“Xing’er, I love you. It’s true. Wait for me. One day I’ll…”

Before Xiao Ji could finish, Su Hongxing slapped him hard.

Her eyes were red from crying and she looked at him as if he was her enemy. “Don’t talk to me about love. That word is as cheap as the word ‘sorry’! I won’t wait for you because I’m getting married too.”

She had been looking for him, wanting to hear him tell her that the marriage certificate Zhou Luhe showed her was fake.

It turned out that it was not an illusion.

Like her parents, Xiao Ji had finally abandoned her.

They had all doted on her endlessly but abandoned her during her happiest time.

Since he could not protect her until the end, why did he have to promise her that he would never abandon her in this life?

Everything was fake. Oaths were as worthless as tears; they were as easily destroyed as bubbles.

Xiao Ji was so anxious that his eyes turned red. “Xing’er, don’t say such angry words. You’re not such a casual woman…”

What answered Xiao Ji was the sound of Su Hongxing slamming the door.

Seeing that Su Hongxing’s eyes were red and swollen, Mrs. Xiao quickly blocked Su Hongxing’s way. “Child, who bullied you? Is it that brat Xiao Ji? If you’re wronged, tell me. I’ll help you teach him a lesson!”

Su Hongxing sniffed and shook her head. “Mrs. Xiao, I’m not eating breakfast. I have an appointment with a classmate. I’m in a hurry.”

Mr. and Mrs. Xiao treated her like their own daughter. She didn’t want her elders to worry about Xiao Ji.

She walked out of the neighborhood and looked at the pedestrians on the street. However, she did not know where her life was headed.

She thought that she was going to marry Xiao Ji after graduation, so she was not in a hurry to find a job. She could slowly find a job after marriage. If possible, Xiao Ji could probably arrange a position for her in his company. She once thought that she could be with her husband.

Plans could never keep up with changes. How could she know that Xiao Ji was married and the bride was not her?

From now on, she could no longer include Xiao Ji in her plans.

This realization terrified her. She could not imagine how she would live without Xiao Ji in the future.

After Xiao Ji got married, would he and Zhou Luhe have to stay at home? What about her? Could she continue to stay with the Xiao Family and face him and his new wife as if nothing had happened?!

On such a hot day, Su Hongxing was extremely cold. It was as if her bones had been frozen.

She was originally a woman with no ambitions. As long as she could eat and sleep well, she was satisfied.

However, if she left the Xiao family, wouldn’t it be wishful thinking to eat and sleep well?

Just as Su Hongxing was looking around blankly, a Range Rover stopped beside her.

“Miss Su, Mr. Ye wants to see you!” Bai Chen opened the car door.

Su Hongxing bent down to look at the back seat. Ye Qilan’s handsome face entered her sight. He was sitting elegantly in the back seat.

This man exuded a noble aura from head to toe. Every move he made was elegant. His handsome side profile and handsome facial features seemed a little blurry under the light.

She suddenly remembered the dream. His face appeared in the dream.

Without further thought, she got into the car and sat beside Ye Qilan. She asked in a low voice, “Why me?”

Compared to the other four women, she was too ordinary. She was so ordinary that she disappeared in the blink of an eye in the crowd.

To be precise, she was ugly. Only Xiao Ji would not mind a fatty like her.

No, in the end, even Xiao Ji disliked her…

“You’re pleasing to the eye,” Ye Qilan said concisely.
