Zhuang Nainais eyes widened. Are you threatening me?

Ding Mengya nodded. Yes, I am. I know you are fearless, but what about your mother?

Zhuang Nainais whole body shook in anger. She glared vehemently at her and said, Auntie, I never expected you to be someone like this!

Ding Mengya seemed to have found her weakness. Her long, slender fingers pushed the cheque forward again. Ten million dollars.

On the one hand, it was an enormous sum of money.

On the other, Ding Mengya had given a terrible threat to her and Mother.

Any female lead would have chosen to take the money in those tragic television dramas.

But not Zhuang Nainai.

Zhuang Nainai looked at the cheque on the table and curled her lips. Her gaze grew more sharp and determined. On account of Si Zhengting, I will call you Auntie again. Auntie, I know you are rich, but my mother and I are law-abiding citizens and never do anything bad. We are morally upright and have nothing to fear!

Ding Mengyas eyes glinted. What about your mother?

Zhuang Nainai replied, My mother will support me in whatever I do. So, I will never leave Si Zhengting!

She then paused and threatened back, Besides, you are the rich one who has everything to lose. My mother and I have nothing to fear. If anything were to happen to one of us, I will drag you down with us!

She then left for the door without looking back again.

At the glass door, she heard Ding Mengyas calm voice again. I will give you a few more days to mull it over.

No need.

Zhuang Nainai spat these words out and left.

She had felt that she had done a great thing. She even planned on showing off her unbendable moral integrity to Si Zhengting the next time they met, maybe even complain about his mother a little.

But she had been too naive.

Little did she know that her life would take a drastic turn.

It was still all dark on the quiet balcony. Zhuang Nainai grew pale recalling the events from five years ago and was still fearful and in disbelief.

Ding Mengya had shown her the ugliness of man and taught her how helplessness felt like.

However did she really break up with Si Zhengting because of Ding Mengya?

Zhuang Nainais gaze went through the glass window, through the distant mountains, and finally landed on the endless skies beyond.

She kept quiet for a while before finally saying, No.

Even after all that had happened afterwards, she had never wanted to break up with Si Zhengting, until that time

The man on the balcony looked at her, and his eyes dimmed.

He paused and slowly asked, Why, then?

Why?

Zhuang Nainai looked down.

Being able to speak so calmly now, she suddenly felt liberated.

The pain she had lived with these five years amounted to nothing.

They were rash and childish five years ago.

But now, they were husband and wife.

Zhuang Nainai curled her lips. Si Zhengting, you know me, no outsiders intervention could cause our breakup.
