Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Si Zhengting’s heart felt like it had been violently hammered by something. He suddenly felt excruciating pain.

She was crying?

He felt his heart twitching in pain. He had wanted to make her happy and for her to stay. But why did his every action make her unhappy?

He couldn’t explain what he was feeling at the moment. He could only lower his head, gently kissing her face, licking those salty tears off her cheeks. “Nainai, don’t cry...”

However, this gentle display of affection made Zhuang Nainai feel more wronged, and they were about to break loose!

Ever since they had gotten married, he had been ambivalent toward her, causing her to worry about the state of their relationship and to be misunderstood. She had been tormented by these feelings and had been so exhausted by them. And with Mother Zhuang no longer by her side, she had no one dear to her to confide in. She had lain in her bed every night, appearing to sleep soundly, but who really knew how much she had to struggle to survive?

Zhuang Nainai’s body heaved as she sobbed, her arms reaching out to push him off of her and to vent her anger on him. Even though she knew that her own physical strength was no match for his, she still wanted him to leave. However, though she had only used mild force this time around, he sat up immediately.

Zhuang Nainai immediately picked up the blanket and wrapped herself in it, then sat by the bedside and silently stared at her man. Fury suddenly surged within her. She bit her lips and glared at him, fury burning in her eyes. “Si Zhengting! What do you think I am? A pet that you can command to come and go as you please?!”

Seeing how livid she was, Si Zhengting was a little nervous. For the first time, he fumbled for the right words, “Nainai, that wasn’t what I meant, I...”

“Wasn’t what you meant? Then what were you trying to do just now? I had already told you to stop!” Zhuang Nainai’s tears flowed freely. It was as though she wanted to convert all the grievances that she had buried within her body into tears to be purged from her body.

Si Zhengting was taken aback. “When I saw you here, I thought...”

“What? Did you think I was here to sneak into your bed?!” Zhuang Nainai suddenly felt even sadder.

Ever since the most recent meeting, she had thought of ways to get closer to him. There were many occasions where she had swallowed her pride for a chance to trail behind him, but this didn’t mean that she had no pride at all!

Zhuang Nainai bit her lips, her voice a little choked as she said, “Si Zhengting, I have my pride too! Please don’t underestimate me! I couldn’t bring myself to swallow my pride and to continue following you when you’ve misunderstood me and doubted me!

“Si Zhengting, I do love you, but I have my own limits as well!

“I’m really sorry that I’ve disappointed you. I’m only here to get my clothes, not because I wanted to see you!”

After she said that, she tore the blanket away and stood up. As she was angry and the atmosphere was so oppressive, she didn’t even feel a shred of embarrassment. She walked to the closet and picked up her clothes, then wrapped a sleeping robe around herself and started to walk out of the room.

Her questions and her accusations were so piercing that they were almost capable of tearing Si Zhengting’s heart apart.

Thinking about the many grievances he had given her, about how she had been interrogated by the people around her, and about how her frail body had had to endure so much pressure, Si Zhengting suddenly felt that he really was a f*cking b*stard!

He couldn’t even protect his woman!

He watched as she made to leave the room. Once again, the last image he had of her was that retreating figure, and it suddenly caused him much anxiety.

Without thinking, he impulsively stood up and chased after her.
