Chapter 128-129

Chapter 128: Indulgence ... There was also Qiu Cheng, who was standing beside Qiu Jian and was about to say to Yan Jinyu for saying something like “It’s time for the Qiu Family to disappear from the capital”. Qiu Cheng was also terrified. He took back his words. Since Qiu Jian and Qiu Cheng didn’t say anything, the rest of the Qiu Family naturally didn’t dare to say anything. They all thought that Yan Jinyu was relying on Yin Jiujin. 　 　 Finally, it was quiet. Yan Jinyu’s gaze turned to Qin Bailu again. Qin Bailu was naturally puzzled why Qiu Jian and Qiu Cheng didn’t say anything, especially Qiu Jian. Why did she suddenly stop? However, Qin Bailu couldn’t think too much about it. Looking at Yan Jinyu, Qin Bailu smiled graciously and appropriately. “Yes, does Eldest Miss Yan know me?” “No, I don’t.” “…” Qin Bailu’s expression froze for a moment. “I simply heard what you guys said earlier,” Yan Jinyu said again. “…” Qin Bailu. Before she could say anything, she heard Yan Jinyu say something that made her clench her teeth. Yan Jinyu said, “Of course. I didn’t call you that to get to know you. I just want to remind you that no matter who you are, don’t even think of getting close to my man.” She flicked a glance at the food container she was carrying. “Brother Nine will not eat what you brought over.” Brother Nine… It was that damn form of address again! Ever since Yan Jinyu appeared, she had already heard her call out this form of address a few times! Also, the receptionist of the Empire Group was actually so friendly to Yan Jinyu. What did this mean? It meant that Master Nine had brought Yan Jinyu to show her face in the Empire Group! The Empire Group’s people’s attitude towards Yan Jinyu completely depended on Master Nine! Since they were so respectful to Yan Jinyu, it could only mean that Master Nine really treated Yan Jinyu differently! Regardless of whether Master Nine treated Yan Jinyu like this because their engagement was decided by Old Madam Yin herself, it was enough to show that Yan Jinyu was different in Master Nine’s heart! Fortunately, Master Nine had someone else in his heart. Otherwise… She had never been so glad that Master Nine had that person in his heart! “I don’t like to beat around the bush. I know very well what Second Miss Qin is thinking. I can only advise you not to have any thoughts that you shouldn’t have because I’m too lazy to deal with you” It wasn’t that she was too lazy to think of how to deal with her but too lazy to deal with her. In other words, if she wanted to deal with Qin Bailu, she didn’t have to waste any effort at all. “Of course, I’m not saying this because I’m afraid of you. I simply don’t like my man to be targeted by others. That’s all. You’re not worthy enough to make me fear you.” “Also, it wasn’t that Brother Nine didn’t eat food that was taken out from the Yin Family, but food that was passed through your hands.” Qin Bailu couldn’t maintain her smile any longer. Her face twisted slightly. “Did Eldest Miss Yan ask Master Nine when you said these words? Who gave you the right to make such a decision for Master Nine? Does Master Nine know…” Before she could finish speaking, she was interrupted by a voice. “I gave it to her.” Everyone looked over and saw Yin Jiujin walking over. At that moment, the doors of the private elevator behind him slowly closed. He came straight down from his office on the 55th floor. Yin Jiujin’s eyes swept over them coldly and everyone went quiet. Quiet wasn’t enough to describe the situation. Qiu Cheng was still fine, but the other Qiu Family members were so frightened that they almost fell limp. This was all because of Yin Jiujin’s gaze. It was obvious how terrifying Yin Jiujin’s gaze was. Or rather, it was obvious how bad Yin Jiujin’s mood was now. Yin Jiujin was unhappy that the ignorant Qiu Family had come straight to the Empire Group and violated his dignity. He was even more annoyed that Qin Bailu made Yan Jinyu angry by sending him food. He did not care where it came from. Anyway, it wasn’t good if it made his girl unhappy. Of course, he wouldn’t give this person who made the young lady unhappy, any good attitude. However, he liked it when the young lady kept saying “my man”. She knew how to protect her food. Not bad. “Master Nine!” The two receptionists greeted him respectfully. “M-Master Nine…” Seeing Yin Jiujin like this, Qin Bailu felt a little afraid. However, when she thought of Yin Jiujin’s words, she couldn’t suppress the anger in her heart. He gave it to her? What did he give her? He gave Yan Jinyu the right to make decisions for him?! What right did Yan Jinyu have!? Based on that engagement? However, no matter how angry she was, Qin Bailu didn’t dare to show it in front of Yin Jiujin. She could only suppress her anger. She wanted to speak, but she was too afraid of Yin Jiujin’s dark gaze and couldn’t say a word for a long