Chapter 2616: Mission 2

Editor: Henyee Translations

The third branch of the Yan family depended on the food they had diligently saved over time for their sustenance. With their provisions now stolen, what options did they have left for their meals? While a few of them could endure hunger, it was not an option for their ailing mother.

Yan Dandong, overwhelmed with anxiety, was on the verge of tears. Her eyes were swollen from crying.

Gu Chaoyan sighed deeply.

This mission proved to be more challenging than the cultivation-oriented ones, posing a considerable headache.

“Don’t cry. No one can take anything away from us,” Gu Chaoyan assured.

“Sister, but you…” Yan Dandong hesitated, not due to a lack of trust in her sister, but out of concern for her sister’s well-being. Her sister had already fainted from injuries, and entrusting her with such intricate matters raised worries about her sister’s health. The fear was palpable in Yan Dandong’s eyes.

Gu Chaoyan sighed again.

Though the Yan family’s children demonstrated remarkable maturity, their sensibility held little value in their harsh environment. Despite their wisdom, they were still being driven to the brink of survival.

While their mother could shield them from some challenges in good health, the prospect of her illness left them vulnerable and unprotected.

Ultimately, the assets of the third branch of the Yan family were at risk of being divided, and the daughters were being hastily married off—a distressing fate.

Fortunately, Gu Chaoyan was present to offer protection.

As Yan Danqiu and Yan Dandong conversed, a commotion erupted outside. It seemed someone was attempting to force their way in by kicking the door.

Yan Dandong, overcome with anxiety, shouted frantically, “It must be them again. I’ve tried to block the door with various items, but it’s not holding!”

Gu Chaoyan nodded.

It was commendable that Yan Dandong could handle the situation at such a young age.

Now, it was Gu Chaoyan’s turn.

Surveying the room, Gu Chaoyan turned to Yan Dandong. “Go, bring me some knives from the kitchen.”

“Sister, what are you going to do?” Yan Dandong asked, puzzled.

“Don’t worry, just bring them here,” Gu Chaoyan reassured.

Yan Dandong hurriedly fetched the knives.

After a short while, Gu Chaoyan held two knives in her hands.

She stepped out with determination.

As she emerged, individuals from the clueless branch of the Yan family were already entering the courtyard. Having heard that the eldest branch had taken away a substantial amount of noodles, they had come, not anticipating the resistance from the younger members. Their audacity surprised them.

Without acknowledging Yan Danqiu and Yan Dandong in the courtyard, they proceeded to invade.

Gu Chaoyan confronted them. “What do you want?”

“What are you doing? Retrieve your belongings,” declared someone from the second branch of the Yan Family self-righteously.

“Take something? It belongs to my family, and you think you can just take it?” Gu Chaoyan questioned with a cold expression.

“Why not? Your father passed away early, and we were the ones looking after you. Isn’t that what we should do? You useless people still dare to obstruct us. Do you believe that we, from the second branch of the Yan Family, won’t abandon you anymore?” arrogantly retorted the person from the second branch.

“Enough, you don’t have to worry about it. Go home,” Gu Chaoyan replied sternly.

The second branch of the Yan Family was about to respond, but upon hearing this, they swallowed their words. “Useless thing, get out of the way.”

“We don’t need you to search for anything. You can leave now,” Gu Chaoyan stated icily.

“You don’t need us? Fine. If the Jiang family breaks off the engagement with you, don’t come running to us in tears.”
