"I hope it's what you said." He sighed, then made up his mind. "I'll call her back later."

"Mm. Sometimes it's not a bad thing to be a little more particular." she said softly.

"One more thing." After he had finished talking about his troubles, he suddenly said to her, "Right now, there may be a problem with Cloud Night. If it's convenient for you, just resign, so as not to implicate you. "

"Is that so?" She thought for a moment and felt an indescribable feeling in her heart. "What question?"

"Stock, do you remember the 8% share that Si Lianye gave Le Le? Previously, I was just buying shares from a few retail investors, and my progress was always slow. Now that I have Le Le's portion, the people I have arranged for Yun Ye's party can also speak. "

"That's great." She forced a smile, but in her heart, she was somewhat hesitant.

"Xiran." He suddenly called her name.

"Hmm, what's wrong?"

"Are you …" He asked hesitantly, "Do you not wish to take revenge?"

Her heart jolted as she replied without hesitation, "No, are you joking with me? I'm thinking of ways to take revenge every day, and how to make him regret it."

"Is that so? But I always think you're not very interested when I talk about these things. " He slowly said, "Actually, if you don't like it, we can stop."

"No, why stop? Isn't everything alright now? " She forced a dry smile, trying to hide the feelings in the depths of her body. "You've misunderstood me. I'm just a little tired." With that, she reacted again, almost biting her tongue out of frustration.

He said meaningfully, "Oh, I'm too tired. Take a good rest. My plan hasn't reached the point of no return. If you change your mind, you can always let me know."

"Well, don't worry, I won't." She refused to show weakness and told him firmly.

He chuckled and hung up.

She touched the phone in her hand as her emotions rose.

Was she really soft-hearted?

No?

That was impossible. How could she forget?

Forget that cold, hell-like night, and that … Unformed child...

Her heart started to hurt so much that she could barely breathe. She held onto her chest and breathed in and out for a long time before finally calming down.

Her child...

The only child in her life …

Her vision blurred and she suddenly fainted.

After an unknown amount of time, she opened her eyes and looked out the window. It was already afternoon.

She was stunned for a moment before realizing what had happened to her.

Although she had already gone through rest, she could still feel the soreness in the depths of her body.

She moved her body. While she was frowning, she suddenly found that the phone beside her pillow was vibrating non-stop.

Only then did she realize how she had woken up. It was her phone that had woken her up.

When she thought of what she had thought of before, her heart ached again.

She pursed her lips, picked up her phone and looked at her contact list. She paused for a moment before answering the call.

"Hello? Are you asleep? I just called you a couple of times and you didn't get a response. " Si Lianye told her on the phone, her voice warm.

"Oh really? I just woke up. What's the matter? "

"I want to ask you, what do you want to eat at noon?" He didn't notice anything unusual about her.

"No need." Her body wasn't feeling well, and she wasn't in a good mood, so she was determined by instinct. "I don't want to eat."

"That won't do. How can we not eat? Alright, I know a place where the Michelin Level 4 restaurant has just opened. Let's go there to eat." He tried to interest her.

But she really had no appetite. "I really don't want to eat, okay?"

Si Lianye paused for a moment, and did not agree, but said instead: "You rest first, I'll go back later."

She answered with a slight grunt, then looked at her cell phone in a daze.

To be honest, she had already violated their decision to temporarily put the past behind them, but she was only a mortal. There was no way she could do that.

Si Lianye came back later than she had expected, but she was still smiling merrily when she returned, looking like she was in a good mood.

She was sitting at the head of the bed, looking at her cell phone. When she heard his voice, she smiled at him and said, "You're back."

It was as if a virtuous wife was waiting for her husband to return home. The sight of it was so cozy that his anxious expression relaxed a little.

He walked in slowly with a box in his hand.

He put the box on the table and then sat down on the edge of the bed and looked at her with concern. Do you want to see a doctor? "

She immediately shook her head. "No need. It's fine. I'm just a little tired."

He knew how persistent she was about this sort of thing, so he frowned as he observed her expression. Although her complexion wasn't good, it was still much better than before.

Reluctantly, he looked at her and said, "If your discomfort gets worse, just let me know, okay?"

She nodded lightly. "Don't worry. My body is mine. I cherish it more than anyone else."

Looking at how weak she sounded, he felt more and more regretful and guilty. If he had known earlier, he wouldn't have tormented her like this.

He turned around and opened the food box, revealing the tasty dishes inside, then said to her: "I brought something for you to eat. Look, it's all your favorite taste."