time. However, when Qin Bailu was able to speak up, the people from the Qiu Family didn’t even dare to breathe loudly. Yin Jiujin no longer cared about them and walked straight towards Yan Jinyu. When he turned his gaze to Yan Jinyu, he no longer looked as frightening as before. Not only that but there was also a hint of gentleness! Then, they saw him walk to Yan Jinyu and hold her hand! “Are you done with your errands?” His voice was so gentle as if this Master Nine was fake! Qiu Cheng’s body swayed and he almost fell to the floor. If he had known that Master Nine valued the eldest daughter of the Yan Family so much, he… or he should have said that if he had known that Master Nine’s gaze was so frightening, he wouldn’t have… He knew that the Qiu Family was finished! They were really finished! Qin Bailu and Qiu Jian widened their eyes in shock. They couldn’t believe that what they had seen and heard was real! H-how was that possible? Didn’t Master Nine have someone in his heart? Why was he so… gentle to Yan Jinyu?! If it were anyone else, it wouldn’t be strange to use the word “gentle”. However, this person was Master Nine, the “God of Slaughter” of the business world that everyone respected and used ruthless methods! Most importantly, he clearly had someone in his heart, but he still treated Yan Jinyu like this. Was it because he had a change of heart? Or was it simply because of his responsibility? The moment Yan Jinyu saw Yin Jiujin, her bad mood due to Qin Bailu instantly dissipated, especially when she recalled what he had just said. He gave it to her… He had given her the right. Yin Jiujin was indeed someone she had acknowledged. He kept saying things that made her happy. “Yes, I’m done. I even used Brother Nine’s name to get things done.” After saying that, she grinned at him, looking a little silly. At least, it was from Yin Jiujin’s point of view. He wanted to habitually raise his hand to rub the top of her head, but he realized that her long hair was tied up. With this rub, her hair was messed up, so he turned to pinch her face. “Silly, I’m your fiancé. Why do you need to ‘borrow’ my name? Shouldn’t you just use my name to do things?” No matter how stupid Qin Bailu was, she could tell that Master Nine felt more than responsible for Yan Jinyu with his indulging tone of voice. But Master Nine clearly had someone in his heart… Could it be that Master Nine liked to have more than one woman like other men? No, no way. Master Nine had no woman by his side all these years… except for that person. How could Master Nine like to have more than one woman? If he really liked her, with Master Nine’s status, he could have as many women as he liked. Then why did Master Nine treat Yan Jinyu… As she thought about it, Qin Bailu lowered her eyes slightly to hide the sinister look in them. No matter why Master Nine treated Yan Jinyu so differently, Yan Jinyu couldn’t stay! That person in the capital was protected by Master Nine. She couldn’t touch her, but not Yan Jinyu. Although Master Nine was often in North City and Yan Jinyu was also in North City, Yan Jinyu wasn’t like the person in the capital who didn’t leave her house. As long as she had the intention, she would always be able to find an opportunity to lay her hands on Yan Jinyu! Just as Yan Jinyu was about to glare at him and slap his hand away, Yin Jiujin retracted his hand. He turned back and saw the group of people standing behind him. He frowned slightly. “Do you need someone to chase you away?” “Or it isn’t enough for the Qiu Family to disappear, and you guys want to disappear too?” Everyone in the Qiu Family was shocked, especially Qiu Jian. She quickly said, “I’m sorry, Master Nine. We came here this time to sincerely apologize to Miss Yan for my previous mistake. We didn’t have any other intentions. We especially came to the Empire Group because we can only see Master Nine if we wait here, so we…” “Are you the one who feels that Little Yu isn’t compatible with me?” Yin Jiujin interrupted her lightly. Qiu Jian was stunned. Then, she realized what he was saying and was shocked, “Master Nine, Master Nine, I-I…” She couldn’t utter a complete sentence after saying “I” for a long time. If Qiu Jian hadn’t said anything, Yin Jiujin wouldn’t have thought of her. “Are my affairs something that you can interfere in?” “You know better than me who’s compatible with me?” The more she listened, the more terrified Qiu Jian became. Even though she didn’t dare to look up at Yin Jiujin’s expression. “No, no, no. I’m sorry, Master Nine. I’m sorry… I-I didn’t do it on purpose. I was careless with my words that day. I’ve already been taught a lesson and am bedridden. Master Nine, please forgive me for speaking carelessly. I won’t dare to say such words again in the future. I’m sorry… I’m sorry…” “Initially, the Qiu Family only needed to publicly announce an apology. At the same time, you would have to