Chapter 674: Chapter 674: Warmth

“Initially, their target was me, but as I was in labor and, was subsequently followed by a considerable number of maids and women-servants, they could not act. So it was delayed again and again. Unfortunately, when they saw Di Ying being separated from the crowd, they changed their target.”

Liu Sisi’s eyes began to redden.

“Yuan Mengbai indeed deserves to die!”

Di Yelei gritted his teeth and was very dispirited: “But Ruo Ning…after all, is my younger sister. Once Meng Bai is brought to justice, what should we do about Ruo Ning’s intermittent madness? On the one hand, she is my sister and I have to think about her future. On the other hand, she’s my daughter, and I…”

Liu Sisi naturally could understand Di Yelei’s dilemma, and remained silent.

He couldn’t ignore the predicament of gaining one thing but losing another.

“Ah! Actually, I don’t know how to deal with this matter either. Today, I went to see my dad and talked to him about this…”

Then, he told Liu Sisi about his conversation with Elderly Mr. Di.

As their eyes met, both were left speechless for a while.

“Given our relationship, it won’t be appropriate for us to intervene directly. So, I think it’s best we let dad handle this matter. The final outcome will depend on what he decides.”

Liu Sisi remained silent for a while, and then nodded: “That sounds good…”

This would save Yelei from being torn between two tough choices.

“Recently, there’s been no shortage of troubles, and none of them are going smoothly.”

Di Yelei rubbed his forehead. A wave of exhaustion rose up from his heart.

“What’s wrong? Why are you suddenly so emotional?”

Liu Sisi turned over from the other side, naturally reached out to his forehead, and lightly pressed on the acupuncture points there: “Come on, let me help you with a massage, which can help relieve the stress.”

“You know how to massage?” Di Yelei chuckled, shaking his head.

Liu Sisi proudly raised an eyebrow: “Of course, I’ve learned it before!”

She had learned from her dorm roommate who was very good at massage, and soon, everyone in the dorm was learning from her. Now, she found an opportunity to showcase her talent, reminding herself of the skills she’d learned.

“Really, when did you learn it?”

Di Yelei was indeed surprised!

Liu Sisi quickly changed her story: “Oh! I mean, I’ve seen the acupressure chart at Old He’s place and made a point of learning it. Today, I can put it into practice on you.”

“Is that so!”

Di Yelei burst into hearty laughter, discarded his doubts, and closed his eyes to enjoy the massage, unconcerned about being Sisi’s guinea pig.

Strange to say, Sisi’s technique was really good. After a short while of massaging, his muscles relaxed, and he was feeling so comfortable that he was on the verge of falling asleep.

He enjoyed the experience, but Liu Sisi was panting with exhaustion after performing a full set of massage moves.

However, seeing that Di Yelei had already fallen asleep, she couldn’t help but smile.

“I was going to have you massage me back, but never mind! I’ll let you off today! Go to sleep!” She playfully slapped him.

With a dizzying rush, before she understood what was happening, she was pinned underneath Di Yelei.

Holding her gaze with his mesmerizing eyes, the suppressed flame in his eyes flared up for a moment before returning to clarity. He looked at her intently with his clear eyes, his lips curling into a smirk.

“You want your husband to massage you? Your command is my wish, Madam!” He stretched a hand towards her…

Liu Sisi’s heart pounded and her cheeks flushed. She instinctively lifted her hand to resist, wanting to refuse.
