Chapter 94
Shen Shuyu didn’t mind. At this moment, he happened to walk to the entrance of a luxury store.
He looked up at the luxury store and walked in. Today was a workday, so there weren’t many people in the store. Even on rest days, such luxury stores generally didn’t have many people. Nowadays, it was very advanced; one could try things on virtually online. If liked, place an order directly, and someone would deliver it within 24 hours.
Shen Shuyu walked in. The store staff were busy, seemingly preparing orders.
Seeing him enter, a very cute-looking young girl came over. “Hello, how can I help you?”
Shen Shuyu looked at her and noticed her face suddenly turned red.
What was this for?
Shen Shuyu was baffled. The young girl seemed to realize she was a bit agitated too. She said, “Sorry, sorry, I just watched the survival battle and thought you were too amazing. You are the pride of our Omegas!”
“Oh.” Shen Shuyu pursed his lips in embarrassment. “Thank you.”
The young girl nodded with sparkling eyes.
Shen Shuyu looked around and pointed to a brooch. “Could I trouble you to take this out for me to see?”
The young girl hurriedly said okay and took out the brooch. The brooch was shaped like the sun, using melee diamonds to create the shape of rays, with a perfectly colored ruby in the very center.
So beautiful.
Shen Shuyu took a fancy to this brooch at first glance. He asked, “How much?”
The young girl quoted a price. It was a bit more expensive than he imagined; this time’s bonus wasn’t quite enough, but Shen Shuyu could afford it now!
He said very generously, “Wrap it up for me, thank you.”
The young girl didn’t expect Shen Shuyu to be so quick. Her smile became even brighter. “Please follow me to the lounge on the second floor. I’ll wrap it for you. Do you have any ideas for the packaging?”
Shen Shuyu thought for a moment. “Just don’t make it too complicated.”
The young girl nodded. “Okay, please follow me.”
The second floor was a super luxurious lounge with many display cabinets. The jewelry in the display cabinets started at seven figures.
Shen Shuyu stopped in front of a pair of cufflinks. He remembered Shen Yisi having a pair of these. His gaze landed on the price of the cufflinks, silently counting the zeros behind it.
Ten thousand, hundred thousand…
A pair of exquisite, small cufflinks actually cost millions?!
Shen Shuyu carefully recalled Shen Yisi’s attitude toward those cufflinks.
En, he didn’t treat them with special importance either. He only wore them a few times, and when he took them off upon returning, he just placed them casually on the table.
Shen Shuyu sat back in his seat without a word. At this time, the System popped up.
Xiao Yi: [Master~ Are you buying it for Chi Yanxun?]
Shen Shuyu said: [Thinking too much. He’s not worthy.]
The System whimpered twice (Wuwuwu) and asked again: [Then Master, who do you want to give it to?]
[Who else could it be? My brother, of course.] Shen Shuyu leaned back on the comfortable sofa. [The first pot of gold earned here naturally goes to buying things for family.]
Xiao Yi fluctuated a few times, but still spoke carefully: [Master, how about picking one for Chi Yanxun too? After all, giving gifts counts as a plot point.]
Shen Shuyu rested his arm on the sofa. He said: [Give it to him, and he’ll throw it away. Why should I waste this money?]
Although, but still. The System turned into a puppy in Shen Shuyu’s mind and rolled around several times, protesting silently against Shen Shuyu’s words.
Shen Shuyu ignored it. Just then, the staff member who went to wrap the gift returned. The young girl walked over smilingly carrying a bag, then opened the gift box in front of him. Inside, besides the brooch he fancied, there was a small gift box.
The young girl explained, “This is a gift from our store. We hope you accept it.”
The gift was also a brooch, but it was hand-woven with thread in the shape of a sunflower. Looking closely, they used melee diamonds to replace the seeds in the sunflower. It looked quite dazzling under the light.
Shen Shuyu was very satisfied. He said, “Thank you.”
The young girl’s face was red. “We look forward to your next visit!”
Shen Shuyu left the mall humming a little tune carrying the gift. Walking out of the mall, he originally wanted to go directly to the bar where Wen Jiafei worked, but carrying a gift seemed inconvenient. After thinking for a moment, Shen Shuyu decided to go home first.
Gifts should naturally be given to his brother with the fastest speed!
But it was a pity his brother wasn’t home at all. Hearing from the domestic helper, his brother came back, changed into a suit, and went out again. He must have rushed back to work.
