Shu Pan knew about Zhou Jie. During their university days, Zhou Jie was a beauty, the campus belle, majoring in foreign languages. She was gentle and kind, often seen in long dresses that exuded an ethereal aura, as if she were not part of the mundane world. Due to her beauty and prestigious background, she was never short of admirers.

However, there were no reports about her being in a relationship with anyone. Shu Pan had never met her.

It was only later that rumors spread about Zhou Jie being close to a male student from the architecture department, someone handsome and charming. It was then that Shu Pan learned that the person Zhou Jie was with was Su Yuan. By the time she checked, they were already together, and Su Yuan hadn’t explained anything, only offered apologies.

Never had she imagined that after four years of being in love, they would break up like this, without any warning. Shu Pan still remembered how utterly devastated she had felt.

After the breakup, they never met again. Before graduation, she heard that both Su Yuan and Zhou Jie had gone abroad for further studies. Later on, she gradually understood Su Yuan. He had dreams, aspirations for success, and although he claimed not to love Zhou Jie, she could offer him everything he desired.

Being with her would have been his first step towards success. Shu Pan admitted to herself that she lacked that capability. Therefore, besides feeling heartbroken, she could do nothing else. Reality was just that cruel. “Ms. Shu, are you there? I’m waiting for you at the café across from your

company.” Not hearing a response, Zhou Jie made a decision on her own.

Only then did Shu Pan snap out of her reverie. She tightened her grip on the phone and said, “Alright.”

Judging from Zhou Jie’s demeanor, Shu Pan guessed that if she didn’t see her, she might come to the company.

“Then let’s meet at 6 pm tonight, after I finish work.” Shu Pan rubbed her forehead and reluctantly agreed. She actually wanted to know what Zhou Jie wanted.

Well, getting entangled with an ex-boyfriend did bring about a lot of trouble.

When Shu Pan arrived at the café after work, Zhou Jie was already there. Indeed, a beauty. She had been favored by fate, leaving no traces of time on her. She looked exactly the same as before. Her simple makeup accentuated her delicate features, and her elegant white dress showcased her graceful figure. Her ethereal charm was so captivating that it was hard to look away.

“Ms. Shu, please have a seat.” Zhou Jie smiled gently. Her smile was light, lacking any sincerity.

“Ms. Zhou, I don’t understand why you’re in such a hurry to meet me. What’s the matter?” Shu Pan didn’t beat around the bush. She went straight to the point.

“In fact, you are more senior than me. After all, we attended the same school. I owe you an apology, right? Back then, Su Yuan and I got together, causing your relationship to end. I’m truly sorry for that.” Although she was apologizing with her words, her sincerity was hardly felt.

“It’s really unnecessary. We all have our own lives now, Ms. Zhou, you don’t have to care so much about it.” Shu Pan rejected her apology outright. She didn’t want anything to do with them.

“Then please, Ms. Shu, do as you said. After all, Su Yuan is now my husband. I hope you won’t have any other ideas. You probably don’t know this, but Su Yuan chose to cooperate with your company for you. There are so many companies in the industry, so why did he choose your company? This way, he has a reason to get close to you. Are you feeling proud of that? Do you think I’m facing retribution now?” Zhou Jie’s tone was assertive.

“Ms. Zhou, you’re overthinking things. I have no interest in other people’s husbands.” Shu Pan replied straightforwardly.

“Heh heh.” Zhou Jie chuckled lightly. “It’s nothing, really. I wanted to tell you that I won’t let go of Su Yuan. It’s best if you don’t have any other thoughts. I’ve heard you’re married too. You should cherish your marriage, or don’t blame me for not being polite.” Zhou Jie’s threat sounded cold.

Shu Pan didn’t want to continue the conversation. Her stance had always been clear. “Your marriage doesn’t require any comments from me.”

“Heh, I hope you remember what I said today.” Compared to her previous tone, her current one was much colder.

Afterward, Zhou Jie picked up her bag and left gracefully.

Shu Pan watched her leave, furrowing her brow. She found this situation truly bewildering. She decided to keep her distance from Su Yuan in the future and prioritize paying back the money she owed him..
