Chapter 56 Chapter 56 I have my own rhythm
After being exposed by her, Ji Siyun had tears in his eyes and his rosy lips were tightly pursed, still looking pitiful.
"Young lady, you still don't believe me?" He shed a few more burning tears, soaking his long eyelashes until they stuck together. Ji Siyun lowered his head, his voice tinged with tears, "In the eyes of the young lady, I am indeed a despicable villain."
Song Youning watched his performance, the corners of her mouth twitching slightly - she was really afraid of him!
Last night, he started to cry like that when he was angry with her, but when he found out that she softened her heart and was trying to coax him, he immediately took advantage of the situation and started to bring up the matter of her giving someone her contact information.
Ji Siyun was already outstanding in appearance, with delicate and beautiful features. He stared at her with tears in his red eyes, sobbing and speaking self-pitying words.
"I know I'm not worthy of the young lady. Those gentlemen seem to have good family backgrounds and upbringing. Although it's a bit frivolous to express affection for someone you've only met once, they don't seem like people worth entrusting..."
He spoke ill of the other party calmly: "Don't blame them, the young lady is too charming, anyone who sees her will like her."
"I'm too bad. I'm not worthy of standing by the young lady's side, even though..." He shed a few more pitiful tears, "even though I'm already the young lady's man."
The young man's pupils were dark, but his eye sockets were crimson, and his voice was somewhat sad.
"Someone like me is only fit to be a secret lover. How can I dare to hope to stand by the young lady's side openly like them and express my love for you to her?"
He held her fingertips with his cold hands and said in a hoarse voice, "If the young lady likes someone, I..." Big tears overflowed from his eyes. He seemed to have lost even his self-respect. His expression was extremely painful, but he said, "I am willing to be your mistress, as long as the young lady can come to see me occasionally..."
These words sounded like those spoken by a sincere person who was willing to humble himself and do whatever it took for true love. Even though Song Youning knew that what he said was false, there was still reluctance in his eyes.
She knew very well why he behaved like this. Seeing the young man sobbing, Song Youning was silent for a while, but still took out her cell phone and handed it to him.
"Take it."
She said awkwardly, "If you want to delete it, just delete it."
Ji Siyun didn't answer her phone immediately, but said with tears in his eyes: "I don't mean to force Miss to delete them..."
"Okay, okay." Song Youning stuffed the phone into his hand. "It has nothing to do with you. I wanted to delete it myself, okay?"
She turned her eyes away and muttered, "Anyway, I haven't actually spoken to them since then."
Ji Siyun finally achieved his goal. His tears had not yet stopped. As soon as she finished speaking, he had already unlocked her phone, quickly flipped through the contact information of those people, and quickly blocked and deleted them.
The movements were so fast that it seemed as if he had practiced them countless times in his mind.
She couldn't even tolerate the guy who just said a few words to her. Could Ji Siyun really be willing to do what he said?
Song Youning knew he was pretending.
Pulling away from the memories of last night, Song Youning really didn't want to be drowned in tears again. She squeezed his face with a little force and said through gritted teeth, "Ji Siyun, that's enough."
"I don't blame you for what happened today. I deleted them all last night as you wished. What else do you want to do now?"
Ji Siyun's face was deformed by her pinching, and the corners of his mouth twitched as he spoke: "The eldest lady asked me to delete it, I didn't..."
Song Youning retorted, "Yes, yes, it was me who wanted to delete it. You didn't cry and make a fuss and ask me to delete it."
The young man lowered his eyes and said aggrievedly, "I didn't make a scene. How could I have the right to make a scene in front of the young lady?"
His voice was miserable, like a lovestruck teenager who chose to forgive someone after being deceived. "It's not a confirmed relationship, so why should I lose my temper?"
“…”
He said it nicely, but what he meant was actually that he wanted to ask her for a formal relationship with him.
Song Youning was silent for a while, then pinched his face even harder as if to vent his anger, making his cold and pale face turn red.
"You didn't make a fuss? It wasn't you who lost your temper last night? It wasn't you who cried until midnight? It wasn't you who made me sleep poorly and have such big dark circles under my eyes?"
His cheeks hurt from being pulled by her, but his eyes, filled with moisture, were tinged with a smile as he said vaguely, "I wasn't angry with the young lady. I was just... just a little sad."
"Stop!" Song Youning let go of him, "Don't mention last night anymore."
She swore that if Ji Siyun cried again, she would stay away from him. She never thought that a man could be so delicate when crying. He was so clingy and wanted to be hugged and kissed, and he cried and tried to force her to agree to various humiliating conditions.
Although she rejected most of them righteously, she still succumbed to his advice and agreed to delete the contact information of those men.
It was obvious that Ji Siyun knew that she would never agree to many of what he said, so this was his only purpose from the beginning.
