Si Lijue rushed to the waterside pavilion.
"Young Master!"
A maid came out wiping her tears. When she saw Si Lijue, it was as if she had seen her savior. She hurried over and said, "Young Master, you're finally here."
Si Lijue's expression was very bad. He asked in a low voice, "How is Xiao Yu?"
"Miss is in the room."
After the maid said this, Si Lijue hurried in.
Inside the house, there was an elegantly dressed woman with an otherworldly temperament leaning against the window. The moonlight shone on her body, giving her a very tranquil feeling.
"Xiao Yu!"
Si Lijue walked over.
The woman turned around. When she saw Si Lijue, she forced a smile and said, "Brother, why are you here?"
Si Lijue looked Si Yu up and down and frowned. "Those people are here to harass you again?"
Si Yu's eyes dimmed. She lowered her eyes and pursed her lips. "They said Big Brother has a business to invest in and asked me to lend them some money. I said I didn't have it, so they said they wanted to look for you. I said no, so they started to cause trouble in the room …"
A cold glint flashed across Si Lijue's eyes. He said coldly, "Do those people really not want to live in C Country anymore?"
When Si Yu heard this, she immediately said, "Brother, don't be angry. No matter how wrong they are, they are still my family."
After saying this, there was a trace of pity in her eyes. Just looking at her made Si Lijue's heart soften. He squatted down and caressed Si Yu's face. "It's enough that you only have me as your family."
Although Si Yu was Si Lijue's sister in name, she was actually adopted by the Si family. Madam Si had always wanted a girl, but after giving birth to the Si family's eldest young master, she lost her ability to conceive because of some people's schemes. She could only go to the hospital to adopt a baby girl, Si Yu.
However, within a year, Madam Si's infertility miraculously recovered and she successfully gave birth to a baby girl called Si Ya.
Now that she had a biological daughter, this adopted one was naturally disliked. Madam Si directly threw Si Yu to the servants to raise. Si Yu had been weak and sickly since she was young. Madam Si was afraid that her illness would spread to her, so she couldn't even be bothered to look at her.
Although Si Yu was the Si family's young miss in name, even some of the favored servants could be arrogant towards her.
Si Yu was ostracized for 16 years, and then Si Lijue came to the Si family.
Both of them were considered people that the Si family didn't like, so they sympathized with each other. In addition, Si Yu was gentle and weak, so Si Lijue took extra care of her and always treated her like his own biological sister.
After Si Lijue successfully took over the Si family, Si Yu's situation in the Si family improved.
However, the good times didn't last long. Si Yu hadn't even had a few days of peace before her so-called biological parents came knocking on her door, hoping that their rich daughter could help their family. Si Yu often gave them money in secret, but they didn't know how to be grateful. Instead, they took advantage of Si Yu even more.
After Si Lijue found out about this, he arranged for Si Yu to stay in this apartment, hoping that she could have some peace. Who knew that those people would still come looking for her.
Si Yu held Si Lijue's hand and smiled, "Brother, I'm satisfied as long as I have you as my family in this world. However, those people are still my family. Even if they abandoned me back then, please don't lower yourself to their level."
"You're always so soft-hearted."
Si Lijue frowned.
Si Yu smiled weakly and said, "I'm only interested in family. Promise me, okay? I won't argue with them. "
"I'll promise you then."
Si Lijue was helpless.
Si Yu smiled knowingly. She rolled her eyes and suddenly asked, "Oh right, brother, I heard that the Si family has been trying to arrange a marriage for you. The other party is the daughter of the Family He in Country A. She's a very capable person. Do you like her?"
Si Lijue said lightly, "I don't like her."
"You don't like her?" Si Yu blinked curiously and asked, "Why not? Isn't she good? I heard that she's a famous socialite in Country A. She's beautiful and multi-talented. Most importantly, her family background is prominent. Her mother is even the princess of J Country! "
"So what? I'm marrying a wife, not someone with power. My wife doesn't need to have a prominent background. She just needs to love me sincerely."
Si Lijue said calmly.
However, Si Yu laughed secretly. The corners of her eyes curved as she said, "Brother, you really don't care about family background?"
"Don't you know what I want?"
Si Lijue glanced at her, then ruffled Si Yu's hair and said, "Rest well. If those people come again, tell them to look for me directly. I'll deal with them."
"That's not good. If they look for you, it'll definitely be about money."
"Money is better than causing trouble for you, right?"
Si Lijue said.
Si Yu's snow-white face flushed red. She suddenly leaned forward and hugged Si Lijue's waist tightly and said, "Brother, let's never be apart in this lifetime, okay?"
Si Lijue laughed involuntarily and said, "How can that be? You have to get married eventually. "
However, Si Yu stubbornly shook her head and said, "No, I'm not getting married. Brother, don't marry me off, okay? I only want to be with you. I don't like other men. "
"You've seen too little."
"Not little. They're not as outstanding as you."
Si Lijue had no choice. He said dotingly, "Then stay with me forever. With me around, no one will dare to look down on you."
Si Yu smiled sweetly and said coquettishly, "Brother, stay with me tonight, okay?"
Si Lijue paused.
He suddenly thought of Xia An 'an.
"Brother?"
Si Yu saw that Si Lijue hesitated and said uneasily, "Are you busy with work? Am I disturbing you? "
"No."
Si Lijue denied.
He didn't want to disappoint Si Yu. Previously, he didn't visit Si Yu because of some matters. In the end, she was bullied by those relatives. This time, the maid probably couldn't take it anymore and called him. No matter what he said, there was no reason for him to leave now.
"I'll stay with you tonight."
Si Lijue said.
Si Yu was overjoyed and hugged Si Lijue even tighter, saying, "Brother, I'm so happy. I haven't seen you in so long."
Si Lijue didn't like the touch of women, but the other party was Si Yu. He could still tolerate it. His gaze was gentle as he said helplessly, "Why are you still like a child?"
"Hehe, it's because I'm by your side. I'm not like this in front of others." Si Yu smiled sweetly. She rubbed her eyes and revealed a sleepy expression, saying, "Brother, I'm a little sleepy. Stay by my side, okay?"
"Okay."
"I knew you're the best."
Si Yu laid on the bed and only revealed two bright eyes. She said obediently, "Brother, you'll stay until I fall asleep, right?"
"I will."
Si Lijue leaned against the bed and quietly watched over her.
Suddenly, his phone rang.
Si Lijue glanced at it. It was Xia An 'an calling.
He suddenly realized that a long time had passed. She was probably worried about him.
Si Lijue was about to answer the call when Si Yu's uncomforting voice came through. She asked in a daze, "Who is it …"
