Chapter 763: For Her, So What if the Imperial Group Suffers a Blow?
If someone who wasn’t aware of the context were to see him like this, he would surely think that Mr. Si had to go for a meeting that concerned his life and death. But actually… Mr. Si was only anxious about Madam not being able to have a bowl of warm rice, wasn’t he?
As Ji Chen thought of this, he looked down again.
After Si Zhengting had paced back and forth for a while, he glanced at the time. Upon confirming that the reporters and paparazzi had probably left, he strode out. He asked as he headed out, “How many people have you called to station outside?”
“The reporters from all of Beijing’s renowned news stations are here. Tomorrow, this matter will surely make the headlines.” After saying this, Ji Chen lowered his head again. “It is guaranteed that everyone will know that there is a new Mrs. Si.”
As soon as he finished speaking, Si Zhengting nodded.
Looking at him, Ji Chen had something to say, but he could not bring himself to say it. At last, he said, “Mr. Si, doing so will definitely cause the Imperial Group’s stocks to fall drastically. Are you… really sure about this? It’s still not too late to take back your words. We can still fetch Madam back in time and change this situation.”
Si Zhengting stopped in his tracks. He suddenly turned around and looked at Ji Chen. Initially, he did not want to justify his actions, but he really needed an outlet to vent his emotions right now. Hence, he pursed his lips tightly before saying moments later, “Ji Chen, money is not important to me.”
If it’s for her sake, so what if the Imperial Group were to suffer a blow?
―
Unable to fall asleep, Zhuang Nainai lay on the bed and closed her eyes. After hearing about Madam Ding’s condition, she could not help but overthink.
Ding Mengya had lost her memory. Would Si Zhengting believe her? Or would he believe Mi Nuo?
What exactly was going on?
Were her two babies healthy?
Why was she sent here?
All these thoughts occupied her mind, causing her to be very vexed.
Since they promised to trust each other, they should keep their word. But could it be that Si Zhengting couldn’t give her even the most basic trust?
No, no. That was definitely not the case.
They had gone through so much adversity together; he would surely believe her. So, there must be a reason behind his actions.
This must be the case.
She shook her head to abandon all those fleeting thoughts. Thereafter, she suddenly overheard the conversation between Lin Xi’er and Zuo Yiyi in the living room.
Lin Xi’er asked Zuo Yiyi, “What should Nainai eat in the afternoon?”
Zuo Yiyi’s voice became louder immediately. “Why are you asking me this? Didn’t the Pockmarked-Face tell you yesterday?”
Lin Xi’er answered, “He said only that Nainai shouldn’t eat too much after she wakes up and that she should just have a bowl of porridge in the morning. He didn’t say anything else!”
After saying this, Lin Xi’er lowered her head. “It’s already 11 am. Why aren’t they here to prepare the meal yet?”
Zuo Yiyi also pursed her lips. “Those men really have no sense of time!!”
Zhuang Nainai was at a complete loss after hearing their conversation.
Lin Xi’er had never been a fan of cooking. When she told Zhuang Nainai that she should just have one bowl of porridge just now, Zhuang Nainai did not think much of it. Thinking about it now, it seemed to Zhuang Nainai like there was someone teaching Lin Xi’er all of these things.
Who were the “men” they were referring to?
After half an hour, the doorbell finally rang.
Lin Xi’er opened the door immediately. Then, Zhuang Nainai heard two distinct footsteps entering the house.
One of them was directly headed to her bedroom.
The familiar footsteps and something she felt out of nowhere made her heart lurch. Her eyes widened as she stared at the door to her room.
Before she knew it, a tall and familiar figure had appeared at her door.
As his back was facing the light, Zhuang Nainai could not see his face immediately. She could only see a familiar figure, which made her tear up unknowingly.
