Chapter 302: Chapter 302: How Did You End Up Together With Her?_1
Just as she finished dressing, Aunt Li stood up and came towards her.
She thought Aunt Li had noticed her attempt to escape earlier.
“Miss Jian, let’s go home. I’m not feeling well, I don’t want to continue watching.” Aunt Li told her with an unwell expression.
For an elder like her to watch a horror film was truly torturous. If she returned to it again, she was sure to be tormented by heart disease.
A pang of guilt twisted in Jian Yufei’s heart.
Since her escape plan had failed, there was no need for her to go on watching.
“Alright, let’s go home.” She rose to her feet and left the viewing hall with Aunt Li.
She wondered whether Yan Yue and Ruan Tianling had already come to watch the movie.
Upon reaching the ticket lobby, Jian Yufei spotted them still lingering around.
She tugged at Aunt Li’s sleeve to discreetly exchange glances.
No way would she allow this to happen!
Facing Yan Yue’s sharp gaze, Aunt Li forced herself to remain steady, chuckling “Today, I planned to buy something for my daughter-in-law, but I’m bad at selecting gifts, so I asked Ms. Jian to accompany me shopping.”
“Oh? What did you plan on buying for her? Maybe I can help you with your selection.” Yan Yue gave a small smirk, clearly not convinced by Aunt Li’s explanation.
Uncertain of how to answer, Aunt Li’s eyes flickered nervously. Luckily, Jian Yufei spoke up,”It’s a necklace, but we’ve already bought it so there’s no need for more suggestions.”
Without sparing her a glance, Yan Yue elegantly smiled at Aunt Li,”Can I take a look? I want to see what kind of necklace you bought.”
“Well...” Aunt Li turned to Jian Yufei, who proceeded to unzip her bag and handed over a gold jewelry box.
Aunt Li recognized the box—it was from when she accompanied Jian Yufei to the mall to buy a gold necklace.
Smiling happily, she took the box and handed it over to Yan Yue.
Seeing the box did exist, Yan Yue thought her suspicions might have been wrong after all.
She took it, glance carelessly and returned the box to Aunt Li,”Aunt Li, you can ask for my opinion next time you’re shopping. This necklace is too old-fashioned, not suitable for young women. But it suits you just fine.”
She was indirectly snubbing Jian Yufei’s poor taste.
