Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

When she and Cheng Ziming were dating, they were still at school. Two students had not much of financial freedom and they were not materialistic. Their love was very simple. They would have a meal at Pizza Hut and watch a movie together. Later, she and Chang Ziming would walk back to the hostel together. However, Cheng Ziming would never wait downstairs until she’s safely in her room. When Cheng Ziming started working and they occasionally got to see each other, he would take the initiative to call a taxi for her. On the surface, his action might look gentlemanly but in fact, it was just allowing her to go home by herself. He had never taken the trouble to see her home and did not think much about her personal safety at night.

Lin Chu looked at Yan Beicheng. His dark eyes were shining in the dark confinements of the car, watching her gently.

Lin Chu trembled as she panicked slightly, even stumbling with her words, “I...I’m going up then.”

She quickly unbuckled her seatbelt and was about to get out of the car when he pulled her lightly on the arm. He did not use much force and Lin Chu did not attempt to shake him off. She stayed still quietly as she felt a burn on where he held on her arm.

She was facing the car door and was too embarrassed to look back. She felt goosebumps as she heard the sound of movement behind her and felt the heat emanating at her back. She felt Yan Beicheng coming close. His clean fragrance surrounded her.

“What are you hiding from?” Yan Beicheng’s voice rang in her ears. His deep, hoarse voice tickled her ears numb. It felt like his lips were just right by her ear, his hot breath was blowing on it. She trembled as she felt her ears burnt furiously.

Lin Chu did not know how to reply to him, so she just held her head very low. Yan Beicheng could not help but laugh at her honest reaction.

He moved forward and found her lips within the dark. But as her head was lowered, he could only manage to kiss the corner of her lips.

Lin Chu stopped breathing as he did not seem to move away. His face was almost pressing at her face. From the corner of her eyes, she could see his thin lips lightly pursed up, his breath was all over her trembling lips.

Lin Chu felt that her energy has depleted, her breathing was unnatural and erratic.

“I’d like to ask for a goodbye kiss from my girlfriend,” he said quietly. His low baritone was a little hoarse. It went straight for Lin Chu’s heart and her heart started to beat wildly.

“Have...Have a safe drive back. I’m going home,” Lin Chu quickly said as her face burned. She got out of the car and nearly fell as she went weak in the knees.

As the night breeze blew across her face, the heat on it dissipated a little. Without that intense pressure from the car, Lin Chu breathed with relief. She secretly looked back towards the Grand Cherokee that was still parked there and said to herself, “He’s really something. He keeps claiming that I’m his girlfriend. Did he even ask for my consent?”

She patted her face a few times to get rid of the heat and did not notice a shadow getting into the unit’s door.

She lowered her head to look for her keys. She was still affected by Yan Beicheng and had not completely recovered from it. Yan Beicheng’s car was still parked not far away.

For some reason, Lin Chu could not help looking back at him. She saw Yan Beicheng reversing his car to a spot where he can watch her. He then looked out the car window and waved at her.

Lin Chu, “...”

She blushed and quickly opened the unit door and entered. Her head was lowered and did not notice the person inside. She suddenly heard an angry voice call out, “Lin Chu!”

Lin Chu watched in surprise as Cheng Ziming angrily stood in the lobby of the first floor. This floor had no residents. Residential floors were from the second floor onwards.

Lin Chu’s face quickly cooled as she heard Cheng Ziming accused her in a rage, “Who was that man bringing you home?”

“That’s none of your business,” Lin Chu frowned and replied unhappily.

“That’s a luxury car. You’re not willing to let things go because of me, so, you went looking for a rich man? Lin Chu, it’s okay if you have no money, but you have to love yourself. Don’t be so shameless. Yes, I admit that I’ve let you down, but I don’t want to see you degrade yourself,” Cheng Ziming said in an enigmatic tone.

Lin Chu was so angry she laughed sarcastically. Cheng Ziming shook his head as if in disappointment, and said, “I’ve never thought that this thing between us could hit you so hard. I’m very disappointed to see that you do not have self-respect and not taking better care of yourself.”

