Nighttime in Beijing was very cold.
As the cold wind gushed, the withered yellow branches in the surrounding swayed gently.
Sitting in the passenger seat, Zhuang Nainai looked out at the tree branches. After a while, she couldn’t help but say, “What do you think Li Yufeng is trying to do?”
When he heard this, Si Zhengting’s eyes narrowed.
After Ding Mengya and Li Yufeng had left, she had not mentioned anything about this matter, so he had thought that she did not detect Li Yufeng’s odd behavior. However, he was wrong.
Although ‘Baby Brain’ is a phenomenon, she was very clever, so how could she not have noticed Li Yufeng’s ill intentions toward her?
But what exactly was Li Yufeng trying to do?
He was clueless too.
Logically speaking, no matter how much Li Yufeng hated her, Zhuang Nainai was still her daughter. As the saying goes, “even a monster would not hurt its own children,” so why did she keep trying to stir things up?
But what if we assume that she is evil?
They had witnessed the incident at the hospital, and it was clear that Li Yufeng valued Zhuang Nainai’s child very much.
If we assume that she is nice, on the other hand?
Why did all these things that she had done so far make them feel uneasy?
While Si Zhengting was still contemplating, he saw Zhuang Nainai sit up straight suddenly. “Right, do you still remember that time when my mother was said to have been found at the state of Kentucky? At that time, the flight tickets were so difficult to get. But Li Yufeng gave me a call and said to tell you not to worry. She also said a lot of things that would lead me to misunderstand that you’d bought all the tickets. I did not take it to heart, but upon drawing connections to today’s incident… why do I feel like she is trying to wreck our relationship? But why is she doing this?”
Li Yufeng’s behavior was so absurd that they could not wrap their heads around her intentions.
When Si Zhengting was still deep in thought, he suddenly heard Zhuang Nainai exclaim suddenly, “I get it now!”
He turned his head, only to see her frowning and squinting her eyes. After touching her nose for a moment, her lips slanted and she started to analyze very philosophically, “She is trying to stir up some relationship drama! Once we have a huge falling out, I will understand the importance of family. Then, I will start to rely on them. So, is she still trying to use me?”
Si Zhengting: “…!!”
He could not bear to look at her right now. He really… wished he could pull her into his embrace and plant a kiss on her lips.
He reached out and tousled her hair as he continued to drive. “You don’t have to think about this. I already asked Ji Chen to investigate this matter. Once he finishes investigating, we will know what is going on. For now, we have to be very careful around Li Yufeng.”
After saying this, he paused. “And Mi Nuo.”
Zhuang Nainai said, “Okay, I understand.” Then, she turned to look at Si Zhengting. “How are you going to deal with Mi Nuo?”
This guy was really petty. However, since the class gathering wherein the teacher revealed Mi Nuo’s true colors, he actually did not have any reaction. Could it be that… he was preparing something?
Just as she thought this, she heard him say, “Mi Nuo is very cautious in whatever she does. I have not found anything that I can use against her. So, we shall just wait and see when she makes a move. Furthermore, their hostility came so ineffably. I can’t find a reason for it and I feel uneasy.”
Upon saying this, Si Zhengting suddenly thought of something. “Did you just say you only started to suspect me after Li Yufeng gave you a call?”
Zhuang Nainai nodded. After thinking for a moment, he picked up his phone and called Ji Chen. Si Zhengting switched on the speaker mode before asking, “Who gave you the idea to buy all the flight tickets to America last time?”
