"Brother Qin, are you in the room? Are you okay?"
A faint voice and knocks echoed from the door.
I recognized that voice. It was Su Yan, my ex-fiancé's new fiancée and a junior from the same department as Qin Wang.
I remember a month ago, right after my family went bankrupt, my ex-fiancé Lu Yao couldn't wait to cancel our engagement and publicly announce his relationship with Su Yan.
He no longer remembers how, without the Shen family's support, he, an illegitimate child, could have steadily gained a foothold and expanded his influence amidst the brutal struggles of the wealthy families.
I didn't force him to break off the engagement. I simply hoped that, for the favor the Shen family had given him, he would raise his hand and lend them a helping hand.
But he held Su Yan in his arms and openly taunted me:
"Who needs your Shen family's help? It was you who were the ones who were the ones offering to help me. Yanyan is kind and gentle, and she's the one I truly love."
Then he publicly announced his relationship with Su Yan, leaving me standing there, ridiculed by everyone.
When the tree falls, the monkeys scatter; when the wall collapses, everyone pushes it down.
Now I see it all clearly.
If it weren't for this, I wouldn't have to take the risk of seducing my sworn enemy.
But I don't know what she's doing here.
Catch her in an affair?
After all, I heard that Qin Wang confessed his love to her in college and was rejected, and since then, rumors have circulated that he couldn't get Su Yan back.
No wonder he and Lu Yao have been sworn enemies for so many years.
Even if he's attracted to me now, there's no guarantee he'll still have feelings for her after seeing her.
Besides, looking at Qin Wang's condition...
I seriously doubt I can handle this.
It's best to run away.
