Chapter 011: Charming Old Man
Translator:Dragon Boat TranslationEditor:Dragon Boat Translation
"I don't mind reminding you again. You're Mrs. Fu now! You have nothing to do with anyone else!" Fu Zhen's deep eyes could mesmerize people like the deep sea when he stared at them.
Si Mi understood what he meant, but she wasn't afraid of him at all. Anyway, she and Fu Xing wouldn't have anything to do with each other anymore. She deliberately said to him mischievously, "So what?! Second Uncle!"
Fu Zhen looked at the fearless Si Mi and narrowed his eyes dangerously. He quickly bent over, like a fierce lone wolf catching a silly little rabbit. He turned his head slightly and kissed her lips very quickly. However, the kiss landed gently. Si Mi was stunned. She was a little shocked by Fu Zhen. Fu Zhen actually kissed her directly!
"Then I'll kiss you! I'll kiss you every time you shout it! Is it fun?" There was mirth in the man's tone. He looked at Si Mi, who hadn't reacted yet, and his heart was full of mischief!
Si Mi jumped down from the chair abruptly and ran away in a hurry without looking back!
Just like that, Fu Zhen kissed her! Si Mi's face was flushed. She felt that her heart was about to jump out. Second Uncle Fu's charm wasn't something she could resist! He was too irresistible!
Although in her previous life, she was pregnant with a child, the state of mind and the situation were completely different. Just now, she actually had the feeling of being in love for the first time!
As he watched Si Mi's retreating figure, the smile in Fu Zhen's eyes deepened.
It was getting late at night. Si Mi was still studying the script for "Beacon Fire Beauty" when the ringtone of her phone interrupted her thoughts. "What's wrong, Sister Lan?"
Lan Xin's happy voice came through the microphone. "You've passed the audition at noon! The contract can be signed the day after tomorrow, but the male lead hasn't been finalized yet. He'll probably enter the set later!"
"That's great, Sister Lan!" Si Mi put down the script in her hand and stood up happily.
"There's another piece of good news! I just talked to the producer of 'Fast Forward' on the phone. Their recording time has been brought forward. It'll be in the next few days!"
"So fast?!" Si Mi said in surprise. "Then I'll go with you tomorrow! The remuneration isn't important at all!" Si Mi's determination was so firm that Lan Xin originally wanted to negotiate a higher remuneration.
"Okay, that's fine. I'll book a plane ticket for you!"
Si Mi agreed and hung up the phone. For a moment, she was very excited. Everything seemed to be particularly smooth, including getting along with Fu Zhen!
The next day, Si Mi woke up very early. When Fu Zhen came out of the room, she had already asked Auntie Sun to help her pack her things! She brought all the things that she needed. Lan Xin would arrange the rest for her.
Fu Zhen stood at the door and looked at Si Mi, who was busy. Was she afraid just because of that? Was she going to run away with her luggage?
"Where are you going?"
Si Mi only saw him when he heard the man's voice. Fu Zhen had also finished washing up. He was wearing a light brown suit. He seemed to look exquisite and handsome no matter what!
"I'm going to M City to discuss the contract!" Si Mi answered him.
"Where's your agent? Are you going to discuss the contract alone?" The man seemed to be a little unhappy.
Si Mi hurriedly explained, "The director is rushing me! Sister Lan is already downstairs. There's no problem. I'll go with her. I can join the cast soon!"
Fu Zhen looked at Si Mi. After a few breaths, he softly replied, "Okay."
Si Mi could not tell what Fu Zhen's expression was, but Si Mi could hear the displeasure in his voice.
"Their recording boards are quite scattered. It might take about five days at a time. I'll be back soon!" Si Mi said softly to him. Hearing the gentle and slightly probing tone in her voice, Auntie Sun laughed softly.
"It's just a few days of work! Young Master, don't you often go on business trips for a week?" Auntie Sun looked at Fu Zhen with some ridicule. "You're asking so many details. Miss isn't a child!"
Fu Zhen felt very uncomfortable. "I'm going to work!" Si Mi and Auntie Sun exchanged glances and both of them chuckled.
After Lan Xin, the director, and the producer finalized the contract, they got up. "Then we'll start tomorrow! I wish us a pleasant cooperation!"
The director laughed. "Thank you! You guys rushed over so quickly. We're really spinning in circles!"
Lan Xin exchanged a few pleasantries with him and left with Si Mi after making an appointment for the next day.
On the way back to the hotel, Lan Xin told Si Mi about the other three people who were on the show with her. They were the C-list female celebrity with the label of 'Rich Lady', Gu Man, and Bai Luo, an original singer who had just debuted, and He He, a newcomer in a female group. Of course, Bai Luo was different from He He. Bai Luo had a small number of fans and was a very talented musician!

Translator:Dragon Boat TranslationEditor:Dragon Boat Translation
Si Mi held the profiles of these people in her hands and read them as she listened to Lan Xin's speech. In her previous life, Bai Luo and He He were deeply loved by everyone because of their outstanding performance in the show and their steadfast and hardworking image. It could be considered their first shot in the entertainment industry, and they had also accumulated a certain amount of fans!
Bai Luo, because of her outstanding talent and her gentle and cute personality, was very popular in the show. In her previous life, before Si Mi died, she was already a superstar who had won countless awards!
Lan Xin didn't know about this and was still complaining, "Who do you think these people are?! The biggest celebrity is actually Gu Man! If it weren't for your insistence, this kind of show wouldn't have been screened over to me. It would have already been passed down below!"
