I failed again

Si Heng looked at Lin Ze with an eager look in his eyes, as if he really wanted to give it a try.

Forget it, let’s not try it. I can’t handle it if this guy goes crazy.

Lin Ze avoided Si Heng's gaze and looked out the window, with a myriad of thoughts in his mind.

Si Heng looked at his hand that was held by Lin Ze, and moved cautiously, preparing to pull it out.

Unexpectedly, as soon as he moved, Lin Ze subconsciously tightened his hand.

Si Heng: ...

Okay, you are the boss, hold it if you want!

In the days that followed, Si Heng discovered that Lin Ze had become a little strange. Not only did he spend longer periods of time in the manor, he also often ran into the room where he practiced the piano, sat next to him and listened to him play.

He would chat with me from time to time for no apparent reason.

At first Si Heng could still comfort himself that Lin Ze was just having intermittent fits, and once he started fighting with his second uncle, he would no longer care about himself.

But he waited and waited, until Lin Ze's second uncle stepped down and Lin Ze completely controlled the Lin family, but he didn't see Lin Ze leave. Instead, he stayed with him even longer.

Si Heng expressed his incomprehension. Shouldn't Lin Ze go accompany his Xia Youyan? Why is he staying here with him? !

Could it be that what I said that day aroused Lin Ze's guilt, so he has been staying by my side these days, intending to be nicer to me?

No need for that, brother. If you really feel guilty, just divorce me and give me back my freedom, or give me more compensation when you divorce. There's really no need to stay here every day to make your presence felt!

Si Heng looked at Lin Ze who came to listen to him playing the piano again, and his heart was full of resentment. Damn, he really wanted to collect the performance fees from Lin Ze for these days!

I have nothing to do every day, why do I always come to him?

Lin Ze felt something was wrong while listening to Si Heng's piano playing. The tune, which was supposed to be a gentle one, was played by Si Heng in a way that made it up and down like surging waves.

Lin Ze looked at Si Heng with some confusion. Is this the song he adapted?

Lin Ze respected this.

After Si Heng vented his anger, he was speechless when he saw Lin Ze still sitting beside him. No, brother, how long are you going to sit here?

If you don't bother me, I'll be bothered!

Don't you know that your presence here every day has seriously affected my mood? Can you be a little more self-aware?

Si Heng looked at Lin Ze with resentment in his heart, and said as calmly as he could, "Why do I feel like you've been staying here longer and longer recently?" You've been staying here for too long, so hurry up and leave, big brother!

"I'm not very busy recently, so I can stay here for a while longer." Lin Ze replied.

Si Heng silently complained in his heart, who asked you to stay here longer? You didn’t understand what I meant at all.

Si Heng asked tentatively, "Have all the Lin family's affairs been resolved?"

Lin Ze nodded and said, "It's all resolved. I was just planning to tell you that I'm going to take you back to the old house in a few days and let your second uncle apologize to you in person."

Apologize in person? That's it? What about the other mastermind?

Si Heng took a deep breath and decided not to think too much. Would Lin Ze be willing to let Xia Youyan apologize to him?

I'm afraid that letting his second uncle come to apologize is already Lin Ze's biggest concession, although, there is a great possibility that Second Uncle Lin is Lin Ze's mortal enemy.

Si Heng hummed softly, and did not continue the topic. Instead, he said, "When we got married, we signed an agreement that we would divorce after you took control of the Lin family and stabilized your elders. Now, your second uncle has stepped down, and you have completely taken control of the Lin family. When should we go to the Civil Affairs Bureau?"

Lin Ze was stunned. He never expected that Si Heng would suddenly bring up this topic that he had been avoiding.

At the beginning, he did agree with Si Heng in this way, and he also once looked forward to the scene of marrying Xia Youyan.

However, since he learned that Xia Youyan had been slandering Si Heng, he sent people to investigate Xia Youyan thoroughly and found out things that he didn't know before.

It was then that I understood why Bai Ci and the others always had indescribable expressions when Xia Youyan and I were together.

It is indeed my own fault that I was blind and was played like a fool by others for so many years.

