Chapter 81: The Owner of the Clubhouse
At the same time, at the back door of Elegant Bamboo Clubhouse.
A motorcycle roared and flew out. There were two people on the motorcycle. It was Yan Jinyu and Huo Siyu.
It was still Huo Siyu on the motorcycle, and Yan Jinyu sat in the back seat.
Yan Jinyu held her smartphone in her right hand, her thumb tapping rapidly on the screen. If one looked closely, they would realize that she was attacking a certain surveillance camera.
“Beauty Yu, is it done?”
Yan Jinyu pressed her finger, and the phone screen darkened. She spun the phone in her hand. “Done.”
Huo Siyu heaved a sigh of relief. “Fortunately, I asked you to come with me tonight. If I came alone, I wouldn’t have been able to slip away from Second Young Master Yin and destroy the surveillance cameras at the clubhouse within this time.”
“I received news that the Third Young Master of the Min Family just arrived in North City today. Not long after he arrived, he booked a private room at Elegant Bamboo. It seems like he wants to meet someone. I wanted to bring you over to watch the show and see what kind of person Third Young Master Min is exactly and who he is meeting in North City? I didn’t expect him to meet Second Young Master Yin.”
“If I had known that he was meeting Second Young Master Yin, I wouldn’t have brought you to watch the show so carelessly without any preparation!”
“However, I can only say that he is indeed the famous Master Nine. His alertness is so strong that he could actually sense us even though we were separated by a wall and the both of us had deliberately lowered our breathing in the private room!” Huo Siyu felt that if it were her, she would definitely not be able to detect that someone was eavesdropping when there was nothing wrong with the soundproof wall.
“He even used a smoke screen and said he was leaving first. I thought he would leave immediately, so I let my guard down. I didn’t expect him to come over immediately after leaving the room. Fortunately, that waiter held him back for a few seconds and both of us are not weak. Otherwise…”
“The force he used to push the door was huge. He almost squeezed me to death. My back hit the wall hard and it is still hurting.”
“I didn’t expect Third Young Master Min to be on good terms with Second Young Master Yin. I’ve been in the capital for almost a year and heard a lot of rumors about this Third Young Master of the Min Family. Every time someone mentions him, they say that he’s a hedonistic son who doesn’t do his job properly. Now, looking at it… Ha, if he’s really a hedonistic son, how could he possibly be on good terms with the famous Master Nine? Even more so, he had investigated so thoroughly about the information that my brother had blocked on the first day he came to North City…”
Huo Siyu paused. “Beauty Yu, my brother…”
“It’s nothing important. I won’t take it to heart.” Actually, Yan Jinyu had a rough guess ever since she had sensed Huo Xuan’s presence at the underground racing track that day and her performance at the racing track hadn’t been publicly spread in North City.
Hearing her words, Huo Siyu heaved a sigh of relief. “It’s good that you don’t take it to heart. My brother’s response… shouldn’t have any ill intentions.” She did not sound confident in her words. She could not imagine what her brother’s intentions were even if he really did not have any ill intentions.
Could he be helping Beauty Yu?
Not necessarily. Her brother was not the kind of person who would waste his effort to help a stranger.
“Little Rain, I really didn’t take it to heart. You don’t have to pay too much attention to it either. Speaking of which, I still have to thank your brother. What he did, saved me a lot of trouble.” Although she dared to do that the other day and was not afraid that the matter would spread and others would find out that she was actually very different from the rumors, it was still troublesome. It was naturally best to minimize trouble.
Huo Xuan had indeed helped her by preventing the news from spreading.
Putting others aside, if her parents knew that she had such driving skills and even defeated the daughter of a “big family” in the capital on the racing track and seriously injured her, she would not have been able to live so peacefully during this period of time.
“Beauty Yu, did Second Young Master Yin see the video of your race? Could it be…” Huo Siyu suddenly thought of something and her lips twitched.” Perhaps I was really worrying for nothing. “She hadn’t forgotten Yin Jiujin’s expression after seeing the surveillance video. Although he was a little surprised, he didn’t have any anger after being deceived.
Of course, Yin Jiujin’s expression was unfathomable. She was unable to guess exactly what he thought of this matter. However, she was certain that Yin Jiujin didn’t have any prejudice against Beauty Yu because of this.
He kept saying “my girl”. Tsk tsk.
Actually, the reason why Huo Siyu was so assured wasn’t because of Yin Jiujin’s reaction after he saw the surveillance video. It was because Yan Jinyu had said that she didn’t mind Yin Jiujin discovering her identity.
When Yan Jinyu heard that, she didn’t say anything and only smiled slightly.
She recalled Yin Jiujin’s words, “my girl.”
However, she was indeed surprised by Yin Jiujin’s vigilance.
If it wasn’t Huo Siyu and her who had practiced holding their breaths, in the private room, they would have been discovered long ago.
They had only been able to escape Yin Jiujin because of luck.
If Yin Jiujin had taken another step forward or raised his head…
She wasn’t worried that Yin Jiujin would discover her identity initially, but under the circumstances, she inexplicably became nervous.
Yes. Nervous.
She had not felt nervous for many years.
Most importantly, she still did not understand what she was nervous about.
“The clubhouse belongs to Feng?” The private room beside the private room that the Third Young Master of the Min Family usually went to, was tampered. Since Huo Siyu could receive the news that Min Ting had booked a private room immediately, Yan Jinyu knew that the private room must belong to one of them.
As for who it belonged to, she was not sure yet.
