"You want me to seduce him?"
"No. You only need to show up in front of him."
He was a possessive man, yet for the sake of his own interests, he sent her to the side of his sworn enemy, Fu Lingxi.
"Aren't you afraid something might happen between us?"
"He could never fall in love with you."
Song Qingyun's heart turned cold. He was right. Just as he didn't truly love her, Fu Lingxi wouldn't fall in love with her either.
Song Qingyun waited until the man who rejected marriage got married, only the bride wasn't her.
"Why did you betray me?"
"Wasn't it you who betrayed me first, by getting involved with Fu Lingxi?"
The scornful smile of her former lover cut into her like a knife. He had even harsher things to say, but she didn't want to hear another word.
The day Fu Lingxi took Song Qingyun to pick out an engagement ring, Gu Hexi's eyes were red as he demanded, "You dare marry him?"
"Fu Lingxi, do you know she's my lover? Don't you have a thing about cleanliness?
..."
She knew the lie would eventually be exposed. The hand clasping her lover's grew colder and colder.
Fu Lingxi let go of her hand.
Song Qingyun, who had been on edge the whole time, finally relaxed.
That day, she left in a hurry, or more accurately, fled in panic.
Only later did she learn that the gentle, composed Fu Lingxi had beaten Gu Hexi up, then ordered wedding rings engraved with their names after the fight.
