Jay brought the children to Tourmaline Estate to visit Grand Old Master Ares. The estate was especially lively with the gathering of a few of the Ares family branches.
Jean was a self-claimed pick-up artist. When Jean saw that Jay was holding onto his phone and texting the entire night, he could not stand it anymore.
He snatched Jay's phone, threw it aside, and said, " Brother, is Sister-in-law answering any of your calls? I s she replying to any of your texts?"
Jay glared at Jean with an angry expression. How dare this kid try to teach him a lesson?!
When Jean saw Jay's expression, he knew he had hit his sore spot. Jean smiled and said, "She’s not answering your calls or returning your text messages, i s that right? Let me tell you, there are only two reasons for this."
Jay straightened up and listened carefully to what Jean had to say next.
Jean said, "The first reason is that your writing is subpar and your words can't move her."
Jay gave a scowl. How dare this kid question his writing skills? Since he was young, he had been
praised for the level of depth and sharpness in his writing. He even got a perfect score for his college entrance essay.
Jean put a hand on Jay's shoulder and said with a cheeky smile, "I know that your writing skills are good. However, that doesn’t mean that you're good with writing love letters." 2
Jay thought about it for a moment and said, "Show me the love letters that you've written for others."
When Jean saw that Jay was acting modest and diligent to learn, he boasted, "My love letters are all of textbook-standard. If you want my love letters, you have to give me something in return."
"Do you want money?" Jay said.
"Oh, my brother, feelings will be hurt if we talk about money."
A cold expression appeared on Jay's face. If Jean dared to blackmail him, he would make sure that he was aware of the consequences.
