Chapter 317 The Merchant's Triumph: Finally, a Little Girl Is Jealous of Him
"..."
Pei Jinwu sat up abruptly from the sofa.
fruit?
I'm not eating anymore.
game?
I'm not playing anymore.
Two clear, bright eyes stared straight at Shang Shiyan, and a layer of frost quickly covered her delicate cheeks.
It's obvious they're waiting for Shang Shiyan to explain.
If it's not clear...
Pei Jinwu looked at the fruit knife on the table; it was gleaming and must be very sharp.
One cut, two holes, no problem at all.
Are you jealous?
Shang Shiyan put down the fruit plate, reached out to touch the little girl's hand, and his face was beaming with joy.
He used to be the one who was jealous of her.
Who would have thought that a young girl would one day be jealous of herself?
Don't say it.
I felt a mix of relief and pride.
"Smack—"
Pei Jinwu dodged, slapping his hand away with a genuine expression of anger: "I...didn't...do...that!"
They refuted the argument even when they were not entirely right.
It was agreed from the beginning that there wouldn't be any other random people involved.
What about now?
Investing in an immortal team for a woman?
hehe.
She's such a joke!
"..."
The more she thought about it, the angrier she became. Afraid that she wouldn't be able to resist stabbing him with a knife, Pei Jinwu angrily prepared to leave.
Just as she stood up, her hand was suddenly grabbed by Shang Shiyan.
"It's none other than..."
Shang Shiyan smiled helplessly, and after composing himself, explained earnestly, "That woman is my mother."
"Your mother?"
Pei Jinwu's eyelashes trembled, and she blurted out, then realized her words were a bit off, and added, "Your mother?"
"Um."
Shang Shiyan pulled her into his arms, wrapped his arms around her slender body, rested his chin on her shoulder, and explained with a light laugh, "My mother is a fan of Demon."
"When Demon announced his temporary departure from the Undead Legion, my mom was sad for several days, and her eyes were swollen from crying."
"To please her, I signed the Immortals. I thought she would be even happier when Demon returns in the future."
"..."
Pei Jinwu had mixed feelings.
Mother?
She seemed to have never met Shang Shiyan's parents.
If it hadn't been mentioned suddenly, I would have almost suspected that he was... an orphan.
"I didn't expect this..."
Shang Shiyan squeezed the little girl's hand, his voice filled with a gentle smile, "You and my mother have the same idol, what a coincidence."
"..."
Pei Jinwu glanced at him, speechless.
Um.
It's quite a coincidence.
Not only is the idol the same.
Her idol is herself.
"My parents have been busy abroad due to their work. Now that they've finished dealing with their affairs, they're going back to China soon."
Shang Shiyan turned Pei Jinwu around to face him and asked affectionately, "How about I introduce you to them later?"
"..."
Pei Jinwu was even more confused and couldn't answer immediately.
How long has it been since they confirmed their relationship?
Is this the time to meet the parents?
"Don't worry, my parents are very gentle." Shang Shiyan gently reassured the little girl, saying tenderly, "They will definitely like you when they meet you, especially my mother."
"How did you know?" Pei Jinwu asked back.
"Oh."
Shang Shiyan didn't answer directly, but instead said indirectly, "I'll know when we meet that you two get along well."
We'll talk about it later.
Pei Jinwu frowned, then lay back down on the sofa and closed her eyes to rest.
"good."
Shang Shiyan's smile widened, indicating he was in a very good mood.
At least they didn't refuse.
Good thing.
——
Time flies.
The WKL esports finals are less than two days away.
A few days ago.
In the competition between Country H and Country Y, Country H emerged victorious.
The final will be a match between Country H and Country China. The two sides have a long-standing feud, and the atmosphere at the scene will definitely be explosive.
Especially in country H...
They came on strong, winning all their way to the finals, and their form was unbelievable.
Let's look at the Immortals again...
I don't know what happened these past few days, everyone's face is downcast, and the team is lifeless.
——
On the other side of the city.
Because of the semi-final incident, Meng Feihe lost face in front of his classmates and Shen Yunrou.
To salvage his pride, he had to secure a VIP first-row center position in the finals, no matter what.
Pei Jinwu just relies on her brother, the movie star, to throw money at her and show off.
He has a few stinking coins, too!
"What? They're all reserved?"
Holding his phone, Meng Feihe asked incredulously, "Where's the second row?"
If you can't get a seat in the first row, the second row will do.
"We're sorry, but to ensure the comfort of our VIP guests in the first row, the second row is not for sale," the staff patiently explained.
"I'll pay more."
Meng Feihe was not giving up and said in a very arrogant tone: "I will offer ten times the price."
"Feel sorry."
The staff member replied again, smiling, "Our first row was reserved by order of the organizers and was not sold."
No sales?
How influential must someone be to warrant the organizer personally reserving a VIP seat for them?
The first two rows are still available!
"..."
Meng Feihe was completely dumbfounded, and Pei Jinwu's words involuntarily came to mind.
She said, "We'll talk about it once you make it to the finals."
Could it be—
"Is the first row seat for Pei Jinwu?" Meng Feihe asked, clenching his fist.
"right."
After all, it wasn't something that needed to be kept secret, and the staff openly admitted: "The first row of seats is reserved specifically for freshmen in the Computer Science class at Imperial University."
"..."
Meng Feihe was speechless. After hanging up the phone, he asked his father to come up with a solution.
"The organizer?"
Upon hearing this, Meng's father's expression immediately turned serious.
The organizer of this competition is backed by the Shang Group.
Could it be that Pei Jinwu has a connection with the Shang family?
"Never mind the position." Meng's father rolled his eyes and solemnly instructed his son, "Remember, don't provoke Pei Jinwu again."
"What?"
Meng Feihe immediately became angry, his spoiled young master temper flaring up, "Dad, have you forgotten how Pei Jinwu humiliated me?"
"Do exactly what I say!" Meng's father coldly rebuked.
If Pei Jinwu really had dealings with the Shang family...
Offending her is equivalent to offending the business community. How can the Meng family maintain its foothold in the capital?
"..."
Meng Feihe gritted his teeth, his eyes filled with hatred.
Pei Jinwu?
How could he allow a mere girl to step on his head time and time again?
We'll have to teach her a lesson sooner or later!
——
late at night.
Beijing Capital International Airport.
A plane that had flown in from across the ocean landed smoothly.
The hatch opened.
A woman in her fifties, but well-maintained and with an exceptional air, walked out slowly, arm in arm with a middle-aged man of similar age, who was gentle and refined.
Are you tired?
Shang Hechuan took off his coat and gently draped it over his wife, saying softly, "It's just an e-sports competition, look how busy you are."
"I rushed back without preparing anything, and I didn't even tell my son."
"It doesn't matter, he's used to it."
Ms. Zhong glanced at her grumbling husband with displeasure and said irritably, "And what do you mean, 'It's just an e-sports competition'?"
"This competition features the Undead Team created by my idol."
"You know my crush, right? Tell me!"
"hiss--"
The pinch on his waist made Shang Hechuan wince in pain, but he quickly replied, "Demon, Demon!!!"
——
Good night.
Happy National Day! I bet all the kids are back.
