After three rounds of chess with Grampy, she had indeed lost thoroughly. Although Grampy didn’t make her lose too badly, she was still not very happy and acted like a defeated rooster that was totally unable to be cheered up.

By the time Si Yiyan got to the hospital, she was sprawled over the tea table, desolated and trying to figure out just why did she lose to Grampy every time.

A smile flashed past Si Yiyan’s eyes. “Grampy came by just now?”

After they received their marriage certificate, he had officially started calling him Grampy.

Wen Xinya said in a depressed tone, “He still defeated me in three games in a row.”

She had already been losing to Grampy for more than ten years and didn’t know when would she defeat him once.

Si Yiyan fondled her head and consoled her. “It’s nothing. Next time, I’ll defeat him for you.”

His gaze landed on the vase nearby, on the gorgeous crepe myrtle flowers, paused for a moment, and looked away.

Wen Xinya was indeed very happy.

Si Yiyan pretended to ask leisurely, “The crepe myrtle flowers are pretty.”

Wen Xinya’s focus had been placed on the chessboard all the while. She said mildly, “Yup. Senior Zhong gave them to me.”

“Although Zhong Rufeng didn’t participate in Plan S, he has contributed significantly in terms of collaborating with the government. After the conclusion of Plan S, he’ll probably have significant advancements in politics.”

As a man, Si Yiyan actually admired Zhong Rufeng.

Wen Xinya placed the white chess piece in her hand into the chess barrel and said with a half-smile, “Oh, is that so? Then I should really congratulate him on another day.”

Under her inquisitive gaze, Si Yiyan was extremely calm. “Why don’t we treat him to a meal as husband and wife? To congratulate him for his bright future and also to thank him for taking care of you over the years.”

“I think it’s more sincere to leave this meal to the wedding banquet.”

The thickness of Si Yiyan’s skin was simply impressive—he obviously had an ulterior motive in treating Zhong Rufeng to a meal.

They had obtained their wedding certificate and were even pregnant, and he was still holding a grudge towards Zhong Rufeng—Wen Xinya was thoroughly speechless.

“Yup, anything that my Lady says.” Si Yiyan’s faint smile was in agreement with her words.

Actually, the reason behind him holding a grudge towards Zhong Rufeng all this while was not because he was close friends with Xinya but something else.

He had all along known that there was a junior that Old Mr. Mo admired very much, and that was Zhong Rufeng. That was why previously, when he chanced upon Xinya and Zhong Rufeng’s photo on the discussion forum of Lan Feng Institute, he conceived a strong sense of danger, immediately put down the work in his hands, and returned to the country.

Indeed, although Old Mr. Mo’s intention of matchmaking Xinya and Zhong Rufeng wasn’t obvious, it couldn’t escape the witty Si Yiyan.

Old Mr. Mo was more than happy to see Zhong Rufeng together with Xinya.

However, Old Mr. Mo had been trying to find fault with him.

Obviously, in Old Mr. Mo’s heart, he preferred Zhong Rufeng.

It was a matter concerning male pride.

Yup, as a man, Si Yiyan would never admit that he bothered him quite a bit.

Wen Xinya couldn’t help but giggle out loud. He’s so evil even when he’s jealous. Mr. Xiasi, you’re indeed a well-cultivated villain!

Si Yiyan was still very calm towards her obvious teasing.
