Chapter 412: Chapter 412 I Don’t Need It_1

Chu Yanxi bit her lip with an aggrieved expression, her eyes reddening, on the verge of crying without letting the tears fall.

She knew that no one could really tell if the amulet was genuine or not.

And her intention in giving the amulet was out of concern for Lu Zhanyu.

With Lu Zhanyu’s intelligence and maturity beyond that of his peers, it made no sense for him not to understand this.

Chu Yanxi felt that Lu Zhanyu should be able to discern right from wrong based on her conversation with Qin Susu.

She expected Lu Zhanyu to speak a fair word for her.

"I don’t know whether it’s real or fake, but I know I don’t need it. You take it back and use it yourself."

Lu Zhanyu returned the amulet to Chu Yanxi.

"Cousin?" Chu Yanxi’s face showed a wounded expression, and now she truly felt like crying, "I just want cousin to be healthy..."

"I appreciate your kindness," Lu Zhanyu said indifferently.

His aloofness toward Chu Yanxi wasn’t just because she had previously mocked him, but more so because her recent behaviors raised his suspicions, especially the last time she fell into the water.

Lu Zhanyu’s indifference foiled all of Chu Yanxi’s calculations.

She realized she had still underestimated Lu Zhanyu’s partiality for Susu.

Unwilling to accept this, Chu Yanxi turned her head and continued to probe Susu, "Do you dislike me giving cousin gifts?"

Chu Yanxi tried to manipulate Susu once more into admitting she disliked her.

"No, why would I dislike you giving brother gifts?" Susu responded, "You’re not using my things to gift someone else, so there’s no reason for me to dislike it."

How bizarre, she only said that her thing was fake, why would she say she disliked it?

Even if she liked the amulet, it wouldn’t become real.

Susu’s answers were straightforward and decisive, leaving Chu Yanxi uncertain how to respond.

Lu Zhanyu didn’t want to continue talking with Chu Yanxi. He turned to Susu and said, "Old Zhang bought you a new picture book. Shall I take you to read it?"

"Yes! I want to see the new picture book!" Susu immediately perked up.

Picture books are enjoyable; she loves reading them.

Picture books from human society are good stuff that they don’t have in the Divine Realm, so fascinating!

Then Chu Yanxi saw Lu Zhanyu take Susu inside the house, leaving her alone in the courtyard.

After a while, Chu Yanxi clenched her fists in frustration.

Her plans had been going smoothly until she encountered Qin Susu—all her schemes were thrown into disarray!

When Lin Yushan finished preparing the pastries and called for the three children in the courtyard, only Chu Yanxi remained.

Upon seeing Lin Yushan, Chu Yanxi ran over and clung to Lin Yushan’s leg, crying pitifully.

"Auntie Lin..."

"What’s the matter, Xiaoxi? Don’t cry, tell auntie what happened," Lin Yushan quickly embraced Chu Yanxi, comforting her tenderly.

"Auntie Lin, cousin doesn’t want to play with me..."

"It’s okay, it’s okay. Your cousin just has a colder personality. He’s like this with everyone, not because he dislikes Xiaoxi," Lin Yushan hastily explained.

"But he’s very nice to Qin Susu... It must be because Xiaoxi isn’t good, so he doesn’t like Xiaoxi..." Chu Yanxi cried loudly, sounding very pitiable.

But upon closer examination, one could see that although she was crying out loud, her eyes were without tears.

The redness in her eyes was only because she kept rubbing them.

Lin Yushan, however, didn’t notice these details. In her eyes, all children were innocent and lovely, and even if occasionally willful, they could be taught.
