Chapter 1912 - 1913: It's Absolutely Impossible to Hide It from Him
The person who came wasn't anyone else, it was indeed Yan Jingchu's brother—Yan Qingjun!
He's back!
However, Yan Jingchu never expected Yan Qingjun to return so quickly. After all, it was only yesterday that she received news of Yan Qingjun's impending return.
She didn't anticipate that Yan Qingjun would appear in front of her today.
This left Yan Jingchu somewhat caught off guard.
Though surprised, upon seeing Yan Qingjun, Yan Jingchu instinctively rushed into his arms.
For a long time, she had been bearing the burden of the entire Yan family by herself, enduring Ye Xunhuan's oppression and control; she was truly exhausted.
Now, seeing her brother Yan Qingjun, she couldn't help but throw herself into his embrace.
Once Yan Jingchu was in his arms, Yan Qingjun gently stroked her hair, saying softly with tenderness, "I'm back!"
As he said this, a flicker of sharpness flashed across Yan Qingjun's eyes, but it disappeared in an instant.
"Brother, I..."
"Jing Chu, I know how hard it has been for you recently, but from now on, I'll bear it all!" Yan Qingjun said firmly.
Yan Jingchu slowly rose from Yan Qingjun's embrace, her gaze gradually settling on him.
Though Yan Qingjun looked the same as before, showing no changes, there was an added layer of resilience. Perhaps due to experiencing too much, his dark eyes appeared deep and unfathomable, like the vast ocean, concealing his inner thoughts.
At this moment, he seemed much more mature and steady than before.
"Brother, our Yan family..."
"I know everything!"
As Yan Qingjun spoke, a shadow of gloom and ruthlessness flashed across his eyes, unnoticed even by the close Yan Jingchu.
"Everything the Yan family lost, I will reclaim," Yan Qingjun spoke again, with an even colder tone than before, "And they will pay the price!"
Although Yan Qingjun disappeared for a while, it didn't mean he was oblivious to everything.
On the contrary, he knew everything, and knew it well.
Seeing Yan Qingjun's confidence, Yan Jingchu opened her mouth but eventually refrained from speaking.
It seemed Yan Qingjun sensed that Yan Jingchu wanted to say something but didn't know why she swallowed her words, so he gently asked, "Jing Chu, just say whatever you want to say!"
"Brother, Ye Xunhuan he..."
Ye Xunhuan!
Upon hearing this name, Yan Qingjun's expression changed slightly, and a hint of hatred immediately flashed through his eyes!
This hatred and intent to kill seemed to penetrate his bones and seep into his blood, impossible to erase.
Considering the circumstances, Yan Qingjun's reaction was quite normal, since Ye Xunhuan not only killed his grandfather Yan Zhengrong but also his parents.
Now, the state of the Yan family was entirely due to Ye Xunhuan's actions!
How could Yan Qingjun possibly let this enmity go!
But soon, Yan Qingjun took a deep breath, suppressing the hatred and murderous intent within him, not allowing the resentment to sweep over him.
When Yan Qingjun returned, someone told him that hatred could make one grow stronger quickly, but it could also lead to losing reason.
Indeed, hatred is a double-edged sword; if used correctly, it could accelerate one's growth and strength, but if used poorly, it would lead to ruin!
This advice was something Yan Qingjun always kept in mind, never forgetting.
Therefore, when Yan Qingjun found the hatred within about to overtake his reason, he promptly took a deep breath, repressing his vendetta deep within!
Once he calmed down, Yan Qingjun spoke again, "I won't let Ye Xunhuan go, but before that, I need to reclaim everything the Yan family lost!"
At this moment, Yan Qingjun appeared calm and steady, with no inclination to lose reason due to hatred.
Looking at Yan Qingjun's determined expression, the scene of Ye Xunhuan's call last night immediately flashed in Yan Jingchu's mind, filling her with inner turmoil and conflict.
Should she tell Yan Qingjun? But if she tells him, what if Ye Xunhuan really comes to kill her?
Who would be able to stop Ye Xunhuan?
Moreover, Ye Xunhuan even knew about Yan Qingjun's return, so there's a high chance that people within the Protectors are working for him!
At this moment, Yan Jingchu's internal struggle and unease reached a peak, leaving her at a loss!
To say she wasn't afraid of Ye Xunhuan would be a lie; she was terrified, and this fear was deeply ingrained, as if into her bones and blood.
She wanted to tell Yan Qingjun about it, but she was scared Ye Xunhuan might come to kill her, hence her internal struggle and indecision on what to do next.
Yan Qingjun noticed these subtle changes in Yan Jingchu's expression, but he didn't think much of it, assuming she was worried he wouldn't be able to deal with Ye Xunhuan and might harm himself, so he gently said, "Jing Chu, don't worry, I can definitely handle Ye Xunhuan!"
Yan Jingchu sighed inwardly but chose not to disclose her hidden worries to Yan Qingjun, instead softly saying, "Brother, Ye Xunhuan isn't easy to deal with, you..."
"I know he isn't easy to deal with, but he's in the open, and I'm in the dark!" Yan Qingjun said heavily, "Being hidden in the dark is the most dangerous, the deadliest!"
"Moreover, Jing Chu, I need you to continue managing the Yan family while I handle everything from behind the scenes!"
Yan Qingjun's words made it clear that he wasn't planning to show himself for now, and everything still required Yan Jingchu to oversee.
At least, on the surface, it was so!
Yan Qingjun's meaning was too evident for Yan Jingchu not to understand, leaving her a bit anxious.
If Ye Xunhuan had no idea, it wouldn't matter, but now that Ye Xunhuan knew about Yan Qingjun's return!
If they continue to confront Ye Xunhuan this way, they are bound to lose without a doubt!
"Brother, Ye Xunhuan has many ears and eyes, the news of your return is unlikely to stay hidden from him!"
