Chapter Ninety-Seven: Yu Wan's Jealousy

The next morning, sunlight streamed through the windows, making the room exceptionally bright. Everyone else in the family was busy with their own things, except for Lin Jin, Yu Wan, and Grandpa Yu, who remained at home.

Lin Jin and Grandpa Yu were leisurely playing chess at the coffee table in the living room. Just as the game was in full swing, the doorbell rang. Lin Jin quickly got up to open the door, only to find Grandpa Gong and Grandma Gong standing there carrying large and small bags.

"Grandma, why didn't you tell me you were coming?" Lin Jin said with a delighted smile, quickly walking to the door to help the old lady Gong.

When Grandma Gong saw Lin Jin, she beamed with joy. She held Lin Jin's hand tightly, her eyes narrowing into slits with laughter. "We missed you, so your grandfather and I came to see you."

Grandpa Gong chimed in, "Yes, we also brought you quite a few good things."

Hearing the noise, Grandpa Yu came out of the living room. He saw Grandpa Gong and Grandma Gong and greeted them with a smile, "Oh, old friends, you've come all this way, why did you bring anything?"

Seeing this scene, Yu Wan felt a little uncomfortable, but she still forced a smile and went forward to greet Grandpa Gong and Grandma Gong.

After exchanging a few pleasantries, everyone went into the living room and sat down. Grandma Gong held Lin Jin's hand tightly, as if she had endless things to say, and didn't let go.

As soon as Grandpa Gong entered the room, his gaze was drawn to the chessboard on the table. He strode over to the board and carefully examined the pieces, as if they were telling him something. Grandpa Gong's hand unconsciously touched the chessboard, his fingers gently brushing over the pieces, feeling their smoothness and texture.

"This chessboard is quite nice," Grandpa Gong exclaimed. "Old Yu, come on, let's play a few games!" His voice was filled with excitement and anticipation.

At the same time, Old Madam Gong grabbed Lin Jin's hand and asked with concern, "Jin'er, are you getting used to it here? Has anyone from the Yu family caused you any trouble? If anyone bullies you, be sure to tell Grandma, and Grandma will definitely stand up for you!"

Lin Jin felt Grandma Gong's concern and replied with a smile, "Grandma, don't worry, I'm doing fine here. The Yu family is very kind to me, and no one is making things difficult for me."

Hearing Lin Jin's words, Grandma Gong felt somewhat relieved, but she still couldn't help but sigh, "Grandma knows you're a sensible and good child. That Xiao Hong is too cruel. Sentencing her to only 10 years is too lenient on her!"

Lin Jin quickly comforted her, "Grandma, don't be angry. Good and evil will be rewarded in the end, and she will receive the punishment she deserves."

Grandma Gong nodded, then changed the subject, saying, "However, Jin'er, you are a capable girl, and your future will definitely get better and better!"

Just then, Yu Wan came over with a cup of tea. She had a polite smile on her face and said softly, "Grandpa Gong, Grandma Gong, please have some tea."

Grandma Gong glanced at Yu Wan, nodded slightly, and then accepted the tea.

Grandpa Gong and Grandpa Yu were locked in a fierce battle on the chessboard, their laughter and chatter occasionally drifting through the living room. Grandma Gong pulled Lin Jin aside and whispered, "Girl, Grandma brought you some snacks that girls like. Keep them and eat them slowly. Grandma will buy you more when you're done." Lin Jin gratefully replied, "Thank you, Grandma. You and Grandpa are so kind to me."

Watching their intimate display, Yu Wan felt a surge of jealousy growing wildly within her, threatening to consume her. She bit her lip tightly, as if that would suppress the turbulent emotions. Suddenly, an idea flashed through her mind, and as if grasping at a straw, she quickly walked to Old Master Gong's side.

"Grandpa Gong, I've heard that you are a master of chess. I'm also somewhat acquainted with chess. Would I have the honor of playing a few games with you?" Yu Wan said softly with a sweet smile on her face.

Upon hearing this, Old Master Gong's gaze fell upon her, and a kind smile appeared on his lips: "Oh? That's fine then. Let me see just how good your chess skills are."

Yu Wan quickly sat down opposite Grandpa Gong, set up the chessboard, and the two began to play. However, after only a few moves, Yu Wan's weaknesses were exposed one by one, and her game gradually became passive.

Seeing this, Grandpa Gong smiled and shook his head, saying, "Wan'er, your chess skills still need some practice. In comparison, Jin'er's chess skills are much better!"

Hearing this, Yu Wan felt indignant, but her expression remained unchanged. She maintained a humble smile and said, "Grandpa Gong is absolutely right. Sister Jin is indeed clever and quick-witted. She learns everything very fast. I must learn more from her in the future."

Grandpa Gong was quite satisfied with Yu Wan's attitude. He smiled and nodded, then said, "Young people these days don't like to learn these traditional cultural things anymore. It's already quite good that you can play a little chess."

Yu Wan verbally agreed, but her heart felt like it was being roasted on fire, extremely uncomfortable. She suppressed her dissatisfaction and continued talking with Old Master Gong, but the fire of anger in her heart burned brighter and brighter.

Grandpa Yu suddenly said, "Wan'er, if you're bored, go watch TV! Your Grandpa Gong and I will play a couple more games!"

Grandpa Yu saw all of Yu Wan's expressions, but since there were outsiders present, he couldn't lash out. He could only send her away; otherwise, who knew what she might do later! Yu Wan bit her lip, forcing a smile. "Grandpa, Grandpa Gong, you two continue your chess game. I'm going to watch TV." With that, she got up and walked to the sofa on the other side of the living room. Sitting on the sofa, Yu Wan's eyes were fixed on the television, but her mind was completely elsewhere. Her jealousy was almost driving her mad. Suddenly, she saw a scene on TV depicting the use of poison to harm someone, and an evil thought began to sprout in her mind.
