Chapter 186 Occasionally, he'd be kind once or twice.
Si Jingxu knew she was in a bad mood, so he video-called her to go to sleep.
No wonder so many people around me like being in a relationship.
How fun!
After Yan Buyu came along, his life was no longer so dull and boring.
Everything related to her made him interested.
Knowing she had fallen asleep, I reluctantly ended the video call and got up to dial a number.
"Young Master Si, it's so late, why are you calling me? Aren't you afraid your little girlfriend will get jealous?" A sleazy male voice came from the other end of the phone.
"Stop being sarcastic," Si Jingxu said, sitting at the table. He reached for his cigarette case, then paused, withdrew his hand, and played with the lighter in his hand. "What position have you achieved now?"
"Me? Of course I'm the boss."
A young man walked out of the noisy bar and skillfully wiped the blood from his hands onto his clothes.
Finding a quiet spot, he casually squatted down and asked, "What is it, Young Master Si? What are your orders?"
"Find someone," Si Jingxu instructed, "and don't let anyone know that the Si family is looking for this person."
Si Shaoyu said "Oh," and added, "It's urgent work, and it's a secret job, so I'll have to pay extra."
"Enough talk, I'll send you the basic information later." Si Jingxu tossed the lighter onto the table and leaned back in his chair. "When are you planning to come back?"
"That's up to Young Master Si," Si Shaoyu said, finding a way to sit down and ignoring the flirtatious glances from the blonde, blue-eyed girls passing by. "Do I, someone who's been sent overseas, have the right to negotiate?"
"Take this person's information and get back here." Si Jingxu hung up the phone.
His cousin has been out playing for far too long.
After speaking my mind, I felt relaxed and at ease, which led me to oversleep the next morning.
He rushed downstairs in a hurry.
"Slow down, slow down, your brother was just saying he was going to ask you for leave." Lan Xinyan stood up, afraid that she would fall.
"Mom." Yan Buyu snuggled into Lan Xinyan's arms and acted coquettishly. "I won't invite you anymore. I want to study hard."
"Come and eat. It's okay if you're late." Shen Yunqi pulled out a chair for her.
“You think everyone is like you?” Shen Zhiye glanced at him sideways. “Your sister is a good student.”
Shen Yunqi was used to it and ignored him.
Anyway, Lao Shen will never think highly of me.
“No rush,” Shen Yanzhou said. “Just have the driver go faster on the way. It’s okay to be a little late sometimes.”
He didn't bother to answer, and just kept stuffing food into his mouth.
It was still a bit late, but the teacher had a good impression of the well-behaved student, so she just gestured for her to go back to her seat and didn't say anything.
Qin Nianke could see that she was extremely excited.
He pulled her aside and whispered, "What happened after you drank too much on your birthday that day?"
Yan Buyu also said in a low voice, "I don't know, I blacked out from drinking."
Qin Nianke: ... "You need to practice this, you know?"
"You can train like this?" Yan Buyu looked at her in surprise. "How can you train? I get drunk and act crazy after just a couple of sips. It's not a matter of how much or how little, it's just that I act like that whenever I touch alcohol."
Qin Nianke stroked her chin, looking mature as she pondered, "Let me think... I know a master, I'll ask him for you later."
"Let's go to class." Yan Buyu took out his tablet. "I plan to learn Spanish this semester."
Qin Nianke opened her mouth, then said, "Never mind."
She didn't understand why she should study so much; wouldn't it be better to get a diploma and then go directly into management at her family's company?
"You and my cousin are a match made in heaven. He's so good at languages. You two won't even need a translator when you argue at the United Nations," Qin Nianke muttered softly.
Si Jingxu checked the time and decided to go to his girlfriend's school to have lunch with her.
I had just changed my clothes and gone downstairs when the housekeeper came over and said that we had guests visiting.
Si Jingxu raised an eyebrow. He lived in his own villa, and only a few close friends knew its location.
They will inform anyone who is coming in advance.
He walked over slowly and saw his cousin, whom he hadn't seen for many years, in the living room.
"Is Young Master Si heading out? I must have come at the wrong time," Si Shaoyu said, but he leaned back lazily on the sofa, showing no sign of guilt.
"You found out?" Si Jingxu wasn't surprised that it was him who came.
"A job with extra pay must be done quickly." Si Shaoyu picked up a few sheets of paper and placed them on the coffee table. "All of Yan Qihang's information."
"So little?" Si Jingxu picked it up. For someone his age, all he had were a few sheets of paper.
Si Shaoyu chuckled, "This guy is really unlucky. He was sent to prison when he was in his prime, and he stayed there for more than ten years without making any record of anything. But now that he's out, he's back to his carefree self."
Si Jingxu looked at the first two pictures, which were his experiences during his student days.
“Those two pictures are of the rich women he cheated on,” Si Shaoyu said, picking up a peach from the table and taking a bite. “He’s good-looking, but there are plenty of men who are more handsome than him. How come he can cheat on wave after wave of women?”
Si Jingxu ignored him and lazily flipped to the back.
Upon seeing a name, he paused, raised an eyebrow.
"What are we having for lunch?" Si Shaoyu was still hungry after finishing the peach.
"Eat whatever you like," Si Jingxu tossed the documents next to Si Shaoyu. "Take care of them. No one else can see them."
"I traveled all the way back with the information you wanted, aren't you going to treat me to a meal?" Si Shaoyu still had that carefree attitude.
Si Jingxu stood up and straightened his clothes. "I have a girlfriend and I'm going to have dinner with her. You're all alone, so you'll have to take care of yourself."
Si Shaoyu knew it, and laughed as she packed her things, "From now on, I'll have to take turns to eat and drink with my cousin."
Si Jingxu stopped at the door and turned to look at Si Shaoyu. "You haven't been back for so many years. Go visit your mother when you have time."
The smile vanished from Si Shaoyu's face, replaced by a cold indifference in his eyes. His nonchalant tone disappeared, and he spoke emotionlessly, "We're no longer related, so what's there to see?"
Si Jingxu did not try to persuade him further.
The relationship between the mother and son is complex and difficult to assess.
He didn't like to meddle in other people's business anyway.
I've been spending a lot of time with Yan Buyu lately, and I've occasionally shown kindness once or twice.
But it only happened once or twice.
Yan Buyu and Qin Nianke gossiped while eating hot pot noodles in the cafeteria.
The two sisters huddled together, looking so cute.
"So, when I said you like looking at muscular men, did my cousin hear me?" Qin Nianke asked cautiously. "He didn't hear me, did he?"
"With your loud voice, other people don't even need loudspeakers. Do you think I can hear you or not?"
Si Jingxu pulled out the chair opposite Yan Buyu and sat down, looking at Qin Nianke with disdain. "Aren't all those videos of muscular men on her social media forwarded by you?"
Qin Nianke couldn't swallow a single meatball.
He choked.
