Kang Mao Yao's face turned red when she heard what Yu Yan said. She looked at the young woman in front of her hatefully. "Looking at the mine? Heh, you're just dreaming if you think that you can own this mine! What, are you now jealous of us?"
Yu Yan merely looked at her aunt with indifference. She had long known that Kang Mao Yao had 20 percent share of AB mine, which gave her a lot of money to squander. Compared to her who could only have a few thousands, it was truly a drop in the ocean.
However, why should she care about that?
"Aunt, did you forget that Grandfather stated that I can have the leftover 5 percent share of profit should I get married before 28 years old? Do you think that it's an impossible request?" Yu Yan retorted back. Her grandfather died around a year ago and at that time, he was lamenting the fact that Yu Yan was still alone even though she was already in her mid-twenties.
She knew that her grandfather was worried about her, so he put such request in the will. Even though she never had much interest to fulfil it, she would not show it in front of her aunt and annoying family members.
"What? You're just a single woman who tried to snatch Xin'er boyfriend! You're such a despicable woman who will even destroy your sister happiness, so what can't someone like you do?"
Snatch Yu Xin's boyfriend?
Yu Yan's eyes turned even colder. Just whose boyfriend Bao Tu used to be? Yu Xin? How laughable.
"Heh, Hahaha!"
Kang Mao Yao, who was prepared to chide Yu Yan until the very end, was stunned when he heard the woman laughed. She looked with bewilderment while Yu Yan sent her a mocking gaze.
"Is that what Kang Mao Lan said to you?" Yu Yan didn't even bother addressing that person as her mother. She felt so vexed that a woman like that was her birth mother.
"You…"
"Do you know that you've been had. Listen carefully, Bao Tu was my boyfriend and it was Yu Xin who snatched him from me. You think I'm just kidding around? Why don't you try to ask some people who did he bring to the party back then?" Yu Yan asked mockingly.
Even though she was so disgusted by the name Bao Tu now, she still didn't want the label of third party to land on her. Third party? Who's the real third party, huh?
Back when she was dating Bao Tu, they had been to some parties and met some upper society young masters. They already knew that she was the one introduced as Bao Tu's boyfriend back then. Where was Yu Xin?
She was not even in the picture.
Yu Yan looked at Kang Mao Yao and sneered. "Before smearing other people's name, why don't you bring the proof out first? You're just being used by Kang Mao Lan who spread nonsense but you didn't even realize it yet. As someone who spend most of your time in parties, how could you not know that the ones hated the most are those who spread lies?"
Kang Mao Yao's face turned pale. She was the first daughter and also the second child in Kang Family. Because she had a brother who would always shield her, she grew up to be a person who loved parties. Since money was never a problem, she didn't even change and still hosted countless parties almost every single day and participated in numerous occasions.
"Open your eyes and try to search for the truth first. Being used by other people so easily, are you not ashamed of yourself?" Yu Yan snorted. She turned her body around. "Oh, and stop bothering me when you didn't have any connection with me. Stop being shameless and act as an elder when you have never been one in the first place."
"Yu Yan! Don't go overboard!"
"Overboard?" Yu Yan looked at Kang Mao Yao up and down. "Someone like you who didn't even want to care for her own daughter and spend her time partying all year long, do you even deserve to be called an elder?"
This time, Kang Mao Yao had no more words to reply.

Yu Yan didn't even bother waiting for Kang Mao Yao to recover and left the scene. She knew that no matter what she said, Kang Mao Yao would never try to reflect. In the end, what she would do was only complaining to her husband and to Kang Mao Lan.
As for her being an elder, it was the truth.
Kang Mao Yao was a party addict. She would do whatever it was possible to hold more parties. Squandering money and then head to more parties, talking with other people who held similar interest, almost everyone in the middle and partially upper society knew her habit.
After all, she was present in almost all type of parties.
As for her daughter and her husband… they were rarely seen in any kind of occasion.
By the time Kang Mao Yao came to, she realized that Yu Yan had walked far away and there was a man following behind her. The man had long hair and looked quite suspicious but Kang Mao Yao didn't recognize him in the slightest bit.
"Who's he?"
Kang Mao Yao wanted to ask Yu Yan but she knew that she had lost her chance. Besides, talking with that rude and annoying woman tested her patience. She felt as if her body was already drained of energy from dealing with just one annoying niece.
Even partying for an entire day never felt this tiring.
She picked up her phone and called Kang Mao Lan, determined to transfer all of her frustration to her younger sister. Hmph, she would see what that Yu Yan would do when her mother was the one to take action.
…
Meanwhile, Yu Yan and Long Ying had arrived at the car.
"Let's go."
Long Ying followed his wife obediently and didn't even spare another glance at that Kang Mao Yao woman. When they entered the car, he pulled Yu Yan to his embrace and lightly patted her back tenderly.
"You must be tired. Shall we rest in a place nearby?"
"Do you have house here?" Yu Yan asked.
Towards that question, Long Ying didn't immediately answer. He patted Yu Yan's head. "We can book a hotel here. I have discount card for hotel from Zhang Enterprise."
Zhang Enterprise?
It took Yu Yan a few more seconds to recall that her best friend, Feng Mian's husband, had a brother who owned Zhang Enterprise. He had several hotels under his name and all of them were high ends hotel, which usually only those from upper society could ever reserve.
Just a night there would cost several thousands of yuan.
"Isn't that too expensive?" Yu Yan furrowed her brows.
"Not at all." Long Ying pondered for a while. "Besides, we're going to visit Kang Family lawyer tomorrow, right? It'll take too long if we have to return back to City F then return back City A."
That's true too.
Yu Yan looked at Long Ying for a moment then nodded in agreement. She actually still wanted to ask him whether he had house in this city or not but for some reason, the word didn't want to come out. In the end, she could only agree to his notion.
An Lin drove the car to the nearby hotel and Yu Yan walked out of the car. Seeing the luxurious hotel, she felt a bit overwhelmed for some reasons. This made her a bit hesitant to come inside because she felt that she was not dressed for this kind of occasion.
"What is it, Yan'er?"
"Long Ying, I…"
"HMm?" Long Ying peered closer, his face just a few centimeters away from Yu Yan. The uneasiness within her eyes was visible to him.
Yu Yan blushed and tried to pull away. "Y…You're too close."
"We're husband and wife, why can't I get close to you?"
