The Atypical Young Lady Has Returned

Chapter 39 - Nauseating Face

"Yun'er, you're here!" In the luxurious villa, a girl in an opulent gown led a few people to welcome the person who walked into the villa.

The person was dressed in a white evening gown. Her waist-length hair was let down, and she did not have much makeup on. She looked simple yet elegant. There was no smile on her face, and she looked like a cold goddess.

It was none other than Yan Jinyun, the top socialite in North City who had meticulously dressed up for the Zhao Family's daughter Zhao Yao's birthday party.

Among the people who went up to welcome her, the girl in the opulent gown was the star of tonight's birthday party, Zhao Yao.

Compared to Yan Jinyun's cold and aloof goddess-like demeanor, Zhao Yao's looks were more seductive. She was considered a hot and sexy beauty.

She looked behind Yan Jinyun and the smile on her face froze, "Yun'er, why are you alone? Didn't you say that you would bring your sister who just came back?"

As soon as Zhao Yao spoke, someone behind her chimed in.

"That's right. Didn't you say that you wanted to bring Eldest Miss Yan here? We were still thinking of using today's opportunity to get to know that sister of yours. Yun'er, you're so beautiful. I'm sure your sister isn't bad either." Even though she said that, the mockery in her tone was obvious.

"She's been missing for so many years. The moment she came back, the whole city was filled with rumors about her. I'm also very interested in your sister."

"Yun'er, you look so beautiful today. Where did you get this custom-made gown from? I'll go to them next time to get one too."

"Even if you are twins, that sister of yours is probably far inferior to you. I thought I would be able to see her today. What a pity…"

"Yun'er, you're clearly the only heir of the Yan Corporation but your sister suddenly appeared. Sigh…"

"That's right. I used to think that you would marry into the capital's Yin Family in the future. After all, your Yan Family has an engagement with the Yin Family. I didn't expect your sister to return after disappearing for so many years…"

Hearing their chatter, Yan Jinyun's expression turned even grumpier. When she looked at the girl who said that she wanted to marry into the Yin Family, he interrupted her with a cold gaze, "Don't say such things again in the future. The person who is engaged to Master Nine is my sister."

She would not have been in such an irritable mood when she heard these words in the past.

Putting aside the fact that she was no match for Yan Jinyu, just the fact that she heard Yan Jinyu's nonchalant tone when she picked up the phone in the afternoon outside the washroom in the restaurant after throwing up annoyed her.

No matter how capable Yan Jinyu was and how many people she had met outside, at least in North City and the Yan Family, Yan Jinyu was pitiful. At least, Yan Jinyun did not think that Yan Jinyu had a good life these few years. Yan Jinyu, who knew that she would feel terrible but still had to drink so much yogurt.

Since she had told Yan Jinyu that she would not consider this betrothal, she would definitely not think about it. Even if it was just a misunderstanding, she was unwilling to hear it again.

However, everyone was stunned for a moment when she said that. On second thought, they felt that Yan Jinyun was no different from how she was in the past. After all, they were the ones who talked about that in the past but Yan Jinyun had never chimed in.

Could it be that they had misunderstood in the past? Yan Jinyun had never had that thought before.

There were people who thought that way. Of course, there were also people who sneered after hearing Yan Jinyun's words. Zhao Yao was one of them.

Others might not know what Yan Jinyun was thinking, but how could she, who claimed to be Yan Jinyun's best friend, not know? She knew better than anyone else how proud Yan Jinyun was and how much she wanted to marry into the Yin Family. She also knew better than anyone else how much Yan Jinyun hated Yan Jinyu, her twin sister.

Despite thinking so much, Zhao Yao remained calm on the surface. "Alright, alright. Since she's not here, let's not talk about her. I'm really happy that Yun'er is here to attend my birthday party. As for Yun'er's elder sister, the high society circle in North City is only so big. One day, we'll be able to meet her."

Zhao Yao went forward and wanted to put on an intimate act to hold Yan Jinyun's arm. However, she suddenly remembered that Yan Jinyun usually didn't like to have physical contact with others, so she stopped herself, "Today is just a small banquet. I didn't invite many people, just some of my friends whom you know."

She called out to the people who had gathered around her, "Go and do as you please. I want to speak to Yun'er alone."

