Chapter 251: Chapter 251: Is It Just to Mock Me?

Having said that, Wang Shanshan turned back and glanced at Yun Mu’s departing figure.

Although she really disliked Yan Qianyi,

she was someone who knew the importance of timing.

At that moment, she regretted her actions—if she had known Yun Mu would become friends with Yan Qianyi, she wouldn’t have offended Yan Qianyi in the first place.

Now she couldn’t even get close to Yun Mu, let alone have a chance to talk to him.

Yan Ruyi also followed Wang Shanshan’s gaze and glanced at Yun Mu.

She knew that now many people in the school wanted to curry favor with Yan Qianyi.

Even Wang Shanshan was no exception.

Changing with the wind, she had no dignity at all!

Yan Ruyi chuckled, "Shanshan, don’t worry. After all, Qianyi and I have a foundation of many years of friendship, and in the end, we are born of the same father, with the same blood running through our veins. Reconciliation is just a matter of time. I can’t outplay her in cunning, but if she wants to get a share of my father’s inheritance in the future, she’ll have to come back and cozy up to us."

Wang Shanshan curled her lip, unable to stand Yan Ruyi’s overly radiant complexion when given a bit of sunlight.

She urged, "Good luck then, go ahead."

Yan Ruyi stood up to leave, and Wang Shanshan snickered as she watched her go.

"After all, she’s an illegitimate child who can’t make it to the big stage, far behind when compared to a legitimate daughter with all the rights."

Wang Shanshan looked down on Yan Ruyi from the bottom of her heart.

At least when the Yan Family was glorious, she had once thought highly of Yan Qianyi.

But as for Yan Ruyi, the daughter of a mistress, she was nothing more than a minor follower in the circle of young socialites.

Back in the girls’ dormitory, Yan Chuhua said to Yan Qianyi, "Qianyi, you really have to tell me now what questions to ask her later. My ’ability’ can only do hypnosis for forty seconds at most. If it gets interrupted halfway, and she doesn’t look into my eyes again, I won’t be able to hypnotize her."

Worried that Yan Chuhua would forget, Yan Qianyi picked up a pen from the desk, wrote down the questions, and handed them to Yan Chuhua.

Yan Chuhua glanced at it, her eyes widening in shock, looking at Yan Qianyi with a heart full of pity, nearly bursting into tears, "Qianyi, how could they... how could they treat you like that, it’s so terrible..."

At that moment, Yan Ruyi arrived, and Yan Chuhua quickly tucked the note into her military uniform pocket.

"Qianyi," Yan Ruyi called from the doorway, sounding somewhat restrained.

Having never been treated so kindly by Yan Qianyi, who now said she wanted to have a good chat with her, she was somewhat uncomfortable.

"Come in and sit down," said Yan Qianyi, her face breaking into a smile.

Getting Yan Ruyi to lower her guard would help Chu Hua with the hypnosis,

Yan Ruyi entered and sat down, looking around the room, "It’s quite comfortable for just the two of you living here."

"It is quite comfortable," Yan Qianyi responded, sitting down opposite Yan Ruyi with a gentle expression, "Back in high school, we talked about going to the same university and sharing a dorm room, do you remember?"

"Of course, I remember," Yan Ruyi nodded slightly, smiling faintly.

Yan Qianyi was suddenly so affable, and she was pleasantly surprised.

But she wasn’t foolish, and she probed, "Qianyi, how is... how is grandma doing?"

Yan Qianyi replied, "There’s no improvement. I’m trying my best."

Yan Ruyi then inquired, "Then have you found out the reason why grandma suddenly fell ill?"

Yan Qianyi sighed, "No, not yet. The doctors can’t figure it out, so how could I?"

Yan Ruyi felt relieved inside, but showed an extremely worried expression, "But if you can’t find the cause of the illness, you can’t treat it effectively, what can be done?"

"Ruyi, come have a glass of water," Yan Chuhua handed a cup of water to Yan Ruyi.

"Thank you," Yan Ruyi accepted the water cup, but didn’t look at Yan Chuhua.

"Ruyi, do you want to move in with us?" Yan Chuhua asked.

"Me?" Yan Ruyi looked at Yan Chuhua with surprise.

The eyes finally met, and Yan Chuhua’s pupils contracted slightly.

Yan Ruyi’s expression froze, and her gaze suddenly became scattered.

Just now, while Yan Qianyi and Yan Ruyi were talking, Yan Chuhua took the opportunity of pouring water to secretly review the problem again.

At this moment, the hypnosis was successful, and she immediately seized the time to ask the first question.

"Yan Ruyi, was it you who tampered with something that caused grandma to fall ill?"

Yan Ruyi’s gaze was dull, and her face was expressionless, merely opening and closing her mouth, "Yes."

When Yan Chuhua heard this, her forehead instantly heated up, and she almost broke the hypnosis.

She quickly composed herself and asked the second question, "Is it because you and Han Yarong injected her with a drug that Yan Qianyi has been asleep for two years without waking up?"

Yan Ruyi said, "Yes."

Now Yan Chuhua couldn’t stay calm anymore, her hand clenched into a fist on the table with anger.

Yan Qianyi stood by, noticing Yan Ruyi’s eyelashes trembling slightly as if she were about to wake up.

She gently laid her hand over Yan Chuhua’s clenched fist, "Stay calm, ask her what kind of drug it was?"

Her aftereffects had not acted up lately because she had been continuously taking the tonics she concocted to boost her immune system and resist the effects of the drug on her body.

Once she stopped taking the medicine, she didn’t know if it would relapse.

If she could find the root cause, then they could treat the problem specifically.

Yan Chuhua asked as Yan Qianyi had instructed.

Yan Ruyi, however, said, "I don’t know, it was purchased by my mother on the black market."

Sweat was already beading on Yan Chuhua’s forehead.

It was said that someone with her special ability could also induce hallucinations in others.

But now, she was struggling to even control the duration of the hypnosis; the longer it went on, the more her spiritual power drained, and the more difficult it became.

She quickly seized the time to ask the third question, "Was the car accident that Shu Meng and Yan Qianyi had years ago arranged by Han Yarong?"

Shu Meng was Yan Qianyi’s mother.

Yan Ruyi said, "No."

As the words left her mouth, Yan Ruyi’s gaze sharpened, and clarity returned to her eyes.

With her spiritual power, she didn’t realize at all that she had just been hypnotized.

She merely felt like she had spaced out for a moment.

She turned her gaze back to Yan Chuhua, continuing the question from before, "Are you asking me to move in with you two?"

Yan Chuhua raised her hand to wipe the sweat from her forehead, grinding her teeth, "In your dreams!"

With that, she snatched the water glass from Yan Ruyi’s hand and splashed the water directly into Yan Ruyi’s face.

"Ah!" Yan Ruyi screamed and jumped up, "Are you crazy?"

Yan Chuhua suppressed the impulse to pounce on Yan Ruyi and beat her, "Get out, we don’t welcome you here in our dormitory, and if you take one more step in here next time, I’ll break your leg!"

"Are you nuts?" Yan Ruyi glared at Yan Chuhua, then turned towards Yan Qianyi, "Qianyi, is this the kind of lunatic you’re friends with now?"

Yan Qianyi coldly laughed, raising her eyebrows, "She told you to leave, didn’t you hear?"

"..." Yan Ruyi opened her mouth dumbfoundedly.

Everything was fine just a moment ago, how did things suddenly turn hostile?

Biting her teeth, Yan Ruyi said, "Did you call me here just to mock me?"
