Han Xiayang looked at her losing control and was very worried. Just as he wanted to reach out and pull her into his arms to comfort her a bit, she reflexively dodged him, and his hands hung lonely in the air, his eyes full of disappointment, unable to calm down for a long time.

"Meng Qi, calm down."

However, the next moment, she turned on him: "Han Xiayang, from today on, stay away from me too, I don’t want to see you all."

The blood quickly drained from Han Xiayang’s handsome face. He stared in shock at the woman in front of him, his eyes filled with disbelief. Just last night, they were doing the most intimate thing between a man and a woman in this world, yet overnight, she was telling him to stay away from her.

What he couldn’t understand more was how she could so easily utter such irresponsible words.

So then, what does their relationship count for? In her eyes, does it really mean nothing?

For the first time in his life, Han Xiayang’s heart was utterly broken by a woman, feeling a throbbing pain there, but unable to soothe it.

He slightly opened his mouth, wanting to say something, but ultimately silently turned and left the room. If he stayed there facing those accusatory eyes, he would go mad.

After he left, Ouyang Lei immediately walked to the longest-faced woman’s side, gently pulling her into his arms, full of disapproval in his words: "Clearly you can’t let go, clearly you love him very much, why do this, it hurts him, and you feel the pain in your own heart too, why go through this?"

Shen Mengqi, upon feeling the familiar embrace, as if finding a refuge and solace for her soul, leaned her entire weight against him, burying her head in his chest, tears uncontrollably streaming down her face, soaking into the man’s clothes and flowing into the depths of her heart.

Ouyang Lei then continued to nod at everyone present, finally leaving the room with the person in his arms.

The atmosphere had become suffocating because of what had just transpired.

Eventually, Lin Mubai was the first to react. He turned his head to his good friend Zuo Qingfeng and said, "You’re a lawyer. I have an idea. I want to tell you, can you brainstorm with me to see if it’s feasible?"

The latter nodded immediately: "Go ahead and tell me."

Lin Mubai then shared his thoughts, and everyone felt an impulse to give him a thumbs-up immediately.

"Brilliant, Brother Mubai, no wonder you’re called a shrewd businessman, to come up with such an idea. How is your brain constructed? Because I eat no less than you, yet there’s such a big difference?"

Xi Yu’s words instantly eased the slightly tense atmosphere a bit.

Zuo Qingfeng, as her husband, could speak candidly, while others dared not. He lightly tapped his wife’s head with some force, full of helplessness in his words: "You fool, don’t you know how to speak? If you don’t know how to speak, just keep your mouth shut. Don’t loiter around doing nothing and become a joke, making me lose face."

Xi Yu immediately rolled her eyes at him: "How did I make you lose face!"
