Chapter 479: Chapter 479: If I Were Half as Smart as Qin Yumeng, I Wouldn’t Be at a Disadvantage Before You

Qin Yuyan still smiled, the smile bitter and resigned, "When we were younger, why were we so malicious?"

After reaping what we sowed, I think carefully, what did Yuran do wrong?

What right did we have to take so much from her? We were wrong, and to be honest, I feel ashamed even thinking about asking for forgiveness."

Qin Yuyan was utterly disappointed with the Qin Family, but since she was already a discarded piece, their assets were shrinking, and by selling them now, she could still get quite a bit of money. She had thought about her way out.

Looking at the so-called friends she had grown up with, she suddenly smiled, "I’ve decided to sell all my properties, leaving only the house in Huafuyue to live in;

Liquidate as much of the remaining assets as possible, to plan for the future. We are all discarded by our families, with no hope of sympathy from them;

I just hope that, in the end, the family won’t make me a scapegoat."

Jia Ziyi couldn’t bear to part with so much real estate, but if he didn’t cash in now, when the assets completely became someone else’s, he wouldn’t be able to get a penny out of them. He had spent years in careless debauchery and extravagance.

He had never thought about how he would live in the future and didn’t dare to think about it.

Now that Qin Yuyan had shared her plans, he also began to feel restless. However, Ji Zexiu and others were the least willing to let go. Ji Zexiu clenched his fist, "Is he, Bo Yan, really not giving us any face?"

Qin Yuyan and Jia Ziyi both looked at him, feeling he was being absurd.

Could he even call out to Bo Yan?

The consequences of confronting Bo Yan were clear, even without attempting it. They didn’t dare to bet on it.

Jia Ziyi advised, "Zexiu, if we keep our green hills now, we may have a chance to turn things around in the future. If you can’t accept that, I’m afraid you won’t be able to bear the end."

In the entire capital, not everyone could stand up to Bo Yan. His family’s influence was laid out there, with connections in every field. They couldn’t make a splash, so they could only find another way to make themselves less pitiable.

Ji Zexiu humphed, "If you two want to sell, go sell on your own. Our little group hasn’t been united or inclined to gather for two years now;

It’s good that we go our separate ways in the future. I won’t come here again."

Looking at the extreme Ji Zexiu, Qin Yuyan and Jia Ziyi didn’t quite know how to handle it. They were unaware of what he was being stubborn about, or perhaps it was his pride he couldn’t let go. Qin Yuyan tried again to persuade him, "Zexiu, you need to think it through."

Ji Zexiu, "I’ve thought it through very clearly. Where are you planning to go after you sell your properties?"

Over the past few years, Qin Yuyan’s disappointment in the Qin Family had grown to despair, and she had felt the hardships of life. With a bitter smile, she said, "I must find a trade to support myself. I plan to study abroad."

Ji Zexiu snorted in mockery, "Qin Yuyan, how old are you this year? Studying, what an idea."

Qin Yuyan wasn’t angry; as everything was falling apart, there was no point in making a scene, "Then what do you suggest I do?"

Ji Zexiu said nothing, and Jia Ziyi, stroking his chin, smiled, "I think it’s quite good. As long as you’re happy, go study something you like, find a job, and just live."

Qin Yuyan nodded, "I no longer have anything to do with the Qin Family, and I don’t want to return to a home like theirs. You’re welcome to visit me overseas in the future."

Just as Jia Ziyi was about to say something, the door of the private room was suddenly flung open. Everyone turned their eyes toward it and saw Qin Yunong with red eyes, charging straight toward Qin Yuyan.

Qin Yuyan’s lips curled into a mocking, cold smile, but before she could speak, she was suddenly slapped by Qin Yunong, leaving her stunned.

Smack...

The loud slap echoed in everyone’s ears as Jia Ziyi moved quickly, catching Qin Yunong’s hand before she could deliver a second slap, his face dark with anger.

Glancing sideways at Qin Yuyan, "Are you alright."

Qin Yuyan, covering her right cheek that had been struck by Qin Yunong, looked up, her vision darkening, pushed Jia Ziyi away, and returned a slap to Qin Yunong with equal force to the one she received.

Qin Yunong’s eyes nearly burst into flames.

"Qin Yuyan, did you already know?"

Qin Yuyan knew what she was asking about but looked at her calmly, letting out a sneer, "Oh, the Qin Family’s favored legitimate heir, have you come to revel in my downfall?

Sorry, but I haven’t fallen that low yet. If you have any grievances, go hide and vent in your Ivory Tower, and don’t look for a sense of presence here."

Qin Yunong glared fiercely at Qin Yuyan, "Did you know about Yuran and Bo Yan’s relationship all along and give me false information out of hatred for me, just to watch me make a fool of myself, to feel a sense of achievement?"

Qin Yuyan’s cold sneer morphed into a mocking sneer, "What do I know? As the discarded member of the Qin Family, would I know more than what Grandpa tells you?

You’re so conceited, thinking that all your conclusions are correct, and when you realize the script isn’t following your plot, you start to lose it,

Heh... With someone like you, do you think Bo Yan is foolish enough to fall for you? Are you so desperate to have him?"

Qin Yuyan’s words were unpleasant, but each one was like a knife, ruthlessly piercing Qin Yunong’s heart. Qin Yunong, with a sneer, looked at Qin Yuyan, "Qin Yuyan, you did it on purpose, and for this, I will settle the score with you."

"Legitimate heirs shouldn’t touch what belongs to the discarded; just as the discarded shouldn’t covet what belongs to the legitimate. You’re breaking the rules. Tell me, how will Grandpa deal with you? Don’t forget that Qin Yumeng is no less capable than you, perhaps even more so. The only difference between you two is the status of legitimate versus illegitimate;

Grandpa hasn’t entirely sided with Qin Yumeng over us because she has real talent. Instead of seeking your sense of presence here with me, you should think about how you could possibly compete with Qin Yumeng?

Do you really like Bo Yan? Probably not; what you truly desire is supreme power. As the wife of Bo Yan, with him by your side, what could you possibly lack, right?

Blinded by jealousy, are you trying to assert dominance over me here?

Qin Yunong, how did I not realize you were so spineless? Yuran overpowers you, Bo Yan is out of your reach, yet you swagger around under the roof of your own family?"

Qin Yunong’s face went through a drastic change at Qin Yuyan’s sarcasm. He raised his hand, "Qin Yuyan, you..."

Qin Yuyan fearlessly stared straight at his raised hand, "What, you want to hit me again? What high ground do you think you have?"

Qin Yunong pulled back his hand, looking at her indifferently, "Ha... you’re right, what can I possibly say to you here, Qin Yumeng is as worthless to me as you are."

Qin Yuyan, "If I had half of Qin Yumeng’s intelligence, I wouldn’t be at a disadvantage in front of you right now."

Qin Yuyan remained silent, sweeping her gaze around the room and letting out a sneer, "Birds of a feather flock together; you’re all indeed irredeemable trash, stubborn and disgusting things."
