Chapter 790 I Have No Morals and Am Sick
ed, but he kept persuading me, even getting angry with me for the first time. After thinking about it for a long time, I agreed to help him. It's what I owe him.HimShen Wanci guessed it was Shen Zhena...Chapter 790: I Have No Morality, Nor Am I Well
Yan Ji spoke word by word: "Hypocrisy, deceitfulness, selfishness, coldness, fickleness, pandering to the powerful..."
She naturally belonged to the type of cold and beautiful, with brows and eyes that carried a natural aloofness and charm. Especially when she looked at people with a faint indifference, it was devoid of any human touch.
This string of idioms coming down, not to mention the person involved, Xu Yanli, even Sheng Ruge who pretended to be busy and secretly eavesdropped on the wall felt a jolt in his heart.
Oh no, she'd have to find another place. In her mind, she frantically 'clicked' like an abacus, calculating the costs: rent for a new shop, renovation expenses, transfer fees...
Xu Yanli's face hadn't relaxed since Yan Ji's first word, and judging by her unsatisfied expression, he suspected she wasn't just done speaking, but had run out of words. "What did my parents do to make you so hostile towards them"
And him, they had never even met before. Could he be implicated just because he's from the Xu family
Yan Ji Mian looked expressionless: "I'm not your parents, you should ask them yourself about what they did. You..."
Right before she ordered them out, Sheng Ruchù was beside himself giggling uncontrollably at her. Yan Ji twisted his head and glanced at him, then pushed him out: "Go talk to our boss about the rent."
"Mr. Xu, is it" Sheng Ru Gu suddenly rushed to his face: "Just talk to me about the rent. Let's go over there, choose tea, coffee or drinks freely. What do you have to talk to Yanji about She can't even make a decent joke in three tries. She doesn't answer anything and always picks on people's weaknesses. If there's anything you don't know, just ask me. I promise to tell you everything."
When Yan Ji returned to the workspace, the mess on the floor had been cleaned up. At this moment, the entire room was only left with desks, chairs, computers, and a full wall of bookshelves behind them. It was empty in a way that felt unfamiliar.
Half an hour later, Sheng Ru故 finally sent Xu Yan禮 away: "Does he like you and want to pursue you He's really generous! This banquet must have cost a lot of money. I wonder if I'll ever have such a grand event in my lifetime."
Facing her eyes brimming with gossip, Yan Ji pursed his lips and put down the drawing in his hand: "When did you develop a love brain"
She never believed in coincidence. Xu Yanli appearing so frequently in front of her must have ulterior motives.
"Sheng ru gu, bored, let out a 'cut' sound, "You just can't..."
Yan Ji's phone rang. It was Zhou Shuyue calling, asking her to go back for dinner that night.
She directly refused: "No."
Life is short, there's no need to waste time maintaining a relationship that makes you uncomfortable, even if it's with your parents.
Zhou Shuyue still wanted to say something, but Yan Ji already said "goodbye" first, and after hanging up the phone, she plunged into work.
I thought that after I refused, the matter would be over. Unexpectedly, just before leaving work, I received a call from Gu Chenye: "I'm at your shop door. My mother called us to have dinner."
When was the call made
Although Gu Chenye found her question redundant and a little annoying, he still took his phone away from his ear and glanced at the time: "9:50 am."
She had just refused Zhou Shuyue a few minutes ago, it seemed she was determined to make her eat this meal
This was still her first time going to the Yan family with Gu Chenye after she got married. It was probably because of her pressure to get married that made Yan Weizheng and the others feel guilty towards him, so they had never proactively asked them to go back together in the past two years.
Zhou Shuyue opened the door for them: "Chen Ye... Xiao Ji..."
When his gaze turned to Yan Ji, the smile on his face became visibly unnatural. There was a carefulness in his demeanor that felt forced, making this closeness seem somewhat insincere. "Come in quickly, dinner will be ready in five minutes," he said.
