The Atypical Young Lady Has Returned Novel - Chapter 194
Chapter 194: Another Wave Arises
After the plane arrived in the capital, Yin Jiujin got into the car that was waiting for him at the airport.
Lin Zimu followed and sat in the front passenger seat. It was only now that he finally dared to speak, “Boss, is something wrong?” He couldn’t ask others about it beforehand as the phone was in flight mode on the plane.
The car headed straight for the Empire Group’s new building.
The Empire Group building was just built and not renovated yet.
They were going to the office building beside the Empire Group. The Empire Group’s office in the capital was in this office building.
Lin Zimu dared to speak now because Yin Jiujin had just received Yan Jinyu’s call to ask if he had arrived in the capital. His frightening aura had dissipated greatly.
“Accident.”
Lin Zimu was indeed a top assistant. Yin Jiujin only said a word before he guessed what was going on.
He quickly took out his phone to search for news.
Accidents during the construction of buildings were not uncommon. Moreover, the Empire Building had been completed for a while and was now in the renovation phase.
There was no major accident during the construction, but there was an accident during the renovation. Five people died and eight were seriously injured.
This was not the most important thing. The most important thing was how dare someone report it so fearlessly when this happened in the Empire Building!
The sudden accident was already strange, but it was actually reported immediately. Even the Empire Group could not stop the news.
Was this a joke?
He had never seen anyone who dared to offend the Empire Group and its boss.
Under this piece of news, it was obvious that someone was guiding the public’s opinion towards the Empire Group’s disadvantage.
Who was so capable? Who dared to touch the lion’s den?
As he was thinking, the news on Lin Zimu’s hand disappeared instantly.
It was obviously removed.
This news could not be removed when the Empire Group stepped in and now, it was removed. It was as if this news had never appeared on the Internet. It was so clean that nothing could be found!
“Boss, the news on the Internet has been removed.”
Yin Jiujin’s expression darkened, and his beautiful eyes darkened.
It was obvious that he had nothing to do with the news being removed.
Lin Zimu was even more shocked.
So, what was the other party’s motive? To lure the boss back to the capital?
The news was not removed any other time, but as soon as the boss arrived in the capital. Other than the fact that the other party’s purpose was to lure the boss back to the capital, he could not think of any other possibility.
Why were they luring the boss back to the capital?
How could Yin Jiujin not have thought of this when Lin Zimu thought of it?
“Let’s go straight to the Mount West Villa,” Yin Jiujin said coldly. He was speaking to the driver.
Then, he looked at Lin Zimu. “Call Jiang Hao and ask him to invite everyone involved in this matter to the Mount West Villa as guests!”
Jiang Hao, the general manager of the Empire Group.
An important subordinate of Yin Jiujin.
Lin Zimu was shocked. There were countless people involved in this matter. Not to mention others, there were countless people who ignored the Empire Group’s warning and went ahead to publish the news.
He had a hunch that there would probably be a huge commotion in the capital now after the boss had been silent for many years.
So, what was the other party’s motive?
Was it to make the boss make a commotion and shock everyone so that they wouldn’t dare to offend the boss?
Lin Zimu was shocked and called Jiang Hao.
Just as Lin Zimu and Jiang Hao finished relaying Yin Jiujin’s instructions and hung up, Yin Jiujin’s phone rang.
He answered the call with a frown. “Speak.”
“Master Nine, the Lingering Garden is on fire.”
***
South City.
Yan Jinyu and Huo Siyu left the house early in the morning. Yan Jinyu planned to accompany Huo Siyu to shop for a while before she would go straight to the airport to pick Yin Jiujin up when he came over.
She didn’t expect to receive Yin Jiujin’s call after shopping with Huo Siyu for a while. He said that he had something to do and had to make a trip to the capital at the last minute. He couldn’t come to South City for the time being.
At that moment, Huo Siyu saw the obvious disappointment on Yan Jinyu’s face.
Huo Siyu knew that Yin Jiujin was coming over. She also knew that Yan Jinyu had specially investigated which hotel in South City was the best for Yin Jiujin. She had even booked the hotel.
After all, it was impossible for Yin Jiujin to stay in the Huo Family.
However, Yan Jinyu’s disappointment was quickly replaced by other emotions.
She received a call from Xi Fengling.
Xi Fengling told her about the accident at the Empire Building that was in the capital.
Yan Jinyu casually browsed the related news and then found an internet cafe nearby.
Even with her and Huo Siyu’s combined efforts, they could not completely remove the news on the Internet. They only deleted a portion of it.
As for the other part, they couldn’t delete it which could only mean that someone with computer skills above them was controlling it.
Among the four of them, Yan Jinyu was the best at controlling computers.
However, even Yan Jinyu couldn’t beat the other party.
The two of them sat in the internet cafe for a few hours. Only when Yin Jiujin arrived in the capital did all the news that they couldn’t delete disappear at a certain moment, leaving no traces.
Yan Jinyu hung up and called Yin Jiujin. Huo Siyu, who was sitting in front of the computer, frowned and asked, “Beauty Yu, could the other party be the same person who killed Old Smith?”
“I’m not sure,” Yan Jinyu said.
She looked serious.
If the other party was really the same person who killed Smith and had luckily escaped from Ghost Slaughter Island, then he could have targeted her. Why did he have to target Yin Jiujin?
