Mr. Satan, let's meet tonight!

However, the shock was short-lived.

Shang Xi took these words as just a test from the man, and the unnatural smile on her face vanished in an instant.

She raised her eyes, looking calmly at the person in front of her, and said, word by word, "Mr. Si, I am your lover, and I can do anything for you in this capacity, but there is one thing I do not want to do: be a pawn."

“From the day the contract was established, I was very clear about my own identity. I never thought of fighting for the position of the young mistress of the Si family. After all... who would want to have a marriage without love?”

"No matter what, I will leave when the year is up, and I will not cause Mr. Si any trouble or anything else."

Si Tingye maintained a calm and indifferent expression.

But when he heard the words "will leave in a year", his brow furrowed involuntarily.

I felt a bit annoyed.

A cold glint flashed in his eyes behind his glasses. He stared at her for a few seconds before releasing her hand. "There's no need to choose a suit that's the same color as the one you're wearing to the office."

Shang Xi blinked and followed the man's gaze to the other side.

7 p.m., the revolving restaurant on the top floor of the Imperial Capital Hotel.

The place had been booked by the Mu Group, and apart from a few waiters, there were only a dozen or so bodyguards dressed in all black.

Mu Pianran sat in her seat, but her gaze was fixed on the handsome man opposite her.

Ha, how ironic.

A full seven hours.

After leaving the West Suburbs Manor, Zuo Ye took her to this place in a car by himself.

I didn't know where they went during that time, until I saw the two of them walking in hand in hand five minutes ago.

After everyone was seated, the atmosphere around the dining table became quite awkward.

Mu Sichen, who had been missing for more than half a month to recuperate, sat sideways in his chair, his flirtatious gaze constantly sweeping over Shang Xi and Si Tingye.

Half a minute later, he finally broke the strange silence.

"Tsk, you two are starting to look quite like a harmonious couple now, even your clothes... are matching outfits?"

White suit, white dress.

Such a glaring color, anyone who didn't know better would think they were a newlywed couple.

Mu Pianran almost couldn't hold back her smile when she heard those words.

She playfully punched the person next to her, pretending not to care, and reminded him, "Brother, you're joking again. Miss Night Monk just happened to be wearing the same color."

Mu's father and mother exchanged a glance, realizing that their children's attitude was clearly a bit off.

As the host for the day, Father Mu had no choice but to raise his wine glass and smile. "Come on, Tingye is a very busy man. It's rare for him to have time to have dinner with us today. Why don't we all have a drink first?"

The Mu family members are naturally united.

Almost at the same time that Mu's father finished speaking, the other three also raised their glasses.

however……

Si Tingye twirled his wine glass with one hand, his deep eyes fixed on the constantly swirling red wine.

He spoke in a low, deep voice, "Chairman Mu went to great lengths to cancel tonight's cocktail party; it can't be just a simple dinner, can it?"

"..."

"Just say what's wrong. Shangxi isn't feeling well today, so we should go home and rest early."

Shang Xi raised an eyebrow slightly and turned her head to look at the man beside her.

For a moment, I couldn't help but be dazzled by his outfit today.

She was stunned for a moment, and chuckled to herself: Look, how unfair fate is, as if all the best conditions in the world have been given to this man.
