Jiang Jianian and Yu Jingchen shook hands briefly, almost a half-hearted shake, before letting go.
Ye Zhiwei knew that Jiang Jianian's emotional outburst was due to Yu Shishu's matter, but she didn't expect that Yu Shishu's brother would come directly to meet with Jiang Jianian.
Although it's unclear what Jiang Jianian is thinking right now, it's certainly not a pleasant experience.
Ye Zhiwei couldn't help but send a message to Ji Shuli: Where is Dad? Why are you and this Yu guy the only ones here? What's going on? Why didn't you say earlier that it was just you and him?
Ji Shuli didn't seem to be looking at her phone. Ye Zhiwei deliberately knocked a pen off the table and onto the floor. Then, as she squatted down to draw, she pushed Ji Shuli.
Ji Shuli looked under the table in confusion, and Ye Zhiwei immediately mouthed a reminder to him: Look at your phone.
Looking at your phone?
What kind of fancy stuff is this little girl up to now?
After pouring a cup of tea for Jiang Jianian and Ye Zhiwei, Ji Shuli picked up her phone to check.
That girl!
Ji Shuli: My uncle and the director of the Academic Affairs Office went to see the exhibition hall of an innovation and technology competition at Yanda University. This Yu guy is Yu Jingchen. Getting to know him might get you free desserts at his house in the future. It could be helpful for you. Getting to know him is not a bad thing.
No, from the moment Jiang Jianian showed his obvious displeasure, Ye Zhiwei felt that meeting Yu Jingchen was a bad thing. She could already feel an undercurrent of turmoil.
Ye Zhiwei secretly glanced at Jiang Jianian. The more composed Jiang Jianian was, the more she felt that this was the calm before the storm.
Ji Shuli had no idea what Ye Zhiwei was thinking. He smiled and said to Yu Jingchen, "Brother Yu, my cousin Ye Zhiwei is a loyal fan of your dessert hotel. The desserts at your shop are not cheap. I don't know how much money this little girl has spent."
Yu Jingchen smiled and said, "Then you're still a loyal fan of the Yu family?"
"That's right." Ji Shuli sensed the awkward atmosphere and, in an attempt to ease it, went along with Yu Jingchen's words: "It's rare to see each other, so as an elder, you should at least show some appreciation. How about giving my little cousin some kind of internal voucher? That wouldn't be too much of a gift, would it?"
It was just a joke, but Yu Jingchen seized on Ji Shuli's jest and probed with a smile, "Why are you calling me an elder? I feel like I'm about the same age as Zhiwei, there's no difference in generation! Besides, I'm a complete capitalist, how can someone from the exploitative class be generous? I don't have any internal coupons here, but if Zhiwei is interested, she can get to know my younger brother. He owns a considerable number of shares in the dessert hotel, and if Zhiwei flatters him, she might become the future owner of the dessert hotel—"
Ye Zhiwei: !!!
Yu Jingchen's words almost made Ye Zhiwei spit out the tea in her mouth.
She immediately looked at Jiang Jianian's face, then took a deep breath and said to Yu Jingchen, "Mr. Yu, you must be joking."
"What are you joking about?" Yu Jingchen continued with a smile, "You can get to know Shi Shu. He's a big director, has a clean romantic history, and is a bit shy, but these days girls all like the 'puppy-like' type, and our Shi Shu is quite good."
Ye Zhiwei chuckled dryly and said stiffly, "A 'little puppy' is a young boy. Director Yu is much older than me, he's definitely not a 'little puppy,' and 'little puppy' isn't my type either. Mr. Yu, please don't try to matchmake people up, it's quite embarrassing."
