The Atypical Young Lady Has Returned Novel - Chapter 102
Chapter 102: Very Good At Disguising
Downstairs at the Yan Corporation.
Luo Yilin got out of the car. He had just hung up on a call asking Yan Jinyun out for a meal when he saw a familiar car coming over.
That was Feng Yuan’s favorite sports car. It had been specially modified and usually only used in the arena. Today, he actually drove it out and it even appeared here.
He didn’t care why Feng Yuan was suddenly willing to drive this car out. What he cared about was that Feng Yuan’s appearance here might ruin his plans.
He was calling Yan Jinyun just now to ask her out, but she said that she had a lot of things to do and couldn’t spare the time for now. They could meet again next time.
Next time?
It was Monday and he didn’t go back to school.
Although his school was also in North City, it required more than two hours of driving.
Hence, he specially applied for leave. He wanted to use the good opportunity of the Yan Corporation changing hands to invite Yan Jinyun out to celebrate.
The current Yan Jinyun was even more attractive to him than before. In the past, other than her own excellence, Yan Jinyun was only the heir of the Yan Corporation.
She was now the legitimate head of the Yan Corporation.
She was already in charge of such a big company at the age of 18. She was also outstanding. Moreover, the only person who could shake her position, Yan Jinyu, was obviously supporting her as the head of the family. In other words, Yan Jinyun’s status as the head of the Yan Family was stable.
There must be many families eyeing to marry her.
Even if they couldn’t “marry” her, there would still be many people who wanted to marry the Yan Family.
Marriage with the head of the Yan Family was a huge benefit.
Of course, he wanted to completely make her his before others had any thoughts!
She was busy, so it was fine if he couldn’t make an appointment! Could she even eat dinner in the office? Even if she settled dinner in the office, could she still sleep in the office at night?
He would be able to wait for her here. At that time, she would not reject his invitation even if it was for the sake of both parties.
On the contrary, it was very likely that she would be touched by him specially waiting here.
Even if Yan Jinyun was the cold and difficult top socialite, it couldn’t change the fact that she was only 18 years old.
At 18 years old, she was just a little girl. At this age, as long as he said a few good words and acted infatuated, how could he not be able to handle a little girl?
Everything was going according to his plan, but Feng Yuan had to appear at this moment!
Of course, Luo Yilin was not happy.
His gaze towards Feng Yuan was even a little unfriendly.
He looked at Feng Yuan with an unfriendly gaze. Feng Yuan did not give him a good attitude either. He frowned at him, “Cousin, why are you here?”
Yan Jinyun was someone who had been in the same class as him since kindergarten. Now that such a big thing had happened to the Yan Corporation, Yan Jinyun had to snatch power from her biological father. Not to mention how uncomfortable she would feel, she had just taken over the Yan Corporation. He wondered if she would be bullied by the elders of the Yan Corporation because of her young age.
If Yan Jinyun was bullied, Jinyu probably wouldn’t sit back and do nothing.
No matter if Jinyu was really as simple as she seemed on the surface, the Yan Corporation was still an established company after all. The elders of the Yan Corporation were not easy to provoke. Jinyu had just returned to North City not long ago, and there were so many unhappy things at her birthday party yesterday. It was best not to let Jinyu get involved in these matters.
Jinyu couldn’t be implicated, and Yan Jinyun didn’t have anyone to rely on, so he could only watch over her personally. In order to let Jinyu feel at ease and to protect Yan Jinyun from being bullied by others.
Hence, he specially applied for a week’s leave to stay at home to keep watch.
Yes, stay at home.
The Feng Family was mainly in the entertainment industry and was better at handling public opinion. He called the relevant person-in-charge of the company and asked him to control all the news about the Yan Corporation changing hands and try his best to guide the public opinion in the direction that was favorable to Yan Jinyun.
To him, this was just a call. He didn’t care much about it, so other than himself, only the person-in-charge who received his call knew about this.
Of course, because he didn’t care, he didn’t specially instruct the person-in-charge not to tell anyone, so this matter quickly reached Luo Linlin and Feng Chen’s ears.
The two of them didn’t say anything about this, but they had already reached a conclusion.
Since Feng Yuan had specially applied for leave to “take care of Yan Jinyun on Yan Jinyu’s behalf”, he naturally had to keep an eye on everyone and everything related to Yan Jinyun.
Feng Yuan had been holding a grudge against Luo Yilin for how he looked at Yan Jinyun, so he had been worried. Hence, he got someone to keep an eye on Luo Yilin. However, he realized that Luo Yilin didn’t return to school to attend classes today, which made Feng Yuan even more vigilant.
He could not stop worrying, so he chose a car from the garage at home. However, he did not know why he chose this particular car.
It was not even noon when he arrived.
The car was parked near the Yan Corporation building. He chose a spot where he could see the Yan Corporation’s main entrance and parked the car. He sat in the car and stared at it.
