Chapter 3 Chapter 3

Xu Yiyi didn't know how she got out of the car. She only knew that when she got out of the car, she almost fell down because her legs were weak, but the person in the driver's seat leaned over from the car and helped her.

The moment her arm was clenched, Xu Yiyi's heart trembled, and that inexplicable feeling of fear swept through her body again, as if what was holding her arm was not the big hand, but a python waiting for its prey.

She turned back in panic.

The person in the car suddenly let go. She didn't see his expression clearly, and only heard a short laugh that seemed like an illusion.

very light.

Immediately afterwards, there was the man's voice, as clear as a spring.

"Look at the road."

Xu Yiyi: "...Oh."

It's an illusion.

The car exhaust gradually disappeared from sight. Xu Yiyi stood there for two minutes before slowly exhaling and walking to school.

Up to this moment, Si Qingyu's words "there will be no next time" were still in her mind, as well as the man's aggressive look, as if he could eat her to pieces in the next second... This

was probably the first time Seeing him like this, Xu Yiyi felt at a loss.

She didn't know what she was confused about. Maybe it was because she seemed to have never really understood Si Qingyu, maybe she was confused about Si Qingyu's attitude towards her, or maybe she was confused about their current relationship.

There were so many things that she couldn't figure out, and Xu Yiyi simply stopped thinking about them in the end. She always had a "lay it down" mentality when it came to things she couldn't figure out. Why was she wasting her brain cells when she couldn't figure it out? .

Similarly, Xu Yiyi also subconsciously chose to lie down on "Si Qingyu's ambiguous attitude"...

After putting this aside, Xu Yiyi began to warn herself: It is better not to provoke Si Qing in the future. Even if he is a bitch or a bitch, they have already broken up, so she should just be his sister Yiyi.

However, Xu Yiyi was still a little uncomfortable

with calling him "brother".

For his indifference.

Just as my mind was thinking about something else, someone suddenly tapped me on my right shoulder.

Xu Yiyi regained consciousness and looked to the right. As soon as she turned her head, a head popped up behind her left shoulder.

Chen Jin's prank was successful, "What are you thinking!"

Seeing Chen Jin, Xu Yiyi instantly curled her lips.

When Chen Jin saw this, she knew that something must have happened between her and Si Qingyu after hanging up the phone in the morning. She immediately expressed concern, "What's wrong? Did he bully you?"

Xu Yiyi is actually not very good at hiding things. She likes to record and share things. She always maintains a high degree of enthusiasm for the people or things she likes, and these enthusiasms will also be transformed into her desire to share.

But regarding Si Qingyu, Chen Jin was the only insider.

So far, Xu Yiyi could only look for Chen Jin.

What happened in the car just now made her a little panicked and even a little anxious. She urgently needed someone to listen to her vent. If possible, it would be better to help her solve her problems.

But she obviously overestimated her good sister...

After hearing this, Chen Jin changed her nervousness and was shocked: "Damn it! We didn't even kiss each other. Is it you or him who can't do it?!"

Xu Yiyi: "..."

She was speechless: "Is this the point? The point is that something was really wrong with him at that time! It was very... scary."

After squeezing his head, Xu Yiyi could only use "scary". Words to describe it.

Chen Jin didn't understand, "How scary it is. It's not like you two have never kissed before."

Xu Yiyi was stunned for a moment.

Yes, she has done anything more intimate than kissing, so why is she still afraid?

Thinking about it this way, she felt that she was too cowardly at the time and should have fought back when he provoked him.

But as soon as this thought came to his mind, Si Qingyu's aggressive eyes came to mind.

He had always remained calm, even when faced with her passionate pursuit, or their first kiss, or even when they comforted each other, his cold face never showed much emotion. Those light-colored phoenix eyes are always calm, and it seems that no one can make waves.

Therefore, she never thought that one day, his calm eyes would be full of straightforward and aggressive desires...

She had no reason to be stared at so nakedly. of panic.

It feels like being invisible to a stranger, and you can't escape from this person's golden cage.

Yes, Si Qingyu like this made her feel strange and dangerous...

But these thoughts were too shameful. Xu Yiyi did not tell Chen Jin, but racked her brains and used a more euphemistic description, "Anyway... I was I'm a little scared."

