Chapter 166 - 099 My Love Torrential Waters_5
Yun Ya grabbed a piece of toast, spread some caviar on it, and paired it with a glass of milk.
As she was eating, several people couldn’t help but look over.
The young girl’s movements while eating were very graceful, as if she were not dining but paying homage, radiating a holy atmosphere reminiscent of the morning sun.
Kang Jinxian felt as if she were sitting on pins and needles, wishing she could find a crack in the ground to crawl into.
Yun Ya gently put down the milk glass, picked up a napkin to wipe her mouth, and smiled faintly, "I’m full, please enjoy your meal."
Having said that, she reached out to ruffle Bai Xi’s adorable little head and stood up to leave the dining room.
Yun Shu’s gaze at her retreating back was so resentful she seemed to want to gouge out a piece of flesh.
After some thought, she calmed down.
At this moment, Uncle Feng brought today’s newspaper; reading the newspaper during meals had always been Yun Shu’s habit, and Yun Shen had inherited this from her.
Opening today’s Jiangzhou Morning Post, the front-page headline was bold and enlarged—Stunning Return, Continuing the Legend of the Leading Socialite!
It was actually a report about Ji Yunya; "leading socialite," did she even deserve that?
The instant Yun Shu saw this piece of news, she tore the newspaper to shreds.
Kang Jinxian caught a glimpse of the words "leading socialite," her heart skipped a beat, and with a sense of unwilling defeat, her gaze fell.
She had worked hard for decades, only to earn a reputation for being obedient and filial. And Ji Yunya, what about her? She did nothing and was crowned the leading socialite; Jinxian couldn’t accept it...
Kang Jinse snorted, "These reporters really know how to write nonsense, ’leading socialite’ indeed, she’s just a little girl, and not one to be easily crushed."
She felt a surge of envy in her heart. Back in the day, Ji Lanyi was the renowned leading socialite, whose presence made other women feel ashamed. Had it not been for having Ji Lanyi as her mother, Ji Yunya wouldn’t have had a chance at this title for eight hundred years.
She was just picking up her mother’s smarts.
Bai Ran watched the unpredictable expressions on everyone’s faces and a hint of mockery flickered in his eyes.
People just never recognize their own place, he thought. They’re clearly wild chickens yet aspire to be phoenixes; the result is a harder fall.
Today was Monday. After breakfast, Kang Jinxian went to school, Kang Jinse had a film to shoot, Yun Shen went to the company, Bai Ran took his son to school, and only Yun Shu and Yun Ya were left at home.
After changing her clothes, Yun Ya came downstairs, "Grandma, it’s good for you to go out and about when you have the time. At your age, it’s beneficial for your bones and cervical spine, and it can also prevent senile dementia."
Yun Shu scoffed coldly, eyeing the young girl dressed in denim overalls and a yellow wool cardigan, looking exceptionally innocent and beautiful with her backpack, "Don’t bother yourself about me, you’d better take care of yourself."
Yun Ya simply smiled and made no response.
Watching Yun Ya disappear out the door, Yun Shu’s eyes flashed with a cold light as she pulled out her phone and dialed a number.
"Hello... is this the Wu Zaisi Detective Agency?"
"Good day... I would like to ask for your assistance in investigating someone...."
——
Yun Ya first made a round at the hospital, then directly knocked on the director’s office door. The director looked up, startled for a moment because Yun Ya was dressed too young today, which was a stark contrast from her elegance the other day; he hadn’t recognized her at first glance.
"Miss Ji, I apologize for not greeting you at a distance," said Su Zhiyuan, hurrying to invite her to sit down and personally making tea.
Yun Ya smiled, "Director Su, there’s no need for formality; I hope you can forgive the shortcomings of last night’s reception."
Su Zhiyuan quickly waved his hand, "Miss Ji, to have achieved so much at such a young age compels me to marvel. Indeed, we see the new waves of the Yangtze River pushing forward those of old."
Yun Ya smiled faintly.
Su Zhiyuan looked at the girl sitting before him. Her outfit today made her seem very young, at most fourteen or fifteen, her beautiful face radiant with youthful vitality.
"The timing has been arranged for you, two days a week of office hours. You can set it up according to your schedule, how does that sound?"
This was a very generous condition indeed.
Yun Ya nodded lightly, "Good."
"The office is also ready for you; do you want to go and take a look at it now?" Su Zhiyuan inquired.
"That sounds good, let’s go now," she agreed.
As the two were about to stand up, a tall man pushed the door open and entered. He was holding a set of documents in his hand and, upon seeing Yun Ya, he paused slightly and then nodded lightly.
"Director, here is the information you requested for patient seventy-eight," he said.
Su Zhiyuan reached out to take it and, as if remembering something, said to the man, "Old Pei, do you have anything else later?"
Pei Jinghong glanced at the young girl without betraying any emotion and shook his head.
Su Zhiyuan smiled, "That’s perfect, I have some things to take care of. You can take Miss Ji to see her new office and get familiar with the hospital and department surroundings."
