Chapter 108 - Confrontation (2) (2/2)

When Jian Yunnao was contemplating the situation, Jian Yuncheng walked over.

“What’s wrong?” Jian Yuncheng asked.

Jian Yuncheng’s gaze s.h.i.+fted to the crumpled bag in Jian Yunnao’s hand. The paper bag had a black handmade sweater in it. The style of the sweater was different.

Then, he took a look at Mo s.h.i.+yun.

“Brother, Mo s.h.i.+yun wasn’t lying. Look at this. This was the birthday gift that she prepared for you. But I don’t know why it was thrown in the bush.”

Jian Yunnao attempted to explain the situation to his brother. He handed the paper bag over so Jian Yuncheng could examine it.

“Oh? Is that so?” Jian Yuncheng replied. He turned his face to look at Mo s.h.i.+yun’s expression.

Mo s.h.i.+yun met Yuncheng’s gaze. She desperately tried to suppress her nervousness. She needed to act as calm as possible.

“I’m sorry, Young Master Yuncheng. I didn’t know that the paper bag wasn’t mine. I didn’t look at it carefully. When I saw Aunt An bring a paper bag in, I a.s.sumed it was mine.”

Mo s.h.i.+yun apologized for the situation. She confessed her mistake with a sincere att.i.tude.

Jian Yunnao also spoke up for Mo s.h.i.+yun, “Brother, it’s not s.h.i.+yun’s fault. I don’t why someone would throw away a gift that someone else left at the door.”

“Well, that’s unfortunate.”

Jian Yuncheng merely commented on the situation before he went back to his study.

When Mo s.h.i.+yun watched Jian Yuncheng leave, she felt incredibly uneasy.

She didn’t know why she felt uneasy. However, the way Jian Yuncheng had said ‘unfortunate’ made her feel that he was suspecting something.

However, Jian Yunnao apologized to Mo s.h.i.+yun. “I’m so sorry. I wasn’t clear about the situation. Did I scare you?”

Mo s.h.i.+yun shook her head, “It’s not your fault. It’s just a misunderstanding. It’s clarified now.”

“Well, thank you for not blaming me.”

Mo s.h.i.+yun was as understanding and empathetic as ever.