As she walked towards the kitchen, she tried her best to make conversation, not letting the atmosphere grow awkward: "Your dad had dinner with his comrades today and won't be back. Just us and Jiajia tonight."
Yan Ji glanced at the dazzling array of dishes on the table but said nothing.
Zhou Shuyue served the last dish, glanced at the time with a frown. Yan Jiajia was still not back. She had told her that Xiao Ji would be coming for dinner tonight and asked her to come back early, but she hadn't seen her yet. Just as she was about to call her, the sound of a key being inserted into the lock came from the door.
The result was that Yan Jiaojiao wasn't back on her own, she had brought someone with her, and this person had previously had a disagreement with Yan Ji.
"Mom, I ran into Qian Wei at the mall this afternoon. She said she hasn't seen you in a long time and wants to visit. Also, she's a psychologist now! My sister has mental health issues, right So I brought her back here. I was thinking of having her see my sister too, just for a check-up. You won't be mad that I didn't tell you beforehand, will you"
Since everyone is back, what else could Zhou Shuyue say She couldn't chase them away. She gave a stiff smile: "How is this possible It's great that Weiwei remembered to visit me. I'm so happy! How are your parents doing lately"
They are all doing well, thank you for your concern, Aunt.
Zhou Shu Yue looked at Yan Ji apologetically, wanting to speak but stopping herself. "Wash your hands and let's eat. I'll get the bowls and chopsticks."
"Aunt, I'll help you."
Qian Wei's legs had been injured before, leaving her with after-effects. You couldn't tell when she stood still, but as soon as she moved, you could see that something was off.
Yanji glanced at her other, uninjured leg, and raised an eyebrow nonchalantly.
When Gu Chenye turned his head, he happened to see her like this and couldn't help but frown: "What are you trying to do again"
In his presence, Yan Ji had never concealed his wickedness: "People with mental issues tend to have many problems, like me. For example, I especially dislike asymmetry. It's fine if I don't see it, but once I do, it becomes incredibly uncomfortable, making my skin crawl. I feel the urge to fix it."
Money Wei also heard this, her body stiffened, a sharp pain came from the place where she had surgery. She knew this was just psychological, her broken leg had long healed, but she could never forget the pain and fear at that time.
Yan Ji stopped Gu Chen Ye from lecturing her before he could speak, saying, "Yes, I'm as vicious and immoral as you say, and sick too."
“...”
A roomful of silence.
Qian Wei glared fiercely at Yan Ji, her teeth gritted so hard they felt like they might break. Her fingers dug into her thigh with such force that they broke the skin, but she didn't feel a thing.
Besides Yanji, everyone at the table seemed to have lost their appetite. In the end, it was Zhou Shuyue who broke the silence: "Jiajia, you should apologize to your sister for what happened at the last banquet."
After so many days, Yan Jiaojiao probably already accepted the fact that she'd been exposed, and was also very clear about the purpose of this dinner tonight. Hearing this, Wen Yan didn't show any unwillingness: "Sister, I'm sorry. Last time it was my fault. I shouldn't have lost control of my emotions and said bad things about you in front of others."
Yanji said, "I don't accept."
Yan Jiaojiao's eyes suddenly reddened, biting her lower lip tightly, as if she had suffered a great injustice.
Zhou Shuyue stepped in as the mediator: “Xiao Ji, Jiaojiao knows she was wrong. She's been reflecting on it these past few days. You two are sisters, why not forgive her this time…”
He heard the words, but didn't say a word. He got up and walked over from the living room with a fruit knife in hand, his expression and tone both flat, as if he were saying what he had for lunch: "I'll stab her a few times, then apologize. If she forgives me, I'll forgive her too." give him any chance for solo activities before he goes back to the army."Ye Fu Sheng: "Were you kidnapped If so, just send a 95.""This is one of the conditions I set for helping you reclaim your comp...
