As soon as Jiang Hexi returned to the villa, she took Si Xiao into her cloakroom.

In the luxurious space of nearly 100 square meters, evening gowns from major luxury brands are neatly displayed, priceless necklaces are placed in fingerprint lock jewelry boxes, high heels are neatly stacked on the shoe cabinets, and the glass display cases are filled with top luxury collection bags.

Si Xiao was shocked by this unimaginable wealth. She calmed down and her mood calmed down.

From among the many dresses, she picked out a light gold sequined halter dress for Jiang Hexi to wear, then opened her makeup box and began to put makeup on both of them.

After trying on her makeup, Jiang Hexi was quite satisfied with the look in the mirror. She asked at the right moment, "Is there any water here?"

Yu Xiangwan glanced at the dressing table and said, "No, if you want water, go downstairs to get it."

Seeing that it was inconvenient for them to move around, Si Xiao took the initiative to say, "I'll go downstairs and get you some water."

Jiang Hexi watched her leave, and before he could put away the smile on his face, he was caught by Yu Xiangwan:

"From the first time you looked at Si Xiao, I felt that something was wrong with you. Tell me the truth, what's going on?"

"I—will—come—to—sister-in-law—" Jiang Hexi pointed in the direction of the door.

Yu Xiangwan forgave her for hiding it, and came closer to her and said, "Tell me what's going on."

When the two of them huddled together and gossiped quietly, Si Xiao had already reached the stairs.

She came down from the second floor and unexpectedly bumped into Jiang Wen Ze who was going upstairs.

One of them was walking with his head down, while the other was walking up the stairs calmly, and they passed each other.

Jiang Wenze suddenly stood on the steps and asked her coldly:

"How did you find my home?"

"Mr. Jiang, don't get me wrong. I'm the stylist hired by Miss Jiang to prepare her makeup for the charity dinner. My coming here has nothing to do with you." Si Xiao replied coldly.

Jiang Wenze still insisted, "Do you know who gives most of Ah Xi's money?"

Si Xiao was silent and said, "Could it be that Mr. Jiang is the one who is spending the money?"

"Just be clear in your mind. Be more polite to your sponsor next time."

Jiang Wen Ze threw down these bland words and went upstairs without looking back.

After Si Xiao went downstairs to get some water, she returned to the cloakroom, packed her makeup box and prepared to go back.

Jiang Hexi tried his best to persuade her to stay, saying, "Sister Xiaoxiao, since you are here, how can you leave without having dinner? If my mother knew about this, she would scold me for not being hospitable."

Si Xiao declined: "I still have things to deal with at the company. Let's have dinner together next time."

Yu Xiangwan forcefully took away her makeup box and refused to give it back to her no matter what. "It doesn't matter if you spend a little time like that. I'll give it back to you after you have dinner."

Si Xiao had no choice. In their territory, they had the final say.

For dinner for seven people, Ms. Zhou asked Mrs. Song to prepare a table full of fifteen dishes.

Si Xiao put her makeup box at the elevator entrance and walked into the living room. She saw that the dining table was full of people, with only an empty chair next to Jiang Wen Ze.

"Sister Xiaoxiao, come over and have dinner." Jiang Hexi waved at her actively.

Si Xiao hurried over and sat down. She apologized, "Sorry, I'm late."

"Miss Si, you are too polite. You are the guest invited by Ah Xi, so it is only right that we wait for you."

Ms. Zhou greeted her warmly, "Wanwan, Miss Si, come and try these Cantonese dishes to see if they suit your taste."

Everyone at the table started to eat.

Jiang Hexi sat between Si Xiao and Yu Xiangwan, always taking care of their tastes. She kept using serving chopsticks to help them pick up food, and she kept joking and laughing during the meal, not letting the atmosphere get dull.

In contrast, Jiang Wen Ze was much more indifferent. He occasionally said a word or two during the meal, but most of the time he ate in silence.

After dinner, Yu Xiangwan accompanied Si Xiao to the elevator to get her makeup box.

Jiang Hexi tried to speak: "Brother, Sister Xiaoxiao didn't drive here, can you take her back?"

Jiang Wenze looked at her expressionlessly and said, "You won't send me off?"

Jiang Hexi poked his finger awkwardly, "I have to accompany Wanwan, I can't get away."

She saw Si Xiao pushing the makeup box out the door, gently shook his arm and said, "Brother, just do me a favor, please."

Jiang Wen Ze looked like he had no way to deal with her. He picked up the car keys on the coffee table and walked out with his long legs.

Jiang Hexi looked at his back and was really impressed by him. He didn't even take the step forward, but waited until the step was handed to him before he could take it down.

"Sister Xi," Yu Xiangwan stood behind her, "Are you sure you're not making things worse?"

Jiang Hexi said confidently, "My brother is such a smart man, how could he not know what tricks I am playing? I am just using my own tricks against him."

Yu Xiangwan sighed, "You two brothers and sisters are really of the same character, you both care too much about face."

Si Xiao called an online taxi and stood at the door of the villa waiting for the car to arrive.

The door behind her opened and a Cullinan stopped quietly in front of her.

Jiang Wenze pushed open the car door and walked straight to Si Xiao. He took the makeup box from her hand, pulled it to the back of the car without saying anything, and put it directly into the trunk.

"Hey, what are you doing with my things?"

Si Xiao immediately got angry, "I called an online taxi to come over, so you don't have to go there in person."

Jiang Wenze locked the trunk and said, "Get in the car."

Si Xiao was forced to cancel the online taxi order. She sat in the passenger seat with a lot of anger, with a cold face and nothing to say to him.

Jiang Wenze looked at the road ahead and asked her, "Miss Si, where do you live?"

Si Xiao was angry and didn't want to talk to him.

He quipped while steering the wheel: "If you don't say anything, I'll take you to my place."

She gritted her teeth and replied, "The old place."

"Where is the old place? Do you really think I still remember where you live?"

"Room 13, Building 9, Tangtingyuan, No. 602, Keelung Street," she said sarcastically, "Is this clear enough now, Mr. Jiang?"

He remained silent.

The two of them drove in silence along the way. The luxury car successfully drove to a stop outside the old residential area and parked steadily on the side of the road.

Si Xiao walked to the rear of the car and took out a makeup case from the trunk. She lifted the handle and looked up to see Jiang Wen Ze standing on the side of the road waiting for her.

"Mr. Jiang, you can't park randomly here, or you'll get a ticket from the traffic police."

“Am I the kind of person who can’t pay a ticket?”

Jiang Wen Ze took her makeup case, picked up the handle, and strode forward.

Si Xiao panicked for a moment and chased after him, saying, "I don't need you to take me up, just drive away quickly."

"I remember there's no elevator in this neighborhood. It's on the sixth floor. This box is really heavy. Are you sure you can carry it up?"

Jiang Wenze looked at her thin arms and legs suspiciously, and Si Xiao said with a firm look, "Sure."

"Then why did you tell me your room number?"

He asked her aggressively, "If you don't want me to help you carry the boxes up, then is there any other meaning?"

This one sentence made her blush.

The two of them went upstairs one after the other.

As soon as Jiang Wen Ze arrived at the floor, Si Xiao snatched the makeup box from him.

She took out the key, unlocked the door, pushed the box in, and slammed the door shut. She did it all in one go, fearing that he would misunderstand that she was inviting him in.

Jiang Wen Ze looked at the door that slammed shut in front of him and was speechless.
