Chapter 142: I'm still quite hard to catch up with, brother needs to work harder!
"fine."
Seeing the young girl's concern for him, Shang Shiyan smiled slightly and gently comforted her.
"oh."
Confirming that he hadn't suffered any new injuries, Pei Jinwu's heart, which had been hanging in suspense, slowly settled down.
"Little sister."
Song Mingji stood to the side, his brows furrowed, and said resentfully, "You've gone astray by focusing on the wrong thing. Your brother is injured too."
"..."
Pei Jinwu looked at Song Mingji, whose face was gloomy, opened her schoolbag, and took out a bottle of medicine: "It works very well. It will be fine after applying it for two days."
Although Song Mingji was injured, Shang Shiyan had restrained his strength, and he was only a little swollen.
The inkstones of the Shang Dynasty are different...
His two older brothers attacked him with deadly force; not only was his cheek bruised and swollen, but his lip was also cut.
I almost got disfigured.
"Thank you, little sister." Song Mingji accepted it with a smile on her face.
They only gave it to him, not to Shang Shiyan.
This means that in her heart, her brother is more important than anyone else.
"We'll discuss the racing association later," Song Mingji said. "You've just finished class and you must be tired. Go home with your brothers first."
go home?
Upon hearing this, Pei Jinwu's relaxed brows furrowed again, and her delicate eyes looked at Shang Shiyan.
His cheeks were puffed out, and he remained silent, clearly angry.
Did he agree?
"Your two older brothers said they want to take you home to live." Shang Shiyan parted his thin lips, slowly shifting the blame.
"yes."
Song Mingji replied earnestly, "Before, it was because Jiang Jibai was busy with work and didn't have time to take care of you. But your brother has time, and your brother can take care of you."
"..."
Pei Jinwu remained silent, her expression displeased.
"Let's go, your assistant will pick up your luggage later."
Song Mingji confidently reached out to take his sister's hand, but she dodged it.
"Fog..."
Song Mingji's hand froze in mid-air, staring at Pei Jinwu with a hurt expression.
What's the meaning?
Between Shang Shiyan and her two older brothers, will she choose Shang Shiyan?
"Give me some more time." Pei Jinwu moved her pink lips, her voice muffled: "I'm used to my current pace of life. I need to readjust to living with you all."
"I have poor adaptability, and I'm not in good condition if I don't get enough rest. When I'm not in good condition, it affects my exam performance."
"Will it affect the exam?"
Song Mingji frowned and said in a deep voice, "Didn't Jiang Jibai say that you were a top student and got full marks in all subjects?"
"Um."
When her excuse was exposed, Pei Jinwu's expression changed slightly, but she quickly calmed down and made up a lie: "If I don't sleep well, I won't get a perfect score."
"..."
Song Mingji remained silent, feeling like his sister was talking nonsense.
“Wuwu doesn’t want to leave, let’s listen to her,” Jiang Jibai stepped forward and said softly.
Although the two men were her brothers, they acted like strangers when they first met.
It's clear that Shang Shiyan takes good care of Wuwu, and Wuwu enjoys being with him.
Forcing her to come home would only damage the relationship between the siblings.
not to mention--
He trusted Shang Shiyan's character.
I said I wouldn't do anything inappropriate, and I definitely won't.
At least, let's wait for Wuwu's exam first.
As for the future...
My sister is an adult and has the right to make her own choices.
As long as she is happy, her brother will respect and bless her.
"do you agree?"
Song Mingji wanted to object, but seeing Jiang Jibai's reassuring gaze, he ultimately said nothing.
He finally understood; Shang Shiyan was just deceiving the young girl.
How could someone as dignified as God J be so easily fooled?
The old man's methods were so clever that he easily won over his sister's heart.
“Okay.” Song Mingji took a deep breath and said earnestly, “If you want to stay, then stay. If you are bullied or unhappy, tell me, and I will stand up for you.”
"Um."
Pei Jinwu nodded slightly and silently retreated to Shang Shiyan's side.
"This is a gift from your brother to you as we first meet."
Song Mingji handed Pei Jinwu the things his assistant had urgently brought, his eyes reddening: "From now on, whatever you like, I'll buy it for you."
I heard that my sister had a very miserable life for the first eighteen years of her life.
He will try his best to make up for it in the days to come.
"Thanks."
Pei Jinwu took it, her brow furrowing slightly, and added, "Thank you, brother."
It feels good to have an older brother, but she has been lonely for fifteen years and needs time to adjust.
"There will be a mock exam next week, so don't put too much pressure on yourself. It's okay if you don't do well."
Jiang Jibai chimed in, not wanting his sister to be too tired.
"No pressure."
