Rendered speechless, Fu Qi stopped in front of Chen Yequ, ignoring his words. He raised his well-defined fingers and pointed to the coat on Chen Yequ’s body, getting straight to the point, “Lend this to me.”

Chen Yequ was at a loss for words.

Without giving Chen Yequ a chance to refuse, Fu Qi said, “Thanks.”

Today was the centennial anniversary of the establishment of the Law School at Nanxun University. The dean of the Law School specially invited Fu Qi to come back as a representative of outstanding alumni to give a speech to the students. Chen Yequ, on the other hand, stubbornly tagged along under the pretext of meeting new beautiful girls.

Fu Qi didn’t expect to run into that person here, let alone get wet. He couldn’t go on stage wearing a soaking wet shirt, and he didn’t have the habit of bringing an extra set of clothes when going out. So he had to borrow Chen Yequ’s suit jacket temporarily.

Two minutes later, Chen Yequ was left with only the suit collar, holding his bare arms exposed to the ridicule of the passing crowd. The weather was cloudy with rain clouds, the air was damp, and it was perfect for curling up in bed. Coupled with Qiao Ruoyang working overtime for a month straight, she was physically exhausted. By the time she returned home, she was already incredibly sleepy.

To avoid being disturbed from her deep sleep, she specifically set her phone to silent mode before peacefully entering slumber.

In the optimal sleep environment, Qiao Ruoyang slept soundly, and her phone on the bedside lit up several times, but she didn’t notice.

When she woke up, the sky was already pitch black like spilled ink.

Qiao Ruoyang groped for her phone on the bedside, and a faint light illuminated the pitch-black room. Her gaze focused, and she saw that Ning Yanlan had called her nearly ten times, fearing that something major had happened. She quickly dialed back, and the call was answered promptly.

“Yangyang! Wah!” Ning Yanlan’s tears, which had been held back, once again burst forth uncontrollably like an open faucet. She sobbed heavily, “That scumbag cheated on me. When I went there, the two of them were lying naked on the bed…”

Thinking of this, her heart ached, and her choked-up voice couldn’t form words, only the sound of sobbing.

Ning Yanlan had wanted to surprise her boyfriend and arrived a day early in Nanqu City, but unexpectedly caught her boyfriend cheating.

She had seen many melodramatic dramas, but it was still difficult to accept when it happened to herself.

“Where are you right now?”

Qiao Ruoyang got out of bed, nearly stumbling in her haste. Using the light from her phone, she turned on the lights and walked out of the room in her slippers.

“I’m… ” Ning Yanlan took a deep breath, her voice trembling with sobs, “I’m at your doorstep.”

Qiao Ruoyang had sent her address to Ning Yanlan. Although Ning Yanlan’s family was wealthy in Xuancheng, they had always kept her under their control since she was young, not allowing her to leave the jurisdiction of their home. She was unfamiliar with this place, and the only person she knew was Qiao Ruoyang. After leaving her boyfriend, she took a taxi here.

Qiao Ruoyang hurriedly opened the door and saw Ning Yanlan, dressed in a short pink dress, squatting against the wall, looking like a pitiful little rabbit.

Upon hearing the sound of the door opening, Ning Yanlan raised her swollen, teary eyes and, with a grievous look, hugged Qiao Ruoyang.

“Yangyang…”

“I’m here,” Qiao Ruoyang patted Ning Yanlan’s back and comforted her in a

loud voice, “It’s okay. It’s better to stay away from this kind of scumbag as soon as possible. I’m here, everything will be fine.”

After calming Ning Yanlan’s emotions, Qiao Ruoyang brought her luggage inside and learned that she hadn’t eaten yet. She cooked some instant noodles for her to eat.

“I won’t touch that love stuff anymore in the future,” Ning Yanlan vowed earnestly.

“Yeah, me neither…” for the eighth time.

Ning Yanlan blinked and looked at Qiao Ruoyang, who was checking her emails. “You won’t touch what?”

“High-voltage power lines.”

By the time Ning Yanlan had mostly recovered from her heartbreak, it was already 8 0’clock in the evening.

Qiao Ruoyang looked at Ning Yanlan, who was slumped on the sofa, hugging a cushion tightly, and said, “Stay with me for a few days for now, until you find a good place to move out.”

Ning Yanlan’s eyes were empty, staring blankly ahead, motionless, completely dispirited.

Qiao Ruoyang shook her head helplessly.

Suddenly, Ning Yanlan forcefully threw the cushion in her hand onto the sofa, and a glimmer of vitality flashed in her eyes.

“I want to indulge!”

“You must not let yourself sink into depravity because of a scumbag!” “Yangyang, I just checked, there are many bars along Wukang Road, let’s go there!”

Qiao Ruoyang was rendered speechless and mused, “Just checked? Are you sure it wasn’t premeditated?”

“No,” Qiao Ruoyang lifted a ceramic cup, took a sip of water, and slowly walked towards her, “Bars are a mix of all sorts of people. Although I like making friends, I’m not so desperate to go to that extent..”