Although Chen Jin didn't understand much, he saw that she wasn't joking and hugged her, "It's okay, don't be afraid. It just so happens that you don't have to go home during the week and you don't have to see him. I'll be sure to wait until the weekend. Nothing happened."

Xu Yiyi felt that Chen Jin was right.

No matter what, until she can completely and peacefully coexist with him with peace of mind, she'd better avoid him if she can.

After successfully convincing herself, Xu Yiyi regained her happiness.

.At

this time, on the eighth floor of Huaxin Building, Si Zheng Law Firm.

It's already past the time to clock in for work.

When Si Qingyu swiped his card and came in, the two people at the front desk were startled at first, but soon smiled again, "Good morning, Si Lu."

Si Qingyu nodded.

One of them said: "Si Lu, the client of the Yang family's inheritance lawsuit is here again. He will be in the reception room this time."

As if he thought of the Yang family, Si Qingyu frowned slightly.

As soon as they left, the two employees at the front desk looked at each other and murmured in surprise that a workaholic would be late.

Soon, the conversation between the two of them turned to the client they just mentioned.

This Miss Yang had made several trips to the law firm in the past few days, but unfortunately, Si Qingyu happened to be on a business trip in Los Angeles during that time, and I heard that Miss Yang wanted to express her gratitude to Si Lu in person. However, everyone in the law firm knows that this is just a pretext, and the real purpose is self-evident.

This kind of thing happens often, and everyone is not surprised. Anyway, the final result is obvious.

Here, Si Qingyu returned to the office and put away his things before heading to the reception room. When he was approaching the door, he seemed to remember something and turned back to open the top drawer of his desk. There was a pile of neat documents that looked out of place. There is a palm-sized pink velvet jewelry box.

When Zheng Tingzhou knocked on the door and came in, what he saw was Si Qingyu putting a ring on the ring finger of his left hand.

His hands are beautiful. The golden plain ring is set on the ring finger of his left hand. It is like a golden circle falling on the fine bamboo white jade. The phalanges are clearly defined and the fingers are slender and beautiful.

Zheng Tingzhou was speechless. Si Qingyu had a dull temperament, but once he put on that ring, in his wife's words, it gave him a subtle sense of humanness.

This feeling was quite awkward, and Zheng Tingzhou couldn't get used to it no matter how many times he saw it.

He couldn't help but shiver, "I still have it."

Si Qingyu seemed to have never heard of it.

Zheng Tingzhou didn't mind. He sat down on Si Qingyu's guest chair and said to himself, "Are you keeping it to deal with the rotten peach blossoms, or are you reluctant to throw it away?"

The jewelry box was put back in its place, Si Qingyu said to himself. Qing Yu did not answer his words and only asked: "Very free?"

Zheng Tingzhou shrugged, "No, I just came back from helping you deal with the rotten peach blossoms."

After hearing the meaning of his words, Si Qingyu He took off the ring without bothering and put it back again.

Although it was just a simple action, Zheng Tingzhou showed some caution, which made him feel a headache. "Didn't you say you can sort it out? What's going on now?"

The person sitting at the top seemed calm and relaxed. Playing with the jewelry box in his hand, his brows and eyes were actually already filled with a sense of boredom.

He tried it, and whether he ignored it or threw it away, the end result was the same. He would still keep the ring with him, just like he would still borrow it and move into that home.

This is actually the result he least wants.

Irrational and influenced by emotions.

But no matter how much he resists, he has to admit that no brother would want to completely possess his sister. Even if there is no blood relationship, ethics will still put a layer of moral shackles on people, but this chain is obviously useless.

He only recently discovered that he is a bad person.

The warm sunshine outside shone on Si Qingyu through the transparent floor-to-ceiling windows of the office, but it could not dispel any of the gloom on him.

Si Qingyu closed his eyes and suppressed the self-loathing in his eyes. His tone was mixed with a bit of impatience. He was not annoyed with anyone but just himself. He said calmly: "I can't do it."

Zheng Tingzhou : "...Huh?"

Putting the ring back and raising his eyes again, Si Qingyu returned to his usual cool and calm demeanor. He said, "I tried, but I can't do it."

