Chapter 48 Not a Rose
"However, Jiang Wang, I suddenly want to do something very interesting."
Jiang Wang did not reply to the message.
Instead, he called back directly.
"what you up to?"
Si Yuan said, "I think I'll do what's right now after I finish this."
"Today I realized that people who seem fearless are not without flaws."
"The way she gets scared is no different from how I used to be."
"People shouldn't be able to have a good life just because they've done something wrong."
Jiang Wang suddenly laughed.
"Si Yuan".
"I love how gentle you are, my little bunny."
"But I would prefer you as a rose with thorns."
...
"Not a rose."
Si Yuan looked at the clouds outside and spoke slowly.
"Rose needs careful nurturing and should grow in the sun."
Or rather, she is more like a thorn.
Born in the mud, growing in the dark swamp, amidst a jumble of thick and thin thorns.
Sometimes it appears as harmless vines like weeds, and sometimes as thick branches covered with thorns.
She always treated others with indifference and superficiality.
It makes others think that anyone can step on you.
Even towards Jiang Wang.
But perhaps Jiang Wang has understood by now?
However, Jiang said:
"With me, you only need to be a blooming rose, and I will be your thorns. I am willing to do it."
Si Yuan's gaze froze for a moment.
"You know why I've always been close to you, aren't you angry?"
"I knew what you wanted to do when you said you wanted to kiss me that night."
He sighed over the phone, his tone somewhat helpless: "What can I do? I'm willing to be played by you."
It's not the first time.
This time, however, he wasn't the one who took the initiative.
Temptation, being tempted.
Si Yuan is much smarter than before.
But whatever it looks like, that's what he likes.
"I just hope that what you said about marrying me isn't a lie."
The static on the other end of the phone carried Jiang Wang's voice, like warm water washing over Si Yuan's taut fingertips.
She lowered her eyes and saw her blurry reflection in the windowpane.
She hasn't told the truth in a long time because nobody wants to listen.
But that day, listening to Jiang Wang's voice on the phone, she suddenly decided to take a big gamble.
Something capable of destroying Lin Shuangyu.
Besides losing the love she desired most, seeing herself in a powerful and influential marriage seems to cause her even more pain.
But besides that, does she really like Jiang Wang?
She didn't know.
Jiang Wang chuckled softly on the other end of the line, his laughter tinged with a barely perceptible hoarseness: "It's better to stay silent than to lie to me."
Goodnight, baby.
Jiang Wang thought that if Si Yuan were in front of him, he would definitely ask for a goodnight kiss.
Then soothe the scars on her back.
——
Lin Shuangyu didn't sleep a wink that night.
Today's Si Yuan is very different.
She's completely different from how she used to be.
how so?
Given her personality, why was she completely unmoved when she heard about those past events?
Those past events could no longer break Si Yuan.
Those who commit evil are more likely than anyone else to sense an approaching crisis.
She dialed the phone number for TY's design department.
She spoke gently: "Hello, the previous design doesn't need to be redone. We just need the first version of the plan. Please set up the set according to the plan as soon as possible. My husband wants to hold the engagement ceremony as scheduled."
"The sooner the better."
——
The next day, as soon as Si Yuan entered the company, she heard the designers below complaining.
"What? The second version of the plan is already half finished, and the client wants the first version again."
Si Yuan took the design proposal and flipped through it: "Is it still the first version with an ocean theme?"
"yes."
After Chen Mo left, Si Yuan was promoted to the new team leader by General Manager Sun.
Si Yuan shrugged and said with a smile, "I told you before, there's no need to rush. That's just how rich people are, fickle and unpredictable."
"but……"
“Since our employer misses high school life, we should still do our best to make it perfect. We can design a special seating area to arrange for the bride-to-be’s high school classmates to sit together, which will make it more sentimental.”
The subordinate's eyes lit up; he thought it made perfect sense.
"Sister Siyuan, you're much more professional than that Team Leader Chen from before!"
Si Yuan smiled.
If we don't call all those people back, how can we retaliate by taking them all down at once?
"I wonder how well Chen Mo is recovering."
Si Yuan sat down and said calmly, "Perhaps he will have a new understanding of how many people a van can carry."
——
Lin Shuangyu hugged Song Yan's arm and said with a smile, "I already coordinated with TY last night, so there's no need to redesign it. This will make things much easier for my sister."
A smile appeared in Song Yan's eyes: "Well, that's good."
"I knew you'd be happy as long as I'm good to your sister."
Song Yan lowered his eyes and glanced at her. "Mm."
"Do you think Xiaoyuan will attend as a designer or as a family member?"
Song Yan felt that the question was somewhat inexplicable.
“Of course she’s family, she’s my family.”
Lin Shuangyu nodded.
"But I feel like she doesn't consider us family anymore."
She spoke casually, observing Song Yan's expression.
Song Yan suddenly looked down at her.
He met her gaze.
"She will always be my sister, and that will never change in this lifetime."
Lin Shuangyu was stunned for a moment.
Then force a smile.
"Of course, she will be my sister after we get married."
Song Yan continued to look at her without smiling.
When Song Yan isn't smiling, he's very intimidating.
Lin Shuangyu's smile stiffened slightly, and he could no longer smile.
——
Lin Shuangyu contacted her best friend from high school.
Do you still remember Si Yuan?
Ding Momo replied, "How could I forget? That pervert who liked her brother?"
"yes."
"What's wrong?"
"She's very dishonest."
"Haven't you learned your lesson after being made like that?"
"Yes, she actually dared to provoke me again and again."
Ding Momo swore.
"If she hadn't offended other people later, and I hadn't dared to provoke them, she wouldn't have been able to leave so easily abroad."
Lin Shuangyu gave a cold laugh.
But suddenly, her expression changed.
Who did she offend back then?
"I'm not very familiar with her, and I've forgotten her name. But my sister warned me not to mess with that person. I've seen her before; she took Si Yuan away a few times, and then that bitch would come back pale and with red eyes. I guess she's not having an easy time either."
"You know what? That guy is incredibly handsome."
Lin Shuangyu turned off his phone.
Who could that person be?
What was his purpose in taking Si Yuan away?
Why did the man who bought the huge amount of jewelry for Si Yuan never show up from beginning to end?
Could Si Yuan's change be because of that man?
"Si Yuan, you better not let me find out that you're really dishonest."
Lin Shuangyu gritted his teeth.
Then he stood up and smashed his phone.
