Su Hongxing lived in a daze for a few days. She had always felt that what happened two days ago was unreal and refused to believe those facts.

How could Xiao Ji, who used to dote on her so much, marry another woman behind her back?

This night, she had the same dream. There was a man in it. She couldn’t see his face through the layers of fog.

The scenes in the dream were very chaotic, spinning rapidly like a lantern.

Just as she was feeling anxious, the fog dissipated and the man’s face entered her sight. It was Ye Qilan…

Su Hongxing woke up from her dream, sweating profusely.

How could it be Ye Qilan?

She went into the bathroom in a daze. After washing up and changing her clothes, she came out and saw a man sitting on the edge of the bed. It was Xiao Ji, who had disappeared for a period of time.

The man in front of her was suave and handsome. Ever since high school, he had been an influential figure. No matter where he went, girls would pay attention to him.

Such an outstanding man treated other women as nothing and only had eyes for her.

Ever since she was young, she had always been the apple of his eye.

She never thought that one day, he would suddenly let go of her hand and marry another woman behind her back.

Xiao Ji was flipping through their old photos. When he saw her come out, he pointed at the person in the photo and said, “Do you remember how this photo was taken?”

Su Hongxing leaned forward to take a look. At that time, she was still young. She was only five or six years old. She did not cry when she was pushed into the mud by the neighbor’s child. Instead, she giggled happily.

It was at that moment that Mrs. Xiao took this photo.

In the blink of an eye, so many years had passed. They had both grown up, and the boy who had been silently standing behind her had become a man. Now, he was also married.

Unfortunately, she was not his bride.

“Xiao Ji, don’t you have anything to say to me?” Su Hongxing took the photo album from Xiao Ji’s hand and decided to lay her cards on the table.

Recently, she couldn’t find Xiao Ji. If she missed this chance, she didn’t know when she would see him again.

“Xing’er, I miss you.” Xiao Ji’s eyes were deep as he stared at Su Hongxing.

He had guarded the girl in front of him since he was young. He had once thought of guarding her for the rest of his life. He did his best to protect her, not wanting her to be hurt by anyone.

But in the end…

As Su Hongxing walked up to Xiao Ji, her eyes were red. “Zhou Luhe was here. She showed me your marriage certificate with her. You already registered with her last month. If she didn’t come, when were you planning to tell me about this?!”

“I’m sorry, I…”

Xiao Ji wanted to touch Su Hongxing’s face, but she shook him off forcefully. “Don’t touch me! Didn’t I tell you that the cheapest word in the world is ‘sorry’? Why did it have to come from your mouth?”

Xiao Ji had never seen Su Hongxing so agitated, even when her parents divorced.

She was only a few years old that year. Her father had married someone else, and her mother had gone far away. She had been fostered in their family, but she did not have much emotional reaction.

He always said that the person who could make Su Hongxing cry in this world should be very happy, which proved that she cared enough about him.

He should be happy.

When her parents divorced, she did not cry. When she became an abandoned child, she did not cry either. However, after he abandoned her, she cried…

Xiao Ji hugged Su Hongxing tightly. She struggled in his arms and cried, “Xiao Ji, I hate you so much, I hate you so much…”
