After being reborn, I became the apple of my enemy's eye.

Chapter 112 The Granddaughter's Ruthlessness

Neither breadth of mind nor knowledge can be generalized.

Yan Yun admired him greatly.

It was noon.

Mr. Han insisted that he was getting old and hungry, and wanted to go back home for dinner.

The page boy came in to greet him.

Yan Yun led his men out to see him off onto the carriage.

Wait for the carriage to leave.

The little dumpling handed the silver she brought to Yan Yun. Yan Yun had invited her to dine at a restaurant yesterday, but she couldn't eat at his restaurant today. That's not how her parents taught her.

Yan Yun looked at the brand-new money bag and pushed it back.

Meanwhile, Qing'er came from the backyard to deliver a message, "Miss, they have prepared a meal in the backyard and would like you to come over."

The "them" that Qing'er mentioned were the people Huiying brought.

Yan Yun returned the money bag to Xiao Tuanzi and took her there.

In the backyard, the food has already been prepared.

However, the bowls and chopsticks prepared were only for Yan Yun and Xiao Tuanzi.

Qing'er knew what Yan Yun cared about. She explained that she had told them as well.

But they said that was fine, as long as the young lady could eat the food they prepared, they would feel very satisfied.

Huiying stood to the side, full of anticipation, and she also urged Yanyun, "Miss, let us do something for you too."

She personally served the dishes, and Yan Yun tasted them and found that their cooking skills were no less than those of the people in the restaurants.

Yan Yun responded with a smile, while Hui Ying smiled at the people hiding behind her.

Everyone felt relieved.

The little dumpling followed Yan Yun's lead and only started eating after she started using her chopsticks.

After eating it, they kept praising it, saying how delicious it was.

Qing'er told Yan Yun, "They will eat after they finish eating, so Miss doesn't need to worry."

Such peaceful days would be wonderful if they could continue indefinitely.

In the afternoon, someone from Zheng Courtyard came to deliver a message saying that the old lady had arrived at the residence. The old lady said that she had not seen her young lady for a long time and missed her very much, so she immediately sent someone to invite her over.

"The carriage is waiting outside. Please come with us back."

Although Yan Yun did not want to see the old lady's face.

However, since I haven't seen Ru Qing for a long time, I can go and see her. But once I get back, the peace I've enjoyed here will disappear again.

With the old lady's arrival, there will definitely be a lot of trouble in that courtyard. After all, just being in that courtyard makes people feel restless and uneasy.

Yan Yun had Qing'er tidy up.

Outside the academy, the servant who came to deliver the message did not tell Yan Yun that Lu Yan and Ru Qing had also come with them.

When Yan Yun came out of the academy and saw Ru Qing, his eyes lit up.

After all, it had been a long time since I'd seen her, and she seemed to have grown taller.

Lu Yan looked at Yan Yun, and although he didn't show too much enthusiasm on his face, he walked very fast and reached Yan Yun in a few steps.

"Cousin Ning'er, it's been a long time since we last met."

He stood in front of Yan Yun, and like Ru Qing, he was considerably taller.

Yan Yun stepped aside, creating some distance between them.

Lu Yan smiled, not minding at all, and started chatting casually, "I used to want to come to Yuanjing with you, but now we're so far apart. Now that we've finally met, is there anywhere you'd like to go? I'll take you around, how about that? After all, I'm quite familiar with Yuanjing."

Yan Yun listened to Lu Yan's words. Hearing the servant's anxious tone earlier, it seemed that he wasn't actually in such a hurry.

Ru Qing followed and walked over to Yan Yun's side. She no longer had the arrogance she had when she first met Yan Yun. Instead, she exuded a gentle feminine aura when she was with Lu Yan, and she was very obedient.

Yan Yun wasn't sure if it was just his imagination.

She wanted to tell Ru Qing that she had found his sister, but seeing that Ru Qing kept staring at Lu Yan, she suppressed her thoughts.

Lu Yan was still asking Yan Yun in a somewhat ingratiating manner.

A fast horse charged out from a distance.

Lu Yan immediately pulled Yan Yun aside to avoid the charging horse, fearing that it might injure Yan Yun.

"Lu Yan!"

With a powerful shout.

The rider stopped his horse in front of Yan Yun and the others. He looked down at Lu Yan and said directly, "Haven't seen you in so long? Don't you even recognize your second brother?"

Upon hearing this, Lu Yan immediately looked up at the person on horseback.

The person on horseback was Lu Yan's second elder brother, Lu Shan.

Lu Yan replied to his second brother with some delight, "Second brother."

Lu Shan looked at Yan Yun, somewhat displeased.

"You rascal? You came back and didn't even go back to the manor to see your grandmother first. Instead, you've been following this little girl around in circles."

