After training ended, Ruan Qi lay on the floor of the dance studio, exhausted and sleepy.

Tang Beibei helped her up. The floor was cold and Kuan Qi was covered in sweat. She would easily catch a cold if she just fell asleep like that.

Ruan Qi was sleepy and tired. She could only grit her teeth and get up to change her clothes.

The girls were going to spend Christmas together but Ruan Qi had promised Zhu Fan a date. When the two of them walked out of the dance studio, they realized that it was raining.

It was just a drizzle, bur it felt like cling wrap that stuck to one’s body: stuffy and depressing.

However, there was an attractive man in a white coat in front of them.

It was Zhu Fan.

He was holding an umbrella and two bottles of milk tea and smiling at them.

“Qiqi, are you cold?” He held the umbrella over Ruan Qi’s head.

“I’m fine. I only felt cold after I walked out. How long have you been here?”

“I just arrived.” Zhu Fan smiled and handed her a bottle of warm milk tea.

Ruan Qi saw that his shoulders were getting wet and felt a little apologetic. “You don’t have to pick me up when it’s raining. I can meet you there.”

Zhu Fan said, “Qiqi, you’re my girlfriend. We are going on a date. How can I let you meet me there? It’s not far anyway. Let’s go.”

Ruan Qi nodded with a smile. When Zhu Fan reached out to hold her hand, she avoided him subconsciously and created an awkward moment.

Zhu Fan apologized softly, “Sorry I was too anxious. Don’t be afraid. 1 won’t do anything to you.”

“Noted.”

Ruan Qi felt conflicted. When she looked up and saw Song Zhou’s car driving over, her conflicted feelings disappeared instantly and she grabbed Zhu Fan’s arm.

“Didn’t you say that you’ll take me to dinner? Let’s go. I’m quite a glutton.”

After Song Zhou stopped rhe car, he got out and ran to Ruan Qi in the rain without an umbrella.

“Ruan Qi, 1 have something to tell you.’¹

“Sorry,. I’m very busy now.”

Song Zhou stood in front of them, looking very miserable with the rain falling on him.

“Ruan Qi, I’m very sorry that I didn’t consider your feelings and hurt you.”

“Do you have something new other than apologizing?”

Ruan Qi sneered. “1 already said that it’s a game. When the game is over, don’t be too obsessed with it. Since you’re willing to keep yourself chaste because of your fiancee, you should stick to it. Don’t ruin yourself!”

1’he woman’s words were even more biting than the cold winter rain.

Song Zhou was also made of flesh and blood. How could he not feel rhe biting cold when he was blown by the cold wind and drenched by the winter rain?

But he had never been in a relationship. He didn’t know how to please a woman, let alone how to communicate his feelings.

“Ruan Qi, I’m serious now.”

Ruan Qi was surprised but she chuckled coldly. ‘Didn’t you want to keep your distance from me? I’m doing what you asked now. Whether you are serious or not is none of my business!”

Ruan Qi held Zhu Fan’s arm and they walked off together.

Song Zhou watched them walk away. His lips were blue from the cold, but he could nor say a word.

Tang Beibei couldn’t stand it anymore and walked up to him with an umbrella.

“Qiqi is still angry. She won’t listen to a word you say in her current state.”

“I made a mistake and she’s punishing me. 1 deserve it.”

“Let’s go home. It wouldn’t be good to catch a cold.”

When Song Zhou got into the car, he heard applause from the back seat.

“Playing victim now, huh? It’s too late now.”

Tang Beibei patted Jiang Jingchen. “Song Zhou is already feeling quite sad, and you’re still mocking him.”

“He brought this upon himself, and you blame me?” Jiang Jingchen put on an aggrieved expression.

Tang Beibei pinched him angrily. “Stop teasing him. You’re rubbing salt into his wound. Don’t be so mean.”

Jiang Jingchen rubbed her head as he said, “You’re quite smart this time to know that I’m rubbing salt into his wound.”

