Spectacular fireworks illuminated the sky as Qin Zhigu wished her a happy twentieth birthday.

Qin Zhiyou looked at his empty arms. Not long ago, she was still in his embrace, her scent lingering on him, their lips entwined in a kiss. But now, she had returned to Qin Zhigu’s side.

In times to come, Qin Zhiyou would endure as long as he could, and when he couldn’t, he’d seek out Lu Weixi. On one or two occasions, he managed to steal a kiss, only to be hit by her numerous times, almost discovered by Qin Zhigu.

But he never regretted it.

If he hadn’t been persistent in his threats, perhaps Lu Weixi’s first time wouldn’t have been with him. He was a petty man who wouldn’t mind using underhanded tactics, even if it meant being resented by her.

No matter how turbulent their past was, Lu Weixi is now his wife. And the once-envied Qin Zhigu could only look on with longing. Though Lu Weixi didn’t love him yet, he was already grateful to the heavens.

At least, her first kiss and her first time were with him. She was his and only his.

Perhaps it was Qin Zhiyou’s words that reminded Lu Weixi of her painful past, coupled with his reckless behavior in the cleaning room. That night, she gave him the cold shoulder.

Qin Zhiyou knew it. During dinner at the mansion, everything was fine. But on their way back to their room, Lu Weixi leading and he at her heels, she abruptly slammed the bedroom door shut, leaving him stranded outside.

Qin Zhiyou, realizing his past misdemeanors, rubbed his nose and did not provoke her, but instead turned to the study. If it weren’t for Qin Zhigu’s infidelity and his fiance being the daughter of the rival Fang Family, Lu Weixi might not have ended up with him.

After Qin Zhiyou left for the study, Qin Zhigu came upstairs and remained silent for some time.

It was late when Qin Zhiyou returned from work to find the bedroom door locked from the inside.

He frowned and knocked on the door, “Wei Hui, open the door.”

No answer came from within.

He assumed she was bathing and pressed his ear against the door listening. Hearing no signs of movement, he knocked harder, “Honey, open the door.”

Still, no response.

Qin Zhiyou thought before dialing her number. Sure enough, her phone rang from inside. She was in the room, just refusing to open the door. She was probably angry.

He was about to knock again but fearing that the nearby Qin Zhigu might overhear them, he quickly sent her a WeChat message: “Open the door.”

This time, Lu Weixi replied remarkably quickly: “No.”

The two of them communicated via WeChat, each on either side of a door, refusing to talk to the other in person.

“Open the door, be good.”

Lu Weixi couldn’t care less and ignored him.

Qin Zhiyou sent another message: “Open the door, quickly.”

“No,” Lu Weixi retorted bitterly. The scoundrel had almost taken advantage of her back in the day just for his pleasure. And now he shows up at Siyi Company regardless of her job. If anyone discovered this, she’d be utterly humiliated!

“Are you going to open it?” he demanded urgently.

“I won’t,” she defied. Her resentment palpable, she stayed put in bed, adamantly refusing to open the door.

“So, you’re not opening it huh. Fine.” After sending this message, Lu Weixi heard his receding footsteps until all was quiet again.

Even though she had bolted the door from the inside, he had the keys to the old-fashioned lock and could easily open it from outside. If he comes back with the keys…. knowing his temper, she’d definitely be in for an exhausting ordeal!
