Chapter 407



407 i just don’t like owing people

Shi Yan walked over and sat down.

Su Wan knew how to cook, but she only did it occasionally.

shi yan had eaten su wan’s cooking a few times before. the moment she took a bite, she immediately claimed that su wan made breakfast.

he had actually made it himself.

his hand that was holding the spoon paused for a moment. he looked up at su wan, who was sitting across from him.

su wan smiled contentedly. she was obviously very happy.

“mom, you’re not eating?”

“it’s still early, i can’t eat. i’ll eat later. you can eat first. jiang che is here to pick you up to school, right?”

“yes.”

I’ve also prepared breakfast for him. Bring it with you later.

Shi Yan followed her line of sight and saw a packed breakfast on the table next to her.

“Okay, Thank you, Mom.”

Even though she always said thank you, this time, she was obviously less distant than yesterday.

“you don’t have to be so polite with mom.”

she had lost her daughter’s life for nine whole years. after nine years, she only prepared breakfast for her daughter once when she had grown up. it was her dereliction of duty as a mother.

shi yan didn’t say anything and lowered her head to eat her breakfast.

after she finished her breakfast, su wan even sent her out.

jiang che’s car didn’t enter the su family’s residence. instead, it waited at the main entrance. If Shi Yan had not stopped her, su Wan would have walked her to the main entrance.

Jiang Lin was driving.

jiang che sat in the back seat. shi yan opened the door and sat in the back seat.

as soon as they got into the car, jiang che leaned over to hug her, only hugging her for a while before letting go.

“Did you sleep well last night?”

“Yes, when did you end the video call?”

“I’ll hang up when you’re asleep.” jiang che said with a smile.

“Liar,” Shi Yan glanced at him.

When she woke up in the morning, the phone she threw on the pillow had run out of battery. before she fell asleep, her phone still had about 50% battery left. if it was on standby mode, it wouldn’t have run out of power overnight.

Jiang che smiled and looked at the things she was carrying. “what is this?”

“My mom prepared breakfast for you.”

Shi Yan opened the bag and took it out.”It’s still warm. Do you want to eat now?”

He then turned to Jiang Lin and said,”Mr. Jiang Lin, you haven’t had breakfast either, have you?” there’s a lot here, do you want to eat a little?”

it’s fine, it’s fine. It’s not convenient for me to drive. I’ll just have something to eat near Haicheng University. Thank you, miss Shi Yan.

” mr. jiang lin? ” jiang lin was shocked.

This was not the first time Shi Yan had called him that.

“Then you’ll eat it yourself?” shi yan asked jiang che.

“miss shi, have you eaten?”

Without waiting for Shi Yan’s reply, he leaned over and kissed her on the lips. Then he smiled and said, ” “It seems that miss Shi has already eaten.”

shi yan glared at him, feeling helpless and amused.

she passed him the breakfast.

The car drove in the direction of Haicheng University.

jiang che was having breakfast. shi yan said, ” this is my mother’s cooking. she must have woken up early in the morning to prepare it personally. however, she said that she had someone prepare it. ”

jiang che looked at her.

Worry flashed in his eyes.

Shi Yan smiled and said, ” I’m fine. Don’t worry. I’m just a little emotional.

“even though i don’t know what i’m sighing about.”

“Jiang che, what do you think about me preparing a present for my mother and little aunt? I’ll also prepare some for my brothers and Bo Chen.”

“why do you suddenly want to prepare a gift?”

there’s no reason for that. I just suddenly remembered that I haven’t given them anything since I left the Shi family. I want to prepare a gift for them. Before she left the Shi family, she would prepare a birthday present for everyone on their birthday.

In fact, even if she didn’t say it, Jiang che knew why.

she just took someone else’s and always felt that she had to give something in return.

however, that was not how family members should be.

However, since she wanted to give it to him, he would definitely support her.

“i’ll give it to you. do you need me to prepare it for you?”

“No, I can do it myself. it would be more sincere if i prepared it myself. i personally picked out the gifts for grandma jiang and the others. I’m a little busy with my research project right now, so I can’t find time to go to the venue personally to choose, but I can still make a call personally to prepare.”

jiang che raised his hand and rubbed the top of her head, not saying anything else.

Silence was better than words.

He was telling her that he would support her in whatever she wanted to do.

*

a week later, the gifts were sent to everyone. even the second madam of the shi family, qu xuan, who had not returned from haicheng, received one.

Seeing that the gift was from Shi Yan, qu Xuan’s face was filled with disbelief.

if she was already like this, then su wan and su yunzhi, who had also received gifts, were even more so.

however, the most inconceivable thing was that the gift had been sent directly to the jingdu university’s shi bo residence after he had returned to class.

in addition, two gifts had been sent to shi yan’s dormitory.

When Shi Yan was preparing the gifts, she had decided to prepare them for her father and brother after some hesitation. However, she had not given them to them.

Perhaps it was because both of their contact addresses were at the Shi family’s residence and she did not want to mail anything to the Shi family. Or perhaps it was something else. As for the specific reason, only Shi Yan herself knew.

or perhaps shi yan didn’t even know why.

when su wan received the gift, she was curious about who had sent it. when she opened the card and found out that it was from shi yan, she had mixed feelings.

Of course, she was happy. After all, it was the first time she had received a gift from her daughter after nine years.

however, after her happiness, her feelings were complicated.

The gift was carefully chosen. It was something she liked, but it was also very expensive. It would cost at least a few million Yuan.

They were not short of money, so it was reasonable for them to give her such a gift. However, it was not the new year or any other holiday, and her daughter had suddenly given her a gift, and it was such an expensive one at that.

She didn’t need to think too much to figure out the reason.

if she treated her well, her daughter would want to repay her with ten points.

her daughter didn’t want to owe anyone, not even her, her biological mother.

how did she develop such a personality?

su yunzhi returned from outside and saw su wan standing in the courtyard in a daze. she couldn’t help but ask, ” “Sister, why are you standing here?”

Su Wan saw the gift box in su Yunzhi’s hand.

It was sent to her office.

su yunzhi also saw the gift box in her hand.”Sister, you also received a gift from Yanyan?”

The word ” also ” told su Wan the source of the gift in her hand.

“I saw su mu receiving a gift at the company just now. Why do you think Yanyan would give us a gift for no reason? I heard that this bracelet in my hand was auctioned not long ago. It’s impossible to buy it without some connections. I’m afraid Yanyan must have put in a lot of effort to prepare this gift.”

without waiting for su wan to respond, su yunzhi sighed and said, ” “Yanyan, this child, so many years have passed, but her dislike of owing others has not changed at all. although i’m very happy to receive her gift, she’s clearly treating us as outsiders.”

Su Yunzhi noticed that su Wan’s eyes had reddened as she looked at the gift box in her hands. She was shocked to realize that she had said something wrong and quickly said, ” “but no matter what, to be able to receive a present from yanyan, and it’s such a nice present, it’s obvious that yanyan still remembers me as her aunt. overall, i’m still very happy.”

“i am very happy.” Su Wan bit her lip and said with a smile, holding back her tears.
