  Lin Jiayu was extremely honest.

  But, it felt extremely empty to Yu Gangan’s ears.

  “But, Lu Xuechen is a little……” Yu Gangan didn’t know how to describe the man. As a friend, he wasn’t bad, but as a husband, he didn’t seem very reliable.

  The thought of Lu Xuechen getting drunk in the bar, sleeping with a girl, pulling up his pants and not owning up to it, then finally abandoning the girl because he thought she was ugly and he felt like he suffered a loss, Yu Gangan felt he wasn’t someone to hand one’s life over to.

  Lin Jiayu understood what Yu Gangan was thinking, but she didn’t care, “I don’t expect to really do anything with Lu Xuechen. It’s just a contract marriage.”


  She lifted her glass and clinked it with Yu Gangan’s, “I want to make Lu Xuechen the nominal father of my child. Then after a year, I will divorce and change the child’s surname to mine. No one will look down on my child. It will receive all the best things in the world.”


  Her voice was firm.

  Her attitude was decisive.

  It was clear that she was set on her decision.

  Yu Gangan couldn’t say anything else. All she could do was help Lin Jiayu understand Lu Xuechen a little better.

  That night, Yu Gangan lay in bed and rolled around for quite some time. In the end, she picked up her phone and sent Fang Zhihan a message.

  She didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. Who wanted to invite him on a date?

  Suddenly, her phone rang. It was Fang Zhihan.

  Yu Gangan cleared her throat and sat upright. She then answered the phone with seriousness. Before Fang Zhihan said anything, she said hurriedly, “Hey, I want to ask you how Lu Xuechen is like as a person.”


  On the other end, Fang Zhihan did not make a sound. Dressed in a black suit, he stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window and stared into the distance calmly, like an emperor looking proudly over the world.

  He held onto the phone with one hand and kept quiet, “.……”


  After not hearing a sound for a while, Yu Gangan thought the phone had already disconnected, so she looked at the phone to check. When she confirmed that the phone was still connected like normal, she asked again, “How is he like?”


  The man remained silent and finally replied, “Did you contact me just to ask about Lu Xuechen?”


  Yu Gangan raised her eyebrows a little, “Yes.”


  “Do you care about him?” the man’s tone was suddenly cold as ice, low and dangerous.

  “No, that’s not it……It’s a long story.”


  “If it’s a long story, then let’s meet and talk in person,” Fang Zhihan said calmly.

  “Now?”


  Yu Gangan was shocked. It was already 11pm.

  “Do you have a seminar tomorrow morning?” Fang Zhihan asked.

  “No.”


  “Then I’ll be right over.”


  “But, I’m at Lin Jiayu’s place.” It wasn’t convenient for him to go over.

  “I know.” He was the one that took her there.

  Yu Gangan wanted to find another excuse, e.g. it was too late. But, Fang Zhihan had already hung up the phone.

  Since Fang Zhihan was on his way, Yu Gangan obviously couldn’t sleep soundly. After lying in bed lazily for a bit, she climbed out of bed and looked out the window.

  If there was no traffic, he could get there in 20 minutes.

  Soon, Yu Gangan saw a black SUV parked downstairs, glistening under the streetlights.

  Yu Gangan did not change clothes. Wearing cotton slippers and pajamas, she put on a down jacket and stepped out.

  Lin Jiayu was already sleeping. Yu Gangan was afraid of waking her up, so she muttered quietly, “Why did you come so late at night. Do you care so much about Lu Xuechen?”


  “I don’t care about him.”
