Her eyes filling with tears, Zhuang Nainai was shocked speechless.

She looked at him in silence, thinking she had recognized the wrong person.

She rubbed her eyes and looked at him once more. She saw the same man in a suit — formal, handsome, and cold.

It was indeed him.

Why was he here?

Zhuang Nainai was utterly confused and shocked. Still dumbstruck, she saw that Si Zhengting was making eyes at her leg, so she moved her leg away for him to squeeze past her.

He settled down beside her, his large frame suddenly making the space of the chair seem small.

Up ’til this moment, Zhuang Nainai was still stunned.

Was he going on a business trip?

But if he was heading to Chicago, someone of his status should be in the first-class cabin, right? What was he doing in the economy cabin?

So, if he wasn’t going on a business trip, what was he doing here?

Si Zhengting’s cell phone kept vibrating. Putting on his Bluetooth earpiece, he stared ahead as he spoke to the person on the other end of the line, seemingly explaining his work arrangements with regards to some big projects in his absence.

“… for Director Li, let’s wait until I get back… these few days won’t make much of a difference… just leave this project to the one in charge…”

His voice was low with a certain magnetism to it, and it drew Zhuang Nainai out of her shock.

She immediately made a “hic” sound. Having been crying earlier, she was now in shock, and the sudden transition was making her hiccup repeatedly.

Zhuang Nainai’s face reddened instantly, and she tried to press down on her own chest in the hope that she would be spared the embarrassment in front of him.

But a few seconds after pressing her chest, she uncontrollably gave another cough.

Zhuang Nainai rapidly picked up the mineral water she had bought earlier and violently drank a few sips, but she showed no signs of stopping.

Gosh.

Here she was hiccuping and choking, her eyes filled with tears and her nose full of mucus… how ugly and embarrassing it was!

Zhuang Nainai used her hands to cover her face, wishing she could just find a hole to hide in!

Just as she was struggling, someone suddenly gave her a hard pat on the back.

Shocked, she almost jumped out of her seat. Turning around, she saw Si Zhengting looking at her, his face still expressionless and cold.

He had finished his call and was now sitting quietly beside her.

Zhuang Nainai immediately asked, “Why did you hit me?”

Si Zhengting answered, “You’re no longer hiccuping.”

Zhuang Nainai was stunned, then she realized: she was indeed not hiccuping anymore!

She opened her mouth once, then twice. Finally, she managed to ask, “What are you doing here?”

Si Zhengting looked at her squarely. “Work.”

She knew he was going to say that!

All the love, concern, and care he had for her were always stuck in his heart, just like what happened with her passport. Would it hurt him that much to express himself openly?

Well, he had refused and had used such underhanded methods to hold her passport hostage.

Having thought this, Zhuang Nainai felt a surge of anger rising in her, and she decided to simply turn away from him.

She felt her eyes tearing. Sniffing and biting her lips, she suddenly saw a piece of tissue right in front of her.

Stunned, she turned her head, only to see Si Zhengting looking straight back at her. He slowly said, “Nainai, I don’t want to miss another five years.”

Chapter 448: He Doesn’t Want to Miss Another Five Years (6)

“I don’t want to miss another five years…”

That one sentence made Zhuang Nainai freeze.

Dumbstruck, she stared at him, suddenly realizing that, no matter how many suitors had chased after her all these years, she had never been able to walk out on her past. She had even entertained the idea of remaining single for the rest of her life and growing old alone.

But life had made them meet once more, and they had even become husband and wife…

Zhuang Nainai immediately felt her eyes reddening, and her feelings of hesitation began to waver.

Could she really bear to leave him?

Perhaps after leaving him, she would never again love and miss someone like how she loved and missed him…

At the thought of this, she wrinkled her nose. Did she really want to return to that five-year period, where everything seemed so heartless?

Just as she was hesitating, she felt his hand tightly gripping hers. He was simply looking ahead, his face stoic. She, on the other hand, stared down at their intertwined hands, unsure of what to do.

It was a few moments before she heard him say, “I’m not going to force you. You can think about it.”

She, think about it?

Think about what?

Think about whether they should be together?

Zhuang Nainai swallowed and lowered her head, sighing.

She stayed silent, her heart in turmoil.

Both of them were quiet all the way to Chicago.

Si Zhengting had left in a rush this time around. He didn’t have much money with him, and neither did he have his bodyguards with him — even Ji Chen was assigned back at the Imperial Group to oversee things. As they walked together, they now seemed like an ordinary couple without the usual airs.

He held her hand tightly, refusing to let go.

He knew she was anxious about her flight, so he had quickly bought them tickets to Kentucky and had waited in the departure lounge.

He followed Zhuang Nainai wherever she went until people began staring at them.

Being more open, the Americans began chatting them up and passing comments.

“Hello, you two seem really compatible!”

“Are you two in the dating stage?”

“Both of you are so cool-looking!”

Every time someone came up to talk to them, Si Zhengting answered them in English. In the beginning, she had difficulty catching what he said, but she soon caught hold of a few keywords here and there, like “wife,” “honeymoon,” and “grow old together.” Putting everything together, it could only mean one thing: “She is my wife, we’re here on our honeymoon, and we’re going to grow old together.”

Having heard all of this, Zhuang Nainai felt her face warming up, and she quickly lowered her head.

She had no idea how to describe what she was feeling; something warm and sweet was flowing through her body.

Actually, there were times he expressed his love openly… but why was it that they just couldn’t be together?

All sorts of feelings criss-crossing in her heart made her sigh. Putting everything to the back of her mind, she had just calmed down when she heard him say, “Are you hungry? Do you want me to get you something to eat?”

Zhuang Nainai raised her head upon hearing the warmth in his voice. Stunned, she nodded her head.

As Si Zhengting stood up and walked out, his handsome gait and silhouette made her feel like her eyes just weren’t enough to take everything in.
