The Atypical Young Lady Has Returned

Chapter 295: A Warm New Year’s Eve

As soon as he finished speaking, the person in his arms froze.

“No thanks,” she said.

Yin Jiujin looked at the top of her head. “I think you treat your sister quite well. As an elder sister, shouldn’t you give your sister New Year’s red-envelope money?”

Yan Jinyu fell silent and buried her face in his chest. “You have a point. Then… let’s go back on the first day of the new year.”

She said gloomily, “Brother Nine, go with me.”

“Yes, going with you.”

***

In the blink of an eye, the Lunar New Year’s Eve arrived.

This was the Yin Family’s happiest lunar new year’s eve in the past 10 years.

Early in the morning, the servants put on lanterns, decorations, and couplets under Butler Wu’s lead.

Yan Jinyu and Yin Jiujin didn’t join in the fun. The two of them stayed in the Azure Garden. Yin Jiujin wanted to personally write the couplet and he stuck them in the Azure Garden.

The two of them specially moved the table to the courtyard. At that moment, it was still snowing outside. The two of them were wearing red coats and red scarves, looking especially festive.

This was the first time Yan Jinyu had seen Yin Jiujin write with a brush.

Yan Jinyu propped her chin up and watched as she helped Yin Jiujin spread the red paper.

One moment, she was staring at Yin Jiujin’s face, and the next, she was staring at his brush.

Yin Jiujin picked up the brush and penned it in one go. Other than looking good, the words he wrote were also majestic.

“Brother Nine, your handwriting is so good. What else do you not know?”

She looked infatuated.

Seeing her like this, Yin Jiujin smiled faintly.

His heart softened just by looking at this girl.

For the first time, he felt that the new year was interesting.

Yes, for the first time.

Even when he was young, he did not think that the new year was interesting.

After writing a couplet, Yin Jiujin looked at Yan Jinyu. “Do you want to write one too?”

“Me?” Yan Jinyu pointed at herself. She looked a little stunned.

Yin Jiujin nodded.

“But Brother Nine, I can’t write with a brush.”

“It’s fine. Come here. I’ll write with you.” He reached out his hand to her.

“It’s better not to. Brother Nine, you write it. I’ll just watch.” Her calligraphy wasn’t actually bad, but compared to Yin Jiujin’s, it was really lacking.

After all, calligraphy required more practice. She didn’t have that much time to practice in her early years. Although Yin Jiujin was also busy, he was the Second Young Master of the Yin Family before he joined the army at eight years old. He was also talented and smart since he was young. The Yin Family had arranged many classes for him, and he had learned them well.

Calligraphy was one of them.

Yin Jiujin didn’t retract his hand.

He seemed to insist that she go over and write.

Yan Jinyu had no choice. In the end, she placed her hand in his palm and let him lead her to his side. Then, he pulled her into his arms and placed the brush in her palm. “Hold the brush.”

Yan Jinyu did as she was told. Yin Jiujin held her hand that was holding the brush with one hand and held her waist with the other. He leaned over and led her to write.

The warm breath landed on her ear, making Yan Jinyu flinch.

“Brother Nine, you don’t have to be so close.” The two of them had been intimate before. It wasn’t that Yan Jinyu didn’t like Yin Jiujin’s proximity, but it affected her performance.

“Focus on writing.”

In the beginning, Yin Jiujin really planned to bring her to write couplets. After hugging her in his arms, he lowered his eyes to look at her petite ears. His eyes couldn’t help but darken.

He seemed to be writing with her, but his eyes were actually staring at her earlobe.

Yin Jiujin’s gaze landed on the red paper and he said, “You have to be focused on writing.”

However, he had no intention of retreating as he spoke.

It made Yan Jinyu even more uncomfortable.

After writing the couplets, Yin Jiujin took the brush from her and put it down. However, the hand around her waist had no intention of letting go.

Just as Yan Jinyu was about to ask him to let go of her and continue to write couplets on a new piece of paper, her ear felt warm.

Yan Jinyu almost lost her balance.

“B-Brother Nine, we’re writing couplets.”

“Write it later.” He hugged her tighter.

At that moment, outside the Azure Garden, Feng Yun was about to come over for a visit. Before he entered the courtyard, he saw the two of them cuddling in the courtyard.

Especially since Yin Jiujin refused to let go of the girl and looked like a hungry wolf.

He raised his eyebrows and turned to leave.

He had not celebrated the new year properly for so many years, yet he was still treated to such a lovey-dovey show when he came to visit.

After a while, Yin Jiujin turned her around and kissed her chin.

Tthe two of them were always together recently and were clingy. However, Yin Jiujin felt that it wasn’t enough no matter how he kissed his girl. It was as if she had magic power on her and was fatally attractive to him.

