The silver-gray suit was still impeccably tailored, but its owner's颓废 (颓废 is a difficult word to translate directly, but it conveys a sense of decadence, listlessness, and dejection) demeanor made it appear particularly disheveled.
The tie is also missing.
The top two buttons of his white shirt were undone, leaving it loose and open.
With Chen Jiayuan's gloomy eyebrows and eyes, he looked as if he had been crushed by a huge blow, exuding a sense of dejection from head to toe.
When Chen Jiayuan saw the Rolls-Royce slowly driving up from a distance and stopping at the entrance of the building, and then saw Luo Changchuan in the driver's seat, his expression turned even uglier.
"Wan Mingyi, let's talk!"
Forcing himself to remain calm and ignoring Luo Changchuan's gaze, Chen Jiayuan walked to the passenger side door and said...
Wan Mingyi was filled with helplessness.
She asked herself, and she and Chen Jiayuan had already made things perfectly clear, there was nothing left to entangle.
Even with her best friend, she made it clear that there was no possibility between her and Chen Jiayuan anymore.
Even so, Chen Jiayuan still managed to get her new address and even found her downstairs.
It seems she should not only move to a different house, but also get her best friend—no, her best friend should be unconditionally on her side, even if she cheats on her boyfriend, her best friend should be the one to cover for her.
If that's the case, then she can't be considered a best friend; she can only be considered a friend.
It seems I can't keep this friend either!
"You go back first, drive carefully on the way."
After saying something to Luo Changchuan, Wan Mingyi opened the car door and got out.
The Rolls-Royce slowly reversed.
"I've always felt that we've already made everything perfectly clear between us. I have nothing more to say. Since you still have something to say, then say it. But I hope this is the last time. Please don't come looking for me again!"
Wan Mingyi walked up to Chen Jiayuan, looked at him calmly, and said, "Speak."
"You did this on purpose, didn't you?"
Chen Jiayuan's eyes were bloodshot. "Wan Mingyi, you did this on purpose!! You've never loved me. You're only with me because you're interested in jewelry design, and I happen to be a jewelry design major. You think I'm useful to you, right?"
Wan Mingyi was stunned.
Chen Jiayuan continued, "Your so-called selfless dedication is nothing but an excuse for you to steal my knowledge. 'Teaching a disciple can starve the master.' Three years is enough time for you to learn everything I have, isn't it?"
"Wan Mingyi, you never loved me! All your affection, all your hard work, was for yourself. I trusted you so much, and what did you give me in return for your tenderness and meticulous care? Wan Mingyi, I am who I am today because of you!!!"
Wan Mingyi was dumbfounded.
This is the first time I've ever seen someone so capable of distorting the truth to this extent!
Sure enough, all the effort I put in back then was not only wasted, but was also completely wasted!
Seeing that Wan Mingyi remained silent, Chen Jiayuan assumed that he had hit the nail on the head, and his emotions became even more agitated.
The party had already started and there was no one left in the venue, but Chen Jiayuan remained seated.
His mind was filled with the scores the 10 judges gave him.
It is unknown what Jiang Wanruo's initial score was, but even if we take the lowest score among the other 9 judges, his average score is second only to Ye Li.
If it weren't for those people's misleading words, and if he hadn't stood up to report Ye Li, he would have been a shoo-in for second place, just like last year, winning the silver award.
Even more so, if it weren't for Ye Li, he would have been this year's gold medalist.
Everything went as he had predicted.
But it's all because of Wan Mingyi!
Wan Mingyi wanted to take revenge on him because he used her inspiration to design the "Longing" set, and because he founded Shiny with several others but didn't invite her to join.
Although it is unknown when Ye Li and Wan Mingyi met, Ye Li's studio was established after the Biyue Bay exhibition.
Not to mention Wan Mingyi, who shouldn't have been eligible to participate in the competition in the first place, suddenly had a portfolio and a letter of recommendation from a big name.
Without Wan Mingyi, there would be no Ye Li, and certainly no Ye Li Studio.
How could he have ended up in such a miserable state today?
It's all because of Wan Mingyi!!!
"It's all because of you!"
Chen Jiayuan glared at Wan Mingyi with resentment. "I taught you everything without holding back, and this is how you stab me in the back? Wan Mingyi, does Luo Changchuan know what a wicked woman you are? You keep calling me 'husband,' do you dare to tear off your mask and let him see your true face?"
Shouting loudly, Chen Jiayuan reached out to grab Wan Mingyi's shoulder.
Bang!
Despite the complete silence, at that moment, Wan Mingyi and Chen Jiayuan heard a deafening roar.
The blinding high beams shone directly at Wan Mingyi, accurately and ruthlessly enveloping her, and also causing Chen Jiayuan, who hadn't even touched Wan Mingyi yet, to pause.
Bang!
The driver's side door slammed shut, and a handsome man in a black shirt and dress pants slowly walked in.
Wan Mingyi then noticed that the Rolls-Royce was parked under a tree not far away.
Luo Changchuan did not leave.
In the dead of night, in complete silence, their words drifted clearly through the car window on the night breeze.
He listened intently to everything Chen Jiayuan said.
With a look of utter disdain, as if certain that with him around, Chen Jiayuan wouldn't dare do anything to Wan Mingyi, Luo Changchuan walked slowly and deliberately to the two of them.
Luo Changchuan draped the suit jacket he was carrying over Wan Mingyi's shoulders, gave Chen Jiayuan a look of utter disdain, and then looked at Wan Mingyi with a helpless expression. "Baby, as a man, I'm sorry to be in the same species as a man like this!"
