Chapter 17: Reliving Old Dreams?



Looking at her fawning expression, Si Lijue thought she was extremely hypocritical. His eyes revealed a hint of disdain and indifference, and he snorted softly.

"You're so eager to get out of sight and avoid seeing me, but alas, I won't grant your wish." With that, she picked up her phone and began typing.

......

Su Niannian was speechless, feeling that there was no way to have a conversation.

Not long after, there was a knock on the door.

Lin Fei walked in carrying a briefcase, his eyes glancing subconsciously at Su Niannian, who was sitting silently opposite Si Lijue.

She was holding a magazine, flipping through it absentmindedly, so fast that Lin Fei felt she wasn't even looking at the contents or the pictures; she was just flipping through it for fun.

Five years ago, Lin Fei met Su Niannian. At that time, she was like a newly blooming lotus, pure and innocent, charming and unassuming, as plain as a light ink painting.

Five years later, she has undergone a magnificent transformation, becoming mature and reserved, with a curvaceous figure, exuding a charming feminine allure, and displaying elegance in every gesture, making her even more beautiful.

Si Lijue stared coldly at Lin Fei, his voice icy as he asked, "Did you bring the contract?"

Lin Fei's expression changed. He looked at Si Lijue, hurriedly opened his briefcase, took out a contract, and respectfully handed it to his boss, carefully replying, "Yes, Mr. Si, this is the contract for your review."

He had just sent Si Lili and Xi Bao back to the old house and hadn't even had a sip of water when he received a call from his domineering boss, telling him to quickly prepare an agreement.

He always obeyed Si Lijue's orders without hesitation. Without saying a word, he hurriedly prepared a document according to Si's requirements and personally delivered it over.

Si Lijue didn't even look at it, and directly ordered: "Show it to Madam and have her sign it."

Mrs?

Mr. Si changed his mind so quickly?

It seems that he values ​​Su Niannian very much and is very satisfied with her.

However, on the other hand, Su Niannian did give birth to such an adorable son for President Si. If President Si wasn't satisfied, he wouldn't have given her the opportunity to have his child.

Lin Fei seemed to understand why President Si was looking at him so coldly. It turned out that it was because he had been staring at Su Niannian for too long, and his domineering CEO was jealous.

Lin Fei, on high alert, dared not disobey Si Lijue's orders. He turned and walked to Su Niannian, head bowed, eyes fixed on his toes, and handed her the contract, saying respectfully, "Madam, this is the contract you requested. Please take a look."

Su Niannian glanced at Si Lijue subconsciously, and when she found that he did not object, she reached out and took the contract. After glancing at it briefly, she felt that there were no major problems, and then picked up a pen and signed her name.

Then, he handed the contract and pen to Lin Fei and said with a smile, "Okay, thank you!"

"Madam, I don't deserve it, this is my duty!" Lin Fei took the contract and pen, not daring to look Su Niannian in the eye, and hurriedly took two steps back to create distance between them.

Seeing Lin Fei avoiding her like the plague, Su Niannian asked suspiciously, "Does Assistant Lin have a problem with me?"

"I wouldn't dare! Madam, I have absolutely no objection to you!" Lin Fei hurriedly denied.

Just kidding, he wouldn't dare to have any complaints about his future boss's wife even if he had a hundred lives.

Su Niannian was puzzled and continued to ask, "Then why are you so reluctant to get close to me?"

It's not that he's rejecting her; it's that his domineering CEO won't allow him to get close to her.

Lin Fei inwardly groaned, but forced a smile and said, "It's not that I dislike you, it's just that I ate onions today and I'm afraid the smell will bother you!"

"I see, it's alright, I don't mind!" Su Niannian replied with a smile.

Lin Fei took two steps back and said awkwardly, "Madam doesn't mind because you are kind-hearted. As your subordinate, I have to be careful."

Su Niannian: "......"

Suddenly I realized that this Assistant Lin is quite clever.

Si Lijue originally intended to punish Lin Fei by making him supervise the construction site for a month, but now that he saw that Lin Fei was willing to damage his own image in order to avoid suspicion with Su Niannian, he was very satisfied with his pragmatism and changed his mind at the last minute.

He said in a cold voice, "Since Assistant Lin has bad breath, he should leave here as soon as possible and not bother Madam."

"Yes!" Lin Fei nodded slightly, turned around, took the contract, and walked out.

He had been by Si Lijue's side for many years and knew Si's personality. Si told him to leave without saying anything else, which meant that Si had forgiven his rashness and let him escape a disaster.

He walked out of the hotel, took a deep breath facing the sky, and secretly congratulated himself on being quick-witted enough, otherwise he really would have been Barbie Q.

Seeing that she had already signed the contract, Su Niannian nervously stood up from the sofa and said to the man in front of her with a forced smile, "Mr. Si, now that I've signed the contract, can I leave?"

Si Lijue stared at her with his deep black eyes for a few seconds, then his cool voice rang out: "No rush to leave, we have plenty of time. Oh! By the way, take a good look around this room, see if it looks familiar?"

Things from five years ago are not so easy to forget; he has plenty of time to play with her.

"Huh? Ah?" Su Niannian looked at Si Lijue with her big, round eyes full of confusion.

A strange unease rose in her heart, and she felt that this seemingly calm man was harboring ill intentions.

When she followed his cryptic gaze and looked into the room, her heart leaped into her throat, her face drained of color, and her lips trembled slightly, as if she had discovered what a terrifying place she was in.

Si Lijue was very satisfied with Su Niannian's reaction. He slowly stood up from the sofa, took a step to her, put one arm around her waist naturally, and pointed to every corner of the room with the other hand.

He smiled slightly, leaned down and whispered in her ear, "This is the room where you slept five years ago. Apart from laying a carpet on the floor, I hardly touched anything else, just thinking of giving you a surprise one day."

So, weren't you pleasantly surprised? Aren't you touched?

Oh! By the way, you should remember this bed most clearly; you were very proactive with me on this bed back then.

You said time has passed, how about we relive the old days?

Su Niannian's temples throbbed involuntarily a few times. She parted her red lips slightly and resolutely refused, "No." Her whole body was filled with resistance.

She didn't dare look around the room before she came in, her mind was entirely focused on how to escape from the man in front of her, and she never imagined that this room was the primary crime scene five years ago.

After he reminded her and she carefully looked around the room, she felt terrible.

For her, there was no surprise, no emotion, only shock and fear!

Si Lijue noticed her unease, reached out and played with a stray strand of hair on her forehead, and continued to tempt her: "Not interested?"
