Chapter 55 Chapter 55 Why pretend to be magnanimous
The man was dragged back to the room, and moonlight poured in quietly through the floor-to-ceiling windows like running water, coating the floor with silver.
Song Youning carefully closed the door and turned around to see Ji Siyun standing in the same place where she pulled him in. He didn't move, but every time she took a step closer to him, he took a step to the side.
His face was always turned to the side and he refused to look at her.
Song Youning raised his eyebrows: Oh, you are still in a bad mood.
She continued to move closer to him. Ji Siyun lowered his eyes, tears fell from his eyes, and he kept backing away with his lips tightly pursed, until he was forced into a corner with nowhere to retreat.
Song Youning came closer to him and tilted her head to look at him, saying, "Are you really crying? Let me see."
Her teasing tone made Ji Siyun even angrier. He turned his face away and refused to let her see him, but she would turn to whichever side he turned to and could not escape.
The young man felt extremely aggrieved. He suddenly squatted down, hugged his knees with his hands, curled up in a corner, buried his face in his knees and sobbed softly.
Song Youning stared at Ji Siyun, who was curled up in the corner and refused to communicate with her, feeling a little complicated.
The system said to her with a gloating look: "Host, you've messed up, haven't you?"
Song Youning rubbed his temples weakly, his voice becoming weak: Shut up.
Ji Siyun knew that Song Youning was right in front of him, and he also knew that she had a sharp tongue but a soft heart. If he showed weakness appropriately at this time, she might agree to delete those annoying men.
But she is so smart, will she think that he is scheming and using his tears to force her to do something she doesn't want to do?
Ji Siyun didn't dare. He was afraid that she would think he was jealous, petty, and intolerant, although he was indeed like that. Even though he was so angry that he wanted to kill those people, he still didn't dare to show his dark side in front of her.
It felt like his heart was being cut into pieces by a knife, almost tearing him apart alive.
Her light sigh came from above his head, and a warm and fragrant breeze blew. A gentle force lifted Ji Siyun's face. Song Youning slowly squatted in front of him, holding his face gently but unyieldingly.
Soft fingertips patiently wiped the tears from his face. Song Youning frowned, stared at his red eyes, and slowed down his voice.
"Don't cry, Ji Siyun."
Song Youning was really bad at comforting people. She didn't know what to say, so she just opened her arms and hugged him tightly.
"Okay, I won't talk to them, okay?"
Her tone was gentle but a little perfunctory, as if she was comforting a child throwing a tantrum. As soon as she approached, Ji Siyun, who was already holding back his anger and dared not cry, could no longer bear it.
The young man knelt on his knees and hugged her, as if he wanted to hold her in his arms. Song Youning's neck was wet. The young man holding her cried like a drowned puppy and whimpered in her ear.
"I... didn't mean to prevent the young lady from making new friends..."
"I didn't... didn't mean to cry..."
Every word Ji Siyun said seemed to be soaked in tears. His voice was intermittent, his low and hoarse voice was trembling, and even his shoulders were shaking slightly.
It felt like rain was falling on his neck. Song Youning gently stroked his back and said in a soft voice, "I know, you just feel insecure, right?"
Ji Siyun cried even harder, he sobbed, tears streaming down his cheeks and into her neck.
"I'm scared... Miss... I'm so scared..."
During this time, they kissed and hugged each other, doing things that only lovers can do. He was immersed in happiness and deliberately ignored the fact that she had never promised him anything.
He could have continued to deceive himself, but these past few days, she would also smile at those she had just met, and would look at them tenderly with her beautiful eyes.
Ji Siyun couldn't lie to himself anymore.
Even if you hold stolen items in your hands, you will always worry about being discovered. Song Youning's kindness to him now is just a dream. Ji Siyun is worried, but he can't help but let himself indulge in it.
He was very scared.
I’m afraid that one day when I open my eyes, all of this will disappear.
He was even more afraid that his despicable behavior would be discovered and he would be disgusted by her.
Ji Siyun cried so hard that he almost couldn't breathe, his voice was hoarse, and he hugged her and begged her over and over again.
"I will be obedient... please don't hate me..."
"I've always listened to the eldest lady all my life..."
"Don't hate me..."
Song Youning patted his back and comforted him softly.
"You're the best, how could I hate you?" Her voice was unnaturally gentle. "I don't hate you."
She gently rubbed the black hair that was leaning against her face, her voice soft and clear, with the power to calm people.
"The eldest lady likes little dog Ji the most."
Her voice clearly jumped into his ears. Ji Siyun suddenly raised his head, his moist eyes widened, and his lips trembled slightly.
As if he couldn't believe what he heard, tears were still rolling down his face. Ji Siyun asked in a trembling voice: "Miss, what did you say?"
Song Youning's clear almond-shaped eyes looked at him with a smile, and her slender white fingertips fell on his face with some pity.
"I said, Missy likes Ji Puppy the most."
A kiss with the scent of jasmine tea fell on the corner of his lips, and Song Youning touched his head again.
"I don't hate you, so stop crying, okay?"
More tears welled up in the young man's dark eyes, and he hugged her again stickily, sobbing in her ear.
"Miss, I like you... I like you..."
“No one loves you more than I do…”
His words that sounded like a confession made Song Youning feel a little uncomfortable, but she still let him hug her and cry while saying that he loved her.
The system jumped up and down: "Host, why do you become soft-hearted when Ji Siyun cries?"
