Her eyes filling with tears, Zhuang Nainai was shocked speechless.
She looked at him in silence, thinking she had recognized the wrong person.
She rubbed her eyes and looked at him once more. She saw the same man in a suit — formal, handsome, and cold.
It was indeed him.
Why was he here?


Zhuang Nainai was utterly confused and shocked. Still dumbstruck, she saw that Si Zhengting was making eyes at her leg, so she moved her leg away for him to squeeze past her.
He settled down beside her, his large frame suddenly making the space of the chair seem small.
Up ’til this moment, Zhuang Nainai was still stunned.
Was he going on a business trip?
But if he was heading to Chicago, someone of his status should be in the first-class cabin, right? What was he doing in the economy cabin?
So, if he wasn’t going on a business trip, what was he doing here?
Si Zhengting’s cell phone kept vibrating. Putting on his Bluetooth earpiece, he stared ahead as he spoke to the person on the other end of the line, seemingly explaining his work arrangements with regards to some big projects in his absence.

… for Director Li, let’s wait until I get back… these few days won’t make much of a difference… just leave this project to the one in charge…

His voice was low with a certain magnetism to it, and it drew Zhuang Nainai out of her shock.
She immediately made a
hic
sound. Having been crying earlier, she was now in shock, and the sudden transition was making her hiccup repeatedly.


Zhuang Nainai’s face reddened instantly, and she tried to press down on her own chest in the hope that she would be spared the embarrassment in front of him.
But a few seconds after pressing her chest, she uncontrollably gave another cough.
Zhuang Nainai rapidly picked up the mineral water she had bought earlier and violently drank a few sips, but she showed no signs of stopping.
Gosh.
Here she was hiccuping and choking, her eyes filled with tears and her nose full of mucus… how ugly and embarrassing it was!
Zhuang Nainai used her hands to cover her face, wishing she could just find a hole to hide in!
Just as she was struggling, someone suddenly gave her a hard pat on the back.
Shocked, she almost jumped out of her seat. Turning around, she saw Si Zhengting looking at her, his face still expressionless and cold.
He had finished his call and was now sitting quietly beside her.
Zhuang Nainai immediately asked,
Why did you hit me?



Si Zhengting answered,
You’re no longer hiccuping.

Zhuang Nainai was stunned, then she realized: she was indeed not hiccuping anymore!
She opened her mouth once, then twice. Finally, she managed to ask,
What are you doing here?

Si Zhengting looked at her squarely.
Work.

She knew he was going to say that!
All the love, concern, and care he had for her were always stuck in his heart, just like what happened with her passport. Would it hurt him that much to express himself openly?
Well, he had refused and had used such underhanded methods to hold her passport hostage.
Having thought this, Zhuang Nainai felt a surge of anger rising in her, and she decided to simply turn away from him.
She felt her eyes tearing. Sniffing and biting her lips, she suddenly saw a piece of tissue right in front of her.
Stunned, she turned her head, only to see Si Zhengting looking straight back at her. He slowly said,
Nainai, I don’t want to miss another five years.
