Peninsula Platinum Era

Chapter 185 Praising and belittling Zhang Yuanying

"Go home? Are you going back to your own home?"

An An grumbled unhappily. As usual, this awkwardness between the twin towers would last for a few more days. At least An Gou Gou felt that he couldn't forgive Xiao Yuan for the next few days.

However, Chen Shijun also promised to treat her to a big meal when he had some free time, so he would forgive her after the meal. It was reasonable for Xiaoyuan's brother to repay her debt.

Of course, it's also because I haven't grown up yet. If I really grow up and things change, then the two families will become one family. Then there's no need to talk about forgiveness or not. We'll still be best friends for life.

Yuan Ying naturally couldn't hear the crickets chirping behind An Gou. Although it was a bit wrong to deceive her, it was because this guy always said things that annoyed her.

But I don't want to think about these things anymore. Anyway, I've managed to hog Chen Shijun's birthday today. Little did I know that there was a woman more than ten years older than me sulking at this moment, otherwise she would have jumped for joy.

"Heh heh! That idiot Zhao Meiyan, what can she possibly use to fight me? She's utterly ungrateful."

I put the cake on the table. I didn't expect that there was no birthday atmosphere at all in this oppa's house. It was so unromantic.

"Okay, okay, I haven't had much to do these past few days. I miss Nuna too."

While bending over to take off his shoes and making a phone call, Chen Shijun didn't look up. With his head down, he bumped his head on the little girl's round belly. The little girl cried out and sat down on the ground with a thud, which startled the man so much that he quickly hung up the phone.

"What are you doing, girl? Are you trying to scare oppa?!"

Chen Shijun quickly helped his sister, who was clutching her stomach and looking miserable. However, he didn't blame himself; it was her fault for blocking his way, which was clearly an attempt to stage an accident.

"I was just trying to surprise you! How could you say that to me? I'm angry, I'm really angry."

Although she said she was angry, she didn't seem angry at all. Instead, she pulled Chen Shijun to the dining table. The large cake looked simple, but it was more in line with the man's usual aesthetic.

"Just buy a smaller one, we can't finish this one."

Chen Shijun is so-so when it comes to sweets; he neither likes nor dislikes them. But Xiaoyuan, as an idol, doesn't eat much either. Together, they just get a taste.

"Oppa has so much money, why are you worried about wasting it? Besides, I've earned a lot of money too. Since we're celebrating, we should enjoy it to the fullest."

Xiaoyuan took out two gift boxes, explaining that one was a gift from her and the other was given to her by An Youzhen, who asked her to pass it on to Chen Shijun when she had time. She asked Xiaoyuan to guess which one was her sister's true gift.

"Let me see! Let me take a close look and see which one truly reflects my sister Yuan Ying's heart."

Chen Shijun was in a good mood and hadn't mentioned Zhao Meiyan to Yuan Ying yet, partly because the girl had just used a staged accident to gain the upper hand.

My gaze lingered between the two gift boxes, one wrapped in elegant silver wrapping paper and tied with a fluffy satin ribbon bow.

The other was a simple kraft paper box, tied only with hemp rope, which looked much simpler. Chen Shijun thought about it and realized that although Yuan Ying had always liked to act cool, he was actually the simplest person who disliked trouble.

Therefore, in conclusion, the gift wrapped in kraft paper was probably given by Xiaoyuan. In life, she always likes to simplify things, whether it's clothing or anything else.

"This flashy thing is obviously Ahn Yoo-jin's. Our Xiao Yuan wouldn't be all show and no substance, right, Xiao Yuan... Xiao Yuan?"

Chen Shijun felt a little embarrassed. Looking at the guy's expression, he knew he had messed up, since the judgment was based on his own preconceived notions.

"No, no! I specially made a beautiful box, why would I use such a tacky one?"

Xiao Yuan snatched the kraft paper box away and handed the beautifully packaged box to Chen Shijun, telling him to open it himself. The man could only smile wryly and get to work.

