Chapter 8 Gift Cufflinks
When Shen Ji said this, Shen Jinyan did not express any special expression, but just moved his eyes slightly to Yun Jiao beside him.
There was no sign of joy or anger in those eyes. Well, to be more precise, there was no overly obvious expression on Shen Jinyan's face.
Yun Jiao looked at the man's cold and handsome face, wondering if the other party was angry that he had led Shen Ji astray, a good student who had not yet transformed into a gloomy villain because his brother's heart was completely dominated by the heroine.
While she was thinking about how to answer, Shen Ji thought Yun Jiao wanted to please him and took all the responsibility on himself, and his face looked a little awkward.
But the next second, Yun Jiao, who he thought would not miss the opportunity to please, spoke.
"Mr. Shen, you heard it. It was Shen Ji who wanted to play. I'm a weak girl. I can't force someone who is much stronger than me to play games with me."
Shen Ji was just about to feel awkwardly touched, but it was like a bubble that would burst if it was not poked, and the corner of his mouth twitched.
You really know how to take advantage of the situation.
Butler Li was also surprised by Yun Jiao's words and sighed in his heart. If he shirked responsibility and put the blame on Shen Ji, it would probably make Shen Jinyan even more unhappy and he might be kicked out of the villa.
Under the pitying gazes of Shen Ji and Li's servant, Shen Jinyan withdrew his gaze and said lightly.
"I am really sorry to trouble you, Miss Yun."
After saying this, the man asked Butler Li to prepare dinner, and then sat on the sofa to deal with documents, as if he didn't care at all that Shen Ji was led astray by the game.
In fact, Shen Jinyan really didn't care. Not to mention that Shen Ji's self-control was not so easily broken by a small game, it was Shen Ji's usual style of imitating his way of doing things that made Shen Jinyan quite depressed. Now that someone wanted to break his temper, Shen Jinyan had no reason to bother and was happy to see it happen.
Shen Ji is different from him, he is born like this, there is no need for Shen Ji to torture himself.
Looking at the man sitting there, his sleeves slightly rolled up, revealing his cold white wrists, sitting there straight, with stern eyebrows and eyes, and even his hair showing nobility.
Yun Jiao was surprised, and Shen Ji was even more confused. How could this matter just pass by so easily?
So playing games is not a big deal in his brother's eyes? Or has he never had high expectations of him?
Yun Jiao felt something was wrong and looked towards Shen Ji, seeing the loneliness that was almost solidifying on him.
From that expression, it was obvious that he was silent and was just imagining things in his mind.
Yun Jiaoyou didn't want this person to turn evil into a villain in her imagination in advance, steal her roles, and delay her from making money from the system.
So Yun Jiao asked Shen Jinyan: "Will Mr. Shen play this kind of game?"
Shen Jinyan looked up when he heard that.
Yun Jiao was wearing home clothes at this time. The warm-toned clothes made her look a lot gentler, which was very different from her appearance last night.
Shen Jinyan didn't know why, but his eyes stayed on Yun Jiao's lips for two seconds. When he thought of the scene of this person biting his chin, his eyes deepened slightly, and that place couldn't help but feel hot.
"Yes," he replied.
What happened next was beyond Shen Ji's imagination. The big brother he admired, who sat high up in the position and signed contracts worth hundreds of millions, held the game controller in his hand and started playing the game with an extremely calm expression.
His skills are quite good. After Yun Jiao, he is the second person who can beat him in the game.
"Shen Ji, you're such a wimp." After being dragged down by Shen Ji and losing the game again, Yun Jiao made a sound of disgust.
Shen Ji's ears turned a little red, and he felt embarrassed, but he couldn't refute it.
Especially when he saw Shen Jinyan slowly putting down the controller and looking over, Shen Ji felt even more depressed.
But knowing that Shen Jinyan also plays games, Shen Ji's pressure on himself was relieved a lot, and he relaxed his body and leaned comfortably on the sofa with Yun Jiao. Shen Jinyan put down the controller and saw that the two of them were sitting very close to each other. He frowned slightly, but soon relaxed and no one noticed.
Butler Li looked at this harmonious scene with great satisfaction. This was the relaxed atmosphere that should exist between brothers. He looked at Yun Jiao with gratitude and then called the three of them to have dinner.
After dinner, Shen Ji went upstairs to study.
When Yun Jiao was about to go upstairs with the shopping bags, she saw the pair of cufflinks, hesitated for a moment, and finally handed them to Shen Jinyan.
"I got this gift for Mr. Shen when I was shopping. Do you want it?"
The value of this pair of cufflinks is less than one-tenth of the ones he is wearing.
If he wears it, those people will always maliciously suspect that something bad is going to happen to the Shen family.
But when Shen Jinyan looked into Yun Jiao's eyes, he always felt that if he didn't accept it, Yun Jiao would express his disappointment very neatly and then put the things away naturally.
Shen Jinyan suddenly found this pair of cufflinks pleasing to the eye.
He reached out his hand, took the cufflinks and nodded.
"Thank you Miss Yun for the gift."
Yun Jiao felt that this thank you was like stabbing her in the heart.
It was a mistake. I shouldn't have used Shen Jinyan's excuse to get more money from Zhou Yan.
Yun Jiao curled the corners of his mouth, not even having the energy to deal with anyone, and went upstairs.
That listless look made Shen Jinyan stroke the box containing the cufflinks, and for a moment he had the urge to return the things.
Watching Yun Jiao disappear from his sight, Shen Jinyan pressed his forehead and felt that he was really losing his mind.
But remembering He Yuzhang's invitation, Shen Jinyan lowered his eyes to look at the box, called Butler Li, and gave him a few instructions.
Yun Jiao returned to her room and put the shopping bags in the cloakroom. She was just about to wash up and rest when she got the news from Butler Li that she and Shen Jinyan would go to the horse farm tomorrow.
This was obviously a plot point. Yun Jiao had just sent Butler Li away when the system, which had been silent for most of the day, spoke.
[Host, you must go tomorrow! You also have to take the blame, being misunderstood by Shen Jinyan and He Yuzhang, and being the one who caused the heroine to fall and get injured. ]
Yes, in the plot at the horse farm, another male protagonist He Yuzhang and the female protagonist Qiao Xianxian will both appear, and because the female protagonist fell off the horse and was injured, Shen Jinyan had the opportunity to have close contact with the female protagonist for the first time.
It also made He Yuzhang realize that his affection for the heroine wasn't just because of their mother, and that the reason he took extra care of her was because he really had other feelings for her.
And she was just a simple scapegoat, misunderstood by the two male protagonists, which further deepened the bad impression in Shen Jinyan's mind, causing her to really hurt Qiao Xianxian after she turned evil, and he and the other three male protagonists dealt with her without hesitation.
Yun Jiao, who was just a part of the love drama between the male and female protagonists, closed the door expressionlessly.
The system, which was determined to be a cold task issuing machine, could not help but lower its voice at the dejected look.
[Although you are destined to go offline after the hero and heroine are together, there is still a lot of time in between. You can live a good life by completing the tasks well and using the task rewards.]
Yun Jiao was lying on the bed, drowsy, and didn't notice that the noise of the system was not much louder than that of a mosquito.