compensate for the psychological damage and this matter would be considered over.” Hearing that, Qiu Jian and the people from the Qiu Family felt their hearts turn cold. Then, they all looked desperate. They were extremely regretful! “Get lost!” Qiu Cheng hurriedly pushed Qiu Jian’s wheelchair and left. The Qiu Family members also hurriedly followed. The Qiu Family was finished. If they could make it in time, they could still go back and make some amends, even though that was impossible. Yin Jiujin glanced at Qin Bailu, who was still standing there. “You want to stay here as a guest?” Qin Bailu was about to reply in surprise when Yin Jiujin continued, “Mount Jing has many rooms to entertain guests. I’m afraid you’ll have to stay there as a guest forever after you enter.” “…” Qin Bailu was terrified! The smile on her face froze. “I have something on, so I’ll be leaving first. I’ll put the two dishes that my sister asked Grandma Wu to specially make here. I’ll visit you again next time.” Then, she ran away. It was as if something was chasing her. Yin Jiujin glanced at the thermos box that Qin Bailu had placed on the front desk and said indifferently, “Throw it away.” That was for the two receptionists. He held Yan Jinyu’s hand and took the private elevator upstairs. *** Two weeks later, after the small farewell party for Yan Ruyu and her family ended and on their way back to Mount Jing, Yan Jinyu was surrounded by killers. It wasn’t simply finding gangsters to gang upon them, but a real assassination to kill them. At that moment, other than Yan Jinyu, there was also the chauffeur Cheng Lin and… Yin Jiujin, who had suddenly appeared during the farewell party. However, Yan Jinyu didn’t know if these people were after her or Yin Jiujin at the beginning. She was not nervous. Instead, she was a little excited. She finally had a chance to perform in front of Yin Jiujin! She had been Yin Jiujin’s bodyguard for two weeks, but she had never found a chance to show her skills. However, because she had always been by Yin Jiujin’s side and had a lot of food placed in front of her, she had become rounder. Yin Jiujin’s super vigilance allowed him to discover the situation outside the car immediately. At that moment, the car arrived at the most desolate part of the journey from the city to Mount Jing. There was nobody here. There was maple tree forest on both sides of the road. It was summer and the maple trees were lush. It was almost evening and it was already a little dark. Furthermore, they were driving in the dense maple forest so they couldn’t see the road very clearly. However, no one had dared to do anything here in all these years. This was because although this place was still a distance away from Mount Jing, this path only led to Mount Jing. Yin Jiujin was usually the only one who passed through it. Who dared to have any ideas on him? “Little Yu…” Yin Jiujin was about to comfort her when he saw that Yan Jinyu’s expression remained unchanged. She even gave him a huge smile. “Brother Nine, don’t worry. Have you forgotten? You have a bodyguard by your side! Don’t worry, I’ll protect you! Moreover, it’s time for you to witness my power! In case you keep calling me silly!” “…” Yin Jiujin. “…” Cheng Lin, who was in the driver’s seat. Wasn’t Miss Yu joking about being Master Nine’s bodyguard? Moreover, wasn’t Miss Yu too calm after being stopped? Oh, she didn’t seem to be calm. Instead, she was inexplicably excited? *** Chapter 129: Jinyu Strikes ... “Master Nine, there are six people in total. The other party has guns. I’m not sure if there are any snipers.” As soon as Cheng Lin finished speaking, Yan Jinyu and Yin Jiujin said at the same time, “No.” They meant that there were no snipers. After saying that, the two of them looked at each other. Yan Jinyu smiled, and Yin Jiujin looked at her with a complicated gaze. Cheng Lin had received a good deal of professional training and yet he couldn’t accurately sense if there were any snipers hiding in the dark, but she could… It seemed like his understanding of the girl was far from enough. This was good too. Even if he couldn’t take care of her, the girl still had the ability to protect herself. She just didn’t know where her capabilities came from. She was clearly only 18 years old… However, he had forgotten that when he left the army at the age of 16, other than his temperament, his ability was about the same as now. However, after confirming that there were no snipers and that there were only six assassins who weren’t considered top-notch, Yan Jinyu and Yin Jiujin confirmed who these people were coming for. If they were here to kill Yin Jiujin, even without a sniper, they wouldn’t only find six ordinary killers. In other words, these people were here for Yan Jinyu. Moreover, the other party didn’t know her background. Otherwise, they wouldn’t have sent these few people to kill her. In addition, other