Zhuang Nainai’s voice was loud and clear, and it was enough for Si Zhengting and Mi Nuo to fully take in every single word she said.

A flash of astonishment crossed Si Zhengting’s gaze, followed by a glimmer of joy that spread outwards from his heart.

He had originally thought that he was on equal footing with Mother Zhuang at best, but little did he expect...

An inexplicable feeling began taking over Si Zhengting; he didn’t know how to describe it, but it simply felt as if a blockage in his chest was slowly being released.

There were no longer strains in his relationship with Nainai.

Sensing the change in the aura of the man who was standing at the door, she decided to press on. Staring at Zhuang Nainai, she said, “Zhuang Nainai, how can you be like this? Your mother raised you ever since you were a child, so how can you give up on her just like that? How can you face her?”

Zhuang Nainai stared back at Mi Nuo, then took a step backward. “Mi Nuo, do you take me for a fool? How stupid do you think I am?”

As she spoke up ’til here, she narrowed her eyes, a fierce glint flashing in them. “How would you even know of the whereabouts of my mother? The entire Gu family and Si Zhengting can’t even locate my mother, but you can? Are you kidding me?”

“Do you think I don’t know how my mother went missing? It was clearly shown through the recording that she had walked off by herself, and it wasn’t the doing of abductors or people who were trying to lure her somewhere! Are you even familiar with the state of Kentucky? Where did you even get the confidence to think that other people are stupid enough to be played with in the palm of your hands?”

“Also, how exactly are you related to the Gus? Why do you know so much about our family matters?”

The barrage of questions stunned Mi Nuo entirely.

It was only then that she suddenly realized that, in her agitation, she had accidentally revealed her level of understanding of the Gu family and Zhuang Nainai!

Gulping, she looked disbelievingly at Zhuang Nainai.

Zhuang Nainai was about to say something more when Si Zhengting spoke. “Nainai, it’s time for you to eat.”

Impatiently looking down to check his watch, he realized that it had already been five minutes’ worth of eating time that got wasted — this Mi Nuo sure knew how to delay others!

Upon hearing this, she swung her head violently to look toward Si Zhengting, then back at Mi Nuo. All of a sudden, she finally realized Mi Nuo’s train of thought.

In an instant, she didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. This Mi Nuo... was scheming and evil beyond description!

Mi Nuo began to feel a little guilty under the happy gaze and smile of Zhuang Nainai. Biting her lips, she watched as Zhuang Nainai turned around and headed toward Si Zhengting.

She saw how Si Zhengting took two quick steps forward to receive Zhuang Nainai, how he took her by the arm, and how they walked out together.

She immediately felt that the scene before her was such an eyesore — she wanted to ruin this sense of perfection!

Mi Nuo tightened her fists. All of a sudden, Zhuang Nainai turned her head to look at her. Blissfully keeping her arm intertwined with Si Zhengting’s, she leaned her head on his shoulder and said, “Anger you to death.”

Mi Nuo was speechless.

Mi Nuo tried to suppress her anger by repeatedly telling herself to calm down. But the tumultuous feelings in her heart were making her feel as if she could explode immediately!

Standing where she was, she took a deep breath, then another one. And yet, she was still unable to restrain the anger that was burning in her heart and a metallic tang rose in her throat.

Reaching out to press down on her near-exploding chest, she looked at the door. A crazed look entered her gaze.
