What Should I Do If My Wife Runs Away?

Yu Shubai had always believed that Fu Wensheng truly loved him, until he accidentally overheard Fu Wensheng talking with a friend.

"Wensheng, you really like your boyfriend, don't you? Tell us, what do you like about him so much?" his friend asked curiously.

Fu Wensheng gave a derisive laugh and casually swirled the red wine in his hand.

"Him? He's only any good in bed."

"He dresses so tackily every day. It's a waste of that face. I'd be embarrassed to take him anywhere."

"He's so stingy and completely lacking in class. On top of that, he loves sticking his nose into everything, just like my mom. He's such a pain. How could I possibly like him?"

"I'm just having fun with him. I'll dump him when I get bored."

Yu Shubai felt as though his whole world were crumbling before his eyes. The noise around him ebbed away like a tide, the shrill cicadas seemed ready to pierce his eardrums, and even the air grew thinner and thinner.

Summoning the last of his strength, he turned and walked away. He never looked back.

The next day, after Fu Wensheng sobered up, he didn't see his boyfriend. Thinking he'd gone out to buy groceries like usual, he never imagined that Yu Shubai would suddenly disappear from his world.

"He doesn't want you anymore. Get lost," said Yu Shubai's only good friend.

Fu Wensheng searched everywhere like a madman, but never heard a word from Yu Shubai.

Years later, his father brought home a top-tier professional and introduced him. "This is Assistant Yu, transferred back from our overseas branch. You should learn a thing or two from him."

The man, immaculate in his suit, radiated an unfamiliar air of calm maturity. Gold-rimmed glasses rested on his high nose, and his eyes behind the lenses were cold and distant. He extended a hand with polished courtesy and parted his thin lips. "I look forward to working with you."
