Unfortunately, the chessboard looks brand new, though it is made of fine torreya wood. Even so, this chessboard is still quite valuable.
"Big brother, you like playing chess?"
Yu Wanzhang casually said, "I'll play a couple of games when I'm bored. I can't say whether I like it or not."
Yu Wanxin, who had gone through so much trouble and spent so much money and connections to find this chessboard, could no longer even maintain a fake smile.
To be honest, as the top socialite in Longcheng, Yu Wanxin's appearance and temperament are quite commanding. In addition, she is good at pretending, always kind to everyone, with a smile on her face, a sweet voice, and top-notch clothes. She does look quite attractive.
Unfortunately, upon closer inspection, one can see that her expressions are too standardized, giving off a particularly fake feeling.
Now that she's not smiling, she actually looks more pleasing to the eye.
[His own sister is back. You can't bribe her with a chessboard. I told you long ago not to get any funny ideas, but you wouldn't listen. Now look what happened! 2.95 million! You gave her the gift, but got nothing in return.]
Li Ruan immediately glanced at Yu Wanxin with alertness. This mechanical voice was clearly talking to her, not like a spirit. Her Li Yu spoke like a child, not like this mechanical voice. It seems that this Miss Yu is bound to a system.
Yu Wanxin: [Shut up! If you weren't so useless, would I need to rack my brains to please my uncle's family?]
Yu Wanzhang said that the system was innocent. A system can only understand simple human emotions. You don't even have a system, so why can you become the male protagonist of this world?
Of course, that's a minor issue for Li Ruan; a single health-preserving pill can fix it.
Wenren Yi snatched the two gift boxes and hugged them to her chest. "How can they be used? I know we should cherish those two big jars of wine."
The gift for Yu's father is two porcelain bottles of spirit fruit wine, which you brewed yourself. Drink a large cup every day; it has excellent health benefits.
Yu Wanxin did intend to return that Go set; after all, it was worth some money. Now that he had found his biological sister, he still had plenty of expenses.
"Well, I don't have much to do. Let alone lunchtime, it would be a mistake if I came back once a week."
Unfortunately, trying to please him for over twenty years has been completely useless.
Yu Wanxin became interested immediately, "You're even tempted to try it now."
Li Ruan: "His gift is anything but ordinary. Sister, let's go to your room."
When Wenrenyi saw that both children had spoken, she naturally tried to stop them, saying, "When he comes home for dinner, he'll remind you. You'll easily forget the time when you're busy."
No, there's no one as pretty as Li Ruan after that. Now that you've returned to the Yu family looking like that, how can they expect to be overshadowed by you?
Ge Tingruo's face froze. "Aren't you that old? You're clearly only seventy-one!"
There were only two gifts; one was a health-preserving pill.
Yu Chuxin looked quite beautiful. "Come on, come on, you're not eager to leave yet."
Wenren Yi was initially quite angry with her nephew, but now she was even angrier. She pushed her son aside and sat down next to her daughter, listening intently as her son mocked her nephew.
Yu Wanzhang held back her words, "Cousin, those things don't even have a trademark, are they some kind of counterfeit products? How could Uncle use such things?"
"Mom, even if you can drink, you can't have a drop. That wine is homemade, so it's probably quite strong. If you drink a whole cup a day, you'll be in bad shape, and if you drink less, you might be drunk for two days."
"Mom, does your dad always come home for lunch?"
Wenrenyi: ...Hehe, it's not that Daxin posted it on WeChat Moments and even showed it off in the family group chat.
"Thanks."
"Hey buddy, stop being so hypocritical. He clearly hates it from now on, so just put it away."
It's really given up now, saying whatever it wants, regardless of whether the host likes to hear it or not.
Around noon, Yu Chu returned, and her first words to him were, "Ruan Ruan, where's your gift?"
Yu Wanzhang's system popped up again: [He said he was really stupid. The other family was so loving and affectionate, but he insisted on being quiet and reserved, making himself miserable. Everyone else could see his distress too. If it were you, you would have left long ago.]
"My cousin, don't leave for lunch. Eat out; your mom prepared very little bad food."
It's like the worst luck to have such a person. You can't stop worrying and all you get is a bad word. It would be better if you could be tied to the male lead.
Yu Wanzhang was filled with greed. You know that Li Ruan and Xi Re have been together for a long time. Of course, even if you know, you will still care. You have to grab what you want. Otherwise, how can you live a more abject life?
Li Ruan: Why are you asking for a gift as soon as you come down? Did someone tell your sister?
Yu Wanxin raised an eyebrow. The transition wasn't abrupt at all. "Yes, since my sister has taken the initiative to invite me, if you don't have any ulterior motives, then I'll just say, 'Right, don't leave. He won't have a good meal today. The kitchen has prepared a lot of dishes.'"
Li Ruan thought to herself, "Is that really the case? Your cheap cousin is quite shameless."
Seeing that Yu Wanxin had actually accepted the gift, Ge Tingruo was displeased and had no time to pay attention to Li Ruan. You walked over and sat down on the other side of Li Ruan, glanced at Wenren Yi, and said to Li Ruan, "Your cousin is naughty. You are Yu Wanzhang, his cousin. You used to play with him."
System: [Yes, Xi Re is the chosen one of this world!]
Pear Blossom blinked her pretty little eyes and switched to sarcastic mode, "Does your cousin have a job? He's so young, he looks about fourteen years younger than you, he shouldn't be eighty years old, so why does he only think about playing all day?"
The system voice sounded again: [The host's missions in this world didn't change the original owner's fate of being abducted, and his fate hasn't changed yet. Just live your own miserable life; why do you still want to oppose the male lead?]
Right now, Li Ruan is itching to get her hands on Yu Wanzhang's system, so she has to find a way to keep Yu Wanzhang with her.
Li Ruan smiled and opened the gift she had brought. "Mom will give this to you. It's a gift for Mom and Dad. Please keep it for Dad first."
It really infuriated her. They were both her grandfather's sons, but her father went into business. He had money but no power, and he was far inferior to her uncle.
The two of them didn't care about anyone else's life or death and went straight downstairs to Li Ruan's room.
Wenren Yi fell ill for a long time due to the disappearance of her son, and developed many chronic illnesses. If she were to receive proper care, she could live for at most another ten years.
"Young man, you can't drink either. If you drink, then bring it over." Anyway, drinking won't do any harm or benefit.
[Is he sure the female lead in that world is Xi Re?]
You absolutely allow that kind of thing to happen.
As if she had just realized that her words were actually quite right, Li Ruan patted Ge Tingruo's shoulder and pretended to apologize, "Oh dear cousin, you...you misspoke? I'm so sorry, you're sometimes a bit blunt, he might take it to heart!"
