The Atypical Young Lady Has Returned Novel - Chapter 199

Chapter 199: A Disgusting Person

As soon as Yin Jiujin walked out of the Elegant Court, he saw the three people standing outside the courtyard.

One of them was Cheng Lin, who had gotten out of the car to greet the two people when he saw them. The other two were Yin Yuhan and Qin Jianjia.

They thought that Yin Jiujin had returned to the Azure Garden where he lived, but they didn’t expect him to come to Elegant Court.

The two of them didn’t go in. They probably knew that Feng Yun didn’t like people stepping into his courtyard without permission, so they waited outside.

“Jin’er, you… saw Yun’er?” Speaking of Feng Yun, Qin Jianjia had only heard of his name and had never seen him before.

“Mm-hm.”

“Did you return to the Yin Family to specially visit Yun’er?”

Just as Qin Jianjia finished asking and before Yin Jiujin could reply, Yin Yuhan continued, “Why did you come to see Yun’er?”

“To see if he’s dead.”

“…” The three of them.

Cheng Lin knew why Yin Jiujin was here. In that case, the incident in the Empire Building was related to the “Yun’er” they were talking about?

But who was Yun’er?

He had been by his boss’s side for so many years, but he didn’t know that there was such a person in the Yin Family.

Yin Yuhan was speechless inwardly, but he didn’t intend to ask further, “Is Yun’er alright?”

“He eats and drinks well, and lives comfortably. What’s wrong with being bored?”

“…” Yin Yuhan. Why was he so short-fused?

Yin Jiujin glanced at them. “I’ll get going first.”

“Aren’t you going to stay for dinner before leaving?” Qin Jianjia asked.

“No.”

“Aren’t you going to see Grandfather when you’re back?” Yin Yuhan asked.

Yin Jiujin stopped in his tracks. “…Next time.”

“What do you mean next time? Do you have to be so calculative when you come home?” Yin Yuhan didn’t get angry easily but he was indeed a little angry this time.

Yin Jiujin looked up at him. “I’ll bring Little Yu over later.”

He forced Yin Yuhan’s anger back.

However, Yin Yuhan and Qin Jianjia were delighted to hear his words.

Qin Jianjia said, “Then it’s settled. Remember to bring Yu’er over. The new year will be in a month. Bring Yu’er home for the new year then.”

Yin Jiujin paused slightly. “Alright.”

“I’m going.”

“Alright, go ahead. No matter how busy you are with work, you have to rest. Your body is your capital. Don’t just focus on work and waste your body. That’s something that you can’t get back no matter how much money you earn.” Qin Jianjia nagged like an old mother. She was still shouting when he got into the car and the car drove away.

Yin Yuhan felt a little helpless. “They’re all gone.”

Qin Jianjia retracted her gaze. “It wasn’t easy for him to come back. Why didn’t he leave without eating a meal? It’s also you guys’ fault. If you all knew his personality, why did you guys ignore his wishes and go against him then? Even Hao’er with old-fashioned temper didn’t think of stopping him.”

“You’re already here. Aren’t you going to visit your cousin?” She was referring to Feng Yun.

Yin Yuhan looked up at the wooden door in front of them and paused before saying, “No.”

“Order the servants to take care of the Elegant Court. Send the food and drinks over on time. If Yun’er has any instructions, just do it. There’s no need to ask for permissions.”

Qin Jianjia nodded. “Yes, I will.”

“It’s just that your cousin can’t stay like this for long. Didn’t you think of persuading him not to stay cooped up in the courtyard?”

“I tried to persuade him a few years ago, but it was useless. He even got someone to send the mourning clothes to Elegant Court when we were mourning for Grandmother.”

Yin Yuhan said, “This is a psychological problem.”

Qin Jianjia fell silent. A psychological problem.

She didn’t ask further what kind of psychological problem it was.

“He doesn’t want to see anyone but he seems to be willing to see Jin’er?”

“Yun’er is only a few months older than Jin’er. When he was young and Aunt and Uncle were busy with work, he was always in the Yin Family and often played with Jin’er. They had the best relationship. Later on, Jin’er suddenly joined the army. Yun’er’s should be a part of the reason.”

“I don’t know about that. I thought Jin’er wanted to take that path himself.”

“He did want to take that path, but in the end…”

Then, both of them fell silent.

***

Another day passed.

At noon that day, in the South City Hospital.

Huo Sisi brought Cao Ming a stewed bone soup as usual.

This was already her fourth day delivering soup to Cao Ming. She was filled with impatience.

When they arrived at the VIP ward, there was no one else in the ward other than the nurse the Cao Family hired for Cao Ming. She was peeling fruits for Cao Ming who was lying on the bed.

Huo Sisi had already restrained the anger on her face when she pushed the door open and entered. “Where’s your family?”

An unknown gleam flashed in Cao Ming’s eyes when he saw her.

He waved the nurse out.

“My father has work to do and has gone to the company. My mother has been taking care of me for a few days and is a little tired. I told her to go back and rest first. As for the others, I told them to go back and rest too.”

“It’s been hard on you, Sisi. You send me soup every day.”

“We’re friends. You’re… you’re injured because of me. I’m just sending you soup. It’s only right.”

Huo Sisi walked to the bed and sat down, but she placed the soup aside.

“Sisi, there’s no one else here. Please pour the soup for me.”

