Keeping the promise

At the same time, Li Yunting finished dinner with Qi Yue and returned home, only to find the house unusually quiet.

At this time in the past, Zheng Wancheng would always greet him at the door with a smile and give him a warm hug. However, today, when he walked into the house, he did not see that familiar figure.

The living room was empty and so quiet that he was a little uncomfortable. Li Yunting was full of doubts and walked upstairs while changing his shoes.

He went to the bedroom first and opened the door. It was pitch black inside and there was no sign of life.

He turned on the light, looked around, and found that Zheng Wancheng was indeed not there.

A feeling of uneasiness spread in his heart. Li Yunting frowned, walked downstairs quickly, called Mrs. Zhang and asked, "Mrs. Zhang, where is Wancheng?"

Mrs. Zhang hesitated for a moment, then said cautiously, "Master, Madam was in a bad mood when she came back today. She went upstairs without saying a word, and then for some reason she moved to the guest room, locked herself in, and didn't even have dinner."

Li Yunting's heart tightened, and he asked, "Did she say anything?"

Mrs. Zhang shook her head: "Madam didn't say anything, and I didn't dare to ask more."

Li Yunting's face turned gloomy. He paced back and forth in the living room, thinking about why Zheng Wancheng was in a bad mood.

Was he too busy with work recently and neglected her feelings? Or was there something going on at home that he didn't know about?

"Mrs. Zhang, was your wife okay when she went out today?" Li Yunting tried to find some clues from Mrs. Zhang.

Mrs. Zhang recalled carefully: "When she left, Madam was quite normal. She said she was going to eat after picking up the young master from school. Later, she seemed not to have eaten and asked me to cook for the young master. That was it."

When Zheng Wancheng in the room heard Li Yunting's voice, his heart tightened and he didn't know whether he should open the door.

Li Yunting felt that something was wrong, so he went upstairs again and came to the door of the guest room. He knocked on the door gently and said, "Wancheng, it's me, can you open the door?"

There was no response from the room, and Li Yunting's heart sank again. He leaned against the door and spoke in a softer voice: "Wan Cheng, I know you are in there. No matter what happened, tell me first, don't keep it to yourself."

Li Yunting's tone became more resolute: "Wancheng, I won't leave. If you don't open the door, I will wait here."

Zheng Wancheng in the room was a little shaken when she heard Li Yunting's words. She knew Li Yunting's temper, and he would do what he said. But she was still holding her breath and didn't know how to face him.

Time passed minute by minute, and Li Yunting just stood guard at the door with no intention of leaving.

Zheng Wancheng hesitated for a while, but finally got up and opened the door.

Li Yunting saw Zheng Wancheng's red and swollen eyes and felt distressed: "Wancheng, what happened? Why did you lock yourself up?"

Zheng Wancheng turned his head away and said coldly, "You know it clearly in your heart."

Li Yunting looked confused: "I don't know, please explain it to me clearly."

Zheng Wancheng listened to Li Yunting's confusion and could no longer hold back his anger.

Her eyes were red, and she shouted at Li Yunting: "Okay, don't you want to know? I'll tell you! Today I took Yunxuan to a restaurant for dinner, and I saw you talking and laughing with a woman, chatting so happily! Where do you put me?"

Li Yunting was stunned by her sudden outburst, and then he suddenly realized.

Zheng Wancheng became more and more emotional, tears streaming down her face. She asked him in a sobbing voice, "Li Yunting, is it because I'm pregnant, my figure is out of shape, and I'm not good-looking anymore, that you went to find another woman?"

She clenched her hands into fists, her body trembling slightly: "I am carrying a child for you, and I am very careful every day, but you treat me like this!"

Li Yunting hurried forward and wanted to hug Zheng Wancheng, but she pushed him away.

"Don't touch me!" Zheng Wancheng shouted hysterically, "Tell me, do you think I'm not attractive anymore and can't satisfy your curiosity?"

Her eyes were filled with disappointment and pain: "I thought our relationship was indestructible, but I didn't expect it couldn't withstand the passage of time and your change of heart."

As Zheng Wancheng spoke, he kept sobbing, as if he wanted to vent all the grievances and anger in his heart.

Li Yunting felt distressed and tried to get closer to her again. He explained in a gentle and anxious voice: "Wancheng, you misunderstood, you really misunderstood. They were just work partners. We were really just talking about cooperation, nothing else."

However, Zheng Wancheng couldn't listen at all at this time. She was immersed in her own sadness and anger and couldn't extricate herself.

Zheng Wancheng continued to cry and complain: "I shouldn't have stayed at home. This would only make me become unlike myself and start to become the person I hate the most!"

Li Yunting held Zheng Wancheng's shoulders tightly, looked at her firmly, and said, "Wancheng, calm down and listen to me. Since I met you, there is no room for anyone else in my heart. This is really just a misunderstanding. You have to believe that my feelings for you have never changed."
