Chapter 379 How do you know she's not enjoying life?
Si Jingxu put away her smile, picked up her pen, pointed to the place she had just read, and said seriously, "This statement is incorrect, there is a grammatical problem, please do it again."
She thought he would assist her.
In that instant, Shen Buyu seemed to see the fearsome heir of the Si family in the business world.
She had never seen him like this before.
But she wasn't afraid; in fact, she was quite sexy.
When Song Jingyi returned to the manor, Mu Zi told him that his younger sister was still studying in the study.
He went over and happened to see Si Jingxu carrying her out while she was asleep.
The two exchanged a glance, and neither of them spoke, as if by unspoken agreement.
After Si Jingxu placed the person on the bed and tiptoed out of the bedroom, Song Jingyi said, "Want a couple of drinks?"
"OK."
Inside the garden, Si Jingxu clinked glasses with Song Jingyi. "Your estate is quite nice. Keep an eye out for similar properties for sale later."
“Yes, it’s a 15-minute helicopter ride away, about the same size as me. It’s being modified,” Song Jingyi said with a hint of regret, taking a sip of his drink. “But you can’t buy one.”
"What do you mean?" Si Jingxu put down his wine glass.
“I bought it,” Song Jingyi chuckled, “it’s part of my little fish’s dowry.”
Si Jingxu smiled and shook his head, "You've been elusive these past few days, busy with this."
“I can tell that Xiaoyu likes places like this,” Song Jingyi poured drinks for the two of them, “but there are too many people here, so she doesn’t feel comfortable.”
She prefers quiet places with fewer people.
Si Jingxu remained silent, and Song Jingyi followed his lead.
Although Little Feather didn't say it, her eyes lit up when she saw the manor's vast lawns and colorful gardens after arriving.
The only drawback is that there are too many people coming and going.
Even though they all consciously avoided disturbing her, the child was still a little awkward.
He wanted her to be free and unrestrained, to play as she pleased in her own territory.
However, Song Jingyi beat him to it.
Si Jingxu lowered her eyes in thought. It wasn't impossible to create a similar one for her in China.
That would be more convenient.
"Why is she so fond of studying?" Song Jingyi thought of his younger sister who had fallen asleep while studying, a pang of heartache crossing his eyes. "Is there a strict requirement?"
“When she was little, she thought the Shen family didn’t welcome her, so she studied hard, partly to gain respect from others and partly to be able to stand on her own two feet in the future,” Si Jingxu said softly. “Now, she wants to try to get an internship opportunity.”
Song Jingyi tightened his grip on the wine glass.
That's because she had a very miserable life in her past life, so she tries hard to make herself valuable in this life, right?
Feelings of self-reproach welled up in my heart again.
If he had found her sooner in his past life, she wouldn't have...
“She’s doing well now,” Si Jingxu said, seeing Song Jingyi’s guilt. “Learning more won’t do her any harm.”
“Even if her family is rich, even if anyone can give her the best life?” Song Jingyi looked at Si Jingxu with a deep gaze. “She should enjoy life, not live such a hard life.”
Si Jingxu looked back and smiled, "How do you know she wasn't enjoying life?"
She has the best family in the world and a group of friends she can have fun with.
Not having to worry about salary, striving and working hard for what she likes—isn't that what she wants?
"She doesn't pursue material life and is never picky about food, clothing, housing, or transportation. Now her biggest goal is to enter the translation department based on her own talents and skills. She is striving for what she wants, so how could she not be happy?"
Song Jingyi listened quietly, looking at Si Jingxu in front of him. At this moment, he understood why Xiaoyu liked this man so much.
It's not just about good looks.
Because Si Jingxu understands her.
From the perspective of the young master of the Si family, he never felt that her ideals were insignificant.
Instead of mocking her, they stayed up late with her, working tirelessly to correct her mistakes again and again.
"So, the young master of the Si family is willing to be a tutor?" Song Jingyi asked with a smile.
Si Jingxu sighed, "There's nothing I can do. My girlfriend loves learning too much, and I can't hold her back. What if she thinks I'm just a handsome but useless bum? That would be so disappointing."
Song Jingyi didn't say anything, but smiled and raised his glass to clink with Si Jingxu's.
Shen Buyu woke up early the next day and practiced French listening for an hour in his room before going downstairs.
"Brother!" The brother, whom she hadn't seen for several days, was sitting and chatting with her boyfriend.
"Little Fish." Song Jingyi was happy to see his energetic younger sister.
Si Jingxu was right; she didn't see studying as a burden, but instead became more energetic.
"Are you going out again today? Are you done with your work? Are you tired? Why are you working so hard?" Shen Buyu asked a series of questions.
Every word omits the mention of longing, yet every sentence is filled with heartache.
"I'm done with work. You won't have any more problems while you're in Italy. I'll take you out for some fun today." Song Jingyi reached out and patted her head. "Let's eat first."
Shen Buyu smiled and agreed. She then turned to tease Si Jingxu, "Brother Jingxu, my brother and I are going out to play today. Are you coming?"
Si Jingxu was amused and exasperated; this kid was getting more and more mischievous.
He wouldn't have come to Italy if it weren't for being with her.
"What? You were so great when you needed me to tutor you in French, but now that you can't use me anymore, you're kicking me to the curb? Miss Shen, are you really that pragmatic?"
Shen Buyu pursed her lips and asked Song Jingyi, "Brother, do you know Lin Daiyu?"
"That little girl who's always being sarcastic and drinks vinegar like water?" Song Jingyi thought for a moment, and realized that his sister's description was quite accurate.
"Shen Buyu," Si Jingxu called to her, his eyes narrowed.
"Ai, what's wrong, Brother Jingxu?" Shen Buyu responded coquettishly, as if nothing had happened.
Si Jingxu couldn't help but laugh. "Let's go eat."
"Okay."
Song Jingyi has lived in Italy for many years, but he has never really explored or had a proper visit to Italy.
Knowing the way and the destination, he had no interest in going out to see the scenery or wander around.
Today, with his sister here, he'd like to act as her guide for once.
Tell her where there are beautiful views and delicious food.
He drove himself, with his sister and her boyfriend in tow, leisurely strolling through the Italian neighborhood.
Acheng was sitting in the passenger seat, and he managed to squeeze Muzi out by using his thick skin.
Shen Buyu and Si Jingxu sat in the back row, experiencing the local customs and culture of this foreign country.
"Miss, look at that castle-like building, isn't it quite respectable? It's very lively at night, only for female guests. There are all kinds of men inside, all of them high quality. When Young Master Si is not around, I'll treat you to a visit."
Si Jingxu glared at him with a cold face.
Shen Buyu suppressed a laugh, feeling that she needed to have a serious talk with Acheng about this issue.
Otherwise, who knows, she might actually bring some of these children back to her someday.
"Acheng, you should know that I have a boyfriend, and besides, I'm not interested in any of these things."
