Yin Jiujin's…
He actually dared to call the Nine Lords by his name! Even in the capital, not many people dared to call Master Nine by his full name!
Facing Yan Jinyu like that, Qiu Jian felt an inexplicable fear, especially when he met the smiling yet clear eyes of Yan Jinyu.
Not only Qiu Jian, everyone present, including Feng Yuan, was startled by Yan Jinyu who summoned Yin Jiujin by her name.
Luo Yikun's eyes blinked. Was Yan Jinyu not afraid because she was stupid? Or was he always so brave? Or did Master Nine not mind him calling her by her name?
If it was the first two, the previous plan was clearly feasible and would not take too long. Someone who was too innocent and did not know what fear was, far from being a match for a rich young lady like Qiu Jian. If it was the latter, then it was best to cancel his plan now. He did not have the ability to snatch someone from Master Nine.
However, he was unwilling to let such a rare beauty go.
He will wait and see first.
Suppressing the inexplicable fear in his heart towards Yan Jinyu, Qiu Jian sneered, "An engagement? Do you really think that you can successfully marry into the Yin Family with an engagement, Miss Yan? Let me give you some advice, Miss Yan. You should know your limits. Don't think of things that aren't worthy of you!"
"Oh? So, in that case, you can even make a decision for the Yin Family?" The smile on Yan Jinyu's face did not change. Even Yan Jinyun did not know whether she was happy or angry.
Even if Yan Jinyun heard of others, especially completely unrelated people, criticizing her matchmaking like this, she would probably lose control of her anger back then. However, Yan Jinyu was able to hide her emotions very well.
Once again, Yan Jinyun felt that Yan Jinyu was an unexpected person.
"Make a decision for the Yin Family". These words had frightened Qiu Jian.
He had the guts to spout nonsense in front of Yan Jinyu, but he did not dare to boast about it shamelessly. Even if the Qiu Family had some status in the capital, it was simply not enough compared to the Yin Family. Furthermore, the Yin Family had a ruthless character like the Nine Lord that they could not offend.
"I. I didn't say that! I just want to advise Miss Yan to have some self-awareness. There were many princesses in the capital who were more suitable to marry into the Yin Family than Miss Yan. Does Miss Yan think that she is more outstanding than the daughters of the respectable family in the capital? It is best if Miss Yan takes the initiative to cancel the engagement with the Yin Family so as not to embarrass herself."
The smile on Yan Jinyu's face widened slightly. He slowly took two steps forward and looked at Qiu Jian, "So, Miss Qiu, you not only want to decide for the Yin Family, but you also want to decide for me?"
After being trapped on Ghost Slaughter Island for so many years, the thing that Yan Jinyu hated the most in her life was that others interfered in her affairs. Qiu Jian's actions had already broken his taboo.
"Miss Qiu, do you know what happened to the people who wanted to decide for me?"
His smiling words had already given Qiu Jian a lot of pressure. With him standing up and Qiu Jian sitting down, the two of them were only separated by a glass coffee table. For a moment, Qiu Jian felt like he was suffocating.
She's surprised.
However, it was clear that Yan Jinyu's threat was unfounded. After all, anyone could say such harsh words, but not everyone could say such baseless and frightening words.
This Yan Jinyu…
No no No. No. Yan Jinyu grew up in a rural orphanage. He's just bluffing. He couldn't scare himself like this!
Although he had prepared himself mentally, when he looked up and looked into Yan Jinyu's eyes, Qiu Jian still felt a little guilty, "A-What happened to them?" Forgetit. As if he was cheering himself on, he shouted, "What kind of results can happen!"
"What could happen to them? Miss Qiu, do you want to give it a try?"
For some reason, a voice suddenly shouted in Qiu Jian's mind. No, he won't!
If he really shouted that, how could he face anyone?
He strengthened himself, "...Don't scare me. I'm not a scared person!" However, he could not understand why Yan Jinyu, who was clearly innocent and harmless, would give him such an indescribable fear.
How did he know that Yan Jinyu had climbed up from countless piles of dead people? Many people died at his hands. Even if he did not intentionally reveal it, there would still be an invisible killing intent that was hard to detect.
