Ru Feng smiled, her gaze shifting, saying softly, “Qiu Chi, I know I have no chance with you, so how could I accept your kindness? In matters of feelings, if you don’t cut things off decisively, it might evolve into a greater tragedy.”
Qiu Chi scrutinized her, “Are you talking about Situ Sui Feng?”
Ru Feng was shocked, “How do you know?” With the Situ family’s power, this matter would surely be tightly sealed.
Qiu Chi curled his lips, “Do you think there are any secrets in this circle? The Situ family just wants to silence the media.”
Ru Feng looked dejected and said nothing.
Qiu Chi noticed her expression, “You’re not part of the Situ family yet, so there’s no need to look so grieved. Situ Sui Feng isn’t a good person either. Her husband was originally Situ Ru Feng’s boyfriend, and then got involved with her. Once their relationship became public, Situ Ru Feng disappeared. A woman who would snatch her own sister’s man is foolish! Creating such a suicide drama only brings pain to loved ones and joy to enemies.”
Ru Feng took a deep breath and forced a smile, “Anyway, Qiu Chi, thank you, but please don’t come again in the future. I just want to live quietly.”
Standing behind the counter, Qiu’s mother was shocked. No one knew better than her about her daughter’s obsession with Qiu Chi. Ten years—almost the most beautiful time of a girl’s first love—had been devoted to this man.
She thought her daughter’s promise not to provoke Qiu Chi was because he had completely rejected her. But now, why was she unwilling when Qiu Chi had come back?
Equally puzzled was Qiu Chi.
Perhaps only now did he realize that this woman’s abandonment was not a strategic retreat or a fleeting passion for Situ Qifeng, but a true determination never to return to him.
“Qiu Ruofeng, are you still you?” he asked.
Ruofeng’s heart was bitter. Of course she was no longer the same; “Qiu Ruofeng died the night you forced her to go to the Situ family.”
