[Blurb]

Ruan Jinyuan had been in love with Xiao Yushi for three years. During that time, Xiao Yushi had been extremely ambiguous with her, and it seemed all they needed to do to become a couple was break through one thin layer of paper.

Then, at a gathering with friends, Xiao Yushi suddenly brought his girlfriend along to meet everyone.

All eyes immediately turned to Ruan Jinyuan.

She had never felt so humiliated.

Like a complete and utter clown.

On the second day Ruan Jinyuan had been crying at home, an unexpected visitor suddenly showed up at her door.

They stared at each other in silence.

After a while, she couldn't help asking, "Is there... something you need?"

Like Xiao Yushi, the man had a handsome face. The bruise on it only added to his roguish air.

Leaning lazily against her doorframe, he said without a hint of seriousness, "Your buddy just did the world a favor and dealt with a scumbag. The others said we should make up for yesterday's get-together, so they sent me to pick you up."

Before she could react, he raised an eyebrow and added:

"Do me a favor and come along, Miss Gou?"

Later, on the day they were breaking up, Xiao Yushi sat drinking alone, irritated and restless. He turned and saw a row of familiar faces at the booth behind him.

Yu Yi and Ruan Jinyuan sat in the middle, catching his eye. More striking still was Yu Yi holding her close, sharing an intimacy Xiao Yushi had never had with her.

The moment their eyes met, she couldn't help glancing away uneasily. Yu Yi leaned over with a smile to whisper in her ear. To anyone watching, they looked like they were nuzzling cheeks.

But their actual conversation went like this:

"We're acting. Why are you spacing out?"

"He saw us."

"So what? Are you worried he'll get upset?"

"No."

He curled his lips into a smile and, without the slightest hesitation, stole the piece of fruit she'd just picked up with her fork. In a suggestive tone, he said, "Good. Otherwise, I might get jealous~"

"After all, I'm your real boyfriend now."

Ruan Jinyuan pursed her lips and said, sounding a little exasperated, "You're only pretending."

Yu Yi: "..."
