"..." Su Niannian was speechless.
He was perfectly fine just a moment ago, so why does he suddenly act like he's unapproachable?
Did she say something wrong again?
This jerk is as difficult to please as ever!
Si Lijue walked up to her, gently pulled, and the passenger door opened.
Su Niannian stared at the man in front of her in shock, then belatedly asked, "Didn't you unlock it just now?"
"You're weak and useless, yet you blame me?" Si Lijue glanced at her sideways. "Aren't you getting in the car?"
Su Niannian knew she was physically weak, but she wasn't so weak that she couldn't even open the door.
She was 100% certain that it was because the man in front of her hadn't unlocked the car that she couldn't open the door.
She rolled her eyes inwardly, pushed him away slightly, and angrily got into the car.
Si Lijue reached out to help her fasten her seatbelt, but when he saw that she had already pulled it out herself, his hand froze in mid-air, clenching and unclenching repeatedly before angrily slamming the car door shut.
Bang! The loud noise startled Su Niannian, who paused in fastening her seatbelt. When she looked up, she saw someone sitting in the driver's seat with a gloomy face.
Even when Si Lijue is angry, he still drives quite steadily and doesn't drive recklessly.
He started the engine, gripped the steering wheel tightly, stared straight ahead, and focused intently on driving, not even glancing at the person in the passenger seat the entire time.
Having eaten and drunk her fill, Su Niannian sat in the passenger seat, feeling quite energetic. She thought about how Si Lijue had just treated her to a big meal, and feeling obligated to say something, she felt it would be impolite not to say a word.
When she really wanted to chat with him, she found that they had very few things in common and couldn't find anything else to talk about. It seemed that the only thing she could talk to him about was her precious son, Xibao.
However, seeing his extremely gloomy face, I don't know if he'd be willing to talk to me about Xibao's situation.
She hesitated for a moment, but finally couldn't help asking, "Is Xibao behaving well at the old house? Did he eat dinner tonight? Is he settling in well at the old house?"
When Si Lijue heard her ask three questions in quick succession, he snorted coldly: "Hmph! I thought you, as a mother, had long forgotten about your son and wouldn't care about him? Not bad, although belated concern is better than no concern at all."
Su Niannian felt a little guilty and argued, "I was just giving you two some time alone so you could develop a father-son relationship, since you had just started dating Xibao."
Si Lijue turned his head, his dark and deep eyes giving her a cold glance, and said irritably, "Then I should thank you for neglecting our son?"
Seeing his cold gaze, Su Niannian shuddered and dared not look him in the eye. She explained, feeling wronged, "Whether you believe it or not, Xibao has always been my everything. I have never neglected him all these years."
Are you trying to say that you're a reliable and responsible person?
Si Lijue had one hand on the steering wheel and the other on the back of the passenger seat, his voice icy cold.
Su Niannian raised her chin and said matter-of-factly, "I... am a reliable and responsible mother, after all..."
If she were unreliable and irresponsible, Xibao wouldn't have come into this world, nor would she have grown up safely.
......
Si Lijue's gaze became increasingly unfathomable as he stared intently at Su Niannian's arrogant and domineering face. He wanted to refute her, but for a moment he couldn't find a reason to do so.
He admitted that, putting aside what she had just done to anger him, she had indeed handled the Xi Bao issue very well.
However, he just didn't want to acknowledge the woman's goodness to her face. After all, he hadn't forgiven her for the humiliation she had caused him five years ago.
"Mr. Si, can you please concentrate on driving? I know I'm beautiful, but it's dangerous for us to be staring at me like that!"
Su Niannian watched as the man kept staring at her and drove with only one hand, her heart pounding in her chest, truly worried that there would be a traffic accident.
Fortunately, it was late at night and there were very few vehicles on the street.
This woman is really shameless; she hasn't changed her vain and self-important habits at all!
I really don't know where she gets her confidence and courage from?
She always portrays herself as a great beauty, believing that everyone will be captivated by her.
Hmph! What kind of women hasn't he seen? He can't possibly be bewitched by her!
Si Lijue was furious and didn't take Su Niannian's reminder to heart at all. He kept staring at her flustered face and wouldn't look away, mentally ranting about her.
"Beep beep..."
Just then, a large truck came from the opposite direction and suddenly blared a piercing horn.
Both of their expressions changed.
Si Lijue immediately turned the steering wheel, changed lanes to the side, and lightly applied the brakes with his right foot to control the speed.
The two cars narrowly missed each other.
"Waaaaah~" Su Niannian cried out in fright, her body trembling uncontrollably.
"Si Lijue, you don't have to be so extreme in punishing me! One of us has to live. Otherwise, our son will become an orphan, what will he do in the future?"
She was so frightened that she lost five or two of her seven souls and two of her spirits. If she did something like that again, she would be dead.
Thankfully, it was just a false alarm.
Both of them are alive and well, completely intact, without missing a single part!
Si Lijue pulled the car over to the side of the road, suppressing his fierce aura. He glanced at the woman who was crying her eyes out and felt a strange sense of guilt. He reached out and gently hugged her.
"I'm sorry, I was wrong just now. I shouldn't have argued with you and been distracted while driving, and I shouldn't have disobeyed you."
"Waaaaah~ Will you still dare to drive so recklessly in the future?" Su Niannian reached out and hugged his waist, sobbing softly in his arms.
"No, I promise I won't drive when I'm angry, and I won't get angry when I drive!" Si Lijue replied confidently.
He knew that his actions had truly terrified her.
To calm her down, he reached out and gently stroked her back repeatedly.
As Su Niannian's panic subsided, she raised her head, still sobbing, and saw the man in front of her. He looked serious, but was softly comforting her, as if he had become a completely different person. A ripple of emotion stirred in her heart.
The man's appearance perfectly matched her aesthetic preferences.
With prominent brow bones, a high and straight nose, deep-set eyes, a full forehead, and a strong and resolute temperament, he exudes masculinity and looks both charmingly wicked and arrogant.
Xi Bao's eyebrows, nose, and temperament are very similar to Si Li Jue's.
But his mouth looks a lot like hers.
Genes are truly amazing things.
Xi Bao is a combination of her and Si Li Jue.
Every day and night before, she would fall asleep sweetly gazing at Xibao's face, which resembled his.
If it weren't for that drunken night five years ago, I wonder if he would have fallen for me?
Is it possible for the two of them to be together forever?
