Snap!
Qi Muyu snapped off one of the long fingernails she had spent so long growing.
Zhuo Yao... could he have fallen for Xie Ran?
It had to be. The way he looked at Xie Ran was the same way he had looked at her all those years ago.
Gentle and doting, his dark eyes deep and lingering.
Perhaps he hadn't even realized it himself.
Qi Muyu was furious.
Yet, she couldn't show it. She couldn't let Zhuo Yao find out.
No matter what, she was going to marry Zhuo Yao and enter high society.
Zhuo Yao did not return to Qi Muyu's side; instead, he sat down right next to Xie Ran.
Qi Muyu took the initiative to sit beside him, acting aggrieved and pitiful. "A-Yao, are you angry with me?"
Xie Ran rolled her eyes.
This old "green tea" was just so annoying!
Zhuo Yao replied indifferently, "No."
Xie Ran sat for a while, feeling bored, and stood up. "I'm going downstairs to play."
Zhuo Yao watched her retreating figure with a touch of reluctance.
Lu Zhengting's phone chimed. He picked it up; it was a message from Shen Huaishuang. His expression softened instantly.
Shen Huaishuang: [When are you coming back?]
Zhuo Yao, seeing him beaming with affection, asked out of turn, "Who's that?"
Lu Zhengting replied as he typed back, "My wife. She misses me and is urging me to come home."
Zhuo Yao: ...
He shouldn't have asked.
Lu Zhengting stood up. "I'm leaving."
The others were speechless. Ever since Lu Zhengting got married, he had become a total "wife-slave."
