A financial crisis swept through, forcing Yan Mo to return home for a blind date. What? Over thirty and still unmarried? Is he a complete straight man? A fake marriage to fool grandpa? Is that some...
Since he couldn't be locked up, Yan Mo went downstairs and walked casually to the door and opened it for Si Ze.
"Mo Mo, you're awake. I ordered some Chinese medicine for you. Go take some quickly!" As soon as he walked in, Si Ze reminded her with concern.
Yan Mo looked at the breakfast on the bar, then looked at Si Ze, not knowing what he was thinking.
Si Ze thought she was worried about him, and said shamelessly:
"I've already eaten, don't worry."
Now that he has finally found her, he will protect his body no matter what so that he can take better care of her in the future.
Seeing that she didn't move, Si Ze prepared to push Yan Mo:
"I asked them to cook all your favorite dishes. I guarantee you'll like them."
Before he could make a move, Yan Mo took the initiative to walk to the bar, opened the menu, looked at the dishes inside, was slightly stunned, and then silently started to eat the Chinese meal.
Si Ze walked over to the seat he had sat in last night, resting his hands on his chin as he watched her eat her lunch. A long-lost happiness filled his eyes. How many days had it been? Nearly two hundred days in total. He had never felt so happy before, and the corners of his mouth lifted unconsciously.
Yan Mo frowned slightly. After finishing her last bite of food, she took out a tissue and gently wiped the corner of her mouth:
"Si Ze, it's useless for you to do this. From the moment I came out, I will not go back to Mo City with you."
It was the same answer as last night, and her expression was stern, as if she would not tolerate any negotiation.
"I know."
Si Ze nodded, as if he was not surprised by the answer, but he was not depressed at all, and the smile in his eyes even became more intense.
Yan Mo was confused for a moment as to why he changed so quickly.
But, never mind, she also expressed her thoughts intuitively:
"Then it's useless for you to stay here with me. Zhenghong can't do without you. You'd better go back early!"
Si Ze smiled and shook his head: "Momo, have you forgotten what I said last night?"
After his mention and his reaction, Yan Mo suddenly remembered what he whispered last night. She suddenly opened her eyes wide and looked at Si Ze in disbelief:
"Are you really planning to live with me in this Jiangcheng city? What about Zhenghong and the Si family? And the three little ones..."
"I have handed Zhenghong over to Si Heng. As for the Si family, they are not children anymore. What does it have to do with me?" Si Ze said indifferently.
Yan Mo still couldn't believe that he just gave it to her so casually. She could imagine how helpless the entire Si family, and Si Heng, who had pursued freedom all his life and wanted to be a movie star, felt when they heard the news.
"Can Si Heng do it? And the Si family..." Yan Mo seriously doubted Si Heng's ability. At that time, she heard that his father, Si Jiawei, was unable to control the industry of the great empire of Zhenghong, which led to many crises in Zhenghong during his reign. In desperation, his grandfather let his eldest grandson Si Ze retire from the army early.
I'm afraid Si Heng is not even as good as her father-in-law! At least that's what Yan Mo thinks.
Si Ze didn't comment. He stood up, leaned his elbows on the bar, tapped Yan Mo's nose lightly, and said lightly:
"Momo, you just don't trust others, and that includes me."
Yan Mo was speechless, right? Maybe! But she didn't think there was anything wrong with it.
Si Ze sighed, and without dwelling on this issue, continued to express his own views:
"In this world, we shouldn't take ourselves too seriously. Without ourselves, the world won't turn. Let's just say Si Heng may not be able to lead Zhenghong to further success, but he's more than capable of managing Zhenghong and maintaining the current situation. I believe in him."
His eyes were full of trust in his younger brother. As long as Zhenghong operated normally, there would be no major problems in the Si family.
When Si Ze thought that he could finally unload the burden on his shoulders, he felt relieved for no reason.
It seems like this is not bad, a house, a couple, and a small business, such a life is so comfortable.
But he overestimated his younger brother's character. His belief in Si Heng did not mean that Si Heng believed in himself. When Si Heng, who was thousands of miles away in Mo City, received the news from his brother asking him to take over Zhenghong Group, he immediately asked his agent to arrange for him to study abroad, and he left that night.
When Tang Ping and the others received the news and prepared to find the youngest son to discuss the matter, he was nowhere to be found.
The eldest son refused to come back from Xinjiang City, and the younger son could not be found. In the end, Si Jiawei personally attended the meeting between Zhenghong and his partners.
However, this is all later.
On this side, Yan Mo looked at Si Ze suspiciously, and couldn't help but recall Si Heng in her mind. Could it be that what she saw was just the surface?
Forget it, Si Ze said it was okay, so she didn't have anything to say. Finally, she asked the question that concerned her most:
"What about Si Yin and the others?"
Si Ze was not around, and she was not at all reassured about leaving the three little ones with his parents.
"Don't worry, those three little guys should be here soon."
Before he finished speaking, there was a bustling sound outside the courtyard, and then three little guys that Yan Mo hadn't seen for a long time appeared at the gate of the courtyard.
They came in curiously, touching here and there, jumping and skipping.
"Brother, was it really Dad who asked us to come here?" Si Yin's big eyes were shining with a strange light, and he asked in a baby voice to the little boy behind him who was walking with steady steps and had a wise light in his eyes.
This little boy, in appearance, expression and behavior, seems to be a smaller version of Si Ze.
"Haha, Xiaoyin'er, you can cry now and jump into my arms in no time. Don't worry, I will protect you." The one who spoke was another little boy who was dancing happily. Although he was very young, he tried to act like an adult, wearing a pair of sunglasses and carrying a toy gun on his back. Anyway, he looked very immature.
Si Yin and Si Ruizhi immediately moved away from him, and Si Yin said with disdain:
"Si Ruicong, I don't know why your great-grandfather gave you this name. Are you related to the word "Cong"? You are so stupid." She showed no intention of hiding her disgust at all, and her expression even said, "Don't even mention that we were born from the same mother."
Si Ruicong didn't care about the blow from his sister at all, and even lifted his hair thinking he was very handsome:
"Yin'er, this is my love for you, do you understand?" After saying that, he hugged Si Yin.
This conversation was obviously no longer on the same page, and it made Si Yin's little brain very confused.
She immediately hid behind Si Ruizhi, who had been standing calmly, and shouted in fear: "Brother, he is trying to molest me."
"Stop making trouble." Si Ruizhi said calmly.
Although he is only two years old, he looks like a little adult and is very calm and mature.
