’t even have time to retract the surprise in his eyes before she jumped up and hugged him.

Yin Jiujin hurriedly raised his hands to support her and stop her from falling off.

He was naturally happy that the girl was so clingy to him.

It seemed like he was right to let her think for a night.

That’s right. After carrying her downstairs last night, he had actually sensed her actions. Although he did not show it on his face, he was very happy inside.

He had thought that the young lady did not know anything because she was young.

However, if she really did not know anything, she wouldn’t sit at the dining table without saying a word. She would even look up at him from time to time as if she was afraid of being discovered by him. She would look at him for a while and then quickly retract her gaze. She looked at him again and again.

Since the girl was about to be enlightened, he would give her time.

The girl might look silly, but she was actually not rigid. Her mind was still very bright. If she was given time, she would always be able to understand something.

It was rather unexpected that she would figure it out so quickly. He thought that it would take some time for her to completely understand.

Just as Yin Jiujin was feeling happy, he felt a wetness on his lips.

One touch and she was gone.

Yan Jinyu wrapped her arms around his neck and looked into his eyes. Her eyes curved into crescents. “Brother Nine, good morning.”

Yin Jiujin’s heart skipped a beat, and his hand that was hugging her stiffened slightly. His eyes darkened slightly. Forget it, he smiled. “Good morning, silly girl.”

Then, he kissed her lips.

“Why are you up so early? Can’t sleep in your new bed?”

Yan Jinyu’s skin was fair, and the faint green shadow in her eyes was a little obvious. It was obvious that she hadn’t slept well.

Yin Jiujin actually knew how the shadows under her eyes were caused. However, she clearly couldn’t sleep, yet she still woke up so early. The only reason he could think of was that she couldn’t fall asleep on a new bed.

“No, it’s a habit.”

She hugged him tightly and praised him without any modesty, “Brother Nine, you look very good in this outfit.”

Yin Jiujin asked, “..I don’t look good in other clothes?”

Yan Jinyu hurriedly let go of him a little. She looked at him and shook her head. “Of course not!”

“Brother Nine, with that face of yours, you look good no matter what. It’s just that you’re different from the past you.”

Her words clearly suited Yin Jiujin very well.

His mood got even better. But the habit that she mentioned..

Yin Jiujin subconsciously frowned.

Ordinary 18-year-old girls would not have the habit of waking up around six. She..

He suddenly recalled the calluses on her hands when he first met her.

Since her experiences over the years could be fake, it meant that the calluses that she had developed after dropping out of school and working for three years after graduating from junior high were most likely fake too.

Then how did she get her hands full of calluses?

Also, she had nothing to do but she still woke up early. It seemed like she needed to train. How did she develop this habit?

Her driving skills were so good. Just this skill alone was enough to stop her from worrying about her life. Then, the calluses on her hands and the early morning habits she had developed were definitely not for working for survival.

Then why?

Humans were not born with outstanding abilities. Without a certain degree of learning and hard work, it was very difficult to truly grasp a skill. Her superb driving skills would not appear out of nowhere, and the calluses on her hands could not possibly grow out of nothing.

He suddenly wanted to know what the little girl had been through all these years, but he didn’t want to investigate her, nor did he want to ask her that.

Regardless of whether he asked or investigated, he was afraid that she would think too much about it if she found out.

Forget it. When it was time to know, he would naturally know. No matter how the young lady had lived in the past and how much she had suffered, she would stay by his side in the future.

With him around, he would definitely protect her and not let her suffer anymore.

He put her down gently. “Are you going for a run?”

Yan Jinyu nodded. “Yes, is Brother Nine going for one too?”

“Yes. Together?”

“Sure!” She had that in mind.

The two of them ran along the asphalt road in the manor for half an hour.
