You Two Can Stay Together Forever

Early the next morning, Wei Zisu appeared outside the Civil Affairs Bureau. Afraid Sun Liang would change his mind, he called three times in ten minutes to hurry him along.

Updating their engagement information was not as complicated as getting divorced. Both parties simply had to be present, confirm there were no property disputes, and sign. He and Sun Liang had never exchanged money, only gifts, so neither would lose out. Wei Zisu had looked it up online; a case like theirs could be settled in minutes.

In his bag was the heirloom jade bracelet Sun Liang's grandmother had given him. He planned to return it to Grandma in person once they finished updating their information.

Since he intended to break off his engagement to Sun Liang, he could no longer keep the heirloom jade bracelet.

Wei Zisu looked up at the sky and thought back over his engagement to Sun Liang. It had probably been a mistake from the start.

In his first year after debuting, he had become known to quite a few people because the commercial he appeared in was so beautifully shot.

Among them was Sun Liang, the son of a wealthy family.

When Wei Zisu, a rookie actor, won a major director's favor and landed the lead in a film, Sun Liang began pursuing him.

He frequently visited the set, ate with him, and brought him gifts. Beyond that, he sent plenty of orders to the small factory Wei Zisu's parents owned, bringing their shabby little business back from the brink of bankruptcy.

Wei Zisu's mother kept urging him to accept Sun Liang's advances. She said that someone with such good prospects taking a liking to him was a blessing, and he had better not keep him waiting so long that he drove him away.

Wei Zisu knew his mother was afraid he would put off marriage until he was twenty-seven. If he ended up matched with an Alpha with poor prospects, his whole life would be ruined.

He did not like Sun Liang, but after weighing the pros and cons, he agreed anyway.

There were three reasons.

First, Sun Liang really did treat him well. He thought that perhaps affection would grow over time, and he might come to like Sun Liang too.

Second, his mother was very pleased with Sun Liang. Ever since he was little, he had rarely gone against her wishes.

Third, Sun Liang promised that as long as they were together, he would use every connection he had to help find Wei Zisu's younger brother, who had been abducted years ago and had not been heard from since.

He had been engaged to Sun Liang for three years. Apart from genuinely putting some effort into the search at first, Sun Liang had grown increasingly perfunctory. Whenever Wei Zisu asked about his progress, he would brush him off with, "I'm looking, I'm looking."

His tone grew more and more impatient.

Wei Zisu was determined to end their engagement because two of the three reasons he had used to persuade himself to get engaged had already fallen apart.

Sun Liang was no longer sincerely helping him look for his brother.

And he had cheated with other Omega celebrities, while Wei Zisu, despite trying for four years, had never managed to fall in love with him.

Wei Zisu waited outside the Civil Affairs Bureau for over half an hour before Sun Liang finally dragged himself there.

"Let's go in," Wei Zisu said.

Sun Liang stood at the entrance, refusing to move for a long time.

"What's wrong?" Wei Zisu asked.

He thought, Has this bastard changed his mind?

Sure enough, Sun Liang folded his arms with a flippant air and said, "Wei Zisu, let's talk this over."

Wei Zisu's heart sank, and irritation immediately rose in him. "What else is there to talk about?"

As though he had reached some decision, Sun Liang said, "I told my mother about this last night. My mother... gave me a scolding."

After saying that, he stole a glance at Wei Zisu's reaction, but Wei Zisu remained expressionless and waited for him to continue.

"Mother told me to apologize to you and make a clean break with Yuan Zizhen. Also, to put your mind at ease, I can give you a guarantee first."

Wei Zisu: ???

"Give me a guarantee? What does that mean??"

Sun Liang puffed out his chest. "It means letting you have a child of the Sun family. Whatever happens in the future, that child will have inheritance rights in my family. Surely that'll put your mind at ease?"

His mother had also said that Grandma was especially fond of Wei Zisu, and marrying him would please her. When the time came for Sun Liang to fight his older paternal half brother over the inheritance, Grandma might favor them a little for Wei Zisu's sake.

Of course, Wei Zisu could not be allowed to know any of that.

Honestly, if they had not been outside the Civil Affairs Bureau, and if murder had not been illegal, Wei Zisu would already have stepped forward and lifted off the top of his skull to see whether it really was full of moldy paste.

He took a deep breath and restrained the urge to hit him, saying through gritted teeth, "First, I couldn't care less about your family's fortune. Second, I told you, I'm a clean freak. Do you think I'd let you touch me with that rotten cucumber of yours?!"

In all his life, Second Young Master Sun had never had anyone humiliate him like this!

All he had to do was crook a finger, and plenty of Omegas would obediently throw themselves at him. No matter how wild he got outside, he always used protection, refusing to let anyone get his seed and cause unnecessary trouble. Not only that, he had never even given anyone a temporary marking!

Yet Wei Zisu refused to appreciate it. He had condescended to offer himself, and Wei Zisu actually turned him down! He had acted so obedient and sensible before, but now he seemed to oppose him at every turn, even speaking so crudely.

How could someone as proud as Sun Liang tolerate such treatment!

At that moment, he threw all his mother's instructions to the wind. Pointing at the entrance to the Civil Affairs Bureau, he snapped, "Come on! Whoever backs out is a bastard!"

Wei Zisu immediately followed, afraid Sun Liang would regret it if he was even a second too late.

From filling out the forms to signing them, it took the two of them just three minutes to dissolve their engagement.

Of course, that also meant Wei Zisu's information as a single Omega officially entered the review stage. After his birthday next month, he would have to either marry an Alpha matched to him under the rules or pay an enormous fine.

Once they came out of the Civil Affairs Bureau, Sun Liang finally calmed down, thinking that his mother would definitely give him a vicious scolding when he got home today.

But there was no undoing it now, and he did not show the slightest regret. He clung to the hopeful thought that Zizhen was much more popular than Wei Zisu now, and he was clever and cute too. Perhaps he could win Grandma over as well.

Watching Wei Zisu walk away without so much as looking back, he was overcome with anger and called out to stop him. "Wei Zisu!"

Wei Zisu stopped and turned around.

Sun Liang walked over and said contemptuously, "Your parents don't know you've broken off our engagement, do they?"

"What are you trying to say?" Wei Zisu asked.

"Heh. Before, because you were my fiancée, I helped your parents out in every way and sent plenty of orders their way. But now..."

"There's no need to send any more," Wei Zisu said. "How much they earn will depend on their own abilities."

The less he seemed to care, the angrier Sun Liang became.

"Wei Zisu, you really are boring. All you ever do is act. Your face is the only thing about you that meets my standards. Apart from that, you're worthless. Zizhen is an actor too, but he can sing and play the violin. He understands music, knows how to keep things interesting, and he's gentle, kind, cultured, and reasonable. He's an Omega you'd be hard-pressed to find anywhere. He's better than you by who knows how many times!"

Wei Zisu shrugged. "Oh. Then you two can stay together forever. Thanks."

With that, he turned to leave, not wanting to say another word to this person. It was simply a waste of his life.

Sun Liang still refused to let it go and shouted after him, "Wei Zisu, if you end up with some potbellied coal tycoon, remember to be gentler. Don't make him lose interest in you. And stop looking for that brother of yours. Even if you find him, having to face a brother as lifeless as you would be painful. Oh, right, there's been no word of him for so many years. Who knows if he's even alive!"

Wei Zisu had stopped walking when Sun Liang mentioned his brother. Once Sun Liang finished, Wei Zisu turned and walked toward him.

When he was half a meter away, he suddenly swung his fist and slammed it hard into Sun Liang's face!