Inside is another sports-style watch, quite different from last year's, but this guy really spared no expense.

The young girl wanted to give Chen Shijun a watch every year, so that he could wear the watch she gave him on every occasion, always showing his affection on his wrist.

Chen Shijun silently took off his wristwatch and replaced it with the gift Yuan Ying had given him. Looking at the little guy's slightly wrinkled face, he couldn't help but reach out and pinch his cheek. Remembering what An An had told him, he hadn't expected her to trick that big dog. If You Zhen hadn't had a direct channel to communicate with him, he might have actually fallen for her trick.

"It's so beautiful, I love it. I'll wear it on casual occasions from now on. But you shouldn't waste money like that."

Chen Shijun himself is not a person who is resistant to luxury goods, and he does not object to girls having a higher level of material desires if conditions permit.

"I didn't spend money recklessly. This is all my own private savings."

When Yuan Ying saw that Chen Shijun seemed very happy and pleased, she couldn't help but smile. However, she was also very curious about what gift An Youzhen had given the man. The box she had just held in her hand felt light and seemed to have no weight.

Chen Shijun naturally knew that he would have a dinner with Youzhen later, but he planned to postpone the dinner until after the New Year in order to downplay the competitive nature of the two girls.

What Yuan Ying brought this time was just a feint; You Zhen claimed to have prepared something else.

"Look at this guy, all he knows is how to use transparent tape to stick boxes, unlike me who personally tied a bow for you."

Yuan Ying's skill in flattering the powerful and belittling the weak was truly remarkable. She took a bite of cake with a fork and put it in her mouth, the sweet taste making her squint her eyes.

"This is just their kind intention; you shouldn't say that."

Inside was a very conservative dark-colored tie, the silk texture of which felt very nice to the touch. Chen Shijun thought that this girl was thoughtful.

"Hehe, Ahn Yoo-jin is sensible; she knows not to steal my thunder."

Yuan Ying was very satisfied with her older sister's behavior, but thinking about it, it was normal. Under normal circumstances, gifts from friends who are not particularly close are very insignificant.

As the knife sliced ​​into the cream layer, Yuan Ying had already turned off the lights, and the flickering candlelight created a rather mysterious atmosphere.

"Why don't we invite Zhenying over to eat with us? She sent over her gift yesterday. She seems to be busy with exams or something lately. Are college students really that busy?"

Chen Shijun also talked with Zhenying. The contract that this younger sister signed with Starship Company was also very ordinary. It can be said that it was entirely to bind Yuanying.

In this situation, if Won-young becomes indispensable, then Jin-young will also get a little bit of a chance, but it is unlikely that she will get a lot of resources.

Perhaps Chen Shijun could find her some fun things to do; if not, she'll just have to work for him.

In fact, Jin-young had a clear understanding of her own acting career and obviously knew that she did not have the necessary conditions to become a big star.

Although she is quite pretty, she is not outstanding in the entertainment industry where beauties abound, and conversely, she has not put in much effort to hone her acting skills.

"She must have already eaten. It's so late, so let's not bother her anymore."

Yuan Ying quickly waved her hands, creating a scene reminiscent of a candlelight dinner. What would it look like if someone else came? Not even her own sister.

"Have you eaten yet? It's not that late, and besides, what's wrong with having some cake?"

Chen Shijun wanted to tease this guy, but his phone kept ringing. Since daytime, he had received many congratulatory text messages, which had been ringing on and off without stopping.

"Shijun, I won't disturb you and Yuanying's brother-sister relationship today. Please give her my regards."

Looking at the message sent by Eun-chae on the screen, Chen Shijun thought, "This is what a sensible and good woman looks like. She knows her place and value very well. To a certain extent, she has become my safe haven."

"What! That's not what you said to me back then. Now you're acting all innocent and pure in front of me. What a strange woman."

Thinking of that formidable old woman, Yuan Ying was clearly not as confident as she was with Mei Yan, and could only turn her head and complain quietly.
