In the end, Xu Gui obviously couldn’t go with Yan Jinyu and the rest. He followed the person with complicated emotions to look at Xu Xiaoxiao.

Xu Gui felt even more complicated when he saw Xu Xiaoxiao, who had fainted with a big wound on her head.

To be honest, Xu Gui wanted to laugh when he saw Xu Xiaoxiao. However, he held back as he remembered that she was his cousin and it seemed a little unkind to mock her when she had fallen down the stone stairs.

He personally sent Xu Xiaoxiao to the hospital and called his second uncle, who was also Xu Xiaoxiao’s father. He even specially emphasized that Xu Xiaoxiao fell down because she was careless while walking down the stone stairs. He did not want to be reprimanded for something that had nothing to do with him.

“What are you guys doing here?!”

Yan Jinyu and the rest headed straight for the big bend where the accident happened. Of course, they didn’t walk over. Instead, they called the attendant in the underground racing arena to drive them over.

Qiu Jian and Zhao Yue had already been rescued by professionals from the deformed car and placed on a stretcher when they arrived at the accident scene.

Both of them were seriously injured. Their limbs, bodies and heads were covered in blood. Although they could still barely maintain their consciousness and speak, they were clearly seriously injured. Hence, when Luo Yikun saw Yan Jinyu, the “culprit”, walk over, he naturally spoke in a bad tone as he might be implicated.

He was stunned as soon as he said that.

Seeing Yan Jinyu walking over, biting with a packet of yogurt in her teeth and one hand in her pocket, Luo Yikun’s eyes had an evil glint.

Yan Jinyu, who sensed his gaze, stopped smiling slightly. With a hint of coldness in her eyes, she said, “Just continue if you don’t want those eyes anymore.”

The current situation was the two injured people kept shouting and cursing. It was already noisy, so when Yan Jinyu and the others appeared, they finally quieted down slightly but they were still scolding. Only when Yan Jinyu spoke up did they stop their scolding unconsciously.

It was unknown if that was because they realized that it was Yan Jinyu—who had caused them to be seriously injured—saying that and they were furious with her, or because they were frightened by the inexplicable coldness in Yan Jinyu’s words.

It was not clear if the others were frightened, but Luo Yikun certainly was.

Because at that instant, he was looking at Yan Jinyu. Or rather, he was looking directly into Yan Jinyu’s eyes. He could feel how cold Yan Jinyu’s gaze was when she said those words.

His hands and feet were cold.

No, rather than saying that her eyes were cold, he should have said that they were filled with killing intent.

However, could a young girl who wasn’t even 18 years old, have killing intent? Moreover, this person was Yan Jinyu, who had led a wandering life for many years.

At the thought of that, Luo Yikun became suspicious again.

However, no matter how suspicious he was, he didn’t dare to use that disgusting gaze to size Yan Jinyu up again.

“Eldest Miss Yan has really exceeded my expectations.” It was unknown if he was hinting that Yan Jinyu had injured Qiu Jian and Zhao Yue, or if he was hinting that Yan Jinyu’s words and gaze were enough to frighten him.

“Eldest Miss Yan, are you here to watch the show?”

Just as Luo Yikun finished asking, a scream came from the crowd, “Yan Jinyu, I’m going to kill you!” It was Qiu Jian, who was lying on the stretcher with her face stained with blood. She seemed to have difficulty speaking. She gritted her teeth and looked like she wanted to eat Yan Jinyu up.

Yan Jinyu stepped forward, and the people surrounding Qiu Jian consciously made way for her. They didn’t understand why they were so afraid of her.

Standing about five steps away from the stretcher, Yan Jinyu looked down at Qiu Jian and chuckled, “Judging from Miss Qiu’s tone, could it be that you’re a sore loser?”

She looked at Luo Yikun, “Watching the show? I don’t have the leisure to do that. I’m here to take my spoils of war. This is the Second Young Master Luo’s event. Surely Second Young Master Luo wouldn’t be more ignorant than me, a person who came to such a place for the first time?”

“I wonder if my spoils of war are from Second Young Master Luo or Miss Qiu?”

“You still dare to ask for the spoils of war! Yan Jinyu, what you should be worried about now is your life! Your life will end since you dare to hurt me!”

Yan Jinyu slowly turned her gaze to the angry Qiu Jian and smiled, “So, Miss Qiu is really a sore loser?”

There were so many people around her. If Qiu Jian admitted that she was a sore loser, she would be too ashamed to face anyone in the future. Hence, she retorted angrily, “Who said that I am a sore loser!”

Yan Jinyu chuckled. “Since Miss Qiu isn’t a sore loser, hand over the spoils of war then. Oh, this car belongs to Second Young Master Luo. Moreover, since you’ve already crashed it, I think Miss Qiu won’t be able to use it as a trophy for me anymore. Since that’s the case, just give me the money directly.”