Shen Shuyu opened the gift box, pursed his lips, and had to leave it in his bedroom first. Then he casually stuffed the other red velvet box into his pocket. The System insisted he give a gift to Chi Yanxun. The gift in his bosom was highly likely to be thrown into the trash can.
But the System didn’t believe it. The System said the Protagonist Gong was still relatively decent.
Shen Shuyu couldn’t change the System’s mind, so he could only stuff the gift into his pocket. Later, he would let the System see properly!
Who was right and who was wrong!
Shen Shuyu had the System search for Chi Yanxun’s location and found he was in a private clubhouse not far from where Wen Jiafei worked.
Shen Shuyu didn’t ask the driver to drive him. He hailed a car, preparing to find Chi Yanxun first.
When he arrived at the location, the System made a sound again: [In five minutes and three seconds, the Protagonist Gong will walk out from inside with his friends. Go for it, Master! For our beautiful future life! O up to him! (Go up to him)]
…What is ‘O up to him’.
Shen Shuyu couldn’t help complaining: [Weren’t you dormant? What kind of messy things did you learn?]
Ever since the Main Brain promised not to electrocute Shen Shuyu randomly, the System’s dormancy periods had become longer. Sometimes it wouldn’t come out even when called. Unexpectedly, during dormancy, it learned new lingo.
The System revealed a smiley face. It dared not tell Shen Shuyu that during its last update, it accidentally saved a few passionate and spicy novels. It said it was dormant, but actually, it was secretly reading carefully.
It! Was a diligent and studious System! In the future, it would tell everything it learned in its life to its beloved Master!
Hehe!
Shen Shuyu’s brain was full of garbled code. He shook his head, not knowing what tricks the System was up to again.
However, he glanced at his watch. Chi Yanxun would come out in five minutes. He looked around. This clubhouse was relatively hidden, with few pedestrians on the roadside, only diligent security guards at the entrance.
Shen Shuyu couldn’t be bothered to go in. Anyway, he would leave after giving the gift; it wouldn’t take much time.
Five minutes passed very quickly. Soon, Shen Shuyu saw Chi Yanxun coming out surrounded by other friends. He had changed into casual clothes. Not knowing what they were saying, Chi Yanxun had a rare look of relaxation on his face.
However, that relaxation vanished instantly the moment he saw Shen Shuyu.
This face-changing was really fast.
Chi Yanxun hated him, and he didn’t like Chi Yanxun. Shen Shuyu felt the System and the Main Brain were just forcing a sadistic romance between two unwilling people; it was meaningless.
But meaningless or not, the things that needed to be done still had to be done.
Shen Shuyu immediately put on a smile and walked over quickly. “Yanxun Gege!”
The others also knew Chi Yanxun was constantly chased by the Shen family’s Little Young Master. Seeing Shen Shuyu arrive, everyone unconsciously moved a little further away from Chi Yanxun, deeply afraid of being affected.
Chi Yanxun frowned. “How did you know I was here?”
Shen Shuyu said, “Guess.”
Chi Yanxun’s gaze swept over the group of people behind him. They all looked at the sky or the ground, putting on an air of ‘this has nothing to do with me.’
Shen Shuyu efficiently took out the velvet box from his pocket. He said, “Yanxun Gege, this is a gift I bought for you. I hope you can accept it. Bought it with my bonus.”
He spent a large sum in the store. This brooch could be considered paid for by him.
Shen Shuyu handed the velvet box over righteously, his eyes sparkling, seeming to look forward to Chi Yanxun accepting it.
Everyone’s gaze fell on the two of them. Someone even secretly took out a phone to take pictures. Usually, Chi Yanxun would have discovered and stopped it long ago, but Chi Yanxun couldn’t care less about that right now.
His gaze fell on the gift box Shen Shuyu handed over, but what came to his mind were Shen Xili’s words.
‘Since you don’t like him, why not refuse decisively?’
He pressed his lips together tightly. He said, “Shen Shuyu, I don’t know what gave you the illusion that I’m easy to talk to.”
Shen Shuyu didn’t understand what he meant, but saw Chi Yanxun reach out and take his gift box.
A trace of confusion flashed in Shen Shuyu’s eyes. Before a look of joy could appear on his face, he saw Chi Yanxun didn’t open the velvet box at all. With a toss of his hand, the velvet box drew a parabola in the air and finally landed accurately in a trash can not far away.
Shen Shuyu raised an eyebrow almost imperceptibly: Oh! (Uh-oh!/Whoops!)