than Cheng Lin, who was driving, Yan Jinyu was the only one in this car. Yin Jiujin had suddenly appeared midway. Other than the few people at Yan Ruyu’s family’s farewell party, no one else knew that Yin Jiujin would return to Mount Jing with Yan Jinyu. The six killers lying in ambush here naturally did not know that either. All in all, these people were here for Yan Jinyu. Upon realizing this, Yin Jiujin’s eyes suddenly darkened. Yan Jinyu smiled faintly. Someone wanted to kill her. They were really… tired of living! One had to know that she cherished her life the most! However, she thought that she finally had the chance to do what Yin Jiujin’s bodyguard should do—protect him. It turned out that he was still implicated by her. Crack! Yin Jiujin and Cheng Lin took out their pistols from the hidden compartment in the car. Yin Jiujin didn’t move, but Cheng Lin was already forced to stop the car. He rolled down the car window and was about to poke his head out to deal with those people when Yan Jinyu said, “You don’t have to do anything. I’ll do it.” Cheng Lin was stunned. When he turned back to look at her, she could clearly see the bewilderment in his eyes that said,?“Are you joking?” Yan Jinyu smiled faintly. “Open the car door. I’ll get out.” At this moment, gunshots were already coming from outside. Bang, bang, bang. They were shooting straight at their car. It was a professional bulletproof modification. There were constant attacks outside the car, but the car was unaffected. Cheng Lin looked at Yin Jiujin and asked him to make the decision. Although he didn’t agree, his status didn’t allow him to ask too much about Yan Jinyu’s decision. “No!” Yin Jiujin said. Of course, Yin Jiujin didn’t agree. Even if he knew that Yan Jinyu might really be capable. The situation outside the car was such that six people attacked at the same time. It was not an exaggeration to describe it as a “rain of bullets”. What if she got injured accidentally after getting out of the car… He would never allow that to happen. Yan Jinyu smiled, “Brother Nine, you don’t have to worry. I’ve seen bigger scenes than this. Just this alone can’t hurt me at all.” Just three years ago, she had personally destroyed Ghost Slaughter Island. That was an entire island, and the area it covered was not small. However, because the island was isolated and not under the jurisdiction of any country, the news of the island being blown up was suppressed by Yan Jinyu and the other three people at the same time. Other than a few people who knew about this matter, there were no related reports from the outside world, so this matter didn’t spread widely. “That won’t do either!” Yin Jiujin stared at her without any intention of compromising. Cheng Lin could tell after this. Miss Yu was not joking. She seemed to really have some ability! Actually, when he found out that Miss Yu didn’t panic at all when she saw the situation outside, and even had a hint of excitement, he should have thought that Miss Yu wasn’t simple. As for how not simple she was, that was not his concern. After all, Master Nine would definitely be able to tell when he could. Master Nine didn’t even say anything, so why should he speak? “Brother Nine…” “No way even if you act coquettishly!” Yan Jinyu’s hand that was tugging at his sleeve paused. She wasn’t acting coquettishly! She was the number one killer, how could she act coquettishly? Instead, she let go of his sleeve and turned to hug his arm with both hands. “Brother Nine, these people are obviously here for me. I’ve always liked to take revenge on the spot…” Anyway, things were different now. In the past, she was under control and could only endure it. Ever since Ghost Slaughter Island was destroyed by her, she was no longer under any control. She had since developed the habit of taking revenge on the spot. “Since someone is bullying me, I naturally have to go personally. How about this? If Brother Nine is really worried, will you get out of the car with me? Don’t make a move. Just watch from the side. If I really can’t handle it, you can help me. How about that?” Yin Jiujin looked at the arm she was hugging and turned his gaze to her face again. “Do you really want to take action personally? They’re just a few small fries. Cheng Lin can handle them alone.” If he were sitting in the back seat alone, he wouldn’t have taken out his gun from the secret compartment. He wanted to protect her as soon as possible since she was beside him. “Of course!” Yan Jinyu glared at him. “It’s all because you keep saying that I’m silly, Brother Nine. It wasn’t easy for me to find a chance to prove that I’m indeed very formidable. Of course, I don’t want to miss it!” Wasn’t that silly? Who would always want to prove herself to the person she liked? Didn’t girls usually want the person they liked to see their weaker side? “Brother Nine, you have to believe me. These few people