Song Youning pulled the tip of his ear and said, "Cry, cry, cry, you just cry. You're going to tear our family apart because of you crying."
Ji Siyun's wet eyes flashed with confusion, and his expression looked a little dull: "Didn't the young lady say that she likes me crying?"
Song Youning's eyes widened: "That won't allow you to cry every day!"
"What's more," she leaned closer, "I said I like you crying in bed."
Ji Siyun held her fingertips again, his moist black eyes filled with shyness, his eyelashes trembling, and his cheeks reddened by her pinching, making him look a little shy.
"Now then..."
Song Youning quickly shook off his hand.
"What are you thinking in broad daylight?"
Song Youning has been at the beach for so long, but he has never tried sea fishing. He excitedly made an appointment to go there in the afternoon.
Ji Siyun seemed to have no interest in this. From the time he left the house to the time he waited at the meeting point to board the boat, he didn't say much.
However, he was a quiet person outside, so Song Youning didn't find it strange. She was now fully focused on the upcoming sea fishing and had already begun to imagine the feeling of feeling the sea breeze, watching the waves and waiting for the fish to bite.
Maybe I can even bring some seafood back and ask Ji Siyun to make seafood porridge.
Song Youning imagined himself returning with a full load, and became even more excited.
Besides her and Ji Siyun, there were a few other people who came to sea fishing today. Song Youning was thinking about how to catch fish later and didn't notice that someone was watching her.
Ji Siyun, who used to have a keen radar for love rivals, didn't know what was going on. He sat there in a daze with an expressionless face until the other party walked in front of them. Then he finally reacted and slowly raised his head.
"Hello." The other party greeted Song Youning politely, "Are you here for sea fishing as well?"
This is the meeting point. He asked this question unnecessarily, obviously with other intentions.
Song Youning nodded: "Yes, you too?"
"Well, I came here with my friend." The man pointed to a man and woman sitting on the other side. "I just asked the staff, and they said someone canceled their trip at the last minute. We'll be able to board the boat soon."
He looked at Ji Siyun who was sitting next to Song Youning and said with a smile: "Alas, I was looking forward to having someone to keep me company as a single dog. It seems that among the five people on the boat, I should be the brightest light bulb."
Song Youning and Ji Siyun both understood the subtext of his words, but their focus was different.
Ji Siyun knew that the other party was just chatting him up in this way, but the tentativeness in his words made him somewhat happy.
He and Song Youning, do they look like a couple?
The key point Song Youning heard was that the ship was about to set sail!
Song Youning was happy for a moment after bringing her this good news, and subconsciously explained: "Oh, no, are he and I a couple?"
The man's eyes lit up instantly.
At the same time, the complacent Song Youning suddenly felt a chill coming from the side, and Ji Siyun's dark eyes seemed to be poking her back.
Danger!
She didn't want to go back and coax him tonight, so she quickly added: "I'm pursuing him, but he hasn't agreed yet."
The man was a little surprised, and his suspicious eyes moved back and forth between the two of them. No matter how he looked at it, he didn't think that the young man next to her, whose expression instantly turned from gloomy to bright after hearing her words, would disagree with her pursuit.
Song Youning opened his eyes wide and looked at him, looking very sincere.
The other party was a little embarrassed, laughed twice, and said he had something else to do and didn't bother her any further.
"Host! What a great opportunity! You can piss off Ji Siyun again!" The system asked her angrily, "Why are you so scared?"
Song Youning spat at it in his heart: Aren’t you the one who has to coax people into a relationship until midnight?
"Why are you trying to coax him? Our mission is to make him sad."
Speaking of this, Song Youning felt a little guilty: It was because he cried so pitifully.
The system lamented in her head: "Host, we really don't have much time left."
The blaring danger radar has stopped, and Song Youning turned to Ji Siyun.
A blush crept across the pale face of the handsome young man. His eyes, which had been sinister just a moment ago, now revealed a flustered, shy, and expectant expression. He bit his equally pale lips and whispered, "Is what the young lady said true?"
Song Youning rolled his eyes and moved closer. The sweet scent of jasmine tea filled his mouth and nose along with her breath.
"That's fake." Song Youning pouted, her tone a little arrogant: "Do I need to chase you? I just beckoned you and you came."
Ji Siyun laughed softly, with a gleam in his dark eyes, and moved closer to her, almost face to face, their breaths entwined.
He replied, "The young lady is right."
"Missy doesn't even have to beckon me, I just smell Missy and come."
The young man had a fresh scent, and when he spoke, his low voice penetrated into her ears, making her feel a little itchy.
Song Youning's cheeks felt a little hot for some reason.
She looked at Ji Siyun, who was smiling in a worthless manner, and said to the system in her head that was shouting, "It's over, it's over, we're finished": Don't worry about it, I have my own rhythm.
