Fu Shixian never imagined that the first time he would see Song Ci after their breakup would be at a club. Her hair, once long and flowing like a waterfall, had been turned into big waves. Her bold red lips made her look more worldly than before. Song Ci had just come out of the restroom when she nearly collided with Fu Shixian, his jacket draped over one arm. She looked up at her ex-boyfriend and former boss, her gaze calm and indifferent. Lightly, she said, "Mr. Fu, fancy meeting you here."

"People are saying our Mr. Fu is married. How could that be? That's complete nonsense!" Right in front of him, Fu Shixian calmly picked up a piece of food and placed it in Song Ci's bowl.
