Chapter 518: It Was All For Her
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
After walking out of the shop, Zhao Linlin finally reacted and hurriedly asked, “Jinyu, I kicked her just now. Will she be alright?”
After she kicked Liu Minmin, she didn’t care about her anymore. She was afraid that she would come and pull her away again, so she quickly turned and left with Yan Jinyu and the others. She didn’t even notice if she had injured Liu Minmin.
“With your puny strength, what can happen?” Qin Xuan replied.
“Don’t worry, she won’t die. It’s just that it’s not easy to do it with people present. If it’s a deserted place, that kick of yours would be considered light. I’ll still have to go up and give her a kick! Who the hell is she? Who is she looking down on!”
Yan Jinyu didn’t say anything and only smiled faintly.
Seeing them like this, Zhao Linlin heaved a sigh of relief.
Her gaze landed on the few people beside her.
She had heard the person-in-charge of the mall call them “Madam” and “Eldest Young Madam” just now. She did not know much about the top wealthy families in the capital initially, but because her roommates were not simple people, she more or less knew a little about them now.
Especially after knowing Yan Jinyu’s fiancé’s identity, she and Qin Xuan would chat occasionally when they were in school. Qin Xuan roughly told her about the Yin Family in the capital and the Yin Family’s members.
One of them was Master Nine’s mother while the other was Master Nine’s sister-in-law.
She was really a little nervous walking beside such important people.
If she was just alone, she would not have any interactions with these people. Even if she knew their identities, she might not be nervous as they would never interact.
However, it was different now. She was Jinyu’s roommate.
Of course, she also felt that she was Jinyu’s friend.
She was afraid that she would behave badly and embarrass Jinyu.
She heard that the ladies of top-notch families were usually very picky. What if they felt that Jinyu had a friend like her and had something against Jinyu because of her…
It wasn’t that she felt that she was bad and wasn’t worthy to be friends with anyone. It was just that… she was afraid that the ladies of the wealthy families would have restrictions on their daughter-in-law’s standards of friends.
With Yan Jinyu’s sharp senses, she naturally sensed the change in Zhao Linlin’s emotions immediately.
Just as she was about to speak, Qin Jianjia beat her to it.
Qin Jianjia looked at Zhao Linlin and smiled gently. “Are you and our Yu’er roommates? I rarely see Yu’er make friends…”
Of course, people like Xi Fengling and Huo Siyu did not count.
They were people who had gone through life and death with Yu’er. Yu’er was friends with them and had a life-and-death relationship with them. They trusted each other.
Zhao Linlin and Qin Xuan were considered Yu’er’s new friends.
She thought that with Yu’er’s seemingly gentle but, in fact, cold and unapproachable personality, she would not make any friends in school. She was still a little worried for Yu’er.
She didn’t want Yu’er to live in the past forever. Since she had already ended the past, she should start a new life. She shouldn’t immerse herself in the past anymore. She should interact with more ordinary people and make more friends. Slowly, she would become as happy as ordinary girls her age.
“You said you want to buy a gown. Do you have any requests? I’m familiar with the mall. I can introduce them to you.”
“Oh, I forgot to introduce myself. I’m Yu’er’s sister-in-law.”
“…Hello. My name is Zhao Linlin. I’m Jinyu’s roommate.” Qin Jianjia suddenly spoke to Zhao Linlin, making her unable to react. She was also a little flattered.
At the same time, she thought to herself that she had worried too much.
Indeed, television dramas and novels were unbelievable. The ladies of such top-notch families were clearly educated, reasonable, and gentle.
However, she also knew that there was a saying, “Love me, love my dog”.
If they didn’t treat Jinyu well, they probably wouldn’t have treated her like this either.
There was no need to treat her with such an attitude.
It was good that Jinyu’s fiancé’s family was like this.
Recently, she had learned a lot. For example, although the Yan Family was considered the number one family in North City, they were completely incomparable to a top-notch family like the Yin Family in the capital. As for Jinyu and the Yan Family…
It was said that they had cut ties.
She was a little worried for Jinyu at first.
Not to mention that Jinyu had cut ties with the Yan Family, even if she didn’t, even if she was the favored eldest daughter of the Yan Family in North City, she still didn’t have enough backing to marry into a family like the Yin Family. She would be easily bullied.
Now that she saw that the Yin Family was willing to love Jinyu, she was relieved.
“I don’t have any special requests for the gown as long as I can attend Xuanxuan’s birthday party. I won’t trouble you with such a small matter. I’ll just walk around casually. I’ll definitely find something suitable.”
“Alright then. However, since we met here, let’s shop together. Yu’er doesn’t have anyone to talk to when she goes shopping with us.”
Qin Jianjia’s attitude towards Zhao Linlin wasn’t entirely dependent on Yan Jinyu.
Most of all, Zhao Linlin gave her a good impression.
Perhaps because she could tell that Zhao Linlin was afraid that she would disturb them if she shopped together with them, Qin Jianjia continued to smile gently. “Xuanxuan is my cousin. We haven’t shopped together for a long time. It’s rare for us to meet, so we can shop together.”
“Indeed. Sister Jianjia is usually busy with work and I have to go to school. It’s indeed a long time since I went shopping with Sister Jianjia.” Qin Xuan didn’t think too much about it. She simply agreed with Qin Jianjia’s suggestion.
“Linlin, shall we go together? Sister Jianjia has good taste. She can give us advice on the gown. Jinyu is also here. Everyone can help us choose a gown.”
Qin Xuan had always said “we”. Actually, she only came today to accompany Zhao Linlin to buy a gown. She was the star of her birthday party and her gown had to be custom-made.
