Chapter 39. The Shameless Little B*tch

 Ningyan didn't want him to find out that she was working there, so she randomly came up with an excuse. "I'm here to see my friend."

 "You're here to find friends? Ningyan, this place is messy; you shouldn't have come." Lu Yian sighed softly. He patted her head, but Ji Ningyan dodged his hand.

 Lu Yian raised his hand and looked at her with a severe expression.

 Ji Ningyan didn't notice his movements. Rather peeved, she said, "Why can't I come? Brother Yian, aren't you here too?"

 "We're different. You're still young …."

"I'm not young anymore. I'm twenty years old. I've long become an adult!" Ji Ningyan retorted. She didn't like that Lu Yian always used her being young as an excuse.

 "Yeah, not young anymore."

 The girl who used to follow behind him and call him big brother had already grown into a slender and elegant young lady.

 Ji Ningyan looked left and right, then suddenly said, "If there's nothing else, I'll go and look for her now. Goodbye, brother Yian."

 Seeing that she was really about to leave, Lu Yian grabbed her. "Wait a minute, Ningyan. Don't you have something to say to me? "

 "Oh?" Ningyan looked at him, puzzled.

 What was she going to say?

 "Don't you remember what day it is today?" Lu Yian sighed softly. He felt that the little girl's hand was soft and delicate as if no bones were in it.

 Ji Ningyan thought for a moment, then replied with some uncertainty, "Thursday, I guess."

 "What else?"

 "16th of July."

 "And then?" Lu Yian asked, his eyes burning.

 "Is there anything else?" Ji Ningyan looked at him in confusion. Just as Lu Yian's expression changed; she suddenly came to her senses. "I remember now. Today is your birthday, big brother Yian."

 Lu Yian's anger was instantly appeased after she said this.

 "So you still remember."

 Ningyan let out a few dry laughs. If he hadn't reminded her to this extent, she really wouldn't have been able to recall.

 Seeing that Lu Yian was still holding her hand, Ji Ningyan hurriedly pulled her hand back, then gave him her blessings. "Brother Yian, I wish you a happy birthday. I wish you to become more handsome and rich!"

 What kind of magical blessing was this? Lu Yian didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

 "Yes, thank you."

 Lu Yian continued to watch her, waiting for her to present the gift.

 He had already heard from his sister that Ningyan had prepared a gift for him. It was said to be a watch.

 The little girl wanted to surprise him, but Siyuan, the big mouth, came to his side and leaked the secret in advance.

"Then, brother Yian, you can continue celebrating. I'm going to find my friend."

 When Lu Yian heard her say this, his smile froze. He looked at her in disbelief. Is she leaving just like that? Where's the gift?

She didn't bring a present, but Ji Yunzi, who had come out of the private room to look for Lu Yian, did.

 Lu Yian said that the private room was too stuffy and wanted to come out for some fresh air. She was worried and followed him out.

 But just as she stepped out of the door, she saw Lu Yian holding Ji Ningyan's hand.

 Ji Yunzi's head felt like it was about to explode. She quickly walked over and growled, "Ji Ningyan, you shameless little slut. You dare to pester Yian. Have you forgotten that he is your brother-in-law?"

 As she spoke, she raised her hand towards Ningyan, slapping her in the face. "If I don't teach you a lesson today, I, Ji Yunzi, will write my name backward!"

 Ningyan hurriedly jumped away.

 This was the rhythm of attacking without distinguishing right from wrong.

 "Ji Yunzi, you better watch your mouth. Brother Yian and I are innocent. We're not as bad as you say!"

 "Innocent? Do you think I'm blind and didn't see you two holding hands? If I didn't find out early, you would have climbed into Yian's bed, right?"
