At the age of 28, just two years after graduating, Chi Chan became the youngest associate professor at Nanxing University School of Medicine, thanks to her outstanding academic achievements.

That same year, she and Ji Siyuan got married.

With both love and career success, and having married Ji Siyuan, the campus heartthrob who was popular at the city's No. 1 High School, Chi Chan became the envy of her old high school classmates, especially the girls.

At the wedding banquet, the classmates from Class 7 of the No. 1 Middle School occupied the largest and most prominent positions.

Several years after graduation, these once-promising individuals have all achieved success in their careers and become pillars of their respective industries, but they are still far behind the three in the front row.

Zhuo Zhiyuan, Shu Jia, Lin Da, and the most beautiful bride on stage are the four founders of Chenxing Media, which is now thriving in Xingcheng City.

Zhuo Zhiyuan and Shu Jia have settled their affairs internally, and Chi Chan married Ji Siyuan, the male god of their year. Now, only one golden bachelor remains—Lin Da.

As a result, the female classmates who were still single all turned their fiery gazes toward Linda.

Linda: "..."

Years have passed, and now he is successful in his career, but in private he is still the same quiet young man, unchanged.

When dealing with clients, Linda can immediately provide a litigation strategy that is the most time-saving, labor-saving, and has the highest success rate; when facing daily business cooperation, she can also negotiate the highest percentage of profits with the most calm and composed attitude...

At this moment, facing these "female demons" who saw him as if he were Tang Sanzang's flesh, Linda was quite at a loss.

Since they were all old classmates, it was hard to refuse. Over drinks, Linda was forced to drink quite a few beverages.

If it weren't for the excuse that I was driving, I would have been drunk long ago.

In the end, it was Zhuo Zhiyuan who came over and pulled Lin Da away, thus saving Lin Da from being besieged by the "female demons".

"Brother Da, how does it feel to be surrounded by girls? Isn't it awesome? Too bad, I'll never have that chance in my life!"

Zhuo Zhiyuan put his arm around Lin Da's shoulder while talking nonsense in a tone of great regret, but Lin Da couldn't be bothered to pay him any attention.

If Zhuo Zhiyuan's lips weren't curled up so dramatically at this moment, he might have believed his nonsense. Now, he had ample evidence to prove that Zhuo Zhiyuan was doing it on purpose, deliberately showing off his affection in front of him.

In the first year or two after he married Shu Jia, this guy would always come to him to complain, either about Shu Jia's faults or how bleak his future was.

blah blah blah blah — blah blah blah blah —

It was always the same few sentences over and over again. Zhuo Zhiyuan never got tired of hearing them, but Lin Da could recite them by heart.

Tired of listening, Linda finally said to the guy across from her, "If you're suffering like this, you might as well get a divorce!"

What was supposed to be a simple chat turned into a complete explosion of tension, igniting Zhuo Zhiyuan's inner turmoil.

Zhuo Zhiyuan stopped drinking and stopped complaining.

His brows furrowed like screws, his lips curled down into a V-shape, and his eyes swept over Linda several times before finally saying with utter disdain, "You single dog, what do you know!"

Single Linda: "..."

Zhuo Zhiyuan would come to see him every few days whenever he had a spare moment, and all he could say was that Shu Jia was wrong. He kindly offered suggestions, but in the end, it was his fault that was blamed!

Lin Da then kept her mouth shut and happily drank with her brother, not bothering to argue with Zhuo Zhiyuan, who was prone to acting crazy every few days.

Zhuo Zhiyuan had been complaining about Shu Jia to Lin Da for nearly two years. One day, when Zhuo Zhiyuan came to Lin Da again to drink, chat, and brag, he suddenly stopped complaining about Shu Jia and instead said to Lin Da in a hesitant tone, "Shu Jia—she's actually a pretty nice person!"

Linda: "???"

Then I was forced to eat a mouthful of dog food (a Chinese slang term for witnessing public displays of affection).

In the following years, Zhuo Zhiyuan still visited Lin Da for meals and drinks whenever he had free time, but the topic changed from 'complaining about Shu Jia' to 'my loving daily life with Shu Jia'!

As a result, the innocent Linda was fed countless times a variety of romantic displays of affection by Zhuo Zhiyuan.

Over time, he became numb to it.

For example, right now, Zhuo Zhiyuan's incredibly irritating expression is, in Lin Da's eyes, just a trivial little episode in the countless times he's been forced to eat dog food (a Chinese slang term for witnessing public displays of affection), and not worth his attention at all.

Linda automatically filtered out her brother's 'frequent madness' and glanced at Shu Jia, who was waving at them from a distance. She smiled and passed the question back: "Not happy at all. Do you want this opportunity?"

When Zhuo Zhiyuan saw Shu Jia, he gave Lin Da a sharp warning glance out of the corner of his eye, and immediately shut his mouth: "Jiajia, I brought Brother Da over, hurry up, we must help Brother Da get a good spot!"

Linda was completely bewildered. Shu Jia, who was excitedly crowding around her, and Zhuo Zhiyuan, who was standing beside her, supported her arms on either side and led her to the front of the crowd.

At this moment, it was time for the bouquet toss at Chi Chan and Ji Siyuan's wedding.

"Brother Da, you're the only one all alone among us. You'd better be enthusiastic when Xiao Chan throws the bouquet later!"

"Absolutely! When we get married and have kids, we'll all go out and take the kids out together. Just imagining that scene makes me so excited!"

As soon as Shu Jia finished speaking, Zhuo Zhiyuan immediately chimed in. The couple worked together so well that Lin Da didn't even have a chance to speak before being pushed to the front of the line.
