After Being Cyber Bullied, She Reveals Her True Identity

Chapter 155: Chapter 155: Angry? Chapter 155: Chapter 155: Angry? Shen Yan was also attending a friend and classmate’s birthday banquet for the first time, and she inquired online about what gift to give a boy for his birthday.

Many Fireworks fans offered meaningful gift suggestions, and Shen Yan sifted through them.

She wanted to privately thank the helpful Fireworks fans, but they firmly rejected her.

The Fireworks fans were generous; they really didn’t need Shen Yan’s monetary thanks.

Shen Yan also specifically told Liu Su, who was coming to pick her up, that Qi Si might be busy until who knows when. Maybe by the time she finished attending the birthday banquet, he wouldn’t have returned home.

So, she just didn’t bring the matter up with Qi Si.

It was just a classmate’s birthday party, and there was no need to report it to Qi Si.

While Fireworks fans were frantically searching online for the male celebrity who might be having a birthday today, Shen Yan picked up Lin Shuangxu in her family’s car.

Lin Shuangxu had brought another beautiful girl with her, who seemed to be a senior student.

I heard that she was a family friend of Ji Yao.

The status of the Ji Family in Shen City could barely be considered touching the edge of wealth, so this senior’s family background shouldn’t be too different.

Shen Yan didn’t care about anyone’s family background.

But this Senior Sister Qiao, named Qiao Zhilan, was sitting in the back seat of Shen Yan’s car and kept probing into Shen Yan’s family background, even bringing up the rumors of a rural upbringing from the internet.

She smiled and asked Shen Yan, “Shen Yan, netizens are saying your family is from the countryside, is it true? Don’t misunderstand, I’m just as curious as the netizens.”

“Being from a wealthy family or the countryside has little to do with ourselves. Even if I came from the countryside, I wouldn’t feel inferior or belittle myself because of it. Is Miss Qiao dissatisfied with her own background?”

Lin Shuangxu, seated next to her, tried to speak up several times, only to be interrupted by the “chatty” senior.

Qiao Zhilan stiffened her smile, “I never said I was dissatisfied. Shen Yan, you’re now a huge star. How come you’re still attending school like us, driving by yourself? What about your assistant or driver?” There was a hint of disdain in her words.

“I’m a normal person,” Shen Yan felt that her words implied she was special.

She didn’t like special treatment.

It reminded her of her past self.

At that time, she thought she wasn’t normal, and she deliberately avoided it.

It almost led her to develop a psychological illness.

“Since you chose to be a star, you should have realized you wouldn’t live an ordinary and stable life like the rest of us. I grew up with Ji Yao, we are childhood sweethearts, but I have never seen him so eager to invite an outsider girl. I have to say, Shen Yan, your charm must be very great.”

Shen Yan raised an eyebrow when she heard this.

Lin Shuangxu felt awkward.

Was this senior’s hostility toward Shen Yan a bit too strong?

Lin Shuangxu made eye contact with Shen Yan.

She didn’t know if Shen Yan could tell that Senior Sister Qiao was being sour, trying to warn Shen Yan against setting her sights on Ji Yao.

Qiao Zhilan was also quite attractive, but compared to Shen Yan, she felt herself fall short in every aspect.

Shen Yan glanced at her.

How could she not feel Qiao Zhilan’s obvious hostility?

“Thank you for the compliment.”

Shen Yan’s response was indifferent.

If it wasn’t for Ji Yao, she might have thrown this Senior Sister Qiao out of the car halfway.

Sometimes, Shen Yan had a temper, too.

Today was Ji Yao’s birthday party, and she didn’t want to start on the wrong foot with his people before she even arrived.

Lin Shuangxu quickly jumped into the conversation to direct Shen Yan, while trying to engage Qiao Zhilan in conversation to distract her.

Ji Yao’s birthday party was quite a big affair—it seemed like the family was using the child’s birthday as an opportunity to hold a business networking event.

The Ji Family couldn’t avoid wanting to squeeze into the upper class and had invited everyone they could.

The adults didn’t involve Ji Yao in their business networking, and he had already gone off with his peers to have his own gathering, unrelated to business.

When Shen Yan and the two others arrived, the birthday banquet had already started.

Being told they were Ji Yao’s classmates, family members had already arranged for them to take a detour and meet with the young people.

More than a dozen people gathered in another courtyard, eating and drinking, and spontaneously started playing games—it was quite a lively scene.

“Look who’s here! Ji Yao really has clout; he invited a big star to the party!” a slick voice called out from the lively crowd with a laugh.

In an instant, everyone’s attention turned to the sparkling Shen Yan.

Walking beside her, Qiao Zhilan tensed up.

She clenched her teeth and squeezed out a smile, making her way to Ji Yao first, “Ji Yao, happy birthday!”

She handed over a small rectangular gift box containing a high-end custom-made men’s bracelet.

Ji Yao smiled, thanked her, and then walked graciously towards Shen Yan.

Qiao Zhilan’s forced smile froze once again.

“You’re here.”

Ji Yao’s gaze was fixed on Shen Yan, while Lin Shuangxu cleared his throat twice.

Only then did Ji Yao divert his attention.

“Ji Yao, happy birthday!”

Ji Yao replied with thanks and took the gift from Lin Shuangxu.

It all looked very exquisite, obviously high-quality items.

Ji Yao looked expectantly towards Shen Yan.

The way the crowd looked at Shen Yan suddenly shifted.

Shen Yan handed him a small gift she had chosen—just a tiny box that gave no hint of its contents.

To everyone else, it seemed rather stingy.

Ji Yao accepted it with a smile, “Thank you!”

Ji Yao didn’t open it right away, as to him, the value of the gift, whether expensive or not, was extremely meaningful.

“Aren’t you going to open it, Ji Yao?” Qiao Zhilan was curious to see what kind of gift the big star, Shen Yan, would give. If it was something cheap, it would show a lack of regard for Ji Yao, and if it was overly expensive, could it imply that Shen Yan had special feelings for Ji Yao?

Qiao Zhilan felt a sour twist in her heart.

Seeing that everyone wanted to take a look, Shen Yan said, “Open it and see if you like it.”

Ji Yao then opened the small gift box, which contained a valuable and elegant cufflink!

The brand was incredibly pricey!

The boys present couldn’t help but exclaim, “Isn’t that a private design by that master from Country F?”

Qiao Zhilan’s face turned a shade paler, and she abruptly looked at Shen Yan with a somewhat cold gaze.

Upon seeing the cufflink, Ji Yao was stunned and a flash of joy crossed his eyes!

“This is the most special gift I’ve ever received! Shen Yan, you’ve really put thought into this.”

Seeing that Ji Yao truly liked it, Shen Yan thought to herself that the Fireworks fans were right; men indeed liked such things.

Qi Si got off work early tonight and had just finished a meeting when he told Liu Su he was going to pick up Shen Yan from school.

Liu Su quickly said, “Yanyan went out; you don’t need to go all the way there to pick her up.”

“Where did she go?”

Qi Si’s tone dipped slightly.

“She said she was going to a classmate’s birthday party and would be back late. Oh, Yanyan also asked me for cufflinks you’ve never used!”

Qi Si’s handsome eyebrows knit slightly, “It was a male classmate.”

“It should be,” Liu Su continued, “I gave the cufflinks to Yanyan in private. She doesn’t know, thinking I bought them from outside…”

Qi Si hung up the phone.

Liu Su: “…”

Qi Si lately had a habit of hanging up on people suddenly!

Could it be he’s angry?

Liu Su was somewhat worried because it was his doing, and if there were a misunderstanding about Shen Yan, and the couple argued because of it, he would be the one to blame.
