Chapter 134 You Don’t Need to Understand
This is something that goes against common sense.
Zhou Niantang thought, even though she couldn't see his expression clearly now, she could feel that he was not angry.
He was not angry or anything because of her accusations. On the contrary, he seemed to listen carefully.
But what's going on with this hand?
This suddenly reminded her of what he did in City S.
If those were because of Yun Zhi, then what about now?
He took the initiative to start a conversation, let her talk so much, and then he helped her wipe her tears.
She felt that her brain was not enough to think about such a complicated problem.
Moreover, he had clearly wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes with his fingertips, but he continued to stroke her eyes a few more times!
She panicked and turned her head to avoid his hand.
After Pei Shi was avoided by her, his hand paused in the air for two seconds before he gently put it down.
He sighed.
Afterwards, Zhou Niantang heard words that were even more incredible to her.
"sorry."
She thought she had heard it wrong, and subconsciously asked, "What did you say?"
The air was very quiet, and just when Zhou Niantang thought he would not repeat himself or would ignore her.
He said again, "I'm sorry."
Zhou Niantang was petrified. One day, she would actually hear an apology from the male protagonist's mouth!
Or twice!
She thought, when she got out, she must buy a lottery ticket to see if she could win the prize.
She didn't understand. In fact, she said all this just to make an accusation. Objectively speaking, from his point of view, there was nothing wrong with it.
The two sisters, one is like this, the other is like that, it's such a divisive thing, plus he has a strong self-esteem, he must be very defensive.
Furthermore, she had shown her goodwill for no reason at that time, so how could he not doubt her motives?
It was definitely impossible for him to easily accept her kindness, so this apology was truly a bolt from the blue for her.
Zhou Niantang felt that she was really considerate, even a little saintly, for she even understood the matter from his perspective.
What Pei Shi thought was that he shouldn't be too hypocritical.
He couldn't keep staring at what Zhou Yunqi had done in the past while ignoring the kindness Zhou Niantang showed him.
That would be unfair to Zhou Niantang, even though it's too late now.
And half of his apology was not spoken to her from the perspective of his youth, but because he now had different feelings for her and realized that he had misunderstood some things in the past, so he apologized.
The other half is about Zhou Niantang falling into the water.
He still hasn't figured out why he lost all his emotions at that time and stood on the shore indifferently.
It was as if he was just an outsider at that moment. This question still remains unanswered.
Only after Zhou Niantang was rescued by Yun Zhi did he come to his senses, but it was too late.
So when Yun Zhi questioned him, he thought about it again and again, and just coldly explained it using legal provisions.
He was certain that Zhou Niantang's drowning seemed to have broken some line of defense in his heart.
It was as if something broke through the ground, and from then on, he became less determined.
On the one hand, you watch someone die without helping, and on the other hand, you regret it afterwards, and then you develop other thoughts.
Pei Shi felt that he was crazy, and completely crazy.
"I won't bully you anymore." He was referring to what Zhou Niantang said about taking her to the grove and scaring her.
Zhou Niantang:...Don’t do this, I’m really scared!
After she said all that, she was planning to have a falling out with him, but she didn't expect his reaction to be so shocking.
She didn't know what to say for a moment, and the room fell silent again.
Zhou Niantang began to come back to his senses, pondering what he had just said.
I won’t bully her anymore, um... does that mean I’ll let her go?
What does this mean? Actually, as for bullying, he didn't seem to have done anything particularly wrong to her. If we have to say it, it was that he watched her drowning without saving her.
Zhou Niantang once again felt her head becoming confused, like a tangled mess, and she couldn't find the beginning or the end.
It seemed like she had overlooked something, and this thing happened to be the key to Pei Shi's abnormal behavior.
If she couldn't figure something out, her usual practice was to just stop thinking about it.
But at this moment, she felt for no reason that she had to get to the bottom of it and ask him clearly while he was in a good mood.
It would be best if he could leave a way out for his family.
"I don't quite understand what you mean."
Then he heard him sigh again: "You don't have to understand." At least it's good not to understand now, he thought.
Zhou Niantang was going crazy. She always felt that smart people like them always liked to say half and leave the other half, leaving others to guess.
But she is not a particularly smart person, so she really can't guess it!
"Please explain yourself clearly," she said. "You were the first to say it."
Zhou Niantang was quietly waiting for him to speak.
But Pei Shi stopped talking. He felt that if he continued talking, he would really expose his thoughts.
Although he just thought impulsively, he should let her know.
But in the end, reason still suppressed the chaotic emotions.
Zhou Niantang waited for a long time but got no answer. Just as he was about to urge him, he heard a noise outside the door.
Someone knocked on the door: "Tangtang, are you in there?"
It was Yun Zhi's voice, which suddenly broke the strange atmosphere in the small room.
"It's me, I'm here."
"It's locked up by Xiaoqi, wait a moment." The sound of Yun Zhi's footsteps could be heard outside the door.
Zhou Niantang felt that if Pei Shi didn't say anything, she would have no chance to get it clear.
In a hurry, she pulled down his clothes: "Why don't you explain it clearly? What do you mean by saying you won't bully me anymore? Don't you care about the past?"
Knowing that the "past events" she was talking about were referring to those about Zhou Yunqi, if Zhou Niantang could see his face clearly at this moment, he would see the struggle in his eyes.
He should have just said "impossible" outright, but he was hesitant and unwilling to say it.
Soon, he didn't even have the chance to say anything, because Yun Zhi was outside the door and deftly pried open the toy lock with a wrench.
The light from the corridor suddenly illuminated the small room, dispelling the darkness in the room.
The moment Yun Zhi opened the door, Zhou Niantang let go of the hand that was holding Pei Shi's clothes.
But even though there was no physical contact between the two, Yun Zhi, who opened the door, was still shocked to the point of being burnt on the outside and tender on the inside.
"You guys..." Her words got stuck in her throat as she looked at this and then that.
I always feel it's weird that these two people are locked up here.
Zhou Niantang regretted not being able to hear Pei Shi explain clearly what he meant, but he was also somewhat relieved that he was finally free.
She found that she would easily become distracted whenever she was alone with this guy.
"I was locked up here by your good brother. Fortunately you came. I have something to do in the store this afternoon, so I'll leave first." She said as she walked out.
When passing by Yun Zhi, Yun Zhi clearly saw her slightly red eyes.
When Zhou Niantang walked out, she looked at Pei Shi, who was a few steps behind, and asked him in a low voice: "Did you bully her?"
"No."
Yun Zhi wanted to continue asking, after all, it looked like Zhou Niantang had an idea that something must have happened between the two of them in there.
But Pei Shi had already taken out a cell phone from his clothes and started making a call. Then he just left, leaving her no chance to ask any questions.
