Her words made Si Zhengting pause.

She walked past him in her pajamas, a jacket over her shoulders. With nothing in her hands, she ran down the stairs.

The comfortable and roomy knitted pajamas that he had bought for her earlier billowed outwards as it followed her movements.

Her body seeming like a butterfly, it was as if she would fly away at any moment.

The fairness of her skin was accentuated by the white pajamas, where it seemed so fair that it was almost on the verge of disappearing.

At this moment, Si Zhengting made a move to grab hold of her, but he only managed to catch a corner of her pajamas. Before he could grip it firmly, the corner slipped through his hands.

That slight touch made his heart tremor.

His gaze followed her moving figure.

Her determined silhouette suddenly gave him the feeling he once had five years ago. The feeling that she was about to leave him.

His mind wandered for only a moment, but it was enough time for her to run downstairs, put on her running shoes, and leave the house.

When her silhouette finally disappeared past the doorway, his outstretched hand slowly tightened on itself.

The hate and anger a few moments ago had disappeared. What was left now was only emptiness.

Lifeless and zombie-like, he simply stood where he was.

Perhaps having heard the sounds, the butler emerged from the room once again. Seeing the figure on the second floor, he said, “Madam, you just chased Sir away again…”

Before he could finish, he realized it was Si Zhengting he was talking to. Stunned, he turned around to look at the room door, then at Si Zhengting, before finally asking in bewilderment, “Sir, the one who just left… was Madam?”

Si Zhengting stayed silent.

The butler immediately made a move to walk outside. “It’s really late now. I’ll go get Dazhuang to send Madam.”

Still, Si Zhengting was silent.

Turning around, he entered the study room.

He sat down on the sofa. The jacket that he had forgotten to remove was still on his arm.

He sat there with his gaze fixed ahead of him, but even he himself wasn’t sure of what he was staring at.

She was now gone. He felt as if his heart had left along with her.

Sitting alone in the large study room, he was at a loss as to what to do.

Was this how she had felt every time he walked out on her?

Lowering his head, a myriad of thoughts came to mind. He even thought of the issue with the $300,000 five years ago. Why couldn’t she have just cooked up a reason to make him believe her?

Was she aware of how hopeful he had been when she had told him that the reason for them breaking up wasn’t the $300,000?

And he would have believed her even if she had given him the strangest reason possible.

But of all the reasons… it had to be this one.

Si Zhengting closed his eyes.

On the day that she had mentioned, the day that the college entrance exams had come out, Madam Ding had been with him the entire time…

How was she even able to utter such a poor and severely flawed reason?

Why was she so… half-hearted even when trying to placate him?

Si Zhengting sat on the sofa, unable to calm his thoughts.

After a while, the door opened. Si Zhengting’s eyes flew open and immediately followed the butler’s movements. But behind him… was no-one.

Si Zhengting’s gaze fell, disappointed. Just then, the butler spoke. “Sir, Madam is missing.”
