Chapter 483: Five Years On, It’s My Turn to Pursue You (3)

But… were they still suited to be together?
Zhuang Nainai pressed her lips together and tilted her head to rub the corner of her eye. She wanted to speak, but she found herself unable to say anything.
Without waiting for her to speak, he said, “You don’t have to rush to give me an answer. We still have time.”
By now, he was really grateful to the heavens for having been merciful to them in allowing them to still have some time for their wounds to heal.
If a year wasn’t enough, he would make it two; if two years weren’t enough, then five it would be; if five still weren’t enough, he was ready to make it a lifetime. They had a whole life ahead of them to let their wounds heal.
All of a sudden, Zhuang Nainai began crying. Using the blanket to cover her face, she began crying uncontrollably.
Yet, even though she was crying, deep down in her heart, she was at peace. It was as if she was crying out all her emotions to leave only calmness within herself.
The room grew quiet, where the only sounds were that of her choking. A while later, even the choking sounds disappeared.
Having cried enough, Zhuang Nainai raised her head from the blanket, only to see Si Zhengting staring at her. Surprisingly, his eyes had also turned a little red.
Zhuang Nainai was completely shocked at the sight. From the first time she met Si Zhengting up to now, she had never seen this side of him before.
She took a deep breath, then breathed again.
She wanted to hug him and tell him how much she loved him. She never wanted to leave him, but the moment she thought of Mother Zhuang, she found herself unable to say anything of the sort.
She paused, then eventually closed her mouth and kept silent.
But even though both of them were silent, the atmosphere in the room was still much better than before.
Si Zhengting brought her a warm towel for her to clean her face with, then poured her a glass of water. Slowly sipping the water, Zhuang Nainai took half an hour to finish it, all the while calming herself down.
It was only then that Si Zhengting asked, “Nainai, when your mother met with the car accident that year, why did you say that it was Madam Ding who had done it?”
Why?
Zhuang Nainai furrowed her brows.
She bit her lips. It was all because… she had seen the security footage.
She had clearly seen it from the security footage.
But she didn’t dare say this out to him.
All of a sudden, she thought of what had happened that year. After the police officer had told her the truth, she had secretly gone to view the security footage and had then begun searching for evidence of Ding Mengya having been the one who had run over her mother. Alas, she had found nothing and had then gone over to the police station to bring it up.
And then, what had happened next?
Her stupidity had almost ruined the police officer and his entire family!
The police officer had been fired from his job, and when she had gone to visit him and his family, he had begged her to let the matter slide. “I beg you, please… I really regret telling you about what happened! If you continue investigating it, I won’t even be able to make my living selling vegetables! Please, I beg you, forget everything I told you, forget this whole issue! Don’t tell anyone about it.”
She had then looked at how he was dressed in a plain jacket, simply selling vegetables and haggling with customers over mere cents. This was completely different from how his life had been beforehand. It was then that she had told herself to never tell anyone about the security footage she had seen.
To never tell anyone.
Raising her head to look at Si Zhengting, she asked herself, So… is he trustworthy?
If it had really been Ding Mengya, would he be willing to let her be charged in court, or even be sent to jail?
Zhuang Nainai lowered her head. She didn’t think so.
She pursed her lips.
Seeing her expression, Si Zhengting was unable to resist any longer. “Nainai, on the afternoon you were talking about, Madam Ding was with me in the hospital the whole time. I was slightly conscious then, so I’m very sure that she was with me, and so it’s impossible for her to have gone out to run your mother over!”
