After Xia An'an returned to the country with Si Lijue, Si Lijue didn't allow her to do anything because of her sprained ankle. Not only that, he even sent two people to take care of her. Xia An'an felt like she was floating in the air. Was she dreaming?
However, she wasn't the only one who felt that it was unrealistic. Even the servants in the villa were indignant.
How could this ugly woman gain the CEO's favor?
Didn't she just know how to cook a few dishes?
Xia An'an was also very ashamed. She felt like a fresh flower stepping on cow dung. Si Lijue was the fresh flower and she was the cow dung.
"An'an, I heard you were injured. Is that true?"
Shen Jianian, who had run over to freeload, saw Xia An'an looking like she had just been reborn from a disaster. His heart ached. "So why did you go out with Ah Jue? Next time I'll take you out to play. I definitely won't let you not get into the car … "
Xia An'an laughed dryly. "Thank you for your kindness, Mr. Shen. But can you stay away from me?"
He gave her a bear hug the moment he arrived. She almost couldn't breathe.
Shen Jianian didn't let go. "No, no! If I let you go, you'll be injured again … "
Xia An'an almost told him that she was already injured. But before she could say anything, a cold figure walked over. Si Lijue grabbed the back of Shen Jianian's collar and threw him to the side.
"F * ck!"
Shen Jianian almost fell to the ground. He cursed and asked, "Ah Jue, can you be gentler to me?"
Si Lijue looked at him coldly and asked, "What do you have that deserves my gentleness?"
Critical hit!
Shen Jianian felt like a knife had flown over and stabbed him in the heart.
Xia An'an saw Shen Jianian's antics and couldn't help but laugh.
Shen Jianian was actually quite good here. He was humorous and didn't put on airs. Xia An'an felt very relaxed when interacting with him.
However, Si Lijue wasn't very happy. He looked at Xia An'an threateningly and said, "Don't laugh because of other men!"
"Ah?"
Xia An 'an was stunned. Si Lijue narrowed his eyes and repeated himself, "Don't let me see you smiling at other men again, especially this Shen guy!"
Xia An 'an: "…"
She suddenly had a bold idea. Could it be that this brat was jealous?
"Did you hear that?!"
Si Lijue said sternly.
Xia An 'an could only appease him first. She smiled sweetly at Si Lijue and said, "Yes, Sir."
Seeing Xia An 'an's smile, Si Lijue's mood improved a lot. But even if the great CEO was in a good mood, he wouldn't show it. Instead, he snorted softly to show his arrogance.
"Hey! Ah Jue, you're too overbearing! An 'an wants to smile at anyone. Why do you care so much? " Shen Jianian put his hands on his hips in protest. Si Lijue quickly turned around, his eyes like a devil's as he said, "What? Do you have a problem with that? "
The strong deterrence made Shen Jianian feel like a small sapling swaying in the wind. His imposing manner was immediately reduced by half. He said weakly, "No, no problem …"
After eating, seeing that Shen Jianian had no intention of leaving, Si Lijue was a little displeased. "Why aren't you leaving?"
"Hey! Are you that unhappy that your brother is staying here for a while longer? "
Shen Jianian said indignantly.
Si Lijue said bluntly, "Yes, I'm very unhappy."
Shen Jianian received another blow. However, he thought of himself as an open-minded person. Even if his best friend was cold-hearted, he couldn't ignore him. He wiped the corner of his mouth and glanced at Si Lijue and Xia An 'an, who was sitting beside him. The corners of his lips curved up slightly and he smiled like a fox.
He said, "Ah Jue, do you plan to continue interacting with An An like this? “
Si Lijue paused and raised his head to look at Shen Jianian in warning.
"What are you trying to say?"
Xia An 'an also stopped what she was doing. She felt that Shen Jianian's purpose this time wasn't just to freeload.
Shen Jianian rested his chin on his hand and said with a smile, "Weren't you called over by the Si family's old man today?"
"Bam!"
Si Lijue suddenly slammed his chopsticks on the table and made a loud noise. Xia An 'an was shocked. She looked at Si Lijue and saw that his face was extremely gloomy. Si Lijue looked coldly at Shen Jianian and warned, "Don't meddle in other people's business!" Shen Jianian continued to smile and said, "Ah Jue, you're not young anymore. In the past, you could still say that your career was more important and that you didn't have an affair. But now that the Royal Duke Financial Group has grown to such a large scale, you can't use your career as an excuse, right? Even my old man often calls me over.
He's always saying that he wants to hold a great-grandson. "
Although Shen Jianian and Si Lijue didn't say it explicitly, Xia An 'an understood from their conversation.
It seemed that Si Lijue was being forced to marry by the Si family.
That was right. Si Lijue was already 27 years old. At his age, many men with successful careers would already have children. But Si Lijue was the only one who didn't have a single woman by his side.
"You used to at least use some popular celebrities as female companions to distract the old man. Look at you now. You don't even cover yourself. Those women can't even get close to you. If you continue like this, won't the old man be worried that you'll fall ill?"
Xia An 'an looked at Si Lijue in surprise.
No wonder she hadn't heard any rumors about Si Lijue recently. So he had already broken up with that female celebrity?
After a while, Si Lijue said slowly, "You don't have to worry about my matters."
Shen Jianian smiled. "Alright, just take it that I'm meddling in other people's business. Brother, since you've already said so much, you should think about it carefully."
As he spoke, he smiled at Xia Anan again.
It was a friendly smile, but it made Xia An 'an feel uneasy.
After dinner, Si Lijue returned to the study.
Shen Jianian didn't leave immediately. Instead, he wandered over to Xia An 'an's room.
He was much more obedient now and didn't touch Xia An 'an. He leaned against the door and said to Xia An' an with a half-smile, "An, what are your plans now?"
"What plans?"
Xia An 'an's eyes darted around.
Shen Jianian smiled. "I've always thought that you're a smart girl. Otherwise, you wouldn't have caught Ah Jue's attention. I heard that when you guys went to Russia Island, you caused quite a commotion. After you came back, Ah Jue cared even more about you."
