Guangzhou~ I vaguely remember, it seems like after that young husband left, there was some kind of phone call from Guangzhou, am I confused?

What's the connection between Zhou Jin's trip to Guangzhou and this?

I arrived in the afternoon and saw so many replies. Before I even had a chance to check for updates, I read through everyone's comments and got happier and happier as I read them.

The best thing about this thread is that every argument ends in reconciliation and even greater friendship. Because everyone here supports Momo, we're all family, and we all came to this thread with sincere hearts. So I'm never afraid of seeing arguments here, because I know that sometimes disagreements lead to friendships.

I'm in a good mood and ready to check for updates. By the way, I've been here so long and Momo still hasn't kissed me... Um, anyone want to start a fight with me? Maybe I can earn a kiss from Momo...

I also find it strange.

How could a girl like Ling Benxiong not have a single suitor?

She's just a big bad wolf! And so hypocritical!

The two remained silent at first in the car. It was Jian Dongping who broke the silence.

"Did you give me the information about Su Zhiwen's case?" he asked, feigning ignorance.

"Yes. I made a copy myself." She didn't look at him, her expression showing a determination to distance herself from him.

"I might have to go out tomorrow or the day after," he said quietly.

"Really?" She immediately turned to look at him. "Where are we going this time?"

“I want to visit Zhou Jin’s hometown,” he said.

She stared at his profile for a while without saying a word. Jian Dongping vaguely sensed that she intended to go with him, but she didn't say anything.

"I'm used to being alone," he decided to say upfront.

"Oh," she murmured, then turned her head back. Her long hair, flowing freely, and her somewhat melancholy expression made the chubby girl look rather feminine.

“Ling Ge, let’s talk,” he said.

She didn't answer.

"Do you really want to break off our friendship?" he asked.

“Yes, I already said that last night.” She spoke in a cheerful tone.

"I almost got into a car accident on my way home last night."

She was startled and immediately turned to look at him. "Jian Dongping, are you alright? I'm sorry, I should have brought this up before you were driving. But I thought you were so carefree. You're not lying to me, are you? You really almost had a car accident?" Her gaze swept over him, as if searching for the location of his injuries.

Her concerned tone made him feel at ease. A new idea suddenly popped into his head, but he needed some time to think about it, at least 15 minutes, so he decided to talk to her about it in detail when he got to her house.

“Ling Ge, I’ve found Zhou Jin’s place,” he changed the subject.

"Really?" Her eyes widened. "How did you find it?"

He recounted how he found Zhou Jin's residence using the key.

"You're so smart," she said with a smile. He turned to look at her and suddenly noticed a bloodstain at the base of her hair on her forehead. What happened? Was she injured? She was perfectly fine last night. A sense of unease crept into his heart.

"Ling Ge? Why didn't you tie your hair up today?"

"I'm lazy. Do I look good like this?" she asked casually.

"What happened to the injury on your head?" he asked.

"Oh, I accidentally bumped into the cabinet. I guess the alcohol kicked in later," she said with an embarrassed smile.

"Who told you to drink so much!" Hearing her answer, he finally felt relieved.

A few minutes later, they arrived at Ling Ge's house. She couldn't wait to get out of the car and ran to the trunk. Jian Dongping slowly walked to her side, opened the trunk, and took out his sleeping bag.

“Let’s go,” he said. “I’ll take you home.”

"No need, just give it to me, it's not like I can't carry it." It sounded like she didn't want him to come to her house.

"I have something to tell you." Without waiting for a reply, he walked towards her house.

She followed behind him, her face darkening, and said irritably, "Jian Dongping, we've broken up. I don't want you at my house! No! You have no right to!"

Huh? She doesn't want him to come in. Why? The more she acts like this, the more he wants to go and see.

"What are you hiding in your house? A random man?" he retorted.

"You're no longer my friend! I don't want to see you in my house!" she shouted angrily as she chased after him, her words failing her.

Something's not right! The more she acts like this, the more Jian Dongping wants to go to her house.

He had expected her to shout all the way to her doorstep, but to his surprise, she fell silent as soon as she entered the hallway and quickly hid behind the stairs.

"What's wrong with you?" he asked, looking at her with suspicion.

At that moment, he heard a man and a woman coming down from upstairs, seemingly talking loudly.

