As soon as he heard the sound of the door lock turning, Li Yunqian got up and almost ran to the door.

Shen Zhiyi stood at the door, her face devoid of the smile he had expected.

Her face was pale, her eyes burning with fire. Her gaze swept over the romantic decorations behind him, and she gave a cold, mocking snort.

Li Yunqian's heart skipped a beat.

"Little Darling?" He carefully closed the door, a sudden sense of foreboding rising within him.

Shen Zhiyi didn't look at him, walked straight past him, and headed towards the bedroom.

She yanked open the wardrobe, dragged out his suitcase, and, seeing the expensive brand logo on it, let out another cold laugh in anger.

Bankruptcy?

Is it possible to use such an expensive suitcase after going bankrupt?

If he were really short of money, he should have put this box on a second-hand platform for recycling long ago!

Now it seems that what needs to be recycled is her brain!

Shen Zhiyi slammed the suitcase to the ground, opened it, and deftly tore off his suitcase and shirt one by one, throwing them into the suitcase.

"Little darling! What are you doing?"

Li Yunqian rushed over and grabbed her hand.

Shen Zhiyi suddenly shook him off.

She looked up at him, her eyes burning with icy rage. "Li Yunqian, is it fun to play with me? Is it particularly interesting to watch me run around and worry for you like a fool?"

She questioned him repeatedly, her eyes red with anger.

She was even worried that he wasn't eating well!

She was even worried that he would be criticized!

She should let those people on the forums tear him apart!

Li Yunqian's heart clenched, and he rushed forward urgently, "No, Xiaoguai, it's not like that! Let me explain..."

“Explain?” Shen Zhiyi pushed his hand away. “Yes, you can explain. You’re always like this. You have your own legitimate reasons for everything you say and do.”

"But have you ever considered me? Have you treated me as a normal person you can entrust your life to, and respected me?"

"You deceived me, used me, and recuperated here, all in order to deliver a fatal blow to that Sun Xingkui!"

"Li Yunqian, am I also a link in your business operation? Am I also an obedient pawn in your carefully crafted scheme? Just because you know me, does that mean you can use and deceive me with impunity?"

"No! Darling, no!" Li Yunqian strode forward and hugged her tightly, his heart filled with immense panic. "How could you be part of my business operations? I care about you, I value you..."

"Don't touch me!" Shen Zhiyi pushed him away forcefully, pointed at the decorations outside the door, and said angrily, "Why today of all days? Why did I have to find out all this from someone else on my birthday?"

"If you really cared about me, you wouldn't have lied to me like this!"

She dragged his suitcase and threw it out the door.

She turned around and pushed the man who had followed her out the door as well.

I don't want to see you right now!

"Get out of here!"

She even tried to gain his love and trust, but in the end, she only found out he was full of scheming!

Shen Zhiyi clenched his fist in anger, his teeth almost grinding to powder.

Li Yunqian.

How dare they treat her like a fool and make fun of her!

"My darling! Listen to me!"

"Bang!"

His response was a deafening slam of the door shut.

Li Yunqian stood outside the door, his blood running cold.

He looked at his disheveled suitcase at his feet, then at the tightly closed door in front of him, a door that seemed unlikely to ever open again. A chilling cold rose from the soles of his feet and swept through his entire body.

Yes... he lied to her.

Regardless of the initial intention, deception is deception.

She has the right to be angry.

They also have the right... not to want him.

Inside the door.

Shen Zhiyi leaned against the door, took a deep breath, and forcibly suppressed the soreness in her nose.

She wouldn't allow herself to cry.

It's not worth shedding tears for this kind of deception.

She suddenly got up and began cleaning up Li Yunqian's traces in the house as if cleaning up a virus.

He threw away the clothes that were hanging on the clothes rack and hadn't been put away yet!

Throw away the men's cologne left on the table!

Throw away the coffee cup he used!

And throw away all those weird and wonderful things in the room that she used to torment her!

After tidying up for a while, Shen Zhiyi found a hardcover, hardcover poetry collection at the bottom of the bookshelf.

She gave a cold laugh.

People who read financial reports every day can actually read poetry.

Reading so much poetry, doesn't it just leave you with a belly full of scheming?

Not romantic or sincere at all!

Just as she was about to throw it away, she suddenly saw something in the folded pages.

Shen Zhiyi opened the poetry collection and took a look—

It is a ginkgo leaf.

It was a leaf she told him to throw away because she thought it was childish while filming on set.

He didn't say anything at the time, he just put it in his pocket.

She thought he had thrown it away a long time ago.

Shen Zhiyi was somewhat stunned.

She looked down at the well-preserved ginkgo leaf, its veins clearly visible, like marks left by time.

Shen Zhiyi glanced at the poetry collection subconsciously.

On the page he was tucking in, I discovered a concise short poem.

The poem's title has only two words—

"only".

Below the title is a line of small characters written by Li Yunqian, so powerful they seem to penetrate the paper.

"The moment I picked it up, I never thought of throwing it away. Just like loving you."

The air seemed to freeze at that moment.

All the anger, grievances, and disappointment leaked out like a punctured balloon at that moment.

Only a complex, bittersweet emotion remained, spreading through her heart.

Shen Zhiyi slammed the poetry collection shut and threw it onto the desk.
