Chapter 287

"We had planned to get married right after graduation and start a business together."

"But I didn't expect that all my fantasies would be shattered by a single gathering. That day, he met the woman he considered a goddess during middle school."

"I witnessed with my own eyes the entire process of that scumbag being intimate with that woman. You have no idea how disgusted I felt."

"Every moment I spent with him felt not only like a joke but also dirty."

"What am I to him after so many years together? Just a backup plan? I truly... cannot forgive him, nor do I want to."

Lu Nianzhi spoke with a heavy voice.

She thought it would be difficult to bring up the pain she had hidden deep in her heart for five years, that her heart would ache.

But she didn't expect it to come out so easily, even though her heart still ached.

"He fulfilled all my expectations of love when I was in the prime of my youth. I never thought betrayal would come so quickly and disgustingly."

"When he was caressing another woman, did he still have me in his heart?"

"Just the thought of that scene makes me sick, makes me feel dirty!"

As Lu Nianzhi shook her head, a look of intense disgust appeared on her face.

Rong Dai found herself getting caught up in the story.

Indeed, life truly is a melodramatic play.

Any melodramatic thing you think would never happen to you could very well occur in a single moment.

It catches you off guard, tearing your heart to pieces!

But that's just how life is!

While experiencing pain, you still have to grit your teeth and keep living.

Rong Dai got up and brought a small piece of chilled cake to Lu Nianzhi.

"Eating something sweet will improve your mood. Getting angry harms the liver. Since you've already let go, there's no need to dwell on it."

She didn't know much about Lu Nianzhi's relationship with Xu Chuan, so it wasn't appropriate for her to say much.

Besides, it's foolish to meddle in or judge others' relationships.

Because whether it's good or not, the people involved understand it better than the spectators.

But she was a bit curious about how Lu Nianzhi witnessed the whole process.

"The woman sent me a video. The next day when I went to the hotel, he was lying there with that woman, completely naked."

"I waited for him to explain, but all he said were those useless three words, 'I'm sorry.'"

Seeing Rong Dai's confusion, Lu Nianzhi took a bite of the cake and continued.

"I waited at home for three days, but he didn't send me a message or call me. It was as if he had suddenly disappeared from my world."

"During those three days, I didn't even know who I was anymore. Later, I went abroad."

"To forget him, I had to study like my life depended on it, so desperately that I almost met the God of Death."

"I thought that when I saw him, I would remain composed and not be so angry."

"But I overestimated myself."

Lu Nianzhi said with a hint of self-derision and disdain.

Rong Dai understood that feeling well. Even in her past life as a queen, what could she do?

Due to the Emperor's favoritism, she was suppressed by the Imperial Noble Consort.

As the heiress of a great nation, she had to endure such humiliation.

Yet the Emperor turned a deaf ear and never bothered, always silencing her with the words, "You are the Empress, you should consider the bigger picture."

But first and foremost, she was a woman, his lawful wife, and only then the Empress of the harem.

She understood the anger and bitterness in Lu Nianzhi's heart, yet she would not console her, only listening quietly as Lu Nianzhi spoke.

After Lu Nianzhi finished speaking, there was a moment of silence, and she ate the cake bite by bite.

"I apologize for subjecting you to such nauseating matters."

She put down her plate and looked at Rong Dai with a hint of regret.

"It's alright."

Rong Dai smiled lightly and shook her head. She thought Lu Nianzhi was perfect, after all, her business capabilities were so impressive!

But she never expected that all of this was nothing more than a shell Lu Nianzhi used to armor herself.
