Chapter 134 - The Problem of Schooling
Chapter 134: The Problem of Schooling
North City, Mount Jing.
In the living room of the small villa.
Aunt Cheng brought a tray over and placed a cup of tea in front of Yin Shuguo and Yin Jiujin each. As for Yan Jinyu, she placed a bottle of yogurt in front of her.
After placing it down, she even smiled kindly at Yan Jinyu.
Last time, Yan Jinyu drank so much yogurt in one go. Aunt Cheng knew that she was the one who drank it, but Aunt Cheng didn’t know her exact situation. She only thought that she especially favored yogurt and drank too much in a moment of greed.
Therefore, even though Yin Jiujin had privately told Aunt Cheng that she couldn’t have more than five bottles of yogurt every day when she was preparing things for her in the fridge. Aunt Cheng didn’t think too much about it. She simply thought that Yin Jiujin was afraid that Yan Jinyu would drink too much because she liked it too much, so he specially gave her a limited amount when she prepared it for her.
Looking at the yogurt on the coffee table in front of her, Yan Jinyu smiled at Aunt Cheng. “Thank you, Aunt Cheng.”
Yan Jinyu smiled at Yin Jiujin when she saw him glance at her.
Yin Jiujin looked at her and then at the yogurt in her hand. He frowned slightly and wanted to say something, but he didn’t.
Did Yan Jinyu really want to drink it?
Actually, no.
She opened the bottle of yogurt so quickly because Aunt Cheng cared for her.
Yes, it was pure care and love that simply came from an elder to a junior.
She couldn’t bear to reject her.
Aunt Cheng was especially happy when she saw that Yan Jinyu opened the yogurt happily.
Yin Shuguo saw their interaction. When Aunt Cheng turned to the kitchen to wash the fruits, Yin Shuguo couldn’t help but ask, “Little Yu likes to drink milk…” Fortunately, although he was old, his vision was good, so when he saw that it wasn’t milk.” Do you like to drink yogurt? ”
Yan Jinyu nodded. “Yes, I like it.” After saying that, she even took a sip sweetly.
Even Yin Jiujin felt that she really liked the yoghurt with her behavior.
“Since you like it, let Aunt Cheng prepare more at home. You can drink it anytime.”
Hearing Yin Shuguo’s words, Yan Jinyu looked at Yin Jiujin with a faint smile. She knew that he had limited the amount for her. She had a habit of drinking it every day. The first time, she even felt that Aunt Cheng didn’t have the time to prepare them. However, no matter when she opened the fridge, she would only see five bottles of yogurt inside. She realized it after a few consecutive tries.
It was just that she did not expose him.
Anyway, she stayed with Yin Jiujin every day. She wouldn’t be as irritable as she was in the Yan Family. Whether she drank yogurt or not, it actually didn’t affect her much.
“Alright,” Yan Jinyu said.
Yin Jiujin remained silent until Yin Shuguo said to Yan Jinyu, “Since you’ve already moved to Mount Jing, don’t think about the past anymore. Be it your experiences during your disappearance or the attitude of the Yan Family towards you…”
“I know. Thank you, Grandpa Yin.” Yan Jinyu smiled brightly as if she wasn’t affected at all. Even if someone mentioned it to her face, she still looked like she didn’t care.
This made Yin Shuguo sigh inwardly.
It was very comforting that this girl was so open-minded at such a young age.
After hesitating for a moment, Yin Shuguo looked at Yan Jinyu and said, “It’s your birthday a few days ago?”
Yan Jinyu smiled and nodded, even though she didn’t know why Yin Shuguo suddenly asked this.
“You’re only 18 years old?” He sounded a little emotional.
“Yes.”
“18 years old. It’s the age of youth. I heard that you’ve always been by Jin’er’s side as his… bodyguard?” The old man’s eyes twitched when he asked this.
Yin Shuguo had naturally investigated carefully before coming to North City, so he was basically clear about Yan Jinyu and Yin Jiujin’s current situation.
When he heard from his subordinates that Yan Jinyu was now by Yin Jiujin’s side and that she was Yin Jiujin’s bodyguard who accompanied Yin Jiujin to work every day, Yin Shuguo’s expression was indescribable.
Yin Shuguo didn’t believe that a little girl like Yan Jinyu was really capable of being a bodyguard.
Since she was not a bodyguard, a young girl followed the CEO of a multinational corporation to his headquarters and stayed in his office for the entire day.
