"What a nuisance! 'Miss,' indeed! I wonder where this country bumpkin came from. Doesn't he know that 'Miss' is still a bad word these days?"

Chen Yu was about to retort after hearing the burly man's words, but then she remembered the purpose of her visit and quietly grumbled as she stepped aside.

The burly man glanced at Chen Yu but said nothing, instead leading a girl with an umbrella inside.

Chen Yu looked at the girl with the umbrella and felt that her figure was somewhat familiar, but then she thought she was overthinking it, since Lin An'an wouldn't be here.

Chen Yu then followed the girl and entered the banquet hall without incident.

After entering the banquet hall, Chen Yu casually swirled a glass of champagne around.

But he wandered around for a long time without seeing Chen Shaokang or anyone from the Situ family.

Just as I was wondering where I could find them, I turned around and unexpectedly saw Lin An'an.

Lin An'an saw Chen Yu at that moment, and her eyes lit up the instant she saw him: "Brother, what are you doing here?"

Before Chen Yu could finish speaking, Lin An'an had already run up to him and excitedly asked.

Looking at Lin An'an who was holding her hand, Chen Yu realized that she was seeing the real Lin An'an, not a hallucination. She asked in confusion, "Shouldn't you be here right now? Weren't you going to play with Lili and the others?"

"Oh dear, what are you saying? I came here to find you. What am I doing here if you're not here? You said you were in the capital, so I came to find you, but I really didn't expect to run into you here."

Lin An'an asked excitedly, "Do you know Chen Shaokang or anyone from the Situ family?"

"I don't know either of these two people. My reason for coming here is related to them, so I used an invitation to sneak in."

Seeing Lin An'an's excited expression, Chen Yu couldn't help but smile helplessly. He then opened Lin An'an's hand, since he had already seen many people looking in his direction.

Lin An'an watched Chen Yu break free of her hand, feeling a pang of disappointment. She frowned and glared at Chen Yu before saying, "What's wrong with you? Why are you involved with the Si family? Why don't you tell me? Maybe I can help you."

"The fact that you're here means you must know Chen Shaokang or someone from the Si family. I might really need your help today. What's your relationship with them like?"

Upon hearing Lin An'an's words, Chen Yu's eyes immediately lit up. If she could get in touch with Situ An through Lin An'an, that would be even better.

Looking at Chen Yu's bright eyes, Lin An'an couldn't help but nod: "You don't know, do you? This Situ An is my cousin."

"Oh? So you two have a good relationship?"

Chen Yu hadn't expected that Lin An'an and Situ An had this kind of relationship, so she couldn't help but frown.

His original plan was to let Situ An and Chen Shaokang fight amongst themselves, but if Lin An'an and Situ An had a good relationship, he didn't know what to do.

After all, if Situ An gets hurt, Lin An'an would be very upset.

Lin An'an scoffed at Chen Yu's words, then frowned and said, "We're mortal enemies. Are you planning to take him down? Then you'd better not hold back. You have to beat him to death right there."

Seeing Lin An'an's gritted teeth, Chen Yu couldn't help but laugh, then asked in confusion, "What happened? Tell me in detail? What did Situ An do to you?"

"Don't even mention it. He and I are cousins, but I never expected that he would keep pursuing me just to gain a foothold in his own family. It's so annoying."

Lin An'an frowned, somewhat speechless, then took the champagne from Chen Yu's hand and drank it all in one gulp: "Speaking of this makes me very angry. You don't know, do you? He's actually an adopted child. His real cousin should be Chen Shaokang."

"But I've only met Chen Shaokang a few times since I was a child, so I don't know what kind of personality he has. But I always felt that the two of them had a good relationship, so Chen Shaokang should also be a bad person."

"How could such a thing happen? This Situ An is really no good. You and he are cousins, you shouldn't get married, you're too close relatives."

Chen Yu was taken aback when she saw that Situ An had set his sights on Lin An'an. She froze for a moment, then scratched her hair in frustration: "If that's the case, how do you want him to die? I'll help you."

"It can be considered as a small way of repaying him for the losses I suffered under him."

"How to die? The word 'death' is too far away for me. Why don't you teach him a lesson? As long as you prevent him from becoming the heir, he probably won't bother me anymore."

After listening to Chen Yu's words, Lin An'an thought about it carefully and felt that although Situ An was an abandoned baby, he had still been in contact with the Situ family for a long time.

Moreover, they were being groomed as heirs, so their relationship must be quite strong.

If Situ An were to die directly, the Situ family might definitely turn the tables and find the mastermind behind it all, then put him to death.

That would definitely bring Chen Yu a lot of trouble.

If it would cause trouble for Chen Yu, then Lin An'an felt that it was okay not to seek revenge.

So Lin An'an hesitated for a while, then said to Chen Yu, "The Situ family is still very powerful. So, we just need to embarrass him and make the Situ family abandon him and marginalize him. We shouldn't get involved in his life or death. If we do, and the Situ family finds out, it will be terrible."

"I don't want you to get hurt because of me."

Chen Yu nodded after hearing Lin An'an's words and said with a smile, "Okay, don't worry, I'll handle it. Don't worry about me, your brother is reliable."

"But I didn't expect you to be so worried about me, girl. Do you think you like me?"

Seeing Chen Yu start teasing her, Lin An'an immediately smiled and said, "Of course, otherwise what do you think would motivate me to travel all the way from there to find you? Of course, it's because I like you."

"But you have so many women around you, you probably didn't expect me to contact you after all this time, right?"

"Hmph, all men are big pigs."

Chen Yu was taken aback by Lin An'an's quick response and was momentarily at a loss for words. She then smiled and said, "Oh dear, I've been extremely busy lately, which is why I haven't had time to contact you. Besides, didn't you say your family's financial situation is quite extraordinary? With my family's financial situation, I wouldn't dare to contact you."
