Regardless of why she climbed into his bed in the first place, he knew deep down that it definitely wasn't because she loved him.
Perhaps she had drunk too much that night and treated him as Xu Jiamu's substitute, or perhaps it was because she was drunk. Either way, it had already happened, and there was no turning back. When he woke up the next day, he might have just randomly found an excuse to brush her off.
Deep down, he knew that the deal wasn't her intention, but he had hypnotized himself into believing it was real. He continued to make endless deals with her, comforting himself that he wasn't the one who betrayed his brother, Xu Jiamu. It was Qiao Anhao, that woman, who seduced him first.
He really wasn't pure, he was really bad, but he had no choice. He could only use that weakness against her, and do it again and again.
Eventually, their relationship started to improve, and he carefully protected her. In the end, he thought that if they continued to develop naturally, they would fall in love.
But when Qiao Anxia's recording pen landed in his hands, the way she had looked at the "Xu Jiamu" he had impersonated at the birthday party...
As it turned out, it was another whimsical dream that he had.
He was always like this. Even though he clearly knew that he was fantasizing, he couldn't help it.
...
At that thought, he clearly felt a sharp pain in the left side of his chest. He couldn't help but raise his hand to gently press against his chest, then put out the cigarette that was about to burn to his fingertips. He stood in front of the window for a while, then walked back to his desk. He pulled open the first drawer, and pulled out two torn pieces of paper. Piecing them together, he realized that it was a small, gold-inlaid greeting card. There were yellowed words on it, as though it had been washed by water. The words had already become a little blurry, but he could still make out the words: With you, Jinnian is safe and sound.
Madam Chen wasn't around. The entire villa was pitch black, and even the lights outside weren't turned on.
Qiao Anhao turned on the lights, and glanced at the empty living room on the first floor. Then, she dragged her heavy body up to the second floor. She pushed open the bedroom door, and with one glance, she saw the colorful balloons on the opposite wall. She instantly froze at the door.
Even now, she clearly remembered how she had been busy decorating the room the entire afternoon. In her mind, she couldn't stop imagining what kind of expression Lu Jinnian would have when he saw the scene.
Even though she was the one who gave him the surprise, at that time, she was even happier and more excited than if she had received the surprise herself.
Qiao Anhao stood in a daze at the door for a long time, then walked into the bedroom. She looked around at the balloons stuck on the walls, and in the end, her gaze landed on the words she had placed on the balcony using candles. Then, as though she had lost all her strength, she slowly squatted down, hugged her knees, and buried her head in them.
Even if she was stupid, she could tell that he was clearly venting his anger on her in the car.
But no matter how she thought about it, she couldn't understand how she had offended him to make him so angry.
The more she thought about it, the more wronged she felt. In the end, her shoulders started to tremble gently, and a soft sob drifted out.
