Xie Zhizhou had always looked down on his best friend's girlfriend, Wen Shuang.
That woman was a hypocrite, a social climber, two-faced, and greedy. She'd do anything for money, no matter how shameless. He could never be attracted to someone like her.
At every gathering, he kept as far away from her as possible, afraid she'd rub off on him.
He never expected the relationship to last two years, but on the 752nd day, they finally broke up.
Zheng Haozhe's engagement was put on the calendar. He broke up with Wen Shuang, who stared at him in disbelief. She froze for a moment, then tears began to fall.
She shed three tears, and Zheng Haozhe gave her three million in breakup money.
Everyone thought she was heartbroken and devastated. Only Xie Zhizhou noticed the corners of her mouth turn up as she left. She was grinning to herself.
He leaned back and swirled his glass. Now that was interesting.

From that day on, Wen Shuang disappeared from his social circle completely.
He next heard about her when Zheng Haozhe got into a huge fight by the roadside with her new boyfriend. His limited-edition sports car took a hit, leaving a dent in the bodywork, and the whole thing made the news.
That evening, Zheng Haozhe told him through tears that he'd called off the engagement. He couldn't bear to live without her. Even if it meant going against the whole world, even if they couldn't make it official, he still wanted to be with Wen Shuang.
Oh. He wanted to be the other man.
Xie Zhizhou thought Zheng Haozhe had gone crazy.
Even crazier, half a year later, he found himself sitting in his car, looking at the woman beside him, crying so hard she looked like a rain-soaked flower.
He realized he actually felt a little sorry for her.
He actually wanted to be the fourth man.