"Who is that?" he asked her quietly.

"It's my ex-boyfriend and my girlfriend. They lived on the fourth floor, in my girlfriend's mother's house."

It turns out that Ling Ge lives in the same building as that despicable couple. I really feel sorry for her.

"Then why are you hiding?" Her weakness annoyed him.

"It's so awkward to meet them. They'll greet me, but I don't know what to say," she said pitifully.

Are you planning to hide from them forever? Jian Dongping glanced at her, reached out and grabbed her arm, forcefully pulling her out from under the stairs.

"What are you doing?!" she protested angrily in a low voice.

He tossed his sleeping bag and bag at his feet, then placed his hands on her shoulders, pinning her to the white wall in front of her house like Jesus on the crucifixion.

"Have you come down yet?" he asked her quietly.

"Not yet... Ah, it's coming down, it's coming down, let's hurry inside." She urged anxiously.

"Don't move!" he hissed, increasing the pressure on her shoulders. "Xiao Ge, please don't break up with me, I beg you, I can't live without you." He was confident his voice was loud enough to attract the attention of the two people coming downstairs. Ling Ge looked at him with surprise and disgust, involuntarily taking a step back. At that moment, her gaze drifted to his back.

"Hi, Ling Ge." The girl greeted him first. Jian Dongping put his hand on Ling Ge's shoulder and turned around. He saw a girl who was dressed more fashionably than Ling Ge, but whose features were not as pretty as Ling Ge's. She was looking at him with a look that was three parts curiosity and seven parts mockery. Behind her stood a handsome man wearing glasses.

"Yeah, it's been a long time." Ling Ge forced a smile.

"This is..." the man began. This was the bespectacled man who had dumped Xiao Ge. What did he have that gave him the right to abandon her? Logically, Xiao Ge should have been the one to break up with him first. A breakup line could have been something like, "Do you have strabismus?" "Why were you looking to the side while I was talking?" "Sorry, I can't date a disabled man." "Goodbye!"

“He is mine…” Ling Ge was about to speak when he was interrupted.

“Fiancé,” he said, then turned to look at her, running his hand through her hair as he exclaimed, “Alright, Xiao Ge, don’t be angry anymore. I’ve already apologized. You said you don’t want to go to Europe, so how about we go to Japan? We can eat authentic sashimi and buy your favorite Shiseido products. Actually, your skin is as smooth as dough even without any makeup. What do you say?” He turned back to the couple with a grin.

"Hehe, Ling Ge, your boyfriend really loves you. Congratulations!" the girl said insincerely.

He asked Ling Ge in the most natural tone, "By the way, where are my watch and ring?"

Ling Ge bent down and took out his watch and ring from his bag, handing them to him. He quickly put them on, saying, "I forgot to wear them this morning." Then he grinned and said to her, "Baby, you look so beautiful today. Your eyes are like chocolate, your nose like ice cream, and your lips like tomatoes. They make me so hungry. Let's go inside..." Ling Ge made a face as if he wanted to vomit. It was so cheesy! He couldn't believe he could say such cheesy things. Just thinking about it made him laugh so hard he almost burst out laughing.

"Oh, I won't bother you any longer, goodbye." The girl's voice came from behind him.

Seeing that Ling Ge seemed to be saying goodbye, he stared intently into her eyes.

“Ignore them! Look at me!” he commanded in a low voice.

"This...isn't this a bit inappropriate?" she whispered.

“This means you don’t treat them like human beings. From now on, when you see them, you can only speak to them using monosyllables. For example, um, ah, oh, eh… Look at me!” he whispered.

“I’m watching you…” She glanced nervously at him, then at what was behind him. “They’re gone.”

So he let her go.

"I've helped you get revenge, haven't I?" he said.

She glanced at him with her bright eyes but didn't say anything.

"So, may I eat the tomato?" he asked with a smile.

"What...tomato?" She was taken aback, and her face immediately turned red.

"Or we could eat pig's trotters, that would be fine too." He found it really funny; actually, he wanted to eat tomatoes more.

"Who's a pig's trotter! Get lost!" She broke free from him, turned her back, took out her keys, opened the door, and went inside.

She had forgotten to stop him from entering her house, so he followed her inside.

Upon entering the room, he was stunned by the scene before him, so shocked that he couldn't even speak.