Not wanting to be suppressed in terms of presence, Qiu Jian tried to stand up. Unexpectedly, just as he was about to stand up, Yan Jinyu laughed softly.
"Huh."
That soft laugh shocked Qiu Jian and he fell back into his chair.
Not to mention the others, even the person involved, Qiu Jian, could not believe it.
He actually fell back in shock from Yan Jinyu's laughter!
Seeing everyone in the private room looking at him strangely, Qiu Jian felt extremely embarrassed.
He had actually lost so much face in front of so many people!
Everyone in the room was stunned by this scene.
Did they just witness Qiu Jian, who had been arrogant ever since they met, being frightened by the gentle laughter of the "village hick"?
But how is that possible?
M-maybe, Qiu Jian lost his balance? Doesn't it?
Some people think that way, but of course, there are also people who don't. For example, Yan Jinyun, who had seen Yan Jinyu act before, and Luo Yikun, who sat beside Qiu Jian. He also felt an inexplicable fear for Yan Jinyu for a moment.
Luo Yikun sat stiffly with his back leaning against the sofa. He did not dare to stare at Yan Jinyu opposite him. He lowered his eyes and let out a light breath.
That must have been his imagination just now, right?
"W-what's wrong with her? Did he lose his balance?" Xu Gui lowered her voice and asked Feng Yuan, who was beside her. He had asked out loud what most of the people in the room were thinking.
However, Xu Gui did not think too much about it. Regardless of whether Qiu Jian failed to stand up properly or if he was really frightened, he was really embarrassed right now.
He was happy because Qiu Jian lost face. Finally, he was not so sad anymore.
Serve him properly for being so arrogant! Serve him properly for looking down on the people of the Northern City!
Xu Xiaoxiao and Zhao Yue, who wanted to see Qiu Jian teach Yan Jinyu a lesson, were disappointed when they saw this. At the same time, they could only sneer inside. They really thought too much about Qiu Jian.
"I think so?" Feng Yuan stared blankly at Yan Jinyu's back and replied uncertainly.
Yan Jinyu did not care what they thought. He continued to look at Qiu Jian, who had fallen back and had an expression of disbelief on his face. "Miss Qiu, the Qiu Family in the capital?"
Qiu Jian's spirit suddenly shot up when he heard him mention the Qiu Family in the capital
How could he forget that the Qiu Family was behind him! This is the North City, not the capital. Even the Yan Family, the number one family in the Northern City, did not have enough status in front of the Qiu Family. How could he be feared by Yan Jinyu, who was not even appreciated by the Yan Family!
"Don't you think it's too late to ask me which family I come from?" He admitted that Yan Jinyu was indeed different from what he had imagined, but that was all.
He only had one goal to come to the Northern City this time around, and that was to meet the fiancee of the Nine Lord and make the other party retreat. He did not want to make this trip in vain.
He did not even dare to chase after someone like the Nine Lord. Yan Jinyu was only the daughter of a small family in the Northern City and one who lived a wandering life in an orphanage. He was in junior high school and did not get much attention from his parents. What right does it have to be Master Nine's fiancee!
There are candidates more suitable than him!
Not to mention the others, his good friend was a perfect fit, be it his family background or talent! Unfortunately, his best friend was too shy and too concerned with the rules. He obviously liked Master Nine to the death, but he hid it and did not dare to reveal it.
Since his good friend cares so much about Mr. Nine's engagement, he will help destroy it. This way, his best friend would not have to worry too much anymore.
Even without Yan Jinyu, he still had many love rivals in the capital. However, they were all easier to deal with than Yan Jinyu, who was the fiancee of the Nine Lords. At least, everyone has the same starting point. No one has an advantage.
Of course, this did not mean that he thought highly of Yan Jinyu. It's just that big families like them value legitimacy more. If they had this engagement, even if they could get the help of Mr. Nine, their reputation would suffer in the future, not to mention that their good friend was a well-behaved girl.
"Did Miss Qiu misunderstand something?"
Qiu Jian was stunned.
Yan Jinyu chuckled, "I didn't ask that because I am afraid of the Qiu Family in the capital. To be honest, I only found out today that there is a Qiu Family in the capital. Miss Qiu, do you think it's just Qiu? A family like you can scare me?"
