Chapter 81 Si Yao Really Likes You

"Brother Su, why are you so sure that Si Yao will fight to protect me?"

How should I put it, maybe it’s just a man’s intuition?

Su Yan pulled up a bitter smile at the corner of his lips. Although he didn't want to admit it, he still said it.

"Because I can see that Si Yao really likes you."

In the copy of the Dream Kingdom, he guessed that Si Yao should have been able to leave the copy.

But for some reason, he was willing to stay in the copy for her.

He had a hunch that Si Yao did it on purpose.

Just because he has water-related abilities, it is easy for him to temporarily use his abilities to tamper with the pure water on the eucalyptus leaves.

But the question is, why did he choose to stay in the copy when he could leave?

Apart from truly liking her and wanting to stay in the copy to accompany Zhen Jinli, he couldn't think of any other possibility.

Zhen Jinli didn’t think as much as Su Yan did. She sent a helpless emoticon.

"That's just lust at best, right?"

In order to let Zhen Jinli feel at ease to enter the dungeon with Si Yao, Su Yan sent a message to persuade her.

"Judging from the results of the last dungeon, the situation between Si Yao and you should be that you either leave the dungeon alive together, or stay in the dungeon together."

"In the end, you and he left the dungeon safely. This is the proof."

"Xiao Li, I think Si Yao will try his best to protect you. I'll feel more at ease with him around."

Zhen Jinli looked at the message sent by Su Yan in silence, pondered for a moment, and finally compromised.

"Okay, then I'll enter the dungeon with Si Yao."

Anyway, there will be that bastard Li Zhen around, so Si Yao shouldn't be able to do anything to her.

Zhen Jinli remembered that she still had to prepare a gift for Li Zhen, so she asked Butler Sai to help her go to the nearest shopping mall to pick out a pair of the most popular and trendy sneakers, size 37.

She was afraid it would be too late to buy it online, after all, it would take time for the courier to deliver it, but she would be entering the game the day after tomorrow.

"Number 37?" Butler Sai was a little confused and then reminded her.

"Master, you wear size 43 shoes. Are you sure you didn't buy the wrong one?"

Zhen Jinli then remembered that in the eyes of Butler Sai, she was still Su Yan's girlfriend, and he must have thought that she bought the shoes as a gift for Su Yan.

After all, it was Brother Su who took her in and protected her, so it was only right that he should give her a gift.

So if I want to give a gift to Brother Su, should I also prepare a gift for Jiuyi?

Zhen Jinli continued, "Then buy me a pair of size 43 brogues, a pair of size 37 sneakers, and a size M black windbreaker. It should be something I can wear if I'm about 1.8 meters tall."

After telling Butler Sai her approximate desired price, Zhen Jinli transferred him 30,000 yuan and told him that she would make up the difference if the amount was not enough.

Butler Sai smiled and said, "No need. I have an internal employee shopping card. I can buy things at the internal price in the mall opened by the Su family. I still have money left."

Zhen Jinli thought for a moment and said, "My nephew Li Zhen will come over to play the game with me the day after tomorrow. If there are any left, you can buy some snacks."

***

In the evening, Butler Sai came back with what Zhen Jinli wanted.

Si Yao looked down from the second floor and saw Zhen Jinli holding a few things in her hands. He couldn't help but feel curious. Why did she suddenly feel like shopping?

What happened next made Si Yao feel that things were not simple.

"Jiuyi, I bought a windbreaker for you. Come over and try it on to see if it fits you."

Chen Ji was suddenly flattered when he received the gift from Zhen Jinli.

"Why do you suddenly want to give me a gift?"

Even if he really wants to give a gift, he should be the one giving it to her.

After all, in the dream kingdom, it was she who saved him from the dream.

Zhen Jinli explained: "Oh, didn't you say that I can also use the clothes and cosmetics in the space? This windbreaker is my return gift to you~"

Seeing Chen Ji wearing the well-cut black windbreaker, Zhen Jinli's eyes revealed a look of amazement, and she admired him sincerely.

"Wow, Jiuyi, this windbreaker looks so good on you."

This delicate balance between a mature man and a youthful look, set off by the black trench coat, adds a touch of fashion and elegance.

Zhen Jinli suddenly felt like she was looking at a male model on a shopping mall poster, and he looked particularly high-end.

"Jiuyi, don't move. I'll take a picture of you."

It’s so handsome, Jiuyi is definitely a natural clothes hanger.

Seeing Zhen Jinli happily taking pictures of Jiuyi on the first floor, Si Yao couldn't help but feel jealous again.

After a while, Su Yan came out of the room wearing casual home clothes and holding a cup of coffee.

Zhen Jinli glanced at him and quickly called him from the first floor.

"Brother Su, come down quickly, I bought you a gift!"

Su Yan came down from the third floor, and Zhen Jinli handed him the shoe box with both hands with a smile.

"Come on, try it on and see if it fits."

The shoe size was told by the butler Sai, and the shoes were also bought with the help of the butler Sai. How could they not fit?

After Su Yan tried on the shoes, Zhen Jinli came over and asked.

"How is it? Does it fit? Is it comfortable to wear?"

Su Yan felt it and nodded, "Yeah, very comfortable."

"That's good. Looks like there's no need to return or exchange it."

Zhen Jinli smiled with satisfaction and said, "Shoes are worn on your feet, so they have to be comfortable for you."

As if these words touched a sensitive nerve somewhere in his heart, Su Yan lowered his eyes and looked at the shoes on his feet thoughtfully.

Even shoes must be comfortable.

What’s more, this is your significant other who you will be with for a long time in the future?

Su Yan's eyes narrowed slightly, and he gradually clenched his hands at his sides. As if he had made some kind of decision, he stood up and returned to his room.

At this moment, Si Yao was still on the second floor, waiting leisurely for Zhen Jinli to call him down.

In his opinion, since Zhen Jinli had prepared gifts for Su Yan and Jiu Yi, the remaining box must be a gift for him.

Zhen Jinli put all the snacks in the dining room, then ran upstairs with the shoe box in her arms.

Si Yao was about to reach out to take the box, but -

She turned a corner with the shoebox in her arms and ran straight up to the third floor.

Pah.

Si Yao's boyish heart, full of expectations, was instantly shattered.

That gift is not for him?

After realizing what was happening, someone's face suddenly became extremely ugly.

He followed Zhen Jinli up to the third floor, knocked on her door and asked.

"Whose gift is the box in your hand for?"

Zhen Jinli suddenly realized, "Oh, that one you're talking about. It's for my nephew Li Zhen. He'll come over the day after tomorrow and join us in the game."

Si Yao's face was so gloomy that water seemed to be dripping out of it.

"So, you didn't prepare any gift for me?"

Si Yao: I feel like my status as the legitimate male lead is no longer secure. The female lead gives gifts to other men but not to me!

Nanfeng: You are not the main male lead, you are the secondary male lead, at most half the male lead.

Si Yao: (╥╯^╰╥)

Here’s a short paragraph:

Zhen Jinli facing Su Ge and Jiu Yi: I am a master of keeping things balanced.

Zhen Jinli facing Si Yao: I'd better pour out the water.
