Zhuang Nainai saw Madam Ding, but not Mi Nuo, who was behind her.
Meanwhile, Ding Mengya was still in a trance from the sudden realization she had just now. Her eyes were filled with disbelief. She remembered conversations she had shared with Xiao Muqing when she was young. When they got married in the future, they would surely move to the city. There, they would buy two villas and stay right next to each other. After they had children, they would form a marriage promise between their children if one of them had a boy and the other had a girl. If their children were of the same gender, they would be brothers or sisters. Even though they were not biological sisters, their relationship was as close as that of sisters…
As Ding Mengya thought of this, Ding Mengya’s heart ached.
She bit her lip. She had wanted to say something, but she chose to remain silent.
An odd silence filled the room instantly.
Downstairs, Butler Li and Ji Chen looked up at the three of them. The entire room was filled with only the sound from the television.
The television channel had not been switched since Ding Mengya went upstairs.
Currently, it was playing the morning news.
A deep and familiar voice reported, “… According to one of our reporters, after the Chinese woman was sent to the hospital in Kentucky, rescue efforts have been carried out for the whole night. Reporters were stationed outside the hospital for the whole night. This morning, they finally received the latest news about the woman…”
As soon as he finished speaking, the eyes of Zhuang Nainai, Ding Mengya, and even Mi Nuo landed on the television downstairs instantly.
All of them held their breaths as their attention was fixed on the news. Then, the news continued to report, “… As the rescue efforts were futile, she was pronounced dead as of 2 am today. We have confirmed that the said Chinese woman was Zhuang Meiting, and she was from Beijing…”
Upon hearing this, Zhuang Nainai stopped walking toward Ding Mengya. Widening her eyes in disbelief, she could only feel her mind buzzing for a moment before it crashed!
In that moment, she couldn’t hear nor see anything around her as she looked ahead in helplessness. Besides a feeling of numbness, no other emotions ran through her body.
What was the person saying on the television?
Mother Zhuang… was pronounced dead?
She clearly understood each word he had said. However, why couldn’t she wrap her mind around what he had said after those words were pieced into sentences?
How could her mother be dead…?
Mother had told her that she would see her put on a wedding dress and marry Si Zhengting~
Mother had promised her that she would look after her children after she gives birth.
She and her children were waiting for Grandma to come back. Didn’t he say they would be back in two days?
So, the news reporter must have made a mistake.
How annoying. How can the deceased have the same name as Mother?
Yes, that person isn’t Mother. Mother is still alive…
Biting her lip and clenching her fists tightly, she could not accept the reality.
But… Si Zhengting told her that Mother was alive! Si Zhengting told her that he would return with Mother! So why did things turn out like this?!
“Nainai. Nainai…” Ding Mengya called out to her, but her voice could not snap her out of her trance.
Zhuang Nainai seemed to have completely lost her mind. She was in her own world. As if she were a newborn baby, her gaze seemed lost, empty, and helpless.
She looked ahead in a daze. Only when she felt jolts of sharp pain from her lower abdomen did she snap out of her trance, as if she had woken up suddenly.
The moment she snapped out of it, anguish attacked her heart like a powerful electric current.
