Su Niannian was terrified when she saw Si Lijue beating someone, and she didn't dare to go with him anymore.
She shrank her neck, shaking her head desperately with a look of fear on her face: "No, I don't want to go with you."
If I were with you, you definitely wouldn't let me off easily.
You will skin me alive, pull out my tendons, drink my blood, and torture me to death by a thousand cuts.
Waaaaah... I'm still young, I don't want to die!
I want to watch my son grow up, get married, and have children. As she spoke, tears began to well up in her eyes.
Si Lijue felt very uncomfortable seeing Su Niannian's fear of him.
When did he ever say he wanted her dead?
What's going on in this woman's head all day?
He strode over to her, ignoring Su Niannian's wishes and objections, and without saying a word, hoisted her onto his shoulder, threatening, "Su Niannian, from today onwards, if you dare to run away again, I will break your legs when I catch you."
Su Niannian's heart tightened, and she cried and begged in a very pathetic manner, "Si Lijue, you can't do this to me, please put me down, I don't want to go with you!"
Mr. Si, I was wrong about what happened five years ago. I apologize to you. I'm sorry, please forgive me!
I promise I'll never do it again. I promise I won't sleep with you or force myself on you. I swear, I'll never do it again!
"If I break my promise, may I be struck by lightning and die a horrible death!" he said, raising his right hand in a gesture of swearing an oath to show his determination.
When Si Lijue heard her promise, he felt a sense of loss for some reason.
He didn't want her to swear at all; he just wanted her to explain herself properly, sit down, and talk calmly—that was all.
Unexpectedly, the woman cried and swore, making it seem as if he had forced her.
He grew angrier the more he thought about it, ignoring the cries and pleas of the person on his shoulder, and walked outside on his own.
All he wants now is to take her home and interrogate her thoroughly about where she and her son have been living all these years, whether they are doing well, and whether they have suffered.
After being pushed out by Su Niannian, Xibao lost her balance and was about to fall.
With quick reflexes, Xi Bao grabbed the nearest chair armrest and managed to stand up.
He stretched out his chubby little hand, patted his frightened little heart, and comforted himself: "Oh my god! I was so scared."
Luckily, the baby was clever enough, otherwise it would have definitely given the earth a close kiss.
The baby's mother is so confused! She doesn't care about the baby's life or death; all she thinks about is running away!
His little mouth chattered on and on, and his big, round eyes never stopped searching for Si Lili's whereabouts, until he saw someone under the table, who was none other than his aunt.
At that moment, his aunt was clasping her hands together and muttering something under her breath.
Driven by curiosity, Xi Bao skipped and hopped over.
Immediately afterwards, he bent down and crawled under the table, making a sound that was neither too loud nor too soft, just enough for everyone in the coffee shop to hear.
"Auntie, what are you doing here? Mom sent me to find you and to help me leave here quietly."
When Si Lili saw a small head suddenly appear in front of her, she was so frightened that she almost lost her mind.
Before she could react, she heard her little nephew's soft, sweet voice again, and hurriedly reached out to cover his mouth, trying to stop him. But it was too late.
Although she reacted quickly, Si Lijue still overheard her.
Si Lijue carried Su Niannian to the coffee shop entrance, and without turning his head, he threw down a sentence: "Si Lili, if you dare to run away with your sister-in-law and nephew again..."
I will definitely cripple you and make sure you never leave your house again.
"Now take Xibao back to the old house. You two stay here and wait for us obediently. Don't go anywhere." After giving these instructions, he swaggered away.
"Brother, brother, brother... let's talk this out! Please don't be angry, I can explain everything." Si Lili hurriedly crawled out from under the table and shouted towards the spot where Si Lijue had disappeared through the doorway.
Unfortunately, Si Lijue didn't turn around at all, nor did he give her a chance to explain.
Disappointed, she looked away, pondering how to appease her brother and avoid punishment.
Xi Bao tried to crawl out from under the table, but Si Lili blocked his way. So she complained, "Auntie, Xi Bao is still under the table! Pull the baby out quickly."
"Ah! Auntie forgot about Xibao, I'm sorry, Auntie will come and get you." Si Lili immediately understood and reached out to pull Xibao out from under the table.
Then, they asked with concern, "How are you? Are you hurt?"
She brushed non-existent dust off Xibao's body while carefully examining him to make sure he was alright.
"I'm fine, Auntie, don't worry." Xi Bao gave Si Lili a sweet smile, and thinking of her mother being carried away by her father, she was a little worried that Su Niannian would be hurt.
He looked up at Si Lili and asked softly, "Auntie, Daddy won't hit Mommy, will he? Shall we go help Mommy?"
Si Lili wasn't sure how her brother would treat Su Niannian if he went crazy.
To avoid worrying Xibao, she carefully replied, "Your dad is a gentleman, he probably wouldn't hit your mom."
Then, glancing at the row of bodyguards standing outside, he continued, "We probably can't go anywhere now. We can only obediently go back to the old house and wait for your father to come and question us."
"Why?" Xi Bao didn't understand.
"Because your father sent people to take us home." Si Lili looked helplessly at the door.
Xi Bao followed Si Lili's gaze and saw bodyguards in black uniforms walking into the coffee shop. She seemed to understand what her aunt meant.
The two looked at each other helplessly, each making a powerless expression.
Just then, the burly man who had been on a blind date got up from the ground. Seeing that the assailant, Si Lijue, had left, and still furious about being beaten, he could only vent his anger on Si Lili and Xibao, wanting to take revenge on them.
Filled with rage, he walked towards the aunt and niece, cursing, "Since you know him, then you can pay off his debts!"
"What do you want to do? I'm telling you, don't do anything reckless!" Si Lili hurriedly pulled Xi Bao behind her to protect him.
Her eyes were fixed on the burly man, as if afraid he would hit her.
"What do I want to do? I'll treat you the way your brother treated me." The burly man said, raising his hand as if to hit someone.
Summoning her courage, Si Lili shouted at the man in front of her, "What kind of man hits women and children? Let me tell you, if you dare to touch us, my brother will not let you off easily. He will throw you into the sea to feed the fish."
The burly man was completely unfazed by Si Lili's threats and laughed loudly, "Hahaha~ I'm not exactly a gentleman, so your words are useless."
"Blame your brother for going too far! Prepare to die!" With that, he swung his fist and started punching Si Lili across the face.