He was afraid that she wouldn't eat, so he specially bought dishes that suited her taste. But now, it seemed that he had miscalculated. It was obvious that she didn't have any energy left.

He tried to raise her interest. "I'll give you a surprise if you just eat it, old boy."

"What surprise?" She looked at him in confusion.

However, he revealed a mysterious smile, picked up a chopstick of shrimp and brought it to her mouth.

Curiosity rose in her heart. Didn't he go to the company? What other surprises could there be?

However, seeing how he was so secretive and unwilling to speak, she pouted and slowly ate her food.

After eating half a bowl of rice and drinking a bowl of delicious soup, he put the food aside with a smile on his face.

Judging from her weak and listless appearance, if she didn't want to eat anymore, she would have to be sent to the hospital for nutrition injections.

Fortunately, she looked fine now.

She wiped her hands clean and looked at him with a face full of dissatisfaction. "Alright, you can say it now. What kind of surprise is it?"

He blinked and mysteriously took out a small box.

She was surprised a little when she saw it, because she felt that the Logo on top looked very familiar. Wasn't that the shop that she helped Xiao Rou buy bangles last time?

She suddenly had a premonition and looked at his big hand.

He brought the box to her hand and said, "Here, open it for me."

She suspiciously looked at him and asked, "It can't be what I was thinking, right …"

As he said that, he opened the box. Sure enough, he saw the beautiful blue diamond bracelet from yesterday.

Now that it was opened right in front of her eyes, the shocking effect caused her to suck in a breath of cold air.

"Very pretty." she murmured.

"Do you like it?" His eyes stared deeply at her. "I saw that you seemed to like it, so I bought it for you."

She looked at him and wanted to say that she actually didn't like him very much. You misread her, but she didn't know why, so she didn't say anything for a long time.

She silently picked up the bracelet on her hand and looked at it. She didn't seem to be angry or happy.

He looked a little doubtful, so he asked her, "What's wrong? "You don't like it?"

"No, I like it." She hesitated, then said, "Are you really going to give it to me?"

"Of course." He shrugged. "Or?"

"But, this bracelet seems to be very valuable, right?"

"Idiot, no matter how valuable something is, it's nothing compared to you." He put his arm around her and chuckled.

"Thank you." She smiled lightly, but made up her mind. If in the future … Give this back to him then.

He still wanted to say something, but she suddenly rang.

She turned to take it, placing the bracelet in his hand.

He looked at her, and his eyes darkened a little, for he noticed that although she said she liked it, she had never worn it.

Did she not like it?

He pondered this in his mind.

She didn't notice his mood at all, because her mind was completely occupied by the caller ID.

That was Xiao Rou's number.

She thought for a moment, then turned to him and said, "I'm going to answer the phone. Why don't you take a seat?"

With that, she walked to the balcony. Not only that, she closed the glass door on the balcony.

He couldn't help but squint his eyes with a complicated expression on his face.

The phone only showed video calls, which was easy to understand. After all, Xiao Rou couldn't speak.

She placed the phone in her hand and leaned on the railing, just in time to face Si Lianye. However, she didn't let him see who she was talking to.

There was a computer on the table in front of him. It looked like it was focused on its work, but only he knew that his eyes were on her.

She was completely unaware as she looked at Xiao Rou in the video with a smile. She was just as cute as she was before, with a face the size of a palm.

Shen Xiran could roughly understand his words to Shangguan Zhe, but he did not say anything in response, and instead asked her: "Oh, it's rare for you to take the initiative to look for me when you're free, how do you feel about being a bride-to-be? Do you feel super happy?"

Sister, don't make fun of me. You're living a good life right now, aren't you?

Xiao Rou gestured to her.

"Yo, your little mouth is quite strong, but no matter what, I can't compare to you. We're already brides, tell me how do you feel right now? Will you be nervous or happy? " she asked with a smile.

Xiao Rou's face flushed red — — Elder sister, don't make fun of me. Marriage is just that, I'm going to have a wedding next week, you have to come when the time comes.

"Of course, don't worry. Even if I was in the sky that day, I would still think of ways to grow a pair of wings to fly over." she said, chopping gold and iron.

— — That's good. Sister, I heard you're very happy right now. You have to do your best. Xiao Rou blinked her eyes.

"Whose gossip are you talking about? I have a lot of troublesome things on me." She was at a loss whether to laugh or cry. In her heart, she roughly knew what Shangguan Zhe had said to her.

I wish I could be as naive as she is.
