“Gasp…”
Zhuang Nainai took a deep breath. She’d been struck by lightning for acting like a pretentious prick. As expected, she had committed a deadly sin, which caused her to sprain her leg.
Feeling extremely embarrassed, she wished that she could crawl into a hole on the ground right now.
Zhuang Nainai wanted to see if Si Jingyu and Shi Jinyan, who were walking in front, had seen her. As she raised her head, she realized that while walking up the steps, Shi Jinyan had extended his hand very elegantly and naturally supported Si Jingyu’s waist. However, after walking up the steps, he let go of her very quickly while Si Jingyu smiled gently at him.
Zhuang Nainai stared blankly.
Si Zhengting supported Zhuang Nainai. When he heard her moan and saw her fixed gaze, he asked softly, “You sprained your ankle?”
However, he didn’t receive any response from her.
He looked towards Zhuang Nainai and realized that her gaze was actually fixed right on Shi Jinyan.
At that moment, Si Zhengting’s gaze dimmed.
Zhuang Nainai became even more puzzled. Just as she was about to proceed forward and observe the reaction between Si Jingyu and Shi Jinyan, she felt darkness appear right before her. A big and tall stature had blocked her from the front.
Zhuang Nainai then snapped out of it. She inclined her head towards the side, extended her neck, and even looked towards the front from the side of Si Zhengting’s body while she conveniently probed softly, “Sister and brother-in-law’s relationship seems to be not bad?”
Si Zhengting nodded his head. “They are a very loving couple.”
Zhuang Nainai frowned. “How many years… have they been married?”
Si Zhengting raised his brows while looking displeased. “Two years.”
“Ah?” Once again, Zhuang Nainai was lost in thought. Since they have been married for only two years, could that three- or four-year-old child belong to Brother-in-law’s ex?
Zhuang Nainai stealthily moved closer to Si Zhengting and inquired, “Is this Sister and Brother-in-law’s… first marriage?”
Upon hearing what she said, Si Zhengting became completely speechless!
He snorted and directly walked towards the front.
This fellow, why must his arrogant syndrome relapse at this critical moment?
Zhuang Nainai was totally speechless. Even so, she could only endure the pain in her ankle while following him from behind and walked towards the living room.
Si Jingyu and Shi Jinyan, both of whom appeared to have not seen the two of them outside, were sitting on the sofa.
Dressed in a black suit, Shi Jinyan’s refined and charming appearance made him look reserved and full of pride, just like a successful businessman.
On the other hand, Si Jingyu, who came from a wealthy family, dressed leisurely. Both of them were obviously uncoordinated in terms of their dressing, yet, when they sat down on the sofa like this, they were unexpectedly so well-matched.
This was only to be expected of a talented man and a beautiful woman.
Filled with curiosity, Zhuang Nainai sat opposite them.
Si Jingyu carried herself with ease and confidence. Each of her gesture gave off a generous, artistic vibe. Her delicate and pretty looks, which were somewhat similar to Si Zhengting’s, gave off an indescribable charm.
At least, once Zhuang Nainai’s eyes were fixated on Si Jingyu, she couldn’t shift her gaze away.
Si Zhengting had already sat down beside her. With his cool and relaxed voice, he asked, “This time, you were on a holiday for over a month, right?”
Si Jingyu laughed. “What about it? Are you envious? However, you can’t afford to go overseas, Imperial Group can’t do without you.”
Si Zhengting’s eyes let out a helpless look. Just as he was about to speak, his cell phone rang all of a sudden. He looked down. Upon seeing the caller ID, he raised his brows and immediately answered the call. He switched on the speaker mode and placed his cell phone on the coffee table.
Ding Mengya said in a relaxed manner from the other side of the cell phone, “Darling~ Has my pretty little girl Jingyu reached home?”
Si Zhengting raised his head, glanced at Si Jingyu, and answered indifferently, “Yes.”
