Zhuang Nainai felt that her brain was not big enough to comprehend this situation.
Was she being too silly and muddle-headed today?
Putting aside the fact that she mistook Sister for her love rival, what was this brother-in-law all about?
Thinking back, she recalled that this man was even walking together with another beauty yesterday. Moreover, the child was already three or four years old!
Could that beauty have been his ex-wife?
It shouldn’t be.
If that beauty was his ex-wife, there wasn’t a need to be so secretive.
Since the beginning, Sister Si had said that brother-in-law went on a business trip. Indeed, when brother-in-law arrived, he said that he had just come back, but they had definitely just seen each other yesterday!
Zhuang Nainai looked at Si Jingyu, and then at Brother-in-law.
Si Jingyu behaved normally; the smile on her face was as natural as ever. She even smiled gently as she turned to look at Brother-in-law. They treated each other respectfully like an honored guest, as if the two of them have not met for a very long time.
As for this man, his state of mind was hidden deep down.
Zhuang Nainai reckoned that he would somehow be embarrassed, knowing that she had seen him with his mistress. Unexpectedly, he kept a straight face throughout. Even when Si Zhengting was introducing her to him, he looked at her and smiled immediately. “Sister-in-law is very beautiful.”
Si Zhengting seemed to be very fond of his brother-in-law. Upon hearing his brother-in-law’s words, the curve of his slight smile from the side of his lips revealed how happy he was, even though he did not speak at all.
Yet, Zhuang Nainai was stunned with her mouth agape.
He… did not recognize her?
Zhuang Nainai swallowed her saliva. Some words were simply stuck in her throat. She didn’t know whether she should say it out or not.
In addition, it was her first time meeting Si Jingyu, and she completely didn’t know what kind of person she was. If she were to say it all out so hastily, it would be extremely embarrassing if it was merely a misunderstanding.
However…
Zhuang Nainai looked towards Si Zhengting and hesitated for a moment. Just as she was about to speak, this “brother-in-law” suddenly extended his hand towards her. “Nice to meet you, I am Shi Jinyan.”
It wasn’t easy for Zhuang Nainai to make up her mind. Just like this, she was forced to take back the words that she was about to say.
She looked at that hand in front of her. For a short while, she was unwilling to shake that hand.
Damn it!
This man is good-looking and has a great disposition, but the fact that he is having an affair shows that he is certainly not a good person!
Zhuang Nainai despised this kind of person the most.
She curled her lips, turned around, and looked towards Si Jingyu. After hesitating for a moment, she said enthusiastically, “Sister, upon learning of your arrival, the butler has been preparing your favorite dishes since this morning. Hurry, come in!”
Upon hearing this, Si Jingyu smiled vaguely while looking towards Zhuang Nainai teasingly. “Oh! Looking at your expression a moment ago, I almost thought that you didn’t want to welcome me!”
As soon as Si Jingyu finished speaking, Zhuang Nainai’s face turned red instantly.
She lowered her head while feeling embarrassed. She wanted to say something, yet she didn’t know how to go about saying it.
At this moment, her wrist tightened as a pair of warm hands covered her hands. Si Zhengting said with a slightly indifferent tone, “Sister, Nainai is shy, don’t tease her.”
“Nainai” again…
Zhuang Nainai felt that whenever Si Zhengting addressed her as Nainai, he brought along an indescribable magical power that made the seed in her heart blossom instantly.
She felt as if she was treading on air; the feeling of happiness was bursting.
While still on cloud nine, she followed a few people into the living room.
As she was walking up the steps, Zhuang Nainai forgot that she was wearing a pair of stilettos. She tripped and almost fell on the ground. Thanks to Si Zhengting’s fast reflexes, he managed to support her in time.
