《Remember Self-Control: Bossy Husband Loves Me Deep to Soul》C48. The Welcoming Banquet
Advertisement
Finally, the day had come for her to leave the hospital. She was sick of the smell of disinfectant fluid even though there were fresh flowers in her ward every day.
She still believed that home was the sweetest place.
Opening the window, she took a deep breath of fresh air with a sweet smile.
In the car following right behind, Gong Siming quietly watched the woman who was always following her. It turned out she could be so attractive.
“Hua Er, head for the sanatorium.”
Gong Siming suddenly thought of Feng Ling, who had been sealed in his memory for a long time, and felt guilty. But except his guilt, there were no other feelings.
Si Wan didn’t notice what was happening behind her, for her attention was drawn by how things were turning for the better!”
“I’m back!”
She shouted out loud. Si Huating responded with a smile full of concern.
In the Si’s villa, Gong Yiyuan had been waiting outside with Gong Yanchen and Yan Xiuya. They were about to hold a banquet to celebrate Si Wan’s return.
Because Gong Siming excused himself from coming, Gong Yiyuan had been cold to Gong Yanchen and Yan Xiuya along the way.
There were no exaggerating or extravagant decorations. Gong Yiyuan heard Si Wan used to like collecting bladed weapons, so he snatched a few from Gong Siming for her.
Their trip here was not only to celebrate Si Wan’s return, but more importantly, to sound her out.
They would fully respect whatever decision she was about to make. Even so, they wanted to strive for the insensible Gong Siming one last time.
The relationship between the two families had always been tight. Feeling as if she was home, Yan Xiuya was busy instructing the hourly workers.
Since Si Huating and Si Wan were the only ones left in the Sis, few servants were hired. Only four or five veterans who had been following them for decades and their offspring were there.

Yan Xiuya orderly arranged everything. Watching his capable wife, Gong Yanchen couldn’t hide the pride on his face and never cared about people calling him a henpecked husband.
When the meal was just ready, Si Wan and Si Huating walked in.
Si Wan hadn’t expected the Gongs would come, which resulted in the imperceptible surprised look on her face.
With a smile, Si Wan looked at Si Huating with grievance. She seemed to be blaming him for not telling her beforehand, and now she was caught unprepared.
As an oversensitive woman, Yan Xiuya captured the slight change of Si Wan’s countenance.
“Si Wan, how do you feel about this banquet we prepared for you ?”
Her face lit up with affection.
After this incident, Yan Xiuya grew even fonder of Si Wan.
After she woke up, she said nothing against Gong Siming. Instead, she took all the blame herself.
She only said any man would be infuriated, the blame was on her and she was too stubborn to explain.
No one would dislike a girl like Si Wan, not to mention that she was excellent in all aspects!
The more she looked at her, the more reluctant she was to let her go.
Si Wan hadn’t expected that Yan Xiuya would be intimate to her and was even nicer than before.
“I really like it, thank you!”
Replied Si Wan politely as she didn’t want to be delusional as she used to.
Her reply made Gong Yiyuan and Yan Xiuya anxious.
This kid was trying to distance herself from all this.
“My girl, come to Grandpa, let me take a good look at you.”
To alleviate the embarrassment, Gong Yiyuan called Si Wan over.
Regardless of the others’ attitudes, Gong Yiyuan had always been nice to Si Wan and worried a lot about her relationship with Gong Siming.
What was more, when she was hospitalized, the old man had been keeping her company for days, and his hair became even grayer.

With great joy, she jumped to Gong Yiyuan.
“Grandpa!”
With a beaming smile, Si Wan called him in a sweet voice.
When she called him grandpa in the past, she had never been as relaxed as she was at the moment.
“Ah, good girl, Grandpa was worried you would break off all relations with me!” Said Gong Yiyuan with a bitter voice.
“I would never do that! Grandpa have always been nice to Si Wan, and I will never forget that.”
Seeing his granddaughter call another man grandfather and act like his spoiled child, Si Huating was very jealous.
He spoke with grievance.
“A married granddaughter is like spilled water, and grandpa has to live a solitary life in the remaining years.”
As his grievance echoed in all the ears, people couldn’t help tittering. Senior Si was indeed a jealous man with sour remarks.
“Yuck, nonsense, you are still young. If grandpa ever bring that up again, I’ll moved out and live in the company!”
Hearing those words from his granddaughter, Si Huating hastened to put on a smile.
Gong Yiyuan was pleased at the sight of Si Huating’s frustration and couldn’t help bickering with him.
Amid the bickers of the two seniors, the sweet banquet came to a happy ending.
Only one person came here with a mission. Since the three men were chatting happily with each other, Yan Xiuya and Si Wan sat by the window for some privacy.
“Si Wan, the position of our director is still reserved for you.”
Yan Xiuya tried to sound Si Wan out. With composure, the old lady watched Si Wan’s reaction.
“Um, chairman, I’ll pack up and return to the company the day after tomorrow.”
Yan Xiuya understood Si Wan’s estrangement.
“As for Ming…”
Before she finished, they heard Gong Yiyuan calling them over.
They looked at each other with a grudging smile and walked over.
Six daggers brought over by him were placed neatly on the table. As soon as Si Wan saw them, the light of surprise glinted in her eyes.
Gong Yiyuan was delighted at Si Wan’s response.
“Gong Siming asked me to bring them to you. He is too busy to come over!”
Although Si Wan knew the truth, she was not willing to break the heart of the old man. Therefore, she replied happily.
“I like them very much, grandpa, please pass on my gratitude to him.”
Instantly, the mighty Senior Cadre Gong began acting like a mean child.
“That’s not enough, you need to tell him yourself.”
In desperation, she looked at the old man and then Gong Siming’s parents whose faces lit up with expectations. Si Wan couldn’t bear to make some unrelenting remarks against them.
“Okay, when I go to the company the day after tomorrow, I’ll thank him in person, how does that sound?”
She replied in a helpless tone as if she was comforting a child.
It seemed Si Wan was quite determined to live in her own house. Alas, maybe the couple could take the time to calm down and sort things out.
They stayed there for a long time, and Gong Yiyuan was reluctant to return home. Since the old man couldn’t be persuaded, he was allowed to stay in Si’s house for a couple of days. When the old man heard he could stay, he was overjoyed!
Si Huating, however, put on a grim face. He had thought finally he got a chance to spend some quality time with his granddaughter, until this uninvited guest appeared.
At the thought of facing Gong Siming the day after tomorrow, she couldn’t help but shiver.
