Ji Weixi could actually imagine the wondrous sight of that little bird of a woman sticking to Li Shaoling.

The ache in her heart became so much more painful that it hurts to breathe. Her eyes were strained at the sight of Li Shaoling’s dazzling smile, whereas her entire body felt so cold it was no different from being dumped into an icy cavern.

Hanging up, Li Shaoling put an arm over her shoulder and asked softly. “Want to go to the airport with me?”

Before, she never felt uncomfortable when he did that aside from being embarrassed.

Now, however, she felt really disgusted.

Following him to receive her ex? Dream on!

It was time to end this vague relationship anyway!

With his former girlfriend’s return, she was now expendable and of no value.

Hence, Ji Weixi slowly pushed him away. Still, she had a hard time smiling when she met his tender gaze. “You should go. I’m still a little ill so I’ll go home and rest.”

Flustered, Li Shaoling scanned her from head to toe. “You’re ill?” He asked worriedly.

“It’s just my waist. It still hurts a little.” Ji Weixi forced another smile and shoved him. “Go get your ex. I’ll be going home.”

“I’ll have someone come with you.”

“No need.” Ji Weixi refused. “I’ll drive home.”

Even as she spoke, she panickily turned and left as if afraid that he had more to say.

Her tears welled in her eyes but it wouldn’t fall regardless.

She asked herself why she was upset, but for some mysterious reason, she wasn’t sure.

But even as she turned, Li Shaoling watched her and smiled helplessly. “Silly little thing.”

***

After leaving the office, Ji Weixi took her car from the carpark and gave her a little one a phone call.

“Mommy...” The little one sounded groggy and languid.

The gloom inside her faded entirely at the sound of his tender voice, and she smiled. “You’re still not up yet, Baby? What time is it already?”

“Hmmm.... Played too much last night... still a little sleepy...”

She sighed feebly. “Mommy’s back.”

“You’re back!” The little one quickly became energetic. “Where are you, Mommy?! I’ve missed you so much!”

“I’m heading to Jiang Cong’s place now. Wait for me.”

“Yes, Mommy!”

Naturally, her son was more reliable.

That said... the boy was his and Li Shaoling’s.

Ji Weixi’s smiled faded when she thought of Li Shaoling.

That was when a call reached her.

It was Mo Nanfeng.

Ji Weixi frowned, but despite wanting to decline the call, she accepted it in the end for some reason.

“What is it?” She asked coldly.

“Weixi...” Mo Nanfeng’s voice sounded weird, with audible static from blowing winds. “I’m at my father’s grave... could you come? The truth is that there’s something he wanted to tell you before he died. He told me to relay to it to you, but I didn’t out of my selfish desire... I hope that I can tell you now face to face.”

Ji Weixi refused by instinct. “Tell me now!”

She was more and more repulsed by Mo Nanfeng.

“No... I have to tell you face to face!” Mo Nanfeng’s voice was shaking and rather pained. “I’ll wait for you, and I will tell you in front of him. Or... Or I won’t rest in peace...”

Then, pausing as if afraid that Ji Weixi would refuse, he begged, “Weixi, I won’t hurt you! This time... this is the last time we’ll meet, alright?”

Ji Weixi hesitated for a moment at that, and turned the steering wheel, shifting the car to the other direction.

“Wait for me there.”

***

The graveyard.

Ji Weixi arrived with a bouquet of lilies in hand.

As she climbed the steps, Mo Nanfeng, who was nearby turned towards her.

He was already much skinnier although it was just a while since they’ve met. His pale white face was now mostly different from the picture of Mo Bin’s face on his grave, and a little weirder.

The winds here were strong and making a mess of Ji Weixi’s hair.

She stood still, stared at the black-and-white photo on the grave and bowed three times before putting her flowers on it.

Then, she pulled her hair behind her ear and coolly said, “Talk.”

Mo Nanfeng turned.

The woman’s eyes were dark and impassive, and as indifferent as her facial features. Her tall and curvaceous form gave her a distinct noble air.

Her hair that was as long as seaweed remained dark and smooth as ever.

Mo Nanfeng’s gaze turned tired and distant then. “I remember that we were always together when we’re younger, going to school and leaving school together—I’ve always tried to amuse you since you didn’t like talking back then, although you’ll just cry... heh. I really miss how things were between us back in those days.”

“Still...” He reached out and wormed his hand between her hair and sighed in nostalgia. “But we can no longer go back.”

Ji Weixi pushed him away in disgust and took one step back. “I’m leaving if that’s what you had to say!”

She turned, but that was when Mo Nanfeng’s voice changed. “Actually, I don’t have anything to say. Nor did my father told me anything.”

“Still, I just wanted to tell you that it was I who drugged you four years ago.”

Ji Weixi froze.

Mo Nanfeng approached her with a sly smile, with the buffeting winds and the empty graveyard making his voice even more sinister. “I did it after the graduation ceremony... but damn it, Ji Jianing that little slut was so jealous she stopped me from touching you, and so you ended up with some random stranger.”

Ji Weixi’s eyes widened in disbelief.

Mo Nanfeng reached beside her ears and spoke as coldly as a viper, “Oh, Weixi, I love you so much I couldn’t wait to take you as mine! But you had no position in the Ji family, and no stocks of the company... that’s why I could only choose Ji Jianing.”

He lustfully sniffed at the scent of hair and sneered. “The reason I chose her was because Mo Group was already almost bankrupt four years ago, and only the Ji family could have saved us. Even so, she abandoned me for Li Shaoling in the blink of an eye, and made me a cuckold! And when I thought I wouldn’t see you for the rest of my life, you become even more of a woman when you came back after the four years. Don’t you know how badly I wanted to make you mine the moment I saw you again?!”

Mo Nanfeng was more agitated the more he spoke. He was holding Ji Weixi tightly in his eyes too, and his eyes were bursting with jealously at the mere mention of Li Shaoling.

“Let me go!”

Ji Weixi struggled, feeling waves of chill insider herself.

She wanted to vomit! Never did she expect that Mo Nanfeng was the one who had drugged her!

Her childhood friend actually only had such filthy, immoral thoughts about her!

Disgusting!

Nonetheless, Mo Nanfeng kept her in a vice grip between both arms. “Oh, Weixi. Did you know how much it hurt when I begged you, only to have you refuse me? I’m so sad... why would you do that to me? How could you just forget our years of relationship?”
