Bewildered, everyone looked at Mr. Si before they shifted their attention toward Zhuang Nainai again. Then, they lowered their heads as all of them seemed to have gotten the message: Although Ms. Zhuang was a used-to-be Mrs. Si, they still could not afford to provoke her!
Standing beside them, Cheng Sizhe was dazed.
He looked at Si Zhengting, and then at Zhuang Nainai, and then at Xiao Caibai. He knew that Xiao Caibai would never kneel down in front of Zhuang Nainai. If Xiao Caibai really knelt down in front of Zhuang Nainai, Xiao Caibai would probably hate Zhuang Nainai to death. By then, how was Zhuang Nainai going to live her life?
Pursing his lips, he saw Xiao Caibai turn around to look at him. “Cheng Sizhe, do you also think that I should kneel down in front of her?”
Cheng Sizhe furrowed his brows. He paused for a moment before saying, “Kneeling down is indeed too much. I think you should just offer an apology and we shall let this go.”
Xiao Caibai felt like she was about to go crazy, but her excellent upbringing helped her maintain her cool. She glanced at Si Zhengting and Cheng Sizhe with an unpleasant look on her face.
The three of them belonged to the same world. However, now, one of them was actually using her grandfather to threaten her into kneeling down in front of Zhuang Nainai. Meanwhile, not only did the other one not defend her, but he was even asking her to apologize!
Clenching her fists, Xiao Caibai glared at Zhuang Nainai viciously and scoffed, “You want me to kneel down? You want me to apologize? Does she even deserve it?!”
After saying this, she turned around immediately and strode off.
She came here with her bodyguards. She didn’t believe that someone would dare to stop her!
After Xiao Caibai’s figure vanished from the event hall, the entire venue remained silent for a few seconds before recovering its liveliness.
Zhuang Nainai stood at her original spot and stared at Si Zhengting.
She wasn’t experiencing joy from winning against Xiao Caibai, nor thrill from seeing Si Zhengting.
She felt as if she had just been pushed into a dark and cold abyss. The biting cold was enough to send shivers down her spine.
As she pursed her lips, her eyes darted between Cheng Sizhe and Si Zhengting. At last, her gaze landed on Si Zhengting.
She walked over step by step. Just as Si Zhengting was about to turn around and leave, she said in a very calm and composed voice, “Si Zhengting, I have something to tell you.”
Si Zhengting stopped in his tracks and turned around to face her.
Zhuang Nainai’s expression was complicated. She seemed like she had thought of something and came around to something. Suddenly, she looked like she was at a loss for what to do.
Looking at her, Si Zhengting became slightly hesitant. However, his tone was still firm. “We don’t have much to talk about.”
Upon saying this, he disregarded Cheng Sizhe and said, “Don’t get the wrong idea. I only did that just now because I don’t want… my ex-wife to be belittled by someone. If not, my reputation would be damaged.”
Although this explanation did not sound very convincing, his heartlessness caused Zhuang Nainai’s heart to wrench.
She clenched her fists tightly and bit her lip. With a determined gaze, she suddenly sped up and dashed toward Si Zhengting.
The bodyguards around them had wanted to block her, but they froze on the spot immediately upon seeing his gesture. Hence, they simply watched Zhuang Nainai approach Si Zhengting aggressively. Thereafter, she lifted her hand and threw a bank card at Si Zhengting mercilessly!
This move stunned everyone around them!
