"Can you briefly tell me about your situation?" Chen Xi asked.

Qianqian was stunned for a moment, then a happy smile spread across her face. "We met a year ago. At that time, my ex-boyfriend had just cheated on me and I was in a bad mood. I hit him on the way home while driving. While he was in the hospital, we got to know each other well and then got together."

"but......"

Qianqian paused, a little confused. "But I've been with him for a year, and I know very little about him. I only know that he works in software. I don't know which company he works for or what position he holds. I don't even know who his friends are."

Chen Xi felt strange and asked, "Then you haven't asked before? If you are so curious."

Qianqian said, "When we first got together, I was too embarrassed to ask. Later, when I asked again, he was always vague and didn't seem to want to say anything. He just said he was a director and that his position was confidential. He told me not to ask again and that he would tell me when the time came."

"But he never took me to meet his friends. One time I saw him walking with someone and I ran into him. I went up to him and said hello, but he looked extremely unhappy. When he came back, he got mad at me."

"I was so sad at that time. I felt that he didn't love me and wanted to break up with him, but he told me that it was because he was very possessive and didn't want me to appear in front of his friends. Because his friends were all frivolous people, many of them liked to steal other people's girls, and he was afraid that I would be stolen away by others."

"I thought he must be so worried because he loved me so much, so I forgave him at that time. Then, more than half a year later, he told me that his father, who runs his company, needed surgery and needed funds, but all his money was tied up in software development and he couldn't come up with 500,000 yuan for the time being."

"I saw him anxious day and night. He would come back drunk in the early hours of the morning. I was very worried, so I took out my savings to help him with his emergency needs."

Chen Xi asked: "Have you paid back the money?"

"Not yet, but he said that once the company's economy recovers in the second half of the year and the software is developed, he'll pay me back double. I don't really value money, so I told him to use the remaining money as a down payment for our house. I'll also be considered as contributing capital, and then we can put both of our names on the house so that no one takes advantage of the other.

Just two months ago, he told me that he bought a house, but it was in his hometown. I was a little unhappy at the time. We both work here, so why should we buy a house in his hometown? Don’t you think it’s a bit of a waste of resources?

He said to me at the time: "No, we will go back eventually anyway. Besides, you don't want to live with my parents when you go back, right? There's a house over there, so we can have a private space when we go back during the holidays."

I thought about it and it seemed like he was really thinking about me, so I didn't say anything. I said to him, "Then we'd better buy another house here as our wedding house. That way it will be more convenient for work and life."

He agreed very readily. A month ago, he told me that he had found a house that was very good and would cost more than 20 million yuan, but he only needed 10 million yuan in liquid funds.

But I was out of town at the time and couldn't come back for the time being. I had no choice but to transfer 10 million yuan to him and let him book the house first.

Chen Xi asked: "Have you been to see it?"

"Not yet. I've been quite busy lately. Besides, he wouldn't cheat me out of such a small amount of money. His annual salary is much higher than mine. But a few days ago, at a charity party, I ran into the guy my boyfriend and I were walking together. I figured since we're friends, I might as well get to know him.

If he is really like what my boyfriend said, the worst that can happen is that he leaves.

So I took a glass of red wine and went up to greet him.

I thought he wouldn't remember me after so much time had passed, so I was about to introduce myself, but he asked as soon as he saw me, "Are you Dong Ping's girlfriend?"

I was so surprised at that time. I didn't expect that he still remembered me. Out of politeness, I smiled at him to show that what he said was correct.

But the conversation that followed made me re-understand my boyfriend.

The man's name is Junye, and he is the manager of an entertainment club.

He and I were sitting on the sofa. We had a lot of similar views on work and investment. We had a great conversation and it felt like we had met too late. But then he suddenly asked me, "Do you know Dong Ping?"

I was completely stunned at the time, thinking that he was actually trying to steal my boyfriend's girlfriend just as my boyfriend said. I was a little angry and asked, "What do you mean by that?"

He smiled helplessly, obviously knowing that I had misunderstood something, and explained, "I hope you don't think too much about it. I just don't want to see such an excellent person like you being deceived."

My heart skipped a beat and my whole body went cold. I wanted to continue listening but was afraid of hearing a truth that would overturn my understanding.

Maybe I was too in love, so I still asked my question: "What do you mean? Can you explain it more clearly?"

Junye: "What did he tell you he did?"

"Software development manager," I said tremblingly, waiting for his response with all my attention.

When Junye heard my reply, he laughed out loud. When I looked at his smiling face, my heart sank to the bottom.

It’s so cold!

After he had finished laughing, he told me, "Dong Ping doesn't work in software. He's just a 'duck,' a male PR guy. The three of us met that day because I had just come out of the hotel with him after entertaining a guest."

I was devastated after hearing this. How could my boyfriend be a male PR? He is handsome, cool, yet so gentle to me, always thinking of me...

I didn't want to listen to this person slandering my boyfriend anymore, so I stood up and prepared to leave, but his next words made me weak in the knees.

He said slowly: "He must have asked you for a lot of money, right?"

Seeing my astonished look, he was very sure that his guess was correct, and continued with a smile: "That's because he beat up a client during a reception. The client asked him to pay 10 million in compensation, otherwise he would call the police to arrest him.

Ten million!

He simply can't pay it back because his family is so poor that he's lucky enough not to have to send money home. He has no way of getting the money to pay him back, so he has no choice but to target you."

He smiled evilly. He had an extremely handsome face, but I felt like he was mocking me, so I ran away.

Later, because I left without saying goodbye, I lost a big order, got scolded by my boss, and almost lost my position as design director.

After I got home, I looked at my boyfriend who was making sobering soup for me. At that moment, I didn’t know how to ask him what the truth was.

He is so nice and considerate to me. I have never met such a person in my life of more than 30 years.

I didn't want to lose this warmth, but I was unwilling to give up, so I asked, "A Ping, are you a male host?"

With a loud "clang", the pot lid in his hand fell to the ground and trembled three times before it stabilized. It was obvious that he was very panicked.