She turned around and asked Feng Yuan, who had just come over, “Cousin is more knowledgeable. How much is Second Young Master Luo’s car worth?”

Feng Yuan: “…Roughly estimated to be about 18 million.” Of course, the car was not worth that much, but Luo Yikun had spent a lot of money on its modifications.

There was a gasp.

Obviously, many people present did not know how much the car was worth.

Most of the people who appeared here were the descendants of the North City’s influential families. However, not every one of them could fork out tens of millions. After all, everyone was rather young and had to rely on their families to survive. Hence, 18 million might not be considered much to a few people present, but to most of the people present, it was not a small sum.

Even Luo Yikun felt his heart ache as he stared at the wreckage after he heard Feng Yuan’s words.

“18 million. It’s quite valuable.” Yan Jinyu looked like she didn’t know how much 18 million was. Her expression was normal and didn’t reveal any surprise.

This made many people present feel very strange.

If she really had not seen much of the world, was it reasonable for her to be so calm after hearing that it cost so much money?

However, regardless of whether she was really inexperienced or not, after today’s shocking race, they no longer dared to underestimate Yan Jinyu.

“Miss Qiu, did you hear that? 18 million dollars. Don’t forget to transfer it to my account today. As for the account number, I’ll send it to you later.”

“18 million, how dare you really ask for it!” Hearing Feng Yuan say 18 million, Qiu Jian was shocked.

It was true that she was the eldest daughter of the Qiu Family, but her pocket money was only a few millions at most. She had almost never spent more than 10 million dollars. Taking a step back, even if she had so much pocket money, her family would definitely not allow her to waste it like this.

If her family found out about this, she would be finished!

Perhaps she was too shocked and worried, Qiu Jian didn’t notice that Yan Jinyu said that she would send her account number directly to her phone. After all, Yan Jinyu didn’t have her phone number.

“Why wouldn’t I dare to take my spoils of war? Miss Qiu, don’t forget to transfer the money by today, okay. If I don’t see the money today, don’t blame me for going straight to the Qiu Family to ask for it. Although I’ve never heard of the Qiu Family and don’t know what kind of family the Qiu Family is, seeing that Miss Qiu has such a sense of superiority, I think the Qiu Family should have some status in the capital. If I go directly to the Qiu Family and ask for the money that Miss Qiu lost, the Qiu Family’s reputation will probably be damaged. I believe that this isn’t what Miss Qiu wants to see.”

“You, you, you, ptui…” Qiu Jian vomited blood straight away.

Due to anger.

Qiu Jian wasn’t stupid. She knew that Yan Jinyu was right. If Yan Jinyu really went to the Qiu Family to ask for this sum of money, regardless of whether she could get it in the end, the Qiu Family would definitely lose face.

She wasn’t going to let Yan Jinyu off, but there were so many people present now. If she didn’t acknowledge the money she had lost, even if Yan Jinyu didn’t go to look for the Qiu Family, the Qiu Family’s reputation would be damaged too.

“Good! Very good! Yan Jinyu, I’ll remember this! I hope you can still live to spend the money!”

Yan Jinyu smiled, “This is not something Miss Qiu should be concerned about. As long as you don’t forget to transfer the money to my account, Miss Qiu.”

She flicked a glance over, “Oh, Miss Qiu, you seem to be seriously injured. I’m sorry. I didn’t know that Miss Qiu’s driving skills were so bad. If I had known earlier, I would have given in to Miss Qiu. I wouldn’t have let Miss Qiu lose so badly.”

“You!”

“Miss Qiu, don’t be agitated. I think you vomited blood just now. Don’t get so agitated that you can’t breathe. Then, my sins will be huge.”

Their surroundings were silent.

How did Yan Jinyu manage to smile and say such words with a harmless expression?

They had to be really stupid if they still felt that Yan Jinyu was as innocent and harmless as she looked on the surface.

Yan Jinyu didn’t care how others looked at her. Her gaze turned to Zhao Yue, who was still conscious on the other stretcher but didn’t dare to scold anymore. She still had a faint smile on her face, “And this Miss Zhao seems to be seriously injured too. Despite knowing that racing is dangerous, Miss Zhao still kept persuading me to stay and play. Great, I’m afraid that Miss Zhao had to stay in the hospital for a year or so now. Miss Zhao, tell me, why did you have to do that?”

“Y-you, I-I…” Zhao Yue was extremely angry, but she was so severely injured that she couldn’t say a complete sentence. She could only glare at Yan Jinyu angrily.

Yan Jinyu remained unmoved, but she removed the faint smile on her face and let out a low “tsk.”

It was precisely this sound that made many people’s hearts involuntarily race.

Yan Jinyun didn’t say anything and just looked at Yan Jinyu when Yan Jinyun saw this.

She had seen Yan Jinyu like this before. In the dark alley that was surrounded by people when Yan Jinyu raised her dagger and slashed down.

A heretical and cold killing intent seeped out from the depth of her bones.
