As he thought about this, Si Zhengting couldn’t help but laugh.


Zhuang Nainai glared at him angrily. “You have the audacity to laugh about it! If I could turn back time, I would’ve ignored you back then!”


As she said this, she turned and stalked off toward the field.


She couldn’t take this lying down. If that tree was still there, why had those words disappeared?


She was going to look for it. It was as though by looking for it, she would be able to recover their past selves.


Si Zhengting trailed after her.


It was already dark. The streetlights cast a long shadow of their figures.


As it wasn’t winter nor summer break, all the students were attending their lessons at the moment. The sound of students reading from their textbooks in unison echoed from the cla.s.srooms, and it brought a sense of nostalgia.


Zhuang Nainai felt an inexplicable gush of emotions as she thought about it.


It was as though they had returned to the time when they were high school students.


He walked to her side and reached out to hold her fingers tightly in his hand.


Zhuang Nainai turned and looked at him. The yellow glow from the streetlights made him look more gentle than his usual stern and icy expression did. She pursed her lips, then suddenly said, “Si Zhengting, if we could turn back time, if I could go back to the past, I would definitely…”


Would definitely stay far away from him, right?


Thinking about all the hurt that he had caused her, Si Zhengting thought that she would definitely say that.


But he had never expected her to say…


“I’ll definitely tell you to your face that I’m your future wife! Do you think you’d have cast me aside if I’d told you that? I think this way of pursuing you romantically is way more formidable than what I did in the past — running after you and introducing myself to you!”


Si Zhengting was shocked.


Si Zhengting couldn’t hold his emotions back. The corner of his lips curled up and he smiled. It was as though flowers had suddenly blossomed in her heart — Zhuang Nainai suddenly felt a rush of warmth engulfing her whole body. Then she heard Si Zhengting reply as he gazed at her, “I wouldn’t.”


He wouldn’t?


This didn’t sound like something he would say though, right?


Then he added, “I wouldn’t find fault with someone who’s crazy.”


Zhuang Nainai was speechless.


As expected! She knew that he wasn’t that altruistic!


Zhuang Nainai glared at him, then briskly walked off, taking the lead.


They finally reached that small grove of trees. Zhuang Nainai weaved among the trees and finally stood in front of the pine tree. She turned around and gazed at him, looking wretched. She thought she sounded very poetic as she said, “Si Zhengting, our oath of eternal love has disappeared. Could it be that our oath only exists in the past?”


As Si Zhengting heard this, he couldn’t help but walk toward her. Then he suddenly lifted her into his arms.


Zhuang Nainai was surprised. “Hey, what are you doing?”


Si Zhengting said, “Look up.”


Zhuang Nainai was speechless.


Zhuang Nainai did as he told her to and saw a series of crooked words that she had carved all those years ago into the tree somewhere above her head.


She could see that she had scratched out most of those words. But below those words, there were a couple more lines:


Si Zhengting and Zhuang Nainai will definitely be together forever.


So that’s why they have been together.


Zhuang Nainai’s eyes suddenly teared up. She suddenly remembered that after she had scratched out those carvings all those years ago and left, he had slowly made his way over. He had seemed really hurt when he saw what she had done, and then he had picked up a stone and slowly carved the words back onto the tree.


She was still feeling sentimental when Si Zhengting’s phone suddenly rang.


He put Zhuang Nainai down, then answered the phone.


His expression suddenly turned serious. He looked at Zhuang Nainai and said, “Nainai, there’s been news of Mother Zhuang.”
