Chapter 2

The bride and groom were laughing so much it seemed almost worthless, while Zhou Yanming and I sat there, expressionless, watching them.

After all the formalities were done, I finally took my seat.

I don’t know if the person who arranged the seating was trying to stir things up, but I was seated at the main table, and Zhou Yanming was also at the main table, our seats right next to each other.

The atmosphere around us was lively, but the two of us were as quiet as mutes.

I saw the best man next to me swipe his phone a couple of times, then turn his head, meeting my gaze directly and unerringly.

Normally, strangers look away after more than two seconds of eye contact, but this man didn’t.

?

I was sure he was provoking me, so I didn’t back down, meeting his gaze head-on.

After a while, amidst the bustle, I heard the man beside me speak: “Miss Wen, I’ve heard a lot about you.”

So he’d heard of me too.

I gave a smile that didn’t reach my eyes and said, “Hello, Mr. Zhou.”

After saying that, I still felt it didn’t express my past anger enough, so I added sarcastically:

“They were only able to get married today thanks to your indispensable efforts, Mr. Zhou.”

The man beside me frowned slightly at my words. “Thank you, you played a part too.”

I snorted coldly, “We’re not quite the same. If Li Qingyi and Xu Shaoting have faced all sorts of obstacles along the way, then I must be one of those obstacles.”

God knows when I started trying to break them up. Back when they were still flirting, I already felt Xu Shaoting wasn’t right for Li Qingyi.

Sure enough, they’ve been together for five years, breaking up and getting back together over and over. I don’t know if they’re tired, but they’ve worn me out so much I keep my distance from men now.

Love? Not even a dog would bother.

A few seconds later, Zhou Yanming replied, “Then I must be one of their obstacles too.”

“Hm?”

I turned to look at him again. “Weren’t you always the one trying to patch things up?”

Zhou Yanming: “Who said I was?”

Something felt off. I narrowed my eyes:

“Weren’t you always playing the strategist? Then why is it that every time they’re about to break up, Xu Shaoting comes to you to make peace?”