Most importantly, this did not happen in a day or two. It lasted for two weeks.
What would happen if word got out?
In order to avoid being seen as a joke, coupled with the fact that the girl was at an age where she should be learning, how could she waste her time like this?
Hence, Yin Shuguo came to North City to meet them in advance.
Upon hearing Yin Shuguo’s words, Yin Jiujin couldn’t help but glance at him.
Obviously, he had guessed his intentions. He hesitated for a moment and did not interrupt.
“Yes,” Yan Jinyu replied calmly.
She didn’t find it strange that Yin Shuguo knew about this. After all, Old Master Yin was an influential figure when he was young. It was normal for him to be able to find out about these things that weren’t considered secrets.
She deserved it so calmly, so Yin Shuguo couldn’t continue on this topic. He was afraid that it would dampen the girl’s enthusiasm.
Look at that bright smile.
“…Little Yu, you’re quite skilled?” After pondering for a long time, Yin Shuguo spoke again.
Yan Jinyu grinned, looking a little silly. “I’m average.”
Yin Jiujin, who had remained silent at the side, was speechless.
Even if he didn’t want to admit it, he had to admit that the girl was indeed very good at fighting. Not everyone had the ability to shatter a bullet that came flying at them in an instant, even if they had a powerful weapon.
Others might not be able to, but the young lady could. If she wasn’t very skilled, what was she?
To describe it as “alright” was a little humble.
She was clearly such a child who was eager to showcase herself and get recognition. He thought that she would also use words like “formidable” to describe herself when facing others. He did not expect that her lack of modesty would only be shown in front of him.
In other words, she was actually only anxious to show off in front of him and only wanted his approval.
This was good.
Only he needed to know if she was silly or smart, ordinary or outstanding.
However, when Yin Shuguo heard Yan Jinyu’s reply, the corners of his lips twitched imperceptibly. The little girl was really not humble. With her small arms and legs, she could still dance, but if she had skills, could she fight?
He did not believe it anyway.
“You’ve practiced before?”
Yan Jinyu smiled and nodded.
“How many years have you been training for?”
“About six or seven years.” Although she had a lot of training after that, in fact, she had basically learned all the skills she needed to learn before she was nine years old. Otherwise, she would not have become famous at the age of 10.
Hence, in all seriousness, she had only trained her skills for six to seven years.
Yin Shuguo fell silent.
She spoke so seriously that he would have believed her if he hadn’t specially investigated her past when he found out that Jin’er had brought her back to North City.
“…Did you train with somebody?”
“No, I trained myself.” There were people who guided knowledge and skills, but it was only guidance. Be it knowledge or other skills, including skills, they were all learned by herself.
If she didn’t want to learn it herself?
The survival of the fittest was in the survival of the fittest. If one was not careful, they would lose their life. If they did not learn and train, they would only die.
Yan Jinyu smiled. “However, there are many sparring partners.”
Every batch that entered Ghost Slaughter Island had a few hundred people, but only 10 people were left in the end. The others were naturally eliminated in the process of fighting.
Wasn’t the one who was eliminated just a sparring partner?
However, the rule on Ghost Slaughter Island was that they were not eliminated until they were dead.
In other words, those so-called eliminated people were actually already dead.
Although Yan Jinyu was still smiling, her smile obviously didn’t reach her eyes when she said that.
Yin Jiujin frowned slightly.
Sparring partners?
His grandfather might not understand, but he did.
“Why are you asking her this? If she’s willing to follow me around, just let her. What’s the matter with her identity? Who dares to say anything?” However, he had forgotten that he did not intend to interrupt Yin Shuguo at the beginning.
Yin Jiujin’s obvious displeasure made Yin Shuguo raise his eyebrows.
He had only asked a few questions as a casual chat. Was he that protective of her? Also, why was he angry for no reason? He did not ask anything that could not be asked.
His second grandson’s temper was getting worse.
He seemed to be getting more and more arrogant.
Who dared to say anything?
Uh, it seemed like no one indeed dared to say it, including his family.
“I’m just asking casually. Let’s chat for a while. If you don’t want to hear it, go to the study to do your work. I’ll talk to Little Yu alone. I’ll call you when Little You is done preparing dinner.” Aunt Cheng’s surname was You.
Yin Shuguo didn’t dodge when he met Yin Jiujin’s faint gaze. “Don’t say that this is your territory. You have the final say wherever you are. Mount Jing was given to you by your grandmother. Your grandmother and I have been husband and wife for our entire lives. I can be considered as half the former owner of Mount Jing.”