Zheng Tingzhou said, ". .."

You can't do it if you can't do it, and you still say it so confidently.

"Okay." He didn't know what to say. After all, his ex-girlfriend was about to become a stepsister. The real owner had to go through a process of adapting, right?

However, Zheng Tingzhou was still a little doubtful, "Are you sure the person your mother is in contact with in private is her father?"

A few days ago, Si Qingyu suddenly told him that the person his mother was secretly dating was most likely Xu Yiyi. When he saw his father, he was so shocked that he couldn't speak for a long time. After the shock, all that was left was pity for his good brother.

Hey, brother, this old iron tree has finally bloomed, but it has not yet produced any fruit and is about to be strangled.

Si Qingyu didn't want to talk about this topic.

Zheng Tingzhou said reluctantly: "Is it possible that you misunderstood?"

Si Qingyu glanced at him.

Thinking of his mother's unusual behavior in the past six months, and now she is staying with her father without hesitation...

His chest felt a little heavier, Si Qingyu closed his eyes, and said with a tired tone, "It should be him."

Zheng . Ting Zhou murmured, and then asked, "Does she know?"

Si Qingyu thought for a moment: Judging from her lack of heart, he should just think that their parents were old friends and not think much about it.

He shook his head.

Zheng Tingzhou sighed, "Then you still..." Don't control yourself!

Zheng Tingzhou didn't say the next words, but Si Qingyu understood.

He suddenly chuckled, "At least, not yet."

Zheng Tingzhou: "...?"

Frightened by his hidden madness, Zheng Tingzhou rubbed his arms, "Calm down."

Si Qingyu said again Putting on his glasses, he regained his usual coolness.

"I'm calm," he said.

Zheng Tingzhou: "..."

I believe you!

Yes, yes, knowing that it is useless to talk more, anyway, once Si Qingyu decides something, even ten cows can't get it back, so Zheng Tingzhou started talking about business.

"We have to finalize the final details with Hengsheng Real Estate on Wednesday, you go and I go?"

Si Qingyu checked the itinerary, "I'll go. You can follow me about the project at the Qingtai construction site."

Zheng Tingzhou: "Okay. The ticket is scheduled for Tuesday Is it okay to return in the afternoon or Thursday morning?"

Si Qingyu: "Yeah."

Zheng Tingzhou: "Okay, I'll make arrangements."

Before leaving, Zheng Tingzhou seemed to think of something and turned around and asked him, "I'll do it tonight. Come to my house to eat?"

In order to avoid suspicion, Si Qingyu mostly ate at his house for most of the month.

He thought there was nothing wrong with Si Qingyu and had already planned to send a WeChat message to his wife. Unexpectedly, the person over there was uncharacteristically saying, "No need. Go home and eat."

Zheng Tingzhou clicked his tongue: "Just take it easy. Don't worry. It won't be over until then."

When the air became quiet again, Si Qingyu rubbed his aching forehead due to not sleeping well, leaned back on the chair and closed his eyes for a while before starting to deal with today's work.

.Not

only was the law firm busy on Monday, Xu Yiyi’s classes were also fully scheduled.

Hangover all night, Xu Yiyi was either wary of being asked questions by the professor, or she was having a tryst with Zhou Gong in her dream. She could no longer remember who Si Qingyu was. After the last class in the afternoon, she only had four thoughts in her mind. The big characters - went home and collapsed.

Xu Yiyi had a house near the school, which was rented by Lao Xu for her. As soon as the school arrived, the power and water were cut off, which was very inconvenient, so Xu Yiyi moved out.

She originally wanted Chen Jin to live with her, but compared to living alone, Chen Jin is obviously a social creature.

The two separated on campus. Xu Yiyi was too lazy to walk and planned to go out to clean a bicycle. Unexpectedly, she heard someone calling her before she left the school.

"Yiyi!"

Under the old locust tree at the school gate, Chu Zhiwei, riding a mountain bike, wearing a white jersey and a big black sports bag slung over his shoulder, was waving to her frantically.

Xu Yiyi weakly raised her hand to respond to him.

