While Shi Jinyan was upstairs, he deliberated for a long time outside Si Jingyu’s room before entering. While the door hadn’t yet been closed, Si Jingyu had already wrapped herself up with a bathrobe and was walking out of the bathroom.
Upon seeing Shi Jinyan, she immediately frowned. She stopped him from coming in, frowned again, and looked at him coldly with a scowl.
Zhuang Nainai could observe the situation in the room through the small gap between the door. She instantly stood rooted to the ground and felt that it really wasn’t a good time for her to be upstairs.
Zhuang Nainai decisively turned around. Yet, at this moment, she heard Shi Jinyan saying calmly, “Jingyu, I would like to talk to you.”
“What’s there to talk about? About when you plan to sign the divorce agreement?”
Upon hearing about the divorce agreement, Zhuang Nainai suddenly stopped in her tracks.
She raised her head quickly and looked up in disbelief.
Both of them acted like a harmonious and beautiful couple in front of Si Zhengting, yet they actually wanted a divorce?
Shi Jinyan paused. After quite some time, he said, “Jingyu, marriage is not child’s play, can you not bring up a divorce so lightly?”
Upon hearing this, Si Jingyu couldn’t help but twitch the corner of her lips. “Indeed, marriage is not child’s play. Therefore, Shi Jinyan, every sentence that I am about to say right now is a serious matter. Half a year ago, the moment she came back, I should have backed out, shouldn’t I?”
Si Jingyu stood there while clenching her fist tightly. This humiliation, in addition to the grief that she was experiencing, made her whole body tremble uncontrollably.
Shi Jinyan’s gaze dimmed as he extended his hand to support her shoulder. “Jingyu, I…”
“We’ve nothing to say to each other. I’ve already given you the divorce agreement before. I hope that you can sign it as soon as possible and return my freedom to me.” As soon as she had finished speaking, she directly pushed open the door. “Please leave, right now.”
As soon as she pushed open the door, she saw Zhuang Nainai with her mouth agape at the staircase.
Zhuang Nainai felt extremely embarrassed. She felt even more guilty than Sister and Brother-in-law for eavesdropping on their private conversation.
However, she really didn’t mean to eavesdrop on purpose!
Shi Jinyan extended his hands and tightly grasped onto Si Jingyu’s elbow. Just as he was about to say something, he sensed Si Jingyu’s line of sight and slowly turned his head around.
Upon seeing Zhuang Nainai, Shi Jinyan was also dumbfounded.
Shortly after, Zhuang Nainai headed downstairs while feeling extremely embarrassed. At the same time, she gestured to them. “Both of you… both of you carry on, please carry on…”
As soon as she had finished speaking, Si Jingyu said, “Nainai, I would like to talk to you regarding something else.”
Zhuang Nainai was surprised and speechless.
Although you’re Si Zhengting’s older sister, the two of us aren’t close at all! Sister, why are you using me as your shield?!
Unlike Si Zhengting, Shi Jinyan didn’t have such a strong aura. Neither was he cold and indifferent to the extent that he made people apprehensive. Despite that, the gaze that he conveniently cast was extremely terrifying.
Perhaps because of Ding Mengya, Zhuang Nainai didn’t want to get too close to the Si family, except for Si Zhengting himself.
Yet, thinking about what had happened yesterday, Zhuang Nainai couldn’t help but despise Shi Jinyan. He already had a son outside, why was he still trying to put on an act at home?
Zhuang Nainai smiled. She initially wanted to head downstairs, but now, she directly walked up the stairs. “Sure, I happen to be free as well,” she said while walking towards Si Jingyu’s room door.
There were two women — one was outside the room, the other was inside the room. Shi Jinyan was caught in between them.
He clenched his fist tightly. With a deep gaze, he eventually let out a deep sigh. “I’ll head downstairs first.”