Looking at Qiu Jian, who moved his lips and wanted to say something but could not say anything for a long time, Yan Jinyu continued, "If you want to make a decision for me, not to mention you, not to mention you, even the entire Qiu Family was not ineligible for."
"Why? Miss Qiu, do you not believe me? Its alright. If you don't believe me, you can try to do something to hurt me and see if your Qiu family can bear the consequences." He had spoken threatening words in such a calm tone.
Other than Yan Jinyun, everyone was a little scared by her words.
What did he rely on when he said that?
Master Nine?
Yes, Mr. Nine personally picked him up. It was said that on the day Mr. Nine picked him up, he even personally accompanied him to the mall.
Did Master Nine really think about it that much?
This is what everyone in a private room thinks. Naturally, that was also what Qiu Jian thought.
Before he could reply, Yan Jinyu continued, "Oh, right. Let me remind Miss Qiu. Yin Jiujin is my fiancee, Yan Jinyu. You should all not think about it. Otherwise, the consequences will not be as you all want them to see. Miss Qiu, you are a smart person. You should know exactly what I mean. When you return to the capital, Miss Qiu, don't forget to pass this message on to others."
"Alright, Miss Qiu wants to meet with me and me here. I've already said what I want to say so it's time I leave."
Yan Jinyu was not someone who would show mercy to her enemies. The reason why he released Qiu Jian so easily was because he did not see too much hostility from Qiu Jian.
In other words, Qiu Jian was not his true enemy. He had been on the verge of death many times, so he still had this instinct.
Since he was not his enemy, why would he bother to teach him a lesson? He would warn the enemy for no reason.
Its biggest advantage now is that these guys — who treat it as a stumbling block — have no idea where the ace is. Isn't this more fun?
As for Qiu Jian, if he still did not know what was good for him in the future, he would face him when he interacted with the more challenging characters in the capital.
Furthermore, by keeping Qiu Jian alive, he could make him send a message to the people in the capital who did not like him. It would also make them realize that Yin Jiujin was a person who had a fiancee and her fiance was not an easy target that could be easily bullied. In that case, if someone came looking for trouble again, they would probably not be a discarded character like Qiu Jian.
"Stop!"
Yan Jinyu stopped her steps and turned around, "Miss Qiu, is there anything else?" The smile on his face was very pure and harmless.
Seeing him like this, everyone present even suspected that he was not the one who uttered those vague words of threat.
"Do you know what you're talking about?"
"Miss Qiu, do you think I look stupid?"
He chuckled softly, "Miss Qiu, you don't need to worry. I have a good memory. Not only do I remember what I said, but I also remember what others said clearly. So, I remember what Miss Qiu said just now. It's best that Miss Qiu doesn't forget about it because I don't want to hear those words a second time. If I hear it a second time, Miss Qiu. No, I must say that your entire Qiu Family will probably be finished."
Staring at him in a daze, Qiu Jian felt a chill rise from the bottom of his feet and spread to his limbs.
What exactly was Yan Jinyu ... relying on to say such words! Moreover, he had used an expression and a smiling tone that was neither too rushed nor too slow!
How dare he!
However, Yan Jinyu clearly did not have any support, so why did she feel fear from the bottom of her heart?
Is it because of Master Nine? Could it be that his fear of the Nine Lord has reached a frightening stage? So much so that he was afraid of Yan Jinyu, who was only a woman treated differently by the Nine Lord, so far?
Qiu Jian could not figure it out, nor could anyone else.
However, what others could not understand was why Qiu Jian was so frightened by Yan Jinyu's words.
Yan Jinyu walked to the door and looked at Feng Yuan, who was standing at the side in a daze. He wanted to measure it but was afraid he would find it. Yan Jinyu smiled faintly, "Are you not leaving?"
"...Go, Go, Go! Of course, we're leaving!"
Xu Gui glanced at Luo Yikun and the others in the private room and quickly turned to shout, "Wait for me, I'm leaving too!"
Yan Jinyun did not say anything and just followed.
“Since you're already here, why don't you play for a while before leaving? Yuner, with our relationship, there is no need for us not to greet each other on such an occasion, right? By the way, I haven't officially met your sister yet. Aren't you going to introduce him?" It was Zhao Yue who spoke.
