Lu Chi: [Fuck! What's going on? What's wrong with this crazy woman?]
Lu Sangning, whom he had called a crazy woman, hiccupped drunkenly and said, "Lu Chi, you, you, you..."
Before Lu Sangning could finish, she fell to the floor with a thud.
...She had fallen asleep.
"Miss!"
"Sangning!"
"Big Sis!"
The Lu family hurried over in a fluster to help Lu Sangning up.
Lu Chi quickly took advantage of the chaos to go to bed.
The next morning, Lu Chi got up to go to school and ran into Lu Sangning in the living room.
Lu Sangning had sobered up, but she acted as though yesterday had never happened.
She was still as icy as ever when she saw Lu Chi.
Lu Chi was used to it. If you don't welcome me, I can't be bothered with you either.
After eating, he grabbed a bottle of milk and headed out.
Lu Sangning really did not remember pushing Lu Chi down and scolding him yesterday.
Everything after she had gotten drunk was a complete blank.
But she had not forgotten the other things.
The most urgent matter now was dealing with that rotten bastard, Zhang Yong.
And that slut, Zou Nana!
Lu Sangning arrived at the office and opened her phone to find the trending searches filling the screen, all about Zhang Yong secretly meeting another woman at a hotel.

Lu Sangning stared coldly at the trending searches on her phone. After getting drunk last night, she had cried all night, and her eyes were still swollen this morning.
But she had always been decisive and ruthless. Though it was hard to let go of years of love, the betrayal made her even angrier.
The deeper the love, the fiercer the hatred.
Lu Sangning sat in her office for a while, then made a call, her face expressionless.
"Hello. Check what business partnerships our company has with the Zhang Clan. Terminate all of them."
"Also, notify every company and enterprise in Hua Country that anyone who does business with the Zhang Clan is making an enemy of the Lu Group."
Less than an hour after that call...
Ring, ring, ring~
That scumbag Zhang Yong called.
He had called many times over the past two days. Lu Sangning had answered none of them and had even blocked his number outright.
This time, he called from a new number.
The moment he spoke, his voice was urgent and his tone plaintive.
"Sangning, baby, you're finally willing to answer! I need to explain. This really wasn't my fault. It was all Zou Nana. That bitch seduced me first..."
Lu Sangning flew into a rage.
Though she did not have much experience in love, Zhang Yong was her first love, the first relationship of her life.
But what she hated most were men who toyed with other people's feelings, then blamed the woman in the end.
Not only were they scum, they refused to take responsibility.
"Go die! You still have the nerve to call me? Get lost!"
After hanging up, Lu Sangning set her phone to reject all calls from unknown numbers.
Zhang Yong could no longer get through.
No matter how many numbers he tried, none got through.
At noon, Lu Sangning came out of the office building, ready to go home for her midday rest.
She saw Zhang Yong standing at the entrance, holding ninety-nine roses.
The moment he saw Lu Sangning, Zhang Yong ran over, crying.
With tears and snot streaming down his face, he said, "Sangning, baby, I'm sorry. It really wasn't my fault. It was all Zou Nana, all that bitch's fault. She seduced me. That's why I got together with her."
"Sangning, I know I was wrong. I won't let her bewitch me again. I've already cut ties with her. I've thought it through these past few days. You're the person I love most in this life, not anyone else."
Lu Sangning's face was cold.
She looked at the man before her, whom she had loved for more than three years.
If not for Lu Chi, she still would not have seen whether he was a man or a monster.
"Baby, please forgive me, okay?"
"I really won't be so foolish again. We're getting married next month. I really love you. I can't let go of the years we've shared."
"Baby, please, give me another chance, okay?"
"Please, baby?"
Zhang Yong's repeated pleas not only failed to move Lu Sangning, they made her despise him even more.
"Zhang Yong, to think I loved you for three years, trusted you so much, and wanted to entrust my whole life to you. I never imagined you were this kind of person!"
Zhang Yong shook his head desperately and tried to push the roses into Lu Sangning's arms.
Lu Sangning slapped the roses away. They fell to the ground, and she kicked them far away.
"Zhang Yong, you scumbag, drop that hypocritical facade. Not only will I never forgive you, I'll also terminate every business partnership between your Zhang Clan and my family. I'll make you unable to live or die!"
Lu Sangning's words stunned Zhang Yong with fright.
Especially since he had already received a call from his family saying the Lu Group had canceled all business partnerships with the Zhang Clan, Zhang Yong grew even more anxious.
He hurriedly threw his arms around Lu Sangning and said in a trembling voice, "Baby, please forgive me. I don't want to lose you. None of that business matters. What matters most is my love for you."
"Baby, I love you. I was wrong this time. I swear this will never happen again. If it does, may heaven strike me with lightning and deny me a peaceful death!"
As he apologized, Zhang Yong slapped himself hard, striking his left cheek, then his right.
Both cheeks swelled up.
They were covered in red, five-fingered marks.
He was clearly striking with real force.
Looking at the wretched man before her, Lu Sangning felt no stir in her heart, only deep disgust.
A man who blamed a woman whenever he did something wrong was truly a spineless good-for-nothing.
When you caught a man like this doing wrong, he would hurt himself to beg for your forgiveness.
If you did not catch him, he would hide it to the very end.
What a disgusting, lowly piece of scum!
She reached back and beckoned, and two bodyguards immediately stepped forward.
"Take him away," Lu Sangning said coldly.
The bodyguards immediately took Zhang Yong by either arm and bundled him into Lu Sangning's Bugatti.
In the car, Zhang Yong thought Lu Sangning had softened and was willing to forgive him. He was so happy that his body kept twitching.
"Baby, I knew you wouldn't abandon me, that you'd forgive me. I only made the mistake every man in the world makes. My baby is the kindest and most understanding. You'll definitely forgive me."
"Hah!"
Lu Sangning gave a cold laugh.
The Bugatti raced down the road.
The car reached a secluded road on the outskirts, ten meters from an abandoned pond.
"Stop the car," Lu Sangning said coldly.
The car stopped.
The two bodyguards hauled Zhang Yong out of the car, then released him.
Lu Sangning got out unhurriedly and folded her arms.
Thinking things had taken a turn for the better, Zhang Yong hurried forward and grabbed Lu Sangning's arm.
"Baby, I knew you'd forgive me," he said joyfully. "The scenery here is pretty nice. Come on, let's sit by the pond and enjoy the view while I explain everything slowly."
"Sure!" Lu Sangning said coldly.
Still holding Lu Sangning's arm, Zhang Yong walked toward the pond and said happily, "Thank you, baby, for understanding and supporting me."
Lu Sangning did not resist, letting him hold her arm as they reached the pond.
"Go on. Tell me about you and Zou Nana."
Zhang Yong hurried to explain. "Baby, you know my feelings for you are sincere. I got drunk once and couldn't resist her seduction, so... But this will never happen again. Believe me!"
Lu Sangning nodded and sneered. "Don't you think an explanation like that lacks sincerity?"