Si Mi raised her head to look at her. "Trust me, Sister Lan! This show will definitely become very popular!"
Lan Xin really had no choice but to follow Si Mi from time to time, so that she wouldn't have to suffer too much while recording the show! After all, she had been reminded by Mr. Fu's assistant, so she didn't dare to be careless!
The next day, "Fast Forward" officially started recording. This show even started the popularity of reality shows later on! The purpose of the show was for the young people to return to the countryside and find the innocence and simple romance lost in the city by combining various elements such as gourmet food and travel!
The recording began. It included Si Mi, Bai Luo, and He He. The three girls rode the program's bus to Fengming village, where the recording was taking place!
Bai Luo wasn't very tall. She wasn't pretty, but she was very delicate and cute. Si Mi felt that she would like her! The three girls greeted each other. He He was a carefree girl with a loud voice and a lively personality.
"Hello! I'm He He. Just call me Xiao He. If there's a chance, I can teach everyone how to dance!" She had two pigtails. She looked very youthful and lively.
Si Mi smiled and greeted her. "Hello, my name is Si Mi. I'm an actress!"
She looked at Bai Luo. "Hello, I've heard your songs before! They're very nice to listen to!"
Bai Luo smiled shyly. "Thank you!"
"My name is Bai Luo. Nice to meet you guys."
The camera recorded the three of them meeting for the first time. He He looked at Si Mi, who was the last to enter, and asked, "Where's Gu Man?"
Si Mi naturally didn't know. The director said outside the film, "She is already over there! Let's go over now!"
The bus drove further and further away. The road condition was gradually getting worse, but the scenery outside the window was getting better and better. Along the way, the fragrance of flowers filled the air. It was a sea of flowers. Si Mi was in a very relaxed mood. She had taken a lot of pictures of the scenery, and after thinking for a while, she casually sent a few pictures to Fu Zhen.
Looking at the bumpy mud road and the old pavilions in front of her, Si Mi knew how naive her previous happy and relaxed mood was! The few of them looked troubled, especially Si Mi. She even wore a pair of small leather shoes with real leather heels today. 'What a mistake!' Si Mi thought!
Bai Luo had already silently pulled her luggage and was stumbling in front! He He had a sad expression on her face, but she didn't complain and followed behind. Si Mi gritted her teeth and pulled her luggage as well. She followed unsteadily.
She was wearing a simple and elegant beige dress and a pair of exquisite stilettos. She looked like a princess who had left the mortal world! She was very beautiful, but the 'princess' wasn't in a very good mood.
Fortunately, they soon arrived at the recording location for this episode. Touching her swollen ankles, Si Mi quickly found a pair of socks and sneakers for herself to change into! The director then called for the gathering to present the mission for the night!
Gu Man sat on the chair and looked at the beautiful scene. Si Mi took the initiative to greet her. The woman only glanced at her and nodded slightly. She kept talking to He He, who was beside her, and was a little cold!
Si Mi didn't care much. She took over her task and opened it to take a look. "Please prepare the ingredients for tonight's cooking!"
Fortunately, they didn't ask her to cook. They only wanted her to wash the vegetables. Suddenly, she thought of Fu Zhen. He had eaten all of them! Si Mi was confident. She felt that she was very talented! Little did she know that Mr. Fu couldn't bear to reject her!
Gu Man was the first to receive a mission, but she was a little unlucky, as she had a lot of miscellaneous tasks to do. When she saw Si Mi's mission, she felt very upset and her expression immediately darkened.
Gu Man came forward. "Si Mi!"
"I'll trade with you!"

Translator:Dragon Boat TranslationEditor:Dragon Boat Translation
Si Mi looked at her in confusion. This woman's unfriendliness towards her was so obvious, and she had never interacted with her before. Why?! She seemed so self-righteous. Who owed her? Was this the attitude to beg someone with? It wasn't that Si Mi couldn't switch with her, but looking at her arrogant appearance, Si Mi really didn't want to indulge her!
"Why? Can we switch missions as we please, director?" Si Mi pretended to ask!
The director didn't want to offend them, so he could only say, "As long as you're willing!"
Si Mi said straightforwardly, "No!"
Then, she pulled Bai Luo to do a mission!
While washing the things, Si Mi chatted with Bai Luo. "This village is quite beautiful!"
"Yes, I want to go to the sea of flowers tomorrow to sketch!"
Si Mi was surprised. "You can even draw?!"
Bai Luo was amused by her surprised tone. "A little! It would be a bit of a waste if I don't go and take a look."
"The program team will definitely let us go. There's no need to rush!" Si Mi pinched the tomato in her hand and repeatedly washed it. Bai Luo couldn't help but remind her.
"Si Mi! That's enough. You've already washed it three times!"
Si Mi was stunned. "Really?" She had an extremely beautiful and gorgeous appearance, but the dazed look just now was really cute.
Bai Luo smiled and nodded, then looked at Si Mi. "You're really beautiful! Si Mi!"
Si Mi smiled brightly. She was used to hearing other people praise her, but Bai Luo's sincerity was really funny!
After dinner, they played a few more games, and the results were unexpectedly good. The lively He He, the beautiful and interesting Si Mi, and the gentle and amiable Bai Luo got to know each other very quickly. Only Gu Man was still a little reserved because she thought that she had the highest status, but the gains didn't make up for the losses!
The first day of recording was over, and Si Mi was quite tired. She lay on the small bed. In summer, there were many mosquitoes, and it was hot. She missed her big bed, and she also missed Mr. Fu!
