Chapter 327 Ying Tianlu Abuses Ying Yuexuan, Invincible Ying God [1st Update]
How could a sibling relationship built up over a decade be broken by an outsider?
Besides, he was just saying it; Ying Zijing couldn't even hear it, so what loss could she possibly suffer?
The steward has been working for the Ying family for almost thirty years and has long considered himself a member of the Ying family.
Both Ying Zhenting and Zhong Manhua would listen to his opinions.
Most importantly, he worked for the Ying family, with room and board provided, and earned a monthly salary of 500,000. All he had to do was direct the servants and arrange everything in the old mansion.
If he gets fired by the Ying family, where will he find such a good job?
Furthermore, the Ying family is one of the four great powerful families.
The servants who were personally dismissed by the four major wealthy families would be avoided by other families like the plague, so of course they wouldn't use them.
Regardless, the steward was unwilling to leave the Ying family.
"Just a few words?" Ying Tianlu grabbed the butler's collar, forcing him to stand up, and said indifferently, "It seems you've done this many times before, and you're quite adept at it, so you think it's unnecessary."
The butler's expression changed: "Young Master, I didn't—"
"Everyone come here." Ying Tianlu didn't look at Ying Yuexuan, but summoned the servants in the old house, "Stand in line one by one."
The servants dared not do anything improper and immediately ran over.
Some are on rotating shifts or holidays, and together with the gardeners, there are a total of 25 people.
“What else have you heard him say normally?” Ying Tianlu glanced around. “Tell us, or we’ll all get out of here with him.”
Upon hearing this, the butler's face turned even paler, and his body trembled uncontrollably.
The servants panicked and blurted out all the grievances, vying to tell their stories.
"The housekeeper said that the second young lady is only good-looking, and she flirts with one man after another every day. She is shameless."
"The steward also said that the second young lady is really ill-mannered and deserves to be disliked by the madam and the master."
"besides……"
Ying Tianlu couldn't listen anymore. He clenched his fist and slammed it into the butler's face. "Beast!"
If he hadn't overheard it today, he would never have known that back then, when Ying Zijing was in the Ying family, even the servants dared to trample on her.
"Young Miss!" The butler, his mouth and eyes split open from the beating, cried out in terror, "Young Miss, please beg the Young Master!"
Ying Yuexuan had never seen Ying Tianlu so angry.
When she was in junior high school, she was harassed by some thugs. Ying Tianlu kicked one of them without saying a word and sent him to the police station.
But there was no such rage.
Moreover, this outburst of anger was for Ying Zijin's sake.
“Brother, it’s just a few words, there’s no need for this.” Ying Yuexuan took a deep breath, feeling very upset. “Uncle Butler knows he was wrong. He’s been with our family for so long, he’s worked hard even if he hasn’t done anything particularly meritorious.”
Ying Tianlu merely glanced at her without saying anything.
But that one glance made Ying Yuexuan sense something was wrong. She paused, stunned: "Brother?"
"Do you know how many times Ying Luwei's fans subjected her to cyberbullying?" Ying Tianlu's eyes were deep. "She has bipolar disorder, which is a mental illness. In severe cases, it can lead to suicide. Do you know that?"
Ying Yuexuan's heart skipped a beat, and she pursed her lips: "I...I don't know."
At first, she thought about helping Ying Zijing improve her grades, but later she realized that her idea was a joke.
After that, she no longer wanted to have any contact with Ying Zijing.
“Xiao Xuan, you’ve always told me you care about her and treat her like a younger sister, but it seems that’s not the case now.” Ying Tianlu smiled, his expression indifferent and cold. “You’re just talking; you haven’t taken any action.”
“You’re using her identity, her old name and birthday. You know she’s suffered for over a decade, yet you still let others insult her, saying it’s nothing.”
“I treat you like a younger sister, but if we’re talking about who’s the outsider, it’s you. You don’t need to call me brother anymore. I only have one sister, Zijing.”
Ying Yuexuan was struck dumb, almost unable to believe that Ying Tianlu would say such a thing about her.
Moreover, they directly stated her identity.
The servants, unaware of the details, were utterly astonished.
So, the Second Miss is actually the real Eldest Miss?!
What's going on here?
The butler felt a chill run through him, and his mind was buzzing.
how so?
How long has Ying Tianlu been back, and he already values Ying Zijing more than Ying Yuexuan?
