But why was it related to TZ?!
And was Si Zhengting’s face sullen because he thought she was lying?!
Zhuang Nainai swallowed and anxiously tried to explain. “Si Zhengting, listen to me! These design drafts belong to me, but trust me, I’m just as confused as you are. The only thing we can do for now is to wait for Sister to come back and clear things up!”
She looked up at him, full of hope.
But Si Zhengting’s gaze was still cold and piercing while his face remained expressionless and even slightly mocking.
Zhuang Nainai’s heart began to feel heavy with pain.
He didn’t believe her.
When the issue of the design drafts had come to light, she had been happy that he had displayed his trust in her, but now…
She felt a sob rising in her throat, but she restrained herself from letting tears fall.
Zhuang Nainai bit her lips and lifted her head. Trying to coax him, she said, “Si Zhengting, could you be a bit more reasonable? We just need to wait two months before Sister returns and the truth will be out. For now, can you just trust me?”
“No.” His reply was instantaneous.
Zhuang Nainai’s heart was in turmoil. Standing up with her fists clenched, she shook as she used all the strength she had to say, “Why not? Isn’t it just two months?!”
He looked at her as coldly as ever. With a low voice, he said, “Two months is enough time for you to help your mother settle down.”
These words were light and seemingly weightless.
But Zhuang Nainai heard them loud and clear. Her whole body shook as her expression turned cold. “What did you say?”
Si Zhengting moved closer to her. Remaining silent, he simply pressed his lips together.
Zhuang Nainai began to put together his att.i.tude and his words. Thinking carefully again about what he had just said, she vehemently understood. He had heard her conversation over the phone!
He had bugged her cell phone and monitored her!
Zhuang Nainai felt as if her whole world was collapsing in those moments. Taking a step backward in disbelief, she fell onto the sofa as her legs turned to jelly.
Why had he been monitoring her?
Was it because he had never trusted her in the first place?
But even so, how was that an excuse to act with such disrespect and monitor her?!
Zhuang Nainai felt insulted like never before. The rage in her began to rise.
She could resist it no longer.
No longer!
She was exerting so much strength that her fingers were already digging into her palms. Biting her lips tightly, she looked at him in shock and bewilderment.
She knew that the imperative was to explain to him what she had said to Gu Deshou in order to deceive him, but she clenched her teeth and said instead, “Si Zhengting, what right do you have to monitor my cell phone!?”
Her voice that was verging on insanity and her face that showed desperate restraint made Si Zhengting suddenly feel a sense of ridicule.
Right, why did he monitor her?
Si Zhengting took a step back, his expression turning slightly upset.
It wasn’t only just monitoring her. He had forced her to marry him, to carry his children, and now, he had been so shameless as to monitor her cell phone…
All these were things even he himself looked down upon. But he had done all of them just to make her stay with him.
Despite this, what was the result?
