What did it mean when a cooked duck flew away? This was it.
Yan Ruyu felt as if she had been struck by lightning as she watched Yan Jiuchao sweep away the three children that she had painstakingly found like a hurricane.
Aunt Lin, who was at the side, was not any better. Although she knew that Young Master Yan would receive the news sooner or later, she did not expect him to come so swiftly and decisively. He even took away Miss’s children without asking.
Of course, they were also his children.
But in the end, they were raised by Miss. Shouldn’t he at least ask Miss? How could he be so domineering and arbitrary?!
Even though Aunt Lin was full of complaints and grievances, she did not dare to show any dissatisfaction in front of Yan Jiuchao.
Yan Jiuchao’s guards entered in a flash and each picked up a baby each.
The three little fellows did not even have a chance to struggle before they were carried into their father’s carriage.
Yan Jiuchao left after he got what he wanted.
From the beginning to the end, he did not say a word to Yan Ruyu. He did not even look at her.
No matter how good Yan Ruyu’s self-restraint was, she could not hold it in anymore. It was fine if she was mocked by an ignorant village girl, but why did even the children’s father ignore her?!
Just as Yan Ruyu was about to cry from anger, Yan Jiuchao, who had strode away, returned with a strange expression. This time, he was here for the women in the room.
Yan Ruyu was delighted when she saw Yan Jiuchao walking towards her. He… he still recognized her in the end!
But in the next second, Yan Jiuchao brushed past her.
Yan Ruyu, who was struck by lightning again: “…”
Yan Jiuchao walked towards Yu Wan and Bai Tang.
Bai Tang’s eyelids twitched! What was this lunatic doing?!
Bai Tang pulled Yu Wan back, but there was a bed behind her. Her back knee hit the edge of the bed and she fell onto the soft bed.
Miss Bai, who was known as the overlord of Lotus Flower Town, had never been in such a sorry state.
On the other hand, Yu Wan did not panic at all. She calmly watched as Yan Jiuchao, who had scared Bai Tang out of her wits, stopped a step away from her.
Yu Wan was considered tall among women, but in front of Yan Jiuchao, she looked petite.
Yu Wan gently raised her head and met his probing gaze.
“Have I seen you somewhere before?” Yan Jiuchao said.
At this moment, Uncle Wan chased after them while panting. He explained in a low voice, “She’s the girl who mistakenly boarded our carriage at the courier station that day.”
The carriage that day was his? Yu Wan was surprised.
“Is that so?” Yan Jiuchao looked at Yu Wan and narrowed his eyes.
Uncle Wan said, “What else? Has Young Master seen this girl before?”
Yan Jiuchao had no impression of her.
However, Yan Jiuchao vaguely felt that he did not see her on the carriage at all. That time, she only revealed a little red face in the carriage, which didn’t look like her at all.
To be honest, Yu Wan also felt a sense of déjà vu when she first saw him. However, Yu Wan quickly understood that it was because he looked too similar to the young kids. How could a country bumpkin like her have seen the Young Master of Yan City long ago?
“She, she’s your children’s savior! She was the one who snatched your sons back from the robbers! She even encountered assassins on the way! She risked her life to save your sons!” Afraid that this temperamental young master would go crazy at the slightest disagreement, Bai Tang took the risk of having her head taken off and spoke up for Yu Wan!
“Is that so?” It was another question, but this time, Yan Jiuchao’s tone was more intriguing.
“What’s your surname?” Yan Jiuchao stared straight at her and asked.
Uncle Wan: You don’t have to stare at her like that. She’s not shameless even if you are!
“Yu,” Yu Wan said calmly. There was no panic or shyness on her face.
“Beauty Yu’s Yu?” Yan Jiuchao took half a step forward and asked cynically.
“Yu Boya’s Yu,” Yu Wan replied seriously.
Yan Jiuchao sneered. “What? You want to find a soulmate?”
Bai Tang: Is this person crazy?!
The two of them were too close to each other, and even their breaths were intertwined. The onlookers were frightened, but the two of them were calmer than the other.
“Young Master Yan.” Yan Ruyu mustered her courage and spoke. She was far away and couldn’t hear what the two of them said, but she thought that it should be to thank her for saving his children’s lives. It couldn’t be that he took a fancy to her, a lowly village girl, right? How was that possible?
As proud as she was, she did not think that there was such a possibility at all. However, she was also unwilling to be treated like air. She was the mother of the three children and Yan Jiuchao’s fiancée. She was the only woman in this room who should be treated differently by Yan Jiuchao.
She walked to Yan Jiuchao’s side and looked at that perfect handsome face. She smiled gently and said, “I’ve already prepared a thank you gift. I’ll thank Miss Yu.”
The words had a hidden meaning. Yan Jiuchao did not look at her properly when he entered the room. It was most likely because he did not recognize her. After hearing her words just now, he should have asked, “Who are you? Why do you have to thank her?” In that case, she could go with the flow and introduce herself.
“No need.” Unexpectedly, Yan Jiuchao refused without thinking.
Yan Ruyu was stunned.
Yan Jiuchao looked at Yu Wan deeply and said meaningfully, “I’ll personally thank the savior of my children.”
However, he did not say how he would thank her. He turned around and left, leaving the room full of people looking at each other.
Yan Ruyu’s face darkened completely. She was so angry that her nails dug into her flesh and her body trembled slightly.
Seeing that the situation was bad, Aunt Lin hurriedly pulled her out.
Only Bai Tang and Yu Wan were left in the room.
Bai Tang patted her chest in relief and looked at Yu Wan strangely. “Why aren’t you afraid at all?”
Yu Wan let her hold her palm.
Bai Tang was shocked. “Ah, you’re sweating!”
Yu Wan nodded. Although she appeared calm, her emotions, which were rare, were shaken when she faced the man. It was not because she was afraid, but she could not answer the specific reason.
