Translator: 549690339 |

Xiao Ji stood still in shock for a long time, his mind blank. He tried to recall what Su Hongxing looked like, but found he couldn’t remember her face no matter how hard he tried.

He panicked and began to search for his wallet desperately.

When he pulled out his wallet and saw its worn-out texture, his heart ached intensely.

This was the birthday gift that Su Hongxing had given him four years ago. That year, she worked part-time while studying, and after earning some pocket money, she spent an entire afternoon browsing stores to choose this wallet for him.

When she gave him the wallet, she bragged about it for a long time, saying it cost her three hundred bucks.

She advised him to cherish it, to keep it well-preserved. When she made good money, she would buy him an even more expensive, more tasteful wallet.

He pulled out a photograph hidden in the innermost part of the wallet. It was their couple’s photo taken in their sophomore year by Qiao Qiao. Su Hongxing was not as plump as she is now, they were carefree, both of them smiling happily, as if there were no worries in the world.

Back then, both Xiao Ji and Su Hongxing likely assumed they would be together forever, never parting.

Is there truly such a thing as unchanging love till death in this world? He surely loved Su Hongxing so much, yet he still could not resist temptation and chose Zhou Luhe instead.

Xiao Ji fell asleep clutching the photo, and dreamed an exceptionally long dream.

In his dream, he was leading Su Hongxing down the red carpet, and she was as beautiful as a goddess in this dream.

But in just a blink of an eye, she was gone from his hand and appeared in Ye Qilan’s arms.

The scene then shifted abruptly, showing Su Hongxing lying beneath another man…

Xiao Ji jumped up frightened from this nightmare, realizing it was morning. But the images from the dream seemed so real. He even saw the face of that man clearly. He recognized him, Beichuan, a man known for his womanizing ways in high society circles.

Throughout the morning, Xiao Ji could not focus on work, constantly thinking about the eerie and vivid dream. It felt so real that it scared him, he could even feel the heartache it induced.

After hesitating for a long time, he decided to give Su Hongxing a call, to gauge her reaction.

Su Hongxing was reluctant to answer Xiao Ji’s call.

She rejected his call several times, but Xiao Ji was insistent and persistent, until it attracted Ye Qilan’s attention.

Ye Qilan approached her, took her phone, and clearly read the caller ID, “Your ex-boyfriend is calling you, why don’t you answer?”

Is it because you have a guilty conscience that you’re not answering?

Su Hongxing snatched back her phone. The phone rang again, the caller still Xiao Ji.

She wanted to leave the office to answer the call, but Ye Qilan stopped her, “Answer it here, put it on speaker.”

Su Hongxing resented Ye Qilan’s domineering tone and didn’t want to submit.

Ye Qilan was impatient, grabbed the phone again, answered it, and then immediately put it on speaker.

“Xingxing, do you have time at lunch? There’s something I want to ask you.” Xiao Ji sighed in relief when his call was finally connected.

Su Hongxing glanced at Ye Qilan, then replied, “I’m very busy today. I don’t have time.”

“What about tonight? I really do have something to ask you. It’s urgent

“Just tell me what it is over the phone.” Su Hongxing interrupted Xiao Ji.

Xiao Ji paused for a moment, realizing that Su Hongxing was reluctant to meet with him. After hesitating for a while, he asked, “Do you know Beichuan?”

Upon hearing Beichuan’s name, Su Hongxing frowned, “Yes, I know him.. He’s a good friend of Ye Qilan, how could I not know him?”
