Three years after they broke up, his social media profile changed to: “Encounter.”
That was the day she learned he had a new girlfriend.
When they met again, she fled in a panic. A friend pressed her for an explanation, and she said, “When we broke up, I promised him that if we ever met again, we’d be strangers. I kept my promise...”
He held back his anger until the veins stood out on his forehead. “Lu Yichu, do you even have a heart?”
She faced him calmly. “I do, but not for you.”
Amid the glittering lights, he watched her chatting happily with another man, jealousy surging through him. When they were alone, he stopped her. Before he could ask anything, she spoke first. “I ran into your ex-girlfriend just now. Didn’t she come looking for you?”
Damn!
He nearly choked on his own breath.
Seeing him at a loss, she took his hand and placed her car keys in it, then smiled faintly. “I’ll give you a chance tonight. Drive me home.”
