36 Giving Cold Shoulder Again

The book got released in the market just a week ago, and from what she jeard from Gu Jinyu was that the book was selling well.

Everyone was very eager to buy this but the production team can not keep up with the demand of readers. 

He was very satisfied with the outcome, and Chen Yu was also contented with this. If the sell goes well, than she will have enough money and time to get things done.

Besides, she also requested Gu Jinyu for a favor. If the sale goes well, he will help her without any second thought.

But she didn't thought that her brothers will also fight over her book. A faint but warm smile spread across her face as she wathced them fight from side.

Mother Chen also started to laugh while standing by her side after she saw them like this.

It just so happened that every one of them wants to have different books, but the price of these books were not that low to buy them one for each.

Also Chen Yu's birthday was near at hand. She never got to celebrate a birthday with her family. So Mother Chen wanted to give her daughter a proper birthday celebration.

The Chen brothers also knew her plan. So they're also saving their pocket money to buy the present for Chen Yu.

But Chen Yu herself didn't had any excitement regarding this. Because she didn't knew when her birthday was!

Well, for the real Chen Yu, her birthday celebration was always a grand event, but her parents only used this as an excuse for doing buisness deals.

And for Sher, it was another thing that was more tragic than Chen Yu. She didn't knew about her real birthday.

Nor she ever celebrated her birthday, when she was little the Orphanage never did something like birthday party.

And when she grew up and joined the organisation, she was always busy with missions and other things. She never really got any time to live her life as a normal person.

That doesn't matter to her, even now. She was taking this life as another mission, so she only looked at the things she thought was important. She didn't thought about her own life.

The brothers has already knew her presence, so they satrted to call her.

"Hey! Yu'er is here."

"Yu'er, come here right now! And tell them to give that book to me!"

"No! This is mine."

"Yu will give us a decision on who will get the book!"

"She will definitely give me the first choice!"

"No! It's me."

From there argument, Chen Yu felt dizzy that she can't even say who is who.

Annoyed, Chen Yu said with a neutral expression on her face, "I'm not joining your stupid arguments. Help yourself."

Then she walked away with five pair of eyes following her.

Bam!

The door of room closed with a big sound, and then Chen brothers face fell.

"Well, it's your fault, after all. So as she said, help yourself," Meng Ningzhi also shrugged as she walked away.

This cold shoulder that Chen Yu gave them was something that was not wrong at all from Mother Chen's perspective.

Her son's were at fault for what happened, so it's just right for them to go after Chen Yu to get her forgiveness.

"See? This is just how mother's dote on their daughter," Chen Li shrugged his shoulder.

"Are you jealous?" Chen Xi mocked him.

"Hmph," Chen Li pretended to snicker as he turned his head away from them.

"Well, I have to get going now, suit yourself," Chen Mo stood up as he walked towards their room.

Others didn't have anything to do, so they continued fighting.

Chen Yu went back to her as she closed the door, then she picked up the phone from her desk as she called Gu Jinyu.

"Hello, how have you been, Sir?", Chen asked with a smile on her face.

"I'm alright, what about you? Your book is really such a hot topic," Gu Jinyu was in a good mood. And now her call made him even more happy.

"Um… it's all thanks to your conference. I'm just working a little hard, that's all," Chen Yu flattered the old man.

"Did you contact the persons I asked you to?" Chen Yu's voice became serious this time.

"Don't worry, it's done the moment you told me to." Gu Jinyu immediately responded to assure her. After all, this is a favor she asked him for the first time, how can he dili-dally in a serious work like this?

"Thank you very much. And also, keep it a secret from everyone that I asked you for this," Chen Yu had a gentle smile on her face as she breathed a sigh of relief.

She has to work hard for her family, and took another step in this. She was really happy.

"I have something else to ask from you," Chen Yu hesitated before saying this.

But the old man's eyes were sparkling when he heard what she said. 

"What is it this time? Tell me, tell me," Gu Jinyu stated to act like a child. This made Chen Yu speechless.

"I'll tell you when I come over," Chen Yu said with a mysterious smile on her face.

***

One week later, 

Chen Yu went to the school as usual. The situation at school has been peaceful.

Wen Yue or any other students didn't came to peek on her as well.

Because she is busy currying favor with other students and teachers when Chen Yu laid flat.

But there has been other commotions as well, which Chen Yu ignored today as well.

"Yu, are you sure you don't want to hear the news?" Zhao Lan screamed in her ear after coming here running with all her might.

"I said you before that I'm not interested at all. Don't come here and find me with these stupid news," Chen Yu shrugged her off as she again buried her mouth in her book again.
