Angus and Si Wei hadn't been awake to each other like this for a long time, but they were in the same space peacefully. Instead of breaking his eyes and pretending to sleep, he kept quietly looking at the watch on Angus's arm. That watch Angus often wears, some years, it is a brand that the company has never seen, and the quality does not look very good, and now it seems that it is very old.

"What's the story?" asked Angus, staring at the watch. This is a question he asked a long time ago, but he never opened his mouth, and today somehow, he suddenly wanted to ask him.

Angus followed Si Yuxiang's gaze, found the watch on his wrist, and said with a smile: "On the day of Si Yuxiang's burial, you were in Shucheng, in his cemetery, and no one could contact him. When I found the North Cemetery, Li Shangjue was sitting in front of Si Yuxiang's tombstone, and that day, I told him - Si Yuxiang is gone, you still have me. ”

It turned out that there was another such story, and Si Yu asked, "And then?"

In fact, he was just curious about how the lord reacted, and whether he beat Angus or not.

Angus knew what he was thinking at the moment from Si Qiao's expression, and he didn't hide it: "I confessed that night, and then ...... Li Shangjue beat me. It was also that night that I learned that in addition to being Si Ye, Si Ye also lived in this Li Shangjue. ”

Li Shangjue is not gentler than himself, if he beats Angus, the picture is ...... Si Qiang held back a smile and asked, "What does that have to do with this watch?"

"This watch was dropped by Li Shangjue in the cemetery at that time, and later I asked him, and he said that this watch belonged to Shen Xinglou. Li Shangjue said: "After a long time, I forgot to ask Shen Xinglou where this watch came from." ”

"I'll ask him the next time I see him. Angus said this a little deliberately, after all, he had promised Si Hao not long ago that he would not approach Shen Xinglou again, so he asked this sentence just to test Si Hao's tone, in fact, he was ready to be rejected.

However, Si Wei did not refuse him, but suddenly changed his words and asked him, "How long will it take?"

"It's right ahead. ”

"I'll be waiting for you in the car. When the car stopped in front of the mansion, the priest said this to Angus. Angus originally thought that the reason why Si Ge proposed to come over with him was because he had something to say to Joanna, after all, it was because of Joanna that he suffered from dissociative disorder that would be made public.

However, Si Yu had no intention of pursuing it.

Angus gets out of the car and finds Joanna on a small park bench outside the mansion. On the black marble round table, there are two bottles of red wine, which Joanna had brought back from Angus's winery.

"Coming?" Before Angus could get closer, Joanna's voice rang out.

She handed one of the glasses with the wine poured on it to the other side and motioned for Angus to sit down.

"I've been waiting for you for a long time. Joanna held her chin with one hand, she was wearing a black suspender lace skirt with a strap on the back, seven-inch red high heels, wrapped in a pair of bony jade + feet, with a soft smile on her face, absolutely sexy stunner.

Angus sat down across from Joanna, glanced at the red wine, but said, "If you come by car, don't drink." ”

"The person in the car, it's Simone, right?" Joanna tapped her chin in the direction of the car.

Angus replied: "He was too tired to let him drive." ”

With that, he pushed the glass back to Joanna.

Joanna raised the corners of her lips and smiled, then picked up the glass of red wine that should have belonged to Angus, drank it all, and then said, "I know you are here to ask the teacher for sin." ”

Angus didn't speak.

Joanna continued to speak as if to herself, "As I told Marvin, I want you to be happy. ”

"So you borrowed a knife to kill people and let Malven disclose S's condition?" Angus narrowed his eyes slightly and said, "I don't understand your starting point. ”

"Don't you understand? If you can't pierce that layer of window paper, you'll never make progress. Joanna raised her head, her bright eyes staring at Angus for a moment, and said, "To be merciful to the enemy is to be cruel to oneself, and this is true in the mall, and even more so in life." Angus, I said that if Simone doesn't love you, then he is your enemy, and sooner or later, you will die at his hands......"

"I didn't come to see you to ask the teacher for sin, do you believe it?" Angus frowned, and in his deep eyes, it seemed that there was a magnificent sea.

"Then what are you doing here?" Joanna really couldn't think of any other reason than Xingshi's question.

"Anna, what role do I play for you, friend?" said Angus, suddenly asking an unrelated question.

