Chapter 29 The Abandoned Cat Effect

Chapter 29 The Abandoned Cat Effect

Si Yuan felt that perhaps this birthday party should never have been held in the first place.

She said it directly.

Song Yan was stunned.

He didn't know how disappointed Si Yuande must have been to feel that even a birthday party was a mistake.

He was somewhat speechless.

The call ended.

This was the first time Si Yuan had hung up first.

Many firsts happened today, and as they piled up, Song Yan gradually came to a clear answer in his mind.

Why does it feel like he and Si Yuan... are about to lose even their sibling relationship?

Or rather, from that day in high school, he was no longer a qualified older brother.

He handed the phone back to the bewildered Zhou Xiaoxiao and left alone.

——

Jiang Wang came in from outside and placed a paper bag on the table.

"Give it a try."

Si Yuan opened it and saw that it was a tie-dyed blue long dress.

Si Yuan was wearing Jiang Wang's pajamas, which were so big that it looked like she was wrapped up in them.

"I have clothes..."

He casually added honey to his milk and said, "I threw away your clothes and jewelry from last night."

His tone was casual and carefree.

Si Yuan slightly widened her eyes.

Jiang Wang took a sip, then looked at her: "What's wrong? You were the one crying and saying 'I don't want anything from the Song family anymore,' and I'll help you."

When he spoke of what Si Yuan had said, he even imitated it vividly.

Si Yuan's face flushed red.

These words were spoken in despair and sadness at the time, but now they sound like something out of a melodramatic coming-of-age novel…

She silently picked up the bag, bowed to thank them, and hurriedly slipped into the bedroom.

——

Song Yan was driving alone, unsure of where to go.

After leaving the Song family last night, my parents kept calling me.

Lin Shuangyu sent dozens of messages.

But he was too lazy to look at it, and too lazy to care.

He had been obedient for over twenty years, doing whatever his parents told him to do.

His mother said she hoped he would settle down soon, and that the girl with a good personality who was always in the yoga class was nice. So she became his girlfriend, and they were about to get engaged.

The mother was unaware that Lin Shuangyu had bullied Si Yuan in the past.

Song Yan didn't know exactly how outrageous it was, but Si Yuan's personality changed drastically during her senior year of high school.

One day he came back and saw that his sister's room was almost empty, and he realized that she had been sent away.

Just as quietly as when they were brought in.

Song Yan once read a story in a psychology book about someone who adopted a kitten not out of kindness or because they liked kittens, but to perform kindness.

But if one day the kitten scratches their beloved sofa or spills the cream in the cupboard, they will not hesitate to throw the kitten away.

At that time, he felt that Si Yuan was like that little cat.

Her sister ended up being just an abandoned cat.

Although the kitten came back a few months ago.

However, due to the "abandoned cat effect," even if a kitten is brought back, it will be treated with great care, fearing that it will be abandoned again.

But last night, he became that kind of person too, and threw her away.

Can a cat be abandoned twice?

Song Yan's heart inevitably ached whenever he thought of these things.

If it weren't for Lin Shuangyu, what kind of girl would he have chosen to marry?

He didn't know.

Before Lin Shuangyu, he never fantasized about marriage.

Whenever he thinks about these things, he thinks of his little sister, and no one in the world is more lovable than her.

But now, the kitten has become sharp.

They ran off with someone else.

Si Yuan, being so obedient, would never follow anyone else willingly; her heart always revolves around herself.

The only possibility is that someone stole her.

——

Jiang Wangming issued a clear order, waving his hand to grant Si Yuan a week of paid leave.

Si Yuan took advantage of these few days to plan how to sever ties with the Song family.

Her first priority was to pay off the child support payments owed to the Song family.

From the age of ten to twenty-four, the Song family has spent a great deal of money on her upbringing over the years.

But if you really calculate it, it's not that difficult.

When the Si family fell on hard times, all their assets were auctioned off by the Song family, including the company's shares, which naturally fell into the Song family's hands. Although it was just a small company, it was more than enough to cover the Song family's upkeep expenses over the years.

As long as we move out of the villa the Song family gave us in the next few days and settle our tuition fees for the past few years in London, everything will be settled.

It turns out that severing ties with family isn't such a troublesome thing.

Perhaps it was because the Song family was not closely related to him.

After this, without her father, mother, and brother, Si Yuan felt a bittersweet feeling in her heart.

But if she left Song Yan and Lin Shuangyu, she wouldn't be in so much pain anymore.

Si Yuan kept the list and prepared to send it back to the Song family.

I hope everything goes well.

She had just stood up when her head suddenly bumped into something.

Two painful screams rang out.

She covered her head.

Jiang Wang covered his chin.

The two men glared at each other with eyes blazing with fury.

What are you doing standing behind me?

Jiang Wang was in so much pain that he forgot all about his haughty image and almost collapsed to the ground: "Why did you suddenly look up?"

Si Yuan rubbed his head: "Who knew you were standing behind me?"

"I just wanted to see what you were secretly writing this time..."

Si Yuan was speechless.

Jiang Wang pressed his chin, somewhat helplessly: "Does it hurt a lot?"

Si Yuan paused for a moment, then realized it was nothing.

"Don't worry, I hurt my head many times in high school and it's covered in calluses. I'll be fine."

Her intention was to make a joke about herself.

But Jiang Wang didn't laugh.

He didn't find it funny.

Si Yuan had suffered many head injuries in the past. When those people bullied her, they were ruthless and didn't hurt her completely, they just made her feel pain.

He didn't say anything more, then suddenly stepped forward and pressed her back into her seat.

He placed his palm on the top of her head and began to massage gently and slowly.

Si Yuan felt it was unnecessary.

But she could never win against Jiang Wang.

He comes here every day, doesn't he need to take care of his other girlfriends?

However, Si Yuan thought again that with his face and his net worth, there was no need to worry too much about him.

——

A week later, Si Yuan returned to the company.

Chen Mo was smarter this time.

Before striking up a conversation, he looked left and right to make sure there were no more obstacles in his path before finally reaching Si Yuan's workstation.

"I heard it was your birthday last week. Why didn't you tell me sooner? I'm taking Tina's advice. I'll treat you to dinner. How about you do me the honor of coming this time?"

Si Yuan truly admires people who can't understand good or bad words.

Just as she was about to find a reason to reject him, Tina suddenly floated over from the side, looking rather unwell.

"Xiaoyuan, I have a meeting with the client of the new project site this afternoon. Could you go for me? I'm not feeling well."

Tina clutched her lower abdomen, her face pale.

Si Yuan immediately understood and nodded in agreement.

She also needed a reason to reject Chen Mo.

She looked at Chen Mo and shrugged: "See? We're just not compatible, we can't seem to get together."

After saying that, he got up and followed Tina to organize the materials needed for the afternoon.

Si Yuan was about to go downstairs with the boss when she suddenly saw Jiang Wang's car upstairs.
