Si Wuan said calmly: "Weiyi, go back to your room to change clothes and go downstairs for dinner."
"Okay." Xia Weiyi squeezed out a dry voice from his throat. He was as cold as ever, but she was sensitive enough to catch the indifference in his coldness, which made her breath stop.
"Brother, don't think she's so obedient and listens to you so much, she's just pretending."
Si Wuan stopped him: "Mu Mu."
Si Mumu stuck out her tongue and changed the subject: "Brother, my good brother, you won't leave tonight, will you? You must stay, I have a lot to tell you."
"Um."
Their entire conversation was heard by Xia Weiyi.
She stepped heavily on the stairs, each step felt heavy, until she entered the room, took out Si Wuan's towel, and took a deep breath, she felt better.
She opened the wardrobe and picked out a light blue cheongsam, which was also given to her by Si Wuan.
In her previous life, she never wore the clothes he gave her, not because she didn't like them, but because she didn't dare to wear them. She was afraid that Mrs. Si would hate her or that Si Mumu would go crazy.
She changed into a cheongsam and stood in front of the mirror. Her face was cold and clear, like a streak of blue sky on the top of a snowy mountain. She was so beautiful that even she trembled slightly.
Her long hair falls casually to her waist. She wears no makeup except a touch of blush on her lips, giving her a summer rose-like charm.
The coldness and charm are fully reflected in her.
She wished Si Wuan could see her beauty.
Her beauty blooms only for him.
In the restaurant, Si Wuan heard the sound from upstairs, raised his cold face, and paused.
The girl put on the light blue cheongsam that he had personally selected.
He originally bought this cheongsam when he went to inspect his own department store. He suddenly became interested in the cheongsam custom shop on the top floor, walked in, and fell in love with this cheongsam at first sight.
After giving it to her, she never wore it.
He thought that little girls probably liked Western-style skirts and had no interest in Chinese styles.
So from then on, all the dresses he gave her were from France.
Si Mumu also saw Xia Weiyi and screamed in disbelief: "Why are you wearing a cheongsam?"
"I remembered that this cheongsam would be too small if I didn't wear it, so I put it on."
Si Mumu curled her lips. She knew that this cheongsam was a gift from her brother. At that time, her brother also gave her a pink cheongsam made of the same material, but she was too thin to support the cheongsam. So even though she liked it very much, she still put it aside.
"Haha, you just want to please my brother. Don't think I don't understand your little thoughts."
Her voice was so loud that it naturally reached Si Wuan's ears.
The man's expression remained unchanged, with a faint smile on his lips.
Xia Weiyi didn't object when Si Mumu said this, and her little face turned pink, as if confirming Si Mumu's words.
Uncle Si and Aunt Si are going to a banquet together tonight and will not be back until late at night.
On the dining table.
Si Mumu was very happy and kept talking to Si Wuan, "Brother, when mom and dad are not at home, can you come and have dinner with me?"
"Mumu, have you finished your summer homework?"
Si Mumu was stunned: "Brother, if you continue like this, I will ignore you."
She noticed Xia Weiyi pursed his lips and smiled, and the child's temper flared up, saying unhappily, "Xia Weiyi, you're a poor student, what right do you have to laugh? Don't think you're great just because you got into Shendu University. You relied on my family's connections, not your own abilities."
"I'm telling you, Imperial University has a placement test every semester. Don't come in last and bring shame to the Si family."
Xia Weiyi had never been admitted to Capital University in his previous life, and didn't know there was a placement test. When he heard about it, he panicked.
She pursed her lips and subconsciously forgot to retort.
"Mumu, eat well."
After Si Wuan finished speaking, he placed the peeled shrimps in Xia Weiyi's empty bowl.
Xia Weiyi was very depressed just a moment ago.
At this moment, Si Wuan's little warmth filled her like the mist that spread over the mountains.
She enjoyed picking up the shrimps with her chopsticks and devouring them.
Si Mumu was surprised and her eyes widened: "Brother, I want one too."
Si Wuan peeled some shrimp for her and reminded her, "Don't talk while eating. It's bad for your stomach."
Si Mumu muttered, "I know, brother, you are protecting her."
She glared at Xia Weiyi across from her and warned, "Stop pretending to be good in front of my brother."
Xia Weiyi was in a very happy mood at this time and said with a smile: "Si Mumu, eat more and talk less, that's what Brother Wu An said."
Si Mumu was so annoyed by her that she ate a few mouthfuls of rice and stood up angrily: "I have no appetite. I won't eat anymore."
She ran to her room, fully expecting her brother to come and comfort her, but he never showed up.
She lay on the big bed and sobbed softly, feeling aggrieved.
At the dinner table, only Xia Weiyi and Si Wuan were left.
A rare moment of peace and quiet.
Xia Weiyi couldn't help but look at Si Wuan who was dining elegantly. The cuffs of his black shirt were unbuttoned and rolled up, revealing his strong wrists, which looked both elegant and powerful.
A look of surprise flashed across her eyes and she clenched the chopsticks in her hand.
Si Wuan noticed that she was looking at him, looked up, and asked calmly, "Is there something edible on my face?"
Xia Weiyi blushed, shook her head in denial, and changed the subject: "Aren't you going to comfort Si Mumu? She should be crying."
"Let's go after dinner."
"Given Si Mumu's personality, she'll think you've abandoned her. Don't you feel bad at all?"
Si Wuan picked up the fork and rolled up the vegetable salad on the white plate, saying in a playful tone, "Do you want me to go, or do you not want me to go?"
