Si Zhengting understood Shi Jinyan’s words and nodded. This time, he did not even want to spend his energy beating him up.
When he beat him last time, it was because he felt that he had done Si Jingyu wrong but thought that they could still be together.
But now…
Si Zhengting looked down and said very coldly, “The cooperation between the Imperial Group and Hua Pu over the land in the city’s east is canceled.”
As soon as he said this, Shi Jinyan looked up and his brows were knitted tightly. However, he remained silent before nodding moments later.
Si Zhengting continued, “Please sign the divorce agreement soon. I will agree to every condition you list on behalf of Si Jingyu.”
Shi Jinyan pursed his lips again and remained silent.
Si Zhengting’s attitude was very distant and cold, as if he was interacting with a stranger. After saying these words, he raised his head again to look at Bai Yue and Xin Xin.
He scrutinized Xin Xin’s face for a moment. Then, he turned around and left as he held Zhuang Nainai.
Watching him walk away, Shi Jinyan was completely dazed.
He knew that the marriage between him and Si Jingyu really could not be maintained anymore with Si Zhengting’s interference.
At the moment, he actually wished Si Zhengting would beat him up because at least that meant that Si Zhengting still saw him as his friend and Brother-in-law.
However, he was so cold…
Shi Jinyan suddenly looked down as a bitter smile spread across his face.
He had never wanted much, but why did God always play a joke on him?
As he thought of this, his gaze became even more aloof and cold, devoid of any warmth.
Approaching Bai Yue and Xin Xin, he was met with Bai Yue’s earnest gaze. Bai Yue calmed herself down for a moment before saying, “Jinyan, I have loved you for all these years. I’m filled with regrets now. I shouldn’t have left you in a pique back then. I should have stayed by your side. Jinyan, it’s over between you and Si Jingyu. For the sake of Xin Xin, can’t you accept me again?”
After she said this, her tears started rolling down her cheeks. “Jinyan, Aunt, Uncle, I know I did something wrong! I did something terribly and utterly wrong! But Xin Xin is still so young, he needs a family!”
“As the eldest daughter of a wealthy family like the Si’s, Si Jingyu can’t possibly be the child’s stepmother. Why can’t all of you accept me? Aunt, Uncle, at least you guys watched me grow up!”
Bai Yue’s wails caused Mother Shi and Father Shi to become softhearted.
Si Jingyu would not forgive their son and Xin Xin was such a cute and young child, he was so sensible…
Xin Xin grabbed Bai Yue’s hand and then held Grandma’s hand before looking up at them. “Grandma, Grandpa, Xin Xin will be obedient. Dad, don’t abandon me and Mom…”
His baby voice especially tugged at people’s heartstrings.
Bai Yue looked at Shi Jinyan expectantly. Mother Shi also could not help but look at him. “Yan…”
Father Shi let out a deep sigh and tugged at Mother Shi.
Mother Shi got cut off. Then, she immediately turned to look at Father Shi.
Father Shi said, “Old woman, this is Yan’s private matters. You shouldn’t interfere.”
Mother Shi answered instantly, “What do you mean by shouldn’t interfere? Xin Xin is our grandson! Jingyu isn’t coming back. She doesn’t want to be with our son anymore. Are you expecting our son to be single for the rest of his life? Do you want Xin Xin to just have a dad or just have a mom? Just take a look at those children who grew up in a single-parent family. Which of them is actually emotionally and physically healthy?”
