Chapter 767: How Could Brother Ting Do This?!
Stunned, Lin Xi’er lowered her head and took a look at the apple, which she had already bitten twice. She was dazed. Thereafter, she swallowed and raised her head confidently. “Yes, this is for Nainai. I just think this apple looks really yummy, so I couldn’t resist eating it. Nainai, you won’t blame me for this, will you? I will peel another one for you right now.”
After saying this, she put the apple aside immediately and picked up another one to peel.
However, before she could even start peeling, Zuo Yiyi stood up suddenly. She stared at Zhuang Nainai. “AHHH! I can’t take this anymore! How could Brother Ting do this?!”
As soon as Zuo Yiyi finished speaking, Lin Xi’er’s lips twitched. Meanwhile, Su Yanbin froze on the spot. He could not help but turn around to steal a glance at the man standing by the kitchen door. He lowered his head and looked down at the remote control in his hand, feeling as if the knife in his hand was going to cut through him soon.
He switched off the television instantly and hid the remote control under the bolster like nothing ever happened.
Once again, the room became silent. In that moment, Su Yanbin really felt like Zuo Yiyi was an utter fool. Just as he was worried that Zhuang Nainai might really start crying and the knife in that person’s hand was going to land on him, Zhuang Nainai said something.
Looking at Zuo Yiyi, she said in an ever amiable tone, “I believe that he has his reasons for doing all these.”
After she heard this, Zuo Yiyi’s eyes widened again immediately.
Infuriated, she looked at Zhuang Nainai as she paced back and forth. At last, she stomped her foot. “How do you maintain your composure so well? If this happened to me, I would have confronted Brother Ting already! Even though he has his reasons, he shouldn’t do this! Don’t you find it disgusting that he let that woman become Mrs. Si?!”
Zhuang Nainai answered weakly, “Even if I were to confront him, I’d need the energy to do so, right?”
Taken aback, Zuo Yiyi realized that Zhuang Nainai was still in the midst of postpartum confinement. She immediately lowered her head in defeat and shut her mouth. After looking at Zhuang Nainai for a while, she said, “I’ve seen people online say that actually postpartum confinement isn’t really a big deal. People in other countries don’t even practice it. Their bodies would be vigorous the day after they give birth. Are you really… weak?”
After hearing this, Zhuang Nainai did not know whether to laugh or cry. She could not help but say in a hateful tone, “Do you want to know?”
Zuo Yiyi nodded.
“Then go and give birth to a child yourself!”
Upon hearing this, Zuo Yiyi immediately blushed. She stomped her foot. “Why are you so cheeky? How do you bring yourself to say something so frivolous? No wonder Brother Ting doesn’t want you anymore!”
As soon as she said this, she immediately realized what just came out of her mouth. She had wanted to apologize to Zhuang Nainai, but Zhuang Nainai looked like she did not care about Zuo Yiyi’s remarks. She really expected better from her. “Alright. The observer is indeed more anxious than the person involved. I won’t be worried for your sake anymore. I’m going to watch television!”
She walked toward the living room after saying this.
The moment she left, Su Yanbin also stood up immediately. “I’m going to watch television in the living room too. Have a good rest.”
After the two of them left, Lin Xi’er simply stared at Zhuang Nainai.
As her best friend who grew up with her, Lin Xi’er knew her well enough. Zhuang Nainai might not seem to care, but how could she not care deep in her heart?
Lin Xi’er put down the apple, reached out, and held Zhuang Nainai’s hand. “Nainai, you and Mr. Si are deeply in love with each other, and the two of you have finally resolved the misunderstandings after so much difficulty. Don’t worry. Mr. Si will definitely not abandon you.”
