“To be honest, I want to hear the truth,” Li Zhenting’s eyes were fixed on her, his tone as cold as ice. “You should know my character.”

“Zhenting, I… I…” Shen Mei was at a loss for words, her nerves on edge.

“Shen Mei, I’ve already agreed to marry you, not because you were the girl who saved me and took care of me, but out of duty and responsibility. After all, you’ve already given birth to a son and a daughter for me. For the sake of the children’s happiness, as long as you can treat them well and raise them, I will fulfill my promise. Actually, today 1 just want to confirm if you’re being honest. If you don’t tell the truth, it means you’re not being transparent with me, and our engagement can only be canceled. It depends on your attitude,” Li Zhenting spoke slowly.

Back then, when he learned that the girl was Shen Mei, he was filled with excitement and fondness for her. But as time passed, he increasingly felt that she was not that girl.

Love is sensitive and delicate, only those who truly love can feel it.

Shen Mei was too different from that girl in many aspects.

However, he was unwilling to accept it and wanted to confirm why she pretended to be that girl to deceive him. Like last night, even though she couldn’t play the piano piece, she had Shen Ning pretend to be her and play it, which was clearly deception.

He stared at her with a dark gaze.

Shen Mei gradually calmed down from her initial panic.

Li Zhenting’s attitude was as she had expected.

She had always been afraid that Li Zhenting would expose this secret and abandon her, but now it seemed that she had won. The more candid he was, the more it indicated that he had truly let go of that past relationship and was ready to face reality.

After all, she was the mother of his two children.

“Zhenting, please forgive me,” she lowered her head, her fingers nervously twisting the hem of her sheer dress, tears of remorse streaming down her face. “It’s my fault. I loved you too much. That night, you were drunk and kept asking if I was Xiaofeng. I knew she was your true love, the woman in your heart. But at that moment, I didn’t want to see you in so much pain, and I wanted your love so badly that I admitted it. But afterwards, you never asked me about it again, and 1 forgot about it too.”

She pressed her body close to him, entwining her fingers with his, her voice as gentle as can be.

“Zhenting, please come out of it. People have to move forward. She’s already gone. Even if it’s hard for you, you have to think about Ding Ding and Lan Lan. They’re still young and need a father’s love. Besides, I love you so much that I’m willing to die for you. You have to believe that I won’t be any less than her.” She spoke while discreetly studying the man’s face, tears flowing incessantly. “Zhenting, who hasn’t had ignorant youthful feelings in the past? Let’s forget the past. In the future, let’s be loving and create a perfect family. That’s better than anything,” Shen Mei leaned into his embrace, sobbing softly.

Li Zhenting’s face remained expressionless as he slowly helped her up and said, “You focus on taking care of the children. The wedding will proceed as scheduled.”

He stood up and walked away.

“Zhenting…” came Shen Mei’s tearful voice from behind.

Ding Ding was standing at the door of his bedroom.

When Li Zhenting came over, he saw a tiny figure sitting by the door, huddled with knees drawn to the chest, looking very lonely and isolated.

His heart tightened.

“Ding Ding, what are you doing sitting here?” he asked in surprise.

“Mommy forced me and Lan Lan to go to bed, but I just want to wait for Teacher Shen,” Ding Ding spoke in a small voice.

Li Zhenting was taken aback and quickly asked, “Teacher Shen didn’t come?”

“No, she definitely drowned in the water yesterday,” Ding Ding replied, his lips pouting, his eyes reddened.

He no longer had his real mommy! How miserable!
