Chapter 454: I Like It Very Much
"Sun Jie, your outfit seems very special today." Even Yang Li was shocked. Did Sun Jie have a major revamp of her character?
"Don't mention it. My dad thinks that I am getting older. He's urging me to get married soon therefore, I can only dress myself younger..." Sun Jie smiled bitterly.
"Aren't you going back to school? Why marry?" Yang Li asked curiously.
"Graduate students can get married..." Sun Jie shook her head. "Ai, let's stop talking about this! Yes, Yang Li. Why didn't you tell me that you were bringing Yang Ming over?"
"To give you a surprise!" Yang Li pretended to say it casually, but her eyes were staring at Sun Jie. She wanted to see if Sun Jie had any special reaction.
However, Sun Jie smiled very naturally and said, "How can that surprise me?! Isn't this kid just requesting me to do something for him?"
"Oh? He really wanted to request some things from you?!" Yang Li listened to Sun Jie's words and dispelled her suspicion. Maybe Yang Ming and she really have nothing.
How would Yang Li know that Sun Jie's heart was a little surprised just now too? Did Yang Li see through something? However, Sun Jie's ability to adapt wasn't comparable to that of the average person. It wasn't an exaggeration to say that she was a little fox [1]!
"Aren't you requesting something from me? Pass me my gifts!" Sun Jie didn't evade anything. The more she avoided, the more it would make Yang Li think that there was a problem. She might as well act generously.
"Who would be like you, requesting a gift when you meet?" Yang Ming handed over the gift that he had prepared for Sun Jie.
"Hehe, I will accept it first. Thank you." Sun Jie took the gift from Yang Ming and left it on her desk.
"Why don't you open it?" Yang Ming asked.
"Hehe, you must have bought a gift for Yang Li too, right? If I have a better gift than her, she will be jealous. So, I will peek at it when no one is around..." Sun Jie smiled.
"..." Yang Ming was speechless. This Sun Jie, she's behaving like a child. Could I have encountered a ruthless person with a multiple personality disorder?
"Sister Sun Jie, open it quickly and let me see..." Yang Li couldn't resist her curiosity. Especially when Sun Jie said it that way, the more curious she became.
"No, you will be jealous of me..." Sun Jie shook her head.
"Just take a look! I won't rob you!" A light bulb went off in Yang Li's head as she suddenly said, "I know. You must be afraid that your gift won't be as good as mine, so you dare not open it!"
"Hehe, you are using reverse psychology!" Sun Jie smiled. "Since you insisted on taking a look, then I shall satisfy your curiosity! Yang Ming, you won't let me down, right?"
Yang Ming was dumbfounded. He really couldn't understand what the girls were thinking! The noble and savvy Sun Jie also had a cheeky side.
The wrapping paper was taken apart and it was a set of jewelry. This was what Yang Ming bought for Sun Jie especially. There was more thought put into it, unlike Yang Li's handbag which was simply bought at the mall.
"Wow! It's so beautiful!" Yang Li exclaimed. Any woman had a natural fondness for jewelry. Yang Li was no exception. "I say, Yang Ming. Could you be using a counterfeit to fool Sun Jie?"
Sun Jie can see that these jewels were the real goods at a glance. Moreover, the price wasn't cheap. It was also very much like her own style. It seemed that Yang Ming had spent a lot of time preparing this.
One of the brooches here was very similar to the one that she wore when she first met Yang Ming. Yang Ming can remember such small details and pick a personalized gift. Sun Jie felt very touched...
Moreover, the brooch was only worn once and Yang Ming actually remembered it very clearly. This showed that Yang Ming didn't simply consider herself as a one-night stand.
"Is the bag I gave you a counterfeit?" Yang Ming looked at Yang Li with confusion and rebutted.
"Hmph! Yes, Sister Sun Jie, can you help me see if this bag is genuine or counterfeit? Is it a counterfeit from the street stall?" Yang Ming reminded Yang Li that the reason she brought the bag he gave her over here today was to let Sun Jie determine whether this was genuine or counterfeit.
"Oh? What bag?" Sun Jie took the handbag that Yang Li handed to her. This was an LV bag. Sun Jie started examining it.
Yang Ming just realized that Yang Li's bag was the one he gave her! Maybe it was because he didn't care much, so he didn't pay attention to it at all.
