Somehow, Si Nian began to feel inexplicably irritated again and couldn't help but ridicule Jiang Sui.

"Hey, Jiang Sui, are you childish? Do you think one day can equal ten years?"

"able!"

Jiang Sui answered firmly.

Si Nian stopped talking, but his face was often gloomy.

But what Jiang Sui was thinking in his heart was that not only this day, but there would be many more days in the future that would make up for the ten years they missed, and replace that person’s place in his heart.

In the next half month, Jiang Sui went to Sinian's store very frequently, and sometimes he would insist on going to the bar with Sinian.

Although Si Nian's face darkened when he saw her, he did not use harsh words to drive her away.

She just pretended not to see it and stayed by his side whenever she had time.

In the bar, when Si Nian was busy, she would go and chat with the boss, Brother Jin.

Sometimes I would meet Wu Chunhao in the bar, and a few of us would sit in front of Si Nian’s bar, waiting for him to be free and occasionally chatting with him.

Si Nian answered everyone but ignored Jiang Sui.

Only when someone offered Jiang Sui a drink would he help her avoid trouble.

Jiang Sui would often wonder why Si Nian's attitude towards her was so hot and cold, so distant.

This feeling was especially obvious during the time when I took the initiative to approach him.

But Jiang Sui is a stubborn and unyielding person at heart. Now that she has a goal, she will focus on moving towards it and not care about anything else.

On this day, Jiang Sui was called in for a talk by Ms. Wu because he had been sticking to Si Nian a lot recently and had missed a lot of the project team's training courses. He was unable to go to the bar.

Wu Chunhao sat on a high stool with his legs crossed. He looked around the bar but didn't see Jiang Sui.

He couldn't help but ask Si Nian in surprise, "Where's your little follower? Did he go to see Brother Jin again?"

Si Nian was mixing drinks. Hearing this, he glanced at him and said, "He's not here!"

Wu Chunhao raised his eyebrows, "Rare!"

Jiang Sui didn't come today, but Si Nian's face didn't look very good either.

He mixed a drink and put it on a tray for the waiter to take away.

Then he began to wipe the wine that he had accidentally spilled on the bar.

Seeing that he looked absent-minded, Wu Chunhao took a sip of wine and made two "tsk tsk" sounds.

Si Nian glanced at him without stopping his hands.

"That girl didn't follow you until today, and you seemed to have lost your soul. Then why do you always give her a sour face?"

Si Nian ignored Wu Chunhao and continued to wipe the bar counter diligently.

Wu Chunhao was not annoyed by his attitude and continued to talk to him, "Honestly, Jiu, haven't you noticed that there's something wrong with this girl recently? She's been clinging to you so much!"

Now Si Nian stopped when he heard this, he straightened up and sighed softly.

"I know..."

Even Haozi and Jin Ge noticed it, how could he not have noticed?

Brother Jin just asked him about this and said that he was being a little cold-hearted by treating the little girl like this every day.

In fact, ever since Jiang Sui suddenly came over and stuck to him that day, he discovered that her feelings towards him seemed to have undergone a subtle change.

Even the way she looked at him was no longer as innocent as before.

But he couldn't say anything and could only become increasingly cold towards her, hoping that she would give up.

"Nine, since that girl has shown it so obviously now, you might as well stop worrying too much and just break this layer of window paper!"

Wu Chunhao couldn't bear to see Si Nian hiding his feelings in his heart and hesitating like this, which made the little girl confused and frustrated.

Si Nian's face looked a little bad. He closed his eyes, took a deep breath, then opened his eyes and looked at Wu Chunhao.

"Haozi, do you know? Si Yue has already started investigating her!"

In fact, before Si Nian and Jiang Sui met by chance in Tongli, during the period of cold war, Si Yue had condescended to run to the repair shop and mocked Si Nian again.

He also threatened that he would not let go of the slap Jiang Sui gave him that day, and he would definitely retaliate double.

Si Nian asked Si Yue to take revenge on himself, but Si Yue laughed at him like a madman.

He said, "Si Nian, what else do you have that is worthy of my revenge? If there is anything, it might be that stinky girl. Si Nian, the more you care about her and the more you want to protect her, the more I will destroy her. I will make you crawl at my feet forever and never be able to raise your head!"

Before leaving, Si Yue gave Si Nian a devilish smile, "Oh, that little girl's name is Jiang Sui, right? It looks like she has a close relationship with you!"

Thinking of this, Si Nian's heart could no longer be calm.

He thought that by keeping a distance between himself and Jiang Sui, he could protect her from being discovered by Si Yue.

But Si Yue still followed the clues and found Jiang Sui's information.

If they hadn't met by chance in the same village that time, he would have decided to take advantage of that quarrel to completely cut off ties with her.

As long as she no longer appears by his side, Si Yue probably won't be idle enough to really keep an eye on her and investigate thoroughly.

But after seeing her senior brother, he couldn't control himself and stood in front of Jiang Sui like a fighting cock, preventing the man from approaching her.

He found that he couldn't stand any member of the opposite sex approaching her with ulterior motives.

I couldn't help but gradually get closer to her, which led to this situation.

It's impossible to break it now! It's too late, and he can't bear to do it!

He himself didn't know what to do.

He only hated that he was filthy and had also stained her.

Si Nian's brows were tightly locked, and after dropping that bombshell, he didn't say another word.

Wu Chunhao was shocked. "Si Yuecha Jiang Sui? She has only been in Shenhai for more than two months, and you have been deliberately keeping a distance from her. How could you be noticed by this lunatic from the Si family?"

Si Nian sighed again and rubbed his swollen eyebrows.

