82: Chapter 82: Fallen Out of Favor?

Inside the room, Yan Qianyi heard the noise and let go of Han Yarong and Yan Ruyi.

The mother and daughter immediately wanted to take the opportunity to fight back.

But then, they heard the approaching voice of Aunt Xue, “Master, you’re finally back.

Mrs.

Han and Miss Ruyi are bullying the young lady.

I didn’t dare to help!”

Han Yarong was about to grab Yan Qianyi’s hair, but was stopped by Yan Ruyi.

A wicked smile flashed across Yan Qianyi’s eyes.

She sat down on the spot, pushing her hair into disarray, and turned to look at the doorway.

The next moment, Yan Hong appeared at the door.

“Stop it, all of you, what are you doing?!”

Han Yarong quickly got up from the ground and complained in a pitiful tone, “Husband, Qianyi hit me.”

Yan Qianyi sat on the ground with her head down, silent.

“Mrs.

Han, I clearly saw that it was you and Miss Ruyi hitting our young lady.

How could she possibly stand a chance against the two of you!”

After saying this, Aunt Xue hurried to Yan Qianyi’s side, “Young lady, are you alright?

Please don’t scare me!”

Yan Qianyi lifted her head and winked at Aunt Xue.

Her messy hair concealed her delicate little face, which only Aunt Xue could see clearly, along with her playful gaze.

“Oh my poor young lady, stop crying…”

Aunt Xue quickly hugged Yan Qianyi into her arms, gently patting her back to comfort her, “It’s alright, it’s alright.

The master is back; he will stand up for you.”

Aunt Xue had reacted quickly upon seeing the situation in the room and knew just how to cooperate with Yan Qianyi.

She had accompanied Yan Qianyi as she grew up and could be said to understand her better than anyone.

Having observed her for the past few days, she had long realized that the young lady was merely pretending to be weak.

However, the young lady had always been wild from childhood, often getting into fights at school.

But she still never expected the young lady to be able to beat those two by herself!

Han Yarong hurriedly shook her head, “No…

Husband, she was really fierce just now.

Ruyi and I couldn’t overpower her…”

Slap——!

A sharp slap cut across Han Yarong’s words.

Han Yarong covered her face, mute as if having swallowed bitter bile, unable to voice her grievances.

Yan Ruyi was about to make an explanation, but seeing her mother slapped, she became too frightened to speak.

Yan Hong was furious, “Han Yarong!

You really are a vicious stepmother!

I’m not blind; I can clearly see who is bullying whom!”

Han Yarong and Yan Ruyi were neatly dressed, their hair in order.

Whereas Yan Qianyi’s hair was in a complete mess.

Didn’t this say it all?

Yan Qianyi, buried in Aunt Xue’s embrace, curved her lips into a smile.

When she had acted earlier, she had been careful not to cause visible injuries to the mother and daughter.

To avoid exposing too much, she hadn’t used any martial arts, just cleverly overpowering them with skill.

Yan Hong came over, tenderly straightening Yan Qianyi’s messy hair to check, “Darling, is your face hurt?”

Yan Qianyi shook her head.

Yan Hong breathed a sigh of relief, “That’s good.

Tomorrow night, you’ll accompany daddy to a dinner party.”

At this, Yan Ruyi dumbly opened her mouth.

In the past two years, when dad attended dinner parties, he always brought her along to introduce her to society’s elites.

Had she fallen from favor so quickly?

“Husband…”

Han Yarong panicked as well, unwilling to be so easily framed by Yan Qianyi.

“Ruyi and I really didn’t bully her.

She came back from the exam and lashed out.

She must have done poorly, so she vented all her anger on us.

It really was her who started it…”

Yan Hong was dark-faced and silent.

He did not care at all now about who started it or who was in the wrong.

All he knew was that he had to appease Qianyi now so she would accompany him to the dinner party tomorrow.

Because tomorrow’s party simply could not go on without her.

At that moment, the Federation Military Academy called.