"It's genuine. It's definitely genuine." Sun Jie returned the bag to Yang Li. "This is a limited edition. We don't have any here. It seems that Yang Ming is really your brother! He just gave me something that appeals to all... not as good as yours..."
"Really? Hehe... Who made me his big sister?" Yang Li immediately said after listening, "Yang Ming, thank you!"
"You're welcome..." Yang Ming was a little depressed. This Sun Jie, what's she thinking? Her words really hurt people. Yang Li's limited edition bag is the one that I bought casually...
"Let's go. Let's go eat! I am a little hungry," said Sun Jie as she put Yang Ming's gifts into her handbag.
"What do you want to eat? Today we are welcoming you! It's Yang Ming's treat!" Yang Li said very generously.
"Huh?" Yang Ming was stunned as he looked at Yang Li.
"Hehe, younger brother, you seem to be very rich. An LV bag here and a few pieces of jewelry there. I remember that the salary of uncle and aunty isn't a lot..." Yang Li sneered.
"Forget it. I lose. I'll treat. Please don't sell me out and talk about it..." Yang Ming was really afraid that she would simply talk to her parents.
"A favor for a favor, let's see how you perform!" Yang Li laughed.
"Let's go. What do you want to eat? My treat!" Yang Ming shrugged, but he wasn't upset. He still liked Yang Li this way. She was more like a family member now!
Although Yang Li gave a bad impression to him before, relatives were relatives after all. This was decided when everyone was born. It couldn't be changed. Therefore, if they could repair the relationship with one another, Yang Ming was still very happy. He believed that his parents would be happy to see Yang Li and him as they were now.
"I heard my brother says that there is a store in Song Jiang called Lin's Boiled Fish. Would you like to try it?" Sun Jie suggested.
"We'll follow whatever you say today." Yang Ming hadn't expressed anything and Yang Li said it first.
The three people went downstairs together and went to the parking lot. Yang Li looked at the Audi R's key in Sun Jie's hand. She couldn't help but say, "On the way to dinner, can you let me drive it for a while?"
"Hehe, okay!" Sun Jie nodded with a funny look, "Then I'll drive my company's car."
"Yes. Yang Ming, whose car are you sitting in?" Yang Li asked.
"I'll go with Sun Jie. I have something to ask her." Yang Ming said.
"Well, then I won't bother you both. See you at the entrance of Lin's Boiled Fish!" Yang Li said.
"Do you know how to get there?" Sun Jie asked strangely.
"Of course, I know. It's just on the way to my college! It's newly opened. Very hot!" Yang Li said.
"Alright, we probably won't be able to catch up to your car." Sun Jie smiled.
Yang Li went ahead. Yang Ming and Sun Jie got into a BMW X which was used by Sun Jie's company to create a better impression.
"Thank you." Sun Jie started the car and said to Yang Ming, "I like the gift very much."
"Really?" Yang Ming was stunned. "Hearing your tone just now, I thought you didn't like it!"
"Oh, why? Depressed?" Sun Jie smiled.
"How could I not be? Yang Li's bag was simply bought at the mall. Your jewelry required a lot of thinking!" Yang Ming didn't know why, but his left hand went to touch Sun Jie's lap unconsciously...
"Take that hand away!" Sun Jie snorted. "Don't be like this in the future. I have said that it was an accident... Now Yang Li has probably seen through something!"
"Now she can't see anything!" Yang Ming smiled, but he didn't mean to take his hand away.
"I'm driving. If you want to die, leave it there." Sun Jie said with some helplessness.
"I believe in your driving skills." Yang Ming smiled and said, "Did you miss me?"
"Miss you for what?" Sun Jie asked, "Yang Ming, your current practice makes me feel very disgusted. I have said that was an accident. Are you thinking of a second time?"
"What first time or second time? What are you talking about?" Yang Ming spoke to her as if he didn't know anything. "I think the way we are now is good..."
Yang Ming saw through Sun Jie's words that she didn't really dislike him. Otherwise, with her personality, it would be impossible for Sun Jie to let him take advantage of her this way. Or Sun Jie was now immune to him.
"..." Sun Jie was speechless. She took away her hand from the steering wheel and slammed it on Yang Ming's hand...
"Pa!" Sun Jie slapped her own lap and it hurt her so much that her mouth twisted...
Yang Ming's eyesight was generally above average. When he saw that Sun Jie wanted to slap him, he quickly pulled his hand back so Sun Jie ended up slapping herself.
"Yang Ming!" Sun Jie shouted angrily.