Joanna smiled, her smile mixed with a hint of desolation: "At first, I may have regarded you as a friend, but then I slowly began to find out that your family background is what I like, your appearance is what I like, and your personality is what I like." You, that's what I like. So, Ann, you've never been my friend. ”

The two looked at each other and were silent for a long time, until the air was about to freeze, and Angus spoke to Joanna and said, "I treat you as a friend." ”

"......" simply refused, and acted in the same style as Angus as always.

Joanna bowed her head and began to pour herself a drink again.

At this point, Angus opened his mouth to break the silence: "Anna. ”

Suddenly he called her name like this, and Joanna had to look up.

Angus said: "In the future, if you meet someone you like again, you must let the other person know your mind as soon as possible." Only after clarifying the other party's attitude can you know for the first time whether to give up or continue to persevere. It's usually easier to give up on a relationship when it's just starting out. ”

Joanna had thought of many ways for Angus to reject her, and even guessed the phrase 'I treat you as a friend', but she never expected that Angus would tell her this gentle and patient way.

It is rumored that Angus, the heir of the Arthur family, is a cold-blooded and cruel person, but it wasn't until she met Simone that Joanna knew that Angus had always been a sentient and righteous person, but he was the object of affection and sentimentality, and there was only one secretary from beginning to end.

The reason why he was able to say such heart-wrenching words to her was probably because he felt empathy, because he was now so in love that he couldn't extricate himself, so he would understand that it was easier to give up a relationship at the beginning of its germination.

Joanna is a strong woman, and under her sexy appearance, she hides a vigorous and resolute physique. But at this time, because of Angus's few words, tears fell in strings.

"Ann, you're so ruthless. She didn't say a word of refusal, but it broke her heart.

"Joanna, it's up to you to decide whether we want to continue to work together, and if you think you can make a difference between public and private, then I still hope you can stay with Caroline in the future, and the contract we signed before is valid. Otherwise, the contract we signed before will be void, and I don't want your liquidated damages. ”

Joanna pulled the tissue on the table, wiped the corners of her eyes elegantly, put away the embarrassment just now, and looked at Angus: "I just want to ask you one thing, what if...... Si Xiao doesn't love you as always, will you still insist?"

"There's no turning back. ”

"Then ......" Joanna pursed her lips and finally asked, "How long are you going to last?"

Angus's answer is also simple -

This life, this life, life after life.

Joanna smiled, the evening breeze blew her long flowing hair and brushed her cheeks, she didn't care at all, but after laughing, her expression was more serious than before: "Ann, have you ever thought that Si Qiao's current situation will only drag you down." Your life, your future, the identity, status, and fame you have now can all be ruined because of him!"

"Do I care?" Angus shook his head with a wicked, languid smile on his lips, and said to Joanna, "No, I don't care. Anna, as long as he's safe and sound, I'll have nothing. ”

"Then go ahead and do what you want!" said Joanna, "If Si Xiao really doesn't like you, he won't care what you become, it doesn't matter to him whether you live or die, and he doesn't care if he drags you down." ”

Joanna turned to leave, and before leaving, she left a sentence: "The man next to Caroline is called Mu Xu, right? I have checked his information, although he is a forensic doctor, his ability to make decisions and manage money is no worse than mine, and she is more suitable to accompany Caroline than me." ”

Joanna turned around and could only say silently in her heart - I'm sorry, Angus, for you, I can't distinguish between public and private.

Angus thought that Si Wei was still in the car, so he didn't delay any longer, but after watching Joanna disappear at the door of the mansion, he got up and walked in the direction of the car.

When he arrived, Si was fiddling with his phone.

"Bored?" Angus asked intimately, twisting the car keys, "When you're tired, sleep a little longer, and I'll call you when it's time." ”

"Angus. ”

"Huh?" Angus stopped as he was about to drive, and turned his head to look at Si Yu in confusion.

"I have something to tell you. ”

Angus was stunned for a moment, feeling that tonight's Si Gong was really a bit abnormal, but he still nodded, and asked in a soft voice, "What do you want to tell me?"

"If ......" Si Wei had just said two words, Angus's cell phone ringing interrupted what he was about to blurt out.

Originally, Angus didn't want to answer, but when he saw that the caller ID was Arthur, he had to frown and say to Si Wei: "I'll answer the phone and come back in a while." Wait for me. ”

Angus knew what Arthur was going to talk about, so he had to avoid the driver, he deliberately pulled the car door and got out of the car to answer the phone.

It's just that he didn't expect that he got out of the car, and just pressed the answer button, and suddenly-

The sound of a car engine starting pierces the sky throughout the dark night. The driver drove the car, slammed on the accelerator all the way, and roared past him......
