Miss Si's feigned innocence went too far, and the aloof Mr. Bo was easily swayed.

Si Yuan wondered if Bo Yusen would dream of her.

When she got home and heard laughter coming from next door, she felt less sad than before.

Even more surprisingly, I had a dreamless night and slept soundly.

With the bidding conference approaching, Xiang Mingche was extremely busy.

When the secretary said, "Miss Si is here," Xiang Mingche assumed it was Si Yingying again.

During this period, Si Yingying often came to see him, either to let him taste the cakes she made herself or to ask him to play games with her.

He wouldn't bother with them if it weren't for wanting to get his hands on the Si family.

Tell her I'm in a meeting.

Si Yingying has never been very patient, and knowing that he was busy in a meeting, she knew he would leave soon.

Once I get the [Prairie Fire] project, I can buy her some things to appease her.

Four o'clock in the afternoon.

Xiang Mingche finally stretched her muscles and bones. She glanced at her phone and saw that almost all of them were WeChat messages from Si Yingying.

Ah Yuan...

It seems like it's been a while since I sent him a WeChat message.

After hesitating for two seconds, Xiang Mingche sent Si Yuan a WeChat message: "Ah Yuan, what are you doing?"

Si Yuan quickly replied, "Are you done with your work?"

"I was thinking of you during a break."

Less than a minute after the message was sent back, there was a knock on the door.

"Come in."

The door was pushed open, and Xiang Mingche was stunned to see that the person who came in was Si Yuan, whom he had been longing for.

By the time she realized what was happening, she was already in front of Si Yuan. "Ah Yuan... is it really you? When did you get here?"

Si Yuan smiled slightly, "Good morning."

"What?"

Xiang Mingche then realized that the Miss Si that the secretary had mentioned that morning was Si Yuan.

"You...you didn't wait until now, did you?"

Even if Si Yuan didn't say it, Xiang Mingche knew that she would definitely keep waiting for him.

That's how much his Ah Yuan loved him.

Xiang Mingche looked at Si Yuan, a hint of guilt flashing in his eyes.

That damn secretary, why didn't she explain herself clearly?!

"Did you have meal?"

Si Yuan shook her head. "I originally wanted to wait for you to have lunch together, but you were too busy."

"Sorry, honey, I'll take you out to eat right away."

"If you're busy, that's okay..."

"Not busy, not busy..."

Xiang Mingche put his arm around his boss, Si Yuan's, shoulder. "My darling is the most important."

Si Yuan's eyes flickered slightly when she saw the document on the desk bearing the name of the "Prairie Fire" project.

Xiang Mingche took Si Yuan to a stomach-soothing soup shop.

They ordered all of Si Yuan's favorite dishes.

It's only been two days since I last saw A-Yuan, but it feels like an eternity.

"Ah Yuan, come on, eat some more."

Xiang Mingche was as attentive as ever, helping Si Yuan cook meat and serving her vegetables.

Si Yuan noticed the dark circles under his eyes and knew he had sacrificed a lot for the [Prairie Fire] project.

"Stop burning it for me, you can eat it yourself. Look how thin you've become."

Si Yuan's concern made Xiang Mingche feel very good.

No one could resist being loved wholeheartedly by a woman like Si Yuan.

Once he takes control of [Liaoyuan] and obtains the [Si family], he will give Ayuan everything that is most beautiful in the world.

"I've been a bit tired these past few days, but seeing you has completely recharged me."

Si Yuan sneered inwardly. She no longer believed anything Xiang Mingche said.

She asked, seemingly casually, "I just saw the bidding documents for [Liaoyuan] on your desk. Do you want [Liaoyuan]'s project?"

Xiang Mingche was taken aback, then smiled. "Yes, I've done a lot of preparation for this project. This time, I'm determined to win."

You can do it.

Si Yuan gave him plenty of confidence because she knew that Xiang Mingche would not succeed.

Si Yuan put down her chopsticks, her face showing melancholy.

"What's wrong?"

Si Yuan sighed, "Seeing how hard you're working, there's nothing I can do to help you."

Xiang Mingche's heart skipped a beat.

Look, this is the difference between A Yuan and Si Yingying.

A-Yuan would care about him and feel guilty for not being able to help him much.

Si Yingying would only blame him for being too busy, having nothing on his mind but work, and not having time to play with her.

Xiang Mingche subconsciously wanted to say: "You don't need to help me with anything. I'll take care of earning money to support the family, and you just need to be beautiful."

Before he could finish speaking, seeing Si Yuan's stunningly beautiful face and the noble air about him, Xiang Mingche changed his mind.

He held Si Yuan's hand tenderly, "Ah Yuan, why don't you come with me to the bidding meeting tomorrow?"

Even if Si Yuan is a fake heiress of the Si family, as long as the Si family doesn't kick her out, she is still the heiress of the Si family.

Taking her out not only makes him look good, but if any minor incidents happen, A-Yuan will also help him out.

In the past, Xiang Mingche disliked Si Yuan having to smile obsequiously at others, as he felt that it showed his incompetence.

He has now forgotten his original intentions and has begun to exploit Si Yuan.

But for Si Yuan, she had also achieved her goal.

"Me?"

"Yes, you are my lucky charm. With you by my side, I will definitely conquer [Wildfire]."

Si Yuan's smile widened. "Okay."

Lucky charm —

Ah, no—

It is a harbinger of disaster.

In order to prevent Si Yingying from causing trouble, Xiang Mingche spent most of the night coaxing her.

the next morning.

Xiang Mingche came to the Si family to pick up Si Yuan. Si Yuan had also dressed up specially, wearing an emerald green sweater dress and a white coat.

She has an outstanding temperament and looks beautiful in anything she wears.

Si Yingying gritted her teeth, but the thought of telling Xiang Mingche that he was just using Si Yuan made her feel much better.

"Brother Mingche, your sister is so beautiful, be careful she doesn't get snatched away if she goes out."

Si Yingying gave Ming Che a flirtatious look, but her words were sarcastic and unpleasant.

Xiang Mingche put his arm around his boss, Yuan's, shoulder. "My Yuan is someone no one can take away from me."

Xiang Mingche understands Si Yuan; on the surface, she seems to have no desires, but in reality, she is very soft-hearted and devoted.

Over the years, she has had no shortage of suitors from prominent families, but she has never even glanced at them.

He knew that she only had eyes for him, so he wasn't worried at all about being taken away by someone else.

Si Yuan looked at Si Qingwan, "Mom, we're leaving now."

Si Qingwan nodded. "You will be Mingche's good wife in the future. Do your best to support him."

"I know."

The two left hand in hand. He Shuqing watched their retreating figures and smiled at Si Qingwan, "Look how well-matched they are."

Si Qingwan nodded.

When Si Yingying heard this, she felt as if countless knives had been plunged into her chest; she was filled with resentment, bitterness, and heartache.

What a joke!

She and Mingche are a match made in heaven.

Out of sight, out of mind. Just as Si Yingying was about to go upstairs, Si Qingwan called out to her, "Yingying, how are things between you and Ninth Master Bo lately?"

"Ah... just... just like that..."

Si Yingying never went to see Master Bo again; she always exchanged places with Si Yuan.

Who knows what happened between Si Yuan and that Ninth Master Bo?

Si Qingwan frowned. "What do you mean by 'just like that'?"

Si Yingying felt a chill run down her spine under Si Qingwan's sharp gaze, and immediately said, "It's fine, Ninth Master Bo likes me quite a bit."

Si Yingying went over and took Si Qingwan's arm in a flattering manner, "Mom, don't worry, I will definitely win over Master Bo."
