Chapter 8: Doesn’t He Care?
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Yu Yao only looked at the name card after getting into the taxi.
It was just a simple name and a phone number, but it looked quite cool.
In her previous life, Yu Yao had naturally been sensitive to numbers. After being reborn into the book, she seemed to have brought this trait along. With only a glance, she memorized the string of numbers.
She put the name card away carefully. After all, it was a gift from a friendly human to a stray cat.
Qiao Lian? Was there such a person in the novel?
Yu Yao closed her eyes and recalled the book she had read in her previous life. She was quite confident in her memory and was sure that such a character had never appeared in the novel.
However, as the story progressed, it mentioned the Qiao family.
The Qiaos were a rather mysterious family. Their businesses were all overseas. Not only did they invest in various industries, but they also had their own military forces overseas. They were involved in many shady things.
Yu Yao muttered to herself, “Doesn’t seem like we’ll be able to mutually benefit here. There are too many villains in this setting. No wonder he didn’t get any scenes.”
At this moment, she was glad that she had made the choice to leave. It was not that she did not understand Qiao Lian’s intentions. His looks and demeanor were very eye-catching to her. However, it didn’t change the fact that no matter how comfortable a human’s pet could be, stray cats still loved freedom and the feeling of being unrestrained.
The Yu family’s villa was a little deserted.
Yu Hong, the head of the Yu family, had already passed on his authority to his eldest son. Recently, he had been on vacation overseas with his wife, Chen Lin.
Eldest Young Master Yu Lang was a standard workaholic. He would never retire early or avoid overtime.
Second Young Master Yu Heng was a researcher at a secret agency in the country. He was even more of a workaholic than his elder brother and didn’t go home all year round.
The third young master, Yu Jue, was a popular idol. He was so busy that he just slept on planes every day.
In the novel, Yu Yao had only met all her relatives upon her first return to the Yu family. After a short period of introductions, her parents and brothers had gone to work on their respective careers.
Yu Yao had thought that they were using a cold attitude to express their dissatisfaction with her and so she had tried to please them in even more clumsy ways, but she did not know that the more she did so, the more mistakes she made.
The Yu family had thought that she was showing off her status in the company by sending a love-filled lunchbox to her eldest brother. When she called her second brother to tell him about her troubles with her studies, she had received an answer that said, “Don’t waste my time with stupid questions”. When she had sent support to her third brother, her fans had suspected her of being an anti-fan because she wasn’t familiar with the process. After her explanation, she was attacked online by countless people…
Yu Yao had lamented the misfortune of this heroine who shared the same name as her when she was reading the book. Now that she had become this very Yu Yao, she vaguely understood the longing for her family to acknowledge her. Her heart ached for this pitiful girl.
There’s no need to pursue things that don’t belong to you anymore. Yu Yao, I’ll live well on your behalf. I’ll love you unconditionally too. After all, we’re the same person now, right?
Yu Yao touched her chest, her heart beating strongly; she seemed to hear the other Yu Yao’s answer.
Yu Yao did not have the key to the villa, nor did she have her facial recognition data in the system. She pressed the doorbell and waited for nearly twenty minutes before the maid came to open the door.
The slightly plump middle-aged maid’s surname was Zhang. When she faced Yu Yao, she didn’t show her any respect at all. She rolled her eyes and complained, “You really know how to cause trouble.”
If it had been the old Yu Yao, she probably wouldn’t have been able to tolerate this kind of sarcasm. She would have used the shrewishness she had learned in the countryside to quarrel with the maid. Even if she won the argument, she wouldn’t be respected by others—she would only be criticized by them.
However, the Yu Yao of the past was long gone, so she glanced at Auntie Zhang, not caring about this underling who bullied others thanks to her master’s power.
Auntie Zhang, who was prepared to scold her, stood rooted to the ground. She was like a bloated toad that was about to attack a passing human but was being ignored. It was ridiculous.
Yu Yao had thought that there were only servants in the villa, but when she walked into the living room, she realized that there was a rather irksome person there too—Yu Wan.
Even at home, Yu Wan was dressed in an exquisite and expensive outfit.
She was walking down the stairs slowly. When she saw Yu Yao, she smiled.
“Elder Sister Yaoyao, you’re finally back. My brothers and I have been very worried about you.”
Yu Yao was too lazy to waste her time on her, and she planned to just stonewall her again.
Yu Wan’s rank was much higher than that of the maids at home. She did not care if she received any response.
“But you also know that my brothers are all very busy. It’s already rare for them to have time to ask about your condition. They can’t wait around for you to come home, much less go to you personally.”
However, when it was just the two of them, Yu Wan was never stingy with showing her evil side.
“Of course, it could also be because they can’t develop such deep feelings for you in such a short period of time, so they don’t really care about your safety.”
