After the man entered the room, he coughed softly again.
This made Cen Yu look at the other person again, and then she took out a bottle of water from the minibar and handed it to the other person.
After the other person reached out and took the medicine, they took out a medicine bottle from their pocket, poured out two pills, put them in their mouth, opened the mineral water that Cen Yu handed them, and swallowed the pills.
Seeing that the other person had finished taking the medicine, Cen Yu remembered the question the other person had just asked—
"What kind of photos are you talking about buying?"
It's no wonder he overthinks things; the keywords "photos" and "model" easily remind him of the set of photos that were sold.
He carefully examined the other person, somewhat unable to believe that the person whose photos were released later was actually this person—could he be some kind of hidden fan of Yu Xinyu?
Upon hearing this, the man immediately offered an explanation, saying that he had just seen a set of photos, liked them very much, and couldn't resist buying them. He smiled apologetically at Cen Yu, "Because I'm not in good health, and I'm usually very law-abiding..."
He paused for a moment and then continued, "So when I saw those photos, I was a little envious of that state of mind."
He smiled sheepishly, "and then I bought it."
He looked at Cen Yu and said, "I'm a little sorry, but I just happened to see your tattoo... and it looks a bit like the model in the photo I bought."
That's why I asked if you had ever been a model before.
Cen Yu looked at the enlarged photo on the man's phone screen—the photo had been developed and enlarged and placed in a room with nothing around it, as if it were simply a place to display photos.
Even from just a glimpse, Cen Yu could sense that the room where the man hung the photos was spacious and empty; no wonder he had spare money to buy those photos.
He shrugged inwardly and then carefully observed the man's face.
Unfortunately, there wasn't a single character in the original story who matched this person's appearance... He was probably some kind of hidden fan. Thinking of this, he tentatively asked, "Do you know Yu Xinyu?"
"Yu Xinyu?" The man's smile remained unchanged. "I think I've heard of her."
Oh, it seems you weren't a fan yet at this point.
Cen Yu nodded knowingly to himself, combining the timeline from the original work—this man probably became a fan after watching Yu Xinyu's variety show.
After all, in that variety show, Yu Xinyu was portrayed as very kind and understanding.
Before the man could say anything more, his phone vibrated. He glanced down at it, thanked Cen Yu again for forgiving his abrupt behavior and for helping him.
You're too kind.
Cen Yu thought to himself, "I really didn't expect you, Lao Tie, to become such a fanatical fan later on."
He mentally grumbled, but simply nodded calmly until the man left the courtyard. Only then did he exhale and sit on the sofa in the living room—he looked up at the retro-styled fan overhead, which was more decorative than practical.
"trouble."
...
Yu Xinyu sat in the largest courtyard of the villa for a long time.
His legs were almost numb from sitting, but Yu Jinheng still hadn't appeared... He suppressed his impatience and looked at his older brother's assistant, who had been with him for many years, "Where is he?"
"Mr. Yu has some matters to attend to," the assistant repeated, saying something he had said countless times before. "Young Master will need to wait a little longer."
The reason Yu Xinyu was still able to wait patiently here was because he had received a message from his elder brother before entering the courtyard—
[Wait for me in the meeting room.]
If you dare leave early, watch out for that stray dog's life.
He spoke very rudely... However, Yu Xinyu sat obediently in the reception room when she saw the message.
If he himself only had some minor flaws, then his older brother was truly insane... the kind of person no one in the entire Yu family dared to mess with. He reached this position at such a young age, not just because of his abilities and skills, but because he was genuinely insane.
The fact that Yu Jinheng dared to say such things meant that he truly dared to do them.
About half an hour later, just as Yu Xinyu was calling to urge him for the 20th time, his older brother finally slowly appeared in the courtyard.
Upon seeing him, a faint smile remained on his face. He was wearing a light-colored top and coughed a few times as he walked in, seemingly unable to bear the cold outside. As soon as he entered, the secretary quickly draped a new coat over him.
He looked at Yu Xinyu with a smile.
"She's quite well-behaved."
He spoke casually, then sat down in the chair his assistant had pulled out.
His assistant had been with him for so long that he understood his meaning without him having to say anything, so after making the tea, he immediately left the meeting room.
"...What exactly did you call me here for?" Yu Xinyu said impatiently.
Yu Jinheng didn't look at him, but rubbed his wrist and then reached for the teacup.
Yu Xinyu immediately shut up when she saw the ugly and hideous scar on her older brother's wrist.
Saying Yu Jinheng is crazy isn't just an adjective; he really did stay in the hospital for a long time. He didn't seem to care about the scars on his wrists, which wasn't a secret in their circle. Everyone knew about the messy things in Old Yu's family and why Old Yu was taken in by the people who had separated from the family and those women outside, ultimately leading to Yu Jinheng being sent to the hospital.
Yu Jinheng never covered up the scars on his wrists, and he never even wore a watch, because he found it amusing how people would fall silent after seeing the bite marks on his wrists.
