Chapter 477: They Have a Child Now (7)

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

At the thought of this, Zhuang Nainai felt a wave of worry.

Just as she was thinking about this, Si Zhengting stepped forward and grabbed her hand.

She tried to remove her hand from his grasp, but his grip was extremely strong. With him refusing to let go, she turned her head toward him and heard him say, “Nainai, this child...”

Being bad with words, he stopped himself short as if to consider what to say next. Yet it also seemed as if he was struggling to make himself speak.

Zhuang Nainai watched him silently. Perhaps because of the antiseptic smell of the hospital, she was surprisingly able to keep her cool. Lying on the hospital bed, she simply looked at him.

Si Zhengting pressed his lips together and cast a glance at Lin Xi’er.

Lin Xi’er furrowed her brows, unwilling to let him stay in the ward in fear that he would agitate Zhuang Nainai. On the other hand, she also wanted to give both of them a chance to interact alone. Finally, she stood up and walked outside. “Er, Nainai, I’ll go to the bathroom.”

Once Lin Xi’er walked out, the room fell silent once more.

Squatting down by Zhuang Nainai’s bedside, Si Zhengting looked at her for a few moments before finally saying, “Nainai, let’s get along well from now on, okay?”

Get along?

How were they... going to get along?

She would always have conflicts with Ding Mengya. One was his mother, the other was his wife — Si Zhengting would be caught in the middle for sure, and he would suffer the most.

And she, she who had been abandoned by him when he had escorted Ding Mengya away, was still hurting from that episode.

They were now most probably at the end of their relationship.

Even the memories they had from five years ago were now no longer enough to make up for the hurt that had come thereafter.

At the thought of this, Zhuang Nainai lowered her head. She reached out and placed her hand on her stomach, then said, “Si Zhengting, do you think we’re still suited to be together?”

Still suited to be together?

Si Zhengting paused.

Then, he lowered his gaze and said slowly, “No.”

Zhuang Nainai’s heart tore apart when she heard him speak.

So, he had actually thought them to be unsuitable to be together?

He had never brought it up, but now that he was saying it, was he finally going to break up with her?

She reached out to grab hold of a mug. Slowly, she replied, “Five years ago, we were too young and reckless, and we didn’t have enough trust in each other. In the period of time that we were apart, we were too far away from each other, and that distance has become an uncrossable boundary for the two of us. As husband and wife, the two most important elements in a husband-wife relationship are trust and a willingness to make things work. We are only stubborn in the love we have for each other, but we have no mutual trust. More than that, we have a barrier between us that’s impossible to cross. So, Si Zhengting, let’s break up.”

It wasn’t that she didn’t want to give her child a happy family, but Mother Zhuang had once told her that the one thing she could not compromise on was marriage, because compromise in a marriage would become the undoing of the family in the future.

After he had left with Ding Mengya earlier in the day, Zhuang Nainai had felt a thick sadness enveloping her, suffocating and painful, and she was not ready to experience it all over again.

She turned her head to the side, feeling the atmosphere around her grow morose as she waited for Si Zhengting’s answer.

Si Zhengting did not move, but his deep eyes were now fixed on her.

After a few moments, he finally spoke. “Nainai, five years ago, you misunderstood me and left me. Five years later, are you going to leave me once more?”

Leave him once more?

Zhuang Nainai was stunned.
