After she finished crying, Zhou Ju’an asked, "What happened? Did Lu Beiyao kick you out because you brought him back so late at night?"
Li ngru couldn’t utter a single word. He was calling her sister’s na while holding her arm, which was even more painful than being kicked out.
After a long while, she finally said, "You were right, Lu Beiyao does like Sisi."
She looked up at Zhou Ju’an, who already seed to know this. Li ngru continued, "Sisi also likes Lu Beiyao, she lied to ."
Zhou Ju’an glanced at her and let out a light laugh.
"Why can you still laugh? Sisi has fallen for another man!"
"Don’t take it out on ." Zhou Ju’an pulled her away from his embrace, "I know what kind of person Sisi is. A man like Lu Beiyao clinging to her might sway her, but she absolutely wouldn’t have anything with Lu Beiyao because she knows you like Lu Beiyao."
Li ngru laughed a few tis, feeling a mix of emotions, "Really? So on one hand she claims she doesn’t like Lu Beiyao, and on the other, she gives him her most treasured possession."
She handed that half piece of pendant to Zhou Ju’an, "You know very well how much Sisi treasures this item, even more than I do, yet she gave it to Lu Beiyao!"
She flung the half piece of pendant away, "Zhou Ju’an, tell , what does she have that I don’t? Why do you all like her?"
Zhou Ju’an looked down at her, "There are plenty who like you, but only a few who like her. So yeah...when soone suddenly likes her so much, how could she not be moved?"
"And what about you?" Li ngru looked up at him. Zhou Ju’an smiled lightly, turned around, and went into the woods to look for the half pendant she threw away.
Li ngru stood there clenching her fists for a mont, then turned and went back to her own room.
Another sleepless night; Li Siru struggled to get out of bed in the morning. As she trudged to breakfast, she found Lu Beiyao sitting there, thinking she was still half asleep.
Instinctively, she rubbed her eyes.
Why was he here? And wearing yesterday’s clothes?
"Lu Beiyao, this is the hangover dicine I specifically had the servant buy for you. Please take it first," Li ngru said with a smile as she handed it over. Lu Beiyao remained silent.
Waking up at the Li Family surprised him greatly, so last night, when he dread of Li Siru in his room, it wasn’t a dream?
He looked up at her, and Li Siru quickly lowered her head, sitting beside Zhou Ju’an, who had already placed breakfast in front of her, "Have you not been sleeping well these days? Your dark circles are so pronounced."
"Really? Are they?" Li Siru rubbed her eyes, "My sleep has been quite good!"
Mr. Li ignored them and asked Lu Beiyao, "Beiyao, after the hangover dicine, have so porridge to warm your stomach."
Lu Beiyao nodded, "I ca over again without a word, I’m being presumptuous."
"Not at all, our Li Family always welcos you!" Mr. Li said with a warm smile.
Li Siru chatted with Zhou Ju’an throughout, pretending not to see the others. Lu Beiyao’s gaze occasionally shot towards her, and she felt a chill down her back.
Mr. Li suddenly asked, "Beiyao, I wonder if Sisi has caused you any trouble. You look up to her enough to let her work with you, but please don’t let her do as she pleases."
Being ntioned, Li Siru finally looked over, only to hear Lu Beiyao saying calmly, "She’s doing very well. In fact, I worry that if she goes abroad, who could I find to replace her!"