Tang Beibei could hear the sarcasm in his voice. She puffed up her face gloomily and asked, “Hubby, do you have a way to calm Qiqi down?”

“Yes.”

Song Zhou looked at him expectantly. “Young Master, what should I do?”

“Admit your mistake, apologize sincerely and make her breakup with the other guy as soon as possible.”

Song Zhou furrowed his brows, feeling torn. Asking Ruan Qi to break up with the other guy might hurt her. He was afraid of hurting her.

It wasn’t difficult to make Song Zhou and Ruan Qi spend time together. Song Zhou still had to practice with them for their dance at the New Year’s Eve Gala.

However, Ruan Qi seemed to have made up her mind this time to break all entanglements with Song Zhou. She was very well-behaved at dance practice and didn’t even look at him the entire practice.

During a break, Tang Beibei nudged Song Zhou before she walked out of the dance studio.

There were only two people left in the dance studio.

Song Zhou tried to make conversation with Ruan Qi, but she ignored him and questioned him expressionlessly, “Is this fun for you?”

“What?”

“Is it fun to toy with my feelings?”

“Ruan Qi, please let me explain. 1 never wanted to toy with your feelings. 1 wasn’t sure before bur I’m asking you now to give me a chance.” Song Zhou said earnestly.

Ruan Qi laughed and tilted her head to look at him for a while. “Let me ask you a question.”

Okay.” Song Zhou was nervous.

“If your fiancee calls you and asks you to do something now and I don’t agree, will you think that I’m unreasonable?”

Ruan Qi laughed self-deprecatingly when she didn’t hear an answer. “Your fiancee and 1 fell into the water at the same time. You’ll save her first, right?”

Ruan Qi immediately regretted what she said. She was such a fool. Asking him these questions already made her look unreasonable.

“Let’s talk about the matter at hand. Do this performance well with us. I’ll keep my distance from you. After all, I have a boyfriend.”

“… Ruan Qi, you’re quite a bastard.” Song Zhou said angrily.

“You’re the bastard, you…”

Song Zhou pushed her to the floor and held her down, his eyes red.

“You made me fall for you and then you cast me aside. Isn’t that what b*astards do?”

“I’m sorry for what happened before, but I’m the kind of person who would give someone a promise because she saved my life.”

He was agitated as he growled at her.

“I have tried to restrain myself with you, but you broke my defense time and time again. Now, you want to leave just like that? Ruan Qi, do you think 1 don’t have a temper?”

Ruan Qi was stunned and looked at him in surprise.

Suddenly, she laughed and took his hands off her.

“Well, so you’re that kind of person. But I’m the kind of person who would find someone else when you refused to play along when I wanted to have a fling.”

“I don’t want to be left alone and become a joke when that woman calls you away again like she’s beckoning her dog.”

“Song Zhou, you bullied me just because 1 fell for you first, right? You a**hole!”

“No, I didn’t. I will never bully you.”

“What nice words you have. If 1 ask you to cut off all contact with that woman now, will you?”

This was impossible for Song Zhou.

He did not say anything because he would never be able to keep his promise. Ruan Qi sneered.

She did not need to think very hard to know what would happen in the future. She could already predict the many conflicts he would have with her because of that woman.

Ruan Qi appeared cheerful on the surface, but when faced with problems, she was a pessimist and an extreme one at times. Matters of the heart affected her greatly.

“You won’t. This means that you and I are not meant to be.”

“From now on, please keep your distance from me. And that’s your gentlemanly style, Mr. Song!”

Song Zhou held on tightly to her clothes, unwillingly to let her go.

However, the woman ruthlessly took his hand away, got up and tidied her hair before she walked out.

Song Zhou was the only person left in the dance studio. He turned to look at himself in the mirror. He looked pathetic and ridiculous.

“Will she be the one who got away?”

He stood up and dusted off his clothes to calm himself down.

“As expected, sweet romance is not meant for someone like me. I’ve hurt her and I’ve embarrassed myself.”

But he sighed softly as if he was talking to himself in the mirror that it was unacceptable..
