Chapter Seventeen

"I don't really want to threaten you, Xiao Xixi," Situ Leiyan said in a weaker tone, "This will really be good for you. I just want you to recall it." There is no point in using soft and hard tactics. As long as she agrees to return to the mainland,

Then... give it to him later.

Seeing his aggressive attitude, Xiao Xixi was stunned for a moment. She bit her lips and thought deeply. If she had to make a decision now, she still felt it was too hasty.

"I'm already making arrangements, you can figure it out yourself." With these words, Situ Leiyan understood her hesitation and didn't want to say any more.

What he has always decided will not change, especially if it is such an important thing now. Even if Xiao Xixi refuses again, he still has to go back.

Putting down the prosperous industries in the United States was just for her. After all, without her, all so-called "success" is meaningless to him.

"...Yeah." Xiao Xixi nodded. She knew that he was just giving herself time to accept it.

"By the way, I was having dinner with my parents in the evening. They missed the children again," Situ Leiyan relaxed a little and changed the topic, "Before I leave, I'd better get along with them. After all, I won't be able to see them for a while.

As you get older, you will like children more."

Fortunately, she is a girl they recognize.

If it weren't for Xiao Xixi, whose mother An Lin had always believed in the issue of fate, I'm afraid that when he made the decision to leave Gu Ruolan overnight, he would have definitely encountered opposition from his father Situ Yu.

"What? - Evening?" Xiao Xixi retracted her wandering thoughts, with a look of surprise on her face, "You, why do you always throw me so many questions so hastily? Let's have dinner together in the evening, you... why didn't you tell me earlier?

?!"

Since the last bad banquet, she had never seen the two wealthy nobles again.

Situ Leiyan's eyes were half asleep, "Is there anything I need to say earlier? I'm just having a casual meal with my parents. You won't... be nervous about your future parents-in-law, right?!" After saying that, he looked at it amusingly.

Xiao Xixi's reaction.

It was really interesting to see her embarrassment. Every subtle change in her eyes or lips could slowly arouse his interest.

"I don't!" Xiao Xixi sighed and shook her head to express her disapproval.

"You have." Situ Leiyan didn't think much and still stared at her playfully.

"I...really didn't." Xiao Xixi was a little speechless and felt a little sad in her heart. By saying this, did he mean that he was a candidate for his wife?

To him, teasing himself deliberately like this seemed to be something he hoped he would care about. However, it would be nice if he didn't think this way because he was being sentimental.

Approaching Xiao Xixi, Situ Leiyan's hand suddenly raised, fell on her head, and caressed her a few times, "Don't be nervous, I will take you to get along well with them, and they will also like you."

This tone suddenly changed from the usual coldness just now, and was full of tenderness.

Xiao Xixi could see that his eyes contained no impurities. It was undeniable that this kind of eyes did make her feel at ease and warm.

Unknowingly, she nodded.

Situ Leiyan raised his eyebrows, his thin lips slightly upward, and Xiao Xixi finally agreed naturally. Subconsciously, he had always hoped that she could get along with her parents. The beginning was good, but now that she has lost her memory, he hopes she can be under his eyes.

Watch and take every step until you enter the sacred hall.

"If we go back to the mainland," Xiao Xixi suddenly mentioned the topic just now, "the children may not be able to adapt." These words sounded like a conversation between a young couple.

However, Situ Leiyan suddenly felt extremely happy in his heart and could not hide the joy on his face: "No, don't worry, I have considered all these and will arrange them. If there is any problem, we will come back immediately, how about it?"

Her sudden wavering attitude made him a little ecstatic.

"...I," Xiao Xixi stared at his expression and saw such a big reaction, couldn't help but return to worry, "I'd better think about it."

The more unstable he is, the more worried she becomes.

"Okay, no problem." Situ Leiyan nodded immediately without thinking.

****The next day, in the pub.

Amidst the bustling lights and feasting, a certain private room was quiet and the atmosphere was very relaxed. A stack of draft beer was placed on the table, and several tall and straight bodies beside the table sank into the large sofa.

"Yan, let's put it this way," a familiar voice sounded, with a bit of joy, "——The progress is so rapid, it's not in vain that we have been waiting so hard for several years."

Situ Leiyan nodded, picked up the wine bottle in his hand and touched it lightly: "Yes, fortunately, I have enough things in my hand. Otherwise, it is really hard to know how some things will go. Ye, you are a good boy."

Looking at Xifu Yangye's usual playful smile, Situ Leiyan glanced at him with a disdainful look.

"Only Ye?" Keya deliberately expressed his dissatisfaction. The wine bottle was placed on the table, and there was a muffled sound from the bottom of the bottle. "It seems that from now on - you will hang out with Ye, and I will be superfluous."

"Keya, when did you learn Ye's tricks and take credit?" Situ Leiyan said with a slight smile, glancing at Keya's suppressed smile, and thinking in his mind.

Keya raised the bottle again, touched it with Situ Leiyan, and said with understanding: "Finally, we have settled a few things. It would be best if we could solve it with Qi Zhiming. However, the future is long. Yan, you still need to be wary of that.

Old man."

When it comes to Qi Zhiming, there is quite a feeling of being burned by wildfire.

"I know, don't worry." Situ Leiyan's eyes became cold. If he didn't have something concrete in his hands, he would never have thought that Gu Ruolan would communicate with him and keep her by his side for so many times.

Years later, I dug a huge hole for myself.

Little by little, he was jumping in. The victim was none other than Xiao Xixi. In fact, his two children were almost killed.

Thinking of this, he felt that all the bones in his body were so hard that they could break rocks.

"What are you thinking about?" Keya asked, looking at the absent-minded Situ Leiyan.

"He?!" Xifu Yangye answered, "——I'm not thinking about his little secretary, you guys had a good time back home!" After saying that, he laughed exaggeratedly.

Hearing this, Keya turned his head and pondered for a moment.

"We'll go back in a while. She keeps losing her memory, so there's nothing we can do about it." Situ Leiyan's tone became calmer, and there seemed to be a hint of pain at the corner of his mouth. It was obvious that his thoughts were still entirely focused on Xiao Xixi.

Everything is just for her.

From the moment he thought he would see her again in Los Angeles, his heart fell completely on her. In this life, he will never shift again.
