After a brief exchange of greetings at the airport, everyone drove straight home.
A grand welcome ceremony had already been prepared at home.
The ceremony to welcome the two young masters back was combined with Yina Yin's sixteenth birthday, so the Yin household was lively for several days.
As expected, Yina Yin refused to admit defeat and dragged Ethan Yin and Miles Gu to the training room.
Everyone eagerly awaited the final result.
The translation uses 'Nora' for Xiao Nuo, which is a common nickname for Yina Yin in American contexts. This matches the informal style and nickname usage.
Rona Muir couldn't hold back and was the first to ask, "Nora, so, who won?"
"Godmother!" Yina Yin replied calmly, "Why ask when you already know? How could I possibly beat them? I didn't bring them in to compete—I wanted to see their real stats."
Yina Yin shook her phone and said, "I've got their most accurate data. Brother Ethan and Brother Miles each have their strengths and weaknesses. So, I just need to focus on training in the areas where they're weak."
Everyone burst out laughing.
She still refuses to admit defeat!
Well, that stubborn streak definitely comes from Cecilia Gu. Guess she really takes after her mom.
Back in the day, Cecilia Gu was just as headstrong. Like mother, like daughter.
At that moment, Ethan Yin and Miles Gu walked out of the training room together, both freshly showered and clearly having worked up a sweat.
Cecilia Gu laughed and said, "So, how does it feel? Like you just escaped the wolf's den only to enter the tiger's lair?"
Ethan and Miles exchanged a smile and answered in unison, "Piece of cake! That training was nothing. But Nina and Lucas Mu better be ready—we just saw Nina's strength stats, so we can crank up the intensity for her!"
Lucas Mu wailed, "Wait! Ethan, Miles! It's fine if you make it tougher for Nina, but don't drag me into this!"
Miles just raised an eyebrow, but Ethan said, "You're a boy. If your training isn't even as tough as the girls', how are you supposed to inherit Godmother and Godfather's legacy?"
Lucas wailed again, "My dad's a total weakling! What legacy am I supposed to inherit?"
Pfft... Everyone around burst out laughing!
In short, the Yin household couldn't have been more lively these past few days.
To celebrate Yina Yin's sixteenth birthday and her move up to junior year, the Yun Family came with Jane Xiao and showered her with extravagant gifts.
Her aunt, Molly Yun, also gave her an especially generous present.
Basically, anyone connected with the Yin family made sure not to miss out.
Ryan King brought gifts and came with Leo Mo to congratulate Yina Yin on her birthday—and to help Cecilia Gu handle the Saint Diana Academy enrollment paperwork.
So, the new generation of heirs finally gathered together at Saint Diana Academy in Newport City.
March brought spring sunshine, and Saint Diana Academy officially opened for the new semester.
All the heirs showed up for school, each with their own ambitions and dreams.
Yina Yin had planned to ride her motorcycle to school that morning, but Ethan Yin stopped her early: "You're riding with me today."
"Why?" Yina Yin put down her soup. "I don't want to go by car! Motorcycles are way more comfortable!"
Comfortable?
She just thinks motorcycles are cooler than cars!
Since she's not yet eighteen, Cecilia Gu won't let her drive a car to school, so riding a motorcycle is her only option!
Why allow motorcycles but not cars?
Because the bodyguards can ride motorcycles alongside her, and it won't cause a traffic jam!
Just imagine—a whole fleet of bodyguards driving after Yina Yin's car, speeding down the road...
Yeah, the Newport City traffic commissioner would probably faint right at the Yin family's gate.
Ethan Yin finished his breakfast with elegance and said leisurely, "From today on, you're riding to school with me."
Yina Yin hadn't reacted yet, but Cherry Miller, standing nearby, fluttered her eyelashes.
Ethan Yin glanced at Cherry Miller, a faint smile playing at his lips.
