Si Cheng was stumped by Tan Ming’s words and laughed self-deprecatingly. Indeed, he was the one taking the initiative now.
Si Cheng composed himself and looked at Tan Ming seriously. “I came to look for you today to apologize to you.”
Tan Ming widened her eyes and almost thought that the sun had risen from the west today.
Si Cheng told her everything about Ning Gang betraying him and deliberately giving him the wrong investigation report. That was why he misunderstood her at that time.
Tan Ming didn’t expect there to be so many hidden secrets, but the past was the past. She was very happy and satisfied now. She didn’t want to pursue it so much. She looked at Si Cheng and replied, “I accept your apology.”
When Si Cheng heard this, a look of joy appeared on his face. “Tan Ming, then move back with the children now. Our family can still live a good life like before.”
An indescribable expression appeared on Tan Ming’s face. “Some things happen. Just because I accept your apology doesn’t mean that I won’t get a divorce. These are two different things.”
Si Cheng looked puzzled. “The misunderstanding has been resolved. Accepting it is forgiveness. Isn’t it fine if everything returns to how it was before? Why are you still making a fuss?”
Tan Ming revealed a mocking smile. “Si Cheng, don’t you understand? The investigation report is just a fuse. You didn’t believe me then, because you’d rather believe Tan Si’s words than believe me, who had always been with you.” Si Cheng’s eyes flickered. After a few seconds, he said firmly, “It won’t happen again. I’ll choose to believe you in the future.”
Tan Ming smiled and shook her head. “Si Cheng, we can’t go back. Let’s move on.”
When Si Cheng saw that Tan Ming no longer had any reliance or love for him like before, he flared up. “You fell in love with Jiang Huai, right? You don’t love me anymore because you fell in love with him, right?!”
Tan Ming frowned and was speechless. “Can you stop thinking about pushing the blame to others all the time!”
Si Cheng sneered. “Are you angry from embarrassment? Did I hit the nail on the head? What sibling relationship? 1 think you’re just fooling people. Pfft! One’s surname is Jiang, and the other’s surname is Tan. Tell me how are you two siblings!”
When Tan Ming heard Si Cheng’s baseless guess, she looked at him disdainfully. “This is the trust you mentioned a second ago? Hehe, this period of time was really short. You don’t understand me at all! Our problem is that we’re not suitable for each other at all!”
“If you just want to apologize to me, I’ve already accepted it. I insist on getting a divorce. No one can change my decision.”
Without waiting for Si Cheng to reply, Tan Ming quickly walked to her house and opened the door to go home.
Si Cheng stood alone in the corridor and watched Tan Ming disappear at the door.
When Tan Ming returned home, she saw her parents playing with the babies in the living room. The television was showing the latest popular children’s cartoons, and the kitchen was filled with the sounds of the maids and confinement nannies cooking dinner.
The bad mood that Tan Ming had outside the door dissipated at this moment. Indeed, the comfort of regular life is most soothing to the ordinary man. During dinner that night, the confinement nannies began to feed the babies supplementary food. Tan Ming had weaned them off a few months ago. The two small wings of the Jiang family were now fed with milk powder and supplementary food.
Preparing for the new year was also a busy period for Jiang Huai. Jingdu City TV Station had invited him to participate in the gala performance on New Year’s Eve, and Jiang Huai had already agreed, so he had to fly to Jingdu City from Sea City often for rehearsals and rarely stayed here.
Jiang Hai took the opportunity to discuss the New Year’s arrangements with Tan Ming while they were eating. “Our Jiang family’s rules are that we have to return to our ancestral residence during the New Year. An’an, we have to visit the people you want to visit before the New Year. You have to go as soon as possible. We expect to set off back to Xiyun in three days.”
Tan Ming did not even have a good classmate or good friend. Before the new year, when everyone was busy paying visits, she was the most free. However, this year, her aunt was back…
Tan Ming thought for a moment and said, “I’ll go to my aunt’s house before the new year. There’s no one else I need to visit.”
Jiang Hai nodded. “She’s so good to you. It’s only right for you to make a trip there. When the time comes, I’ll follow your mother and prepare more gifts.” Li Mei asked, “Leave this to me. An’an, when do you plan to go?”
Tan Ming replied, “Tomorrow night. Let’s finish the matter as soon as possible.”
As it was almost the new year, Tan Ming had no work or scenes to film. Coupled with the protection of her big boss, Jiang Huai, her timings were very flexible. The next day, she prepared many New Year’s gifts with Li Mei.
At night, the driver drove Tan Ming to Tan Ron’s house..
