Yan Miao has always felt that she has been insecure and unlucky in her love life over the years. In her student days, she liked the brilliant academic genius Qin Zhou, but he couldn't see her at all.

She is like a grain of dust or a grain of sand, disappearing with a gust of wind, leaving no trace in other people's hearts.

Her unrequited love for Qin Zhou was like a secret she couldn't reveal to anyone. She never told anyone except Song Qingyou. After a long time, when she finally forgot about him and wanted to start a new life, she met Li Yuan.

This person looks clean-cut, handsome, and kind to her.

At first, Li Yuan treated her well, but after they got together, Li Yuan became distant. Yan Miao had never been in a relationship before, and Li Yuan was her first love. She always thought this was normal and that she was overthinking things, and never looked for problems in Li Yuan.

Li Yuan found her annoying, so she reduced the frequency of her text messages. Li Yuan found her too talkative, so she spoke less. Li Yuan said she didn't look good in long skirts, so she started wearing short skirts. Li Yuan said her family had gambling debts, so she helped them pay them off.

She just wanted to have a proper relationship, but she never expected that this relationship was actually a setup. Li Yuan didn't like her at all and even wanted to send her to someone else's bed.

Yan Miao's face turned deathly pale, her body trembled slightly, and she couldn't believe what she was hearing.

She even tried to deceive herself, to believe that it was all fake, that she was dreaming, and that she hadn't woken up from the dream yet.

Yan Miao was too well protected; she had never encountered bad people, so she thought there were no bad people in the world.

Li Yuan's voice was clear and distinct, and Yan Miao could no longer deceive herself.

Her eyes were moist, her eye rims were red, and two strings of crystal tears slid down her cheeks. She stood there frozen, like a puppet that had lost its soul.

A soft texture suddenly touched her cheek. Yan Miao lowered her eyes and saw that Song Qingyou was wiping away her tears with a handkerchief.

Yan Miao couldn't control her emotions any longer and hugged Song Qingyou, sobbing silently.

Song Qingyou gently patted her back: "A person like that isn't worth your tears."

Yan Miao seemed to awaken from a dream.

Yes, does such a scumbag deserve to cry?

She's the eldest daughter of the Yan family, why should she cry for a scoundrel like Li Yuan!

Yan Miao suddenly straightened up and wiped away her tears with the back of her hand. "You're right. Why should I cry? It's better to see through such scum sooner rather than later."

Jiang Xun was somewhat surprised. She thought that a fool like Yan Miao would cry, make a scene, and even threaten suicide for this scumbag. She didn't expect that Yan Miao could calm down so quickly after the truth was revealed, which was a bit beyond Jiang Xun's expectations.

She raised an eyebrow and said sincerely, "It seems there's still hope for you."

Yan Miao: "..."

Song Qingyou smiled slightly, not surprised at all, and said softly, "Would you like to go in?"

"Yes!" Yan Miao's expression tightened: "I want to expose this scumbag myself!"

Inside the bathroom, Li Yuan's pleas for mercy never stopped. He was pinned down by two burly men, unable to move. His hair and pants were soaked with water, and his once handsome features now looked utterly disheveled.

With a creak.

The door was pushed open from the outside.

When Li Yuan looked up and saw Yan Miao, his eyes lit up immediately, and he pleaded urgently, "Miao Miao, save me! Thank goodness you actually came! These people are chasing my dad for his gambling debts. They're demanding money from me and saying they'll chop off my hand if I don't pay! Please save me, Miao Miao, I'll pay you back all this money later!"

Perhaps he was too eager, for he didn't even notice why there were two other people following Yan Miao, or why the burly men who came to ask for money suddenly looked at the two behind her with respect.

Yan Miao looked at him with icy eyes.

Seeing that she didn't speak, Li Yuan became anxious and started to speak recklessly: "Miaomiao! Didn't you say you loved me the most? You won't even help me with this little thing? I'll pay you back all the money! By the way, she's here. You can kidnap her and let me go, okay? I haven't slept with this woman yet, damn it! She must be very easy to sleep with. You guys are getting off easy, brothers, please let me go!"

Yan Miao looked at Li Yuan lying on the ground as if she had just met him.

This man is so unfamiliar, so vicious.

Jiang Xun stepped forward, wanting to slap Li Yuan's incessantly chattering mouth until it was shattered.

Song Qingyou reached out to stop her, shaking her head slightly.

They can make the arrangements; the rest is up to Yan Miao to decide.

Jiang Xun paused, but ultimately did not go forward.

She was also quite curious about how Yan Miao would handle these things.

At this moment, Li Yuan finally noticed something was wrong. He realized that ever since Yan Miao and her two beautiful and aloof friends came in, the group hadn't said a word and were all staring at the people behind Yan Miao.

Li Yuan wasn't stupid. He had been too hasty earlier, but now that he suddenly realized something was wrong, his expression changed drastically: "Yan Miao! They're not from the casino at all, are they! You arranged this, it was all your doing! You bitch, you fucking let them go and let me go right now!"

Li Yuan stopped letting himself be slaughtered and began to struggle violently, cursing loudly as he struggled, spewing out all sorts of foul language.

Yan Miao strode forward and slapped Li Yuan across the face: "You rotten person! Try swearing again!"

Li Yuan was stunned by the sudden slap. The tingling pain on his cheek reminded him that this was real; his usually obedient and weak girlfriend, Yan Miao, had really hit him.

Li Yuan was instantly enraged, glaring fiercely at Yan Miao: "You dare hit me? You fucking dare hit me? I really regret not sleeping with you. Once you're pregnant with my child, will you still dare to hit me! You bitch, let go of me right now!"
