Somewhat similar?
Zhuang Nainai considered this seriously. âThatâs true â their experiences are all too similar. Both of them lost their parents, had poor family backgrounds, relied on themselves to get out of poverty... If one didnât know their personalities, one would imagine them to be inspirational individuals!â
After saying this, Zhuang Nainai looked toward Si Zhengting. âBut what can we derive from these similarities? We canât possibly say that they admire each other up to the point of mutual attraction, can we? That Li Yufeng, with her love troubles, and Mi Nuo, with her inability to get the love she wants... decided to get together?â
Si Zhengting was speechless.
This woman was bright sometimes â that was true â but sometimes, she made people want to knock open her head to see the insides!
But he had become immune to her ridiculous reasoning a long time ago, so he simply paused for a while before continuing, âI mean, they look a little alike.ân/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
âLook alike?â Zhuang Nainai widened her eyes in disbelief. Instantly, the image of Mi Nuo and Li Yufeng sitting opposite each other at Starbucks came to mind, with their faces blown up.
Her eyes suddenly narrowed. If Si Zhengting hadnât said it, she wouldnât have noticed, but now that he had... she suddenly felt that the two of them indeed looked somewhat alike.
It was just that, normally, Li Yufeng would dress up as a rich lady, and her current old age meant that she looked very different from when she was younger. But Zhuang Nainai had seen photos of Li Yufeng when she had been younger.
When she had been younger, she looked very similar to Mi Nuo!
Zhuang Nainaiâs heart began thumping quickly. All of a sudden, she felt as if she had chanced upon a shocking secret, and she felt herself grow unsteady. Gulping her saliva, she looked toward Si Zhengting. âDo you mean...â
Si Zhengting narrowed his eyes. âLetâs verify their DNA first. Thatâll give us some clues.â
Zhuang Nainai nodded.
Si Zhengting furrowed his brows. âBut Iâm afraid that itâll take us some time to obtain the samples. Iâll get my people to do it as quickly as they can.â
Zhuang Nainai nodded once more. DNA tests had stringent requirements for the samples to be tested. For example, skin flakes werenât allowed, and even hair samples had to have their roots intact. If they were to obtain samples from Li Yufeng and Mi Nuo while they were in their currently wary state, it was going to be an uphill task.
By the time they reached home, it was already four in the afternoon.
As they opened the door and got off the car, they heard sounds of a scuffle coming from the living room.
The two of them walked in and heard Ding Mengyaâs raised voice. âOld Li, are you sure you donât want her?â
The butlerâs voice was timid and small. âNo, Madam, I really donât.â
Ding Mengya fumed, âIâm helping you out of goodwill, but youâre treating me like this!â
The butlerâs voice was full of resignation. âMadam, I know you treat me well, but I... I really donât want her.â
âYou, whatâs wrong with her? Why are you being like this?â
The butler sighed. âSheâs good in all aspects, but I just donât like her.â
At the door, Zhuang Nainai listened in confusion. She turned her head to look at Si Zhengting.
Si Zhengting curled his lips and coldly explained, âIâm guessing that Madam Dingâs found a prospective partner for Uncle Li again.â
Zhuang Nainai thought, â...Wow, so my mother-in-law has such a hobby?â
Zhuang Nainai didnât know whether to laugh or to cry. She shook her head and headed toward the living room while Si Zhengting tried to explain it to her. âBut Madam Ding hasnât introduced anyone to him for the past two years, so I have no idea whatâs going on this year!â
