Zuo Yiyi had said this before: no matter how hard Zhuang Nainai tried, she would never be able to fit into their world.

  Now, Zhuang Nainai finally understood the meaning behind her words.

  —


  They had remained silent for five minutes, but it felt like a century.

  Both of them exchanged glances. Although they did not say anything, they were confronting each other through their determined and stubborn gazes.

  At last, Zhuang Nainai suddenly felt like she was very ridiculous. She lowered her head and spoke again. “You aren’t saying anything, so I’ll take it that you agreeing to it.”


  After she finished speaking, she turned around and walked out.

  Her back was straight. The sadness that was written all over her was upsetting. Her messy footsteps initially became more and more stable as she landed her foot on the ground steadily with every step she took.

  Looking at her figure, Si Zhengting reached out with his hand subconsciously, as if to grab hold of something.

  He opened his mouth. He wanted to disagree with her and tell her that they could not break up. He even wanted to say that she could not act like this. However, he suppressed the urge to say all these words, which were at the tip of his tongue.

  Because, what’s the use of him saying all of that?

  Would they be able to patch things up? Would he tell her the truth about everything?

  As Si Zhengting thought of these things, heartlessness and uncertainty flashed across his eyes.

  Thereafter, he saw Zhuang Nainai stop by the door suddenly. Moments later, she looked back at Si Zhengting. “Can I visit the children often?”


  Her negotiating tone was charged with a sense of power that could not be underestimated. It seemed like Zhuang Nainai would probably go crazy if he turned her down.

  He nodded. She glanced at him one more time before striding off.

  Her figure resembled a graceful butterfly. Without looking at him, she walked past him. When she walked past him, he suddenly said, “I promise you that.”


  She froze for a moment. However, she only stopped for a while before she nodded lightly and left without turning back.

  Si Zhengting turned around and fixed his gaze on the door.

  The entire room was suddenly filled with an odd silence. The two medical staff were standing along the corridor on the second floor as they looked down quietly. Mr. Si clearly looked the same as usual, but why did the view of his back alone make one’s heart ache?

  Just as the two of them were pondering about this, Si Zhengting suddenly bent over and sat on the couch.

  Then, he lifted his hand and covered his eyes forcefully.

  Zhuang Nainai, you can’t leave me. Like I said before, I will not allow you to leave this relationship first.

  A warm substance streamed down his fingers. Confused, Si Zhengting looked up, only to see the water traces on his fingertips. He was slightly taken aback.

  —


  After Zhuang Nainai left the villa in a fit of pique, she finally dared to turn around and look toward the second floor with a gaze that could almost pierce through the walls so that she could see her twins.

  They were her children. They were her sons.

  Even though she had broken up with Si Zhengting, the two of them were still responsibilities they couldn’t shirk.

  At the thought of these, she lowered her head, turned around, and continued walking forward.

  While she was walking, tears flowed down her cheeks uncontrollably.

  After the breakup, she felt like she had lost her last emotional support in this world.

  She used her sleeve to wipe away her tears haphazardly before she continued walking.

  From behind, Huang Peidong followed her in a car. “Madam, please get in the car. I will send you back.”


  Zhuang Nainai shook her head. Extremely saddened, she said in a polite and distant manner, “It’s fine.”
