He seemed dazed as his gaze remained fixed on Zhuang Nainai. He looked as though he was recalling what had happened in the past. Then, he gently replied, “Yes, she had been stupid to do so.”
Zhuang Nainai found Si Zhengting’s words absurd. How did this man have the audacity to say such things?
She pursed her lips together, turned around, and walked out of the private room. When she walked out, she heard someone say behind her, “This girl you’re talking about is really too silly! Mr. Si, you’re such an outstanding person! I’m sure she regrets her decision now.”
Did she regret her decision?
Si Zhengting stared at her retreating figure, suddenly feeling lost and anxious. Was she regretting her decision to marry him at the moment?
He had severely misunderstood her, and she had been so angry as a result. That was acceptable under the circumstances.
Zhuang Nainai was not someone who was able to put something objectionable out of her mind. Would she be able to forgive him?
His head drooped.
Actually, he had been really nervous when he said that he loved her a lot earlier.
It was like his first time confessing his feelings. His expression was a little less calm than usual, and instead, he looked slightly helpless.
Thus, he had said it very softly the first time around. Then, he had seen her standing by the door, motionless. He was afraid that she hadn’t heard him, so he repeated himself.
He had desperately wished that she could’ve turned around and said that she also loved him a lot and that they should reconcile.
But… she didn’t say that.
She opened the door of the room and rushed out.
Si Zhengting wanted to chase after her, but he was afraid that his actions had forced her into a corner. He had never felt this uneasy and hesitant before.
Did she regret her decision?
Zhuang Nainai was also wondering if she felt this way.
She pondered this, seemingly in a daze as she continued walking on.
The temperature difference between the private room and its outside surroundings was rather large. Once she walked out and felt the cool air-conditioned air on her skin, she felt her mind clearing.
Her eyes were a little sore. She was forcibly stopping herself from crying.
He had said that he loved her very much…
Even if this was a lie, she was willing to lie to herself and to believe him in that moment.
Five years ago, and during the three years in which she pursued him romantically, she had always wanted Si Zhengting to say “I like you,” but he had never said it to her.
Five years later, she had given up on him ever saying it. But he had said it today.
These words had been said eight years too late, causing all her determination to crumble in a moment.
She had already been determined to get a divorce. However, at this moment, she was hesitant about it and could not bear to do so.
He… really did love her.
She loved him too. So why couldn’t they be together?
But after thinking about the vast number of misunderstandings, as well as those about Ding Mengya and Mother Zhuang, a sharp pain pierced her heart again.
Why couldn’t they… just get along well together?
Zhuang Nainai’s eyes were a little teary. She didn’t know what to do.
She sighed and saw the sign for the bathroom in front of her. She lowered her head and walked in.
Just as she walked in, she heard a gentle voice say in a bantering tone, “You’re… an impostor ladyboy?”
A male voice?!
Zhuang Nainai was drenched in cold sweat!
She hurriedly whipped her head around and saw a handsome man standing beside her. She was shocked, and her instinctual reaction was to kick him in the crotch. “Pervert!”
That man’s reflexes were extremely fast. He hurriedly retreated, his hands subconsciously protecting his crotch. Then, he pleaded in anguish, “Miss, please calm down!”
“Calm down, my foot! What is a pervert like you doing, bursting into the ladies’ bathroom like this?!”
