The boss is back and she doesn’t pretend to be a fake daughter anymore

Zhou Shiji took the jade Buddha, and the moment his palm touched the jade Buddha, he felt enveloped by a warm magical power.

The feeling was different from the one when Chu Beihe touched him before, but it was vaguely similar.

Zhou actually vaguely knew why he failed when he tried to steal Gao Qin's fans.

This jade Buddha has a magical power that can eliminate disasters.

Such magical power will not reject him just because he is a merman.

Zhou actually felt the power of the jade Buddha, and then looked at Shen Shiyuan in front of him. After two seconds of hesitation, he asked her,

"Don't you know what this jade Buddha is used for?"

Shen Shiyuan: ???

In fact, Zhou knew that she really didn't know as soon as he saw her expression, so he carefully explained to her the function of the jade Buddha.

Simply put, this jade Buddha is a good thing that carries Buddhist power and can ward off disasters and bring good luck.

"If you keep it for yourself, you will be able to survive any danger you encounter in the future."

Zhou actually asked her seriously,

"Are you sure you still want to give me such a good thing?"

Zhou actually really wanted this jade Buddha, but he knew that it was a rare and good thing for the other party, so he couldn't just pretend not to know and accept it.

Isn't this intentional taking advantage?

He can't take such a big advantage.

Zhou Shishi asked seriously, but Shen Shiyuan was obviously stunned.

After hearing this, Jiang Xuxu and Chu Beihe looked at Zhou Shiji with a little more appreciation.

It is said that demons are cunning by nature, but that is just people's generalization about individual evil demons.

Perhaps it is because someone has experienced the cruelty of evil demons, or perhaps it is because the demons are different from ordinary people in terms of abnormality and power.

People always have a fear of the unknown and are afraid of getting hurt.

But in fact, how could a being that can be conceived by heaven and earth and give birth to intelligence be all evil?

At least among the monsters that Jiang Xuxu has come into contact with, most of them still maintain their pure nature even after experiencing the baptism of longer years.

Like pepper diagram,

Like the teacher of Wu and Shu,

Like the demon students of the demon academy,

Just like Zhou actually.

Neither of them expressed any opinion on Zhou Shi's actions. This was his opportunity, and it was his own choice whether he accepted it or returned it.

Wang Shian on the side had a conflicted look on his face. He knew that what Zhou did was actually right, but secretly, he still felt a little reluctant for him.

Who wouldn’t happily hide away something when they get it?

But he was still stupid enough to return it.

Tsk, what a silly fish.

But if he hadn't been so stupid, he wouldn't have been saved in the first place.

Shen Shiyuan was indeed a little surprised after hearing what Zhou Shiji said. After all, a family like theirs had obtained quite a few consecrated jade pieces from all over the place.

Either it was requested by family members, or it was given by relatives or someone else. As for this jade Buddha, she only knew that her grandfather's generation got it from somewhere.

At that time, in order to thank Gao Qin for "saving my life", I sent them out together to express my gratitude.

She really didn't know that this jade Buddha was so useful.

If she had known at the beginning, she might not have given it.

but now……

Shen Shiyuan thought about it seriously, and said to Zhou Shishi,

"I said I'd give it to you, and we in the Shen family never go back on our words. Besides..."

She paused here and said,

"My grandfather always said that when the moon is full, it will wane; when the water is full, it will overflow. One cannot always think of taking all the benefits in the world.

Our Shen family has already possessed wealth and power that an ordinary person cannot possess in ten lifetimes. If we are still not satisfied, we will never be satisfied, and we will end up losing what we have now.

Since you said this jade Buddha is so powerful, it must be useful to you, so I did not make a mistake in giving you this thank you gift."

Shen Shiyuan spoke in an open-minded manner, without any sign of trying to brag, so Zhou Shiji stopped being polite to her immediately.

Anyway, he had said everything he needed to say, and it was she who insisted on not taking it back.

He accepted it with peace of mind, and even remembered to wipe it carefully with a handkerchief before putting it on himself.

He did not forget that this thing was worn by Gao Qin before, and he was a little disgusted with it.

Shen Shiyuan became interested in his expression and suddenly said,

"Since you are my savior, I will arrange for you what the Shen family gave to Gao Qin before. I can even give you the chance to be the son-in-law of the Shen family, which Gao Qin wanted before."

As Shen Shiyuan spoke, she did not forget to wink at Zhou Shiji.

Wang Anshi and his companions were stunned upon hearing this, and Gao Qin, who was standing nearby, almost vomited blood.

What does this woman mean?!

She was indifferent to his advances before, but now she is actively saying that she wants to give Zhou Shiji a chance...

Why? !

That Zhou wasn’t even a human!

Is she sick? How could she fall in love with a monster?

Zhou actually didn't react at first, but when he understood what she meant, he took a step back with a serious look on his face and said without thinking,

"I don't want it. I refuse. Don't even think about it."

He refused so bluntly that Wang Anshi almost knelt down in front of him.

Brother, even if we want to refuse, can't we be more tactful?

After all, she is the daughter of the Shen family, don't you have any dignity? !

Shen Shiyuan felt humiliated after being rejected so directly. No matter how rational she was, she was still a girl in her twenties after all.

I couldn't help but ask him,

"why?"

Zhou Shiji said seriously, "Because I don't want to become a bubble!"

The story of mermaids is very popular among the merpeople.

But it is usually used as a negative example by the tribe members to teach the younger generations.

Zhou actually doesn’t like the mermaid in the story either.

He thought she was sick.

For a man who was not worthy, she not only lost her voice, but also had to endure the pain of stepping on a blade, and finally turned into foam.

Zhou actually wouldn't do such a stupid thing.

and……

"I already have a mermaid I like. She's so pretty."

He paused and added,

"Of course you are pretty, but you are a human being and you don't have a beautiful fish tail. There is no future for you and me."

Zhou Shiji said this, looking at Shen Shiyuan in front of him with an apologetic and serious look, as if to say, "You'd better give up on me."

Shen Shiyuan was almost made to laugh out of anger.

Is she a person, or is it her fault?

Fortunately, she just wanted to tease him on a whim, otherwise she would have been really angry to death.

If it were some paranoid little princess in her circle, she might even find a bunch of Taoist priests to lock him up in an aquarium.

Shen Shiyuan felt that she needed to remind his agent to teach him the art of speaking in the future.

Seeing that Shen Shiyuan didn't look angry at all, Wang Anshi also breathed a sigh of relief.

Jiang Xuxu had been listening at the side, and after thinking for a while, he suddenly took out a jade talisman from his bag.

"Although Miss Shen gave me the Jade Buddha, if you need it, this jade talisman of mine can also protect you or your family from three disasters."

Just think of it as making a good connection.

Although Shen Shiyuan had said generously before that the moon would wane after it was full, she naturally could not refuse such a surprise that was delivered to her door. Her eyes lit up immediately and she asked,

"How much? I'll buy it!"
