Chapter 1391: Sandalwood Bead String

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation | Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Shi Xi’s eyes were indifferent. “There’s no need. My friend gave this to me. It doesn’t matter how much it costs.”

However, Yan Linlang did not give up. As if she did not hear Shi Xi’s rejection, she insisted, “Can I try it on?”

Shi Xi: “…”

No way!

A string of sandalwood beads in exchange for her violet jade?

Why was her violet jade bracelet more expensive?

Shi Xi was silent for a moment before saying, “If you like jade bracelets, I’ll accompany you to the jewelry store. This was given to me by someone else, so I can’t give it to someone else.”

“I’ve seen many in the jewelry store, and yours is the best. Since you don’t want to lend it to me, then forget it,” Yan Linlang said regretfully.

Shi Xi did not feel embarra.s.sed.

She only heaved a sigh of relief.

Hua Ruoling came down from upstairs. When she saw Yan Linlang, she said in surprise, “Sister Linlang, why are you here?”

“I’m friends with Shi Xi. I’m here to askher out. Are you coming too?” Yan Linlang asked with a smile.

When Hua Ruoling heard that she was going to ask Shi Xi out, she immediately lost interest. However, she wanted to curry favor with Yan Linlang. “Where are you going?”

Shi Xi: ?

I didn’t say I was going out to play!

“I just bought a new yacht. I’m having a party tonight. You can call more friends over,” Yan Linlang said generously.

“Alright!” Hua Ruoling heard that there were many people and became interested.

Shi Xi was not interested.

She never liked crowds.

“I still have something to do tonight, so I won’t be going. You guys have fun,” Shi Xi declined politely.

Hua Ruoling was even happier when she heard that.

She had never liked Shi Xi.

Yan Linlang frowned slightly and said, “I’ve already told my friend that I’ll definitely invite you. If you don’t go, won’t I lose face?”

“Tell them that you’re sorry.”

Anyway, she didn’t agree to it.

Besides…

Since when were she and Yan Linlang friends?

Shi Xi felt suffocated just thinking about it.

“Are you not giving me face?” Yan Linlang was rarely rejected by others, and she felt embarra.s.sed at this moment.

“Shi Xi will definitely go. Sister Linlang, don’t be angry.”

Shi Xi: ?

Yan Linlang had always been flattered. She heaved a sigh of relief and said, “Shi Xi, the yacht will be waiting for you tonight.”

Yan Linlang picked up a call and left.

Shi Xi felt that there was no beginning or end to it.

Why was Yan Linlang looking for her?

“When did you meet Sister Linlang?” asked Hua Ruoling.

“We just met.” Shi Xi leaned against the sofa, not understanding what Yan Linlang was trying to do.

Hua Ruoling did not believe her. “You just met you and she’s inviting you to a party?”

Shi Xi shrugged.

She didn’t really want to go either.

Hua Ruoling saw the small box on the table and picked it up. “What’s this?”

“It’s from Yan Linlang. I think it’s something like what, sandalwood beads?” Shi Xi glanced at it.

“It’s quite nice. It’s a waste to give it to you.” Hua Ruoling took it out and gestured on her own hand for a long time.

Shi Xi remained silent.

Hua Ruoling put it back on and asked, “What do you think?”

The round sandalwood beads were strung together, making her wrist look slender and beautiful.

“It’s alright,” Shi Xi said casually.

“Lend it to me for a few days.” Hua Ruoling didn’t wait for her to speak and spoke first, “I’m just wearing it for a few days. You won’t be so stingy, right?”

Shi Xi did not feel anything for Yan Linlang’s gift. “Wear it if you want.”

She didn’t like Yan Linlang anyway.

She didn’t like the things that Yan Linlang gave her.

However, courtesy needed to be reciprocated.

Yan Linlang seemed to have taken a fancy to her violet jade.