After a long while, the kiss ended.

Yan Jinyu leaned in Yin Jiujin’s arms and glared at him. “Brother Nine, why are you like this? We clearly agreed to seriously write couplets.”

Yin Jiujin hugged her and caressed her long hair. His eyes were filled with gentleness and indulgence. “Yes, I’ll write seriously now.”

After that, Yin Jiujin wrote the couplets. However, when he wrote the couplets, he held Yan Jinyu in his arms with one hand.

Other than feeling helpless, Yan Jinyu also had other emotions.

Her heart warmed. She wished that time would stop at this moment forever.

This was the first time she had experienced the New Year since she was two years old. In the past…

Oh, she had never celebrated the Lunar New Year in the past.

Occasionally, there would be a year or two when Feng and the rest were around for the Lunar New Year’s Eve. Meimei and Little Rain would cook and the four of them would eat together.

However, at that time, she could lose her life at any time. There was naturally no atmosphere during the new year.

Later on, Ghost Slaughter Island was destroyed, and she separated from the three of them. She didn’t even celebrate the new year.

“Brother Nine.”

Yin Jiujin wrote, “Yes?”

“Every year during the new year, let’s write our own couplets and put them up together.”

His hand that was hugging her paused. Yin Jiujin lowered his eyes to look at the top of her head and answered as if he was giving her a promise, “Alright.”

After writing the couplets, the two of them really posted them up personally.

They didn’t stick them anywhere else but only in Yin Jiujin’s Azure Garden.

The two of them busied themselves and looked like a young newly-wed couple. It was very warm.

Because it was New Year’s Eve and they had to eat New Year’s Eve’s dinner, the two of them did not go to the main building for dinner on the dot as usual. Instead, they went over two hours earlier.

They didn’t let the two of them go to the kitchen to help. Qin Jianjia and Min Qinglan instructed the servants in the preparation.

As for Yan Jinyu, Qin Jianjia very thoughtfully instructed the servants to warm a bottle of yogurt for her. She held the yogurt and sat beside Yin Jiujin to watch television.

They were watching the news channel.

Other than them, Yin Wuzhan, Yin Yuhan, and Feng Yun were also sitting on the sofa. Yin Shuguo was sitting on his big chair.

After sitting for a while, Yan Jinyu got bored. She handed the yogurt to Yin Jiujin and started playing games on her phone.

She didn’t let Yin Jiujin put down the yogurt. After playing with it for a while, she leaned over and bit on the straw to take a sip.

Yin Jiujin wasn’t impatient at all. He helped her hold the yogurt with one hand and held her waist with the other as he watched her play games.

He began to guide her again.

Yan Jinyu couldn’t stand it anymore, so she glared at him. “Brother Nine, I’ve said it before. Don’t always give me tips when I’m playing games. You’re affecting my performance.”

“Alright, alright. You play. I won’t say anything.”

After a while, he couldn’t help but say again.

“…” The few people at the side. If it wasn’t for the fact that that face couldn’t be faked, they would have thought that this wasn’t the Jin’er they knew.

With his personality and style, who would believe that he was Master Nine, whom people feared whenever his name was mentioned?

So this was how the two of them interacted privately.

Everyone had different thoughts, but no one said anything to disturb them.

It had probably been many years since they had seen Yin Jiujin like this.

They did not think that they were rude to play games in front of their elders. They were family and they were the youngest in the family. They should be happy during the new year.

Most importantly, Yin Jiujin looked too different from what they usually saw.

All these years, he had been so indifferent to them because of the conflict back then.

Anyway, Old Master Yin was smiling when he saw Yin Jiujin like this.

Although Yin Wuzhan was drinking tea quietly and his expression didn’t seem to change, Yin Yuhan, who was closest to him, still saw the faint smile on his lips.

After playing one round, Feng Yun spoke when Yan Jinyu emphasized to Yin Jiujin again not to disturb her.

“Jin’er, if you want to play games, just download one onto your phone. You and Yu’er can still form a team.”

Yin Jiujin looked up at him and gave him the fastest change of facial expression in history.

The moment he looked up, he was the calm and cold Master Nine again.

“Brother Nine, Cousin is right. Why don’t you form a team with me? Take out your phone and download the game.”

Yin Jiujin rejected her outright. “No.”

Playing games? He wasn’t interested.

He didn’t enjoy playing games, but being with his girl.

He liked to watch her play.

Looking at his slightly shameless and coquettish look, Yan Jinyu sighed helplessly, “Alright, then don’t disturb me anymore.”

“Mm-hm.”

He agreed, but he continued to guide Yan Jinyu when she was playing games.

He enjoyed it immensely.