"And hard work?" Ying Tianlu's gaze fell back on the butler. "I don't think so."
He sat down on the sofa and waited for the servant he had sent out earlier to return and report.
Everyone was too scared to breathe.
Half an hour later, the servant returned and handed Ying Tianlu a few sheets of paper.
The paper clearly listed the valuables that the steward had taken from the Ying family's old residence over the years. They weren't large, but they added up to tens of millions.
“Thirty-five million,” Ying Tianlu said calmly. “That’s enough to file a case.”
He was just wondering how to deal with the housekeeper, and this was a godsend.
The butler was completely panicked, not expecting these things to be exposed: "Young Master, I was wrong! I was really wrong! Please give me a chance, please."
He always kept these things very secret.
The things he took from the Ying family's old house were all small items, the kind that Zhong Manhua wouldn't care about.
The servants were back under his command, and for over twenty years, no one noticed.
After selling these small items, he squandered a sum of money on himself and used the rest to supplement his household expenses.
"Alright, I'll give you a chance." Ying Tianlu stood up. "If you can identify more than five other people who have said the same thing about Zijing, I won't call the police."
"Him, and her!" the butler cried out as if grasping at a straw. "They've all said things about these women, and they've said even worse things than I have!"
Several servants whose names were called immediately went weak in the knees and knelt down with a thud.
"Pack your things." Ying Tianlu's gaze was icy. "Get out of here immediately."
After saying that, he picked up his phone and said, "I need to call the police. Someone is stealing."
"Young Master!" The butler looked up abruptly. "Didn't you say—"
"What did you say?" Ying Tianlu hung up the phone and then pulled him up by the collar. "Let's go to the police station."
The door opened and closed again, letting in a blast of cold air.
Ying Yuexuan stood there alone, lost in thought.
**
The next day.
Qingzhi Middle School.
After the start of the ISC semi-finals, Ying Zijing instead began a very leisurely retirement life.
Because no one challenged her at all.
She abandoned the idea of retirement and even took the initiative to launch challenges, but all of them, including Amanda who was ranked second on the overall leaderboard, voluntarily conceded defeat.
Xiu Yu, who sat next to Ying Zijing, watched helplessly as Ying Zijing's father did nothing, yet his score remained firmly in first place.
Xiu Yu: "..."
How lonely it is to be invincible.
Beside him, the younger brother was very unhappy and started humming along with Dudu: "I don't want Father Ying to teach other classes, I'm just that petty."
After Ying Zijing returned from the ISC training camp in the capital, the principal had been wanting her to give a large lecture to the high school students.
"Alright, it's only one session anyway." Xiu Yu didn't care. "Let's go, let's go and grab some seats in advance."
There were still 30 minutes until 2:00 PM, but the Great Hall of the People was almost full.
The students in Class 19 never expected Ying Zijin to be so popular. They couldn't even find a seat, let alone save one.
Jiang Ran patted his clothes and sat down in the aisle.
When the time came, the Great Hall was packed with people.
This scene was even more spectacular than when Shang Yaozhi came to give a lecture last time.
After all, there are many people who don't follow celebrities; they are more interested in learning.
The students from the gifted class were also there, including Ying Yuexuan, who were all sitting on the far left.
As Ying Yuexuan watched Ying Zijin walk onto the podium, and then recalled what Ying Tianlu had said to her yesterday, she didn't know what to feel.
All eyes around her were fixed on the girl.
There are some people who, just by standing there, are born to shine.
In order to cater to both arts and science students, Ying Zijin speaks English.
The students listened intently.
"Xiaoxuan, Ying Shen is amazing!" the girl next to Ying Yuexuan said excitedly. "Her systematic learning method is also very useful for us."
Ying Yuexuan didn't say anything.
Forty-five minutes passed quickly, and as the get out of class was about to end, the teacher in charge of the class picked up the microphone and said, "Does anyone have any questions? We have five minutes left, and we'll ask a few students to ask questions."
Upon hearing this, the students became even more excited, but they asked questions that left the teacher both amused and exasperated.
Phrases like "Ying Shen, what type of guy do you like?" or "Ying Shen, have you ever considered getting a boyfriend?"
“I have a question that I don’t understand, and I want to ask you, Sister… Ying Zijing.” At this moment, Ying Yuexuan raised her hand. “This question is difficult for me, but I think you, Sister Ying Zijing, will definitely be able to solve it.”
