Seeing that Su Niannian's expression had softened, Si Lijue stopped dwelling on the matter and instead held her tightly, enjoying this moment of peace.
Si Lili was organizing things alone in the warehouse, her mind filled with Si Lijue's advice and her doubts about Tang Shuo.
Her good mood was completely ruined by her older brother, and she lost all interest.
So, about ten minutes after Su Niannian and Si Lijue left, she also walked out of the warehouse dejectedly.
She ordered her bodyguards to put the several boxes she and Su Niannian had packed into the trunk of the car, and then drove off to find Tang Shuo.
No matter what, she was going to give these things to Tang Shuo and ask him why her brother was so suspicious of him.
Si Lili drove to the entrance of Tang Shuo's apartment building. She took out her phone and called Tang Shuo, asking him to come downstairs so she could give him a surprise.
Tang Shuo came downstairs and saw several large boxes at Si Lili's feet. His brows furrowed almost imperceptibly as he slowly walked over.
He approached Si Lili, staring intently at the several unidentifiable boxes at her feet, his heart filled with doubt and curiosity.
Finally, unable to contain his excitement, he asked softly, "What is this? Why is it sealed so tightly?"
Hearing his question, Si Lili's lips curled up slightly, revealing a bright smile. She said mysteriously, "Hehe...that's a secret! I won't tell you easily. You'll have to use your brain to guess." After saying that, she winked at him playfully, eagerly awaiting his answer.
Tang Shuo saw that she was deliberately keeping him in suspense and, not wanting to play guessing games with her, said impatiently, "Since you don't want to tell me, then forget it. I don't necessarily need to know."
After saying that, he reached out and took Si Lili's hand, continuing, "Come on, I'll take you to eat." With that, he lifted his foot to leave.
Si Lili looked at the several large cardboard boxes on the ground, her face full of disappointment.
She didn't expect Tang Shuo to be so indifferent, showing no curiosity whatsoever about the contents of the box.
What people often fear most is encountering someone who is completely oblivious to their feelings when they are full of enthusiasm and passion.
This person was like a bucket of ice-cold water, capable of ruthlessly extinguishing the once blazing fire of passion in an instant, leaving only a chilling pile of ashes and endless disappointment and frustration.
A moment of silence is more powerful than a broken heart!
That's exactly how Si Lili feels right now.
The contents of these cardboard boxes represent all the feelings she had for Tang Shuo during her youth.
She tried her best to express her most passionate emotions, but Tang Shuo treated her coldly and even ignored her completely.
Is this the difference between the two of them, and the reason why her brother is so determined to oppose them being together?
Si Lili was devastated by this realization, feeling as if all her efforts had been in vain.
She pulled her hand away, looked at the man in front of her with a wronged expression, and asked in a mournful tone, "Tang Shuo, are you really not interested in what's in this cardboard box? Don't you want to open it yourself and see what's inside?"
Tang Shuo looked at her suspiciously, shook his head without understanding, and said honestly, "I'm not very interested. If you tell me what's inside, I might be able to listen."
He is a very easygoing person and would never waste a single bit of energy on things that are not worth his time.
In his eyes, life is too short to rack one's brains and pursue trivial matters.
He prefers to invest his time and energy in things that truly move and delight him.
For example, right now, he thinks that taking Si Lili out to eat is much more interesting than guessing what's inside a box at the entrance of the apartment building.
Upon hearing Tang Shuo's words, Si Lili's surging enthusiasm instantly cooled and dissipated.
She parted her lips slightly, her tone tinged with a hint of coquettishness and dissatisfaction, and questioned the man in front of her: "Tang Shuo, Tang Shuo, how could you treat me like this?"
I spent an entire morning preparing this surprise for you!
After saying that, she stared intently at Tang Shuo with her big, watery eyes, as if trying to find some response on his face.
However, Tang Shuo looked at her coldly, unmoved, and said indifferently, "Why should I cooperate with you to guess what's in this box?"
Don't you think that playing such a boring game is just a complete waste of everyone's time?
Upon hearing these words, Si Lili's face turned bright red with anger, and her chest heaved with rage.
She could no longer contain her anger and shouted at the man in front of her, "Tang Shuo, you're such a clueless straight man! You have absolutely no sense of romance!"
Tang Shuo looked at Si Lili, whose face was full of anger, and was filled with doubt and confusion. He was completely bewildered, as if he were shrouded in a fog.
Why did she suddenly get so angry?
He took a deep breath, suppressing his agitation and trying to remain calm.
Then, he asked softly and cautiously, "Lili, what's wrong? Why are you so angry? Can you tell me why? I'm really worried about you."
As he spoke, he kept a close eye on Si Lili's face, which was contorted with anger, with concerned eyes.
If Si Lili had previously doubted her brother's warnings, now she completely understood.
Tang Shuo is a man with a handsome face, but he's incredibly stupid. He's a blockhead and can't think things through at all.
If she wants to continue the relationship with him, she has to accept his chauvinistic and rigid personality and be prepared to be driven crazy by him at any time.
Si Lili felt she wasn't mentally prepared, so she said calmly, "It's nothing, I just got angry because I was out of my mind."
You don't need to worry about me, and don't think about the specific reasons.
"I won't eat with you, you can eat by yourself! I have something to do, I'll be going now!" With that, she turned and walked away without looking back.
She even left the carefully prepared box here, completely ignoring it; she must be furious.
Tang Shuo watched Si Lili's resolute back and reminded her, "Lili, you haven't taken your suitcase yet. I'll load it into the car for you."
"No need, just throw it away!" Si Lili continued walking and drove away.
Tang Shuo watched Si Lili's car leave, and looking at the several sealed large boxes, he suddenly didn't want to throw them in the trash can for some reason.
Without saying a word, he moved the large boxes into his apartment.
