Chapter 885: Token of Love
After a pause, he said, "I know you and Yinyin don’t lack anything, but if there’s anything you need help with, please tell me. Even though these old bones of mine are indeed old, I can still be of help with some matters."
Lu Jihan smiled and said, "How are you old? You’re still young."
"You rascal, you really know how to talk."
President Shi Mai’er laughed and tapped him, looking quite pleased, as if his mood had improved a lot.
The two of them chatted for a while longer, and then President Shi Mai’er waved his hand and said to Lu Jihan, "Alright, you can go out now. Let Yinyin come in, I have something to give her."
"Alright."
Lu Jihan nodded, then turned and went out.
As he came out, he saw Song Yinyin carrying a tea tray and said, "His Excellency the President is looking for you, you should go in."
"Alright." Song Yinyin nodded and quickly carried the tea tray inside.
She gently pushed the door open before entering the bedroom and sat down by the bedside.
Feeling President Shi Mai’er’s gaze linger on her face, Song Yinyin felt a bit uneasy, not knowing where to place her hands.
She pursed her lips, recalling how she had been thinking about how to face him.
After all, she had hated him and resented him, but in truth, nothing is more important than family.
She thought that she had no family left in this world, but heaven let her find her biological father.
Perhaps, as Lu Jihan said, it was all the best arrangement by fate.
With this thought, her heart finally settled.
She took a deep breath and looked up calmly at Shi Mai’er.
President Shi Mai’er knew that Song Yinyin was not yet willing to call him "Dad," so he didn’t have high expectations.
After all, they had just reunited.
And he had secretly gone to do a DNA test without telling Yinyin, so it was only natural that Yinyin would feel resentful towards him.
He sighed deeply, shook his head, then pointed with his hand to a drawer beside the bedside table.
"Yinyin, could you open that drawer for me? There’s a peachwood box inside, could you hand it to me?"
Song Yinyin nodded, stood up, and opened the drawer.
The drawer wasn’t locked and opened easily; inside, there was indeed a peachwood box.
The peachwood box looked very exquisite; although it was a bit old, the peachwood exterior was intact, with intricate patterns, well-preserved.
President Shi Mai’er took the peachwood box, his fingers gently caressing the patterns on it, doing so carefully and tenderly as if it were a precious treasure he feared he might accidentally break.
Then, he cautiously opened the box, revealing a beautiful jade bracelet inside.
One glance at its quality and you could tell that the jade bracelet was very valuable.
They heard President Shi Mai’er say, "This bracelet was something I got from an antique-loving friend when your mother and I were dating. Your mother liked it very much, so I spent all my savings to buy it for her as a token of our love. Later, when she broke up with me, she returned this bracelet to me..."
Recalling the events of that time, he still felt a pang of sorrow.
"Honestly, back then, I almost smashed it in frustration, but fortunately, at the last moment, I changed my mind. Looking back now, I’m glad I didn’t impulsively break it."
He took a deep breath to calm his emotions.
"Now, I’m giving it to you."
