Have more relationships?
Si Tingyu's handsome face darkened slightly.
These unconventional men and women are great; they're all encouraging Shu Mowan to date more.
Shu Mowan was both amused and exasperated: "Stop fooling around!"
She's so young; she should use the time she has for dating to focus on her career.
"This is the heir of the Si family. He's a bit older than us, so just call him Brother Si like I do."
She introduced Si Tingyu.
Everyone immediately abandoned their curiosity about Si Tingyu.
"So it was Master Si who took the initiative to break off the childhood betrothal with my little Wanwan."
Someone made a sarcastic remark, "What brings you here today, sir?"
They were sworn to follow Shu Mowan to the death and were extremely protective of her. Although they didn't want her to be tied up with a childhood betrothal at such a young age, not wanting it was one thing, but having it broken off by someone else was another.
They must look down on their little Wanwan so much to be so eager to break off the relationship.
Although Si Tingyu later changed his mind, they still refused to give him a friendly look.
Can you just break up with me whenever you want, or go back on your word and chase after me whenever you want? What does Xiao Wanwan think she is? Something you can just throw away and pick up at will?
Who is this person with such a big face?
Si Tingyu coughed lightly.
He never expected that his impulsive decision to break off the arranged marriage would be remembered by so many people.
"It was my mistake to break off the arranged marriage; I will punish myself with three cups of wine."
He didn't want to explain too much. He went over, poured himself a glass of wine, tilted his head back, and drank it all in one gulp. Then he poured himself two more glasses, gulped them down, and turned the glass upside down to show everyone that he didn't mix his drinks.
"Can you forgive my impulsive act?"
He looked at them with a sincere and earnest expression.
The group exchanged bewildered glances, somewhat surprised.
Because of Shu Mowan, they had investigated Si Tingyu.
Decisive and ruthless, calm and composed, and aloof... This is how his business rivals describe him.
They thought Si Tingyu wouldn't stoop to apologize, but they didn't expect him to be so approachable.
People like them, who dress in an unconventional way, will receive strange looks when they go out, but the heir, who has been strictly trained by him, treats them almost like friends.
This person is not what they expected.
"Isn't punishing yourself with three cups of wine enough?"
Seeing that the group hadn't spoken for a long time, Si Tingyu wanted to continue pouring wine as punishment, but Shu Mowan stopped him, saying, "Brother Si, that's enough, they were just joking with you."
They're just being protective of their own, thinking that if the arranged marriage is to be dissolved, it should be her who brings it up, which is why they're so critical of Si Tingyu.
But since Si Tingyu had already punished himself with alcohol, it would be unreasonable for them to act arrogantly any further.
"Yeah, Brother Si, just kidding, don't take it seriously."
Receiving a warning look from Shu Mowan, the group quickly spoke up.
"Come, sit down."
Someone invited Si Tingyu to sit down.
Seeing that Shu Mowan sat naturally between them, Si Tingyu had no choice but to sit on the sofa opposite him.
"Brother Si, didn't you break off your childhood betrothal with Xiao Wanwan? Why are you still following her?"
One of them had several ear piercings and a nose ring, making her look like a pretty and delicate young delinquent. She leaned forward slightly and stared at Si Tingyu, asking him curiously.
She only learned that Si Tingyu regretted breaking off the childhood betrothal, but she couldn't find out the reason.
"I'm pursuing her, so naturally I'm a bit clingy."
Si Tingyu seemed to be answering the girl, but his gaze was fixed intently on Shu Mowan.
Under the flickering, ambiguous light, her beautiful face appeared even more exquisite, like a tempting peach waiting to be picked.
His sexy Adam's apple bobbed twice, and he seemed a little distracted.
But he quickly regained his composure and his expression returned to normal.
Apart from Shu Mowan being alert to gazes, no one noticed the changes in his body in such a short period of time.
"You were the one who wanted to break off the arranged marriage, so why have you suddenly taken a liking to my little Wanwan?"
The girl looked like she wanted to get to the bottom of things.
Shu Mowan coughed lightly.
This was a signal for her to ask fewer questions and not be so gossipy.
The girl pretended not to understand and continued to look at Si Tingyu.
"She saved my life."
Si Tingyu replied in a good-natured manner, "When I opened my eyes and saw her on my deathbed, a thought flashed through my mind: it would be nice to marry her."
Because of this thought, he even overlooked the fact that Shu Mowan resembled Yun Yun in her youth.
Even later, when she thought back and heard that the Shu family had recognized their youngest daughter, she still couldn't connect Shu Mowan with the adorable child she remembered from her childhood.
That's why I impulsively went to the Shu family to break off the childhood betrothal.
And that's how the infamous "wife-chasing-after-the-cremation" scene came about.
It would be a lie to say I don't regret it.
The dictionary says that Master Si is someone who never regrets his moves, but every night before going to sleep, he wants to slap himself twice.
She ruined her perfectly good status as a fiancé herself.
The girl smiled meaningfully and said, "So, Master Si also likes the idea of repaying a life-saving debt with one's body."
I thought someone like Si Tingyu would just throw money at someone who saved my life.
However, after glancing at Xiao Wanwan, she felt it was perfectly normal for him to offer himself in return.
Such a beautiful woman, if she were a man, she would also want to win her over and then hide her away.
It depends on the person.
As Si Tingyu spoke, his gaze swept over Shu Mowan again, "If this savior wasn't Mowan, I would have chosen to repay her with money."
"Oh~"
The girl deliberately dragged out the last syllable and looked at Shu Mowan teasingly, saying, "Little Wanwan, you're an exception."
