Yin Jiujin didnt bring Yan Jinyu to the Lingering Garden early in the morning. Instead, he went to the company first and only brought Yan Jinyu over at about three in the afternoon.

The journey from the Empire Building to the Lingering Garden took more than an hour.

Yin Jiujin didnt drive personally. Cheng Lin drove while he and Yan Jinyu sat in the back seat.

This was Yan Jinyus first visit to the Lingering Garden.

It was similar to what she had imagined.

However, as soon as they got out of the car, a few people went out to welcome them personally.

They must have received Yin Jiujins message and deliberately waited here.

Now, the director of the Lingering Garden was no longer Yu Qingwans G.o.dfather, Meng Zhao. Instead, he was someone Yin Jiujin had sent over.

A man in his forties.

Master Nine, Miss Yu.

Yin Jiujin nodded slightly.

Yan Jinyu also nodded at him and didnt interfere. She let Yin Jiujin lead her to the pre-arranged private room.

To be precise, it was Yin Jiujins exclusive private room.

Yan Jinyu, who was following Yin Jiujin, glanced around and sized up her surroundings curiously. She looked innocent and cute.

Anyway, it seemed like that to the director and the others who had met Yan Jinyu for the first time.

Every time she looked around, Yin Jiujin would softly introduce to her what that place was meant for and whatever interesting things had happened to him there in the past.

His voice was low but gentle.

Be it the director of the Lingering Garden who led the way in front, or Cheng Lin and the others who followed behind, they were smart enough to stay away from them. They didnt dare to disturb them.

Of course, they were still shocked.

They were shocked that Master Nine had such a gentle and patient side.

They realized even more how important Miss Yu was to Master Nine.

When they arrived at Yin Jiujins exclusive private room, Yan Jinyu had observed almost a third of the Lingering Garden and heard Yin Jiujin say many interesting things that had happened to him here in the past.

From the looks of it, be it the vintage and elegant environment in the Lingering Garden or Yin Jiujins many beautiful memories here, Yan Jinyu liked it very much.

Yin Jiujins private room was on the second floor. The people downstairs couldnt see the situation in the private room when they were in it, but they in the private room could see the situation downstairs.

There was a stage downstairs and audience seats in front of it.

The first few rows were all lounge seats.

At this moment, Farewell My Concubine was being performed on the stage.

The audience seats were filled with people.

Some of the audience really liked watching opera. They bought tickets to watch almost every show. Some of the audience came with their elders. Some of the audience came purely to experience.

Yan Jinyu and Yin Jiujin sat in the private room. Yin Jiujin personally poured a cup of tea and handed it to her. Have you watched Beijing opera before?

Ive seen it before, Yan Jinyu replied weakly.

She had never had the mood to watch these things in the past. She only saw Beijing opera once on a mission when she had to grasp the whereabouts of the target of the mission and follow them to the Beijing opera garden.

She only took two casual glances. She did not notice what was going on on the stage.

Yin Jiujin recalled her past after he asked and saw her reaction. He fell silent for a few seconds and didnt continue on this question.

Do you like it?

Yan Jinyu looked at the scene on the stage and said against her conscience, I like it.

She admitted that this kind of traditional culture was worth spreading. There were also some people who were enthusiastic about it, but she She did not know if it was because she had killed too many people. Even though she had already settled down, she could not sit here and watch for a period of time.

Of course, it was fine to watch one or two shows occasionally to understand the Beijing opera or watch it to build her cultural appreciation.

She saw that Yin Jiujin seemed to like it very much, so she said that to go along with him.

Unexpectedly, Yin Jiujin actually said, Since you like it, Ill accompany you to watch it when I have the time in the future. Im not very interested in Beijing opera. Ive only watched it with Grandmother in the past.

Yan Jinyu looked at him with a complicated gaze.

Yin Jiujin took a sip of tea calmly. He sensed her gaze and couldnt help but look at her. Whats wrong?

She put on a fake smile. Nothing.

Yin Jiujin instantly understood when he saw her like this.

So she said that she liked Beijing opera because of him. This little girl.

Shall I bring you around after this show ends?

Indeed, as soon as he finished speaking, the young ladys eyes lit up. Sure!

Yin Jiujin chuckled.

He pinched her face. You.

He didnt pinch her hard. Before Yan Jinyu could glare at him unhappily, Yin Jiujin let go.

Knowing that Yan Jinyu wasnt very interested in Beijing opera, Yin Jiujin didnt intend to waste any time. He gently raised his hand and the director came over to report the situation in the Lingering Garden to him.

Yan Jinyu was bored sitting there. Seeing that Yin Jiujin wouldnt be done for a while, she said, Ill go out for a walk first. Brother Nine, call me when youre done.

Shall I get someone to lead the way for you?

Is there anywhere that I cant go to in the Lingering Garden? Yan Jinyu asked.

Yin Jiujin chuckled. Even if there is a forbidden area, theres no place in the Lingering Garden that you cant go as youre the future lady boss of the Lingering Garden.

In that case, Ill walk around by myself. I dont need anyone to lead the way. After saying that, she stood up and walked over. She bent down and kissed the corner of Yin Jiujins lips before quickly retreating as his eyes darkened.

She smiled brightly. Brother Nine, Ill make a move then.

Yin Jiujin was helpless and doting. Go ahead.

***

No one followed Yan Jinyu after she left the private room. She was much faster.

Walking around was only one of her purposes, but her main purpose was to deal with Yu Qingwan here.

