Miss Si's feigned innocence went too far, and the aloof Mr. Bo was easily swayed.

Sometimes being born smart is not a good thing.

In just a moment, Si Yuan already knew the true purpose of Si Aofu's invitation to visit the Fu family.

turn out to be--

He started by calling her to ask her to meet him.

The diamond necklace I gave her, and the meticulous care I've shown her these past few days, were all for this moment.

turn out to be--

My sister doesn't just not hate her, she hates her to death.

Pretending to be friends with someone is a very difficult thing.

My sister made her favorite glutinous rice cakes and dishes. Was it to lower her guard, or did she feel a little guilty about hurting her?

hehe--

It turns out this was a trap carefully prepared by her older sister.

Si Yuan suddenly felt very tired.

Seeing Si Aofu bustling around in the kitchen, and thinking of how happy Bo Yusen and Gu Mingyue looked, she slowly closed her eyes...

She could have simply left, but she didn't.

When she opened her eyes again, all the sadness and sorrow in them were gone, replaced by a smile.

In the kitchen.

Si Aofu gritted her teeth when she saw the WeChat message from Fu Qidong.

[Ah Yuan is very wary; we have to take it slow and not let her find out.]

Fu Qidong: [You're not having second thoughts, are you?]

Si Aofu's hand holding the phone trembled slightly.

She turned her head and glanced at the restaurant, just in time to see Si Yuan smiling at her.

Si Aofu gripped her phone tightly and typed two words.

【No.】

Fu Qidong: [Okay, let her eat more. I can enjoy myself more when she's full.]

Si Aofu didn't reply again. She put her phone in her pocket, composed herself, and carried the last dish to the dining table.

Si Yuan smiled and said enthusiastically, "Wow, these are all my favorite dishes, thank you, sister..."

Seeing Si Yuan's smile, Si Aofu couldn't smile back. "The weather is perfect today. It's rare for us to get together, so let's have a drink."

The red wine on the table had already been decanted. Si Yuan glanced at it, then smiled even more broadly, "Great..."

Si Aofu personally poured red wine for Si Yuan, and then poured herself a glass.

Si Yuan gently swirled the red wine in her glass, her small face hidden behind the glass, lost in thought.

Si Aofu was startled. Had A Yuan discovered something?

"Wha...what's wrong?"

Seeing Si Aofu's nervous look, Si Yuan thought to herself, "So even my older sister can feel guilty."

In fact, many details don't stand up to scrutiny; she was simply so immersed in the joy of reconciling with her sister that she completely ignored the details.

Si Yuan smiled at Si Aofu, "No... This is the first time my sister has poured me wine, and it's also the first time my sister and I have drunk together. I'm very happy..."

Si Aofu felt as if her heart was being squeezed tightly by a hand; every breath was painful.

She couldn't stand Si Yuan looking at her with such innocent eyes, and she couldn't stand her smiling at her like that.

She hated Si Yuan, but her hatred was also based on love.

If it weren't for their deep sisterly bond, she wouldn't have felt so much hatred when Si Yuan betrayed her.

She opened her mouth for a long time before finally uttering a sound, "In the future... there will be many more opportunities to drink together."

Si Yuan smiled and nodded. "Mm."

"By the way, sister, do you remember my deskmate in elementary school named Chen Miaomiao?"

Si Aofu was eager for Si Yuan to drink the drugged wine as soon as possible, and upon hearing Si Yuan's words, she replied perfunctorily, "I don't remember."

Si Yuan smiled and continued, "She said her sister was pretty, and I said my sister was pretty. We fought over whose sister was prettier. In the end, when you came to pick me up, she saw that her sister wasn't as pretty as you, so she broke off all contact with me."

Hearing Si Yuan say this, Si Aofu did indeed recall that such a thing had happened.

But why did she bring up things from the past?

Si Yuan: "Another time, I made a bet with some other kids to go exploring a haunted house. I didn't come home late at night, and you found me and carried me home. When my mom punished me, you took the punishment for me..."

Don't let Si Yuan's current well-behaved appearance fool you; she was more mischievous than any boy when she was little.

This is a typical "I'll never do it again, but I'll do it again next time" type.

He admits his mistakes very quickly.

Seeing that she repeatedly failed to correct her ways, Si Qingwan always punished her.

When Si Zhixia was alive, Si Zhixia protected her; after Si Zhixia died, it was Si Aofu who continued to protect her.

But Si Aofu is a daughter, unlike Si Zhixia who can be on equal footing with Si Qingwan.

Unable to speak, she could only suffer the punishment alongside A-Yuan.

Thinking of the past, Si Aofu's face turned pale and unsightly, and her fingers gripped the wine glass so tightly that they turned white.

"besides……"

"alright……"

Si Aofu interrupted Si Yuan coldly, then gave a dry laugh, "If you keep going, the food will get cold. Come on... finish this drink, and let's eat..."

Si Yuan looked at Si Aofu quietly. She said so much, hoping that her sister would give up what she was doing now, for the sake of the past.

Clearly, Si Aofu had made up her mind.

Si Yuan was utterly despondent.

It doesn't matter anymore, anyway, this broken body of mine is of no use.

As long as my sister can feel better and happy, that's all that matters.

Si Yuan gently touched Si Aofu's wine glass with her own.

Before drinking, Si Yuan smiled at Si Aofu with red eyes and said, "Sister, I can't hold my liquor well, and I've never changed my phone password. If I get drunk, could you please use my phone to call Xingzhu and ask her to come pick me up?"

