Chapter 10: The Overbearing Boss's Runaway Bride (Part 9)



After Sophie took a taxi back to Jiang's house, Jiang's father and mother, who had just returned from out, were waiting for her at home to have dinner together.

This was the first time Sophie saw the original owner's parents in person since coming to this world.

I have to say that the original owner perfectly inherited the appearance advantages of the two.

"Yingying, where did you go to have fun again?"

Gentle Mother Jiang reached out and took Sophie's hand.

"I didn't go anywhere. I just felt bored at home, so I went out for a walk to relax."

Sophie raised her hand, tore off a chicken leg, stuffed it into her mouth and started to eat it with relish.

She had been hanging around outside for a long time and was now starving.

With a "pop" sound, a sharp pain came from the back of my hand.

The chicken leg in his hand fell to the ground.

Sophie looked in disbelief at Mother Jiang, who was standing beside her with a gentle smile on her face.

"Be good Yingying, your hands are dirty, wash them before eating."

This is the truth, but you are wrong if you act first and then talk!

Sophie looked at the big chicken leg that fell to the ground with heartache.

"Okay, Wanyin, don't talk while eating and don't talk while sleeping. Let's eat quickly."

Father Jiang picked up his bowl of rice without paying any attention.

Sophie felt very depressed during the meal. She finally understood who the original owner inherited his moody personality from.

"Yingying, the day after tomorrow is your engagement ceremony with Yichen. Mommy has asked someone to put the dress in your room. Try it on when you have time. If the size doesn't fit, tell Mommy again."

After the meal, Jiang's mother spoke softly to Sophie. Her gentle and affectionate look made it difficult to associate her with violent oppression.

"Okay, Mommy."

Sophie responded obediently, secretly complaining in her heart that the original owner didn't even have the qualifications to choose her own dress.

The tool man is confirmed!

At night, new data tables came into my mind.

Name: Sophie

Truthfulness: -25

Kindness value: -104

Beauty value: 129

Total: 10

Bond value: 10

Looking at the extra column of values, Sophie narrowed her eyes unhappily.

Men will only affect the speed at which she wields her magic!

She was determined to nip this budding love in the bud.

When you wake up, a new day begins.

Sophie stroked her chin, thinking about today's schedule.

Yesterday's visit to Aunt Wang made her taste the sweetness, and she planned to repeat the same trick and continue going out to earn extra money.

"Hey, Yingying, where are you going?"

Mother Jiang stopped her in her tracks.

"If you have nothing to do, come with me to a luncheon. I have some friends I can introduce you to."

Without giving her any room to refuse, Jiang's mother pulled her into the driver's car.

In the bright lobby, the crystal chandeliers above reflect brilliant light.

Sophie followed Jiang's mother reluctantly.

She greeted Jiang Mu's friends from time to time, trying hard to play the role of a good girl.

Looking at the entire venue, the only thing that attracted her was the exquisite snacks in the buffet area.

Sophie's gaze fell directly on the dining table not far away, and her mouth began to drool unconsciously. A blind figure blocked her burning gaze.

"Yingying, this is your Aunt Luo's brother Si Jin. He just came back from abroad. It just so happens that you both majored in design in college, so you can have the opportunity to communicate and cooperate with each other in the future."

Jiang Mu's introduction came from her ears, and Sophie looked up in response.

What caught my eye was indeed Si Jin's expressionless face that deserved a beating.

"Hello, Yingying."

Si Jin extended his hand towards her condescendingly.

There was a fleeting glimmer in Yao's dark eyes.

"Brother Si Jin, hello."

Sophie pulled the corner of her mouth with a forced smile, looking very perfunctory.

After the brief meeting, the parents continued chatting.

Sophie walked straight past Si Jin and headed towards the dessert area she had been craving for.

According to the plot, the heroine has not yet been persecuted by Jiang Ying, and the second male lead still has room to be hostile to her.

Sophie didn't want to have too much involvement with him, especially after seeing the glaring bond value, she avoided him as if he were a snake or scorpion.

Si Jin looked at her cold back, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but curl up into a playful arc.

[Ding! Successfully attracted the bonded target's attention, bond value +5.]

???

Sophie's hands shook and she almost dropped the chiffon cake in her hands.

This is totally off the mark!

She didn't do anything?!

Sophie angrily took a bite of the cake, turning her grief and anger into appetite.

The original plot didn't detail the past between Si Jin and Jiang Ying. All Sophie knew was that they didn't get along and looked down on each other. But now, the most crucial problem has arisen.

He's really into her!

Could it be that Si Jin is a masochist with a masochistic tendency?

Her kick not only stepped on his toes, but also on the door of his heart?

Is this reasonable?

No, she had to do something quickly to let Si Jin completely nip this hazy feeling in the bud.

Sophie swallowed the last bite of cake on the plate, turned around and found Si Jin who was enjoying the breeze on the balcony.

On a summer afternoon, the cicadas chirp pleasantly.

A gentle breeze blew the man's slightly curly hair, and a black teardrop mole was faintly visible at the corner of his eye.

Oh, monster.

Sophie withdrew her gaze.

She stood in front of him with her arms crossed in an arrogant manner, looking overbearing.

"Mr. Si, please take the time to tell Xi Mengru that tomorrow is Jiang Yichen and I's engagement ceremony. As our mutual friend, please ask her to come in person and give us her blessing."

Sophie is arrogant and has high expectations.

But out of the corner of his eye he carefully observed Si Jin's expression.

Sure enough, I saw a hint of disgust in his eyes.

Sophie turned away with satisfaction, the corners of her mouth rising involuntarily.

Now he should finally give up.

She was the woman who stole the man he loved.

His attachment to the heroine alone can arouse the hatred hidden in his heart, thus completely erasing those unnecessary ties.

[Ding! Successfully shook the bonded target's heart, Kindness value -15.]

ha? ? ?

What kind of magical operation is this?

Sophie immediately summoned Xiao Ai.

"Xiao Ai, what on earth is going on?"

[Replying to the master, once the "Bond" quest is started, it cannot be terminated. Bond points cannot be eliminated except for accumulation, so they will be deducted from the points earned recently!]

Xiao Ai's explanation was like a wake-up call, giving Sophie a heavy blow.

It seems that from the very beginning, she had no choice at all!

[Master, rest assured, as long as you successfully complete the "Bond" mission, you will receive generous rewards and your satisfaction is guaranteed! ~]

"Why didn't you tell me such an important thing earlier?"

Sophie went berserk online.

Not only did she lose 15 kindness points in vain, but she also made the task more difficult!

[I'm remiss for not fully explaining the rules to my owner! Here's a caring gift package, please check it out!]