Fu Zhen had seen the scenery photos that she had sent Fu Zhen, but why didn't he reply?! Si Mi thought about it and gave Fu Zhen a call, but no one picked up. "It's already 11 o'clock. Is he still busy?" Si Mi muttered to herself.
Fu Zhen had just come out of the shower and didn't receive her call. He drank some wine and was slightly tipsy! He gave Si Mi a call. "Huh?"
Si Mi thought, 'don't you know how to answer a call?! What the heck!' But she didn't dare to. "Haven't you rested yet?"
Fu Zhen didn't wear a mask when he was alone. He rubbed his temples and actually felt a little better after hearing Si Mi's voice. "I just went to take a shower. No."
"Are you busy today?"
"Yes. What's wrong?" Fu Zhen meant that he didn't know what was going on that made her call so late. He just wanted to hear her voice.
Si Mi wrapped her hair and her little feet swayed. Fortunately, Fu Zhen couldn't see it. Otherwise, the man would only think that she was trying to seduce him.
"Have you seen the photos I sent? It's quite beautiful here..." As she spoke, she slapped the mosquito in her hand to death. "There are too many mosquitoes. I'll bring you to take a look next time when I have the chance!"
Fu Zhen listened as she spoke. Her voice made his heart flutter. He was silent for a moment. "Okay."
They chatted for a long time again. Si Mi nagged while Fu Zhen listened. Occasionally, he would respond to her. "I still need a few more days before I can go back. Sigh... I miss Auntie Sun's dishes!" Si Mi nagged. She didn't know what she wanted to say!
He looked at the time. It was past 12 o'clock. Fu Zhen leaned against the headboard. The two of them had been chatting for almost an hour. "Go to sleep! Don't you still have to record tomorrow?"
"Mm... Okay!" Si Mi held her phone. Her palm was burning.
Sensing Si Mi's hesitation, Fu Zhen asked, "Why? Did you miss me?" He wasn't a fool. Si Mi had been chatting with him all night. It wasn't hard to guess what the little girl was thinking. Si Mi liked him?
After Fu Zhen said that, he quieted down again. Si Mi listened to her own heartbeat that suddenly sped up. The answers to some of the questions were ready to come out!
In her previous life, when she was at her most helpless and most miserable, when she was abandoned and lied to by the whole world, he, Fu Zhen, was the only one who avenged her and shed tears for her!
Si Mi was a little muddle-headed during that period of time. However, ever since she was reborn, she had seen what Fu Zhen had done for her. People could lie, but their hearts couldn't!
"Yes! I miss you!"
Fu Zhen's breathing became heavy. "Do you know what you're saying?"
"I know!" Si Mi sat up straight and clenched her little hands tightly. "Fu Zhen! I think I like you." If at this moment, Fu Zhen was right in front of her, she might still be a little worried and a little shy, but on the phone, she didn't need to think so much!

Translator:Dragon Boat TranslationEditor:Dragon Boat Translation
Most of the time, what people lacked was a momentary burst of courage. The accumulated feelings of love and affection were like balloons filled with water. They would expand. When the pressure was too strong, they would suddenly burst, and adrenaline stimulated the brain. The impulse to tell this person that she liked him couldn't be stopped at all!
Si Mi had used a lot of courage, so after she confessed to Fu Zhen, the silence on the phone made her heart leap to her throat!
Fu Zhen was the last ray of light she felt in her previous life when she was disappointed in this world, when she lost her entire faith, when she was deceived and used by everyone. This person, at that time, still loved her and cared about her! What a precious chance to do it all over again. Si Mi swore that she would catch him, and they would still have a chance to fall in love!
When Fu Zhen heard Si Mi's words, his breathing suddenly became very labored and his heart was beating abnormally. "Shouldn't you like me? I'm your husband!" There was mirth in his tone after that, and he sounded very happy too!
Si Mi was relieved and her face started to heat up. Her palms were burning and her voice became even lower when she answered Fu Zhen. "Yes! Then... Mr. Fu, good night!" As she said that, she directly hung up the phone!
Listening to the beeping on the phone, Fu Zhen smiled helplessly. Si Mi was a little vixen who was born to tease him. Thinking of her, Fu Zhen felt his blood boiling. Something wasn't right!
Just her saying 'Mr. Fu' almost made him lose his sensed. The two of them were like a couple in love for the first time. They would be extremely happy because of each other's confession and actions! It was really a little childish, Fu Zhen thought to himself as he lay on the bed. However, the smile on his face didn't fade!
Si Mi, who was terrified after flirting with Fu Zhen and quickly ran away, didn't care about what happened to Fu Zhen! Her face turned red as she collapsed on the small bed. Joy seeped out!
She had a good night's sleep. Si Mi, who had woken up early, had a sweet smile on her pretty little face!
The recording for the rest of the day was also very smooth. Everyone got along very well. The friendship between young people developed very quickly. Of course, the exception was Gu Man, who had always found Si Mi an eyesore!
Gu Man's hostility was too obvious. She had been picking fights all day and trying to rope people in. She was badmouthing everyone. Her methods were too simple and single-minded. It made her look stupid and evil!
Si Mi couldn't even be bothered with her. Right now, she only wanted to do a good job on the variety show. She didn't want to be bothered by these small matters and waste her energy!
Si Mi's situation wasn't limited to this. However, it didn't mean that if she didn't stir up trouble, Gu Man, who was full of malice towards her, would let her off easily.
The filming on this day was very hard because the weather was too hot and the sun was scorching. When they were divided into groups to do tasks, Si Mi drew a simpler group. Gu Man and He He were going to pick a lot of things on this day!
