Chapter 73 Where is my gift?
Yan Buyu immediately replied, "Uncle, my brother hates to bully me the most. It was me who bullied him. He carried me all the way back from where we went out just now."
Shen Zhiye nodded, and when he looked at Yan Buyu, he immediately put on a smile, "Uncle and Mom bought you a lot of gifts, let's go open them."
Shen Yunqi stood there blankly: He suddenly missed Boss Shen. At least when he was around, he wasn't the only one being neglected.
Soon, his wish came true.
Shen Yanzhou stood beside him, watching the happy family of three.
"Dad, Aunt Lan," Shen Yanzhou said without pausing, as he walked into the living room, "you should have let me know in advance when you were coming back so I could have arranged for someone to pick you up."
Lan Xinyan smiled gently, "Yanzhou is back. Please sit down. We wanted to give you a surprise. Come on, Auntie brought you a gift. See if you like it."
As is customary, Shen Yanzhou accepted the gift box from Lan Xinyan with both hands, saying, "Thank you, Aunt Lan."
"We've been gone for a long time this time, so we're sorry to have troubled you to look after the two little ones." Lan Xinyan really liked Shen Yanzhou; he was steady, sensible, and capable of handling things.
She had originally planned to train Shen Yunqi in this direction as well.
But I don't know what went wrong.
Oh well, never mind.
Shen Yanzhou adjusted his glasses and said in a gentle tone, "Aunt Lan, you're too kind. We're all family. Besides, Buyu is very well-behaved and there's no trouble at all."
Everyone likes to hear others praise their child. Besides, keeping quiet can bring honor to the family.
Lan Xinyan smiled even more broadly, "Of course I know Buyu is good. I was talking about that troublesome one. But you're right, we're all family, so let's not stand on ceremony. Have you been busy lately? You look thinner than the last time we met."
"Buyu, we attended a jewelry exhibition in Italy, and I felt this koi brooch would suit you perfectly at first sight. Do you like it?"
A koi-shaped brooch composed of hundreds of sapphires and diamonds.
The design is so lifelike that you don't need to find the right angle; it just sparkles with dazzling fire when you hold it in your hand.
"I like it, Uncle, thank you!" Yan Buyu has loved sparkly jewelry since she was little. Her eyes crinkled as she held the jewelry with obvious delight.
Shen Zhiye was even happier after being affirmed.
She then proudly presented a dozen or so gifts of various sizes, saying, "Your mother and I will prepare a local specialty gift for you wherever we go. Take your time to open them."
Shen Yunqi stood there for a long time, but no one paid any attention to him.
He strolled over slowly, his face dark, and asked, "Where's mine?"
Lan Xinyan was still chatting with Shen Yanzhou about everyday things.
Shen Zhiye introduced the gifts to Yan Buyu one by one.
Nobody paid him any attention.
Shen Yunqi walked up behind Lan Xinyan, bent down and whispered in her ear, his voice suddenly rising, "Mom! Where's my present!"
Lan Xinyan was not paying attention, which startled him.
"What are you yelling for! You scared me to death!" She frowned and patted her chest. "Don't you act like an adult?"
"Shen Yunqi!" Shen Zhiye shouted angrily when he saw his wife was frightened.
Shen Yunqi was used to it. He stood up straight, put his hands in his pockets, and looked like a rogue. "It's one thing that Buyu has a gift, but Boss Shen has one too. What about mine?"
Shen Zhiye and Lan Xinyan both fell silent.
To be honest, neither of them thought of bringing Shen Yunqi anything.
Shen Yunqi's face darkened.
They usually keep quiet, but he doesn't say anything, and he doesn't care about these things.
But today, Shen Yanzhou received a gift, while he didn't!
"elder brother!"
While Shen Yunqi was still angry, he heard a crisp voice, followed by a pleasant peach scent.
He was led to the sofa by that small hand. "Brother, look at this phone charm. Uncle bought two, one brown and one pink. The pink one is mine, and the brown one is yours."
Shen Yunqi's expression softened somewhat.
All the people in the room combined weren't as good to him as his little Buyu.
Who cares about them? Who cares who they are? Why would he be jealous of Boss Shen?
It's fine as long as my sister is with him.
"Okay, then hang up my phone." Shen Yunqi took out his phone and handed it to Yan Buyu.
Without saying a word, he immediately lowered his head and started operating the machine.
My dear daughter.
Even a disobedient son acts like a big brother in front of his daughter.
Lan Xinyan looked at all this with gentle eyes and sighed, "It's so good to remain silent."
Upon hearing this, Shen Yanzhou also chimed in, "Yes, Bu Yu is really good."
Lan Xinyan glanced at him in surprise. The serious eldest son of the Shen family, who had been upright and somewhat old-fashioned since childhood, could now praise people.
She always said that her daughter is the best in the world, and everyone who gets along with her will like her.
"Yanzhou, Yunqi, you two come to the study with me." Shen Zhiye stood up and patted Yan Buyu's head. "Buyu, be good, chat with your mother for a while, and we'll have dinner together later."
Yan Buyu nodded, "Okay, Uncle."
She quietly tugged at Shen Yunqi's arm and whispered, "Don't talk back to your uncle."
Shen Yunqi raised his hand and flicked the tip of her nose.
"Baby, come to Mommy's arms." Lan Xinyan finally had some time alone with her daughter and opened her arms to urge her, "Hurry, hurry, hurry."
With a bright smile on her face, Yan Buyu rushed into her mother's arms.
Enveloped in my mother's pleasant fragrance, I felt completely relaxed.
"Mom, so many things have happened while you and Uncle were away. I miss you so much."
"Is something bad happening? Do you need us to help you resolve it?" Lan Xinyan stroked her daughter's soft hair and turned her head to kiss her cheek.
"No, everything has been resolved, and it's all been resolved very well." Especially the matter of Shen Yunqi, which was thrilling in the process but had a gratifying ending.
For her, everything was trivial except for the life and death of her brother and mother.
My brother's life was saved; the rest didn't matter.
"Sweetie, how are things going with your older brother? Has he been mean to you?" This was Lan Xinyan's biggest worry.
Shen Yanzhou doesn't seem to know how to coax children.
“No, my brother is very good,” Yan Buyu answered truthfully. “He is very thoughtful, but he just doesn’t know how to express himself. I can feel that he is very good to both me and my brother.”
Lan Xinyan was extremely gratified.
When you reach middle age, the best thing is that your children are doing well.
In Shen Zhiye's study, he sat upright in his chair, with his two sons standing opposite him at the table.
Shen Zhiye looked at Shen Yanzhou, "The meeting in Hong Kong hasn't ended yet. The board members there have a lot of complaints about your early return."
"It must be Director Chen," Shen Yanzhou said calmly. "His son was harassing female subordinates at the company and forcing female colleagues to wear miniskirts to work. I dealt with it, and he still holds a grudge against me, which is understandable."
"Next time, deal with his father too. Don't let dirty people and messy things get in my way." Shen Zhiye rubbed his temples. "His father was just like that when he was young. Like father, like son."
"I was just about to report to you that we have obtained the evidence of Director Chen bribing the Hong Kong Police Superintendent. We will send it directly to the Independent Commission Against Corruption on an auspicious day. The evidence is conclusive. However, you will need to find someone else to replace him."
