Chapter 16 Giving the Necklace to Lin Shuangyu

The door opened.

Si Yuan sat far away from Jiang Wangwang.

Two people, one lazy, the other disciplined.

Song Yan breathed a sigh of relief for some reason. Si Yuan was soft-hearted, and he was afraid that Jiang Wang would bully her.

"Xiao Yuan, Jiang Wang, let's go."

Si Yuan nodded.

Jiang Wang didn't move.

Si Yuan suddenly remembered something.

She swiftly tore off a blanket and threw it at Jiang Wang.

Song Yan: ...?

Jiang Wang slightly raised his eyebrows and looked at her.

Si Yuan gave a dry laugh and said, "I'm afraid Brother Jiang Wang will be cold."

Song Yandi's face turned pale.

But he held back and didn't say anything.

Hearing her call Jiang Wang in that soft, sweet voice again, which was no different from calling him himself, he felt a strange pang in his heart.

The tone became even worse.

"get off."

Si Yuan obediently got out of the car this time.

Jiang Wang smiled, pulled the blanket over his shoulder, and said to Si Yuan, "Thank you, Sister Song."

Si Yuan shivered.

If she weren't afraid that Song Yan would find out about him... she wouldn't bother with him at all.

Jiang Wang withdrew his gaze and said indifferently, "You guys go first, I have some work to do, I'll be there later."

Song Yan nodded and slammed the door shut.

As they approached the clubhouse entrance, Song Yan noticed that Si Yuan was still holding the jewelry box in her hand.

He found it an eyesore.

Looking up, I saw Lin Shuangyu also getting out of the car.

He paused, then suddenly asked, "Do you like this necklace?"

Si Yuan wasn't interested in jewelry, but she didn't know why her brother was asking about it, so she told the truth: "It's alright."

"Then you should give it to Shuangyu."

Si Yuan was stunned, and for a moment, her whole body stiffened.

She shook her head, then suddenly became stubborn and held the box behind her back.

Song Yan smiled faintly and said patiently, "These kinds of elaborate ornaments are too flashy and don't suit you. They're perfect for Shuangyu."

Si Yuan felt a sudden pang of sorrow in her heart.

Song Yan's words clearly meant: she was not good enough for her.

Si Yuan refused: "Brother, no, this was a gift from someone else."

Even though it was given to her by Jiang Wang, it was still given to her by someone else. Even if Song Yan wanted it, he should never have given it to Lin Shuangyu.

Song Yan's smile faded slightly, and he frowned, looking down at Si Yuan and saying, "This should have belonged to Shuangyu in the first place, but someone deliberately raised the price and snatched it away."

Si Yuan asked blankly, "Isn't an auction simply a matter of the highest bidder winning?"

Song Yan felt that Si Yuan was very argumentative these days.

She used to obey him no matter what he asked her to do.

Originally, Song Yan just didn't want Si Yuan to keep the things that man had given her.

She just needs to let go obediently.

But now, things have changed.

The thought of Si Yuan arguing with a man over something he bought made Song Yan feel irritated, and he was determined not to do what she wanted.

Song Yandi's tone became more serious: "Shuangyu likes it very much. How much is it? I'll pay you."

His eyes were icy cold as he spoke.

It's like doing business with a stranger.

It turns out that all it takes is some money to appease her and buy her important things.

Si Yuan looked at him, her heart aching and swelling like a cotton ball soaked in water.

She gritted her teeth and slowly shook her head: "Brother, I'm sorry..."

Lin Shuangyu stood to the side and tugged at Song Yan's sleeve at the right moment, her voice gentle, "Ayan, it's alright, if your sister likes it, just let her have it. I don't mind."

These words made Song Yan feel that Si Yuan was even more ignorant.

Si Yuan retorted, "What do you mean by 'giving'? This was originally mine..."

Song Yan's gaze turned icy as he looked at Si Yuan: "The Song family raised you all these years, what is yours?"

Si Yuan's face drained of all color instantly, and her hand holding the box trembled uncontrollably.

She opened her mouth, but her throat felt blocked, and she couldn't make a sound.

She could only stare blankly at Song Yan, and the last bit of resentment she felt towards her brother shattered in an instant.

In fact, Song Yan regretted it the moment he said those words.

It felt like a needle had pierced his heart.

Si Yuan seemed disappointed, her eyes staring blankly at me, so clear, yet so helpless.

I think I've gone too far in bullying her.

He hesitated, as if he wanted to say something but then stopped.

But at that moment, several of Lin Shuangyu's friends came over and interrupted him.

"Siyuan, I'm not trying to be mean, but your brother is so good to you. It's just a broken chain. If Shuangyu likes it, just give it to her. Why are you being so possessive? How petty."

Then someone else chimed in, "That's right, they don't even know their place."

"Such exquisite jewelry should be worn by a beautiful girl like Shuangyu. It only makes her look tacky."

These words, like icicles, pierced Si Yuan's heart again and again.

She became the target of public criticism again.

Everyone is blaming her.

Hearing these words, Si Yuan felt like a fish being pulled alive from the water, her chest aching so badly she felt like she was suffocating.

Song Yan frowned, not wanting to hear these people speak so excessively, and said with some impatience, "Alright, since you're making things so difficult for me, then forget it."

As soon as she finished speaking, Si Yuan was terrified.

She was afraid that Song Yan really disliked her.

She feared he wouldn't even leave her the identity of his older brother.

She feared that the Song family would become even more hostile towards her because of this.
