Reborn Aristocrat: Return of the Vicious Heiress Chapter 1150

Chapter 1150 - Xu Zhenyu and I…

A sullen look formed in Si Yiyan’s eyes as he glanced at her chin which had become much sharper than before. Her collarbones began to protrude all of a sudden and her already thin figure made her look weak and feeble.

Wen Xinya winked at him and racked her brains in a bid to find an excuse to convince him.

Si Yiyan caressed her face affectionately and said softly, “Xinya, you’ve lost weight!”

Yes, she’s lost weight!

Wen Xinya was a premature baby and did not receive proper nutrition during her childhood. Hence, she was much weaker than normal people. Although she was not a picky eater, it was difficult to nurse her body back to health and, despite having put in lots of effort into feeding her with proper nutrition, Si Yiyan only managed to make her gain a little bit of weight. Yet, she lost it all within two weeks of military training.

He reckoned that it would take a long time for her to put the weight back on again. How could he not feel sorry about that?

Wen Xinya stared at him in puzzlement and she thought to herself, We’re not on the same frequency, are we? His imagination is really wild. We were just talking about military training. Why has the subject turned into this all of a sudden?

Si Yiyan ignored her and continued, “I’ve only been away from you for two weeks and yet, you’ve already ended up in such a terrible plight. So, you’d better not try and challenge me or change my mind.”

Making Wen Xinya pull out of the military training program was Si Yiyan’s best bet, be it because of her health or Xu Zhenyu’s presence. However, he did not wish to go against her wishes and hence… made a compromise. Thus… she also had to make a compromise.

Wen Xinya immediately shut up. Although Si Yiyan was usually easygoing, it was all because he was giving in to her. He had strong willpower that could not be ruined at all. He wouldn’t be easily distracted from his goals, either. Hence, once he had decided on something, others would be left with no choice but to comply.

Si Yiyan continued, “Besides, I don’t like it when you’re too close to Xu Zhenyu or interact with him too often. Look… that’s how much I don’t wish for you to continue with the military training program. I’ve already compromised too much.”

Wen Xinya glared at him and barked. “What does this have anything to do with Xu Zhenyu!?!”

Si Yiyan detested Xu Zhenyu the most and was more wary of him than he was towards Chu Jingnan or Zhong Rufeng. She had never hidden her concern towards Xu Zhenyu before, either. Si Yiyan was no fool and in fact, he was incredibly intelligent. She reckoned that he must have acted that way because he had sensed how much she cared about Xu Zhenyu.

Wen Xinya stared at him and said with a slight frown, “Si Yiyan, Xu Zhenyu and I…”

She wanted to explain to him, but could not bring herself to at the last minute because she had no idea how she should tell him about Xu Zhenyu. After all, she couldn’t possibly tell him that she had already died once and used to be in a knotty relationship with Xu Zhenyu in her previous lifetime.

No, she couldn’t do that.

Firstly, if she were to do that, it would be hard to explain herself to Si Yiyan, especially since she and Xu Zhenyu had gotten involved with each other in both lifetimes.

Of course, the secret about her rebirth was something that she planned to keep to herself. She did not want anyone, including Si Yiyan, to find out about it. It was not because she didn’t trust him, but rather, it was because… the secret was just too unbelievable and absurd.

Si Yiyan stared at her and asked, “What’s between you and him?”

If Wen Xinya were to listen carefully, she would be able to tell how overbearing he sounded.

Unfortunately, Wen Xinya was too immersed in her own thoughts to notice. Afraid that he would get the wrong idea, she immediately exclaimed, “Nothing! There’s nothing between us.”

A look of disappointment formed in Si Yiyan’s eyes, though he was not too bothered by the fact that she was close to Xu Zhenyu. The thing that bothered him the most, was how she felt towards him. Since she was honest with her feelings… there was no need for him to bear a grudge and harp on it.

Realizing that she sounded a little too harsh, Wen Xinya suppressed her emotions and explained clearly, “Si Yiyan, Xu Zhenyu and I have always been just friends and nothing more.”

She had always treated Xu Zhenyu solely as a friend in both her lifetimes. Even when she was suffering a drug addiction, she never once betrayed herself in exchange for some comfort. Even when Xu Zhenyu hugged her, she would still stay rational and not cross the line.

Si Yiyan said, “I’ve never doubted your relationship with Xu Zhenyu. I’m just jealous that you pay more attention to him than you do me.”

Be it in the past or present, Wen Xinya had always paid excessive attention to Xu Zhenyu. Had he not known that she only saw him as a close friend, he would have gotten rid of Xu Zhenyu a long time ago.

Wen Xinya could not help but be greatly taken aback. “How… how do I begin?”

She clearly wanted to retort, but somehow began to feel guilty. She began to reflect on herself and gradually… broke out into cold sweat. She began to feel more and more guilty towards Si Yiyan.

Noticing that she seemed to be out of sorts, Si Yiyan said, “Since you’re feeling unwell, don’t let your imagination run wild. We still have a long way to go, you can take your time. Don’t be too impatient.”

Although he was bothered by Xu Zhenyu, he would not allow it to cause a strain on his relationship with Wen Xinya. He felt that they could take their time to iron out their issues and the most important thing to focus on now was her health.

Wen Xinya was extremely touched by how understanding he was. He held her waist tightly and said affectionately, “I owe Xu Zhenyu too much and I’ll always be indebted to him. I pay attention to him because I care about him, and I just want him to live well. I don’t mean anything else.”

She could not help but voice her opinions.

Actually… in this lifetime, she met Xu Zhenyu after she met Si Yiyan. Hence, Si Yiyan would be able to find out about everything between them so long as he looked into it. She actually did not owe Xu Zhenyu anything in this lifetime… Si Yiyan might be smart, but…. he definitely wouldn’t be able to think of such an absurd thing!

He wouldn’t!

Probably not!

Si Yiyan’s eyes glistened and he changed the subject. “Does your stomach still hurt?”

Wen Xinya had always kept her guard up against others. However, she trusted Xu Zhenyu completely. In fact, she seemed to trust him more than she trusted Si Yiyan. That seemed to be the case right from the start…

That was Si Yiyan’s biggest concern and the thing he was the most jealous about. He had even once thought about it in detail!

However, he had never received an actual answer from her before. Actually, there were plenty of inexplicable things about Wen Xinya which he did not wish to dwell on or look into. Hence, he decided not to make any speculations.

Wen Xinya said coquettishly, “It hurts~~”

Si Yiyan said, “I’ll massage you.”

He then moved his hand onto her abdomen.

His hands were so large that one hand of his was enough to cover half of her abdomen. The warmth and moisture of his palm made her bloated belly feel less terrible.

Si Yiyan asked, “Do you feel better?”

Wen Xinya expressed assent.
