It's Never Too Late, and the Wind Is Free

After yet another disagreement with Liang Yuzhou about getting married,

he got up and went to the guest room.

At two in the morning, I went to apologize and make peace.

Outside the guest room, I heard him talking on the phone to someone:

“Dating and marriage are two different things. Xiaoyu can’t handle the rules of a wealthy family. I’m not marrying her for her own good.”

“I don’t have a suitable marriage partner yet anyway, so I’ll just take things one day at a time. She saved my life, after all. I can’t bring myself to be the one to end things...”

I didn’t push the door open and confront him.

I just went back to my room and lay awake until dawn.

Early the next morning, I sat down across from Liang Yuzhou’s mother.

“Is what you said before still on the table? I don’t choose Liang Yuzhou anymore. I want the money.”
