Chapter 9 This is just a good show to cooperate with Yan Junci

The man's aura was so strong that Shu Ni's heart was pounding. She struggled for a moment, but finally confessed, "Someone gave it to me." After getting this answer, he ordered in a deep voice, "Go on." This time Shu Ni did not hide anything from him. After telling him everything, she asked tentatively, "Is this the jade pendant you lost? I don't think that big brother is a thief. Maybe he picked it up and wanted to return it to you but couldn't find anyone..." Yan Junci's expression suddenly became complicated. He pursed his lips slightly and stared at her with his deep black eyes. Seeing him like this, Shu Ni, who was muttering to herself, finally quieted down. "So, the so-called engagement was simply fabricated by you." Yan Junci's voice sounded again, with obvious mockery. Shu Ni quickly clarified, "It's not us, it's my dad!" Yan Junci asked, "Did you give him the jade pendant?" "Of course not." Shu Ni said truthfully, "I also want to know when he took the jade pendant away and used it to make a fuss!" There was another knock on the door, probably the servant bringing clothes. Yan Junci gave her a look, indicating that she should go and get it. When she came back with the clothes, Yan Junci said, "Don't mention this to anyone." Shu Ni was a little surprised, "It's already like this, why don't you cancel the engagement?" "I told you, my mom is going to have surgery next month." Jiang Yin has not been able to get over the grief of losing her son. The root of her illness is the result of years of worry, and she has also responded negatively to treatment. However, when she learned about the engagement, she seemed to have found new hope and became full of energy. Yan Junci warned expressionlessly, "If the operation cannot be successfully completed, then I will settle all old and new accounts with your Shu family." After saying that, he didn't even look at Shu Ni and walked out of the room. When Shu Ni returned to the living room dressed neatly, Yan Junci had already returned to his indifferent look. They stayed here for lunch. He had gone too far just now. She didn't dare to look up at him during the meal. After dinner, Jiang Yin talked to her about the future again. She was preoccupied and was listening attentively when her left foot was suddenly tickled lightly a few times. Looking down, she saw the cat she had fished out. The little guy has returned to his original cute appearance. He approached Shu Ni cautiously and meowed softly at her. Jiang Yin smiled and said, "San'er is usually not clingy, it seems that he likes you very much." Shu Ni was surprised, "Its name is San'er?" Jiang Yin explained, "My eldest son and daughter-in-law are gone, and my second son doesn't like to go home. This cat is my third child." Over the years, Yan Hanyu has been living under the protection of his grandparents and uncle. He behaves badly outside, but is skilled in showing his hypocrisy in front of his elders. "Grandma, you still have me! I will spend more time with you in the future." "Compared to you, I would rather have your wife accompany me." After saying that, she looked at Shu Ni meaningfully. "Okay, when you're done with the surgery and discharged from the hospital, we'll get married and have a bunch of little monkeys to keep you busy every day!" "You are such a frivolous kid!" Yan Junci sat on the sofa in the corner, frowning and looking at his phone, without making any comments. Shu Ni's thoughts were still in a mess until she left in Yan Hanyu's sports car. Today she had completely offended Yan Junci. Fortunately, she was still of some use, otherwise the situation would not be so peaceful. The two did not communicate throughout the whole process until they parked the car at Shu's house, and he handed Shu Ni a business card with a black background and gold embossing. Shu Ni took it. "From today on, call me every night at dinner time. Even if you are pretending, you should pretend to be affectionate with me." Shu Ni turned to look at him and raised her eyebrows slightly. Yan Hanyu didn't want to say more, "Just like that, get out of the car!" Shu Ni still looked calm and waved goodbye to him. The moment she turned around, the smile on Shu Ni's face no longer existed. She knew very well what Yan Hanyu was planning. From what Old Madam Yan said, we learned that the Yan family has a tradition of getting married first and then starting a career, and Yan Junci is an exception. Now Yan Hanyu only has the honorary title of a group director. Only when he marries a wife that satisfies his