“So, either you go upstairs and don’t disturb us now, or you sit here quietly.”
Yin Jiujin glanced at him expressionlessly and then leaned lazily on the sofa.
There was silence.
She couldn’t be bothered.
When Yin Shuguo and Yin Jiujin didn’t talk about that matter back then, they usually interacted like this.
Seeing that he stopped talking, Yin Shuguo looked at Yan Jinyu in satisfaction. His expression was completely different from when he was facing Yin Jiujin. It was kind and amiable.
“Girls should have some skills. That way, they won’t be easily bullied outside.”
“However, Little Yu, Jin’er isn’t short of skilled people around him. He has trained for a few years himself. He usually isn’t in any danger. You’re a girl. It’s… not appropriate for you to follow Jin’er as his bodyguard.”
“You’re only 18 now. I heard that your twin sister is still in her third year of high school. Do you… want to go to school again?”
When Yan Jinyu heard that, she said with a smile, “No.”
“…” Yin Shuguo.
“…” Yin Jiujin. He knew it.
“Besides, I think it’s good to be Brother Nine’s bodyguard. There’s nothing wrong with that.”
“Of course, if Grandpa Yin feels that I’m really not suitable to be Brother Nine’s bodyguard, I can stay in Mount Jing to help Brother Nine look after the house or go to Brother Nine’s company to help him. Anyway, I can do anything except go to school.”
“Oh, I don’t think I have enough education to go to Brother Nine’s company to help him.”
“…” The both of them again.
You also know that you don’t have enough education!
“In that case, it seems like I can only stay in Mount Jing to help Brother Nine look after the house. Grandpa Yin, don’t worry. I’m very good at looking after the house. With me around, I guarantee that not even a fly can fly into Mount Jing.”
This was not a matter of whether she wanted to watch the house or was she able to watch over it.
Besides, even without her, Mount Jing would be impenetrable.
After a long while, Yin Shuguo sighed softly. “Little Yu, Grandpa Yin will tell you the truth. If you want to be with Jin’er forever, with your education, even if you get married successfully, many people will gossip about you.”
“Although Jin’er didn’t officially go to school, he had obtained a double doctorate from the Imperial Capital University. You don’t want anyone to say that you’re not worthy of Jin’er, right?”
The old man’s tone was not harsh. It even had a meaningful and sincere meaning.
Yan Jinyu’s smile faded slightly.
What she hated the most now was others saying that she wasn’t compatible with Yin Jiujin.
However, before she could say anything, Yin Jiujin spoke first, “Who dares to interfere in my matters? So what if she’s worthy of me? So what if she’s not? Could it be that anyone has the ability to influence my marriage?”
Hearing his words, Yin Shuguo glared at him.
This brat. He was finally about to convince the girl. What was wrong with him?! Was this the main point he wanted to express? Was it?
He wanted Little Yu to continue to study. Even if she couldn’t learn much, she had to at least get her graduation certificate so that no one would use her education to criticize her in the future!
Although few families could compare to the status of the Yin Family, there were so many people in the world, and it wasn’t like the Yin Family could control all of them. If someone belittled Little Yu with their education background, then this brat would definitely cry then!
With her junior high education level, not to mention outsiders, even the Yin Family people would probably not be able to accept her.
If it wasn’t for the fact that she was the granddaughter-in-law that his wife selected, he wouldn’t have agreed for the Yin Family to marry such a pure and innocent girl who didn’t even have a basic university… a high school education as their granddaughter-in-law.
Although Yin Jiujin didn’t like what Yin Shuguo said, he understood what he meant.
He had already planned to send the girl to school, but it was only a matter of time.
He looked at Yan Jinyu, “Although others don’t dare to nip at me, it’s only right for you to go to school at your age.”
As soon as he finished speaking, Yan Jinyu suddenly stood up from the sofa and said with a look of realization, “Oh my, I forgot that Little Rain asked me to call her at this time. Grandpa Yin and Brother Nine can chat first. I’ll go upstairs to give Little Rain a call. I may take too long to talk on the phone. Aunt Cheng will prepare dinner first. You don’t have to call me. Just get Aunt Cheng to send one to my room.”
Without waiting for their reaction, she turned and ran upstairs.
The door closed with a bang.
The grandfather and grandson duo, who had always been cold and emotionless, had complicated expressions.
