Chapter 4: 4

Three years.

1095 days. Neither long nor short. I thought some partings were forever, but I had never thought I’d see an acquaintance again.

It was impossible to avoid him by then. He Zhizhou had already come in front of me. After kindly greeting Hu Lin, his gentle eyes fixed on me.

Those dark eyes were complicated and indescribable.

“Long time no see!”

These words sounded a little fake.

He left without a trace and came back silently. In the end, he tried to cover up the past with the words ‘Long time no see’.

How could it be that easy?

“Do you know each other?” Hu Lin asked.

“No!”

“Yes!”

We answered in unison. I was the former while He Zhizhou was the latter.

“Um, this…” Hu Lin was smart. After reading the situation, she said, “Why don’t you guys have a chat? I’ll go entertain the other guests.”

After Hu Lin left, our eyes met. I turned around and left first. Since we were already old friends, there was no need to pester me.

He grabbed my wrist and said helplessly, “Jiang Ran, I came back because of you. I couldn’t forget you.”

To be honest, when I heard that, I felt disgusted.

“Ha, what a coincidence. I also couldn’t forget you at all. Every time I see trash by the roadside, I think of you!”

Over the past three years, the person who was once carved into my bones had been removed, bit by bit.

When we were young and in love, we said many pretentious things. However, things were different by then.

He tightened his grip. “Jiang Ran, between us, as long as I don’t say goodbye, we will always have a future together. I believe you still have me in your heart.”

I couldn’t suppress my fury anymore. I abruptly flung his hand away and glared at him. My heart felt bitter.

“He Zhizhou, what are you doing? You left without a word and suddenly appeared again. What do you take me for? An animation figurine that you spent tens of thousands to buy? You locked it in the junk house for three years and didn’t care about it. When you suddenly remember it now, you take it out to wipe it?”

He furrowed his brows. “Jiang Ran, you know I’m not like this!”

I didn’t want to argue with him. I calmed myself down and said, “Whatever you do has nothing to do with me now. I’m already married and have become someone else’s legitimate wife. We won’t have any interactions in the future.”

All relationships have stages. There is no such thing as forever. A passerby must have the self-awareness of one.

People always have to say goodbye to the past.

He knitted his brows and said in a low voice. “Are you talking about Fu Hansheng?”

He raised his eyebrows slightly and mocked, “He might not be as good as you think. Your marriage is only on paper.”

I followed his gaze and frowned.

At the hall’s entrance, Fu Hansheng was strolling in while holding Su Li by her arm. The two of them seemed like a match made in heaven. They would inevitably attract the attention of others.

What did Fu Hansheng mean by this?

He called me over to attend the banquet, yet he appeared with Su Li in such a high-profile manner. Is he deliberately humiliating me?

At that instant, I couldn’t understand why Fu Hansheng would do that.

The surrounding whispers grew louder. Even if I tried to pretend I couldn’t see, it was too late.

Su Li’s grinning face was full of smugness. In comparison, Fu Hansheng seemed much more normal. His expression was as indifferent as usual.

He Zhizhou raised his hand and wrapped his arms around my shoulders, bringing my body closer to his.

Before I could break free, the two of them were already in front of me.

The smile hanging on my lips had already frozen, and my face was burning hot. In my heart, I cursed the bastard Fu Hansheng for not playing by the rules!

“Sister Jiang Ran, turns out you’re here too? I thought I wouldn’t see you today.” Su Li smiled and stood next to Fu Hansheng like a little bird.

This scene was too humiliating..