Maybe this is fate. It would be fine if he was stuck in the quagmire, but now he is dragging Jiang Sui down with him. He feels worse than at any time in these years.

Seeing that Si Nian didn't answer, Wu Chunhao also sighed.

"Since it has come to this, it's useless for you to be angry with a little girl. We should fight against the enemy with our own army and block the water with our own earth! But the first priority is to protect the girl's safety. The madman from the Si family can really do anything when he gets crazy."

Wu Chunhao’s analysis was correct. The top priority now was Jiang Sui’s safety.

Although Si Yue is not bold enough to do anything to Jiang Sui in broad daylight, there is no guarantee that Jiang Sui will not be left alone.

"Hey, Wenjiu, this girl has been sticking to you for a while. If she wants to follow you, don't stop her. Just pick her up and drop her off the whole time. As for what's going on at school, let Xingzhou find a way to take care of her and observe for a while."

Si Nian did not agree with Wu Chunhao's suggestion, but he did not reject it outright.

He knew that there was no better way at the moment. He hoped that after he repeatedly reduced his presence, Si Yue would forget all about it and let Jiang Sui spend the year safely until he boarded the plane to go abroad.

After making up his mind, Si Nian took out his mobile phone and edited a WeChat message to Jiang Sui.

[Nian: Sui Sui, I thought about it today and I want to apologize for my bad attitude towards you during this period. If you want to spend more time with me, come over in your free time, but you must tell me in advance so that I can pick you up. Apart from coming to my place, try not to go out of the school alone, and don't hang around the campus too late at night. Go back to the dormitory and rest early.]

When Jiang Sui saw this WeChat message before going to bed, he sat up from the bed with excitement.

After seeing that her roommates had fallen asleep, she suppressed her excitement and lay back down.

But Jiang Sui only saw that Si Nian apologized to her and promised that she could visit him often, and did not pay much attention to the reminder behind this message.

The next morning, Jiang Sui was so excited that she couldn't sleep. She got up straight away and packed her things. She only had one class today, and after the class she could go find Si Nian.

But she didn't expect that Si Nian hadn't been notified to pick her up after class, and she had some emergencies on her side, so she could only leave after she had dealt with them.

By the time everything was done, it was already noon.

Jiang Sui sent a WeChat message to Si Nian, telling him that he could come pick her up.

But after sending the message, Jiang Sui waited for a long time but no one replied.

I don’t know if Si Nian is busy with business, so I simply stopped waiting.

So Jiang Sui took a taxi at the school gate to find Si Nian.

She had completely forgotten about Si Nian's instructions on WeChat last night.

When Jiang Sui arrived outside Sinian's store, the roller shutter door was half-closed.

There were two yellow-haired boys with weird clothes and looks standing outside the door. When they saw Jiang Sui coming, they stared at her like poisonous snakes.

One of the yellow-haired guys even whistled at Jiang Suiluo.

Jiang Sui felt his whole body numb. He frowned, looked at the other person, and quickly walked to the door.

She raised her hand and pushed the half-lowered rolling door upwards, and then the rolling door "clattered" back into the box above.

Jiang Sui opened the door and saw several men with fierce faces turning around and looking in his direction.

She had a bad feeling in her heart, thinking that Si Nian or Xiao Hai might have offended someone.

So Jiang Sui hurriedly searched for Si Nian among the crowd.

Finally, after avoiding several men at the door, Jiang Sui found Si Nian standing in front of the workbench. His face was full of surprise and worry, and he was looking at him.

Soon, Si Nian regained his calm expression and said to Jiang Sui, "I'm sorry, something happened in the store and we are closed now. I have urgent repair business, please go to another store!"

"Ah?" Jiang Sui didn't react for a moment. She stared at Si Nian for a while, and then she seemed to understand something.

"Oh, then I'll go somewhere else."

Jiang Sui was about to turn around and leave, but was stopped by a man who was closest to her and had a scar on his brow.

Then Scarbrow looked at the man in front of Si Nian who was wearing a big gold chain and asked, "Brother Quan, can she leave?"

The big gold chain frowned and looked at Jiang Sui for a while, then said, "Let her wait a moment!"

Hearing the conversation between the two, Si Nian's voice began to sound a little anxious.

"No! Let her go! Don't scare the customers in my store!"

The big gold chain chuckled and turned to look at Si Nian, "You are quite kind to women!"

"Wu Zi!" The man with the big gold chain shouted and glanced at Scarbrow.

Scarbrow seemed to understand something and turned his head to look at Jiang Sui with a lewd smile on his face.

"Oh, look carefully, she's still a little beauty. Come here and let brother kiss her first."

Scarbrow said this and approached Jiang Sui with his big yellow teeth bared.

Jiang Sui took a step back and bumped into the door handle; she groaned.

Then he looked at Scarface and said loudly, trying to remain calm, "Don't come over here!"

The other men in the room burst into laughter.

"Wu Zi, did you hear what the beauty shouted? Hahaha..."

Scarbrow acted as if he didn't hear anything and moved closer to Jiang Sui with a wicked smile.

Jiang Sui looked at the big yellow tooth so close to him, and nervously clenched his hands into fists. His nails dug into his palms, causing piercing pain.

Then in the blink of an eye, Jiang Sui raised his arm and slapped Scarface on the face.

Scarbrow looked at Jiang Sui in disbelief, "I'm giving you a chance by kissing you, and you dare to fight me?"

Scarbrow said this and rushed towards Jiang Sui angrily.

"ah!"

Jiang Sui screamed, turned his body sideways, and used his arms to block Scarbrow who was suddenly rushing towards him.