ancestors can he naturally share the real power from Yan Junci. Although he looked down on her, he wanted to use her to gain the favor of Old Madam Yan. Because of this relationship, he did not dare to make the relationship too awkward. Although the Yan family is a dangerous place, it is still a place of shelter for her until she grows up. Under Jiang Yin's instigation, the two families finally arranged a dinner together to discuss the marriage. Lian Yingyun and her daughter also seemed quite expectant and even bought new clothes specially, but it was obvious that they had other intentions. The dinner was booked at a private club. Lian Yingyun's elder brother was one of the investors. Shu Lu walked in front with her head held high, looking as proud as could be. When she saw Madam Yan in the VIP room, she realized her impoliteness and hurriedly shrank back to her mother, greeting her shyly and obediently. Jiang Yin had lived for several decades and could see at a glance that Shu Lu was domineering. Then, looking at the gentle and quiet Shu Ni, she liked her even more. "Everyone, please sit down. Don't be shy." Jiang Yin said with a smile, and then waved to Shu Ni, "Nini, come sit over here." The more she looked at the two youngsters together, the more she found them pleasing to the eye. "Future in-laws, look how well-matched they are!" The words "future in-laws" made Shu Ruixian feel elated. To form a marriage relationship with the Yan family was something that many prominent families could not do, but he succeeded with just a little trick! He was secretly proud, but on the surface he was calm, "Hanyu is such an excellent child. After all, my Nini is marrying up. I hope you can discipline her in the future." "No, it's obviously Ni Ni who has been wronged." Jiang Yin glanced at her only grandson and said with great sorrow, "I am ashamed as an elder. For others, it's a good thing to be on the cover of a newspaper, but this guy is full of scandals that are disgusting. It's really embarrassing!" Yan Hanyu touched the tip of his nose, his expression was too unnatural, "No way!" Jiang Yin snorted coldly, "Do you think that just because your uncle helped you suppress the news, an old woman like me would know nothing? If you dare to mess around again in the future, I will definitely not forgive you!" The atmosphere suddenly became tense, and Shu Ruixian hurriedly tried to smooth things over, "If a man does not indulge himself in romance when young, it is a waste of his youth. Han Yu is still young, and it is normal for him to make some mistakes ..." Jiang Yin glanced at him, and he immediately stopped talking. He changed the subject awkwardly, "Ni Ni has graduated for a while. I was planning to arrange for her to train in the company. This child has been smart since she was young. Maybe she can become a good helper to Han Yu in the future." Jiang Yin's expression improved when he heard him praise Shu Ni. "Most girls like to go shopping. If she is not interested in managing a company, let her do what she likes." "You're right. For a girl, it's good to live a happy life and have a few children to enjoy..." Yan Junci arrived late. When he arrived, Shu Ruixian had already painted a beautiful picture of a house full of children and grandchildren for Old Madam Yan. Perhaps he had just arrived from work, he was dressed in a neat suit, serious and stern. After entering the room, the spacious space suddenly seemed cramped, and everyone who was chatting subconsciously quieted down. Yan Hanyu, who was originally daydreaming, immediately sat up straight. Shu Lu, who was happily playing with her mobile phone, immediately put on an appearance of listening attentively. Shu Ruixian was stunned. It took him three full seconds before he hurriedly stood up from his chair and greeted him politely, almost fawningly. "Sorry, I have a meeting." He sat down calmly and asked casually, "What are you talking about?" "Talking about having babies!" Seeing this stunningly handsome man, Shu Lu rushed to answer, trying to get his attention. Yan Junci held the teacup in his hand, without even raising his eyelids, his face showing no emotion at all. Shu Ruixian glared at his youngest daughter, silently blaming her for her reckless and frivolous words and actions. At the same time, he said to Yan Junci, "We will soon be a family, so of course we will chat about family matters." Worried that her son might offend others, Jiang Yin replied, "It's a pity that my old body is not strong enough to take care of the children's affairs for the time being..." Now it was Lian Yingyun's turn