Chapter 33 Dream
Imperial capital, Si family manor.
In the main building of the villa next to the bay, Si Tang was falling asleep.
Everything in the dream seemed to be falling into the clouds, like a dream but not a dream.
"Tangtang..."
Who was calling her in her ear? The voice was low and tender, and the unclear breathing fell into her ear.
The warm water was beaten into a turbulent whirlpool, pulling people's reason into sinking together.
Si Tang felt like he was in the center of a hot spring. He felt a wet and hot touch on his neck, sticky and winding like a snake.
Her waist was entangled and she had no ability to move or resist. Someone was holding her in his arms with such brutal force.
Her long hair, as white as moonlight satin, entangled with hers and fell on her bare shoulders. Water droplets flowed down her eyelashes, blurring her vision. She tried hard to raise her head and open her eyes, trying to see the person in front of her clearly.
The mist outlined and blurred the other person's contours. Only a pair of deep blue narrow eyes, jade-white skin, and bright red lips could be vaguely seen, which were enough to charm people.
The fish's tail splashes waves and water droplets with every violent swing.
The other party was not human.
"call--"
Si Tang sat up in shock from the bed. In the quiet night, her breathing was audible, and her trembling body repeatedly brought her back to the dream she had just had, which was so real that it seemed as if she had been there herself.
This dream had been recurring over and over again for the past three years. Si Tang even suspected she had reached the age of puberty. And the object of her desire was a mermaid? She simply thought it was a figment of her imagination.
But the feeling that the man in the dream left in her was not just physical control and manipulation... The psychological feeling of a chill down her spine, as if she had fallen into a trap set by a wild beast, was also extremely profound and real.
She supported her weak body to get out of bed, walked into the bathroom, took off her sweat-soaked clothes, and subconsciously glanced at herself in the mirror. The girl had fair skin and delicate bones, and her face and figure seemed like a gift from the Creator. Her face was flushed, and there was a charm between her eyebrows that was unfamiliar to her.
I don’t know when it started, but this face has become more and more charming. The skin is almost flawless and so perfect that it doesn’t look like a real person.
Si Tang breathed a sigh of relief and walked to the shower head to take a shower. He subconsciously closed his eyes out of fatigue, his thoughts in a mess, and his hand involuntarily raised to grasp the fish scale necklace hanging in front of his neck.
Since surviving the shipwreck three years ago, she had forgotten all her memories of the three months she was stranded on the deserted island overnight. Her mother's belongings were missing, but a seemingly insignificant fish scale necklace had been discovered.
The doctor told her that the amnesia was caused by something bad happening during those three months, which caused her to avoid remembering the memories due to stress.
But when she was first rescued, she clearly remembered that there was nothing wrong with her. But thinking back on it later, that memory seemed to be forced into a fog.
Si Tang also returned to the island and found the scenery pleasant. Compared with other deserted islands full of dangers, its safety was not scientific or logical.
And the experience of those three months is like a mystery.
Si Tang put on a bathrobe and walked out of the bathroom. Most of her sleepiness had disappeared. She walked to the balcony, which overlooked a corner of the Atlantic Ocean.
When it was late at night and everyone was asleep, Si Tang would always feel uneasy when she gazed at the Atlantic Ocean, as if there was something there that she was trying to escape from, yet something that was also pulling her away.
-
early morning.
Si Tang looked a little tired due to insomnia. When he went downstairs, he heard Chen Yue's sarcastic tone.
"Xiaotang is finally up? I heard from the servants that you have been coming home late every few days recently? Aunt Chen is not criticizing you, but since you said you would announce your engagement in three days, you are about to get married. Originally, outsiders had complaints about what happened to you three years ago because of that incident. You should pay attention to your reputation and image." Chen Yue said as she scooped a bowl of porridge lovingly and dotingly and placed it in front of Si Xiaoye.
Si Tang sat down without saying a word and with an expressionless face, and glanced at the fat boy Si Xiaoye who was only focused on eating.
