Si Zhengting would never marry her no matter what she did?
Zhuang Nainai was amused. She was about to rebut when she suddenly recalled Si Zhengting’s recent attitude towards her, and her words got stuck in her throat.
Si Zhengting’s attitude towards this marriage had been ambiguous from the start. He must have wanted it to be a secret by keeping it so low profile.
Would Si Zhengting be angry if she disclosed their relationship?
Zhuang Nainai fought the bitterness within, not wanting to engage in an argument with Zuo Yiyi. She looked at the time and headed to Si Zhengting’s office.
She had only taken two steps when her arm was caught in a tight grip by Zuo Yiyi. Zhuang Nainai frowned and turned to look at her.
Zuo Yiyi lifted her chin haughtily and pursed her lips. “Zhuang Nainai, did you not hear what I said? Get away from Brother Ting!”
Get away from him?
What would her face look like if she were to tell Zuo Yiyi that they shared a bed every night?
Zhuang Nainai curled her lips and shook off Zuo Yiyi’s grip on her arm. “Zuo Yiyi, who are you to tell me that? I am still your Brother Ting’s fiancée even if he no longer likes me, what about you?”
Her words made Zuo Yiyi livid. She bit down on her lips and shouted, “Zhuang Nainai, you are shameless!”
“I am shameless? Right, I am. What about you, clinging onto and harrassing someone else’s fiancée? Ms. Zuo, what about THAT?” Zhuang Nainai was quick-witted; she would not lose in a verbal face-off.
Zuo Yiyi’s whole body shook with anger. “Zhuang Nainai!”
Zhuang Nainai glanced at her coolly and turned to continue walking to Si Zhengting’s office.
Zuo Yiyi stomped her feet, her chest heaving heavily from her fury.
However, Zhuang Nainai was barred entrance by Dashan and Xiaoshan when she reached the office door.
Zhuang Nainai looked at them, perplexed. “Are you saying that Si Zhengting is not letting me in?”
Dashan and Xiaoshan were uneasy. They could stop Zhuang Nainai previously in the name of getting rid of a nuisance for Mr. Si. But now, they were put in a difficult spot while the married couple was fighting.
Mr. Si had doted on her days ago. When they patch things up later, what if Madam holds it against them?
Look how Huang Peidong had his name changed to Huang Dazhuang!
Xiaoshan looked to Dashan, who was equally helpless. He coughed and said in a low voice, “This is Sir’s order.”
Order?
She had been so nervous and tense when he asked her for lunch last week. How could he treat her like this when he was the one who lost his temper out of the blue in the morning?
Si Zhengting was too much!
It was especially inconvenient, since Zuo Yiyi was still right behind her.
Zhuang Nainai felt as if she had been hit in the face. She was embarrassed. Zuo Yiyi would surely jeer if she were to argue with Dashan and Xiaoshan now.
Zhuang Nainai could only leave.
She turned to see Zuo Yiyi’s triumphant smirk. “Zhuang Nainai, I’ve told you not to embarass yourself. Brother Ting had ditched you long ago, he would not want you back!”
She then strode on with her chin lifted.
Dashan and Xiaoshan were about to stop her when she demanded, “Out of my way! I have a lunch appointment with Brother Ting!”
Dashan and Xiaoshan could only keep to the sides.
Zhuang Nainai’s chest tightened.
Was she being kept out because he was going to eat lunch with Zuo Yiyi?
