After my whole family read my mind, they slayed the villain with a bang, and I won without lifting a

Lu Yunjie was instantly dumbfounded, and a little annoyed. Wait, Fifth Sister, are you showing favoritism?! Why does he have to prepare a gift? Fourth Brother doesn't need one?

Don't be too obvious about your favoritism!

Why should your fourth brother, whom you've never even met, receive all your love?

Lu Yunjie was still roaring madly when, the next second, he heard...

Fourth Brother's love is just too heavy! I can't bear it, I can't bear it...

[I accept anything else he gives me, but this gift from my fourth brother... I really don't want it, sob sob. But I can't bring myself to refuse, after all... it's all his hard work! If I refuse, it will really hurt him.]

【Hey……】

The fourth brother is a university professor, not only aloof but also quite fond of delving into problems. If the gift he gave was indeed those practice problems, then it's perfectly normal for the fifth sister not to want it.

After spending so many days together, Lu Yunjie knew that his fifth sister wasn't exactly a studious type...

Let's help Fifth Sister...

While Lu Yining was still sighing, Lu Yunjie had already taken out his phone and opened a WeChat chat window with the contact name "Old-fashioned".

(Just a friendly reminder, Fifth Sister prefers desserts and jewelry, so you need to choose gifts that truly resonate with her.)

After sending the message, Lu Yunjie turned off the screen and looked at Lu Yining with a sly grin: "I told him to prepare your gift as soon as possible, so as not to disappoint you later."

"You bastard!" Lu Yining gritted her teeth and glared angrily at Lu Yunjie.

You did it on purpose!

"He deserves a beating," Fu Yaxuan thought to himself as he glanced at Lu Yunjie's expression.

"What kind of gift will your fourth brother give? You look so troubled." Ji Shiyan was curious about what kind of gift could make Yi Ning look so distressed.

"If there are no surprises, it's an exam paper." Lu Yining felt utterly hopeless.

She's already graduated, so why does this kind of thing have to reappear in her world?

"If you don't like it, I'll make it for you later."

"Really?!" These words were like a lifeline, and Lu Yining instantly perked up. She raised her head slightly and stared at Ji Shiyan: "What you just said, is it true? You're not lying to me, are you?"

"Really." Ji Shiyan's expression was gentle yet focused and earnest.

[Hey, I forgot! Ji, the handsome guy, is a top student! This is a sure thing!]

"Deal!" Lu Yining said, extending her right hand toward Ji Shiyan.

Her hand was fair and smooth, and under the light, it appeared even more delicate and lustrous, like a piece of mutton fat jade.

He blinked, stretched out his hand, and was about to grasp the other hand. Suddenly, a hand reached out from the side and knocked his left hand away.

"Why shake hands? No need. I'm the witness." With that, Lu Yunjie switched the fork from his right hand to his left, pointing at Ji Shiyan with his right hand: "You, behave yourself and don't cause any trouble."

They looked like they were guarding against thieves.

Ji Shiyan didn't react much, but there was still a hint of regret on his face.

"Alright, alright, you guys chat here, I'm leaving now, I'm sleepy."

As Lu Yining spoke, she yawned widely, and a few large tears slid down her cheeks.

[It's so late, and these people are still so energetic, amazing! I can't stand it anymore, I need to go back to sleep, I have to go to the wrap party tomorrow.]

"Then go back to sleep first and get some rest." Lu Yunjie's mouth was stuffed with something, so his speech was a little unclear, but Lu Yining could still understand him overall.

She replied, "Okay, you guys finish eating and go back quickly."

[Five hundred rounds! If we don't start soon, it probably won't be finished before the wrap party tomorrow.]

Fu Yaxuan: "?"

Lu Yunjie: "..."

How come you still remember this!

How come you have such a good memory! With such a good memory, you should memorize more Chinese and English questions, math formulas, and so on! Maybe you could even get a perfect score on the test set by Lao Si!

"I send you."

As he spoke, Ji Shiyan stood up. Since he was already standing, Lu Yining didn't refuse. She said softly, "Okay."

He escorted Lu Yining to the door, and just as Lu Yining was about to turn around and say "goodbye," a pair of deep, intense eyes locked onto her, as unfathomable as the deep sea, like a deep pool.

His voice was soft, almost a lover's whisper: "Goodnight~"

Lu Yining's eyes flickered, something flashing through her mind so quickly that she didn't even notice it. She smiled brightly: "Goodnight."

……

The wrap party was held at noon, and Director Liu booked the restaurant at Longhe Restaurant, which is near the Hefeng Hotel. It's only about a nine-minute walk from the Hefeng Hotel to Longhe Restaurant.

Lu Yining and her group were walking ahead, and they were almost at the restaurant.

"Yi Ning! What a coincidence! I just woke up and I already see you." A sweet, coquettish voice suddenly rang out from behind them.

Lu Yining looked up at the sky, her expression a mixture of annoyance and helplessness: [It's like a persistent ghost...]

She urged the people around her, "Let's go, let's go, let's go faster."

At the same time, she quickened her pace.

"Yi Ning, why are you walking so fast? Be careful—don't fall!"

As he spoke, the people behind him quickened their pace.

Lu Yining: "..."

He stopped abruptly: "What do you want to do?"

Seeing that she had finally stopped and looked very happy, Lu Yan ran over to Lu Yining with a smile and said, "I just felt happy to see you this morning and wanted to talk to you."

She looked at Lu Yining for a few seconds after saying that: "Yining, your dark circles are quite heavy. Did you go to bed very late last night?"

"Yes, yes," Lu Yining replied perfunctorily, but as she spoke, she glanced at Ji Shiyan out of the corner of her eye, feeling inexplicably guilty and not daring to look him in the eye.

God knows if she was possessed last night. As soon as she lay down on the bed, she remembered Ji Shiyan saying goodnight to her before they parted. Those two words held her captive for more than an hour. She finally fell asleep around 5 or 6 a.m.

"Alright, stop asking so many questions. It's impolite to keep asking. Ye Muyu and Xu Dingsheng are right behind you. Go back and chat with them."

"Hello~" It was a rough, yet energetic voice.

"Hey! Director Liu!"

Upon seeing Director Liu, Lu Yining immediately felt her worries and dizziness disappear, and she felt hopeful again.
