The person who questioned Lu Zhiyuan was Qiu Qiu. But Lu Zhiyuan just stared at me blankly.

I pursed my lips and didn't ask in the end.

After a long while, Lu Zhiyuan said in a deep voice, "Let me introduce you, this is my girlfriend, Miao Zhi."

I felt my heartbeat suddenly stop.

What did he say just now? He said the woman in front of him was his girlfriend?

My hands at my sides subconsciously clutched my trouser legs.

I originally thought I wouldn't care if there was someone new around him. But when the moment finally arrived, I felt a bit overwhelmed and inexplicably uncomfortable.

I took a step back, and this one action alone caught Qiu Qiu's attention.

"Shanshan, what's wrong with you?"

I couldn't speak. My stomach was churning and my chest felt like it was shot by a bullet, and the pain was so severe that I couldn't breathe.

I turned around and rushed into the bathroom, holding onto the sink and retching for a while, feeling stars in front of my eyes.

Lu Zhiyuan and I have been divorced for a long time. Could it be the problem of the aftermath again?

I leaned my hands on the sink, looked at my haggard self in the mirror, and smiled bitterly.

Qiu Qiu was frightened by my reaction. When he entered the bathroom, he saw that I had recovered a little and knocked on the door for me.

Qiu Qiu said angrily, "This Lu Zhiyuan, I think he clearly did it on purpose? Why did he bring his girlfriend to Huake Resort when there are so many places to go?"

I pulled Qiu Qiu's hand to stop her from saying anything more.

Qiu Qiu and I supported each other as we walked out. There was only an empty space in front of us. Lu Zhiyuan had already left with his girlfriend.

I felt a little relieved for some reason.

I really don't want to see Lu Zhiyuan again.

Seeing him brings back those painful nightmares.

"Xiao Shan! Qiu Qiu!"

We heard shouts from not far away. It was Mingyuan coming to look for us.

He was also accompanied by Yan Meng, who had just arrived.

He will never miss Mingsi's birthday.

"Mingyuan..." Qiu Qiu smiled innocently at Mingyuan, and her body swayed. Mingyuan was so scared that he immediately stepped forward to support her.

As if he could tell that something was wrong with my face, Yan Meng helped me up and asked with concern, "What's wrong? Why do you look so bad?"

Qiu Qiu and Mingyuan are both here. I didn't want to tell them that I seemed to be sick again, so I just pursed my lips and said nothing.

"It's Lu Zhiyuan!" Qiu Qiu was a quick-witted person, and now that he was drunk he couldn't hide anything.

"Lu Zhiyuan is actually at the resort, and he has a girlfriend with him!"

Qiu Qiu curled her lips and said with disdain, "That woman doesn't look like a decent person at first glance. She's average looking and has an average figure, far inferior to our Shanshan. I really don't know when Lu Zhiyuan's taste became so bad!"

After listening to this, Mingyuan frowned slightly and looked at me with a questioning look that showed concern.

I looked up and smiled at him, my face showing no concern.

"Don't listen to Qiu Qiu's nonsense. He's single now, and he's free to fall in love. It's only natural for him to find a girlfriend."

My tone was calm, but my hands at my sides were still clenched into fists.

My heart was filled with an uncontrollable resentment, which made me feel inexplicably unhappy and I wanted to find an opportunity to vent.

At this moment, my shoulder suddenly felt heavy. I turned around in surprise and Yan Meng put his arm around my shoulder. The warmth from his palm dispelled the coldness in my body and flowed into my heart.

My heart gradually settled down.

The painful and tormenting grief gradually disappeared, and my mood calmed down.