"……good."

"Thanks."

For a fleeting moment, when Si Yuan brought the wine glass to her lips, Si Aofu really wanted to knock the glass out of her hand.

But when she saw Fu Qidong standing on the second floor, glaring at her menacingly, her body froze in place, gripped by fear.

She watched helplessly as Si Yuan drank the wine she had personally handed her, which was laced with a sleeping potion.

Setting down her wine glass, Si Yuan pretended to be nonchalant and picked up a piece of tomato beef brisket with her chopsticks.

"tasty……"

She tasted every dish until she felt increasingly dizzy, at which point she put down her chopsticks.

"Sister, I'm a little sleepy, I'll rest for a while."

Hearing Si Yuan call her "sister" repeatedly, Si Aofu felt as if her heart was being torn apart.

"I...I'll help you..."

"good……"

Before she even reached the sofa, Si Yuan collapsed into Si Aofu's arms.

Si Aofu's body stiffened, and her hand supporting Si Yuan trembled.

Fu Qidong came down from the second floor and snatched Si Yuan from Si Aofu's hands.

Seeing Si Aofu's red eyes and her face contorted in struggle and pain, Fu Qidong sneered, "Since you've already made your decision, who are you trying to fool with that expression?"

Si Aofu clenched her fists tightly, her body trembling uncontrollably.

"Bang—"

The sound of the door being kicked shut sent a chill down Si Aofu's spine.

She slumped on the sofa like a lost soul, her face deathly pale.

Her reddened gaze fell blankly on Si Yuan's phone, and Si Yuan's voice echoed in her mind.

As if possessed, she walked over, picked up Si Yuan's phone, and entered the password she knew.

The phone turned on as expected.

Upon seeing Si Yuan's screensaver, Si Aofu could no longer hold back her tears.

Si Yuan's phone screen saver was a photo taken together by Si Aofu when they graduated from high school.

At that time, Si Yuan was only in the second year of junior high school. She was wearing her school uniform and holding Si Aofu's arm. The two sisters were both smiling happily.

Si Yuan's phone password has always been Si Aofu's birthday.

Even though a rift had developed between them, and even though Si Aofu always made sarcastic and sarcastic remarks whenever she saw her, Si Yuan never changed her phone password.

"Ah Yuan..."

Si Aofu's fingers gently touched Si Yuan's smiling face, and she suddenly woke up.

no--

I can't let that beast Fu Qidong ruin me already, I can't let him ruin A Yuan too.

Si Aofu knew perfectly well that she couldn't rescue Si Yuan from Fu Qidong's clutches by herself.

In the entire capital, if anyone has the ability to rescue Si Yuan, there is only one person—

Bo Yusen.

Si Aofu immediately opened Si Yuan's contacts, but after searching for a long time, she couldn't find Bo Yusen's phone number.

Damn it, could it be that they deleted each other's contact information after breaking up?

It wasn't until Si Aofu saw the note for "Sanmu" that she understood.

Remembering how Ah Yuan often mentioned Brother Sanmu when they were little, Si Aofu instantly understood and immediately called him.

The phone rang several times, but the other party did not answer.

Si Aofu was extremely anxious, biting her thumb in frustration, "Answer the phone... answer the phone..."

Just as the phone was about to ring out and Si Aofu thought Bo Yusen wouldn't answer, the call was connected...

But the other party did not speak.

"Mr. Bo, is that you? Mr. Bo... I'm Si Aofu..."

"What is it?"

Upon hearing Bo Yusen's voice, Si Aofu burst into tears, "President Bo... please save A-Yuan... please..."

Si Aofu couldn't guarantee 100% that Bo Yusen would come to save Si Yuan, after all, the two had already broken up.

And the division was so brutal.

But she had no one else to turn to, so she could only place her hopes on Bo Yusen.

I hope Bo Yusen doesn't hate A Yuan that much, and I hope he'll act as a savior out of consideration for their childhood friendship.

"Where?"

Upon hearing those three words, Si Aofu finally felt relieved.

"At the Fu family's..."

She had just given him her address when the call was disconnected.

Si Aofu breathed a heavy sigh of relief, then suddenly remembered something and rushed upstairs.

In the master bedroom.

Si Yuan lay quietly on the bed, and on the wall in the center of the headboard hung Fu Qidong and Si Aofu's wedding photo.

Anyway, he had a day and a night, so Fu Qidong wasn't in a hurry.

He sat on the bed and touched Si Yuan's face, and couldn't help but sigh, "This face is really beautiful."

"Oh dear... If I had known this would happen, I should have waited for you to grow up before I married you instead of that bitch Si Aofu."

"Tsk tsk, her skin is really smooth. No wonder she is Si Qingwan's most proud daughter."

"Ah Yuan... if you marry me, I will definitely cherish you and pamper you, instead of being like that idiot Xiang Mingche, who married an ugly and brainless Si Yingying and gave up such a perfect you..."

Fu Qidong took off his glasses, revealing his true fierce and vicious nature, like a wild beast shedding its skin.

"But I still have to thank that idiot Xiang Mingche. If he hadn't abandoned you, I really wouldn't have had the chance to be with you..."

Fu Qidong leaned close to Si Yuan's neck and took a deep breath, revealing an infatuated expression.

"Ah... A-Yuan, you are so captivating..."

He reached out to unbutton Si Yuan's clothes, "Today, your brother-in-law will pamper you and help you get over your heartbreak."