Pei Jinwu pursed her lips and said casually.
It's just a matter of picking up a pen, isn't it?
"That's fine then."
Jiang Jibai and Song Mingji looked increasingly grim as they strode away.
I was afraid to stay any longer.
Seeing the little cabbage that had been trampled away, he couldn't help but scold Shang Shiyan.
——
Inside the sports car.
Shang Shiyan sat in the back seat, a faint smile on his handsome face.
"What are you laughing at?"
Pei Jinwu sat beside him, wiping his injured lip with medicine, her expression awkward yet adorable.
"I'm happy that Wuwu chose me." Shang Shiyan curled his lips and said in a low, husky voice, "This beating I took today wasn't for nothing."
It wasn't all for nothing.
"oh."
Pei Jinwu raised an eyebrow, not denying it, "What did you say to my brother?"
They actually agreed to stay.
"I said..."
Shang Shiyan leaned down slightly to make it easier for the girl to operate. His dark eyes were filled with emotion as he gazed deeply at her face and slowly said, "This is the first time in my life that I've liked someone with the intention of getting married."
Hearing the sound.
Pei Jinwu's fingers trembled slightly as she lifted her eyelids, meeting the man's deep, swirling black eyes. Her heart pounded.
"I also said..."
Shang Shiyan smiled, his magnetic voice carrying a seductive undertone, "I will pamper her, protect her, and respect her. After she graduates, I will seriously pursue her."
"oh……"
Pei Jinwu twirled a cotton swab, casually parted her lips, and chuckled softly, "Can't you catch me?"
"fine."
Shang Shiyan raised his hand and gently brushed away the stray hairs from the girl's forehead, his voice lazy and husky: "Brother is shameless. If I can't win her over, I'll keep chasing until I do."
"Tsk."
After applying the medicine, Pei Jinwu threw the cotton swab into the trash bag, pressed her fingers against the man's chest with slight pressure, and a bright and deep smile spread across her delicate and handsome face. "You're quite persistent..."
"But I'm quite hard to win over, brother, you need to work harder."
Yes, it will.
Shang Shiyan gave a low, enchanting laugh that captivated all.
"..."
Pei Jinwu was lost in thought for a few seconds before looking out the window, her cheeks slightly flushed.
Sigh.
She finally understood the meaning of the phrase "bringing disaster to the country and the people".
Sometimes, you really can't blame others.
Handsome men really can make people feel happy and unable to resist falling for them...
If Shang Shiyan takes good care of his face, his success rate in winning her over is...
It's quite tall, isn't it?
"Miss Pei, these are your things."
Seeing Pei Jinwu finish applying the medicine, Feng Zhi, who had been forced to witness their public display of affection, dared to speak cautiously.
"?"
Pei Jinwu took the box and found it somewhat familiar.
Okay.
It turns out that Song Mingji's studio said that he was very arrogant and only wanted that nouveau riche who was expensive.
"J.Five's stuff?"
Shang Shiyan curled his lips and stared meaningfully at Pei Jinwu, saying with a half-smile, "Wuwu and J.Five are truly destined for each other."
"Right?"
Pei Jinwu blinked, feigning composure.
“I also quite like J.Five’s products.” Shang Shiyan smiled and continued, “So the Shang Group plans to buy out all of J.Five’s new products this season.”
Buyout of the entire company?
By a rough estimate, her new product will cost at least nine figures.
"..."
Pei Jinwu looked at Shang Shiyan with a deep gaze.
"By the way," Shang Shiyan raised an eyebrow and asked in a hoarse voice, "At the last Madam's birthday banquet, I remember you also gave her something from her studio."
"As far as I know, that piece of jewelry you gave me was quite hard to buy. Could it be that Wuwu knows someone at J.Five Studio?"
"Um?"
Pei Jinwu moved her lips, pondering how to brush him off.
The cell phone suddenly rang.
"Boss, Shang Shiyan actually offered nine figures to buy our new product."
The design director was incredibly excited. "He seems to really like your designs. He's been very insistent on having them."
"How about you raise the price and squeeze more money out of us? Last time, tens of millions was too little!"
"Boss?"
Not hearing Pei Jinwu speak, the design director asked in confusion.
"..."
Pei Jinwu was naturally unable to make a sound, because she was dead.
That's fucking ridiculous.
I accidentally turned on the loudspeaker, and the director's words echoed throughout the entire carriage.
"..."
"..."
Shang Shiyan, Feng Xingfengzhi, and six other people stared intently at her.
"..."
Pei Jinwu felt awkward for a few seconds, silently hung up the phone, and calmly uttered a few words:
You've dialed the wrong number.
——
good evening.
Updates are available during the day.
