Knowing the truth, Ding Manman is very sad. Although her parents did a lot of wrong things, she was unaware of all. “How can Zhong Shaoting vent all his resentment on me so recklessly? This is unfair! And how could he force my parents to sign an unequal treaty in which they are required not to see their son for ten years?” thinks Ding.
Thinking of the grievances she suffered at that time, Ding is sadder. She begins to treat Zhong coldly simply a moment after she has made up with Zhong, which leaves him no room for explanation.
How can Zhong, who has just felt the sweetness, tolerate her cold treatment? He tries every means to explain, but Ding always avoids that. Then they declare a guerilla war against each other where one hides when the counterpart attacks.
Several days have passed by, and Zhong finally can’t bear it, so he decides to take a tough measure to explain to Ding clearly. Otherwise, the silence between them is endless!
“Manman, I wanna have a chat with you.” Zhong blocks Ding who is about to leave.
Ding still cannot dispel the grudge in her heart, so she is ready to move aside after she has a glance at Zhong.
“Ding Manman, are you still avoiding me? I know you have me in your heart. I think you can feel what I have done to you for such a long time. Why can’t you give me a chance?” Zhong cries, which attracts Ding’s attention. Ding Manman feels wronged. It is Zhong himself who has done wrong things. Why does he yell at others?
So, Ding launches counterattacks, saying: “It’s you who did wrong. Why do you yell at me?”
“I yell at you? If you have a calm and sensible chat with me, do I have to yell at you? How many times have I humbled myself to make up with you in recent days? Do you give me a chance? ” Zhong says angrily.
Hearing his words, Ding recalls what happened in the past few days and finds it is really like that. After quieting her mood, Ding says, “Well, if you want to talk, I hope you can give me a reasonable explanation.”
“Manman, you resent me for taking revenge on you for my family. But do you know how old I was when I lost my parents and my brother, and how much I have suffered so far? How can you keep me from hating? ” Zhong says sadly.
Hearing his words, Ding begins to regret. “It seems that I has gone too far in the past two days. Moreover, I have never put myself into his shoes. If I were him, would I be willing to give up revenge because I fall in love with my enemy?” Ding thinks. But she doesn’t know.
Thinking over and over, Ding says, “I’m sorry, Zhong Shaoting. I was wrong. I apologize to you.”
Hearing this, Zhong laughs at himself and says, “Manman, I didn’t mean to make you feel guilty. I just want you to understand that everything I did is because I love you, including that I am willing to accept your family and give up revenge on you.”
Looking at Zhong in agony, Ding takes pity on him. But thinking of Ding Qi, she says indifferently, “OK, we won’t talk about the previous things. Let’s move on and talk about the recent events. Why did you force my parents to sign an unequal treaty? Don’t you know how cruel it is not to let them see Ding Qi for ten years? Don’t you say you’ve forgiven them for what they’ve done before? ”
Hearing her words, Zhong feels hurt, thinking: “Ding only considers her family and never cares about my feelings. However, she is the first woman whom I have fallen in love with so far. No matter how long it takes, how much energy I spend and how much harm I have to suffer, I will never give up her anyway!”
“Manman, you also know what your parents did before. Although your parents were not the murderers of my parents, it was also because of your parents’ failure to rescue them that resulted in their death. Besides, your sister was the hope of my brother’s survival. But she also abandoned my brother because of money, which led to his death. It can be seen that your parents’ character and deeds, and their influence on their children are not so good. ” Zhong explains to Ding.
Ding still doesn’t understand his meaning and says: “So? What’s the connection between sending Ding Qi abroad and forbidding my parents to see him? ”
Hearing her words, Zhong can’t help laughing. He thinks he has made himself straightforward enough, but how can she still not get his point? So Zhong says in a little more straightforward way: “This is to prevent Ding Qi from being corrupted by your parents. I am afraid of him going astray.”
“Zhong Shaoting, you’re taking it out of context. I grew up with my parents. Do you mean that there is something wrong with me?” Ding says in a slightly unreasonable fashion.
When Zhong hears this, he is in way over his head. How could Ding associate her brother with herself? So he says helplessly, “Manman, you are not. A large part of this has to do with your parents’ unconcern about you. But Ding Qi is different. Ding Qi is the apple in your parents’ eye. He spends most of the time with your parents and is sure to be affected by their words and deeds, right? ”
After Zhong finishes his words, Ding realizes that she is on the wrong side and doesn’t talk back anymore. But Zhong doesn’t know. He thinks he said something inappropriate, which made Ding angry and ignore him. After thinking about it, Zhong believes that Ding minds his listing her parents’ demerits, and says, “I didn’t mean your parents were bad. I just want to take precautions. Yeah, I don’t want to see Ding Qi go astray. In this way, I’ll make a new contract allowing your parents to accompany him on important holidays.”
Hearing Zhong’s words, Ding thinks: “Apparently, he really loves me. Otherwise, he can’t make such a big concession on such an important matter. I am already moved by the fact that he chooses to forgive my parents.” Therefore, Ding secretly vows that she will do her best to treat him and give him love that he has lacked for so many years.
Leaving her mind behind, Ding sees Zhong is still looking at her, and says, “Well, I forgive you. Sorry. I apologize for my inconsideration. Don’t refuse my apology. Don’t refute, either!”
Seeing Ding in a good mood, Zhong finally removes a load off his mind.
