“Can you even call that thing you did bathing?!” Unable to take it any longer, Lin Jiage finally snapped.
“The four-year-old you was playing house, and you treated the eight-month-old me like one of your dolls and threw me in the water. If I didn’t cling so resiliently for life, I might have drowned!”
Lin Jiayi: “Alright, even if what you said is true, it still doesn’t change the fact that I know you very well. That little scheme of yours can’t fool my keen eyes!”
At this point, Lin Jiayi paused for a moment as she leaned forward to whisper in Lin Jiage’s ears, “Tell me the truth. That present was for Yaoyao, right?”
Lin Jiage didn’t say a word, but his expression had clearly changed.
Noticing his reaction, the glee on Lin Jiayi’s face deepened, “You were planning on giving Yaoyao a birthday present, and you used me as a cover, am I right?
“But, you didn’t expect me to come back, so now all your efforts have gone to waste. Sigh, it sure is a huge pity, isn’t it?”
Lin Jiage took a pillow and buried his head beneath it, refusing to listen to Lin Jiayi anymore. “China doesn’t welcome you, please go back to wherever you should be!”
“Why should I? I refuse, so what can you do about it?” Lin Jiayi haughtily tilted her head up before returning to the topic at hand. “I thought that you hated Yaoyao? She’s been to our house so many times, but you never even spared her a second glance. Why would you suddenly give her a present now? Not to mention, you were even willing to get beaten up to protect her…
“Have you finally noticed my Yaoyao’s innocence, beauty, adorableness, and obedience?
“If I think about it, it’s such a pity that I was born a woman. If I were a man, then you’d never have been engaged to Yaoyao in a child betrothal…
“But, if Yaoyao is willing to follow me to the United States, it might still work out between us. After all, there are several states that support same-gender marriage…”
“Lin! Jia! Yi!” Lin Jiage suddenly sat up and yelled out his sister’s name one syllabus at a time.
“Woah, are you getting mad? Is this jealousy I see?” Lin Jiayi blinked her eyes as she whipped out her phone. “Let me take a photo. This is the first time my younger brother has lost his temper, I have to record this precious moment…
“Don’t move and keep that look on your face, thank you… Lin Jiage, why are you turning around? Hey! I haven’t taken a photo yet… Tsk, you’re being a spoilsport here…
“Are you mad? You can’t be actually mad?
“Fine, fine, I won’t mess with you anymore. Let’s get down to business…” Saying this, Lin Jiayi stretched her hand toward Lin Jiage and rubbed her fingers together. “… You get it. As long as you please me, I’ll give back those presents to Yaoyao.
“I’ll just say this first: if you turn down this deal, then I’ll do whatever I want to those items—”
Before Lin Jiayi could finish, Lin Jiage had already taken out his phone and began tapping on it.
Shortly later, ‘ding dong!’ , Lin Jiayi’s phone rang. She tapped into her AliPay and saw that Lin Jiage had sent her a sum of ‘8888’.
Lin Jiayi rubbed her fingers once more as she said, “That’s just enough to cover the service fee. You still haven’t paid the present fee yet…”
Heck, this is daylight robbery!
Suppressing his fury, Lin Jiage tapped on his phone screen once more.
Seeing the new transaction of ‘88888’ in her AliPay, a radiant smile emerged on Lin Jiayi lips, “Deal!”
Lin Jiage pointed to the door and said, “So, Lin Jiage, isn’t it about time for you to leave now?”
“No hurry. There’s still another even more important matter that we haven’t discussed yet…” As she spoke, Lin Jiayi leaned her face toward Lin Jiage. “… Give me a little more money, and I’ll prepare a surprise for you later. Don’t worry; as long as you pay, I guarantee you’ll be satisfied!”
