Perhaps influenced by Wen Yan's inner thoughts, Si Jingyi now found everything about Song Fei'er off.
It was maddening!
He had promised not to believe that viperous woman's words, yet he was still affected.
Fine. He would go check the vineyard later. If the documents she mentioned weren't there, he would definitely make his older brother divorce her once he got back!
Seeing Si Jingyi's handsome face darken, Song Fei'er's heart sank with a thud.
"Brother Yi, what's wrong?"
Had he discovered something?
Si Jingyi patted Song Fei'er's head. "It's nothing. I just really dislike my sister-in-law. Since she married into our family, she's turned the whole place upside down!"
Song Fei'er secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
So it was just that he disliked that good-for-nothing Wen Yan!
Last time she went to the Si family, she stole a few pieces of jewelry belonging to Si Jingyi's mother. She could just frame Wen Yan for it later.
The Wen family didn't like Wen Yan, finding her an embarrassment. She had no support from her natal family. After marrying into the Si family, everyone there disliked her too.
Besides, she had stolen Si Moyan's confidential documents before. Even if she was framed, no one would suspect a thing.
A sinister smile curled at the corner of Song Fei'er's lips.
Si Jingyi looked down and happened to catch that very smile.
He couldn't help but shiver.
He had never seen Fei'er smile like that before.
Suddenly, she felt like a stranger to him.
"Brother Yi, don't you love the meals and snacks I make? If only we could live together. That way, I could see you first thing every morning, and when you come home from work at night, I could make you delicious food. Just thinking about it makes me so happy!"
Seeing the admiration and adoration in Song Fei'er's eyes, Si Jingyi felt momentarily dazed.
He was a director; naturally, he could tell the difference between acting and genuine feeling.
He had always believed Fei'er's feelings for him were sincere.
If she was acting, then her performance truly deserved an award!
"Fei'er, don't worry. If we were to live together, I would never let you suffer any grievances. I have to go on a business trip to the neighboring city later. When I get back, I'll discuss our matter with my grandfather and my older brother."
Song Fei'er bit the inside of her cheek, so hard she tasted blood in her mouth.
Si Jingyi was such a lovesick fool. He used to listen to everything she said.
She had practically spelled it out today. Logically, he should have just given her that villa.
What was wrong with him?
"Fei'er, rest well. I should get going."
After Si Jingyi left, Song Fei'er got out of bed, walked to the window, and watched his sports car disappear from view.
She punched the wall.
Where exactly had things gone wrong?
Just then, Song Fei'er's phone rang.
It was Xiao Chen, Si Jingyi's best friend, calling.
...
Si Jingyi drove his sports car around the city for a while.
It felt like two voices were tearing him apart inside.
One urged him to go to the vineyard and investigate, the other told him to trust Song Fei'er and not be swayed by Wen Yan's provocation.
If Song Fei'er was really as Wen Yan said—a transgender person who was only with him for his money—he would...
Just the thought made his heart ache.
Let alone confirming it!
After much hesitation, Si Jingyi still turned his car around and drove back.
He deliberately went around Song Fei'er's house so she wouldn't see his car.
The Song family vineyard was a few hundred meters from their house. Si Jingyi parked his car in an inconspicuous spot.
On the way, he had bought a shovel.
He found the grave, looked at the surrounding soil and weeds, and pinpointed the location.
He started digging hard.
He hadn't dug for long when his shovel hit something hard.
It was a rusty iron box.
Si Jingyi broke the lock and opened the lid.
Inside were many photos and documents.
He looked through them one by one, his heart sinking continuously.
Until it hit rock bottom, shattered into pieces.
Devastated, he slumped to the ground, his handsome face pale, his hands clenched into fists, pounding the earth several times.
Song Fei'er really was transgender, just as Wen Yan had said!
Every word she ever said to him was probably a lie!
And he called himself a director! Having such a skilled actress by his side, and he hadn't seen through it!
Si Jingyi felt both furious and ashamed. His heart felt as if it were being torn apart, bleeding and aching.
He was such an idiot!
Si Jingyi put the iron box in his car and drove back towards the Song house.
But he didn't drive right up to the courtyard. When he was still several dozen meters away, he went on foot.
A black Audi was parked in the Song family courtyard.
Si Jingyi narrowed his peach-blossom eyes. That was the car of his best friend, Xiao Chen!
Si Jingyi rushed in a few quick strides to the window of Song Fei'er's bedroom.
Peering through a crack in the window, he looked inside.
Song Fei'er was nestled in Xiao Chen's arms, looking delicate and on the verge of tears. "Brother Chen, I don't know what went wrong. I hinted so obviously, but that lovesick fool Si Jingyi actually didn't give me his villa!"
Si Jingyi stared at the adulterous couple, his eyes blazing red.
Good, just great!
They really did get together behind his back!
Xiao Chen acted like a bootlicker around him, fawning and saying he treated him like a real brother.
So this was how he repaid him—by cuckolding him!
With Si Jingyi's fiery temper, he really wanted to charge in and beat them up.
But if he did, they might even call the police and sue him for assault!
He remembered that Xiao Chen had recently been secretly dating a sharp-tongued, fierce rich heiress.
Eyes still red, Si Jingyi secretly recorded a short video.
When a lovesick fool is in love, he can be utterly without principles or a bottom line.
But once he's clear-headed, he becomes more rational and calm than anyone else.
If Song Fei'er hadn't been transgender, Si Jingyi might not have severed his feelings so quickly.
Just thinking that he had actually dated a transgender person made him want to vomit up the acid in his stomach!
Si Jingyi sped away in his sports car.
Just before reaching the city, his car suddenly broke down.
Si Jingyi called a tow truck from the dealership and wandered down the road in a daze.
After all, it was a relationship he had poured his heart into. He never imagined it was all just a terrible scam.
If he hadn't been able to hear Wen Yan's inner thoughts, he would surely have been treated like a dog by Xiao Chen and Song Fei'er for their amusement, then sent to Africa to dig coal, only to die miserably in a foreign land!
Distracted, Si Jingyi crossed the street. Suddenly, a sports car came speeding. Despite slamming on the brakes, it still knocked Si Jingyi to the ground.
Si Jingyi's forehead was scraped, blood instantly welling up.
Si Jingyi suddenly remembered Wen Yan's words that he would suffer a bloody disaster today.
That had come true too!
Damn!
What kind of person was Wen Yan?
She was practically psychic!
From now on, he would never dare look down on her or give her attitude again!
No, most importantly, he would never let his older brother divorce her.
From now on, she was his goddess! His one and only sister-in-law!
"If I'd known it was you, I would have just run you over with my sports car!"
A slender, elegant figure stepped out of the sports car.
