Chapter 127 Mutual Favorite
"Okay, then you wait patiently in the car. Call me if anything happens." Ji Yushi nodded, then went inside to pick up the person.
Shen Wantang nodded, staring blankly at his back. She didn't know what she was thinking; her mind was just blank.
[Host, you've been slacking off lately; your merit points haven't increased for several days.]
"Didn't you see I'm injured? I'm wounded now."
[Yes, yes, you're injured, rest for a few more days! ˉ\_(ツ)_/ˉ]
[Yeah, if I don't rest for a few more days... wait, my injury this time also saved a lot of people, right?]
[I indirectly saved them, so I should at least get some merit points!]
[...]
I'll get angry if you don't give me more merit points today!
[...]
Don't play dead with me!
[...]
【Get lost! 】
[Congratulations, host! Your merit points have increased by 500!]
That's more like it.
While Shen Wantang was chatting with the system, she saw two tall men walking towards her in the distance, one of whom was wearing a suit. Wasn't that her jerk husband?
But why does the man next to him look so familiar?
No, he looks really familiar. Isn't this the man she met when she went shopping for clothes?
"You're Ji Yushi's cousin?!" Shen Wantang was somewhat surprised.
"Oh! So you're my cousin-in-law!" Ji Jinghuai was also somewhat surprised. What a strange coincidence!
"You two know each other?" Ji Yushi frowned. How come he didn't know about this?
Ji Jinghuai shook his head slightly: "I don't know him. I met him once before in Gaoliu City."
"Yeah, back then I was going back to inherit the company, and when I went to the mall to choose a business suit, he gave me one of his outfits." Shen Wantang nodded. That's hardly what it means to know someone!
After all, she didn't even know his name.
Ji Yu nodded knowingly: "This is my cousin, Ji Jinghuai."
"Okay, my name is Shen Wantang. Let's talk in the car." Shen Wantang nodded. It seemed she would have to invite Ye Shi'an to her home for a few days.
After they got into the car, Ji Yushi drove towards home.
Shen Wantang suddenly remembered: "Hey, cousin, were you buying gifts in Gaoliu City last time? Or what?"
[Wait a minute, the last time he bought women's clothing? Who was it for?! Could it be some other woman?!]
Ji Jinghuai raised an eyebrow: What other women?
Ji Yushi glanced in the rearview mirror and discovered that Ji Jinghuai could also hear Shen Wantang's thoughts!
Why is that? They can understand it all, but Ji Jinghuai is just a member of a collateral branch of the family!
"Yes, it's a gift, for a friend." Ji Jinghuai hesitated for a moment before nodding.
"Boyfriend or girlfriend?" Shen Wantang asked, puzzled, mainly out of genuine curiosity.
If Ji Jinghuai likes men, then there's nothing that can be done!
"A female...friend," Ji Jinghuai said after thinking for a moment. His cousin was still here! Couldn't they be a little more discreet?
"Ah...it must be a close female friend! Otherwise, why would I buy her a gift separately?" Shen Wantang smiled, her face calm and collected, but her heart was in turmoil!
【Oh dear! My An'an! Is it going to end before it even started?】
[Wait a minute! Ye Shi'an is so handsome, and has a great figure too. If Ji Jinghuai could still like other women under these circumstances, then he's blind!]
If this is true, I've decided that for An'an's sake, I won't play with this person anymore.
"It is indeed quite important." Ji Jinghuai smiled as he listened to her silent accusations in her heart.
"Okay! What's the girl's name?" Shen Wantang took a deep breath. Could it be that Ye Shi'an really has no chance?
"He's my best friend who I grew up with, his name is Ye Shi'an." Ji Jinghuai finished speaking slowly and then looked at Ji Yushi.
Seeing that Ji Yu didn't react, she silently breathed a sigh of relief.
When facing Ji Yushi, it was like seeing one's own parent.
"A gift you brought for Ye Shi'an?" Shen Wantang asked in surprise.
[This is great! I don't have to worry about anything anymore, this is for An'an!]
If An'an knew, wouldn't she be overjoyed?
"Hmm." Ji Jinghuai nodded slightly.
"That's not bad, young man!" Shen Wantang smiled and didn't ask any more questions.
Ji Yushi, who was standing to the side, smiled as he listened to their conversation.
He thought to himself: Could Shen Wantang be any more obvious?
They were practically asking her if she was dating Ye Shi'an.
We returned to the manor.
"You're back, kids!!" Li Nanxi came out of the garden when she heard the door open.
"Auntie," Ji Jinghuai called out sweetly.
"Hey! Jinghuai, how long are you planning to stay this time?" Li Nanxi stepped forward. Ji Jinghuai is really a good kid.
Ji Jinghuai smiled and said, "If there are no other issues, I might stay here for a long time."
"That's good, that's good! Your family can help you here. If it were too far away, we might not be able to help you in time." Li Nanxi pulled him down to sit.
"Yes, it's definitely more comfortable coming back." Ji Jinghuai nodded.
He travels to other places most of the year and rarely comes back.
So Li Nanxi kept chatting with him, while Ji Yushi and Shen Wantang listened and watched TV.
Suddenly remembering something, Shen Wantang took out her phone and sent a text message to Ye Shi'an, inviting her to come over to her house.
Ye Shi'an, who was buying a gift at the mall, received a text message. She took it out and looked at it, and she was puzzled.
What's going on?
Didn't Auntie just tell her to go? Could it be that Shen Wantang didn't know?
Although she was puzzled, she still replied: Okay, I'll be there soon.
She bought some exceptionally fresh, top-quality fruit, as well as bird's nest and other premium items—basically, everything was the best!
She spent several hundred dollars on just a little thing!
After finishing the shopping, Ye Shi'an drove to the manor. As soon as he got out of the car, he could faintly hear Li Nanxi's voice.
As I carried my things inside, I realized there were so many people in the house!
"Godmother, why did you call us here?" Ye Shi'an smiled and stepped forward. Just as she was about to sit down, she realized that the person next to her was actually the one she liked the most!
"Ji Jinghuai?! How did you get in? When did you get back?!" Ye Shi'an was shocked!
At the same time, I was also very happy, because this way the two of them could properly cultivate their relationship!
Hearing her voice, Ji Jinghuai felt just as happy.
"I just got back this morning. Have you been eating properly at home?" Ji Jinghuai said, placing his hand on her leg to check if she was cold and if she had lost weight.
Ye Shi'an froze: "Of course I ate properly, I'm not a three-year-old anymore!" She pouted.
Shen Wantang smiled as she watched the interaction between the two.
Actually, they both liked each other, but neither of them expressed their feelings.
