Chapter 342 Ying Yuexuan, are you worthy? [1st Update]
It was the time when school let out, and the school gate was bustling with people, including many parents and students.
Especially since the people involved are Ying Zijin and Ying Yuexuan.
Both of them were quite famous in Qingzhi, and Ying Zijin was almost regarded as a genius by all three grades of high school.
In addition, there's Meng Ru.
Meng Ru's attire is the most fashionable style in the capital city at the moment, which is different from that in Shanghai.
But it's not hard to tell that she comes from a wealthy family, and she has an imposing presence.
Upon seeing this scene, many students stopped, half puzzled and half astonished.
Ying Zijin also stopped and turned around.
Her phoenix eyes were cool and indifferent, devoid of any emotion, like snow on a distant mountain.
It was hazy and indistinct, yet it also carried a sense of desolation and steepness.
Meng Ru's expression froze for a moment, almost unable to withstand the gaze that drifted over to her.
How can an adopted daughter possess such a powerful aura?
The reason Ying Yuexuan chose this time to go see Ying Zijing was not only because she genuinely wanted to see Ying Tianlu, but also because she wanted Meng Ru to see her.
Because she knew that Ying Zijing would never pay attention to her.
With a secret sense of pleasure, she boasted to Ying Zijing that she had one foot already in the capital.
"Auntie, you're really funny." Xiu Yu turned around, put one hand on Ying Zijing's shoulder, and pointed at Meng Ru with the other. "Sister? Asking for help? Do you know how the Ying family treated our Zijing?"
These words startled both Ying Yuexuan and Meng Ru.
Ying Yuexuan almost knew what Xiu Yu was going to say, but she couldn't stop him.
"Auntie, just ask the students around here. Is there anyone who doesn't know that the Ying family is using Zijing as a living blood bank? Do you understand what a living blood bank is?" Xiu Yu said coldly. "Zijing is almost dead in the Ying family, and now you know to ask her for help? Where were you all this time?"
The students who had stopped speaking also began to speak.
"Yes, although Ying Luwei is the culprit, Ying Shen is not a saint. Why should she forgive the Ying family?"
"You still have the nerve to talk about Ying Shen's family upbringing. If it were me, and a member of the Ying family came to me, I would kick them all away."
Ying Yuexuan's face gradually turned deathly pale.
"So, auntie, I advise you to stop talking nonsense before you understand the facts. Do you know why Xiaoming's grandfather could live to be ninety years old, while you can only live to be fifty?" Xiu Yu clicked his tongue. "Because Xiaoming's grandfather never meddles in other people's business."
The surrounding students booed, their voices dripping with sarcasm.
Before marrying into the Yuan family, Meng Ru was a well-known socialite in the capital with extremely high manners, but she was still angered by Xiu Yu's words and turned pale.
Moreover, no one had ever spoken to her like that before.
Although the Yuan family doesn't even rank in the top ten in the capital, they are still a medium-sized family with considerable influence.
Meng Ru's face turned pale and then red. She gritted her teeth and sneered, "You...you really have no manners!"
"And you, Ying Yuexuan." Xiu Yu rolled her eyes, ignoring Meng Ru, and then looked at Ying Yuexuan, "What about you? Don't pretend to be sisters here. Calling someone 'little sister' is beneath you."
She hates people like Ying Yuexuan the most.
Sometimes she's timid and hesitant, unable to speak clearly; other times she's neither humble nor arrogant.
This caused unnecessary misunderstandings and brought Ying Zijin unnecessary trouble.
"That's hilarious." Xiu Yu stroked his chin. "You can't find your brother, so you're asking Zi Jin for him. Are you implying that Zi Jin is the eldest daughter of the Ying family? Hmm?"
These words completely changed Ying Yuexuan's expression.
More and more eyes were drawn to me, feeling like thorns in my back, making it almost unbearable.
She had heard people at school say that she was not as good as Ying Zijin in academics, appearance, or even in arts and sports.
But a year ago, they didn't say that.
They all said that Ying Zijing was not as smart, capable, sensible, or elegant as her.
Ying Yuexuan never imagined that things would take such a dramatic turn after she had only been in O Continent for a year.
What else does she have that can compare to Ying Zijin?
She is only the eldest daughter of the Ying family.
But this identity is also fake.
But she had to hold onto it.
Meng Ru was also getting agitated, but she still put on a fierce front: "Yuexuan, let's go, let's not stoop to the level of these commoners."
The two walked steadily, but their backs looked rather disheveled.
The students then dispersed.
Ying Zijing yawned, took a small box out of her pocket, and handed it to Xiu Yu: "Thank you, this is a tip."
Xiu Yu knew what was in the box.
