The person looked like he had a big smile on his face, and his eyes were also smiling as he looked at Ye Zichen. It seemed like Ye Zichen was very familiar with him.

Shen Xiran looked at him curiously.

However, Si Lianye's expression was extremely cold. With an indifferent nod of her head, she turned around and walked in.

She didn't know why Si Lianye was so cold to his family. She wanted to greet him but didn't know what to say.

When the man saw her actions, he was stunned for a moment before a faint smile appeared on his face.

Si Lianye brought her inside, and as they walked, she said to her, "There is no need to be so courteous towards the servants here."

However, she had a different opinion. "It won't be difficult to greet him."

He looked at her and said nothing more.

That was the kindness in her heart, and he himself, after all he had experienced, had long since lost any feelings for them.

Although the Si Family was very big, it was still a little smaller than the Old Master Xu. At least, they had entered the house and not sat in the carriage again.

However, this allowed them to walk for about ten minutes.

After entering the house, she felt a soft sound of music blowing over her head. With a glance, she saw that the person in front of her was elegantly dressed, looking extremely eye-catching.

However, she didn't feel it at all. The upper class was just like that. On the surface, it looked bright and beautiful, but many people in the private world were in dire straits. They could do whatever they wanted.

This knowledge had been known since she was very young.

Si Lianye also thought about it more or less, upon seeing the people who eagerly came up to greet him, she nodded lightly, and only upon seeing those who were extremely familiar with him did she stop to talk.

Everything was done in an orderly manner, but Shen Xiran found it strange.

She clearly didn't know many people, but why were they greeting her so warmly?

She swore that she had never seen many of them before, and this time they all acted as if they were old friends.

How strange.

She casually dealt with them, and when she saw them try to draw the topic towards Si Lianye one by one without saying much, she finally realised it. She thought that her charm was so great, but in the end, she thought that they had ulterior motives.

Thinking about that, she also became impatient, she wanted to send everyone away, but in the end, Si Lianye acted first.

He parted the crowd, and as he pulled her out, he said to the crowd, "I'm sorry, we still have matters to attend to. I'll be taking my leave first."

Everyone smiled and nodded, expressing their understanding.

When he pulled her out, she asked, "Where are you taking me?"

He looked at her and said, "Meet my mother."

Her heart immediately rose to her throat.

"Don't worry, I won't make things difficult for you. This time, just a few words will do." He pointed at her and said, "Don't say anything. Leave the rest to me."

You can do this? She looked at him suspiciously. Didn't his mother get angry?

He nodded solemnly at her, "Don't worry, I'll take care of everything."

She relaxed a little and gripped his hand tightly. "Okay."

She followed him confidently.

There, Imperial Mother was talking to a woman around her age. The two of them looked relaxed, and there was even a trace of a smile on Imperial Mother's face.

She looked around and saw no one she knew. She thought to herself that this woman must be some kind of friend.

Si Lianye brought her to stand in front of Imperial Mother, and said in a deep voice: "Mom."

Only then did Imperial Mother turn her head to look at him. A look of happiness flashed past her eyes, but her mouth coldly snorted as she said: "You're finally willing to come back?"

Si Lianye's expression did not change for a moment as she pulled Shen Xiran who was beside him: "Mom, this is Shen Xiran."

The Imperial Mother did not just give her a glance. She immediately felt her gaze turn fierce and could not help but feel a little fearful, but when she thought about what he had said to her previously, her courage increased once again. Not only did she not retreat, she even smiled at her.

Although he said that he wouldn't speak to her, but at least she could greet him, right?

These words caused Imperial Mother to look at her again, but there was still no kindness in her eyes. "So it's you, I thought you wouldn't come back, I didn't expect to meet you again."

What did she mean by that? Did she just ridicule him for not speaking properly?

She took a deep breath and slowly said to her, "That's right, it was fortunate that A Ye was here."

Imperial Mother's eyes flashed with light. She could see clearly that it was killing intent.

Imperial Mother wanted to kill him.

When this realization entered her mind, she couldn't help but shrink back, only to discover that her hand had tightened.

He squeezed her hand to comfort her, then said to Imperial Mother: "That's right, last time she was being naughty and left, I spent a lot of time to find her and I won't let her leave again."

Imperial Mother squinted.

Shen Xiran suddenly realized that her and Si Lianye's expression were so similar at this moment. As expected of mother and son.

There was no mistake.

"That's good. You youngsters really have a lot of ideas. In the future, you can't do this, okay?" She looked at Shen Xiran and said casually.

It was as if what happened last time was truly Shen Xiran's fault alone.

She sneered in her heart as she lowered her head and promised, "Yes. No matter what happens in the future, I won't leave him."

No matter what, this phrase had already made her stand clear. In the future, no matter how angry Imperial Mother was, she would not retreat.

Imperial Mother naturally understood what she meant and the anger in her heart grew more and more intense.

