Si Lijue walked to the sofa and sat down opposite Si Lili and Xi Bao.

Then, seeing Su Niannian sitting between Si Lili and Xi Bao, his brows furrowed and his face darkened visibly.

Hearing that his younger sister was deceiving Su Niannian, and that the silly woman believed her unconditionally, he became even angrier.

Others may not know what kind of person Si Lili is, but he is her own brother. He knows what she wants to do from her every move and even her eyes.

Even if Xibao, a toddler not even five years old, inherited all of his good genes, it would be impossible for him to know so much.

It must have been his good sister talking nonsense in front of Xibao, passing on these fallacies and heresies to him.

Si Lijue glared at Si Lili, giving her a warning look.

Then, he beckoned to Xibao, "Xibao, come here and sit next to Daddy."

Although Xibao was a little unwilling, he thought that he was the eldest in the family and that his mother and aunt could not beat his father, so how could he dare to disobey?

She had no choice but to quickly climb down from the sofa and waddle over to Si Lijue's side with her short legs.

Then, tilting his little head back and blinking his big eyes, he asked curiously, "Dad, you weren't home with Xibao last night, did you miss her a lot?"

"Yes!" Si Lijue replied with a smile, "Xi Bao is right, Daddy missed Xi Bao so much that he couldn't sleep last night!"

Si Lili felt extremely wronged after being warned by her brother. Regardless of whether she would offend him, she directly confronted him: "Brother, when did you become so shameless? You don't even blush when you lie."

You couldn't sleep last night, clearly because you were too excited to sleep with the beautiful Niannian by your side.

How can you say you can't sleep because you miss Xibao? Don't think that just because Xibao is young, she can lie without being caught.

Xi Bao was feeling smug when she heard her father say that he missed him so much that he couldn't sleep.

Unexpectedly, she heard Si Lili's words. Blinking her soft and cute big eyes, she took the opportunity to ask, puzzled, "Auntie, do you mean that Dad lied to me? He didn't miss me at all?"

"Yes, you could say that." Si Lili nodded.

Xi Bao's smile froze on her face. She pouted and muttered, "A man's mouth is a liar's mouth. I'd rather believe in ghosts than believe a man's words."

“Yes, my little nephew is right, my darling is very perceptive!” Si Lili gave Xi Bao a thumbs up and chimed in, “If men’s words could be counted, pigs could climb trees.”

Xi Bao is very perceptive; she understands things immediately.

He turned his head to look at the person in front of him with a gloomy face, and like a little adult, he sighed heavily: "Alas! Dad, I almost believed your sweet talk."

So, you were lying on purpose to deceive me, a mere child.

Undeterred, Si Lili chimed in, "Nephew, people say that the more beautiful a woman is, the more likely she is to lie."

Actually, based on my more than 20 years of experience in judging people, the more handsome a man is, the less reliable and more of a scumbag he is!

You can rest assured, your aunt would never lie to you!

Xi Bao felt that her aunt wouldn't wrong her brother for no reason; there must be some evidence.

So she turned her gaze to Su Niannian's face and said earnestly, "Mom, did you hear what Auntie said?"

Never take a man's words lightly, especially my father's; not a single word he says is true.

"Pfft~" Su Niannian couldn't hold back any longer and covered her mouth to laugh out loud.

Seeing her good son and her best friend working together to make Si Lijue's face turn completely black with anger, she felt that they had finally helped her vent her anger over the day before when he had imprisoned her in the hotel.

The resentment in her heart vanished instantly, and she was no longer angry about Xibao and Silili's earlier disregard.

The child didn't turn into an ingrate; she was still her warm-hearted leather jacket and Zhongnanhai bodyguard.

My best friend isn't a fake sister; she's still the same loyal and supportive sister who never leaves me.

She nodded happily and solemnly agreed, "Okay! I'll remember."

"Then I'm relieved!" Xibao patted her little chest. "As long as Mom doesn't get scammed, I can rest easy."

His mother is his precious treasure, the person he cherishes and wants to protect.

He would never let his mother get hurt in the slightest!

When Si Lijue saw that his wife and son had been fooled by his sister again, all the goodwill he had painstakingly built up in front of them was gone in the blink of an eye.

He was genuinely angry that Si Lili was siding with outsiders and deliberately trying to sow discord among the three of them.

Without hesitation, he rolled his eyes at Si Lili and warned her, "Si Lili, if you don't say anything, no one will think you're a silent person."

Si Lili wasn't stupid; of course she knew that Si Lijue was upset because she had said something she shouldn't have, which affected his image as a good man and a good father.

However, she just didn't want her brother to have an easy time and was determined to go against him.

She muttered to herself, "See? I said a few more words and my brother still reacted the same way. In the end, he still dislikes me. It's really heartbreaking."

She even symbolically wiped away her tears to express her grievances and resentment.

Looking at Si Lili's pitiful appearance, Xi Bao couldn't bear it and solemnly assured her, "Auntie, don't worry! As long as Xi Bao is here, Xi Bao will protect you, take care of you, and take care of you in your old age."

"Waaaaah~ Little nephew, I really didn't spoil you for nothing, I love you so much."

Si Lili was moved to tears, wishing she could snatch Xibao from Si Lijue's arms and give Xibao's little face a few more kisses to express her gratitude for Xibao's filial piety.

However, her brother was a real menace, and now that she had provoked him, she dared not make any rash moves.

Moreover, Si Lili's intuition told her that if she really tried to snatch Xi Bao from Si Lijue's arms, she would probably be kicked away by her heartless brother before she could even touch Xi Bao's clothes.

To keep her own life safe, she had to endure it.

She has to hold out until her parents come home!

Si Lijue was about to be driven mad by his younger sister. He shot her another glare, but before he could even open his mouth to scold her, he saw Si Lili reach out and grab Su Niannian's arm, crying loudly.

"Niannian, from now on I will have no brother to love me, no brother to care for me. I only have you and my little nephew."

You can't ignore me, you must rely on me for survival!

I've already lost my loving brother; I can't lose you all too.

Su Niannian reached out and gently stroked Si Lili's back, softly comforting her: "Lili, you don't have a brother, but you still have me and Xibao."

Don't worry, we won't abandon you. We'll stay by your side until you get married and have children.
