Si Muyan feels very lucky to have met Huo Si. He is her salvation and leads her to a brand new life.
I thought I would no longer have anything to do with the Si family, but I forgot how could the Si family give up such a big cash cow.
One day, a lot of news suddenly broke out in Shangjingli.
The news said that Si Muyan married Huo Si based on the engagement between the Si and Huo families, but then kicked the Si family away.
What's more, he was even more malicious and whispered in Huo Si's ear, asking him to take action against the Si family.
Many people who didn't know the truth started to criticize Si Muyan for being unfilial and evil-hearted. Some even said she had forgotten her roots and that without the Si family, she wouldn't be where she is today.
Faced with this news, Si Muyan didn't mind.
In her opinion, it's better to just go your own way and let others talk. After all, they have their mouths, and it won't hurt to be criticized.
But Huo Si wouldn't allow it! How could the treasure he held in his hands be slandered like this?
Therefore, Huo Si specially organized a large-scale charity dinner and invited many business celebrities and political elites to attend.
When Si Muyan appeared, everyone's eyes turned to her.
Everyone was curious about what kind of person could make a Buddhist who had never been interested in women fall in love with him.
Coupled with the recent news, they are even more curious about Si Muyan.
Receiving those unfriendly glances, Si Muyan felt a little nervous.
"Yan Yan." A familiar yet unfamiliar voice came.
Si Muyan turned around and saw Si Nan looking at her kindly.
Looking at him, she couldn't bring herself to call him that. "Mr. Si," Si Muyan said calmly.
Hearing this name, the guests murmured. They wanted to criticize Si Muyan's behavior, but no one dared to speak out in front of Huo Si.
"Hey, Yanyan, I know you don't have a close relationship with your parents, but we are your biological parents after all. Your parents must feel really bad when you behave like this." Si Nan said in a heavy tone.
Looking at that face that had aged a dozen years in an instant, Si Muyan knew that he hadn't really aged because of her, but because of the company's affairs.
"Mr. Si, I'm really not used to you doing this. Just treat me the same way you usually do, really." Si Muyan responded politely.
Hearing this, Si Nan's expression froze. Taking advantage of this opportunity, Si Muyan pulled Huo Si away.
After sitting down, Si Muyan gently pulled Huo Si's sleeve: "Brother Si, why did you call him here?"
Huo Si patted her hand and said, "You'll know soon."
Seeing that he was keeping her in suspense, Si Muyan stopped asking questions. She knew that Huo Si would not harm her.
The auction has begun, and many items are on display tonight. Some wealthy businessmen, seeking fame, keep bidding.
Finally, here is the store’s treasure tonight, the jewelry of the Empress Dowager during the Qing Dynasty—high-quality jadeite jade, with a starting price of 500,000.
After several rounds of bidding, Huo Si bought it for 10 million yuan.
Hearing the price, Si Muyan couldn't help but sigh that she really didn't understand the world of the rich.
The host asked Huo Si to come on stage. He patted the back of her hand and then walked forward meaningfully.
On the stage paper, Huo Si looked at the guests below: "Thank you to all the friends who came to attend the charity gala tonight. This gala is held for my wife."
After he finished speaking, Xie Yunchen whistled and led the applause. Seeing this, the other guests followed suit and applauded.
"The jade artifact just now will be donated to the National Museum in the name of my wife. In addition, my wife and I will donate 10 million to support poor children in mountainous areas." Huo Si announced loudly.
There was an uproar, and Si Muyan was equally shocked. Twenty million was spent in just a flash?
"Mr. Huo truly has boundless love," the host praised.
"No, it's my wife who truly has great love. As everyone knows, my wife was mistakenly taken away and ended up in the mountains. She knows the hardships of left-behind children and how helpless children in impoverished areas are. She is a kind-hearted girl and has always wanted to help them."
Si Muyan's heart was pounding, and her eyes were always fixed on the man on the stage.
"Not only now, but every year from now on, my wife and I will donate 10 million to the mountainous areas. Lately, I've heard many people say that my wife is selfish, forgetful, and cold-hearted. In fact, she is kind-hearted, but some people are not worthy of my wife's concern."
After Huo Si finished speaking, everyone looked at Si Nan.
Si Nan was embarrassed and didn't know what to say for a moment.
Huo Si didn't give the other party a chance to struggle, and glanced at Xu Jie who was not far away. The latter understood and directly played the projection.
When seeing the content of the screening, Si Muyan was shocked, and Si Nan's face was as pale as a freshly painted white wall.
The projection showed Si Muyan's parents' indifference towards him over the past few years since he returned to the Si family. Also, at school, Si Tong took advantage of Si Muyan's parents' favor and bullied her.
Finally, a servant of the Si family came forward and told how cold-blooded the Si family was to Si Muyan.
"My wife is kind-hearted but not stupid. There is no reason for her to repay evil with kindness. She has done her best by not adding insult to injury." Huo Si said coldly.
Si Nan originally thought that Huo Si came today to repair his relationship with Si Muyan and stop the rumors, but he didn't expect...
"As for my marriage to my wife, it has nothing to do with the Si family. After all, the Si family wanted their adopted daughter to marry me instead." Huo Si said coldly.
Tonight's auction was a grand affair, with not only celebrities from all walks of life but also numerous reporters. For a moment, all the spotlights were on Si Nan.
Si Nan was fidgeting when his cell phone suddenly rang. Seeing the caller ID, Si Nan quickly answered the phone: "Hello, what?!"
After ending the call, Si Nan stood up tremblingly. He walked to Si Muyan and knelt down with a plop.
Seeing this, Si Muyan was shocked: "You are..."
"Yan Yan, we were the ones who wronged you in the beginning. Please help the Si family for once for the sake of blood." Si Nan pleaded.
Ten minutes ago, the bank suddenly came to Si's company and said the company was going bankrupt.
Si Muyan looked at him kneeling on the ground, feeling unhappy, but shook her head firmly: "I have no relationship with the Si family anymore. When you allowed Si Tong to kill me on the cruise ship, I was already heartbroken."
Having said that, Si Muyan stood up.
"Yan Yan! Just help the Si family this time..." Si Nan wanted to struggle, but was dragged out by the security guard.
"Yan Yan! I'm your biological father, you can't just ignore me..."
The sound faded away, but the guests at the scene saw it clearly.
"So the Si family is so evil! If I were Miss Si, I would have taken revenge on them long ago. It seems that Miss Si is very kind."
"That's right. Even if love knows no boundaries, it still depends on whether some people are worthy of it. Parents like these are worse than pigs and dogs."
At this moment, Si Muyan finally understood the purpose of Huo Si holding this charity event.
Someone held her cold hand, and Si Muyan looked at him sideways with a sweet smile.
Si Nan was kicked out. He knew that after tonight, no one would help him and there was no hope for the Si family.
"I was wrong, I was wrong..." Si Nan knelt on the ground in despair, covering his face and crying.
But he had worked hard to run the company for decades, and he didn't want it to be destroyed in his hands.
Just when he was in despair, a pair of legs suddenly appeared in front of him, and Si Nan slowly raised his head...
