"Did you hear that? When you come back, you'll still be assigned to live upstairs, and you'll still be living under someone else's roof. Is that what you want?"
The man walked towards her, his tall and slender figure blocking the view of the two women in the room, his firm gaze locked on her small face: "You and I will be completely cut off in this family, and we won't be like a couple anymore."
His tone was calm, but it gave people a sense of oppression.
Xia Weiyi gave a wry smile, her eyes red.
"Brother, it's not like that. This is just a temporary arrangement. You see, your room is a bit small, and the double bed is not big enough. Mom and I are worried that you won't be comfortable living together. We'll change it when you move back." Si Mumu explained anxiously.
"Weiyi, don't be so sensitive. Auntie made this arrangement for your own good. Our home is not like outsiders. We have many servants, some of whom are veteran servants. If they knew about your relationship with Wu'an and you suddenly stopped being 'brother and sister' and became husband and wife, it would probably cause criticism. How about this, after you have your wedding, I will let you share a room, okay?"
"Yes, Mom is right." Si Mumu agreed: "We are doing this for your own good."
Good for them.
Xia Weiyi's body trembled. She thought of what her brother said before she came here, that she could leave if anything made her unhappy. At this moment, her feet moved slightly. Could she really leave?
She looked up at him.
The man's usually deep and cold face was extremely gentle. His eyes drooped and he stared at her without blinking.
Not impatient, waiting for her to speak.
Xia Weiyi regained some courage. She reached out and ripped off the man's clothes, whispering, "Brother, I want to go back to the apartment."
Si Wuan quickly hummed, stretched out his hand to hold hers, and said softly: "Let's go, let's go home."
The word "home" contains warmth.
Yes, that apartment is her and her brother's home.
She couldn't control the tears rolling down her cheeks.
"Why are you crying?" Si Wuan curved his lips and said, "It was my brother who wronged you."
"No, it has nothing to do with my brother." Xia Weiyi shook his head.
The two people's nonchalant attitude irritated the people around them.
Song Chang frowned in disdain: "Weiyi, let's put it this way. It's my fault for not making arrangements properly. You and Wu'an can live in this bedroom first, and I'll decorate your rooms later. Don't cry over such a small thing. I've never seen you cry so much before."
In the past, when she encountered unfair things, it was not that she didn't cry, but that she didn't dare to cry.
Now, she has a brother, someone who cares about her, someone who loves her, and she also has the right to cry.
"Xia Weiyi, don't be like this. You're not a stingy person. Please stay. Mom and I worry about you and your brother so much that we can't eat or sleep well all day. If you leave, wouldn't that be too selfish?"
Selfish? She was selfish again.
If she was selfish, she would not have persuaded Brother Wu'an to go home.
If she was selfish, she could still return to the Si family after everything that had happened.
Si Wuan reached out and ruffled Xia Weiyi's hair: "You can express your unhappiness, don't be afraid of others disliking it."
Her brother's encouragement undoubtedly gave her great encouragement.
"Si Mumu, if I were selfish, I wouldn't have persuaded my brother to go home after you came to me crying."
"I don't want my brother to lose his family's affection. I want him to reconcile with you as before, even if I suffer a little injustice. But you ignored my friendship and even tried to push me to the room on the second floor. You are selfish and want to monopolize my brother."
Xia Weiyi chuckled: "Since you still hate me so much and don't want me to be with my brother, why bother pretending to be nice?"
"You, Xia Weiyi, shut up." Song Chang shouted out of control.
Xia Weiyi took a deep breath and said, "Since you don't like to listen to me, forget it."
She held Si Wuan's hand tightly and bent the corners of her lips: "Husband, let's go."
Her hands were shaking, and she wasn't sure if her brother would go with her.
The mother and daughter of the Si family fixed their gazes on Si Su Wuan, their bodies trembling violently, with expectation and desire surging in their eyes.
"Okay." Si Wuan gently wrapped her hand and chose to follow him without hesitation.
Si Mumu screamed: "Brother, you can't go with her, do you really not want us?"
"Look at this room. I've put all my heart and soul into it. I've been so good to you, brother. Why can't you see it?"
"Wu'an, please don't hurt our feelings too much. How could you become like this?" Song Shang accused with tears in her eyes.
"If you really love me and really want what's best for me, you should agree that I should be with Weiyi instead of trying to separate us."
Si Wuan said softly, "The only reason I could compromise and return to the Si family is because she was clearly terrified and afraid of the Si family. Compared to hers, your love is weak and purposeful."
Si Mumu and Song Chang were speechless, unable to utter a single word of rebuttal.
Si Wuan lowered his eyes and slowly pursed his lips: "Please stop using family ties to morally blackmail me."
The two of them walked out of the villa hand in hand.
"Stop." Si Han's cold voice sounded behind him.
The cold man leaned on his cane and growled, "Si Wuan, if you dare to take a step out of the Si family, I will no longer recognize you as my son."
Si Wuan's long eyelashes fell, and he said expressionlessly, "Okay."
"Brother, please don't mess with Dad again. Dad is serious. He will really sever the father-son relationship with you." Si Mumu cried and begged: "Do you want to see me lose my father and brother?"
Xia Weiyi squeezed his hand worriedly.
Si Wuan lowered his head in relief: "It's okay."
Facing his father's oppression, he said calmly: "If I make you angry because I do what I like, and you insist on breaking off relations with me, then I accept it.
Do I need to issue a statement? Let everyone know that Si Wu'an and you, Si Han, no longer have any relationship."
"You, Si Wuan, how dare you do this?" Si Han shouted angrily, "I am your father. Everything you have is given by me. If you cut off ties with me, do you think you can still own the Si family?"
"Mr. Si, I will not let go. I want to give the one I love a comfortable life and the ability to protect him from being bullied.
Dad, the assets of Si Corporation in my hands far exceed those in yours. Si Corporation is no longer just yours. Everything I have is earned through hard work, not given by you.
Si Wuan refuted word by word, loud and powerful.
"You! You unfilial son!" Si Han couldn't bear it anymore, his body couldn't stand up, and he fell straight to the ground...
