Florence Li and Brian Si had discussed it early in the morning that as long as Shi Yi didn’t cry, she would never contact him. The two of them were like actors trying their best to act as husband and wife in front of Si Yi.
Shi Yi had always thought that Brian Si was very busy, so he never thought that the two of them had separated. Luckily, the relationship between Sis Yi and Brian Si was just blood related.
“Mommy, Papa hasn’t been here for a long time!”
Shi Yi looked up from Florence Li’s arms and pouted.
Indeed, he was just a child. How could he know some things between his parents? Even if he asked about Brian Si sometimes, he would be rejected by Florence Li with a busy reason.
“Papa’s company is very busy and has a lot of business time. There’s no way to accompany you, but Mommy will always be with you!”
Florence Li gently touched the little guy in her arms. Her eyes were dizzy and her nose was sore. Florence Li took a deep breath to suppress the discomfort in her heart.
Florence Li, the new apartment that was moved out of, did not tell anyone except Song Yicheng who knew where they lived, but she knew that Song Yicheng would not tell Brian Si.
“Mommy, can you video with Papa tonight? I haven’t seen Papa for a long time. I’ve missed him a little…”
When they returned to the apartment, Sis Yi asked with anticipation while pulling the corner of Florence Li’s apron.
Florence Li turned around and made a hand to pinch Si Yi’s face, smiling slightly.
“Mmm, you have to be obedient. Go and play with toys first. I’ll play with you when Mother is ready!”
Florence Li didn’t answer Si Yi’s question directly. Instead, she advised him to go out and wait for dinner.
She didn’t know how to explain the divorce between her and Brian Si to Si Yi, but she knew that she couldn’t let her know about it.
After Shi Yi left, Florence Li felt her heart ache when she saw Si Yi’s small figure.
At the company.
Brian Si frowned after handling the document in his hand and got up to look at the scenery outside the tall windows.
The screen of the silent phone lit up.
It was Antonia.
Brian Si didn’t take the call and looked at the night view outside the window.
The phone rang for a long time. It seemed like it had been more than one call, but Brian Si didn’t pick up a single one.
“Perfect.”
“CEO SM… Miss Su said that she wanted to see you. Now that she’s outside, can you let her in?”
She knew that Brian Si had said that Antonia was not allowed to enter her office when she came to the office, but she was also forced by Antonia outside.
Brian Si didn’t say anything and looked up at the secretary.
The secretary was shocked by Brian Si’s cold eyes. He quickly lowered his head and his palms were sweating.
“I… I’ll go tell Miss Su that you’re busy!”
Secretary Vine said as he was about to leave the office to persuade Antonia to leave the door.
“Wait a minute, let her in!”
The semi-transparent glass door in the office had just been pushed open when he heard the faint voice of Brian Si behind him.
Brian Si knew that Antonia would not let it go. Instead of making her quarrel in the company, he might as well hear what she wanted to say.
The secretary paused and obviously let out a sigh of relief. He was just thinking about how to tell Antonia about this.
“Alright, CEO Si!”
The secretary turned back with a standard smile and nodded.
After the secretary left, Brian Si took the phone from the corner of the table and opened the screen. As expected, Antonia had been on his phone.
“Luo Ming, you’re always willing to see me. Why didn’t I call you?”
Antonia put her handbag on the sofa, walked over to the table where Brian Si was working and said strangely.
Brian Si continued to move without a word. After a long time, he looked up at Antonia’s cold voice and asked.
“You came to me. Is there anything you need?” I don’t have time to chat with you!
He picked up the coffee from the table and slowly put it into his mouth. He looked at Antonia playfully.
The implication of Brian Si’s words was obvious. Antonia could hear Brian Si’s teasing. The unwillingness in her bones made her swallow the unease in her heart.
“Nothing, it’s just that we haven’t seen each other for a long time…”
Antonia smiled and blushed.
“Since you have nothing to do, don’t come to the company in the future. I think you’re not busy with the Su family?”
Brian Si put down the coffee in his hand and glanced at Antonia. He hinted that Antonia should not mess with him or be responsible for the consequences.
Antonia’s face changed slightly and her smile froze.
In the apartment.
After coaxing sleepy, Florence Li returned to her room.
Her phone was already sweating in her hands. She had been hesitating about how to call Brian Si or whether to call him.
“Mommy, you and Papa must be back for the event, right?”
Before going to bed, Shi Yi was still reminding Florence Li not to forget to call Brian Si and tell him about attending parent-child activities.
The phone screen was crossed open, and Florence Li had already pressed a string of numbers on the screen of the call. She was unfamiliar with the number Florence Li.
“Send a text!” Florence Li said in her heart.
Florence Li repeatedly pressed a line of words on the text message editor page. She carefully deleted it for a long time but didn’t send it out.
Florence Li threw her phone onto the bed in annoyance. She laid on the bed with her head up and looked at the chandelier above her head, her eyes sore.
The moonlight outside the window was hazy. A layer of gauze floor-to-ceiling curtains covered the moonlight, separating the light from the moonlight outside the window.
“Beep beep…”
“Sorry, the user you dialed is busy, please call later…”
Florence Li mustered up the courage to press the number dial and put it in her ear.
When the phone rang, Florence Li took a deep breath. She didn’t know what the first sentence would be if Brian Si picked up.
After a long time, there was a sweet female voice on the phone, indicating that Florence Li had not picked up her call.
Florence Li smiled bitterly, put her phone aside, turned her body back to the bed, turned off all the glowing electrical devices, and didn’t know how long it took to sleep.
The next morning, Shi Yi wore the specially prepared clothes and circled in front of the mirror a few times, making her hair stinky.
“Mommy, don’t forget to attend the event!”
When Sis Yi left after breakfast, he reminded Florence Li about attending parent-child activities again.
After sending Sis Yi back to her apartment, she called Brian Si again, as if no one picked up last night.
As time approached, Brian Si still didn’t pick up the call. Unfortunately, Florence Li had to go to the event with Si Yi herself.
