Paranoid Girlfriend[GL] - (Travel through books)

Chapter 45 Teacher 22

Even if she did, no one would understand.

The behavior she was showing now was that of another person, not herself.

Living in someone else's "character setting" like this left her with no freedom of her own.

Even something as important as her birthday couldn't be celebrated on her actual day.

This wasn't the life she wanted.

Dai Shiyuan sighed silently and lost her appetite for the remaining cake. She stood up and looked at the cake, saying, "I won't eat anymore. Put the rest in the fridge, and I'll bring it to Zuo jia at school tomorrow."

Hearing the gloominess in her words, Shan Yaxin felt more and more puzzled and couldn't help but ask, "Xiaoyuan, do you have something on your mind?"

"I'm fine," Dai Shiyuan quickly replied, her departing figure looking somewhat lonely.

Shan Yaxin's eyes flickered, still unable to understand the reason behind it all, so she went to tidy up the cake.

Dai Shiyuan returned to her room, but the discomfort in her heart still lingered.

Today's cake was very delicious, but she didn't enjoy it at all and felt suffocated in her heart.

If only she could go back to the real world, where although the material conditions weren't as abundant, she wouldn't have to live in constant fear every day.

Dai Shiyuan sighed heavily and lay on the bed for a while. Outside, there was a knock on the door.

"Xiaoyuan, Sister-in-law has a gift for you," Shan Yaxin said from outside the door.

Dai Shiyuan rubbed her hair in irritation at the news, but calmed down after a moment and got up to open the door.

Seeing the gentle smile on the female lead's face, she suppressed her inner restlessness and asked with her eyes.

Shan Yaxin originally wanted to play a guessing game with the other party about the gift, but seeing the younger sister's unhappy expression, she had to skip this step and took out the gift from behind and said, "Xiaoyuan, open it quickly and I hope you'll like it."

Dai Shiyuan glanced at it with suspicion. It was a gift wrapped in a red box, small and exquisite.

From the exquisite packaging, it was clear that this gift was not cheap. It wasn't until the moment she actually opened it that Dai Shiyuan was stunned, and her eyes lit up with surprise.

The gift that the female lead gave her was the necklace she had always wanted.

This necklace could be said to be limited edition worldwide and was very much in line with every girl's princess dream.

She had seen it in a magazine before, but could only sigh silently in her heart because of its price and limited availability.

She had collected that magazine and would take it out from time to time to satisfy her inner fantasy.

Now her dream had come true, and she could hardly believe it.

"How did you get this necklace?" Dai Shiyuan held the necklace lovingly, her eyes sparkling, and her appearance was completely different from her previous depressed state.

Shan Yaxin breathed a sigh of relief in her heart, smiled and said, "That's a secret."

When Dai Shiyuan heard this, her excited mood suddenly cooled down a lot.

She almost forgot that this was a novel world, where there was no limited edition that the female lead couldn't buy.

Even if it was something that only existed in the world, it had to be prepared for the female lead.

"Thank you, sister-in-law, I really like it." Dai Shiyuan smiled happily, her eyebrows and eyes curved with pleasure.

Even if everything at this moment was just a dream, it was enough to make her very happy.

Seeing Dai Shiyuan's excited smile, Shan Yaxin put her hand on the somewhat messy head and said softly, "Xiaoyuan looks best when she smiles like this. Don't keep a straight face all the time, otherwise no one will dare to pursue you."

Dai Shiyuan's body stiffened suddenly, not used to being treated like a child by the female lead, and retorted softly after a pause, "I don't want anyone to pursue me."

Even though the female lead didn't say it explicitly in the last sentence, she knew that it was an allusion to the fact that some boys in their class liked her.

She was definitely going to leave this world and didn't want to have any entanglements with too many people, especially feelings related to love.

"Okay, our Xiaoyuan is the best, no need to pursue." Shan Yaxin soothed her, with a smile on her face containing doting.

Dai Shiyuan suddenly felt like a cat whose fur had been smoothed down by the female lead's comfort, and the key was that her words really calmed her down.

This strange feeling made her feel a little uncomfortable, but she didn't hate it.

Dai Shiyuan carefully held the necklace and sincerely looked at the female lead and said, "Thank you for everything you prepared for me tonight. I really like it and appreciate it."

"It's good as long as Xiaoyuan likes it. You don't have to be so polite." Shan Yaxin withdrew her hand, smiled lightly, and continued, "We are going back to the main house together this Saturday, and then my parents will help you celebrate your birthday again."

"Going back to the main house?" Dai Shiyuan was surprised, her voice involuntarily rising, and her expression became difficult.

After leaving the villa, she had no intention of going back, and even planned to find an excuse to stay at school for the summer vacation. She didn't expect to return to that depressing place so soon.

Dai Shiyuan frowned unwillingly, struggling whether to refuse.

Shan Yaxin understood the meaning behind it and explained with a smile, "Actually, your eighteenth birthday should have been a grand dance party, inviting all relatives, friends, and business partners to celebrate, but Mom thought it was too extravagant and wasteful, so we're keeping it simple and having a simple family celebration for you."

Hearing this, Dai Shiyuan breathed a sigh of relief.

Not having to face those unfamiliar people was a good thing for her.

"Seeing Xiaoyuan like this, do you agree with Mom's decision?" Shan Yaxin asked strangely.

This birthday party was supposed to be her sister-in-law's grand coming-of-age ceremony, to let others know about the Dai family's daughter. But Dai's mother's behavior was equivalent to hiding her sister-in-law and not letting others know about her. It was such a serious problem, yet her sister-in-law didn't protest.

TO BE CONTINUE...

It really made her feel puzzled.
