Inside the Song family’s lively courtyard house.

Song Zhizhi led Yi Wenhan to a quiet corner in the back garden.

With no one around, Yi Wenhan could finally let his emotions out. “What do you mean by this? You’re announcing your marriage to Ji Baijian in front of everyone? What do you take me for? Do you think I’ll be your spare tire, Song Zhizhi?!” His voice was loud and a little angry.

Song Zhizhi finally saw Yi Wenhan get angry.

She sneered inside.

A spare tire?

You’re not even fit to be that.

But she did not want to flip the table just yet. That would be letting Yi Wenhan off too easily. No, she would take her time to return the favor!

She said, “If I remember correctly, we’ve never dated.”

Yi Wenhan stared at her with his eyes wide, stunned.

He absolutely could not believe that Song Zhizhi would say something like that.

Song Zhizhi clearly loved him deeply. She would always do whatever he said. What was with the sudden determined and cold attitude?!

Before Yi Wenhan could speak, Song Zhizhi continued, “Don’t forget, you said you can’t be with me because I have a marriage agreement, so it wouldn’t be right. That’s why, up to this moment, we’ve never been in an official relationship. That worked out well, because I’m getting married now, and as a friend, I wish to have your blessing!”

She was speaking facts. When they met in college, Yi Wenhan had approached her to show his affection. His gentle and understanding personality had attracted her. Because they got along well and spent a lot of time together, love started to bloom between them, but when Song Zhizhi took the initiative to confess, Yi Wenhan had refused, stating that Song Zhizhi had a marriage agreement and he was unwilling to be a third party. He claimed the education he recevied ever since he was a kid would not allow it.

Song Zhizhi did not suspect anything weird was going on. She did not suspect why Yi Wenhan would approach her and answer to her every whim but would reject her because she was engaged. She did not suspect why he appeared to hate the upper class social circle, as if he was above material pursuits. At the time, she even felt that she was indeed the one in the wrong, so she secretly decided she would look for Ji Baijian the moment he returned to the country to call off their engagement.

In hindsight, it was all a scheme of the poisonous Nie family. Yi Wenhan had kept up an ambigious relationship with her in order to make her call off her engagement as soon as possible, to lure her deeper and deeper into their trap.

Yi Wenhan was so angry that his eyes were bloodshot. “You better not regret it, Song Zhizhi!” he shouted.

Because Yi Wenhan had always been in the dominant position in their relationship, it was naturally impossible for him to lower himself to make peace right now.

Song Zhizhi smiled coldly.

Why would she regret it?

The only thing she regretted were her stupidity and the sacrifices she made in her past life.

“Okay,” Song Zhizhi nodded.

Seeing Song Zhizhi’s indifferent attitude, Yi Wenhan was so furious that he felt like killing someone.

He had spent so much effort to court Song Zhizhi. He did not expect the woman to change her mind as easily as she change her clothes. She had just told him like a hopeless romantic yesterday that she was going to the Ji family to call off her engagement so that they could be together forever, but today, she was suddenly doing something so inexplicable?!

Was she possessed? Why had she suddenly changed into a completely different person?

He did not believe that Song Zhizhi would really leave him. Perhaps she was just trying to tell him something or trying to make him take the initiative to express his love.

After giving Song Zhizhi a look, Yi Wenhan swung his hand and left.

Looking at his retreating back, Song Zhizhi could tell without even thinking that he must have left so decisively because he was sure that Song Zhizhi would go back on her words.

She sneered, turned around and went back to the hall.

Inside the hall, the atmosphere was still as lively as before.

When Nie Xiaofei saw her return, she quickly came over and asked, “Where’s Yi Wenhan?”

“He left.”

“He left? Why?” Nie Xiaofei asked.

“I made it clear to him that there’s no way we can be together.”

“Are you crazy?!” Nie Xiaofei lost control for a moment and blurted out.

Song Zhizhi’s gaze hardened. “Do you need me to teach you some manners?”

Nie Xiaofei suddenly realized her Freudian slip. She knew she could not offend Song Zhizhi, so she forced herself to keep her emotions in check. She squeezed out a smile and said, “I just think it’s such a pity. You two have such a good relationship going. Why would you break up just like that? Is there a misunderstanding between you? I just don’t want to see you sad, sis.”

“There’s no misunderstanding, and I’m fine. Besides, we’ve never started a romantic relationship, so it doesn’t count as a break up. You know that very well,” Song Zhizhi remarked, then added with a leisurely smile, “Moreover, I’m the first daughter of the Song family, so it’s only right that I marry into the Ji family.”

“What do you mean by that, sis?” Nie Xiaofei could hear the hidden meaning in Song Zhizhi’s words, so she asked somewhat unhappily.

“The first daughter marries the eldest son. That’s the rule of high society.” Song Zhizhi did not say it too bluntly, but it was clear that she was implying Nie Xiaofei’s status was not high enough. “I hope that my marrying Ji Baijian will not affect the relationship between us.”

Nie Xiaofei’s face was stiff. She did not say anything.

Song Zhizhi continued, “You’ve always been so well-behaved and considerate, so I think you should understand this time too. Today’s your birthday, so you should have fun. Baijian and I have some things to take care of, so we’ll be leaving first. We’re getting married soon, so we should spend some more time together to get closer to each other.”

Song Zhizhi completely ignored Nie Xiaofei’s feelings. After dropping those words, she walked straight to Ji Baijian and held his hand intimately. They walked out of the hall together.

Nie Xiaofei stared at Song Zhizhi’s back, gnashing her teeth in frustration. She was so pissed off that her entire body was trembling. She had never suffered such humiliation in her life!

She wanted to rip Song Zhizhi apart. How come she got to act so high and mighty?! How come she got to do whatever she wanted?!

Nie Xiaofei did not have any real feelings for Ji Baijian – honestly, who would like a sexually impotent man?! – but at that moment, she swore that she would marry Ji Baijian at all cost!