to get restless. "As for the ceremony, it should be simple." Jiang Yin disagreed, "How can this be possible? This is an important event in Ni Ni's life, so we must not be careless at all. Let me finish the surgery, and then we must make it a grand occasion!" The atmosphere quickly became lively again. Only Shu Ni, every word and sentence was related to her, but she seemed to be out of it, just nodding and smiling from beginning to end. She knew very well that this was just a good show to cooperate with Yan Junci. After Madam Yan finishes the operation, he will definitely expose this scam. By then, her father should wake up from his long dream. Shu Ni was just imagining her father's heartbroken look when she was suddenly told to toast Yan Junci. The graceful waitress walked over quickly and filled the glass with wine smoothly. The amber-colored foreign liquor is slowly poured into the crystal clear goblet. The liquor ripples gently in the glass, reflecting charming light. Shu Ni looked up and inadvertently met those black eyes as deep as a dark pool, and she couldn't help but feel a sense of inexplicable tension in her heart. The next second, Yan Junci's eyes fell on the wine glass in front of her. Thinking of the family rule warning that could break three canes, and remembering the two times she had stepped into his forbidden zone because of drinking, Shu Ni hesitantly withdrew her hand and tentatively responded, "I don't drink." Yan Junci is the object of everyone's flattery, and the only one who dares to say "no" to him tonight is Shu Ni. Shu Ruixian frowned immediately, "You kid!" His tone was harsh, as if he was accusing his daughter of being rude and even ungrateful. Yan Junci glanced at Shu Ni with a half-smile, but his tone was calm, "It's okay." After saying that, he picked up the wine glass and drank the wine in it. While the waiter was refilling the wine, Lian Yingyun secretly winked at her daughter. Shu Lu understood, straightened her neatly combed hair, then walked towards Yan Junci with a glass of wine. "Mr. Yan, let me toast you a glass." She showed a sweet and charming smile, and her beautiful eyes were shining with amorous glances. This time Yan Junci smiled sincerely, but the smile did not reach his eyes. He stroked the wine glass from time to time, his expression normal, but revealing an indescribable alienation, "Girls shouldn't drink." With so many eyes staring at her at the table, Shu Lu felt embarrassed and almost ashamed after being rejected. Turning around to ask her mother for help, Lian Yingyun lowered her head and pretended to be indifferent. Jiang Yin naturally knew the twists and turns involved, and she was tired of seeing similar tricks. Thinking that they were all family in the future, it would be a shame to make the situation so awkward. She asked the waiter to bring some tea and smiled to break the deadlock, "Wine is really not a good thing, let's have tea instead of wine." Perhaps for his mother's sake, Yan Junci picked up the wine glass, but did not clink glasses with Shu Lu alone. Instead, he said to everyone, "Everyone please feel free." He drank the liquor in the glass without changing his expression, and didn't even glance at Shulu. Shu Ruixian felt that he had lost all his face. On the way back, he tried to hold it in but finally couldn't help but vent, "What's wrong with you mother and daughter? You speak without thinking and do things without considering the situation. You made people laugh the whole night!" Lian Yingyun crossed her arms and refused to admit her mistake. "I am doing this for the good of Nini and this family, right? Yan Junci is the head of the Yan family. What's wrong with me wanting to have a good relationship with him?" No matter how high-sounding her words were, Shu Ruixian could guess her true intention. Because the two children were there, he did not expose her directly, lest she get angry and scratch him. Shu Lu was already ashamed after being rejected in front of everyone. After hearing what her father said, she became even more angry and humiliated. "If my second sister hadn't refused to drink and angered others, would I have been humiliated like this?" Shu Ni found it funny and speechless at the same time. It was clearly her own fault that she was not smart, yet she was able to put the blame on others with a clear conscience. However, Shu Ni was too lazy to argue with her. If she had the leisure time, she might as well think about how to completely clear Yan Junci's suspicion of her. When she thought about going abroad with this dangerous man, she couldn't help but sigh.