Chu Zhiwei over there saw this and immediately rode over. When he was approaching her, he drifted on the ground like a show off and stopped steadily beside her.

Xu Yiyi was hit by the hot sweat coming towards him and hid behind.

Chu Zhiwei scratched the back of his head, smiled and showed his white teeth, "I just finished training." He asked again: "Still have a headache?"

Xu Yiyi hummed, not energetic, "I drank a little too much last night, I feel uncomfortable."

Chu Zhiwei said Knowing this would happen, she patted a large bag of fresh fruits and vegetables hanging on the handlebar and said, "Let's go and cook for you. Where is Chen Jin? Ask her to come with us."

Xu Yiyi shook her head, "She went back to sleep. "

Chu Zhiwei said oh, then stretched out his hand, hooked Xu Yiyi's shoulder, and smiled brightly, "That's good, let's eat alone."

Xu Yiyi didn't be polite to him and got into the back seat.

The back seat has been modified many times, and now it is finally less uncomfortable to sit on.

The two of them went back all the way, Chu Zhiwei riding very steadily.

On the way, Chu Zhiwei gave Xu Yiyi the name of the dish and asked her what she wanted to eat later. He was bound to show off her skills.

Xu Yiyi was not very energetic at first, but hearing him chirping in front of her made her come alive.

The two chatty people chatted about everything from what to eat at night to the latest gossip about domestic entertainment, and about the club recruitment in the new semester. After

entering the community, they walked straight and turned right. When they were approaching the door of the unit, Chu Zhiwei suddenly asked: "By the way, What's going on with the mother and son who stayed at your house?"

The turn was too fast. Xu Yiyi, who was still there, was stunned for a moment when the president gave her the task of recruiting new students for the new semester, and then replied: "It's nothing, Qin. My aunt is my father's old friend. There is something wrong with her house. She is currently staying at my house and will move out when the house is settled."

Chu Zhiwei: "I heard that her son is also staying at your house. ?"

Xu Yiyi: "...Hmm." Chu Zhiwei

: "How is he honest? He didn't bully you,

right ?"

He immediately stopped and said, "He bullied you?!"

Thinking of being threatened that morning, Xu Yiyi thought to herself: You two can guess quite accurately.

But he still looked like a normal person, frowning, "No, how did you see that I was bullied? Besides, am I such an easy person to bully?"

Chu Zhiwei stared at her for a few seconds, and seemed to confirm that she was not like Only when he lied did he smile, "It would be better if I didn't."

At the end, he said with a straight face, "If he bullies you, just tell me and I will deal with him for you!"

Xu Yiyi saw him gearing up, unconsciously thinking in her head Let's make a comparison: Well, Chu Zhiwei is full of muscles, and he is an athlete who can't do his best. Si Qingyu seemed thin, but the texture was clear under his shirt. He could even lift her up with one hand effortlessly. If it were a head-to-head confrontation, she felt that Chu Zhiwei might not have a chance of winning, but if she was included -

she didn't care, he threatened her this morning and treated her like a dog, if there was a fight, she would definitely go up and kick him in the feet to get revenge!

Thinking of this, Xu Yiyi was happy again.

She clenched her fists like Chu Zhiwei, "One day, I will be with you!"

She must also let Si Qingyu, the flower of the high mountains, experience the feeling of crying!

As a result, as soon as she finished speaking, she turned around and saw the person she was beating up in her mind...

Xu Yiyi: "..."

The white Land Rover parked in front of Unit 3, with a familiar figure leaning against the door. people.

The afterglow of the setting sun in the distance has completely drawn down the curtain. As night falls, the street lights in the community flicker slightly, and then light up instantly.

Si Qingyu stood under the street light, not knowing when he came or how long he stared at the direction she came from.

With the light behind him, his expression could not be seen clearly, except for the half-burned cigarette held between the fingertips of his right hand -

a flickering scarlet light, dazzling and conspicuous in the night.

I haven't smoked for a long time, and today's cigarette seems to be particularly astringent.

Not far away, the two people who were originally fighting fell silent instantly.

Xu Yiyi was still punching someone in her heart, but she didn't expect to turn around and meet the real owner. She forced a guilty smile and said, "Brother Qingyu, why are you here?"