He was afraid that Luo Yilin would look for Yan Jinyun.
Luo Yilin looked like a gentleman and he used to think so too. However, he completely changed his opinion of Luo Yilin when he saw how Luo Yilin looked at Yan Jinyun that day.
If it was someone else who had feelings for Yan Jinyun, he wouldn’t interfere. However, if it was Luo Yilin, he had no choice but to interfere.
He didn’t wait in the car for almost six hours for nothing. Luo Yilin was indeed here!
“I’m meeting Yun’er for a meal. What about Cousin? Why are you here?”
Seeing that Luo Yilin said this without changing his expression, Feng Yuan sneered in his heart. Treating Yan Jinyun to a meal? Did he think he was a fool?
Although Yan Jinyun wasn’t a likable person, she would keep her word.
Since she had promised him that she would stay away from Luo Yilin, how could she have agreed to Luo Yilin’s invitation to eat with him on the first day she took over the Yan Corporation?
He pretended to be angry. “Yan Jinyun asked Cousin out for a meal?! What’s wrong with her? Didn’t she call me to pick her up and bring her out to celebrate? Why did she agree to Cousin’s invitation again?”
Hearing this, Luo Yilin almost couldn’t maintain his gentlemanly smile. Seeing this, Feng Yuan felt a little happy, but he didn’t give him a chance to speak, “But that’s not right. Yan Jinyun just called me and said that she called a few close friends to celebrate her taking over the Yan Corporation and also wanted to go play and relax. She asked me to pick her up at six.”
He raised his hand to look at the time. “It’ll be six in a few minutes. She should be coming down soon, right?”
He looked at Luo Yilin and continued, “Could it be that she called Cousin too? But that’s not right either. Yan Jinyun clearly said that other than the classmates in our class who are close to her, there’s no one else.”
Luo Yilin couldn’t maintain his smile anymore.
Busy?
How busy!
It seemed like he couldn’t wait any longer. Among the influential families in North City, his reputation was the best. He had heard more than one person say in private that he was the most compatible with Yan Jinyun in North City.
However, even he wasn’t liked by Yan Jinyun.
She had the time to ask her friends out to play, but she rejected his invitation with the excuse that she was busy…
As for why he knew that she was rejecting him, it was very simple. If she wasn’t rejecting him, she could totally say that she had another appointment and not use busyness as an excuse.
Suppressing his anger, he maintained his gentlemanly image again, “So you two have an appointment. Yun’er didn’t call me. I sent her a message to ask her out for a meal. Perhaps she’s still busy, so she didn’t reply to me immediately. I thought that since it’s already this late, I would have to eat dinner no matter how busy I was, so I came over directly. I was planning to wait for Yun’er downstairs before going to eat with her.”
Of course, that was a lie.
Luo Yilin could maintain this gentlemanly image for so many years, which meant that he was a very scheming person and was very good at pretending.
Just like now, even in a situation that was completely disadvantageous to him, he could still say such words to save his face without changing his expression.
He wasn’t worried that after Feng Yuan and Yan Jinyun met, his lies would be exposed because he no longer had the patience to wait.
He was going to make Yan Jinyun his today!
After Yan Jinyun became his woman, even if she would take such an unimportant lie to heart, she wouldn’t have the mood to care about it anymore.
On the second day after the Yan Corporation changed hands, the news that the head of the Yan Corporation, the top socialite in North City, and the young master of the Luo Family, whose status was second only to the Yan Family in North City, were lying on the same bed was exposed. Not to mention what would happen to her, just to salvage her image and stabilize the Yan Corporation’s share price, she had a lot of things to do. How could she have the leisure to care about the small lie that he and Feng Yuan had told her?
“Since you’re celebrating for Yun’er, do you mind if I join you? Luo Qiu has been having a high fever these few days. I’ve applied for a few days of leave to stay at home and won’t be going to school for the time being. I happen to have time.”
It was true that the eldest daughter of the Luo Family, Luo Qiu, was sick and had applied for leave at home.
As Luo Qiu’s cousin and classmate, Feng Yuan naturally knew about this.
Perhaps, Luo Yilin really didn’t ask for leave because of Yan Jinyun.
But no matter what, it was an undeniable fact that Luo Yilin had appeared at the Yan Corporation building.
He had designs on Yan Jinyun!
He thought that he had found a good excuse to send Luo Yilin away. Who knew that he would be so shameless as to follow them!
Alright, it was just an excuse that he had thought of casually. How was he going to clean up the mess now?
He didn’t have the ability to lie through his teeth like Luo Yilin. Yan Jinyun was busy and didn’t reply to his message? No matter how busy Yan Jinyun was, how could she not even have the time to pick up her phone to reply to a message?
To think that Luo Yilin could think of that!
“I can’t decide that. Today is Yan Jinyun’s event. With my “incompatible relationship” with her, I was able to get her invitation because we are classmates and have many common friends. I simply came to pick her up because it was on the way.”
