  She had been looking at Qin Yinan out of the corner her eye as she raised the glass to her lips. Similar to before, Qin Yinan didn’t react in any way, much less stop her even when she finished the glass.

  Tang Nuan pinched her palm surreptitiously and placed the empty glass back on the waiter’s tray. Then she pretended to slip and fall into Qin Yinan’s chest. She could feel the man’s body tense for a moment, and after half a minute of silence, he slowly raised his hands.

  She knew the reason he hadn’t been contacting her was because he was sullen due to the fact she had ignored all of his attempts at apology. However, she only needed to play some tricks, and he would be back under her thumb. She knew he would then place his arms around her waist and ask her lovingly if she had sprained her ankle.

  Tang Nuan buried her face into Qin Yinan’s chest, and a confident smile blossomed on her face. However, before her smile could even reach her lips, the man’s hands landed on her shoulders, and he pushed her roughly out of his embrace.

  The burgeoning smile on Tang Nuan’s face shattered instantly, and she looked up at Qin Yinan with utter disbelief.

  Qin Yinan ignored her gaze and reached out for a glass of wine after he removed his hands on her shoulders. He then turned to leave without saying a word to her.

  "Qin Yinan!" Tang Nuan suddenly yelled his name. As the words left her mouth, she realized this was the first time she was the one to break the cold war between them in their relationship that had lasted for years.

  Qin Yinan stopped moving, and as he prepared to turn, the phone in his pocket started to ring. He pulled it out without hesitation and glanced at the Caller ID. His face froze for a moment when he realized the call was coming from Su Zhinian. Then, he answered it in a hurry.

  "Hello……"

  "Have you seen Song Qingchun?"

  "I have……"

  "When was this?"

  "About ten minutes ago……"

  "She is in danger now."

  "Huh?" Right then, Qin Yinan started to scan the venue for Song Qingchun’s shadow.

  "How would you know that?" As he posed Su Zhinian that question, he turned toward the direction Song Qingchun had headed down earlier. He was about the take the first step when Tang Nuan rushed before him to block his way.

  "I just do, okay, that is not important…… I don’t have time to explain it to you now. The most important thing is you have to go look for her and be by her side, quick!"

  "Okay, I understand. I will go look for her now, I’ll call you back when I find her." Qin Yinan was made worried by the urgency in Su Zhinian’s words. He hung up and was about to step around Tang Nuan when she pulled on his arm and demanded, "Qin Yinan, didn’t you hear me call you?"

  Qin Yinan, who was half-facing away from Tang Nuan, pursed his lips into a thin line and shook Tang Nuan off.

  Tang Nuan, who was wearing heels, was knocked off her feet and stumbled for a few steps back from Qin Yinan’s forceful shove. She eventually lost her footing and fell to the floor, screaming as she went down.

  Qin Yinan merely stopped for a minute before disappearing into the crowd without even turning around to look at her.

  Tang Nuan pinched the lower side of her arm to make sure she wasn’t dreaming. When the pain registered in her mind, her face started to twist.