Since Yu Qingwan was already useless, why should she continue to keep her around?

In fact, there was no need for her to settle Yu Qingwan herself. Most importantly, she had something to investigate in person.

No matter what, Yu Qingwan was Liu Junqings fiance. She might really be able to find out some information.

It was her first time in the Lingering Garden, but that did not mean that she knew nothing about it.

For example, she knew the map of the Lingering Garden and where Yu Qingwan lived now.

She just needed to head in that direction.

The further in she went, the more secluded the environment became.

Before she reached her destination, Yan Jinyu suddenly stopped in a quiet courtyard.

She gently raised her hand and blocked the sharp dagger that was coming at her from behind.

She turned around and retreated. She saw a masked person in a night suit stabbing at her with a dagger. She had some skills and her attacks were very sharp. Her eyes were filled with killing intent when she looked at her.

This was supposed to be an a.s.sa.s.sination, but in Yan Jinyus opinion, it was extremely stupid.

Was there something wrong with her as she was wearing a night suit for an a.s.sa.s.sination in broad daylight?

Was she afraid that others wouldnt notice her?

Yan Jinyu didnt make a move. She simply raised her leg and gave a roundhouse kick. That persons dagger was sent flying. With another kick, that person was also sent flying and fell heavily to the ground.

Because she was wearing a dress, Yan Jinyu didnt even use a third of her strength.

Obviously, the person who came to a.s.sa.s.sinate her was a weakling.

Yan Jinyu waved her left hand, and the dagger that she had kicked away landed in her hand. She slowly walked towards that person.

The person who was sent flying couldnt stand up for a long time. It was unknown if she was shocked by Yan Jinyus skills or frightened by the killing intent in Yan Jinyus eyes.

She retreated by pus.h.i.+ng herself backwards with trembling hands. Y-you dont come over!

It was a womans voice.

Yan Jinyu didnt waste her breath. She waved her left hand and removed the black veil on the womans face, revealing her face.

Yan Jinyu quickly dashed forward and stepped on her chest. She bent down and raised the womans chin with the dagger in her hand. Yo, youre even a little beauty.

The woman was indeed good-looking. She had a gentle look, but the fear in her eyes made people ignore her looks.

Y-you

What about me? The dagger slid down gently and pressed against her neck. You want to kill me with dilettantish skills like yours? Tsk!

She had seen Yu Qingwans photo. This was undoubtedly Yu Qingwan.

She had expected that Yu Qingwan wanted to kill her, but she didnt expect Yu Qingwan to be stupid enough to do it herself.

Who gave you the confidence to think that you can kill me by yourself alone?

H-how could you

Yu Qingwans reaction

Yan Jinyu immediately knew.

So Yu Qingwan didnt know her ident.i.ty.

It seemed like she was another abandoned chess piece.

If Liu Guang valued Yu Qingwan, how could he not tell Yu Qingwan her ident.i.ty? He even let Yu Qingwan court death by trying to kill her.

Yu Qingwan indeed didnt know Yan Jinyus ident.i.ty.

She had always wanted to kill Yan Jinyu.

She didnt succeed the last time and was even taught a lesson by Hei Yao. Of course, she didnt listen to Hei Yaos advice of lying low after that.

She had been looking for an opportunity to kill Yan Jinyu.

However, when she realized that someone was watching her and she could not find a chance to attack.

Just as she was feeling worried, she found out that Master Nine and Yan Jinyu had already moved to the capital. She thought that they would come to the Lingering Garden eventually, so she kept looking forward to this day.

She finally got her opportunity.

Just as she was worried that she couldnt find a chance to make a move, Yan Jinyu was left alone.

The G.o.ds were really helping her!

Yu Qingwan was extremely excited when she thought about how Yan Jinyu was going to die at her hands.

However, she had never expected Yan Jinyu to be so skilled!

She had heard from others that Yan Jinyu had some skills. Master Nine had taught her self-defense, but she didnt expect her to be so formidable!

How could this be simple self-defense skills!

She saw what Yan Jinyu swung out with her left hand. That was a legendary weapon!

Y-youre the number one killer, Chi! After shouting this, the fear in Yu Qingwans eyes intensified.

On the other side, Meng Zhao, who ran over after seeing Yu Qingwan being restrained, stopped in his tracks when he heard Yu Qingwan shout.

He stared at Yan Jinyu in disbelief.

The number one killer was this young girl in front of him?!

Little Yuer. At that moment, a gentle voice with a hint of coldness spoke up.

The man was wearing a white s.h.i.+rt and black trousers. The top two b.u.t.tons of his s.h.i.+rt were undone. He had a cold expression and a hand in his pocket as he walked over slowly.

His eyes were dark.

Meng Zhaos legs went limp. M-Master Nine.

Master Nine appeared here, so it was obvious who was subduing Waner!

Master Nines favored fiance!

Looking at Waners attire, even an idiot would know what she wanted to do.

He thought that this girl was just an ordinary guest, who had mistakenly entered this place, and wanted to simply send her away. He didnt expect her to be the eldest daughter of the Yan Family!

It was all over now. Waner was in big trouble!

He was already guilty. Master Nine only spared Waners life when he handed over the position of the director of the Lingering Garden. He even allowed them to stay in the courtyard in the deepest part of the Lingering Garden.

Now

Yan Jinyus gaze swept past Meng Zhao, whose legs were trembling. Her eyes were cold, and her entire body exuded the sharp killing intent that belonged to the number one killer.

However, when she looked at Yin Jiujin, her killing intent was completely restrained.
