Zhuang Nainai glared at him hatefully. She wanted to say something, but, after thinking about Li Yufeng’s dignified status, she stopped herself from saying anything.
Si Zhengting had already expressed Zhuang Nainai’s concerns to the doctor. The doctor described the visitor, then Si Zhengting slowly translated, “She was about 5 feet and 5 inches tall and seemed to be in her forties. She seemed very elegant and dignified…”
The more Si Zhengting spoke, the more angry Zhuang Nainai was. These descriptions were all characteristic of Li Yufeng.
Li Yufeng had driven her mother away!
Zhuang Nainai was on the verge of tears. She didn’t know what to do.
She glanced at Gu Deshou. She thought that both Li Yufeng and her mother weren’t the ones at fault here. The person who was truly at fault was Gu Deshou.
And Gu Deshou lowered his head, looking guilty. “I should have hidden her better. It was my fault.”
“What is the point of saying this now? You’d better ask her what she said to my mother that caused her to leave without saying goodbye!”
Gu Deshou nodded, looking dispirited.
Zhuang Nainai suddenly saw that Si Zhengting’s expression had become strange.
Zhuang Nainai was puzzling over what the matter was as Si Zhengting furrowed his brows, then spoke in English solemnly.
The director gesticulated with his hands as he spoke. The more the director spoke, the darker Si Zhengting’s expression got. In the end, Si Zhengting’s gaze was icy, and he looked like he was about to fly into a rage!
Zhuang Nainai couldn’t understand what they said. Thus, she anxiously asked, “What did he say? Where’s my mother? What’s the matter?”
Si Zhengting turned back and looked at her, his lips quivering. He wanted to say something, but it looked as though he was debating with himself as to whether he wanted to say it. In the end, he said, “Nainai, it definitely wasn’t her, it wasn’t…”
Zhuang Nainai was perplexed by his words. As she was about to probe further, Gu Deshou suddenly said, “There’s a small mole on her forehead? Yufeng doesn’t have a mole there!”
Zhuang Nainai was unable to make sense of this. “What’s going on exactly?”
Gu Deshou suddenly said in a tone full of relief, “The director said that that woman had a small mole on her forehead that was hidden behind her eyebrows, so it wasn’t easily visible. But Yufeng doesn’t have such a mole…”
After he said this, he suddenly looked shocked. Then, he glanced at Si Zhengting and stammered, “I remember… it seems like on my in-law’s forehead…”
In-law?
Ding Mengya?
Ding Mengya… Once this name was brought up, the mole on Ding Mengya’s forehead surfaced in Zhuang Nainai’s mind’s eye.
Zhuang Nainai’s body stiffened with shock.
Ding Mengya?!
Thinking back to the features of the female visitor that the director had described, she found that Ding Mengya indeed had those features as well!
Thus, the person who had visited Mother, who had agitated her, and who had instigated her to leave — was it Ding Mengya or Li Yufeng?
Si Zhengting started to get anxious as well. He knew how important Mother Zhuang was to Zhuang Nainai. If Ding Mengya had been the visitor who had provoked Mother Zhuang, then Nainai would…
Si Zhengting took a step forward and took hold of the director’s arm. His eyes were narrowed as he said something in English harshly.
The director seemed startled and said something in reply. Zhuang Nainai couldn’t understand him and turned to Gu Deshou for an explanation.
As Si Zhengting saw what she did, his heart lurched. Was she… unwilling to speak to him again?
Even though Gu Deshou was scared of Si Zhengting, he couldn’t help but speak the truth in front of Zhuang Nainai. “He said, there was a surveillance camera in the convalescent home that managed to record the appearance of the visitor.”
