February 2 at night.
Nanren's body stood stiffly.
A few minutes ago, Yun had brought her here, saying it was important.
His mouth fell open as he stared at the now extravagantly decorated space.
It's a big building!
"My gift" Yun raised his head with a proud expression.
Nanren "..."
A huge building from the most luxurious place in the capital city, Zhumumir!
Nanren "..."
"Oh, right, the birthday was going to be celebrated first, then the gift..."
While muttering regretfully, thinking that he had made a mistake, Nanren still couldn't take his eyes off the building, which was wrapped up like a huge gift wrap.
Nanren:...
"Yun, this thing is a little…a little?"
Hesitantly he spoke each word. Of course he was joking, but he didn't expect Yun to misunderstand.
"Little?" Yun squinted his eyes at the building. "Well let it be this year, I'll buy you a big field next year... jet if you're not happy with the buildings? Spaceship? Car? No, the car isn't profitable, do you want your company directly?"
Nanren muttered as she looked at his serious expression. "To be able to joke with that face...great talent"
"I'm not kidding" Yun heard and approached him seriously, "Money is okay, if you want to start a business I can even invest" this time his expression was not serious, as if he was talking about giving his little brother pocket money to buy some candy.
Nanren:...
Nanren was speechless, the benefits Yun mentioned took up almost the entire wealth of the five great families. He clearly looked so ordinary, but it was surprising how wealthy he was. In fact, Yun was indeed wealthy even though he did not act luxuriously and extravagantly. Others wouldn't have guessed it, as it didn't add much unnecessary expense.
Kadilth, that is, the black market of the country he lived in, was officially in his hands, not only that, it extended to other countries.
He had capital in almost every company in Kadilth, he even reached out to world-famous companies. Car companies and aerospace and research institutes were now being bought by him one by one. The thing he didn't need most in this world was money, he couldn't hurt himself if he threw millions in the sky.
"There's another one..." Nanren said abnormally, turning her head to look at him.
Yun pulled the ring box-size gift wrapping out of his pocket and thrust it into Nanren's hands. Nanren was frankly frightened when she heard there was a second gift, but was relieved when she saw the size of the package.
"Don't open it now, when the others give presents, you open them in turn" He looked at the package in his hand with a confident smile.
"Okay." He looked at the package in his hand with mild curiosity.
Yun took it and proceeded to the car. He also got his driver's license as he came of age this year.
He drove, keeping the car at a simple speed. He lightly glanced at Nanren Yun as the carriage steadily moved forward. Frankly, he thought that Nanren Yu was unapproachable. Yet he was a good-natured man...
It was night time, so Yun moved forward, paying particular attention to the traffic.
Towards a restaurant instead of Ji Mansion. The restaurant was quiet, of course because her mother, Elena, had booked the entire place privately.
The car is parked. Elena, Rance and Gin were already waiting inside.
The huge place was decorated, an inscription was hung in big letters.
'Happy Birthday Nanren'
Nanren forgot to breathe for a moment. A wiggling joy...
He has been living in this family for a year. Elena treated him like her own son, while Rance and Gin took care of him, albeit relatively quiet. In this one year, Nanren was not pleased with this attention, he was uncomfortable.
Because they were not his.
He took away the warmth that Ji Yun needed to get.
Therefore, he drew a border and waited for the day when Yu would return. That day, he would leave this family and hand everything back to Yun.
No matter how greedy for this love...
But it was Yun who brought him here. Instead of getting fired, jealous or offended, he did the opposite.
His eyes were red, he had a tearful expression. A childlike joy seemed to have taken over his entire soul...
A normal life she's been craving ever since her uncle took her...
Nanren did not know his real family, while in the orphanage he always wished to be happy with a normal family. When the Ji family adopted him, hope was replaced by fear. He had heard of the intrigue in the great families. Even the brothers had no pity for each other.
The party was perhaps a bit of an exaggeration, but the people involved were just a family. Even relatives in Ji were not included.
As for Ji Hofan, he had sent the gift even though he couldn't come by because of his urgent business.
After the cake was cut and eaten, everyone got into the conversation. Rance called out to Yun Nanren as Gin and Elena spoke.
Nanren turned to the person sitting next to her with her call.
"Don't move", the two people who were already close due to location were even closer due to Yun's deliberate approach. Nanren froze...
He's still not used to being this close to people.
When the corners of her mouth were wiped with a napkin, her entire face was red from embarrassment up to her neck. He was really treated like a child today...
Being the youngest in the family, he was cherished by the family.
Moreover, even Yun, who seemed cold-tempered, cooperated.
Nanren didn't know why they were so friendly, but Yun did. Nanren's naive nature also pleased his internal family. They didn't think it was weird to be nice to him, now that he was a member of the family anyway.