He He looked at Gu Man, who was about to make trouble again, and felt helpless. She didn't want to go either, but a task was a task. Since you had signed a contract with the program team, you had to cooperate with them within the scope of the contract. Otherwise, why would they invite a lazy and picky person like you to come!?
However, as a newbie, it was hard for her to say these words. Gu Man quit and started arguing with the director, "What kind of damn task is this? Do you have any humanity? Why does Si Mi and the others not need to bask in the sun?!"
"Sister Man! This is a mission that you picked yourself!"The director suppressed his temper and explained.
Gu Man waved her hand, "I don't care. Why does she always get an easy mission every time?!"
"Sister Man, you always pick the mission first!"
"What do you mean? Did she give you benefits for you to set me up?!" Even a beautiful woman was ugly when she threw a tantrum!
The director was helpless. "That's Si Mi's good luck! Can you stop making trouble for no reason? You're not the only one whose time is wasted!"
"How am I making trouble for no reason?! Ah! What do you mean by that!?"
Si Mi had been sitting at the side and calmly drinking iced soda, but at this moment, she really couldn't stand it anymore. She was being unreasonable. "You don't even understand this?! Can you understand how much the penalty for breach of contract is?!"
Gu Man was unconvinced and wanted to argue with Si Mi. The cameras at the scene had already been turned off. The manager and assistant by the side didn't even have time to hold her back. She flew into a rage and wanted to go up to hit her! Si Mi thought, hurry up and get this person off the show!

Sure enough, the next second, Si Mi's psyche power affected Gu Man. Gu Man tripped over her right foot with her left foot and fell heavily in front of everyone. The difficulty of her posture was too high, and the fall was pitiful and ugly. It took everyone quite a while to react.
The scene was a mess. Lan Xin protected Si Mi and quietly retreated. The group's doctor said that her cervical vertebra was twisted. It was quite serious, and she had to go to the hospital! The group of people hugged each other and rushed to the hospital in a hubbub. They wouldn't be able to record today!
Gu Man was seriously injured and couldn't keep up with the post-filming. The program team had rearranged their schedule overnight. The last day of filming was completed by Si Mi and the other two girls!
In fact, there were almost no tasks for today. They were only doing the last day of filming for the current episode and were going to the sea of flowers together to do a shoot of the sea of flowers tourism promotion with the program team!
The weather was very good today. It wasn't hot like a few days ago, and the program team didn't have Gu Man, who was difficult to deal with. The three girls' journey seemed much more relaxed and happy!
The Phoenix Cry Sea of Flowers was a very famous scenic spot in the local area. Although it wasn't the peak season now, there were still hundreds of flowers blooming to attract tourists. Beautiful things attracted people's attention, and so did flowers and people!
Si Mi was wearing a white dress today and was holding a special bamboo basket in her hand. There were fruits and cold drinks inside. She wore a big sun hat on her head. Her simple beauty stunned Bai Luo and He He. There was never a shortage of beautiful women in their circle, but it was rare to see someone like Si Mi!
Along the way, the cameraman didn't stop filming. Si Mi was too beautiful. How could such a person not be popular? The director and producer looked at her and thought, maybe the next superstar was right in front of them!
The filming of the promotional film was also very smooth. It was the last day, and the next time they would see each other would be a week later. After the work was done, the director gave everyone a half-day off. Si Mi pulled Bai Luo into the scenic area. She had promised to accompany Bai Luo to paint here!
Bai Luo set up the easel and focused on her work. Si Mi was still taking pictures with her camera. After a while, she was tired and walked back to Bai Luo!
Looking at Bai Luo's work, she gave her a thumbs up. "Amazing!"
Bai Luo smiled and pointed at the girl in white.
"This is me?" Si Mi asked in surprise!
"Yes, it's you!" Bai Luo's smile widened as she looked at her.
"Wow! Bai Luo! You're too impressive!" Si Mi said as he hugged Bai Luo tightly and didn't let go. Her coquettish tone made Bai Luo feel bashful, not to mention Fu Zhen, who was standing not far behind her!
Lan Xin led Fu Zhen to stand in the distance. She was a little nervous because he was too intimidating and because Si Mi was almost bullied yesterday!
Fu Zhen's secretary and Lan Xin looked at each other and smiled in tacit understanding! Fu Zhen had informed Lan Xin that he was coming to pick Si Mi up a day in advance. Si Mi didn't know that Fu Zhen wanted to see Si Mi's expression when she suddenly saw him!
However, Fu Zhen only saw the girl who had confessed to him that day hugging another girl and acting like a spoiled child. Although they were both girls, Fu Zhen still felt jealous!
As if Fu Zhen's gaze was too intimidating, Bai Luo turned her head, and Si Mi also turned her head. When she saw Fu Zhen, Si Mi was stunned, as if she had not expected it at all. However, the sudden smile on her face let Fu Zhen know that he was right to come!
Si Mi let go of Bai Luo and ran toward Fu Zhen. The girl's dress fluttered, and she threw herself into the man's embrace!
Her joy and love were so obvious that Fu Zhen was shocked! He opened his arms and hugged her. In the sea of flowers, she carried the fragrance of flowers and truly walked into his world!
This scene was too beautiful, so much so that Bai Luo felt that the scene was filled with happiness even when she thought about it later on!
Hence, there was the popular "The Language of Flowers"! Of course, this was for the future!
Si Mi hugged the man and pressed her face against his chest. Her voice was muffled. "Why are you here?"