She wanted to give Zhao Linlin one gown too, but Zhao Linlin rejected her as soon as she spoke.
After spending so much time together, Qin Xuan understood Zhao Linlin’s temper. Since Zhao Linlin rejected her, she didn’t insist anymore.
Zhao Linlin had been working part-time recently, so she didn’t lack the money to buy a gown.
In the future, she would just treat Zhao Linlin to a few more meals in school.
Since Qin Xuan had already said so, Zhao Linlin couldn’t say anything else.
“Alright.”
She said politely to Qin Jianjia, “I’ll have to trouble you then.”
“Why are you so polite? We’re all shopping together. What’s there to disturb?”
At this moment, Min Qinglan, who was walking beside Qin Jianjia, said, “This shop then.”
Yan Jinyu took a look. This was a gown shop, but it wasn’t for someone Min Qinglan’s age. It was more suitable for young people.
She glanced at Min Qinglan twice.
However, Min Qinglan did not look at her. She walked into the shop first awkwardly.
Yin Xiaoxiao’s gaze wandered between the two of them. She was even more certain of the guess she had deduced from seeing the two of them interacting these few days.
It seemed fine when the two of them interacted, but as long as one observed carefully, it was very easy to notice her sister-in-law’s attitude towards Yu’er.
It was very awkward.
It seemed like she wanted to treat Yu’er well, but she did it in a roundabout way. She was not direct about it at all.
Based on her understanding of her sister-in-law, she probably didn’t know that Yu’er was not simple back then. Because of Yu’er’s background and 16 years of disappearance, she looked down on Yu’er and even had a conflict with her.
She had heard about it. When Yu’er came back, the rumors about her were that she grew up in an orphanage in a rural town and dropped out of school to work after graduating from junior high…
Oh, it was not only when Yu’er had just returned. Everyone who was unaware of the situation still thought so too.
Her sister-in-law was someone who valued status very much. When she was with Feng Li, the “orphan”, her sister-in-law, who was her good friend then, had always persuaded her to consider it carefully.
Not to mention choosing a daughter-in-law.
However, Eldest Sister-in-law seemed to be a little afraid of Yu’er. Presumably, she must have been frightened by Yu’er when she didn’t like Yu’er and went to find trouble with her.
The number one killer might look like an obedient and pure 19-year-old girl, but her dignity was not something that anyone could offend.
Fortunately, Sister-in-law only seemed to know that Yu’er was not simple and did not know Yu’er’s identity. Otherwise, with Sister-in-law’s courage, she would definitely not dare to approach Yu’er, let alone shop together.
However, Sister-in-law should meet such a daughter-in-law. Otherwise, she would not be so well-behaved now.
And Jin’er’s temper was…
She heard that during the years that she wasn’t at home, Jin’er had a conflict with his family. It was only after Yu’er came back that their relationship eased up.
If Yu’er was easy to bully and her sister-in-law continued to find trouble with Yu’er, with Jin’er’s concern for her, who knew what would happen to the family.
Anyway, she liked Yu’er very much. She was cute, valiant, beautiful, and delicate.
If she hadn’t been engaged to Jin’er long ago and their relationship was good, she really wanted to abduct her to be her own daughter-in-law.
Speaking of which, her son was even older than Jin’er. Although he was only months older, Jin’er was almost getting engaged. Meanwhile, her son…
Ever since he returned to the Yin Family, his son rarely went out and stayed in his courtyard every day. If she hadn’t asked someone to call him out, he probably would have eaten his meals in his courtyard.
And judging from the reaction of the other Yin Family members, this situation seemed to be good!
Not leaving the courtyard for 10 years…
Every time she thought about how her son had suffered all these years, her heart ached.
She retracted her thoughts. “Yu’er.”
Yan Jinyu stopped.
“Will you invite your roommates to your engagement party?”
“Yes, Auntie, why are you asking that?”
“I want to say that since you’re inviting them, why don’t you buy the gown that your roommate is going to wear to attend your engagement party today?”
“When we left the house, Jin’er said that all the expenses today are on his tab. You don’t have to worry about whether your roommate will accept it. When the time comes, just give her two gowns and tell her an appropriate price. If she really feels that it’s inappropriate, just say that this is Jin’er’s place and you have given her a discount. She won’t find it so difficult to accept it then.”
That girl did not come from a high family background. Yin Xiaoxiao still had this judgment.
Most importantly, she could tell that she was not a girl who liked to take advantage of others.
Looking at Yu’er’s personality, it seemed rare for her to make friends too.
Yan Jinyu thought that Yin Xiaoxiao was going to say something else. After hearing that, she smiled. “Alright.”
She had actually thought of this long ago.
Even if Yin Xiaoxiao didn’t say it, she would still do it.
Two gowns were nothing to her, but to Zhao Linlin, it was indeed a huge expense.
Especially since Zhao Linlin even had to work part-time for her living expenses.
However, Zhao Linlin was quite capable. She was said to be doing home tutoring. Her work was not tiring. In a place like the capital, there were many wealthy families. The family that she was tutoring was not bad either, so her salary was not low.
There was no problem with paying for her living expenses.
However, she didn’t expect Yin Xiaoxiao to even consider this.
She knew very well that Yin Xiaoxiao naturally wasn’t concerned about Zhao Linlin. She didn’t even know Zhao Linlin. There was no need for her to care about someone she didn’t know.
It was because of her.
“By the way, Yu’er.”
Yan Jinyu looked at her in confusion.
“I wanted to ask if you know any good girls. Can you introduce them to your cousin?”
