Ruan Nanxi was both daring and reckless, yet strict with herself. The most carefree thing she'd ever done was probably show up at her childhood friend Jiang Wuyan's wedding shortly before graduating from college, wearing a fur coat that was only thirty percent new, with a complete mess of makeup, convinced she was making quite an entrance.
In front of all the guests, she dropped to her knees and cried like a tragic heroine. "Jiangjiang! We're having a baby! I'm already two months along. The baby can't grow up without a father!" (Heaven knows all she had in her stomach was last night's hot pot!)
Jiang Wuyan lowered his eyes and watched her act for a while before slowly crouching down to meet her gaze. His fingertip gently brushed her eyeliner, which had smudged halfway to the heavens. His smile and touch were equally gentle, but his voice was cold.
"I only got back from Boston last week, and it's been quite a while since we..." His voice trailed off. He leaned close to her ear and clearly whispered the last two words. Then he gave a soft laugh, his voice turning even colder.
"Ruanruan, where did this baby come from?"
Ruan Nanxi felt guilty and wanted to dig a hole and flee. Every time she lied to him, it ended badly.
But before she could start digging, Jiang Wuyan scooped her up in his arms. Then, amid the gasps and murmurs, he declared, his voice ringing with authority:
"The wedding is off."
"The mother of my child and I have some scores to settle." As he said it, he looked down at her with a smile, but there wasn't a trace of warmth in his eyes.