Deeply shocked, he walked to the door of Si Heng's room in a daze, listening to the sound of the piano coming from inside.

The piano music was like a trickle of water, gently caressing his heartstrings, making his mood slowly become calm and peaceful.

After that, he became more and more fond of going to the piano room to listen to Si Heng playing the piano.

Watching Si Heng concentrating on playing the piano, the dreamy melody pulled him into Si Heng's musical world.

As the affairs of the Lin family gradually came to an end, he spent more and more time with Si Heng, and became more and more aware of the feelings that he had always ignored.

Perhaps he didn't have no feelings for Si Heng as he thought, but these feelings were buried too deeply because of Xia Youyan's existence, and he only discovered them now.

Originally, today, he planned to go to the group to finish his work before coming to see Si Heng, but a word from his assistant woke him up from his dream.

In the morning, while eating breakfast, Lin Ze looked at his assistant who had hesitated several times and said, "Just say what you want to say. When did you become so slow?"

The assistant nodded repeatedly and said, "I just want to ask you, sir. The prenuptial agreement between you and Mr. Si stated that you would divorce Mr. Si after you had dealt with the Lin family's affairs. Now that the Lin family's affairs have been almost dealt with, when do you plan to..."

The assistant's voice became quieter and quieter. "We can also help you prepare the divorce agreement in advance."

The assistant felt very regretful. Why did he agree to let Young Master Bai talk to the gentleman about this matter?

Others may not know the reason why Lin Ze wanted to divorce Si Heng in the first place, but could he not know?

In the past few days, he has handled a lot of documents related to Xia Youyan and learned a lot of things. He also saw with his own eyes that Mr. Xia is staying in Mr. Si's piano room for longer and longer periods of time, and he can probably guess some of Mr. Lin's thoughts.

I also know in my heart that Mr. Lin probably doesn't want to divorce Mr. Si.

As for Mr. Si, he probably doesn't want to get divorced either, right?

After all, Mr. Si seems to like Mr. very much.

The assistant recalled the foolish things that Mr. Si had done to him after being deceived by Xia Youyan. Mr. Si accepted it all without any complaints. He must be deeply in love with Mr. Si, right?

Otherwise, I wouldn't have covered up for the gentleman in front of the elders of the Lin family so many times.

Now, Mr. Si has come to his senses and finally realized his mistake. It can be said that he has finally reaped the rewards of his hard work.

Thinking of this, the assistant breathed a sigh of relief. Compared to Xia Youyan, he still liked Mr. Si more. After all, Si Heng was polite and cultured. Every time he asked him to do something, he was polite. Unlike Xia Youyan, he was condescending, responded slowly, and insulted him. He also complained to Mr. Si and asked him to deduct his bonus.

After this comparison, the assistant liked Si Heng more and more.

He prayed silently in his heart that his husband would not suddenly have a tantrum and divorce Mr. Si to marry Xia Youyan. He would cry to death in front of his husband.

Lin Ze was silent for a long time before he said to his assistant, "Don't worry about this for now."

He doesn't want to get divorced now, but he doesn't know Si Heng's attitude.

If Si Heng doesn't want a divorce, but I put the divorce agreement in front of him, wouldn't that hurt his feelings?

Another reason is that Lin Ze could always feel Si Heng's distant attitude towards him these days. No matter how well Si Heng concealed it, he still discovered Si Heng's impatience with him.

Lin Ze didn't dare to think too much about it. He attributed all this to the fact that he had been running to Si Heng all the time these days, disturbing Si Heng and making Si Heng feel upset.

Although he thought so, Lin Ze couldn't stop the panic in his heart. He originally wanted to go to work in the group, but he involuntarily changed direction and walked towards Si Heng's piano room.

He thought that he would be able to calm down today with Si Heng like he did in the past, but he didn't expect that Si Heng had adapted the music today. The music that used to calm him down made him more irritable the more he listened to it today.

Before she could calm down, she heard Si Heng bringing up the issue of divorce, which she least wanted to talk about.

This made Lin Ze's already bad mood even worse.
