Chapter 144: Let Me Ask You Again: Why Didn’t You Like My Mother?

 

The top floor is brightly lit, the window showing the magnificent view of the city of Beijing.

Unfortunately, Zhuang Nai Nai is in no position to be admiring the views.  Her entire brain is paralyzed as Si Zheng Ting pressed her tight against the wall.

Their positions do not look ambiguous at all to her.  She simply looks at Si Zheng Ting in surprise.

Why is he asking her that?

Although confused, her mouth automatically says, “What are you talking about?  I did not…..”

Before she even finishes speaking, the man leans down and covers her lips with his own.

This kiss feels a little punishing, as though he is trying to take control of her.

He uses a little force when he bites her lips, causing her to frown in discomfort.

She tries to push him away, but that only make him kiss her harder.

She can taste blood in her mouth.  She really wants to cry.

It hurts!

She does not have the guts to resist, so she simply lets him do whatever he wants to do.

Just as she thinks that she is going to run out of oxygen from the kiss, Si Zheng Ting suddenly lets her go.

She breathes heavily, desperately taking in air.  She looks at the man in front of her.

Did he eat the wrong medicine today?

Just as she is busy pondering over why he is acting this way, Si Zheng Ting’s hoarse voice can be heard once again, “Tell me, why did you dislike my mother?”

She looks at his deep eyes before saying, “I did not—hmph—“

She didn’t think that he would kiss her again.

Even Si Zheng Ting does not know why he is acting this way.  When he sees the way she is going to deny things, the feelings he pent up surges up, causing him to do all this.

He suddenly has the desire to kiss her to death if she doesn’t tell the truth, today.

The kiss this time, is wilder than the previous one.  He becomes rougher.  She feels as though air has been sucked out of her entire body.

After a while, he lets go of her again.

Her entire body feels weak and her limbs are shaking.  If he hasn’t been holding tightly onto her, she would have fallen onto the floor long ago.

At this moment, his restrained voice can be heard once again, “Why didn’t you like my mother?”

Why didn’t she like his mother?

She really wants to tell him what his mother did five years ago.  But, when she sees that icy smile on his face, she suddenly remembers Ding Mengya’s words.

Her heart is filled with bitterness.

Ding Mengya was right.  If the truth comes to the surface, the ones getting hurt will not only be Si Zheng Ting, but also herself.

Perhaps, their relationship that has only improved will turn upside down once again.

Zhuang Nai Nai forces herself to calm down.  She puts on an ugly-looking smile, “What are you talking about?  Why wouldn’t I like your mother?”

Si Zheng Ting narrows his eyes, a trace of bitterness floating in his eyes.

Although she does not admit to anything, the expression on her face does it for her.

Something has really happened between her and Lady Ding.

Si Zheng Ting feels like a complete idiot.  He was willing to forget everything; the way she unceremoniously discarded him.  He wanted to start afresh, to build a relationship based on honesty.  But everything was just wishful thinking on his part.
