Wen Xinya slowly put down the phone. Her pupils were dim with traces of malevolence. A chilly calm was cast over that delicate face, adding to her elegant features a measure of aloofness, cruelty and harsh beauty.
Her fingers brushed lightly across the mobile phone in her hand, as gentle as the petals of a flower. Her lovely lips curved slightly, bringing with it an exquisite sense of wonder.
The people who hurt her Grampy. She would never let a single one of them off.
Xia Ruya getting disfigured from the car crash, living a life worse than death.
Ning Shuqian, are you ready for me?
“Who called you?” Si Yiyan enveloped her in his arms. Her soft body emitted a faint fragrance, gradually arousing him.
Since understanding Xinya’s rebirth and seeing that cotton purse, his desire for Xinya had grown increasingly strong and was nearly at uncontrollable levels.
Alone in desolation, fated to a lonely life!
Actually, he more or less guessed that the Si Yiyan of the previous life—having missed out on the one and only chance for his heart to be moved—had spent the rest of his life lonely and isolated, moving along like a zombie until the end. Even at the moment of death then, he had never experienced such a gut-wrenching and extreme bliss as he did now.
“The detective agency.” Wen Xinya leaned into his arms. After being with Si Yiyan for so long, there was no way he could keep his bodily reactions from her.
She had told Si Yiyan about the turning point of her rebirth and he had also guessed the truth. It was just that they had tacitly agreed never to bring up that matter. She had indeed been wretched beyond belief during her previous lifetime. But she didn’t need Si Yiyan to show her any pity. She had her pride and Si Yiyan understood that.
“Have you made the necessary arrangements to deal with Ning Shuqian?” Si Yiyan knew that Wen Xinya held a trump card against Ning Shuqian. She had yet to use it all this while as she was just waiting for the right opportunity to do so.
Now that Wen Haowen had some suspicions about Ning Shuqian and had even raised his guard against her, their relationship was no longer too strong to break. The prime time to deal with Ning Shuqian had arrived.
Wen Xinya smiled coldly. “Mmm, I will definitely make Ning Shuqian’s life a living hell. She will regret not learning her lesson the previous time.”
Ning Yuya had gone missing and that was only the beginning. If Ning Shuqian really thought that her daughter had been kidnapped, then she would be making a huge mistake. Wen Xinya did not resort to such petty tricks. When she played, she went big.
Si Yiyan held her waist as his slender fingers strummed the middle of her abdomen like a guitar, teasing and seductive.
The slow, gentle rhythm thumped against her heart, making Wen Xinya’s body go weak. “I am quite tired!”
In the past few days, Si Yiyan behaved like a “sex addict” with an insatiable appetite for her. On the other hand, she acutely realized that the rebirth had a huge effect on Si Yiyan. Turning around in the dead of the night to find the person beside was no longer there. The sheets on the other side of the bed had long gone cold.
Seeking out his silhouette, she would enter his study to see a calligraphy writing on a bookcase: “Alone in desolation, fated to a lonely life!”
The penmanship was fierce and swift, nearly penetrating the paper!
The strokes thick and solid, inciting awe and terror!
And beside it, using the same type of calligraphy, were the words: “Through thick and thin, until death does them apart.”
The penmanship was refined and graceful, looking completely effortless!
The strokes were classic and elegant, stylish and exquisite!
The same calligraphy but displaying two such wildly different styles and vastly different destinies!
She thought about it. She had happened to hear Si Yiyan mention before that when he was young, they invited a fortune-teller to tell his fortunes. Looking at those two calligraphies, she vaguely understood the meaning represented by these two very different destinies.
Her heart ached for Si Yiyan with an unmentionable pain!
These few days, she had let Si Yiyan do whatever he wanted, never raising any resistance.
Si Yiyan drew back his finger and sighed softly. “I won’t touch you tonight.”
Xinya didn’t have Si Yiyan in her previous life.
But in this life, Xinya completely belonged to him. They still had a long life together ahead of them. There was no need for him to rush their love so desperately.
Wen Xinya kissed Si Yiyan gently on the corner of his lip. “Yan, in this life, we will go through thick and thin together, until death does us apart!”
This was Si Yiyan’s destiny for this life!
The light in Si Yiyan’s eyes wavered. He held her shoulders. “Gu Yuexi is back. Do you wish to meet him?”
He remembered that Xinya had been rather curious about Gu Yuexi and always wished to meet him. But for the past few years, Gu Yuexi was constantly running between Russia and Italy and they didn’t have a chance to meet.
As expected, Wen Xinya’s eyes brightened with excitement written clearly across her face. “I have always wished to meet him as you regard him so highly. Just what kind of great master would have Yueze and gang avoiding him like a venomous viper!”
Si Yiyan owed a large part of his present-day status and power to Gu Yuexi. Whenever Si Yiyan mentioned Gu Yuexi, he didn’t speak like they were of a superior-subordinate relationship, but more like they were longtime friends.
She was more aware than anyone else in the world how arrogant Si Yiyan was. Having been with him for so many years, she had never known him to have many friends. Si Yiyan embodied the phrase “it’s lonely at the top” perfectly.
So, she had always wanted to know just who this Gu Yuexi was to be viewed as a friend by Si Yiyan.
Si Yiyan covered her eyes and said in a low voice, “Displaying such keen interest in another man in front of your boyfriend-cum-fiancée-cum-future husband—aren’t you worried I will be jealous?”
At the mention of Gu Yuexi, her limpid eyes—which sparkled like the brightest star in the sky—lit up almost blindingly. He couldn’t help feeling somewhat jealous at that.
Wen Xinya reached up to pull down his large hand and glared at him. “I am just curious, don’t be so petty!”
If he could be jealous even of his good friend, then Wen Xinya really had nothing left to say.
“You should not be curious about any other men apart from me.” Si Yiyan demanded in an overbearing manner.
Most romances start from curiosity. Although Xinya was not the type to shift her affections just because of a sense of curiosity, he did not want Xinya paying too much attention to other men.
“Overbearing!” Wen Xinya pouted unhappily as she glared at him.
She might be curious about Gu Yuexi, but it was only because of his relationship with Si Yiyan.
“Don’t look at me like that, otherwise I will change my mind and ravish you right now.” Si Yiyan gazed meaningfully at her. She probably didn’t realize just how alluring she was with her eyes wide and blazing with anger.
Wen Xinya was utterly speechless. Could they still enjoy their fooling around even after reaching such shameless depths?
