Chapter 369: Midnight Call
Ji Yan clenched his fists. His eyes were filled with more dissatisfaction. It was just a monthly test. His younger brother was really annoying. Ji Mo’s face was full of pride. Ji Yan could not bear to see that and said, "It has always been the same ranking. You haven’t even improved. How could you ask for rewards?"
"I really want to have improvement. I don’t want to let sister-in-law down." Ji Mo smiled. He was being shy and polite. His fair and tender face was filled with regret. "It’s a pity that I’m already number one in the grade. There’s no way for me to improve further." There was a crafty look in his eyes.
"How can you improve if you’re already number one? If you can maintain it, you deserve a reward." Shen Hanxing ignored the brothers’ little fight. She smiled and said, "It’s fine if your big brother doesn’t want to give you a reward. I’ll give it to you. Tell me, is there anything you want?"
Ji Yan was angry. It was just number one in the grade. He had received countless awards since he was young. He would show her all the trophies and Certificates of Honor one day!
Touching the stud on his earlobe, Ji Mo suddenly said, "Sister-in-law, can I have a pair of ear studs?" He was afraid that Shen Hanxing would misunderstand, so he added, "I want something just like this. I can wear them on alternate days." These ear studs were given to him by Shen Hanxing. He had never changed them ever since he put them on.
Ji Mo could no longer remember why he had his ears pierced back then. It could be either his rebellious impulse or some other reason. But now, he was pleased that he had these piercings. His sister-in-law gifted this to him. He was the only one among the siblings to get it.
"Do you like ear studs?" Shen Hanxing was surprised. That was such a small request. She had no reason to reject at all. She nodded and said, "Then I’ll choose a suitable one for you." She took it very seriously.
Ji Mo showed a genuine smile as she said, "Thank you, Sister-in-law!"