really can’t hurt me.” “You know that I can’t stand you acting coy.” “…?” Yan Jinyu. What was that supposed to mean? What did he mean by that? He couldn’t stand her acting coy?! No, she wasn’t acting coy! Cheng Lin lowered his presence and pretended not to hear anything. “I’ll go first. You follow me,” Yin Jiujin thought since she had repeatedly acted coquettishly to him because of this and had promised to try her best to obey him in the future, he naturally had to give in to her. Even if she didn’t even have the ability to do anything, there were only a few people. He was completely confident that he could guarantee her safety. It was good that he agreed. Yan Jinyu didn’t care if she followed him or not. Anyway, after getting out of the car, she would be able to settle those people very quickly. She nodded repeatedly. “Alright, alright. I promise to follow Brother Nine.” Yin Jiujin opened the car door and got out. Yan Jinyu followed closely behind. At that moment, there were still continuous gun attacks outside the car. The bullets were all blocked by the car door Yin Jiujin had pushed open. When they saw who got out of the car, the six killers stopped at the same time. Two of them even subconsciously took a few steps back with fear on their faces. “H-how could it be… Master Nine?!” Yan Jinyu stuck her head out from behind Yin Jiujin and smiled as she waved at them. “Me too.” She walked out and stood beside Yin Jiujin. She faced the assassins without dodging and smiled faintly. “From the looks of it, you really aren’t here for Brother Nine. So, you’re here for me?” The faint smile gradually turned sinister. “Tsk, there are many people who want to kill me. Unfortunately, the person who can take my life has yet to appear.” The assassins were shocked, but before they could be terrified, they saw Yan Jinyu move quickly. The assassin closest to her fell to the ground. A cutthroat move. Right then, Yan Jinyu was holding a small knife in her hand. Yin Jiujin remembered that this small knife was a fruit knife he had placed in the car previously. It was about ten centimeters long and one centimeter wide. He knew that she had some ability, but he did not expect her to be able to kill someone without batting an eye. He was shocked, but his heart ached even more. How could there be so many people in the world who killed without batting their eyes? She had no time to think. She held the gun tightly in her hand in case someone attacked her. “You…” One of the frightened killers was about to speak when Yan Jinyu moved quickly and killed him. The remaining four killers were only filled with shock. They hurriedly found a place to hide, picked up their guns, and shot randomly. Yin Jiujin was very fast. With two bangs, he finished two of them before they could find a hiding place. One of them was pierced through the heart by the knife Yan Jinyu threw out and died on the spot. This way, there was only one killer left out of the six. This was still because from Yin Jiujin’s angle, that killer was coincidentally blocked by Yan Jinyu. Although Yin Jiujin was confident that he could take the killer’s life without injuring Yan Jinyu, he didn’t dare to take the risk with Yan Jinyu, even though the chances of Yin Jiujin injuring Yan Jinyu were less than one in 10,000. In addition, he saw a bullet heading towards Yan Jinyu. In that moment of hesitation, the killer successfully hid behind the big sycamore tree by the road. As for Yan Jinyu, she didn’t have any extra hands to deal with him. The four of them attacked at the same time, and more than ten bullets were coming at her! She threw a small knife with one hand to kill the person in front of her while dodging the bullets. In a flash, she deftly avoided most of the bullets, but two of them were unavoidable! Actually, she could have avoided it, but the killer, who had already hidden behind the tree, reached out with his gun and attacked her again. “Little Yu!” As he shouted, Yin Jiujin shot the two bullets down. The bullets were so fast that he could actually hit them! This series of actions seemed to be complicated, but it actually all happened in the blink of an eye. If they were an ordinary person, they would never have such a fast reaction at such a time. Seeing that the bullet that was flying over was about to hit Yan Jinyu, Yin Jiujin’s pupils constricted slightly. For the first time in his life, he broke out in cold sweat. “Be careful!” At the same time, he almost instinctively ran towards Yan Jinyu. He actually had the intention of blocking the bullet for her. In the next second, Yin Jiujin was stunned. Cheng Lin, who quickly got out of the car after he saw the situation, was stunned. The killer hiding behind the tree was even more stunned. No, the killer wasn’t just stunned. Upon seeing this scene, there was only endless fear and panic in his heart. He stared at Yan Jinyu with wide eyes, “Chi!!!”