Qin Jianjia and Min Qinglan, who came out of the kitchen, were shocked to see that.

Min Qinglan stared at them for a while before turning to enter the kitchen.

Her emotions were complicated.

She was feeling complicated, but so was everyone else.

Especially Feng Yun.

Not only did he understand Yin Jiujin, but he also understood Yan Jinyu.

Not only was Yin Jiujin abnormal, but Yan Jinyu was also very abnormal when the two of them were together.

In Feng Yun’s impression, Yan Jinyu was cold and quiet, even though she usually had a smile on her face and looked soft and innocent.

It was really lamentable to see her like this.

Everyone didn’t say much during the Yin Family’s New Year’s Eve meal, but they had an exceptionally warm and satisfied meal.

Grandma Wu, the elder of the Yin Family, silently hid and wiped her tears when she saw this scene.

This was the first time the Yin Family had eaten such a festive dinner in all these years.

After the reunion dinner, Yan Jinyu received a lot of red packets. Even Min Qinglan handed one to her.

She looked up at Min Qinglan, only to see that Min Qinglan was so frightened that she stuffed the red packet into her hand and turned to leave.

It wasn’t an act. Min Qinglan was really frightened.

Was she that scary?

“Brother Nine.”

Seeing Min Qinglan’s actions, Yin Jiujin felt a little complicated. He rubbed the top of her head. “Don’t worry about it. Just accept it.”

“No, I wanted to ask Brother Nine. Where’s your red packet? Don’t tell me you didn’t prepare it for me?” Yan Jinyu blinked.

She looked very rich like this.

Yin Jiujin found it funny. He lowered his head and kissed her annoyedly, ignoring the fact that there were others present.

He took out a red packet from his pocket and flicked her forehead. “I’ve already prepared it for you, little money-grubber.”

Yan Jinyu didn’t mind that he had flicked her forehead. She took it happily and opened it to see a black card.

“Tsk tsk.” “Brother Nine, an evil capitalist.”

Yin Jiujin kissed her annoyedly again and pulled her out of the main building towards the Azure Garden.

***

It was warm and beautiful here, but miserable on the other side.

The Yu Family in the capital.

In the basement.

The person in the wheelchair was pushed out of the basement by a person. There were a few people behind them. One of them was even supported by someone else. It seemed like his leg was injured.

It was Liu Guang and the others.

The person who led them was the Old Master of the Yu Family, Yu Quan.

“Sir, it’s New Year’s Eve today. Their defense won’t be so strict. I’ve already arranged it. The car is waiting outside. You can leave tonight.”

“It will take five to six hours to get to Cloud City from the capital. I wanted to prepare a helicopter for you, but I was afraid that we would be discovered if we caused too much of a commotion. Can I arrange for someone to drive for you?”

“There’s no need to.” Although he was in a sorry state, Yu Quan was still frightened by Liu Guang’s aura.

“Sir, Miss has been trying to contact you recently. Don’t you intend to tell her your whereabouts? Or meet her?”

Liu Guang glanced at him ruthlessly and Yu Quan quickly shut up.

“I was being nosy.”

“Look after her in the capital. Don’t let her ruin things. Our years of planning have been ruined. She’s also an idiot.”

Yu Quan trembled in fear. “Alright, Sir.”

“Sir, if there’s anything in the future, should I go to the Feng Family to look for you directly?”

The Feng Family in Cloud City was a low-key family with a hundred years of history.

“Call me if you need anything!” Liu Guang looked at him like he was looking at a fool.

“Yes, yes, yes, Sir. I was confused.”

“Be more obedient for the time being. There’s no need to do anything for the time being. I have my own plans.”

“Yes, Sir.”

***

In the Yin Family’s Azure Garden.

Yan Jinyu was lying in Yin Jiujin’s arms when her phone rang.

It was Yan Jinyun.

Looking at the time, it was almost 10 pm.

Yan Jinyu and Yin Jiujin returned to the Azure Garden after dinner at six.

She was about to get up and answer the call when Yin Jiujin held onto her tightly. Yan Jinyu could only give up and answer the call in his arms.

“Yun’er.”

Yan Jinyu had called Yan Jinyun before the Yin Family’s reunion dinner.

It was just an ordinary chat to ask Yan Jinyun to remember to eat the New Year’s Eve meal.

At that time, Yan Jinyun was very normal. However, now that Yan Jinyu picked up the call, there was no sounds on the other end.

Yin Jiujin patted Yin Jiujin’s hand before he let go of her.

Yan Jinyu sat up. Yin Jiujin picked up the sleeping robe and put it on her. Then, he lay down and lie on her lap.

“Yun’er?”

“Sister.” Yan Jinyun’s tone sounded a little strange.

“Yes, what’s wrong?”