Could it be that Yin Jiujin had been implicated by her?
However, even so, was the other party that stupid? Didn’t the other party know that provoking Yin Jiujin was only a momentary pleasure? He would definitely not be able to gain anything from Yin Jiujin’s counterattack.
Then why did the other party put in so much effort?
Using this bit of news to crush Yin Jiujin?
Impossible.
If Yin Jiujin could be defeated so easily, he wouldn’t be Master Nine, who could intimidate a large group of people with just his name.
“Regardless of whether they’re the same person, the other party’s intentions are really hard to guess. What’s the purpose of causing such a huge commotion and making everything calm down in such a short time? They can’t be playing with Second Young Master Yin, right?”
Huo Siyu was a little stunned.
“If he’s really playing with Second Young Master Yin, the price he has to pay is too high. I shiver a little when I think about how Second Young Master Yin will take revenge in the future.”
“Won’t the capital be turned upside down now?”
“Second Young Master Yin’s name will probably appear in front of the people in the capital in an extremely shocking manner again.”
“Could it be that the other party wants to see Second Young Master Yin use a fierce method to intimidate everyone again so that no one dares to offend his dignity?”
Huo Siyu and Lin Zimu thought of the same thing, but clearly, both Lin Zimu and Huo Siyu felt that it was impossible.
However, Yan Jinyu didn’t say anything.
It was possible.
If that was the case, what was the other party’s purpose?
Besides, she also thought of something else that even Huo Siyu did not expect.
However, it was only her guess. There was no evidence to prove it for the time being.
“Beauty Yu, do you want to go to the capital to take a look?”
Yan Jinyu looked at her.
Huo Siyu smiled. “Beauty Yu, don’t worry. I can deal with that scumbag Huo Sisi alone. I called you to South City because I thought you were bored and wanted you to join in the fun. Besides, we’ve almost finished torturing her. We’re just waiting to watch the show.”
Yan Jinyu glanced at her and said, “Alright, I’ll go to the capital first.”
“I’ll send you to the airport.”
They stood up and walked out of the internet cafe.
Just as the two of them stood up, Yan Jinyu’s phone rang again. This time, it was Min Rufeng.
“Feng.”
“Little Yu, among those people whose computer skills are above yours, who do you think was the one?” Obviously, Min Rufeng had also been handling this matter in front of the computer just like them.
Not for Yin Jiujin, but for Yan Jinyu.
Yan Jinyu stopped in her tracks. “Ghost Slaughter, Hei Yao and… Bai Ye.”
“But these people are all dead,” Yan Jinyu said without any emotions.
Huo Siyu, who was at the side, didn’t hear what Min Rufeng said on the phone. However, after hearing Yan Jinyu’s reply, she roughly guessed the contents of their conversation.
She was a little shocked.
Beauty Yu’s expression was calm. She couldn’t tell what Beauty Yu was thinking at all.
When Min Rufeng heard her words, he was silent for a long time before saying, “You don’t have to think too much about it for now. If it’s really one of the three people, based on the current situation, we still can’t see his intentions yet. Let’s wait first.”
“Little Yu, with your intelligence, you should have thought that if the other party wants to target us or you, they definitely won’t be stupid enough to attack Yin Jiujin. This won’t do them any good.”
“If this matter continues, not only will it not affect you at all, but it won’t affect Yin Jiujin either⦠It should be said that with Yin Jiujin’s usual style of doing things, his reputation will only grow after this matter.”
“From the looks of it, they don’t seem to be targeting Yin Jiujin and you. They seem to be helping you.”
Yan Jinyu didn’t deny it.
If Yin Jiujin used harsh methods to make his reputation even more resounding in the capital, it would only be more beneficial to her.
In the future, because they would be even more afraid of Yin Jiujin when she arrived in the capital, even if she was only the “daughter of a small family who grew up in the countryside without any backing”, no one would easily dare to look for her trouble.
“Feng, I have a guess about this.”
“What guess?”
Yan Jinyu was about to say something when another voice came from the phone. It was Xi Fengling.
She said, “I just received news that the Lingering Garden is on fire.”
Lingering Garden, which was Yin Jiujin’s grandmother’s asset, was now in Yin Jiujin’s hands.
It was something Yin Jiujin cared about.
Meanwhile, Yu Qingwan was in the Lingering Garden, whom she and Yin Jiujin suspected.
Xi Fengling continued, “It’s normal for an old building like the Lingering Garden to catch fire. However, isn’t this too much of a coincidence? It didn’t catch fire before or after, but as soon as Second Young Master Yin got off the plane. The news of the accident in the Empire Building was so big previously. I keep feeling that someone is deliberately making a big deal out of it just to lure Second Young Master Yin back to the capital.”
“You’re not the only one who feels that way,” Yan Jinyu said.
“Meimei, help me keep an eye on the situation in the Lingering Garden, especially Yu Qingwan. If she does anything abnormal, there’s no need to hold back. Just settle it directly.”
“I’ll set off from South City to the capital now.”
Xi Fengling misunderstood her. “Yu Qingwan? Beauty Yu, didn’t I tell you before that she doesn’t have that kind of relationship with Second Young Master Yin⦔
“That’s not it. She’s very likely related to Ghost Slaughter Island.”
