The first day of returning to the Si Family passed just like that, without anything happening. It was surprisingly calm.

Li Jingzhi returned to her room upstairs to rest.

How long had it been since she calmed down? She thought that she would be able to have a good rest, but just like yesterday, she tossed and turned on her round bed, unable to fall asleep.

She slept and opened her eyes to look at her phone, feeling that Zhou Jin would send her a message.

"…"

However, there was something odd about Li Jingzhi's heart that she couldn't describe. She had a nagging feeling that this was the prelude to a storm, and she hoped that Zhou Jin could give her a reply.

She opened her eyes and looked at the ceiling. Suddenly, she saw the dark pupils of the young black man on the ceiling tighten. Her bright eyes reflected the dark figure that her opponent was holding tightly to.

She had stayed in this room for a long time because of her conflict with the old man when she was young. The black man on the ceiling came in to comfort her, and the two of them had a sudden thought of carrying the ladder to draw it.

"I didn't expect you to still be here."

Li Jingzhi looked at the ceiling, sighed, and said lightly.

The person who had painted with her was still in the house, but everything had changed and would never return.

That night, Li Jingzhi slept soundly, holding on to what had once been a regret.

The next day, she still woke up very early. She washed up in the bathroom and put on a simple dress.

The dress that she seemed to have not worn since the day Li Yi was born. Coming here suddenly, she could only wear the clothes that the person had prepared for her.

Li Jingzhi put on her clothes and stood in front of the mirror, put down her ponytail, fiddled with her hair, and encouraged herself, "You have to do your best every single day, you have to persevere for Li Yi's sake."

Li Jingzhi encouraged herself as she opened the door and walked out of the bedroom towards the kitchen.

Si Luoming had long been sitting on the sofa in the living room, his slender fingers flipping through the tablets.

"President Si, what do you want for breakfast today?"

Li Jingzhi took a deep breath and slowly walked towards him.

"Anything is fine, you should do it primarily for Li Yi, there's no need to ask …" Si Luoming's words were forcefully swallowed back the moment he raised his head.

He saw the woman in front of him. She was wearing a white dress with her long hair hanging down. Her fair skin accentuated her delicate face. Her black eyes sparkled as she looked at him. The corner of her mouth curled up in a natural smile.

Was she smiling at him?

Si Luoming's heart tensed up, his gaze stayed on her body, and at that moment it was as though only the two of them were in the hall.

"President Si?" Li Jingzhi felt his burning gaze and immediately waved him around.

"Cough …"

Si Luoming, who had recovered from his shock, creased his eyebrows slightly. He coughed lightly and spoke with a low voice, "Go and cook some food for this little thing. Come to Su Family with me in a while."

"Yes." Li Jingzhi nodded her head, upon hearing that she was going to go to Su Family, he frowned, and the smile on her face gradually disappeared.

She tried her best to not look so terrible, so at least she could make this person feel like she had returned to the Si Family. This allowed him to let his guard down a little bit.

This way, if Zhou Jin had any news, she and Li Yi would have a convenient time to leave.

However, Si Luoming suddenly telling her to go to Su Family with him made Li Jingzhi very upset.

What Su Qing had done to her on the night they were going to bring Li Yi away was still fresh in her mind. The scar on her leg which had yet to heal was still there, and now, she was going back to that place. What was she going to do?

Hurt her again?

Li Jingzhi suppressed her own thoughts and prepared breakfast. Nanny Liu then brought out Li Yi's portion.

On the dining table, Li Jingzhi lowered her head to eat her own porridge, picked up the spoon and placed it into her mouth.

"Can I not go today?" Li Jingzhi still could not hold it in, she swallowed the porridge in her mouth and raised her head to look at him as she spoke.

"No."

Si Luoming, who was sitting across the table, coldly spat out two words and lowered his head to continue eating.

Li Jingzhi pursed her lips tightly, secretly cheering herself on. She would endure for Li Yi, endure this tyrannical and cold man.

The dinner table was quiet again, leaving only the sound of the two of them chewing.

Soon, they finished their breakfast, and the two of them took a bus to Su Family.

Along the way, Si Luoming was still looking at the tablet in his hands. His eyebrows were tightly knitted, and his profile was distinct and distinct;

"Don't you know it's rude to stare?"

Suddenly, Si Luoming's deep voice came out from the carriage.

"I just... "It's just that the scenery over there is not bad."

Even if she said those words, Li Jingzhi really wanted to slap herself.

"Arguing."

Si Luoming's face was filled with arrogance, his tone carrying a natural pride.

"…"

Li Jingzhi was in the wrong, it was better to shut her mouth at this time.

On the way to Su Family, she welcomed the sunlight. Li Jingzhi tilted his head and pressed it against the glass, allowing the sunlight to shine upon it.

She did not realise that Si Luoming's gaze was fixated on her body for a long time, a long time.

Under the sunlight, a strand of hair hung from her ear. She had one hand over her face, and her face was clean and beautiful under the sunlight.

Si Luoming put down the tablet in his hand, and looked at her with a pair of deep black eyes.

It felt surprisingly good.

She had not deliberately observed her skin to be so pale, her eyelashes were very long, and her nose was neither very high nor too low, revealing the delicate beauty of a woman.

Si Luoming was stunned, after a long while, he unconsciously extended his hand out, wanting to brush away her hair. He froze in the air the moment Li Jingzhi opened his eyes.

Li Jingzhi tilted her head and looked at the hand that was moving towards her, her face blushing red, she blinked, unsure of what to say.

Si Luoming, who was at the side, felt embarrassed for a few seconds. He took back his extended hand and said in a low voice, "I thought you fell asleep and wanted to remind you that you are almost there."

"Oh, I know."

Li Jingzhi tilted her head to the side and said indifferently.

Even Cao Hui, who was sitting in the front seat noticed the strange atmosphere in the car. He looked at the two people in the back seat and smiled without saying a word.

"President Si, we have arrived." Seeing Su Qing welcoming him at the entrance of the villa, Cao Hui spoke.