Lu Yan felt a little embarrassed by what he said and hurriedly explained.

"I just happened to be passing by; after all, the academy is right next to the city gate."

Lu Shan ignored his explanation and wasn't teasing him; he simply wanted to take him back to his residence.

Lu Shan told Lu Yan with a serious expression.

"You have to come back to my residence with me now."

Lu Yan looked at the person beside him.

Yan Yun, however, did not care.

Seeing Lu Yan hesitate, Lu Shan told him with a gloomy expression.

“Lu Yan, this is your father’s decision.”

Lu Yan immediately understood that Yan Yun had something to say, so he could no longer stay with her.

"Yes, Second Brother, I'll go with you."

Ru Qing, who was standing to the side, wanted to leave with Lu Yan, but Lu Yan left her behind.

He looked at Yan Yun.

"I'll be right back. You should catch up with your cousin Ning'er first."

Lu Shan reached out his hand to Lu Yan and, with a little help, pulled Lu Yan onto the horse as well.

Lu Shan came and went like the wind.

He Yanyun didn't say a word, but Lu Yan waved his hand from behind.

Ru Qing stared at Lu Yan's back, looking at him pitifully.

Yan Yun knew Ru Qing's thoughts at a glance.

At that time, Ru Qing chose Lu Yan.

Now it seems that Ru Qing followed Lu Yan not just to learn how to do business.

But one must never be greedy in anything.

Yan Yun took out the note she always carried with her and placed it in Ru Qing's hand.

Ru Qing immediately lowered her head. Realizing her rudeness towards Yan Yun, she apologized, "I'm sorry for neglecting you, Miss. I was more worried because the young master is not well."

Yan Yun shook her head. She didn't ask about Lu Yan. She just pushed the paper in her hand toward Ru Qing.

This is the top priority.

Since Yan Yun was going back to Zheng Yuan, she naturally couldn't go to Nan Yun Jing's courtyard with Ru Qing.

In order to help Ru Qing see her sister, Yan Yun asked Xiao Tuanzi for help.

Nan Yunjing usually stays at Baima Academy, so there are usually not many people in that courtyard during the day.

Yan Yun only briefly wrote about Ru Qing and her sister's experiences to Xiao Tuanzi.

The separated sisters longed to reunite, and the older sister had been searching for her. Now that she knew her younger sister was in Nan Yunjing's courtyard, she asked for her help.

Although she had just been warned yesterday, the little dumpling felt sorry for Yan Yun after reading what he wrote.

Although she had no sisters, she still felt sad when she thought of her parents who were separated from her.

She promised Yan Yun that she would help Ru Qing reunite with her sister.

The little dumpling assured Yan Yun with great confidence, "Don't worry, sister, I will definitely help them."

Yan Yun let Ru Qing go with the little dumpling, while she went back to Zheng Courtyard, and the group split up.

Ru Qing also recovered from Lu Yan's departure, and she looked at Yan Yun with tears in her eyes.

Changgu City has only gotten to where it is today because of Yan Yun's help.

She was filled with emotion.

Yan Yun did not linger and boarded the carriage back to Zheng Yuan.

The little girl saw that her tears were still falling even after she wiped them away, and thought that she was worried about her younger sister. The little girl comforted her, "Brother Nan is a good person. He will let you see your sister."

"Thank you for your help, Miss."

Ru Qing followed the little dumpling to the South Courtyard.

Yan Yun followed the servants back to the courtyard.

The main hall wasn't too lively. Yan Yun and the old lady weren't close, but Zhu Mama, who had come along, looked at Yan Yun, who had grown quite a bit taller, and felt rather emotional.

"Miss has grown quite a bit taller."

Their words sounded very intimate, but Yan Yun knew perfectly well that beneath her feigned kind face lay a heart of stone.

Yan Yun turned her head and sat down to the side.

Because Zheng Jihua hasn't returned yet, the old lady is sitting in the superior position.

The concubine and the old nanny sat opposite.

The concubine looked at Yan Yun and smiled, "Ning'er."

The old lady also showed a rare tenderness, "Ning'er, come to your grandmother's side."

Yan Yun lowered his head and fiddled with the tea set beside him, completely ignoring her.

The old lady's outstretched hand missed its target. "Ning'er?"

She called out again.

Yan Yun placed the tea set down.

The old lady thought she had heard her and was about to come over.

Yan Yun put down the tea set and left.

Granny Zhu looked at the concubine.

The concubine could only get up.

"Ning'er, Grandmother is calling you, why aren't you responding?"

She walked towards Yan Yun, who immediately ran out. The concubine's expression froze, and she exclaimed urgently, "Zheng Ning'er!"

The old woman behind him, Granny Zhu, coughed.