This is Chen Yue and Si Chenfeng's baby son, who is five years old this year. After having this son, Chen Yue's tail is even more cocky and unbridled every day.
Si Chenfeng, who was sitting at the main table, echoed, "Xiaotang, your Aunt Chen is right. You are about to get engaged. When you marry into your husband's family, you will not only represent the reputation of the Si family."
Since Si Xi changed his surname and entered the family tree three years ago, she had already discerned more intriguing things from this so-called father. She ignored their pretense.
Seeing that she was obedient and silent, Si Chenfeng thought she agreed, and his mood improved a little. He put down the cutlery in his hand and said.
"Today, I have something to announce."
Chen Yue smiled gently. Si Tang put down the cutlery, picked up the snow-white tablecloth and wiped his hands gently, waiting for his next words.
Si Chenfeng looked at Si Tang and said in a tone that brooked no argument, "Tomorrow, your sister will move in."
Si Tang paused his hand movements upon hearing this, then continued wiping slowly, his cold almond-shaped eyes looking at him at this moment. He glanced at Chen Yue standing beside him and saw that the other person had a smug look on his face.
"Since you are going to announce your engagement in three days, you will belong to your husband's family after you get married. You don't live here much. Your room is in the main building, facing the sea, and has the best location. Give your room to her." Si Chenfeng continued, looking like the head of the family who has the final say.
Chen Yue was even more elated. No one knew what had happened to Si Tang a month ago, but she had suddenly told the Yun family that she wanted to get engaged. The Yun family had then taken the initiative to plan a 21st birthday party for her three days later. It was called a birthday party, but in reality it was a "husband selection party," intended to announce the selection of her fiancée.
Chen Yue didn't care why Si Tang suddenly wanted to get married. She only knew that a daughter who was married off was like water spilled. Now that Si Tang was married, she still had an only son. Wouldn't the Si family's worries be under her control?
If she marries well, she will be a useful tool for marriage alliance. If she marries badly, Chen Yue will be more happy to see it happen.
Si Tang stared coldly at Si Chenfeng for a long moment, then caught a glimpse of Chen Yue's triumphant expression and knew exactly what she was thinking. With a soft sneer, he suddenly flung the tablecloth onto the table, ruining Chen Yue's favorite bowl of seafood porridge. The porridge splashed onto the custom-made cheongsam she had carefully worn.
Everything happened without any warning.
"Ah - my clothes!" Chen Yue stood up and exclaimed in shock, almost blurting out to call Si Tang a little bitch and uneducated.
The servant came forward and immediately helped her wipe and tidy up. The sudden action scared Si Xiaoye who was standing beside her, and the little fat boy opened his mouth and started crying loudly.
"Xiaoye, don't be afraid, don't be afraid." Chen Yue coaxed her golden nugget.
"What do you mean?! Apologize to your Aunt Chen!" Si Chenfeng was furious. "Xiaoxi has been in the family tree for three years now. I should have taken her back long ago. If I hadn't cared about your feelings, why would I have kept it to myself for so long? Can't you be more understanding? I know you're concerned about Xiaoxi's background, but it was all my fault back then. I was drunk and walked into the wrong room. Xiaoxi is your sister. That's an indisputable fact. She's innocent!"
All in all, it seemed as if Si Tang was so narrow-minded, and he, as a father, had so much affection for her.
Si Tang stood up slowly, looking him in the eye fearlessly. "First, I don't have a sister. Second, father, it's been so many years, and you may have forgotten that half of the Si family estate belongs to my mother. In her will, this part also belongs to me. If you take that little Bai Lian back, I will kick this mother and son out!"
The Si family manor covers an area of more than 2,000 square meters. It is a luxurious mansion designed and built by Si Tang's mother when she was alive. Si Tang owns half of it.
"How dare you! Unfilial daughter! How dare you speak to your elders?!"
Si Chenfeng couldn't believe it. Since when did this daughter, who had grown up under his nose, become increasingly out of control?
