He is quiet for a moment, before saying, “Jing Yu, am I not allowed to call you if I have not signed the paper?”
She sighs; cursing herself for being so soft-hearted .
“What do you want?” asks Si Jing Yu, her voice icy .
“……………”
Si Jing Yu is a little irritated by the other party’s long silence, “If there is nothing else, I am hanging up . ”
Before she gets to do that, the other party calls her name, “Jing Yu……………”

Si Jing Yu is stunned, as though she is being controlled by him using magic . She puts the speaker of the phone close to her ear so that she can hear his voice better .
She does not say anything and can hear the other party’s faint breathing .
She stands in her spot without moving, listening to him quietly .
Shi Jin Yan speaks after a while, “My mother’s birthday is in this weekend . I am reminding you not to forget to prepare a gift . ”
A gift……
She clenches her fists tightly .

When she remembers her last encounter with Bai Yue, she feels like she is the biggest joke in this world .
What does this man take her for?
It is true that she loves him, but not to the point where she can discard her self-respect over it .
They have been married for years and he has always treated her respectfully but coldly . Only in front of their parents would he treat her with love and affection .
And now, he has clearly planned to bring Bai Yue there, what does he means by inviting her along?
Are they trying to get her blessing?
She takes a deep breath, “I am too busy . ”

Then, she hangs up without even waiting for his answer .
Her tears fall the moment the call ends . She covers her mouth with her palm to stop herself from making any sound .
Her body shudders from the emotional pain that she is going through . She sits helplessly on the floor .
After who knows how long, she finally lifts her head again . There are hardly any tears left in her eyes; instead, she looks resolute and cold .
She, Si Jing Yu, is a rich young lady and has been raised with pride . Since his parents came from the countryside and are very frugal, she started to become economical with her food and clothes as well .
She used to wear custom-made clothes, but when his mother started buying her clothes from the road-side shops, she would wear them regardless if they were too small or too big for her .
She never eat from road-side stalls when she was younger, but had no problem going there to eat hot and sour noodles with her mother-in-law .
She was willing to change so much to appease her mother-in-law, only for all this to happen .
She smiles; what has become of her life?
After Bai Yue came back into their lives, she ran out of the country for half a year, resolute to leave him . But, if one thinks carefully, what fault does she have in this, to have to go through all that? Her only fault is falling in love with Shi Jin Yan .
She must not be weak . It is time to wake up .
She takes a couple of deep breaths and calms herself down .
She gets up and walks to the couch, opening her laptop . Then, she starts designing . She is very unhappy with the recent drafts that she has made these past few days .