The crowd dispersed, leaving only Yan Jinyun and Zhao Yao.

Zhao Yao lowered his voice, "Yun'er, didn't I tell you to bring your sister here so that we can put her in her place? Why…"

Seeing that Yan Jinyun was frowning slightly, Zhao Yao quickly changed the topic. "I know you're kind, but those are clearly yours. Why should you let someone who disappeared for sixteen years suddenly snatch them away? Let's not talk about anything else. Just look at your Yan Family. Could it be that she still wants to fight with you for the Yan Corporation's inheritance rights in the future? As a good friend, I can't bear to see you suffer like this. We all know how outstanding you are. How can a person like her, who grew up in a rural orphanage and dropped out of school early, compare to you?"

"I told you before that if you can't bear to do it, we'll do it. She's your biological sister. We won't be heavy-handed on your account. We're just teaching her a lesson and letting her know her own worth. She won't dare to overestimate herself and compete with you again. We agreed a few days ago that you would bring her here. Why are you alone? Is she unwilling to come?"

"Forget it. If she's not here, so be it. We'll find another chance next time. If your sister wants to gain a foothold in North City, it's impossible for her to not show her face. As long as she shows her face, we'll have a way to make her retreat…"

"This is your birthday present."

Looking at the gift box Yan Jinyun handed over, Zhao Yao was slightly stunned. Then, her eyes darkened. Was Yan Jinyun interrupting her?

Looking at Yan Jinyun's expression, she seemed displeased?

She had said these words before. Although Yan Jinyun never joined in, she had never interrupted her. Why did she suddenly…

Did something happen that changed Yan Jinyun's attitude towards Yan Jinyu?

No, it shouldn't be. For someone as arrogant as Yan Jinyun, she looked down on her elder sister who grew up in the countryside. Even if she didn't have any ill intentions towards Yan Jinyu, she definitely wouldn't interrupt her when she said those words.

It was as if she was siding with Yan Jinyu. Yan Jinyun wasn't such a kind person. She probably felt unhappy that she couldn't bring Yan Jinyu over.

Zhao Yao took the gift box, "Thank you, Yun'er."

"Today is a happy day, so I won't mention these unimportant people. Let's go over there too. Everyone is waiting for you."

"I still have something on. Since the gift has been delivered, I'll take my leave first. Have fun." After saying that, she turned around and left without waiting for Zhao Yao to respond.

"Hey! Yun'er, why did you leave as soon as you arrived? Everyone is waiting for you…"

She turned around with a cold gaze, "Happy birthday."

Zhao Yao's words were stuck in her throat. "Alright, since you have something on, go ahead. We'll meet again next time."

Once Yan Jinyun left, the smile on Zhao Yao's face disappeared completely. Her expression was a little dark.

If not for the fact that the Zhao Family was far inferior to the Yan Family, as the daughter of the Zhao Family, she would not lower herself to curry favor with Yan Jinyun, the heir of the Yan Family! She had invited so many people of her age for her birthday party, but Yan Jinyun actually left just like that. Wasn't that equivalent to a slap to her face?

But even so, Zhao Yao had no choice but to try her best to please Yan Jinyun. She knew that even though Yan Jinyu, the eldest daughter of the Yan Family, had returned, she would never be able to win against Yan Jinyun. Sooner or later, the Yan Corporation would fall into Yan Jinyun's hands. If she wanted to make a name for herself in North City and get more attention from her family, she had to build a good relationship with Yan Jinyun.

Yan Jinyun sat in the Yan Family's car and clenched her fists in frustration.

She didn't want to hear what those people said, but she couldn't refute them directly because she had never stopped them from saying similar things before today and even felt that what they said made sense.

She had no right to stop them.

So, before today, did she also have that annoying face?

She clearly knew that she was not a good person, but the thought of her having that hateful face made her feel extremely annoyed.

Yan Jinyu, Yan Jinyu…

Why did she have to come back? Not only did she make others dislike her, she would also affect her.

But if Yan Jinyu didn't come back, wouldn't she not even have a home?

No matter how capable Yan Jinyu was, she had no family outside. Since her surname was Yan and she was also a member of the Yan Family, she had the right to return to the Yan Family.

The more she thought about it, the more annoyed she became.

"Second Missy, there seems to be someone chasing after us," the driver said.
