Wen Xinya held up his hand again and looked at his hand with the IV drip, but she didn't know that the needle had been pulled out long ago. She became even more nervous: "You... why did you pull it out?"
She was a little annoyed.
Si Yiyan knew she was worried, so he whispered to comfort her, "It's just an anti-inflammatory drip. It doesn't matter whether you give it in the morning or in the evening. There's nothing to worry about. Don't worry."
She bit her lip and wanted to blame him, but she couldn't bear it. Everything that happened just now was also due to her reluctance to accept. To put it bluntly... it was also her fault. She whispered, "I'll call a doctor to check you out."
Si Yiyan laughed: "It's just a small matter, why bother so much."
As he spoke, he had already picked up the needle, inserted it into the vein on the back of his hand, and fixed it with tape.
His movements were skillful, but it made her feel even more sad.
Wen Xinya wrapped her hands around his neck and whispered, "Si Yiyan, I'm sorry!"
She admitted that everything she did in the Grand Duke's Palace today was ill-considered, whether it was teaching Anatoly a lesson or the horse racing with Aurora, each of them seemed to be calculated exactly by her and she achieved her goals in the end, but in fact, each of them was based on her selfish motives.
She had known Si Yiyan's identity and background for a long time, but she still felt uneasy and shocked when she was personally involved.
What caught her eye was the so-called system of hierarchy, the rule of the aristocracy, and the rights of the aristocracy. All of these were areas she had never set foot in or even understood. This was the real place of power and intrigue.
For the first time, she realized the gap between herself and Si Yiyan. It was a distance as high as a mountain. This mismatch made her flustered.
She was not good at scheming and playing with people's hearts.
So she doubted herself for the first time. Could she really be Lucifer's mistress? Could she really stand shoulder to shoulder with Si Yiyan
At this moment, Aurora appeared, the most beautiful woman in Country E and the princess of Duke Moville's Mansion. All these titles made Aurora feel proud and superior when facing her.
At that moment, she realized how weak she was. She kept comparing herself to Aurora in her heart. She found that apart from being able to talk about love with Si Yiyan and even have sex with him, she could not provide any help to Si Yiyan at all.
Anxiety, doubt, fear and confusion made her no longer herself.
She punished Anatoly and wanted to stand up for Si Yiyan to prove that she was not Si Yiyan's vassal or weakness, and that she was also capable of helping Si Yiyan and defending the authority of the man she loved.
Grand Duke Moville looked down on her, so she tried to please him, worked with Si Yiyan, and played tricks on him, just to tell him that she was not a vase who relied on her body to get to the top.
Aurora used those noble ladies to humiliate her, but she didn't take it to heart. What really angered her was that Aurora actually coveted Lucifer's Mistress Necklace, which Si Yiyan personally gave her. Her intentions towards Si Yiyan were obvious. She was not a good person and would never allow anyone to covet her man.
So she deliberately proposed to use the documents as a bet, and tried every means to plot against Aurora, hoping to make Aurora embarrassed in public and become a laughing stock in the aristocratic circle.
As a result, she didn't expect Aurora to really bring the document. At that moment, her excitement was almost evident on her face. She was determined to get the document. Aurora was right. She really wanted to use this document to please Si Yiyan and prove... that she was not useless to him.
The words she said during the confrontation with Aurora were like swords piercing her heart. She had no way of denying that what Aurora said was the truth.
As a girlfriend, there was not much she could do for Si Yiyan. Usually, it was Si Yiyan who pampered and protected her. As Lucifer's future mistress, she could not do anything for Si Yiyan either. This frustrated feeling made her extremely uncomfortable.
Although she apologized for no reason, Si Yiyan knew what she meant: "Xinya, you are not wrong. I am the one who is wrong. I... underestimated you. You are never as shallow as I thought you were. You are smart, know your limits, know when to advance and when to retreat, know the pros and cons, and have quite powerful scheming and overall perspective. You are never someone who should be protected under my wings."
He took her to the banquet hosted by Grand Duke Moville. On the one hand, he had selfish motives, and on the other hand, he was hesitant. However, he forgot that the girl he liked, even though she was still very weak, her heart was strong enough to be comparable to his.
Faced with Anatoly's behavior of using the little boy from Country Z to openly slap someone in the face, she handled it with ease, making Anatoly lose more than he gained. Faced with the Grand Duke's contempt, she maneuvered and always made Grand Duke Moville suffer a setback. Faced with Aurora's provocation, she showed her scheming and went straight for it, giving Aurora a fatal blow, and finally escaped unscathed, taking the entire Grand Duke's Mansion into account.
All of this was certainly backed by his deployment, but it was also inseparable from her scheming and tactics.
This girl is not only the one he will hold hands with and grow old with.
She is also a woman who can share his honor and disgrace.
He shouldn't underestimate her, he should believe in her, no matter what she does, he just needs to protect her.
"How can I be as good as you say?" Wen Xinya was stunned, staring at the man in front of her. His face was tinged with lust, his eyebrows were beautiful and elegant like a painting, his face was gorgeous and charming, making this man look even more charming.
Si Yiyan said: "I know whether it is good or not!"
Xu Xianghu seems funny, but he is actually very defensive. Yue Ze seems stupid, but he is actually the smartest. Gu Yuehan seems cold, but he is actually the proudest. His most capable subordinate went from being wary and scrutinizing of her to approving her, and now to agreeing with her. Maybe she doesn't know it, but as a bystander, he sees it very clearly.
To judge whether a person is powerful, it is not measured by money, existing status and identity. First of all, it is the heart, then the quality, and then the scheming and strategy, because once you have these, money, wealth, status and power are just a matter of time.
Wen Xinya was speechless.
Si Yiyan looked at her and said meaningfully, "Xinya, Lucifer's mistress doesn't need strong military force, nor does she need a strong background, but she must have scheming and tactics, as well as strategy and bearing. You have done a great job in this regard!"
Ever since he entered the Grand Duke's Mansion, he had been sensitive to her emotional changes. After sleeping in the same bed for so long, their souls collided and merged every night, so he knew what she was thinking. That was why he indulged in all her actions. It was just that the clerical matter was a little beyond his expectations, so he reacted so violently.
Compared with her, Aurora is far behind in both scheming and strategy.