Song Youning felt a little heartbroken by Ji Siyun's tears. He closed his eyes and said to the system: Shut up!
…
Song's mother hadn't been able to make a loving breakfast for Song Youning for several days, so she got up early today. When she was upstairs, she heard the silence on the first floor and thought that she was finally earlier than Ji Siyun this time.
As soon as she stepped onto the stairs, Song Youning's room door opened. When she saw the person coming out, the expression on Song's mother's face froze and she slowly retreated upstairs.
When the people upstairs retreated, the young man who had just come out of Song Youning's room turned his head slightly, his deep gaze swept across the corner of the stairs, and then turned back calmly, and gently closed the door as if he had not noticed anything.
Song's father, who was woken up by her mother's alarm clock, saw the door open again and looked at her mother with a puzzled look: "Aren't you going to make breakfast for Ningning?"
Song's mother's expression was not right, and she said, "I saw Ji Siyun downstairs."
"You came so early?" Father Song nodded in understanding. "This child is thoughtful. Why do you look like that?"
Mother Song's face was solemn as she slowly looked at him, her pupils trembling with shock.
"I saw him coming out of Ningning's room."
Ji Siyun cried for most of the night, and Song Youning also comforted him for most of the night. By the next morning, one of them had a pair of swollen eyes from crying, and the other had a pair of huge dark circles under his eyes. It was as suspicious as it could be.
But the atmosphere at the dinner table today was unusually silent. It seemed as if Song's father and mother were blind to their obvious flaws and didn't ask any unnecessary questions.
After breakfast, Song's father and mother were about to go out. Before leaving, Song's father said to Song Youning, "Your mother and I have something to do. You can play with Si Yun today."
He then instructed Ji Siyun: "Take her to whatever she wants to play, and just be careful."
Before leaving, Song's mother wanted to say something to Song Youning but stopped herself. Song's father pulled her arm, and she turned around with a complicated expression and walked out with him.
After watching the two leave, Song Youning poked Ji Siyun's arm and asked, "Why are they acting so strangely today?"
Ji Siyun's voice was still a little hoarse, and he whispered: "I don't know..."
He paused for a moment and said hesitantly, "When I left the room this morning, I seemed to hear some noise upstairs."
That explains their abnormal behavior this morning.
Ji Siyun cried so pitifully last night that she had a hard time coaxing him into silence. Naturally, it was impossible for her to send him back to the hotel in the middle of the night.
Song Youning closed her eyes and covered her forehead - it was most likely that Song's mother saw Ji Siyun coming out of her room.
Her action caused Ji Siyun to misunderstand, and he grabbed the corner of her clothes in a panic: "I didn't mean to let Madam see it!"
"I know." Song Youning patted his hand soothingly.
Ji·Snail Boy·Si Yun was so angry with her that he still got up early the next morning to make breakfast for her. She was not so unreasonable as to blame him for such a thing.
Given how much Song's parents doted on her, they wouldn't say a harsh word to her even if they found out about her affair with Ji Siyun.
Judging from the behavior of Song's parents today - they clearly saw Ji Siyun coming out of her room with their own eyes, but they still pretended nothing happened. This is enough to prove their attitude.
Song's father and mother look down on Ji Siyun.
Even though Ji Siyun has devoted himself to Song Youning and the Song family in recent years, they still look down on him.
Song Youning had a headache again - what should she do to let Ji Siyun take over the Song Group?
Until now, Song's father and mother are still wary of him and are on guard against him. What's more... if nothing unexpected happens, the gloomy and paranoid future male protagonist is actually a yandere and love-brained person.
Not to mention revenge on Song Youning, now if she slapped Ji Siyun, he would only feel good while rubbing her hand with heartache and asking her if it hurt.
Song Youning subconsciously sighed heavily, Ji Siyun's eyelashes trembled, and his expression gradually turned pale.
"Miss, don't you believe me?"
The hand that was pinching the hem of her clothes was so tight that his fingertips turned white. The young man lowered his head, his voice hoarse from crying. "To gain the young lady's pity, I have used many tricks. I know that in the young lady's heart, I am a person of low character and not worthy of trust."
"But I'm sincere to Miss." The color on his face had completely drained away, but his eyes were red. "Miss doesn't want others to know about our relationship. I understand."
His voice was slightly hoarse as he spoke these words, and he was breathing hard in his chest.
"You can treat me as a toy or as a pastime in your spare time."
Ji Siyun raised his face and gave Song Youning a miserable smile, but hot tears overflowed from the corners of his eyes.
"As long as Miss doesn't abandon me, I'm willing... I'm willing..."
His eyes were red as he spoke self-deprecating words. His face was so pale as if he had lost his life, and his whole body was in so much pain that it seemed like it was about to break.
Song Youning was just worried about his task, and after being distracted for a while, he started acting again.
With her slender fingertips gently supporting his face, Song Youning wiped away his tears, her tone both angry and amused.
"Ji Siyun, why are you pretending to be so magnanimous?"
The tears on her fingertips were hot, and she couldn't help but stretch out her index finger and tap his forehead hard.
Her clear eyes held a hint of helplessness and a doting she herself hadn't noticed. Song Youning pouted and asked him, "Who was the one crying and trying to delete someone's contact information from my phone last night?"
She pinched the young man's pretty face.
"Now you're pretending to be submissive again, Ji Siyun, you're so scheming."