Fu Zhen lowered his head to look at her. His eyes were full of mirth, and his tone was filled with affection. "Didn't you miss me? I'm here to bring you home."
Si Mi really wanted to kiss this man. How could he be so charming? His chest was so broad, his arms were so strong, and he treated her so well! However, there were too many people around her, and she was too embarrassed to!
Bai Luo came back to her senses and asked softly, "Si Mi, this is?"
Si Mi wanted to turn around to answer Bai Luo, but a certain someone refused to let go. She could only tilt her head and say to Bai Luo, "My husband! Fu Zhen."

That afternoon, Fu Zhen spent half a day playing with Si Mi. Si Mi's happiness infected him, and he also gave his assistant and staff a half day off! Everyone was very grateful to Si Mi, because the intensity of work was very high recently, and it had been a long time since they had relaxed!
Bai Luo tactfully didn't continue to follow. She didn't want to be a third wheel.
There wasn't anyone following them. Si Mi brought Fu Zhen to see the flowers and the water, and they were playing in the scenic area! But what Fu Zhen really wanted to see was right in front of him.
"Let me take a photo of you!" Si Mi held the camera in her hand and was about to take a photo of the man!
Fu Zhen reached out and gently pressed her wrist. "I never take photos outside!"
Si Mi felt the warmth of his hot palm. It was dry and warm. "Why?"
Fu Zhen looked at her. "I'll tell you in the future!"
"But I want a photo of you!" Si Mi looked at him with anticipation. "I promise I won't leak it!"
Si Mi pursed her lips lightly. Her big eyes were filled with anticipation. How could he refuse?!
"What are you doing here?"
Si Mi smiled slyly and said in a mischievous manner, "Of course I'm thinking of you. I'll keep it for later!" She would join the crew later to film. She would barely see him!
Fu Zhen understood her meaning and couldn't help but nod. Si Mi cheered. Looking at Si Mi's appearance, he felt that it was worth it to compromise and accommodate for her!
Because of his own reasons, Fu Zhen never took photos or group photos. He wouldn't even show up for business meetings that were not very big or important. He was an extremely mysterious but terrifying existence in the business circle!
The mask that he wore all year round was as thin as the wings of a Cicada. It was exquisite and special, and it even became a symbol of him. It was rumored that underneath the mask was an ugly and terrifying face that had been damaged by the fire!
But Si Mi knew that wasn't the case. She, thinking that he didn't realize it, carefully observed Fu Zhen. She thought that one day, she would use her love to move Fu Zhen, to warm him, and to let his guard down!
She would give him trust and let him know that she was a lover that he could trust and be honest with! She wanted him to tell her all the bad and painful experiences that he had gone through, and not to suffer alone in silence anymore!
Si Mi's eyes were soulful, and at this moment, he was the only one in her eyes!
Fu Zhen gently curled her left hand. Her soft little hand was held in the palm of his hand, and he held on to her all the way without letting go! It was as if he had done this countless times. Si Mi's eyes were chasing after him, and his heart felt fulfilled!
"Don't tease me anymore!" The man reached out and tapped her forehead. His meaning was 'don't provoke me'!
Si Mi smiled and restrained herself. They were still outside!
When they went back, Si Mi was reluctant to leave. Fu Zhen looked at her and comforted her by saying that he would accompany her again next time when he had time. Only then did Si Mi smile again.
Lan Xin looked at Si Mi, who was very independent in front of her, and how obedient she was in front of Fu Zhen. She was in awe!
It was almost 12 o'clock when the two of them reached home. If it wasn't because Fu Zhen's work schedule was too full and Si Mi received a call from Si Yan asking her to go home, they wouldn't be in such a hurry and wouldn't be so tired!
Her brother Si Yan was an ignorant and incompetent second-generation heir. He didn't do proper work, and hanged out with a bunch of good-for-nothings. In her previous life, at her funeral, he seemed to be the only one whose grief was more believable!
Her relationship with Si Yan wasn't close. In her previous life, their relationship couldn't even be compared to her relationship with Deputy Si. Deputy Si was the son of Si Long and Gao Ping, and he was her half-brother. Thinking back to the past, Si Mi felt that she was really stupid. She didn't want to get close to her own brother, but instead, she was 'family' with a group of people who didn't care about her!
Ever since Gao Ping entered the family, Si Yan had been living in school. After graduation, he didn't come back. He stayed in his own home and rarely went back to the Si family's home. This time, he actually took the initiative to come back and even asked her to come with him! What was the matter?

Translator:Dragon Boat TranslationEditor:Dragon Boat Translation
In the afternoon, the sun was shining brightly. Si Yan had just woken up from his 'hangover' when he saw the information sent over by the detective who contacted him on a one-way basis. His mind instantly cleared up as he browsed through the information on it. His brain was operating at a rapid speed. He had sorted out all the clues straightaway!
His mother's death was indeed inextricably linked to Gao Ping. This woman was really well-hidden! There was still no conclusive evidence that pointed directly at her. However, after putting everything together, he was certain that it was Gao Ping!
Si Mi and Si Yan's mother had a weak heart when she was alive. She needed the care and treatment of doctors all year round, so Si Long hired a senior nurse to take care of her at home. This senior nurse was the current Mrs. Si. Although the hospital confirmed that their mother had died of heart failure, Si Yan wasn't as pure and kind as Si Mi was. The stubborn teenager refused to believe that just like that, their mother had abandoned her two children!
The marriage between Gao Ping and Si Long had been held so succinctly and quickly. Everything seemed to have been planned out! It was definitely not a simple coincidence!
