Qin Zhenbei looked at his arm that was being held and immediately pulled his hand out.
The girl looked at her hand being pulled out, pouted and stretched out her hand: "Then did you bring me a gift?"
There was a clear sense of alienation in his attitude: "I was on a mission, I didn't bring you any gifts!"
Her eyes fell directly on the army green bag Qin Zhenbei was carrying. The zipper was slightly open, revealing a corner of a red brocade box.
"Haha!" She didn't mind at all. Instead, she happily took the box out of her bag.
"Brother Zhenbei, you deliberately hid yourself. I knew you were always thinking about me."
Without waiting for anyone to stop her, she quickly opened the box with joy.
Inside the box is a butterfly hairpin with a delicate bright red velvet flower design.
"Wow!" Her eyes sparkled with joy. "This hairpin is so pretty. I like it very much."
"These bow hairpins are very popular recently. I have always wanted to buy one."
"Brother Zhenbei really knows what I like. Thank you!"
"Zhizhi!" Qin Zhenbei watched the gift being snatched away and stepped forward helplessly: "This is not for you."
"What? It's not for me?" Her face showed disappointment and dissatisfaction: "How could it be?"
"There's only one girl in the family. If you don't give it to me, who else would you give it to?"
This style of hairpin is obviously worn by young girls, so it is impossible to give it to Jiang Wan.
"Me!" Qin Zhenbei looked a little embarrassed, and his eyes unconsciously looked at Jiang Manyue who was standing beside him.
I had prepared it a long time ago and wanted to give it to her, but I never found the right opportunity.
But now it was snatched away on the spot, and I didn’t know how to respond for a long time.
"Zhizhi!" Jiang Wan suddenly spoke up, somewhat helplessly scolding in a low voice: "Stop messing around."
"Your sister is coming back today. I already told you so."
"Zhizhi?" Jiang Manyue looked at the girl in front of her: "You said she is the daughter adopted by your parents?"
She originally thought that this girl was Qin Zhenbei's fiancée, but unexpectedly she was the adopted daughter of the Lin family.
Only then did Lin Yazhi turn her gaze towards Jiang Manyue and look her up and down.
His tall figure and face are 70% similar to Jiang Wan's, but his temperament is more like that of Commander Lin.
Both her temperament and appearance are impeccable, and she even looks better than him standing in front of her.
Although she grew up in a small town, she is no worse than the girls from the provincial capital.
I have to admit that the looks and temperament inherited from my parents cannot be ignored.
A hint of jealousy flashed across Lin Yazhi's eyes, followed by an expression as if she were in a dream.
She apologized with a look of regret: "Oh, I'm sorry, sister, I didn't see you just now."
"I must have been too happy to see Brother Zhenbei, so I ignored you. You won't blame me, right?"
Wow, I could smell the fragrance of tea as soon as I opened my mouth.
This taste is so familiar, it tastes very much like Bai Wanrou's white lotus style.
What a pity, she thought the tea aroma could make her angry.
Jiang Manyue looked at her and smiled instantly: "Of course not, after all, my sister has poor eyesight and can't see me."
Lin Yazhi was stunned and the smile on her face froze immediately.
Even though he knew she was coming back today, he still deliberately did this and pretended not to see her.
He made ambiguous gestures with Qin Zhenbei in front of her. Could anyone really not see such poor acting skills?
"I'm sorry, sister!" She immediately switched her acting skills.
With a pitiful look as if being bullied, he said, "I didn't mean it. Brother Zhenbei and I are always like this."
"I was so happy to see him back that I forgot you were coming back today."
"Sister, don't be angry with me, it's all my fault!"
If Jiang Manyue scolded her, it would be that she, the elder sister who had just returned home, was not reasonable and petty.
Jiang Manyue turned to look at Qin Zhenbei: "Zhenbei, you just said that your parents adopted two children."
"I thought my parents adopted two children who were eight or nine years old, but I didn't expect they were adults."
"Just now, when I saw her being so intimate with you, I almost thought it was your fiancée trying to avoid suspicion."
"After all, she can only see you when I stand here alone. Blame me for coming back at the wrong time."
"I'm sorry, I didn't make it clear!" Qin Zhenbei apologized quickly.
Seeing Lin Yazhi's eyes filled with dissatisfaction again, he stepped forward and snatched the brocade box from her hand.
"This is a gift I prepared for Man Yue, her first day home!"
Then he handed the gift to her: "Manyue, congratulations on coming home!"
"Thank you!" Jiang Manyue took the gift. She didn't expect that the gift was for her.
When two people looked at each other, there were clearly sparks of ambiguity.
Lin Yazhi's gift was taken away on the spot, and her hands froze in mid-air in embarrassment.
The pretty little face turned red and white, and the jealousy in her heart was about to overflow.
This is clearly a reminder of her identity. Now that the real daughter has returned, she, the adopted daughter, has to stand aside.
Lin Yazhi bit the corner of her lip. Just hearing the word "adopted daughter" made her clench her fists unconsciously.
"I'm sorry, I was ignorant and snatched my sister's gift!"
"Please don't misunderstand me. Brother Zhenbei and I are just siblings. I really didn't notice you just now."
"Sister, please don't hate me. Zhizhi knows she is wrong."
As she spoke, she felt so aggrieved that her eyes instantly turned red, and she looked like a delicate little white flower.
She bit her lip and stubbornly held back her tears: "Sister, are you blaming me for taking your place?"
"If my sister doesn't like me, I can leave the Lin family."
"It's just that I've been with my parents for ten years. Can you let me wait a few days before leaving?"
Such a clumsy tea art performance actually dared to be played right in front of her face.
I thought she was an unforgivable evil woman who wanted to drive away my adopted sister as soon as she came back.
If someone who doesn't know the truth saw this scene, they would probably scold her to death.
"Haha!" Jiang Manyue couldn't help laughing: "Zhizhi, are you indirectly saying that I can't tolerate an adopted sister?"
"You keep saying that you took my place, but I am the biological daughter of the Lin family."
"Could it be that they want me to leave a bad impression on my parents on my first day back?"
"No, I didn't!" Lin Yazhi was exposed and shook her head awkwardly to explain: "Sister, you misunderstood me."
"Zhizhi!" Jiang Wan's voice also turned cold. Normally, they spoiled this child too much.
"When did your sister say she wanted to drive you away on the first day she came back? Don't talk nonsense here."
Commander Lin said with a dark face and dissatisfaction: "Man Yue has been away from us for 20 years. She is the daughter of the Lin family. I hope you can respect her well."
As expected, she is their biological daughter. As soon as she came back, she planned to make her parents angry with her.
She was clearly the only daughter in the family before, but now that she has really returned, her adopted place is no longer important.
"I, I understand, Mom and Dad!" Lin Yazhi agreed, biting the corner of her lip.
But he raised his head and looked at Jiang Manyue, with clear grievance and unwillingness in his eyes.
