An Rui ran out of Huangting Hotel.

  Her tears fell like a string of broken pearls.

  Her mind was in a mess.

  Her heart seemed to have fallen into a deep valley.

  There was only pain!

  She kept running forward and the people who passed by her looked at her with strange gazes.

  She ran forward as if she could not see anything.

  She did not stop when someone called her from behind.

  Zhou Li called An Rui a few times. Seeing that she did not stop, he adjusted his glasses and quickened his pace to follow behind her.

  He did not call her again and kept a distance from her, following her.

  An Rui did not know where she was going. She was like a headless fly, dazed and numb to everything around her.

  Her mind was in a mess.

  She did not want to think about Shen Mingxiu anymore. She felt disgusted just thinking about it.

  Although they had only been dating for six months, her heart had been with him for the past three years.

  She felt like her youth had been fed to a dog!

  An Rui walked for a long time until her feet got wet and she could not walk anymore.

  She sat on the flower terrace by the fountain in the square.

  Zhou Li bought a bottle of water, walked over, and handed it to her.

  The tears on An Rui’s face had long been dried by the cold wind.

  Looking at the water Zhou Li handed over, she reached out and took it.

  She did not look at Zhou Li and said, “Do you think I’m very foolish? He has already done such a thing and you still think I can tolerate and forgive him!”


  Zhou Li kept a distance from An Rui. Hearing her words, he said gently, “Drink some water first!”


  An Rui glanced at Zhou Li. “None of you boys are good!”


  Zhou Li touched his nose and looked elsewhere.

  An Rui took a sip of water and felt that she should not vent her emotions on Zhou Li.

  Thinking of how he had followed her for so long, she stood up from the chair, holding her stomach and said, “I’m hungry.”


  Zhou Li looked around. In a small alley not far away, there was a barbecue stall. He asked An Rui patiently, “Do you want to have some barbecue?”


  “Okay.” An Rui walked toward the alley first.

  An Rui ordered a lot of things and even ordered a carton of beer.

  “Drinking alcohol is bad for your health,” Zhou Li advised.

  An Rui opened a bottle of beer and placed it in front of Zhou Li. “Stop talking nonsense. Just tell me if you want to drink with me.”


  Zhou Li said nothing more.

  After the waiter brought the bowls and chopsticks over, Zhou Li silently scalded them with hot water before passing them to An Rui.

  An Rui was immersed in her emotions and did not notice the small details Zhou Li had done.

  She kept drinking and ate little.

  An Rui did not know how much she had drunk, but she was a little drunk.

  She suddenly stood up and shouted, “I want to sing a song.”


  Many people at the barbecue stall looked at An Rui and some took out their phones, wanting to record a video.

  Seeing this, Zhou Li immediately walked over and advised people not to record a video.

  “She was sad today and was in a bad mood. She drank too much. Don’t record a video. Sorry to trouble you. I’ll pay for your expenses tonight.”


  Zhou Li had a scholarly aura and was handsome. He spoke gently and it was difficult to reject him.

  “We’re not recording a video and don’t need you to treat us. You’re her boyfriend, right? You’re such a nice person.”


  Zhou Li shook his head. “I’m her high school classmate.”


  An Rui closed her eyes and slowly sang “Happy Breakup”.

  She studied music and even when she was drunk, her voice was pleasant to the ears.

  In addition to her true feelings, many people at the barbecue stall stopped eating and looked at her.

  “You must have fallen out of love!”


  “This song is too touching. I want to cry.”


  “The girl is beautiful and has a good voice. Which boy doesn’t know how to cherish her and hurt her so deeply?”


  After An Rui finished one song, she waved at Zhou Li. “Senior Zhou, I want to go home.”


  Although she was drunk, she was not completely drunk.

  Zhou Li hurried over and held An Rui.

  He hailed a taxi by the roadside and helped An Rui in.

  After getting into the car, An Rui leaned against the window and told him her address.

  Half an hour later, they arrived at An Rui’s house.

  Zhou Li helped An Rui out of the car. As soon as they got out of the car, An Rui could not help but vomit.

  Hearing the sound, Mrs An walked out and frowned when she saw An Rui vomiting all over Zhou Li. “What are you doing?”


  “Auntie, it’s alright.”


  Mrs An helped An Rui in and turned back to say to Zhou Li, “You’re Ruirui, right? Come in quickly, Auntie will find some clothes for you.”


  Zhou Li shook his head. He took off his dirty jacket and said to Mrs An politely, “I’ll go back and wash up myself. Auntie, quickly help An Rui into the house!”


  Mrs An wanted to say something, but Zhou Li had already left……

  After Zhou Li left the An family, he sent a message to Gu Yang and Ye Tian.

  “An Rui has returned home safely.”


  Gu Yang and Ye Tian believed in Zhou Li’s character. He would not hurt An Rui.

  Gu Yang, Ye Tian, and the rest were still at Huangting. They had not finished the meal, but no one was in the mood to eat.

  Shen Mingxiu sat on the sofa dejectedly, hugging his head with both hands, feeling extremely sad.

  Ye Tian had already understood what had happened. At this moment, she was angry at Shen Mingxiu.

  “Alright, there’s no point in everyone here. I’ll send Old Shen back later. Everyone, disperse!” Gu Yang said.

  Ye Tian got up and Gu Yang sent her to the door. After she got into the car, she turned and returned to the room.

  Shen Mingxiu’s eyes were bloodshot and he tugged at his hair. “Brother Yang, I really like An Rui. Thinking that I won’t have the chance to be with her in the future, my heart is about to break.”


  Gu Yang pulled Shen Mingxiu up from the sofa. “Have you ever thought that you and An Rui don’t get along very well? You always think that she’s important because you did something wrong. You don’t cherish her when you’re together. How can there be such a good thing?”


  “We’re already at this point. The best compensation you can give An Rui is to give her time and space to heal her wound. At that time, you can apologize to her solemnly. Their relationship won’t be ruined!”


  Shen Mingxiu hit his head hard. “I really f*cking want to beat myself to death!”


  “It’s useless to beat yourself to death. Let’s go, I’ll send you back.”


  After Gu Yang sent Shen Mingxiu home, Gu Yang drove around the city.

  Later, the car stopped at the inpatient department of the Royal Hospital.

  He sat in the car, ate a mint candy and looked up at the inpatient department.

  After some time, he pushed open the door and got out.

  After asking the doctor on duty, he found Xu Wei’s ward.

  Standing by the window, he did not go in.

  Xu Wei was lying on the bed and should have fallen asleep.

  His complexion looked worse than before and he had lost a lot of weight.

  A nurse came over in the middle of the night to check on Gu Yang and asked, “Are you the patient’s family?”
