Si Zheng Ting remains expressionless.
Zhuang Nai Nai feels very guilty seeing him in that manner. Just as she clears her throat and is about to speak, he suddenly says, “Alright.”
Joy fills her heart. She looks at him happily.
“But….” says Si Zheng Ting.
Her heart stops for a moment, “But what?”
“How are you going to repay me?”
Zhuang Nai Nai feels like she is going to vomit blood! How on earth is she supposed to return 8 million yuan?
She is his wife; they ought to share everything together.
She looks around before laughing awkwardly, “My salary is inside your card. Besides, we are married, is there a need to be so calculating towards each other?”
Si Zheng Ting continues teasing her, “Your monthly salary is 8000 yuan. One year worth of salary will be 100,000 yuan. So, I will have to deduct your salary for the next 100 years?”
Zhuang Nai Nai replies him in a confident and righteous manner, “You cannot say it like that! What I am about to give to you is my everything; the 8 million on the other hand, is just a drop in the ocean for you, those two are not the same. If we are to compare them side-by-side, I am on the losing side!”
Si Zheng Ting: ………………
Who would have thought that she would be so eloquent?
Sometimes she can be so dim-witted, almost to the point of foolishness, but there are also times where she can be smart.
Besides……
She is giving him her everything, she says…..
Everything……
His mood immediately becomes good. He pats her in the head gently, “I will give it to you tomorrow.”
Zhuang Nai Nai, who has been waiting for Si Zheng Ting’s sharp retort is taken aback by his action. She can feel the warmth of his hand as he caresses her head.
She hugs him, overjoyed, “You are too good, Husband!”
The word ‘husband’ stumps Si Zheng Ting.
His eyes become a little cloudy as he looks at the elated woman. He sighs before calmly saying, “Let’s sleep.”
The next day, bright sunlight streams through the window as Zhuang Nai Nai opens her eyes.
She looks at Si Zheng Ting who is already sitting next to her. She rubs her eyes blearily, “Did jiejie return last night? Is everything alright with brother-in-law?”
Si Zheng Ting narrows his eyes when he hears that. Sensing Zhuang Nai Nai’s worry, he says, “I don’t think so.”
Just then, a message is sent to his phone, ‘I have finalized the design drafts. I am out to play now, don’t look for me!’
This….
Zhuang Nai Nai is suddenly no longer sleepy. She picks up her phone and tries to find Si Jing Yu’s number to call her, only to be stopped by Si Zheng Ting, “It is useless. Unless she calls you first, there is no chance of contacting for the next two or three months.”
Zhuang Nai Nai: …………….
What on earth happened?
Si Zheng Ting does not appear worried; that means that Si Jing Yu does this often. No need to worry about her safety, then.
Zhuang Nai Nai can only sigh.
At this moment, she is worried for Si Jing Yu. Never would she imagine the trouble that would follow her after Si Jing Yu disappears.