However, she did not think that they had specially prepared such a huge clubhouse in North City just to keep an eye on Min Ting.
“It’s not wrong to say that it’s Brother Feng’s, but Beauty Yu, you know that Brother Feng prefers to study difficult diseases compared to running a club so Sister Fengling is in charge of clubs and bars.”
“Don’t worry. Sister Fengling has always been careful. Even if Second Young Master Yin were to take action, he might not be able to find out anything about her. Even if he could find out, Sister Fengling had a reputation in the capital too. In order to help Brother Feng seize the power of the Min Family, Sister Fengling has been dealing with many people from the families in the capital all these years. It’s not surprising that Sister Fengling has a club in North City and is also” observing “the Third Young Master of the Min Family at her own club.”
“Mm-hmm.” After a pause, she said, “This clubhouse opened five years ago. At that time, Min Ting’s business had yet to enter North City.” As she spoke, Yan Jinyu lowered her eyes, making it difficult for others to see the emotions in her eyes.
Huo Siyu’s heart skipped a beat, and she quickly laughed. “Beauty Yu is indeed worthy of your reputation. You’ve only been in North City for two months and you have already found out when a small clubhouse opened.”
“Little Rain.”
Her voice was flat, but Huo Siyu couldn’t hear any doubts in it.
Sometimes, she really feared Beauty Yu, even though she had never been angry with her before.
Taking a deep breath, she said, “Beauty Yu, as you know, Sister Fengling likes to operate these things. Other than the capital, her bar has chains in many cities…”
“Little Rain.”
“…Alright, alright. Beauty Yu, I’m afraid of you. But since you mentioned this, you must have guessed it.”
“That’s right. Elegant Bamboo was built in North City on purpose back then. We thought that if you returned in the future, you would not be isolated and helpless in North City. Although the people in Elegant Bamboo are not very capable, they can definitely help you resolve a few trivial matters like finding information in North City or resolve one or two insignificant obstacles. Even if they can’t help you much, you can still go there when you’re in a bad mood or want to find a quiet place to sit.”
Yan Jinyu pursed her lips and didn’t say a word.
Huo Siyu sighed. “Sigh. We were afraid that you would overthink, so we kept it from you.”
“Although it was why Elegant Bamboo was opened in the beginning, you haven’t used it since you returned to North City. Besides, Elegant Bamboo has earned a lot of money over the years. In addition, she can help Brother Feng find out more about the Third Young Master of the Min Family. You only have a title…”
Huo Siyu was still nervous after speaking when she suddenly heard Yan Jinyu say, “Send me the contact details of the person in charge.”
Huo Siyu was delighted and no longer felt nervous. She quickly said, “Alright, I’ll send it to you directly later.”
They were family. Most of the time, they wouldn’t hesitate to ask one another for help. If they needed help, they would ask Beauty Yu for help. However, Beauty Yu…
Even though Beauty Yu wouldn’t hide anything from them, she usually wouldn’t tell them anything that she could settle alone.
They planned to set up a clubhouse in North City because they knew the Yan Family’s attitude towards Beauty Yu. Although Beauty Yu had no intention of returning to the Yan Family, they still wanted to have a plan b.
Hence, there was the Elegant Bamboo.
Although she said that Sister Feng Ling was in charge, it was actually the three of them who had invested in it together.
They were thinking that if Beauty Yu wanted to come back one day and the Yan Family did not treat her well, at least Beauty Yu would have a place to go in North City, and have someone to order around.
They didn’t expect that Beauty Yu had indeed returned to the Yan family, but it was Yin Jiujin who had brought her back.
With Yin Jiujin around, she had no use for them. Even if the Yan Family didn’t like Beauty Yu, she would have a place to go to in North City.
Beauty Yu was like that. Although she tried her best not to look for them for help if she could resolve the matter, she would still accept their kind intentions. She was afraid that they would be sad.
Just like now, Beauty Yu did not say anything unnecessary. Instead, she simply asked for Elegant Bamboo’s contact information.
Beauty Yu looked indifferent and always looked like she did not care about anything, but they all knew that she was actually very soft-hearted.
The motorcycle headed straight for the Yan Family.
***
The Elegant Bamboo Clubhouse, outside Room 315.
As he looked at the collapsed wall and then at the empty private room, Yin Jiujin’s eyes became obscure and his expression was as cold as ever. It was impossible to tell if he was happy or angry.
“What happened?” Min Ting frowned and asked the waiter beside him as he stepped into the private room.
“I’m sorry for disturbing Master Nine and Third Young Master Min. Perhaps the renovation company that we hired back then cut corners, so… it’s very dusty inside. Third Young Master Min, don’t go in first.”
Min Ting stopped and looked at the person.
He knew this person.
Zhao Kun was 30 years old. He was tall and had a scar at the corner of his eye. He looked a little fierce, but he was a smiling tiger. He was the “boss” of Elegant Bamboo Clubhouse.
Although he was smiling like a tiger now, his attitude was not light at all. Instead, there was a hint of respect.
Not towards Min Ting, but towards Yin Jiujin.
No matter who Zhao Kun worked for, he was still very afraid of Yin Jiujin. Especially since this was North City, Yin Jiujin’s territory.
Zhao Kun turned to Yin Jiujin. “Master Nine, nice to meet you. I’m Zhao Kun, the boss of this clubhouse.”
Yin Jiujin swept his gaze over with an ambiguous gaze that made Zhao Kun’s heart pound.