Very good, it seems that she'll have to go against me in the future.

However, his son's expression was exceptionally resolute. Now, there were many outsiders who were unsuited to be angry. They could only coldly snort, "It's good that you understand."

He then ignored her and turned to Si Lianye, "This is a good friend of mine from the past, I just returned. Call me Auntie."

Si Lianye politely called out to the woman whose face was smeared with an unknown amount of powder, then lowered his head and pulled Shen Xiran's hand: "Come, let's go over there. I'll introduce you to a few people."

He actually didn't take his mother's words seriously at all.

She found it funny and did not dare look at Imperial Mother's face. She nodded and followed him.

Imperial Mother's face completely darkened, she slapped the table and shouted: "A Ye!"

He stopped walking and asked with surprise on his face, "Mom, what's wrong?"

Imperial Mother's chest rose and fell, looking extremely angry: "Do you even have the slightest courtesy to speak to your elders like this?"

He said, "Didn't I already say hello?"

Logically, it was true, but Imperial Mother had originally planned to not simply greet them.

Remembering her plan, she suppressed her anger and said in a low voice, "I haven't finished the introductions. Where are you going?"

"Oh." He frowned and turned around. "Then, who else is there?"

When he spoke, he wore a faint smile on his face and acted extremely politely, but Shen Xiran knew that his impatience had already reached its peak.

Imperial Mother probably knew this as well, but she chose to ignore him and pointed to a girl wearing a red dress beside her: "Come, this is your aunt's woman. She's only twenty-three years old today and just graduated from university.

Finished speaking, the girl lifted her eyes and looked at them, and then called out: "Eldest Brother Si."

Her eyes were very beautiful. Just this sweep of her eyes gave off a feeling of autumn water.

But Shen Xiran and Si Lianye frowned at the same time.

Shen Xiran only realized that this girl was the one who sent her to the airport last time.

At that time, she thought that she was someone similar to Imperial Mother's helper, but who would have thought that she was actually some kind of relationship's daughter?

Si Lianye also frowned, he realized that she looked familiar, but she couldn't find anything wrong. She searched her memories but didn't find anything wrong, so she threw her to the side and said, "Hello."

"Hello, I …" My name is Qiao Sitong, nice to meet you. " Her voice, like her eyes, had a touch of coolness that didn't quite match her sweet outsourcing.

Si Lianye said to her, "Me too, I hope you have a good time tonight." She looked at his mother and said, "Are you done?"

Imperial Mother's face darkened, "That's enough."

What else could she say? Did he have to get closer to Qiao Sitong?

That would be too disrespectful to the guests, and she could be sure that her son would not do it.

Therefore, no matter how unhappy she was, she could only remain silent. "Enough, all of you youngsters have an idea. We are old, so we can't care about all that. You guys can exchange ways to contact each other."

Si Lianye did not want to give it to him, but she felt that rejecting others like that would not give him face at all, and truly swapped social accounts with Qiao Sitong.

Shen Xiran watched on from the side, his heart a little sour.

Anyone could tell what Imperial Mother was planning, but she, Si Lianye's girlfriend, couldn't even say a single word. One could imagine the depression in her heart.

Now that he had come into contact with another woman, he was already unhappy. In the blink of an eye, he saw Imperial Mother look at him with contempt and disdain, and felt extremely uncomfortable.

She suddenly felt that although the space here was large, it gave her a feeling of being unable to breathe. She pulled on his sleeve and said, "I feel a little uncomfortable. I want to go out and take a look."

She had originally thought that after hearing what he said, he would say, "I'll go with you." However, after hearing what he said, he only looked at her in surprise and said, "Alright, outside is a small garden. You can go for a walk. Be careful."

She became even more depressed when she heard that, but she could not show it in front of the Imperial Mother. She could only smile and say: "Alright, I'll be going out first."

With that, he forced himself to calm down and left.

During the entire time she was leaving, she felt two pairs of eyes tightly glued onto her back. It was unknown if it was from Imperial Mother or that Qiao Sitong.

But now, she didn't have the mood to think about that. She only felt her chest being stuffed with a wave of frustration, anxious to find a place to vent.

She walked in a hurry and bumped into someone as she was walking out. She didn't even raise her head as she said, "I'm sorry." Then he turned and walked out.

The man looked at her back in surprise and rubbed his chin thoughtfully. "It actually looks pretty good. Come, let me know who this woman is."

"Yes sir!"

After Si Lianye saw that she had left, he retracted her gaze and met the cold gaze of the Imperial Mother in the blink of an eye. "Rest assured, nothing will happen to her while she is in our house."

After saying that, he then remembered that his son had chosen to stay behind because he had a good impression of Qiao Sitong. With a hint of happiness, he said, "Coming here, for you youngsters to get to know each other more, will you get to know each other in the future?"