Lin Chu interrupted him impatiently, “Cheng Ziming, you can stop pretending. How did I not see how narcissistic you are? How well do you think you are that you think I can’t forget about you? Do you think that I’m degrading myself for you? Are you dreaming? Please wake up. It’s none of your business on who am I seeing. I’m not being someone else’s mistress. He’s so much better than you are. You’re not even worthy enough to carry his shoes! Do you think I’m going to miss you when I have such a good man by my side?”

Cheng Ziming waved his hands in disbelieve, “Lin Chu, we’ve just broken up. How fast can you find someone? You’ve stayed by my side loyally for four years, it can’t be that those feelings would disappear overnight. You may say so, but you’re just lying to yourself. I totally understand.”

Lin Chu wanted to scream. Cheng Zimingg continued his narcissistic words, “I only hope that you can turn back while there is still time. Don’t degrade yourself. No matter what, we’ve been together for four years. I don’t want to see you walk down the wrong path.”

If Lin Chu did not have someone to compare him to, she would not have realized what a laughable jerk such as Cheng Ziming was. If Yan Beicheng was liked the clouds in the sky, then Cheng Ziming could be the dirty water in the sewers.

Cheng Ziming did deserve the Lin family. The saying of flocks of a feather would eventually be a family together described them well. They were all a bunch of narcissistic people who did not believe anyone but themselves. To say something so ridiculous proved that his shamelessness knew no bounds.

Lin Chu did not bother to speak more to him and told him, “Cheng Ziming, since we’ve broken up then let’s just leave it at there. Please don’t come looking for me anymore. It’s disgusting for me to even look at your face. You’ve continually asked me to stop bothering you since we’ve broken up but let me ask you this: when have I bothered you? When have I bothered Lin Yuwen? Which time didn’t the both of you came up to me to say disgusting things? Cheng Ziming, do you know that you are really annoying? Please, stop looking for me. I’m tired of it!”

After that, Lin Chu ignored him and walked towards the elevator. She wanted to quickly turn on the light of her bedroom for Yan Beicheng to get home earlier. The night was getting colder and it was not right to make him wait.

Besides, if she did not turn on the lights, he might think she has had an accident.

However, Cheng Ziming pulled her back after Lin Chu took a few steps. Cheng Ziming’s frustrated voice could be heard saying, “If you’ve let it go, then why did you sabotage me tonight? Do you know how much effort and hard work I’ve put in? How could you destroy all my work with just a few words?”

Lin Chu laughed out loud, “You’ve worked hard? Have you put in serious work into building a career with your bare hands or are you tired of having to work hard? Your only hard work was figuring how to seduce Lin Yuwen. If this is what you meant as working hard, then you’ve done good work. Cheng Ziming, I didn’t want to say much since we’ve broken up. I’ve already said that I’ve let things go, I’ve said that a jerk like you doesn’t deserve my attention. Yet, you choose not to believe me and continue provoking me. I’ve no feelings for you now. I even hate what you did. You and Lin Yuwen seem determined to force me into saying that I still have feelings for you to be satisfied. After that, you’ll just want to continue shaming me.”

“Do you think I’m so easy to be bullied? You claimed to have let me down and this is your way of apologizing to me? Do you think that I can’t leave you? Coming here all the time to clamor about? Only you are allowed to shame me but I’m not allowed to say anything? Besides, which words of mine have maligned you? Since what I said was the truth, what is there for you to confront me about? Cheng Ziming, I had always thought that you were doing this for money, and that would be your values and none of my business. But right now, I feel that you are a gigantic moving piece of garbage!”

“I don’t care what you say of me. I was the one that let you down first, I should be letting you shout at me. You’ve loved me for the past four years, which is why you hate me now, I understand. But I can’t stand by and watch while my efforts are destroyed by a few words from you,” Cheng Ziming held onto Lin Chu’s arm. Lin Chu wanted to push him away but did not manage to.

