Chapter 425 - Don’t Blame Me
Even after she announced this name ‘Su Ke’, very few people really called her that.
Xia Ning curled her lips slightly and looked at President Zheng. “President Zheng, you are so serious. Did you want to talk to me about something?”
“Ziming did not grow up next to me so I know there are a lot of obstacles between us.” President Zheng sighed. “Back then, I had no choice. But it looks like he’s going to blame me for the rest of his life. As you see, after he came back, he never talked to me properly.”
Xia Ning looked to the front and her eyes were a bit foggy. “Actually, Ziming is someone with a sharp mouth but a soft heart. Back then, he really missed you. Sometimes, I would even see him holding your photos and crying in a corner. He’s also very strong and never shows people his weakness.”
“Even though I know you are just comforting me, Miss Su Ke, I’ll still take it,” President Zheng nodded and said.
Xia Ning shook her head and looked at President Zheng. She said with a smile, “No, I’m not comforting you. Because back then, I was jealous of Ziming. He had parents and hope for the future. I laughed at him too. A kid who was unwanted by his parents was just pathetic. But as time went by, we each became the person that the other trusts the most. That’s because we had the same hope in our heart that one day, we could live with our parents happily ever after.”
President Zheng stared at Xia Ning. In his memory, this was a cold and bossy girl who did anything she liked. Because she was born to own everything and could even take away everything from others. But today seemed to have changed his view of her.
“Miss Su Ke, why are you telling me this?” President Zheng said to Xia Ning in a low voice.
Xia Ning looked at President Zheng. “I’ve lived with Zheng Ziming for more than a decade. Maybe it’s even longer than you as the parents. I think it’s time for him to come back to you.”
“Miss Su Ke, you are saying...” President Zheng looked at Xia Ning with surprise.
Xia Ning moved her eyes away and looked at a few birds that were flying outside. She raised her eyebrows slightly. “He’s not young anymore. He can’t be following me forever and should work on his own career.” As she spoke, she turned to President Zheng. “I just don’t know what you think, Uncle Zheng.”
President Zheng stared at Xia Ning with shock. Seeing her serious face, he nodded and said, “Thank you so much, Miss Su Ke.”
Xia Ning curled her lips. “Uncle Zheng, you seem to have forgotten. Call me Xia Ning. As a matter of fact, I need to thank you.” She nodded slightly and apologized, “Back then, I was young and ignorant. Please don’t blame me.”
“How could we! We really thank you with all our heart!”
Xia Ning smiled and did not speak. After so many years, she needed to make some things clear. No matter what, she did not want Zheng Ziming to get hurt. This time, it rang the bell for her. If it was not for her, Zheng Ziming would never have driven that car.
From now on, there would be more things like this. She could not endure that feeling of panic again.
Zheng Ziming was her family and she would not let him be in danger. And Zheng Ziming had his own family. For his family, he could not get hurt. Let all the claws in the dark reach for her.
Just then, Xia Ning received a message on her phone.
Xia Ning nodded to President Zheng and took out her phone. She curled her lips a little. After all this time, it’s time to pull out the net! Good job!
In S City, in a remote motel room, He Hui was sitting on the bed holding his phone. Seeing the missed call on it, he sneered. Had he known that that woman was so rich earlier, he would not have had to worry. F*ck, she was so rich but she never wanted to give him any cash. That was cheap.
Seeing the jewelry and other expensive stuff left on the side table, He Hui put them back in the bag. He needed to run after stealing so much money from Lu Qing.
Just as he was all packed and ready to leave, the door was kicked open. A few people in police suits stormed in.
