âWhat is it?â Jing Hao embraced his beloved woman from behind and kissed her loose hair tenderly. Her refreshing fragrance caused Jing Haoâs exhausted heart to feel peaceful for a moment.
For more than half a year, their hearts have never been so close to each other as they are today.
Cheng Xin was so enchanting that he was still willing to plunge into the net she created, even though he knew that they werenât suitable.
However, the body in his arms was very stiff. A bad premonition suddenly rushed up. Jing Hao, whose head was buried in Cheng Xinâs neck, raised his head and looked at the phone. The photo on the screen caused him to suck in a cold breath.
The white screen displayed a young man and woman, standing side by side. They were a handsome and beautiful pair and their behavior was obviously intimate.
In the photo, the two of them were shopping at a jewelry store. By the counter, the woman tightly held the manâs arm with a smile. Her eyes were filled with love that couldnât be hidden.
Jing Hao grabbed the cell phone and quickly deleted it, but as he did, another photo showed up.
In this picture, the pair changed positions. The man, whose face had always been cold and expressionless, was smiling slightly as he placed the necklace around the womanâs neck.
The most important detail were the rings on the middle fingers of the pair. Under the jewelry storeâs glittering light, there was a twinkle reflected on their jewelry. Cheng Xinâs eyes were glued to the screen.
Cheng Xin remained motionless as Jing Hao snatched her phone away. As he held up the cellphone in his hand, she looked up with a dull expression.
âWho is she?â she asked.
Her voice drifted off into the wind.
âXin Xin, this is a misunderstanding, let me explainâ¦â Jing Hao quickly calmed down after his panic. He turned around while trying to organize what he was about to say.
But when he turned to face her, the words were stuck in his throat.

Big tear drops fell from Cheng Xinâs eyes, like beads from a broken necklace. Her eyes that once shone were now filled with grief. She dared not look straight at him at this moment.
âDidnât you say you will wait for me to grow up and stand by your side?â Cheng Xin looked at the man in front of her. How can she not recognize who the man in the photo was? She wanted to deceive herself that the pictures were fake.
However, Jing Hao didnât even give her this opportunity.
Just a moment ago, they agreed to bravely face the storm together, but at the very next second, it was as if a loud slap fell on her face.
The picture was only superficial, but the couple on the photo had reached such a point. So then, whatâs behind the scenes? Did they make further progress long ago?
Cheng Xin almost collapsed.
But when unspeakable sadness overwhelmed her, she forgot to quarrel and question the man. Instead, her voice was calm, as if she was merely talking about todayâs weather.
That is, if we ignore the tears on her face.
âIâm sorry, itâs my fault this time,â Jing Hao apologized quickly. âBut you have to calm down and listen to me. Thereâs a reason for me to do this.â At this moment, the most important thing is to coax Cheng Xin well and face her tears directly, especially since those were caused by him. He felt distressed for her.

âIâm calm.â Cheng Xin pushed him aside and wiped her tears dry. âIf you want to explain, then thatâs fine.â
She pointed to her cellphone and asked, âTell me, why do you have engagement rings?â
âIâ â Jing Hao paused. Can he say that he was forced to sell himself because of the man Cheng Xin once dreamed of? Itâs better to kill himself than to admit such defeat in front of his lover.
