Zhuang Nainai let out a sigh and walked back into her house. Packing her belongings, she made sure she had everything she needed, including all her identification documents.
Due to the fact that it was a pregnancy, she had to use the identity of Gu Qingyan to register with the hospital. After all, Si Zhengting had registered their marriage using the name of Gu Qingyan, so she packed in all of Gu Qingyan’s documents.
Putting all the documents into her bag, she was just about to leave the house when she heard someone knocking on her door.
Zhuang Nainai turned her head. Who would be looking for her at this time of the day?
Unless... it was Si Zhengting?
At the thought of this, Zhuang Nainai walked over to the door, curious. As she opened the door, she found Ding Mengya standing outside.
She looked as if she was in a rather bad shape; she even had a scar on her face that showed itself even though she had tried to cover it up with face powder. That scar was left over from what Mother Zhuang had done to her.
Seeing the scar made Zhuang Nainai even more sure of herself that the person who had gone to look for Mother Zhuang at the time... was Ding Mengya.
She furrowed her brows instantly, and anger began to burn in the depths of her heart.
Fighting to suppress her emotions, Zhuang Nainai stared squarely at Ding Mengya. Even though Zhuang Nainai was tempted to give Ding Mengya a few slaps, or maybe even give her an earful, Zhuang Nainai held back at the thought of the fact that she was Si Zhengting’s mother.
Forcing herself not to think of how much harm Ding Mengya had caused her life, she blocked Ding Mengya’s entry into the house and instead coldly asked, “What are you doing here?”
Ding Mengya was unruffled by her attitude; it seemed as if she had already expected such hostility.
Meanwhile, Si Zhengting was still shocked at what he had just seen.
He had not expected Madam Ding to come.
He didn’t intend to get out of the car. The hatred that Nainai expressed every single time she talked about Madam Ding made him wonder if the character that Madam Ding had shown in front of him for the past 20-odd years had all been a sham.
He trusted Madam Ding, but he also trusted Zhuang Nainai.

Yet, the footage from the convalescent home made it clear that Mother Zhuang recognized Madam Ding.
That made him realize that there were probably still some parts to Madam Ding that he was still unaware of.
But watching the two of them interact right now made his heart tighten.
He had always thought that they would be cold to each other at the very worst. But now, it was much more than that — they were enemy-like and hostile.
He stared ahead, silently watching the two of them.
Ding Mengya stood outside the door. Pursing her lips together, she slowly said, “A few days ago, Zhengting called me to ask about your mother. The more I thought about it, the more I felt something was up, and so I asked someone to find out what was going on... I had no idea that things were like that. Zhuang Nainai, I’m here to apologize to you.”
Apologize?!
Five years ago, she had also tried to cover up everything with a simple apology. Now, she was doing exactly the same thing. Was she trying to make them return to how it had been like five years ago?
Was a single apology going to make all the hurt disappear and bring Mother Zhuang back?!
Zhuang Nainai’s eyes were red due to agitation. Biting her lips, she let a few moments pass before she gritted out a reply, “I don’t want your apology. I just want my mother to come back.”
Ding Mengya nodded her head. “I’ve already sent people to look for her. Don’t worry, I’m sure we’ll be able to find her.”
She, not worry?
She had worried too little — that was why her mother was in a situation like this!