It's a pill.
It can beautify the skin, tighten the skin, and naturally moisturize.
“Okay, Father Ying.” Xiu Yu immediately accepted it. “If there are any more good things like this in the future, let me do it.”
She gets a reward for swearing her heart out—what a wonderful job! She does it all!
Ying Zijin raised an eyebrow: "I almost hope it's not there."
Xiu Yu put the small box into her backpack: "What's wrong?"
Ying Zijin said indifferently, "Annoying."
“That’s true.” Xiu Yu thought for a moment, “But people have mouths, and there’s no way to make them shut up.”
"It doesn't matter, we won't see each other again after high school graduation." Ying Zijing glanced at her phone. "Someone's here to pick us up, this way."
**
On the bus.
Meng Ru sat in the back, feeling extremely annoyed.
Ying Yuexuan lowered her head and said, "I'm sorry, Madam Yuan, I'm sorry you had to see this."
"This isn't your fault, it has nothing to do with you." Meng Ru frowned and said indifferently, "Your aunt is really shameless."
She had heard about the Ying family's affairs, so she felt even more sorry for Ying Yuexuan.
She was so young when her own aunt threw her out, but thankfully she was eventually found.
“Actually, my aunt…” Ying Yuexuan pursed her lips, but still didn’t speak.
She felt that Ying Luwei was quite pitiful, and she could understand some of the things she did.
Meng Ru looked up and glanced in the direction of the girl again, her eyes pausing slightly.
A man wearing a mask stood in front of the girl.
He is tall and upright, with broad shoulders, a narrow waist, and long, powerful legs, making him a figure that even international supermodels would find hard to match.
Short black hair, light amber eyes, and porcelain-colored skin.
Besides that, there's nothing else to see.
Meng Ru withdrew her gaze.
Ying Zijing is not worth her attention; her most important task right now is to nurture Ying Yuexuan.
Ying Yuexuan has a great talent for computers, which is exactly what the Yuan family needs.
Meng Ru calmly instructed the driver, "Drive."
**
On the other side.
Drinking in the maple forest.
This vegetarian restaurant is very popular, and its architecture is also antique.
There is a temple nearby, and monks sometimes come here to eat.
Ling Chonglou reserved the largest private room and used his internal energy to seal off the surrounding area.
With such a powerful ancient martial arts master here, no one dared to come.
Nie Chao was the first to arrive. This time, he didn't wear the flashy pink suit; he dressed properly.
Ling Chonglou nodded: "Young Master Nie, where is your elder brother?"
“My older brother is incredibly busy, and he’s been flying abroad frequently lately.” Nie Chao sat down casually. “It’s tough on me; I’m being tormented by the old man every day.”
Ling Chonglou sneered: "Then you deserve it. If your grandfather hadn't tormented you, you would have been tricked out of your pants one day."
Nie Chao: "..."
He was simply deceived emotionally and financially.
A little while later, Ying Zijin, Fu Yunshen, and Xiu Yu also arrived.
Xiu Yu reacted quickly, getting ahead of Jiang Ran and taking the spot next to Ying Zijin.
Jiang Ran's face darkened, and he could only reluctantly sit down next to Ling Chonglou.
"This must be Zijing?" Ling Chonglou looked at the girl with admiration. "Xiaohua has been mentioning you to me. You truly are an exceptional person."
“That’s right.” Jiang Huaping smiled. “I’ve always had a good eye; I’m not blind.”
Ying Zijin nodded and greeted the two of them.
Fu Yunshen lifted his eyelids slightly, then naturally raised his hand to take off her scarf.
While the group was chatting, the first round of dishes arrived.
Jiang Ran immediately picked up his chopsticks and was about to start eating.
"Wait, not everyone has arrived yet," Ling Chonglou said. "Your cousin went shopping at Century Mall and won't be here for a while. You can eat when she gets here."
With a "clatter," the chopsticks in Jiang Ran's hand fell to the ground.
For the first time, he showed a truly distraught expression: "My cousin is here?"
Xiu Yu's expression also cracked: "His cousin is here?"
"You brat." Ling Chonglou slapped his head and laughed in exasperation. "Don't show that kind of expression in front of your cousin. After all, you should know that whatever your cousin does to you, your dad won't care."
This is a rule of the Ling family.
Elders should not interfere in the affairs of younger generations, lest it disrupt fairness.
Even in a life-or-death struggle.
This was the first time Ying Zijing had ever seen Jiang Ran and Xiu Yu with such expressions: "What happened to his cousin?"
“His cousin—” Fu Yunshen pondered for a moment, then raised an eyebrow and said slowly, “You’ll find out soon enough.”
Ten minutes later, the door to the private room opened.
