Chapter 33  : Being Targeted

“I don’t talk to idiots.”

“Who are you calling an idiot?!”

Yan Jinyun didn’t want to bother with him at all. She looked at Yan Jinyu, who was protected behind him. “Sister, let’s go and eat. Don’t bother about him.” He returned to her gentle smile.

Yan Jinyu looked at her quietly. Feng Yuan, on the other hand, felt extremely disgusted, “Look at you. You’re putting on an act again.”

She turned back and looked at Yan Jinyu. “Jinyu, I’m telling you, don’t believe her. Don’t look at how she’s all smiles and gentle. Her heart is really black. She’s treating you so well now because she wants you to let down your guard and then she will scheme against you.”

Seeing Yan Jinyu looking at him with her round eyes, Feng Yuan hurriedly explained, “Oh right, I forgot to introduce myself. My name is Feng Yuan. Your grandmother is my great aunt. I’m a few months older than you so you should call me cousin.”

“You just came back and don’t know how evil people can be. You can’t just judge a person by their appearance. Yan Jinyun isn’t a good person. Don’t be fooled by her appearance. If you believe me, I’ve been in the same class as her since kindergarten. Three years in kindergarten, six years in primary school, three years in junior high school, three years in senior high school. All of these added up to almost fifteen years. I know best what kind of person she is. Don’t be like those people, foolishly thinking that she’s so gentle and kind. Those people actually said that she’s the top socialite in North City. Can’t they see how evil she is inside?”

“Feng Yuan, are you crazy? What does it have to do with you whether I’m a good person or not? Why are you such a busybody? Why do you care so much?” Yan Jinyun never denied that she wasn’t a good person, but she still felt a little uncomfortable when someone pointed it out.

No one wanted to be a bad person.

Yan Jinyu didn’t think that Feng Yuan was spouting nonsense all of a sudden. After all, Yan Jinyun was indeed plotting against her previously.

If she was just an ordinary young lady who had wandered in the countryside for many years, Feng Yuan’s reminder was undoubtedly crucial to her. The Feng Family was no match for the Yan Family in North City, but they had offended the Yan Family more than once for her. Feng Yuan, the heir of the Feng Family, did not hesitate to offend Yan Jinyun, the Yan Family’s heir, in front of her…

Even though she didn’t need the Feng Family and Feng Yuan to do this, she would still accept their kindness.

“Who cares about you? Dream on! I’m afraid that you’re plotting against Jinyu!”

“Jinyu, are you going to have a meal with her? Don’t join a pretentious person like her. What do you want to eat? Cousin will treat you.”

Before Yan Jinyu could say anything, Yan Jinyun beat him to it, “Who cares about your treat? Is our Yan Family short of money?”

She looked at Yan Jinyu, “Ignore him. This person has never liked me.” She paused and looked at Feng Yuan, “However, since he likes to poke his nose into other people’s business, you can look for him if you want to shop or find out if there’s anything fun in North City. He likes to poke his nose into other people’s business anyway.”

Seeing Yan Jinyu smiling at her, Yan Jinyun stomped her feet. “Let’s go, I’m starving!”

Yan Jinyu nodded at the dazed Feng Yuan and then followed her.

As Feng Yuan watched the two of them walk out of the cold drink shop, his expression became increasingly strange.

Yan Jinyun’s words just now were indirectly telling Jinyu that he could be trusted? Was she thinking for Jinyu’s sake? Ever since her great aunt passed away, didn’t the Yan Family stop searching for Jinyu’s whereabouts and even thought of ways to get her engaged?

Was Yan Jinyun sick?

Or was this her new method? Did she think that he had seen through her and wanted to change her strategy to gain his trust before scheming against Jinyu when he let his guard down?

Feng Yuan shuddered at this thought.

No, Jinyu looked like an extremely innocent girl. She was no match for a black-hearted person like Yan Jinyun. He had to follow her and find out what intentions Yan Jinyun had!

“Wait a sec! I haven’t eaten either. Let’s go together!”

He tried to rush forward as he spoke. If the girl hadn’t grabbed his arm, he would have forgotten all about her.

“Brother Yuan, do you want to eat with them?”

“Yes, Yan Jinyun is very cunning. Jinyu is so innocent. She will be at a disadvantage if she goes alone with Yan Jinyun. I have to go take a look. You can go back first.”

The girl’s expression stiffened, “Brother Yuan, I’m your girlfriend. It’s rare for us to go out on a date. Why are you leaving me behind?”

Feng Yuan thought that he wouldn’t be able to catch up with them if he delayed any further. He didn’t pay much attention to the girl’s expression, “Xiaoxiao, I have something urgent to attend to today. You go back first and we’ll meet again next time.”

However, Xu Xiaoxiao refused to let go of his arm. “Am I not as important to you as that distant cousin of yours? We’ve been together for half a year and today is only our third date.”

“On our first date, you brought me to the internet cafe to play games and completely ignored me. On our second date, you brought me to the bar. You drank with your buddies the whole time and didn’t care about me at all. It wasn’t easy for us to have a third date on the weekend. You promised to let me arrange the schedule for the whole day. You promised to only accompany me today. Even if your parents called you and asked you to go home, you ignored them. Now, you actually want me to go back first.” Xu Xiaoxiao teared up as she spoke. Her delicate and weak appearance was very pitiful.

However, Feng Yuan, who was worried that he wouldn’t be able to catch up with Yan Jinyu and Yan Jinyun, didn’t have the mood to pay attention to it. He frowned impatiently. “I’ve already said that I’m not the kind of person who knows how to coax girls. But you said that no matter what, you have to be with me. You’re also my buddy’s cousin. You’ve been chasing me for three years so if I still don’t agree, it would be too unreasonable. That’s why I agreed to try it with you. Since you can’t take it, let’s break up.”

As he spoke, he moved her hand away. Xu Xiaoxiao hurriedly hugged his arm tightly. “Brother Yuan, I’ll go back. Don’t let me break up with you. I’ve liked you for three years and it wasn’t easy for us to be together. I don’t want to break up!”

Feng Yuan felt that it was a pity that he could not take the opportunity to split up with her. If he had known earlier, he would not have agreed to it just because of a few words from his brother.

“Go back first then. Be careful on your way back.”

He chased after them as he spoke. Xu Xiaoxiao looked at his back with a vicious gaze.

He had clearly agreed to it. It was all Yan Jinyu’s fault. If she hadn’t suddenly appeared, her date today wouldn’t have been ruined!

Since Yan Jinyu was not well-liked in the Yan Family and even Yan Jinyun, her biological sister, did not like her, then she would lend Yan Jinyun a helping hand and get rid of Yan Jinyu, this stumbling block! How dare she come and ruin her date!

As for why she could tell what kind of person Yan Jinyun was, it was naturally because she had liked Feng Yuan for many years and always paid more attention to him. Feng Yuan didn’t like Yan Jinyun, and she had seen Yan Jinyun and Feng Yuan quarreling many times.

That Yan Jinyun was a far cry from the top socialite in the eyes of outsiders. Hence, no matter how well Yan Jinyun pretended, she could tell that Yan Jinyun didn’t like Yan Jinyu.

It was understandable too. She was the only heir of the Yan family, and she might even marry into a top-notch family like the Yin Family in the future. Now that Yan Jinyu suddenly appeared, anyone would have disliked her.

She could not do anything to the eldest daughter of the Yan Family alone but she could borrow Yan Jinyun’s hands. She only needed to exaggerate the situation.

Yan Jinyu still didn’t know that she was being targeted for no rhyme or reason.