Si Yan protested and objected to Si Long's quick second marriage. How long had it been since their mother had passed away?! Si Long couldn't wait to remarry. Had Gao Ping's gentleness and carelessness caused him to lose his senses?
However, it was ineffective. Si Yan saw Si Long's fickleness and Gao Ping's hypocrisy. He understood that Si Long, this heartless, selfish, and cold father, wasn't reliable at all! He had to rely on himself!
However, he wasn't powerful enough. Even after investigating for a long time, he still couldn't find any concrete evidence against Gao Ping! On the other hand, Gao Ping had allowed her daughter, Gao Ling, to enjoy a lavish life in the Si family for so many years. She even gave birth to a son for Si Long!
Gao Ling had only changed her surname to Si after entering the Si family. This little girl was also not to be underestimated. Just like her mother, she was good at using her gentle and weak disguise and beautiful looks to gain benefits for herself!
Si Yan knew that Si Ling had several rich second-generation heirs spending money for her. Even after entering a high-class family, some people's petty nature couldn't be hidden! Si Yan didn't like her. All he wanted to do was to find out about Gao Ping's dirty secret and avenge his mother!
Si Mi was a silly girl. She was still too young, so it wasn't right to drag her into this. Therefore, although Si Yan was thinking about his sister, he didn't tell her about the dark and insidious things behind it!
However, Si Yan's strength was limited. Although Si Mi was forced to marry into the Fu family, who was Fu Zhen? He was powerful and ruthless. He had been married to Si Mi for a few months. Si Yan was thinking if he could pull Fu Zhen in, he would have great support!
Therefore, this time, he planned to tell Si Mi everything he knew. Si Mi was innocent and kind, but her stubbornness and high-minded character would definitely make her choose to stand on his side!
Si Mi naturally didn't know that Si Yan had so many thoughts behind his call. She happily went to meet him. Although she didn't want to see anyone else, she still wanted to see her biological brother!
The last time she saw Si Yan was during her 'funeral'. After she was reborn, she was busy trying to build a closer relationship with Fu Zhen. She was busy taking on variety shows, dramas, attending press releases, and even temporarily put Si Ling and Gao Ping's matter aside, so not to mention Si Yan!
Si Yan said that Si Long hadn't been feeling well recently and that he wanted Si Mi to go back with him to visit him. Of course, before they went home, they needed to buy some things! Si Yan and Si Long's relationship was so stiff that Si Mi didn't believe that Si Yan would sincerely want to buy some supplements for Si Long!
Therefore, when she saw Si Yan in a secret cafe. Si Mi didn't find it strange. When she looked at the handsome man who looked somewhat similar to her, Si Mi's eyes were a little moist. "Brother!"
Si Yan hadn't heard Si Mi call him so softly for a long time. Si Yan was a little stunned. The telepathic feeling from sharing the same bloodline made Si Mi feel different!
"Sit down! Warm coffee, 7% sugar!" Si Yan pointed to the seat opposite him and said to Si Mi!
A true family member, no matter in time and space, loved you the most and remembered all of your likes and dislikes!
"Have you been very busy recently?" Si Yan asked her.
Si Mi nodded. "Yes, I received a few jobs and only came back last night!"
"Take care and rest!"
To Si Yan, this was only his sister whom he hadn't seen for more than half a month, but to Si Mi, it was a long-awaited reunion after her reincarnation.
"Yes. Brother! Have you gone to see mom recently?"
Si Yan looked into her eyes and nodded. "Yes, yesterday."
"I haven't been there for a long time. I have these few days off, so accompany me!" Si Mi lowered her head as if she was very guilty!
Si Yan replied, "Alright! I have time!" Si Yan was certain that his decision was wise!

The brother and sister sat in the coffee shop and chatted for a long time. During this time, Si Yan was angered several times. He hated Gao Ping and Si Ling to the extreme. When he told Si Mi everything, the hatred and pain in Si Yan's eyes seemed genuine!
As Si Mi listened to Si Yan's words, she was shocked, dismayed, sorrowful, and angry! Although she had experienced Si Ling and Gao Ping's manipulation in her previous life, she had never thought that her mother, such a gentle and elegant person, had actually been schemed against by that detestable and treacherous woman!
The evidence that Si Yan had placed in front of her wasn't sufficient and lacked some of the most crucial direct evidence. However, Si Mi, who knew a lot about what happened afterward, was already certain that it was Gao Ping! This woman was so scheming and vicious.
First, she plotted to get close to Si Long, then she used her job for personal benefits and 'take care' of the former Mrs. Si. No wonder, during that period of time, Si Mi had always felt that her mother's mood was very fickle and she always had a lot on her mind! It turned out that there were so many things that she didn't know. Her mother had also experienced so much pain during the last period of her life! Si Long wasn't worthy of her mother at all!
Si Long, her father, had actually cheated on her mother with Gao Ping while her mother was struggling with pain and endless torture! They had been having an affair since her mother was still alive. Him saying that they were worried that their children would be too young, that no one would care for him at home, that Auntie Gao was gentle and considerate, and that she was her mother's good friend so she could take good care of the family was all a lie! Si Long was lying to her!
Tears burst out of Si Mi's eyes. Although she had already been disappointed in her father, after knowing the truth, Si Mi still felt like a knife was cutting through her heart. Were the relationships in this world so superficial? It made people feel a little discouraged.
Si Yan took a tissue and handed it to her. "When I found out, I was in the same pain as you! I fought against him! But it was useless. I don't know what Gao Ping did to him, but he only has eyes for that mother and daughter!"
