  Moreover, she had gotten into Si Zhengting’s car, but where was he now?

  The red wine was very rich, but she did not experience the grueling feeling of a hangover. Her body just felt weak and sore.

  She reached out her hand and started sweeping it on the bed, trying to look for her phone to check the time.

  However, she could not find it even after quite a while.

  Hence, she decided to lift up the blanket, step on the carpet bare-footed, and switch on the chandelier in the room.

  She had just gotten out of bed when she stopped in her tracks. Immediately, she turned her head to discover a figure standing on the balcony.

  Zhuang Nainai jumped up in shock, but she knew instantly: who would be able to enter the room other than him?

  She was thrilled at that moment as she quickly walked over.

  When she opened the glass door of the balcony, she was greeted by a gush of cold air, causing Zhuang Nainai to become wide awake and more alert.

  She paused for a moment before walking over.

  It was already late at night. The stars in the sky of the city of Beijing were covered by the haze, leaving the crescent moon hanging alone in the sky.

  Far away, the silhouette of the mountains was faintly discernible in the dark. The entire surrounding was very tranquil.

  Zhuang Nainai’s heart also became calm along with the surrounding.

  If certain things were capable of causing misunderstandings, they should be explained clearly.

  She looked ahead.

  Clad in a shirt and a pair of pants, Si Zhengting was looking at the front with his hands in his pockets. He had been standing there for God knows how long without moving an inch. His thin stature seemed to be so close to petrifying.

  Upon hearing the sounds coming from the door, he glanced in that direction coldly and continued to look ahead shortly after.

  Zhuang Nainai bit her lips and walked over.

  Amidst such a tranquil environment, she felt like her courage grew a little.

  Without the impeccable attire and the presence of bodyguards, the man in front of her, who was dressed in a white shirt and black pants, seemed like how he was five years ago.

  Zhuang Nainai followed his gaze and looked ahead.

  At that moment, both of them were silent.

  After a long time, Zhuang Nainai suddenly said, “I’m sorry about the gift. It’s my fault.”


  The silence had been broken. Zhuang Nainai realized it was actually not that difficult to say those words.

  Si Zhengting was actually not that aloof, and one could still communicate with him.

  Not caring about whether Si Zhengting was listening, she followed his gaze and looked outside, unaware that his body trembled slightly. Her lips curled up as she explained again obscurely, “I met your mother five years ago.”


  Upon saying this, she pressed her lips together. “She had done…… bad things to me, but I promised her that I would not tell you the specifics.”


  She recalled how the butler had been calling Ding Mengya secretly behind her back over the past few days and how the meeting with Ding Mengya had gone this time. She realized that she really did not make things difficult for her and even gave Su Yanbin’s number.

  She suddenly sighed.

  Regardless of the evil deeds that she had done, she was not disturbing her life right now.

  Zhuang Nainai would never come to like her, but it would be fine if they just continued to avoid each other.

  As she thought of this, Zhuang Nainai looked down. “We have agreed not to mention the unhappy things in the past.”


  Si Zhengting’s expression finally showed some changes. Did that mean that there was no need to determine who was right and who was wrong?

  He heaved a sigh of relief unknowingly.

  Even he himself only realized at this moment that he was actually a little scared that there would be a misunderstanding that could not be overcome between the mother-in-law and the daughter-in-law.

  He remained silent for a long time before asking, “Then, was she the reason you suddenly wanted to break up with me five years ago?”


  Upon hearing that question, Zhuang Nainai was taken aback.

  Was she the reason?

  Zhuang Nainai recalled her memories from five years ago in an instant.
