Proofread by He Li
Yuexi is frightened, quickly puts her hands before her chest, widening her eyes, staring at him incredibly.
"What do you want to do?"
Li Fengjue moves stiffly, and his expression is a little embarrassed. He throws a bag of bread at her, and then turns and goes upstairs.
Looking at the bread which has been torn into strips by him, Yuexi is confounded for a moment. Is this specially prepared for her?
She feels warm in her heart, and is a little bit touched. No one has treated her so well since her father died!
The next day, when Yuexi wakes up, the servant tells her that something has happened in Li Fengjue's company, so he went to deal with it, and he asked all the servants to take good care of Yuexi.
"Madam, let me feed you."
While talking, Mrs. Zhang, one of the servants, picks up the chopsticks and comes to her.
Yuexi quickly waves her hand, "No need, I can do it myself."
"But your hands ..." Mrs. Zhang finds herself in a difficult situation. After all, the master asked her to do it.
"It's okay. You can prepare some bread for me. That would be enough for me."
Yuexi is not a pretentious person. Unless she has broken her hands and feet, she would never act like a disabled person.
She finally persuades the servants to let her eat on her own. After a simple meal, Yuexi gets a call from Chen Ying.
"Yuexi, come over here and watch a big show!"
She wants to leave directly, but is unexpectedly stopped by Liu Rui.
"Madam, master said you have to rest and can't go out."
These people’s manners have made Yuexi uncomfortable and upset, but there is no other way.
She sighs helplessly, and says in a coquettish tone, "I'll go out for just a little while, and it will never be discovered by your master."

"But ..." Liu Rui looks difficult.
"I'm your madam. Are you afraid I would run away?"
Yuexi uses both hard and soft tactics. Finally, when Liu Rui is hesitating, she runs out so quickly, leaving Liu Rui with a complex complexion as she yelled behind.
Following Chen Ying's instructions, Yuexi comes to a cafe.
She glances around and finds that Chen Ying is sitting in a corner where is not easy to be discovered. She saw a man sitting upright in the left front. It is Ling Yun! And on his opposite sits the beauty hired by Chen Ying.
Chen Ying casts a look, and Yuexi immediately grasps the meaning of her look. She casually chooses a place, and sits down.
Because she is not too far away from Ling Yun and the beauty, it is easy to hear their conversation.
"Xiaoxue, why haven't you contacted me for so long? Do you know I'm worried about you, I miss you so much," Ling Yun says seriously.
He originally got a clean face. If you don't know him, you would be deceived by his appearance and think he is just an innocent boy.
He wears a straight suit and a blue shirt. His hair is clean, and his voice is slightly soft. He is so affectionate that ordinary girls will surely be fooled by him.
However, the person he is facing today has already known what kind person he really is, and now comes the great show.
The beauty on the opposite side curls up her lips, and her red lips are like fire. She smiles sarcastically.
"I'm really sorry, I have found a very rich man, and now I have no interest in you. My rich man has promised to give me a better life, so I am going to break up with you."
Her calm voice explodes in Ling Yun's mind, and his eyes widen, "What did you say?"

The woman chuckles a little, with contempt in her eyes. She stares at Ling Yun coldly and laughs, "Nothing is immutable. I don't like you now, so please don't entangle me from now on."
After saying this, she stands up and is going to leave, but Ling Yun takes her arm.
"Xiaoxue, you must be lying to me, right? I divorced for you, how can you ..."
Xiaoxue suddenly lets go of his hand and says blankly, "Your divorce is none of my business. That’s what you want, not my problem. Besides, we didn't do anything. Could you even want to make me pay you a wife?"
She sneers, and Ling Yun is so desperate at this moment. He is astonished, thinking silently that he can’t lose both the money and a beauty at the same time.
He strides forward, pressing Xiaoxue's shoulder, and threatens, "You have to pay for the breakup. Now that you have found a rich man, give me a million, otherwise I would not let you go easily! "
Xiaoxue sneers, watching Ling Yun finally revealing his real face. She raises her eyebrows slightly, using one hand to grab his arm, and then gives him a big shoulder drop. Then, Ling Yun is hit hard on the ground.
Afterwards, she does not forget to clap her hands, looking at the man on the ground with sarcasm.
"Do you still want to threaten me? If you ever appear in front of me again, don’t blame me for making you half-dead!"
After saying this, Xiaoxue smiles at Chen Ying who is not far away, and makes a gesture of victory, and then turns and leaves.
Ling Yun, who is lying on the ground, originally intended to keep Xiaoxue, but when he looks up, he sees Yuexi.
While, at this moment, she is relishing the taste of coffee with a straw, with a pleasant face.
On the contrary, Ling Yun's face is very ugly. He feels ashamed and regrets.
Until now, Yuexi finally understands Chen Ying's purpose of calling her over.
Right now, Ling Yun's humiliated appearance makes her feel so happy. It is like a revenge of everything she has suffered before.
She also hated this man once, but now, she just feels a little regretful, about why she would fall in love with such a scumbag at first.
After drinking coffee and watching the show, Yuexi is going to checkout. Suddenly a dark shadow appears in front of her, blocking her way.
"Yuexi, it's all my fault. I shouldn't treat you like that. Will you forgive me? Let's start again. I will be as good to you as before. Believe me!"
If it had been before, Yuexi would definitely be soft-hearted. Because before Ling Yun always said honey words to her, and she also loved Ling Yun deeply.
However, everything has been long gone now.
She looks at him with a poker face, chuckling, "When have you been nice to me?"
Ling Yun freezes and slightly opens his mouth.
In the past few years, Yuexi has been desperately sacrificing for him. Ling Yun has enjoyed all of it, but he has messed up everything aw well.
Yuexi takes a hundred dollars out of her bag and snaps it on the table, calling the waiter.
“I will take this gentleman's order."
Then she turns her head to look at Ling Yun and says calmly, "From now on, we are irrelevant. You walk your road, and I walk mine. I hope you won't embarrass yourself too much."
After saying this, she turns away chicly, and her straight back is engraved in Ling Yun's mind forever.
