Chapter 22 -22: Does she regard me at all?

Madam Yan’s sudden change in addressing him turned Zhu Zhizhou’s face deathly pale.

Ordinarily, he would not have the courage to confront the likes of Young Master Yan and Mrs. Yan.

But if he did not step in now, he might lose his position as a father-in-law.

He quickly went to Mr. Yan and Mrs. Yan, “Mr. Yan, Mrs. Yan… about… the matter between Young Master Yan and Ying’er hasn’t been discussed yet…”

Before Young Master Yan had entered, Mr. Yan and Mrs. Yan were speaking quite pleasantly with him. But within ten minutes of the Young Master entering, the couple radically changed their attitude.

Madam Yan slightly lifted her head and smiled as she looked at him, “Mr. Zhu, how do you suggest we discuss this? We admit our mistake from yesterday, some things were delayed. But now that Miss Five is missing, could it be that Miss Five or you, Mr. Zhu, are unhappy with my son?”

The politeness and manners Madam Yan had shown before were what one would expect towards future kin.

Now, she had no hesitation in showing her disdain in front of this man who had utterly lost her favor.

“Mrs. Yan, it’s not like that…”

Zhu Zhizhou’s face reddened from anxiety. The Zhu family’s master, usually such a formidable figure, was entirely at a loss in front of Madam Yan.

Madam Yan waved her hand, indicating that he didn’t need to explain any further, “That’s enough, let it end here. As for what comes next, I won’t interfere. My son can handle it as he pleases.”

After finishing, Madam Yan, arm in arm with Mr. Yan, left the Zhu residence.

As for Young Master Yan, he left in a huff and got into the car. Although the driver found this odd, he didn’t dare to ask any further, “Master, are we heading home?”

“Mmm!”

On the road, Young Master Yan felt more and more agitated.

At that moment, he was not just angry with Zhu Zhizhou but also with Zhu Qianying.

Didn’t he clearly tell her to stay at home and wait for his call? Yet, not even a night had passed, and she had already vanished.

Plus, she left without a word.

Did that girl regret her decision?

At this thought, Young Master Yan’s face suddenly darkened.

In his whole life, even when dealing with his parents, he was always the one regretting things.

But now, this girl, Zhu Qianying, had so openly scorned him. Was it because she didn’t consider him at all?

After that scene at the Zhu house, he was at a loss for where to put his face.

The angrier he became, the more Young Master Yan felt an indignant fire burning inside him.

Pulling out his phone with plans to trace Zhu Qianying’s movements, he hadn’t yet managed to unlock it when the phrases Zhu Qianying had said after they had climbed out of the canyon flashed in his mind.

“Anyway, I don’t care! Right now, I am your wife.”

“A real man, if he has the guts to choose, then he must have the guts to marry!”

“That’s right! You are indeed obliged to marry me!”

“Reason? You chose a wife, and I participated in the selection. Now, the results are clear as day. It was a matter of mutual consent. Why are reasons necessary?”

“Hmm, of course! You being so handsome, I couldn’t wait to marry you!”

…

No! Something’s not right!

From what she said, she didn’t seem unwilling to marry him at all!

What made her silently leave then?

Or, was her departure due to a pressing situation? Perhaps, was she forced by those aunts of hers?

Young Master Yan was deep in thought, leaning against the chair, when his phone slightly vibrated.

After unlocking the phone, he discovered a single unread message from a seemingly familiar number.

And the time it was received was at six in the morning?

Young Master Yan, confused, opened the message.

“Young Master Yan, I’m sorry. I have something urgent to attend to and must leave for about ten to fifteen days. Please apologize to Mr. Yan and Madam Yan for me. I have sent the gifts intended for them to your place through express delivery. They should receive them today! By Zhu Qianying.”

Young Master Yan, who had little patience for reading and rarely sent any text messages, for once read a message completely. In his heart, he unconsciously heaved a sigh of relief.

Although he was still angry at the girl’s sudden departure, his current anger was nothing like the resentment he felt earlier.

Half an hour later, Young Master Yan and the two elder Yans returned home, one after another.

Upon entering, Young Master Yan immediately asked the man who came forward to take their coats, “Uncle Hai, have we received any express delivery today?”

Interestingly, both Young Master Yan and the Yan Family seldom received any express deliveries.

Firstly, being a family of three, the Yans had all their needs – be it for food, clothing, or daily use – custom-tailored and limited edition. Products from certain treasured places couldn’t even catch the eyes of Young Master Yan and the two elders, let alone Uncle Hai’s.

Secondly, if someone truly wanted to send a gift, they would personally bring the gift to the Yan family as a sign of respect and sincerity. Who would ever send it through a delivery service?

“Young Master, there was indeed a small box delivered by express delivery this afternoon. I thought it was delivered to the wrong address, so I casually threw it in the storeroom!”

Being from a family like the Yans, those unknown gifts couldn’t even attract Uncle Hai’s interest. So, his response was natural.

He didn’t realize that he almost threw away the gift sent by his future young mistress to Mr. and Mrs. Yan.

“Hmm, have someone bring that package out.”

Young Master Yan turned around and took Mrs. Yan’s other arm. The three family members entered the living room together.

The servants had already served tea. Mrs. Yan took the tea, but her gaze was carefully studying her son’s face.

Young Master Yan naturally understood his mother’s thoughts, so he took out his phone and handed it over to her.

“Zhu Qianying, that girl, sent me a message when she left. I didn’t notice it!”

Half believing, half doubting, Mrs. Yan accepted the mobile and reviewed the message content and its delivery time, clearly marked as six o’clock in the morning.

“So, this matter can’t be blamed on her? Was it your negligence?”

Young Master Yan wasn’t about to admit that it was his negligence, “How can we not blame her? I made it clear to her that I told her to stay home and wait for me to propose. Going away without a word for a period is what, then? Does she even regard me at all?”

Mrs. Yan knocked on his head, “My son, you need to change this temperament! Otherwise, who could stand you?”

Though Mrs. Yan hadn’t met Zhu Qianying yet, she was aware that any woman who could pass her son’s meticulously harsh selection must be quite remarkable.

Supplementing what she gathered from the earlier encounter at the Zhu residence, Mrs. Yan already carried a feeling of liking and sympathy towards Zhu Qianying, whom she hadn’t met yet.

“Whether they can stand it or not, they’ll have to!” Young Master Yan confidently replied.

Mrs. Yan was about to say something else when Uncle Hai ran in holding a small box.

“Mr. and Mrs. Yan, forgive my failing eyesight for not seeing clearly that this was sent here by Miss Five from the Zhu family.”

Mrs. Yan took the box and glanced at it. Indeed, atop the express delivery note, in the recipient column, it clearly read, “Mr. Yan and Mrs. Yan to open”.

And the sender was marked as “Zhu Qianying”.
