Chapter 7: Not Stupid Enough
Zhou Yan's face froze.

You know a lot!
But no matter what kind of person she was in her heart, no matter if she was trying to be a sucker by giving her money to lure Yun Jiao into becoming a vain and greedy woman, or if she was Shen Jinyan, Zhou Yan didn't want to break up with Yun Jiao now.

"We've already bought so many things, how about we buy the rest another day? Didn't you say it was hot? I'll ask you out another day when the weather is cooler."

Listening to Zhou Yan's gentle voice, Yun Jiao casually picked up a tie to look at it.

"The store has air conditioning, so it's not hot. Besides, I thought about it. I've been living in the villa for so long, and I've been spending the money that Mr. Shen sent me. I'm really ashamed that I haven't given Mr. Shen a gift. It just so happens that I'm free today, so I'll pick some gifts for Mr. Shen."

The words Zhou Yan was about to say were blocked in her mouth. When she heard the words and thought about the clothes she picked being worn by Mr. Shen, she nodded shyly and didn't care how much money Yun Jiao would spend.

Plans cannot keep up with changes. Seeing that Yun Jiao bought clothes and bags in the same series, the salesperson called other colleagues to pack together. Zhou Yan was also anxious about this situation. She was afraid that there was not enough money, so she asked the person for two more transfers.

After all this trouble, his attention was so focused on Yun Jiao that he even forgot to buy a gift for Shen Jinyan.

Two hours later, Zhou Yan, who was in charge of checkout, looked at the boxes in front of her, which were filled with women's clothing, accessories, bags, cosmetics, skin care products, and even the top-of-the-line electronic products, but there was not a single gift that could be given to Shen Jinyan.

Zhou Yan's eyes gradually became suspicious, and even her hand stopped signing the bill.

"Didn't we agree to give Mr. Shen a gift?"

She looked towards the men's clothing area, eager to take action herself, but Yun Jiao gave her a look that said "how could I forget" and handed two exquisite sapphire cufflinks to the salesgirl to open an order.

"There aren't many gifts in the mall that are worthy of Mr. Shen. This pair of cufflinks is barely acceptable."

This cufflink is indeed worthy of Shen Jinyan. It is worth more than one million. With such a beautiful price, even Zhou Yan cannot say that it is unworthy.

So Zhou Yan looked at the balance and went to the bathroom again.

When they came out of the mall, the two of them were drinking milk tea. However, Yun Jiao had the mall deliver all her things to her villa, while Zhou Yan simply did not have enough money, so in the end she could only buy nothing.

The first time Zhou Yan went out with Yun Jiao, she came empty-handed and was unwilling to get nothing. When she saw the car parked there waiting for Yun Jiao, her eyes flashed and she spoke.

"My family's car hasn't come yet, I'll go back with you."

As she spoke, Zhou Yan was about to pull the car door open, but she didn't open it at all.

The Shen family's car is not something that anyone can make.

Zhou Yan glared at the driver who was not moved at all. Seeing Yun Jiao got into the car leisurely, she was about to say something, but Yun Jiao waved at her.

"The taxi is here, Zhou Yan, hurry up and get in. By the way, I will give that pair of cufflinks to Mr. Shen to show him your attitude. Remember to see a doctor, it's not good to keep going to the bathroom. I'm leaving first."

Zhou Yan gritted her teeth and watched Yun Jiao's car pass by her. She felt angry. But when she thought that Shen Jinyan knew that the cufflinks were bought by her and that her name could be left in Shen Jinyan's heart, her anger subsided. She pulled a taxi next to her and got in with disgust, which made the driver roll his eyes.

The mall’s delivery speed was very fast, and the goods were delivered not long after Yun Jiao arrived at the villa.

When Yun Jiao was happily packing her shopping bags, Shen Ji just came back from school.

Seeing a lot of shopping bags in the huge living room, the boy raised his thick eyebrows.

"I've been out shopping for so long, and finally bought something. It seems I'm not completely stupid yet."

Perhaps it was because the money Shen Jinyan gave him this time was not cheated away, Shen Ji looked at Yun Jiao with more favor and was not so stern anymore.

Yun Jiao didn't comment on this. She was indeed a bit stupid before. A rich girl taught her to dress up as a Christmas tree with luxury brands all over it, and two-thirds of the money went to Zhou Yan, but she didn't think it was wrong. How come she didn't meet such a big enemy?

"Can that clever Young Master Shen play games?" Yun Jiao raised her head and shook the latest game console in her hand.

Shen Ji was afraid that Shen Jinyan would be disappointed in him, as game consoles were things that would lead to loss of ambition, so he never played them. Even on his mobile phone, apart from some necessary software, he only had some study software.

But among young people, there are few who don’t like to play with these things.

Even Shen Ji, who had imitated Shen Jinyan's indifference to the extreme, couldn't appear indifferent at this moment. His face was still cold, but his eyes were already following the movement of the game console.

Like a reserved cat pretending to be indifferent in front of a cat.

Yun Jiao felt like teasing him, so she shook the game console. Seeing that Shen Ji's eyes were actually moving along with it, she couldn't help laughing. When Shen Ji's ears turned red and he snorted coldly, she stopped laughing, took apart the game console, and sincerely invited him to play games.

"I'll give you a favor, but don't overthink it, and don't push your luck." Shen Ji said this in a haughty manner, and was about to take the game controller.

Yun Jiao held back his laughter, withdrew his hand, and spoke seriously.

"Master Shen's face is so precious. It's just a game. Let me bear the pain of degradation!"

Shen Ji, who couldn't wait to play the game, froze in expression as he looked at Yun Jiao, looking torn between wanting to compromise and feeling embarrassed.

In the original book, Shen Ji set very high standards for himself because he had an extremely outstanding brother like Shen Jinyan. Although he was young, he looked cold and icy like an adult. Such a vivid expression has never appeared before.

Yun Jiao threw the game console to Shen Ji and said in a neither loud nor soft voice.

"If you want to play, just play. It's not something that's prohibited by the criminal law. Why bother about it?"

Shen Ji pursed his lips and looked at Yun Jiao who was choosing a game. The soft light shone on her, and it seemed that Yun Jiao also relaxed, exuding a tranquil and peaceful atmosphere.

But wasn't it the case that Yun Jiao before was always annoyed by his presence and often looked at him with disdain?

At first, Shen Ji was still thinking about the schemes that Yun Jiao had devised from time to time, but as he played the game, he stopped thinking about any conspiracies or plots. He only wanted to kill Yun Jiao who had beaten him and avenge his previous humiliation.

When Shen Jinyan came back from the company, he saw the two of them excitedly playing games.

After a hard day's work, Shen Jinyan suddenly felt complicated.

The servants surrounded the two of them and served them. Shen Jinyan stood there for three full minutes without anyone noticing him. It was finally Butler Li who spotted him.

"Mr. Shen, you're back."

This voice was like thunder from a clear sky. Yun Jiao and Shen Ji, who were playing games, stood up hurriedly like students who were caught absent-minded in class.

Shen Jinyan, who had never been ignored like this, stared at the two of them for a long time. After two seconds, he responded. After handing his coat to Butler Li, he walked towards the two of them, his eyes scanning the TV screen where the game was playing.

Shen Ji stood straighter this time, but still spoke.

"Brother, I want to play the game. I don't care about Yun Jiao."
