She simply didn't dare to believe what she had just heard with her own ears! Since he already had a fiancée, why did he still pursue her so persistently in the past? After catching up with her, why didn't he mention it at all?

  Good heavens! What does Xu Shaoyan take Cheng Ziyi for?! They already have a marriage agreement, why is he still trying to win her over?! He clearly knows she's not good at playing the game of love, so why is he still trying to entice her into his web of emotions?! Why is he doing this?!

  As expected, Xu Shao Yan, this charming and flirtatious guy, was indeed playing with her...

  "Listen to me explain... I never loved her... The one I love is only you, the one I want to marry is also only you..." Seeing the intense anger and despair burning in Cheng Zhiyi's eyes, Xu Shaoyan panicked and hurriedly tried to explain to her. However, she didn't listen—

  "Are you deceiving me? Are you deceiving me?" Cheng Zhiyi shook her head in disbelief, her eyes already red with anger staring at Xu Shao Yan hatefully, and loudly shouted at him, "Why have you never told me about this kind of thing?! What do you take me for?! From the beginning, did you plan to play with me?!"

  "No! No!" Xu Shaoyan tightly grasped Cheng Ziy's arms, afraid that she would escape from his sight. He painfully furrowed his brow and explained to Cheng Ziy with a sorrowful gaze, "I fell in love with you at first sight, I liked you the moment I saw you! I never thought of playing with you, I just want to love you well, I just want to keep you by my side for a lifetime!"

  "Actually, I wanted to tell you, but I was afraid that once you knew, you would leave in anger. So, I thought it would be better to resolve this matter first... I had already told my mom that I wanted to call off the engagement with Bai Jie, but she didn't agree... However, I am absolutely not going to marry Bai Jie! As long as I don't marry her, my mom can't do anything about it..."

  Bai Jie? Bai Jie? Xu Shao Yan's fiancée is called Bai Jie?

  It turned out that the mysterious woman related to Xu Shaoyan, whom she had vaguely heard of, was actually Bai Jie, not "Bai Jie". She was Xu Shaoyan's fiancée, not one of Xu Shaoyan's former women!

  She had long expected that Xu Shaoyan's silence and abnormality in recent days might have something to do with a certain woman, but she never expected that Xu Shaoyan actually had a fiancée!

  "No! No!" No matter how hard Xǔ Shǎo Yàn tried to explain, Chéng Zhǐ Jūn couldn't forgive him. The tears she had just managed to hold back began to fall again, dripping from her already red and swollen eyes. "No matter what, you've been hiding something from me, that's deception! That's deception! Now, no matter how much you explain, what's the use!"

  She is a prosecutor who pursues the truth, and any sophistry or explanation cannot shake her determination in facing the truth - if you do wrong, you must bear the corresponding consequences, this is her unwavering "principle of matching crime with punishment"!

  "I'm sorry... I'm sorry... I shouldn't have kept it from you!" Xǔ Shǎoyàn pleaded bitterly, "Just forgive me this once, okay? I can't lose you!"

  He was really afraid, afraid that Cheng Zhiyi would not forgive him, afraid that she would no longer care about him, afraid that she would leave him! At some point, this woman had already taken root in his heart, taken root in his soul, and become an indispensable part of his life. If he lost her, his world would collapse, and his life would never be perfect again!

  This helpless fate, this destined love at first sight, makes him afraid of losing, makes him crazy for love, and makes him try hard to grasp something - a thread of life? A ray of light? Or a lifelong romance?

  "Why then... do you still want to take me to the dinner party?" Cheng Zhiyi burst into tears, "Now everyone thinks I'm one of the women you've played with, Ye Shao! Everyone thinks I'm the third person who broke your engagement with Bai Jie! Everyone thinks I'm a bad woman! You... have put me in such a humiliating situation!"

  "No! I didn't think of that!" Upon hearing Cheng Zhiyi say this, Xu Shaoyan's heart became even more flustered - Ah, yes, he really hadn't thought it through! He hadn't considered this aspect at all, only thinking about taking Cheng Zhiyi to the dinner party, but unknowingly falling into his mother and Bai Jie's trap!

  It turned out that these days, Xu Shaoyan had been arguing with his mother every day, saying that no matter what, he wanted to divorce Bai Jie. Last night, his mother finally gave in and said to let him bring Cheng Ziyue over for her to see. If she was a good girl, then it wasn't impossible to consider letting Xu Shaoyan marry her. As for Bai Jie, she could be taken as a goddaughter instead.

  Bai Jie, who had been sitting silently beside them, suddenly spoke up and said that since it wasn't a formal meeting, it wouldn't be good to bring Cheng Zhiyi home abruptly. She suggested that Xu Shaoyan take Cheng Zhiyi to attend the 35th anniversary celebration dinner of Tiancheng Group, so she could also take a look. If she too thought Cheng Zhiyi was a trustworthy girl, then she would be willing to help them be together.

  Then, Xu Shaoyan innocently took Cheng Zhiyi to attend the dinner party...

  He's a big man with rough branches and big leaves, how can he think things so intricately? How could he have anticipated that his own mother would dig a trap for him and Cheng Zhiyi to jump into? He didn't even consider Cheng Zhiyi's feelings...

  "Ah, I'm sorry...I'm really sorry...I didn't think things would be so serious, it wasn't intentional..." Xǔ Shǎoyàn couldn't help but deeply blame himself, hastily and flusteredly apologizing.

  In the face of love, he is the one who loves more deeply and is more afraid of losing, so he is destined to be the weaker one in front of Cheng Zhiyi. At this time, he doesn't know how to protect the flame of love that is about to go out in the wind and rain, and can only keep saying sorry, sorry...

  However, Jing Yiyi ignored Xu Shaoyan's apology. At this time, she was reading the ninth-grade literature.

She couldn't see the deep self-blame and despairing pain in his eyes - when faced with suffering, everyone only cares about their own suffering and can't see others' suffering.

  "Xu Shaoyan... I want to break up with you!" When she said the two words "break up", Cheng Zhiyi's heart felt as if it had been pierced by a thousand silver needles, throbbing with pain. However, she suppressed the pain in her heart and stared at Xu Shaoyan's sorrowful eyes, saying word by word: "From now on... we have nothing to do with each other!"

  Then she struggled free from Xu Shaoyan's powerful grasp and walked to the side of the road to hail a taxi.

  Break up... break up... no more connection... She wants to break up with me?

  "Beep——" a sound, as if the TV screen was suddenly blurred, Xu Shaoyan's mind went blank, standing still like a wooden chicken, watching Cheng Qiyin get into a taxi and then leave without a trace...