Lin Chu was frustrated and angry. Cheng Ziming still did not understand after she had said so much.

“Lin Chu, you should explain to the Lin family that you made up all those words, that you were just feeling hateful because you loved me once before. That it was an attempt to sabotage me,” Cheng Ziming said urgently. He pulled Lin Chu outside as if he wanted her to give her explanation right now.

“Cheng Ziming, you are crazy! I didn’t lie! Why should I say all those words? Let go of me! Do you think they’re stupid? Do you think they can’t tell if I’m lying? Besides, Lin Zhenghe has always been highly suspicious of people. Even I did tell them what you want, he is already suspicious of you and won’t continue to trust you. He is the kind of person who would not easily let go of his suspicion. You should just give up,” Lin Chu was hitting Cheng Ziming’s arm with her other hand.

“You!” Cheng Ziming got angrier. The thought of his efforts being destroyed by Lin Chu’s words with no hope of salvation made him tightened his grip on her. He wished he could just beat her to death.

Lin Chu frowned at the pain, “Cheng Ziming, stop going crazy at my house and let me go!”

“Nope. No matter if it works, you still need to explain yourself to the Lin family,” Cheng Ziming said. It did not matter if they believed her, he will just do whatever he can to salvage any little trust he can.

“Cheng Ziming, let me go! I won’t go with you. Stop bothering me and let me go!” Lin Chu said in a rage.

But Cheng Ziming refused to let go and pulled her towards the door. Lin Chu panicked and slapped him.

The slap stunned Cheng Ziming for a moment and he looked at her viciously, “How dare you hit me!”

He was already angry at Lin Chu for sabotaging him. The slap from Lin Chu had destroyed whatever reasoning left in him. He held up his hand as if to slap her back but his arm was suddenly hit viciously by a stick. His arm went numb for a moment.

Cheng Ziming let go of his hand and Lin Chu hurriedly retreated. A broom was shoved into her hands. She looked up and saw Xu Moyan holding on to a mop with an angry look on her face.

“Lin Chu, are you okay?” Xu Moyan asked.

Lin Chu shook her head. It was not convenient to talk to Xu Moyan here. The two of them had a great rapport and not much needed to be said between them. The two of them charged forward to beat up Cheng Ziming.

It was much easier when one of them had a broom and the other had a mop. Cheng Ziming might be a man but it was still difficult for him to fend off this attack.

“You crazy women!” Cheng Ziming shouted as he ran out of the door in a mess.

Lin Chu and Xu Moyan did not run after him. Xu Moyan felt that she did not beat him up enough, “Next time you come back, we’ll beat you again!”

Lin Chu did not have time to ask why Xu Moyan had come down. She quickly pulled Xu Moyan towards the elevator. The elevator was at the level they were at as Xu Moyan has just used it to come down. They did not wait long.

Lin Chu ran to her bedroom and turned on the lights the moment they stepped through the door.

Xu Moyan was curious, “What are you hurrying about for?”

Lin Chu blushed, “I...I don’t want someone to be worried!”

...

Yan Beicheng was still in the car waiting for Lin Chu’s bedroom light to turn on. It was taking a long time and he was worried something had happened to her. He was about to get out of the car when he saw someone running out of Lin Chu’s building looking like a mess. He was mouthing off angrily as he ran.

Yan Beicheng recognized him as he got nearer. It was Cheng Ziming. It looked like Lin Chu was delayed by him.

He was not worried about Lin Chu still having feelings for Cheng Ziming. Judging by the way he exited the building, it was easy to tell that nothing good happened to him with Lin Chu.

Cheng Ziming spotted the Grand Cherokee Lin Chu had come out from and sneered. He wanted to see the person inside the car but it was too dark and the car windows were tinted. He was not able to see anything, so he could only return to his BMW X1.

This was his newly purchased X1. He used to drive a Toyota but since dating Lin Yuwen, she had taken a dislike to his economical Toyota as it was not high-end enough.