An impatient look flashed past Huo Sisi’s eyes, but she quickly hid it. However, she was still noticed by Cao Ming, who was obsessed with her to the point of being crazy.

He smiled brightly.

It was eerie.

Seeing that Huo Sisi had finished pouring the soup and handed it to him directly, Cao Ming smiled, “Sisi, I’m a patient. Aren’t you going to feed me?”

“I was injured because of you. You know that I didn’t tell anyone else in order not to implicate you. If I tell the truth, be it my parents or your Huo Family, I’m afraid…”

“I’ll feed you!” Huo Sisi looked like she was gritting her teeth.

If she wasn’t worried that Cao Ming would spout nonsense these few days, why would she send bone soup to the hospital every day? Every time she came, she would be scolded by the Cao Family. She had never suffered so badly!

However, she endured it.

Not only was the Cao Family angry with her, but Xiang Jie had also gone crazy. She had stopped her on the street and scolded her twice. She had lost all her face.

Not only did she stop her and scold her on the streets, she even called her to scold her. Other than that, she also badmouthed her in their high school and university group chat.

She was thoroughly annoyed.

Indeed, one could not offend a villain!

It was already annoying enough to see Huo Siyu and Yan Jinyu at home every day, but her brother… actually came home every day too!

In the past, she would be happier than anyone else to see her brother every day. However, recently, no matter how silly she was, she could tell that her brother had only squeezed out time to go home because of Yan Jinyu.

The key was that she couldn’t scheme against them for the time being, because be it Huo Siyu or Yan Jinyu, they were obviously not simple.

The more she thought about it, the angrier Huo Sisi became. The soup spilled on Cao Ming’s hospital gown.

“Sisi, is there something on your mind?”

Huo Sisi came back to her senses and saw that his clothes were wet. “I’m sorry, I’ll get a tissue to help you wipe it.”

“There’s no need to wipe it. The soup is a little hot. I seem to be scalded. Help me take off my clothes.”

“…I’ll call the nurse over for you.”

“There’s no need for that. I’ve already told the nurse that she can go back if someone comes over.”

Cao Ming looked at her with a creepy smile that made Huo Sisi feel uneasy.

Hiding her uneasiness, Huo Sisi said, “I’ll go call the nurse.”

“Sisi, aren’t you willing to help me with such a small favor? It’s just taking off my clothes. It’s not a big deal. That day, I…”

“I’ll help you!”

Huo Sisi leaned over and helped him undo his buttons one by one. However, she did not see Cao Ming’s expression as he closed his eyes and sniffed her hair.

“You’re not scalded…” As soon as she finished speaking, her wrist was grabbed.

In the next second, she was pressed onto the bed by Cao Ming.

She didn’t know how Cao Ming got the strength when his legs were clearly broken and covered in plaster.

This was probably proof of Yan Jinyu’s words. There was nothing wrong with being a lunatic.

“What are you doing?!” Huo Sisi looked terrified. “Let go of me!”

“Sisi, don’t you know how much I like you. Didn’t you tell me that you have feelings for me at the ski resort that day?”

“In that case, we’re in love. A man and a woman who are in love are lying on the same bed. What do you think we should do?”

Huo Sisi was really frightened because she realized that Cao Ming’s grip on her hand was so strong that she could not break free at all.

“C-Cao Ming, I-I obviously have the same thoughts about you, b-but aren’t we being too anxious? You’re still injured and we’re in a ward. What if your wounds are torn open or someone suddenly pushes the door open?”

“Since you like me, can you recover first? I don’t feel good seeing you lying on the hospital bed all day.”

“Also, I’m the eldest daughter of the Huo Family. I-if someone suddenly bumps into you and me… the Huo Family won’t tolerate me. Can’t you think about me?”

If Cao Ming did not see through her, he might really be persuaded by her pitiful appearance and words which sounded very reasonable.

However, Cao Ming had seen through her.

“Sisi, don’t be afraid. The doctor said that my legs probably won’t recover, so it doesn’t matter if I take good care of them or not. As for whether someone will suddenly push open the door and come in, you don’t have to worry about that. So what if they bump into us? I’ll marry you. The Huo Family can’t tolerate you, so I will take care of you.”

He kissed her lips.

The more she struggled, the harder Cao Ming kissed her.

“How can you compare to the Huo Family! Ptui! You’re a cripple. You still want to take care of me? I’m afraid you can’t even take care of yourself! You’re out of your league! Cao Ming, I’m warning you. If you dare to touch me today, I’ll kill you!”

“‘If you die under a peony, you’ll still be a playboy’. Haven’t you heard of that?”

“Huo Sisi, you’re destined to be mine!”

Cao Ming was still injured. Huo Sisi managed to push him away with all her might.

She got out of bed and was about to run away. Cao Ming did not stop her. He just lay on the bed in a disheveled state and looked at her back, which was about to reach the door of the ward. He smiled and said, “Huo Sisi, if you dare to step out of this door, Young Master Huo will immediately hear about you making me deliberately hurt Huo Siyu in the ski resort. At that time, will the Huo Family still tolerate you?”

“If you don’t leave, make me comfortable for once. If you don’t say it and I don’t say it, who is going to know? After leaving this door, you’ll still be the high and mighty eldest daughter of the Huo Family.”

Huo Sisi stopped in her tracks.

She turned around and glared at him angrily.
