Her throat was a little dry, and if she wanted to turn around at this moment, it would be too deliberate, so she had no choice but to go downstairs.
Brian Si also walked towards her.
The two faced each other on the last floor of the stairs while Brian Si held his hands on the stairs handle.
“What are you doing?”
Brian Si glanced at the clock on the wall. “It’s already ten o’clock. You should be in bed.”
Florence Li was numb by his gaze. Before she could speak, she was already picked up by Brian Si.
“Hey, what are you doing!”
The servants who were busy around quickly blushed and withdrew their gazes. They quickly lowered their heads and dispersed.
Brian Si lowered his brows and saw the flushed face of the person in his arms. At first, he felt a little uneasy at first. He couldn’t help but tease her, “I’m already married, what else is there to be shy about?”
Florence Li held back the impulse to roll her eyes at him and tightly grabbed his neck.
Even though the two of them had a disagreement, Florence Li slowly looked forward to the child in her stomach. She didn’t seem to have the heart to abort the child.
On the other side, Si Yun sat in the darkness waiting for Austin Zhou to come back.
The phone was injured on the table and no one replied to the messages.
The sound of the key twisting came from the door. Si Yun immediately stood up and ran to the door to greet him in her slippers.
The moment Austin Zhou entered, there was a strong smell of alcohol. Si Yun couldn’t help but frown.
“Why did you drink so much?”
Austin Zhou held the jacket in his hand. He frowned and opened the delicate hand without trace.
No matter how much he drank, he was still awake. Even though he hated himself like this, he couldn’t control himself.
Shi Yun’s hand stiffened in mid-air, and her heart was filled with bitterness.
Austin Zhou sat on the sofa, leaning back against the sofa, his handsome face full of fatigue.
He loosened his tie and closed his eyes.
Si Yun made him a cup of hot tea in the kitchen.
“Thank you.” Austin Zhou’s attitude towards her was mild and warm, which made Si Yun feel very nervous.
However, she still wanted to please Austin Zhou. As long as Austin Zhou was still with her, everything could be tolerated. She also believed that Austin Zhou could melt him even if it was an iceberg.
After Austin Zhou finished drinking the tea, his mind became more clear-headed. Si Yun also felt his coldness towards her, and his mind flashed past the scene of him and Florence Li together.
When had he ever given him such a warm smile and gentleness?
“Austin Zhou,” Si Yun said bitterly, “Can we have a good talk?”
Austin Zhou had already stood up. “I’m a little tired today. You have a good rest first.”
Austin Zhou had already walked forward, completely ignoring Si Yun’s bitter expression.
Si Yun suddenly grabbed his hand. “Why?” Because of Florence Li? He’s already married to my brother. Austin Zhou, you’ve done enough for her. Can you wake up a little?
Austin Zhou didn’t say anything, nor did he open her hand. He just quietly let her vent her emotions.
Si Yun’s words were like a ball of cotton. Without any response, she was hurt even more.
A feeling of grievance suddenly rose in her heart. She felt very bitter and tears fell from her eyes.
Her voice gradually weakened and she felt weak. “Austin Zhou, can you not treat me like this?”
No one knew what he had to endure. Apart from being responsible for Si Yun, he really couldn’t control his heart.
If he could, he would like to forget Florence Li and give all his love to Si Yun, but he couldn’t do it.
He slowly turned to her, but his eyes were calm. “Go to bed early.”
Her hand was pushed open by his Buddha. In the end, she powerlessly lowered it and could only watch as he disappeared from his eyes.
Si Yun suddenly laughed, but her face was covered in tears. The world in her eyes was blurred.
The hands hanging by his side clenched into fists, and all the hatred was on the woman in his mind.
Without Florence Li, everything would be different.
Obviously, Si Yun and Antonia were already on the line to deal with Florence Li.
Brian Si attached great importance to Florence Li’s pregnancy. Luo’s project company had been taken down, so he took a lot of time to accompany Florence Li.
This was a different kind of pressure for her.
However, she gradually got used to the way she got along with Brian Si. In any case, he didn’t go to the office anymore, so Rodney came more often.
While she and Nelson, were sunbathing on the lawn in the back garden, they heard the person behind them call her Miss Si.
Needless to say, she knew who was back.
“Sister-in-law.” Si Yun stood in front of her with her bag in hand and a gift box in her hand.
She rubbed the head of Sis Yi. “This is a gift that my aunt bought for you. Open it and take a look.”
Florence Li was a little startled. Why did Si Yun suddenly come to show goodwill again?
Florence Li had experienced Shi Yun’s change, so she was on high alert. There were some things she could turn a blind eye to, but there were things she had to face.
Shi Yi blinked her beautiful eyes and smiled. “Thank you, aunt.”
“Alright, let’s go play. I’ll talk to Mommy about something.”
The two of them were sitting on a chair on the lawn while Florence Li looked at Si Yun. “What is it?”
“You’re pregnant?”
Florence Li paused. “What?”
“Who told you about this?”
“I guessed that my brother has always been a person who cares about the company’s interests. He has been outside all year round, so why would he suddenly stay at home? I’ve guessed it, but from your expression, I’m right.”
He didn’t want to continue discussing this matter with her.
“What do you want to say?”
“Jing Zhi.” Her voice suddenly fell, and her eyes darkened. “Actually, I know that you don’t like me. Many of the things I did made you feel uncomfortable. I’d like to ask you to forgive me.”
The sunlight in front of her was a little dazzling. She narrowed her eyes and her heart was unstable. She couldn’t figure out what Si Yun was thinking.
“There’s nothing to understand. Everyone’s positions are just different.”
Her words were very casual, and the passionate desire to reconcile with Si Yun slowly faded away with her understanding of her.
