Si Zhengting was agitated by this. He violently grabbed Zhuang Nainai’s wrist and said,
So, the reason you left me wasn’t because you didn’t like me, but because you thought that I didn’t like you anymore?

Zhuang Nainai bit her lips.
Isn’t that the case?

Si Zhengting stared at her, an inexplicable feeling rising in his heart. The emotional unease he had been feeling for the past five years… was all because of a misunderstanding?
He stood where he was, stunned.
He couldn’t tell whether he was supposed to feel happy or sad.


Happy because her feelings for him had never changed, sad because she had not trusted him… which caused them to be where they were today.
His dumbstruck state made Zhuang Nainai feel a little guilty. Taking a step back, she looked at him.
What’s wrong with you?

What was wrong with him?
His heart had been hurting for the past five years of their youth.
If not for the misunderstanding, would they have been married by now? Would they have had a child together by now?
All of a sudden, Si Zhengting grabbed her arm.
Nainai, let’s not fight anymore, okay?

To put the past behind them, truly, once and for all, and to live their best lives.
But this was not the first time he was saying this.
Zhuang Nainai looked at him, unsure of both her feelings as well as what to say.
She wanted to put everything behind her too, but the issue with Ding Mengya was like a thorn, stuck right between them where it mattered most. The nearer they got to each other, the deeper the thorn went.


All their misunderstandings and distrust had their roots in Ding Mengya.
Zhuang Nainai lifted her head and resolutely asked,
Then do you believe that it was your mother who had my mother run over by a car?

This made Si Zhengting curl his lips.
Ding Mengya sending someone to run over her mother?
He didn’t believe it.
He had grown up with Madam Ding, and he was clear as to what kind of a person she was.
Si Zhengting curled his lips, then slowly said,
Nainai, let’s put the past behind us and live well together from now on, okay?


No.
Zhuang Nainai answered him, crisp and direct.
I’m really bothered by this issue.

As she said this, she pointed toward her heart.
For as long as this matter is unresolved and I’m not given a fair explanation, it’ll bother me.

Si Zhengting furrowed his brows and stayed silent.


Zhuang Nainai looked at him, her gaze lowering in disappointment. Then, she picked up her luggage, turned around, and walked away.
Si Zhengting stuck out his arm, wanting to hold her back, but then suddenly thought of what she had said about wanting respect…
Damn this idea of respect!
Si Zhengting clenched his fists together as he watched her silhouette disappear into the crowd in front of him…
—
Zhuang Nainai waited for a few hours in the departure lounge before finally boarding the plane with the other passengers on her flight.
Sitting at her assigned seat with nobody beside her yet, she suddenly felt empty, and an indescribable pain welled up in her chest.
She was going overseas alone, her English wasn’t good, and coupled with the fact that she had just argued with Si Zhengting… she felt her heart tightening.
Staring ahead of her, she suddenly buried her head in her hands, tears flowing down the gaps between her fingers.
Just as she was reaching the peak of her sadness, she heard someone say,
Sorry, please excuse me.



Her whole body shook. She raised her head in disbelief at Si Zhengting, who was now standing right in front of her.