"I know! What do you want me to do?!" Si Mi wiped her tears with her hands, and she was as determined as Si Yan was!
"Si Ling has been seducing Fu Xing recently! They even want to establish ties with the Fu Family!" Si Yan laughed scornfully. "I want you to expose Si Ling in front of Fu Xing! Let Fu Xing know her true colors and ruin their plans!"
"Fu Xing?" Si Mi frowned.
Si Yan said to her anxiously, "I know that you used to like Fu Xing! But you and Fu Zhen are already married, so you should move on! Fu Zhen is even more helpful to us! Do you understand?" Si Mi saw the pleading in Si Yan's eyes!
Si Yan appeared to be a little impatient. He even used Si Mi as a medium for him to rope in Fu Zhen, but he really had no other way! There were tears in his eyes. "Help me, okay?"
Si Mi reached out and held her brother's hand. "I want to help you! Helping mother to get revenge should be something that both you and I should do together! I've long moved on from Fu Xing! Fu Zhen..."
Si Mi paused for a moment. "I don't want to use Fu Zhen! I can help you too. You have to believe me!" The look in the girl's eyes was even more resolute than Si Yan's. At least she still had principles. Si Yan could no longer care about that!
Looking at her, Si Yan gradually calmed down. "I believe in you!"
Si Mi heaved a sigh of relief and smiled at him. "I've already grown up! You can trust me!" Si Yan's expression softened and he nodded!
"Then are we still going back to the Si family today?" Si Mi asked. She was afraid that she wouldn't be able to control herself upon seeing Gao Ping and Si Ling!
"His health has been very bad recently! I have to go back and take a look to prevent Gao Ping from directly taking over the Si family! You..." Si Yan looked at her worriedly.
"I'll go with you!"
In the Si family's master bedroom on the second floor, Si Long was leaning against the headboard of the bed. Gao Ping gently handed the medicine to him. "Those two children said that they're coming back to see you!"
"Hmph! Do they still know that I'm their father? Si Yan comes home once every few months! Si Mi..." He wanted to criticize Si Mi. However, he realized that there was nothing wrong with her. In fact, the last time, he was the one who asked Si Mi to ask Fu Zhen for help! "Hmph!" He snorted. "She's still somewhat useful! Marrying her to Fu Zhen was the right thing to do!"
Gao Ping wiped the corner of Si Long's mouth with a handkerchief and echoed, "Yes! You're really far-sighted!"
The members of the Si family weren't bad-looking. After all, their genes were too outstanding. Mrs. Si was already a great beauty. Si Long was once a handsome man, but as he got older, he became more and more greasy, and a little perverted!
The servant knocked on the door. "Master, Madam, the eldest young master and eldest young madam are back! They're waiting for you downstairs!"

Si Long saw them in the living room. Gao Ping pulled Si Ling, who was about to go out. "Stay at home today! Don't go out and cause trouble for me!"
Si Ling rolled her eyes. "What did I do now?!"
"You know your own business!" Si Ling had been causing too much trouble in school recently. "Your father hasn't been well recently. Can you let me worry less?" Gao Ping said to her in a suppressed voice.
"You didn't listen to me! Why didn't you do anything with Fu Xing?" Gao Ping looked at her and asked.
Si Ling was very speechless. "What can I do if he ignores me?!"
"You have to think of a way and find an opportunity! Did you remember what I taught you? You useless brat!" Gao Ping almost pointed at her nose and scolded!
"I got it!" Although she was extremely unwilling, she still obediently put down her bag and prepared to go downstairs!
Gao Ping saw Si Mi sitting on the sofa and quickly walked over. "Mi Mi! You haven't been back for a long time! I know you're busy with work, but you can't forget to come back and visit your father!" As she said that, she was about to hold Si Mi's hand intimately.
Si Mi turned sideways and avoided her. "I was busy for a few days and only came back yesterday!"
Si Long's expression improved a little after hearing Si Mi's words.
Gao Ping looked at her with heartache. "Don't work too hard! With your current status, why do you work so hard? President Fu can give whatever you want to you!"
Fortunately, Si Mi's acting was good. She suppressed the urge to leave. Gao Ping's words made her feel disgusted. On the surface, she was praising Si Mi, but in reality, she was treating Si Mi like a canary in Fu Zhen's cage for him to enjoy!
"Fu Zhen also supports me! I think it's very meaningful..."
"Hmph! I don't know what's going on in your mind. What's so good about being an actress? Why don't you stay at home and cultivate the relationship with your husband first?!" Si Long put on his act of being considerate for Si Mi. In her previous life, he had told Si Mi the same thing!
Si Meng looked at him. "This is a career that I love! I want to do it!"
"Sis! Dad is saying it for your own good! Why are you..." Si Ling continued to speak, as if she disapproved of Si Meng's attitude, but she pretended not to dare to contradict her!
"I'm talking to my dad, so why are you interrupting? What does it have to do with you?" Si Meng retorted Si Ling!
Si Long looked at her and didn't say anything, because Si Mi had always been like this at home. She would always retort at Si Ling if she didn't like her conduct!
"I'm sorry! Sister!"
Si Yan was really afraid that Si Mi would directly shed all pretenses with them. "Enough! She can make her own decisions!"
Si Long only wanted to lecture her, but he didn't expect Si Mi to have such a big reaction. He cleared his throat. "Then you guys can sit for a while and leave after dinner."
Si Ling's aggrieved look was seen by Si Long. He sighed and thought that Si Mi was a little too aggressive! Si Ling wanted a bag a few days ago, so he would buy it for her!
Gao Ping kindly arranged for dinner. Si Mi really didn't want to stay here any longer, but Si Yan's goal hadn't been achieved yet. She also wanted to go back to her mother's room to take a look!
Si Yan followed Si Long to the study. Not long after, he walked out in a very bad mood and found Si Mi in the room. She was looking at photos of their family in the past.
The room was often cleaned by the housekeepers at home. It had been a long time since anyone had lived there, but it was clean and tidy! Sometimes, the details of Gao Ping's work were really admirable!
"He gave 10% of the company's shares to Gao Ping!"
Si Yan looked very angry because he felt that Si Long was really too biased!
"There's nothing to be angry about! Didn't you already expect it?" Si Mi wiped the photo paper and said to Si Yan.
"Did you know that the company's capital chain was short not long ago?"
Si Yan calmed down. "I know."
"Fu Zhen took action, and only then did things return to normal! He took over a very big project of the company. Our father doesn't dare to go too far! I won't agree to it!" Si Mi said.
Si Yan looked at her. "Fu Zhen told you all this?"
Of course, Fu Zhen didn't tell her. This was what happened after that. Fu Zhen didn't just do things for her on the surface. He did things for her in more ways than one! In her previous life, the Si family's company was supported by Fu Zhen!
Si Mi didn't say anything. Si Yan looked down. "Okay, I got it! As long as you know what you're doing it's fine! I don't mind, but I can't give it all to them!"
The woman's smile in the photo was so beautiful. Si Mi looked at her mother's face. Her tone was cold as she said, "It belongs to us, so how can I not care?!"

Si Mi was really uncomfortable during the meal. Gao Ping and Si Ling had been putting on airs and making her feel uncomfortable all over. Fortunately, Fu Zhen's call came at the right time, so Gao Ping couldn't stop her. She made an excuse to leave!
On the way back, her hand kept touching the photos in the bag beside her hand. She only came back to her senses when Lan Xin's call came in. There was a music video that needed to be recorded tomorrow afternoon. She agreed and asked Lan Xin a few more questions about Si Ling's art university.
Si Ling was one year younger than her and was still studying in school, but it was more useful for her to find a rich husband instead!
Fu Xing had the title of music production teacher in this school, so he had ties to Si Ling! She didn't know what Fu Xing's attitude towards Si Ling was now, but that didn't stop Si Mi from giving him some trouble!
After she got home and took a shower, Si Mi felt a little hungry. It was already past 10 o'clock, and she didn't have any self-awareness as a female celebrity. She snuck into the kitchen alone!
After Fu Zhen ended an international conference call, he saw Si Mi coming out of the kitchen with a bowl in her hands. He was standing on the stairs. "Didn't Auntie Sun leave you chicken soup?"
Si Mi didn't notice that Fu Zhen was looking at her and suddenly yelped. She was a little startled. "Ah!" Seeing that it was Fu Zhen, she took a deep breath, "I saw it. Chicken soup with rice!" Her bright eyes were sparkling. "Do you want to eat some?"
Fu Zhen made an exception for Si Mi again. He strolled down and Si Mi gave her a small bowl. The two of them actually ate a small portion of food together. "Were you startled just now?" Fu Zhen asked her.
Si Mi looked up at him. "No!"
"You have a guilty conscience for eating in the middle of the night!" It was very quiet, and Fu Zhen spoke more than usual. He was even teasing Si Mi.
Si Mi glanced at the bowl in his hand, and the corners of her mouth curled up. "Yeah! You should eat more too. Don't tell anyone!" They were clearly accomplices, and as she spoke, she reached out her spoon to feed him!
Fu Zhen looked at Si Mi. This woman seemed to have a deep obsession with feeding him, so he bent down to take it. "Sure!"
Si Mi laughed softly. Fu Zhen didn't expect himself to be so childish, and a smile appeared on his face!
After eating, Si Mi was satisfied and washed two bowls. When she turned around, Fu Zhen was still standing behind her. "What's wrong?"
Fu Zhen put his hands in his trouser pockets and turned around to leave. "Nothing! I'm just keeping watch for you!"
Si Mi smiled and pulled his arm. She was so happy. She had never known that Fu Zhen had such a cute side to him! "Wait for me. Let's retreat together!"
Fu Zhen immediately grabbed her hand and pulled her into his embrace. "Why were you unhappy when you came back today?" His tone was a little doting, but it wasn't obvious!
Si Mi obediently went into his embrace. The two of them hugged each other very intimately. "No," she said.
Fu Zhen raised his head slightly so that she could get closer to him. "You're not telling the truth!"
Si Mi raised her hand and hugged the man's broad back. Her face was close to where his heart was beating and she was listening to his heartbeat! She didn't expect that this sound had a magical power that could calm her down. "It's a family matter."
"Your stepmother..."
"Huh?" Si Mi raised her little head and looked up at him with her fair and slender neck. Fu Zhen also lowered his head to look at her. Her soft and fragrant long hair brushed past his exposed forearm!
Fu Zhen followed his instincts at that moment. He lowered his head and gently kissed her. The atmosphere was too good. Si Mi felt bewitched by the man. She slowly closed her eyes and opened her lips slightly as she began to respond to Fu Zhen's kiss!
After receiving Si Mi's response, Fu Zhen raised his hand to hold the back of her head. The woman's slender neck was in his hands, and everything seemed to be under his control!
The atmosphere gradually heated up. Fu Zhen's movements were no longer gentle. The bestial and controlling desire in the man's bones made him want to tear Si Mi apart and do her immediately!
