Click, the door to Ji Xiaoxiao's room opened.
"Tangtang," Yan Yi said softly.
Ji Xiaoxiao's eyes were closed, her breathing was even, and she seemed to be fast asleep.
"Tangtang, I will definitely marry you."
"Need not."
"Wow."
Ji Xiaoxiao suddenly spoke, startling Yan Yi.
"Tangtang, aren't you asleep?"
Ji Xiaoxiao said, "How can I fall asleep?"
Yan Yi smiled awkwardly, "Tangtang, I'm sorry for appearing so late. It's because of my old man. If he hadn't opposed us being together, our child would be old enough to run errands by now."
Ji Xiaoxiao didn't know how to retort. "Does the Yan family's child need soy sauce?"
"Yan Yi, you don't need to go against your family for my sake. I'm just a beautiful middle-aged woman, more than good enough for you. But I don't love you."
"Don't you love me?"
Ji Xiaoxiao nodded solemnly, giving Yan Yi no hope whatsoever.
"You really don't love me?" Yan Yi asked incredulously. "I'm so handsome, I own a house and a car, how can you not love me?"
“If I don’t love you, I don’t love you. Besides, I don’t lack a house or a car,” Ji Xiaoxiao said.
Her hot pot restaurant became increasingly famous, attracting a constant stream of customers. In one day, she earned as much as some people did in a month.
Yan Yi was devastated and threatened, "If you don't love me and you won't marry me, then I'll die."
Ji Xiaoxiao rolled her eyes. "Then you might as well go die."
Yan Yi turned and left. Ji Xiaoxiao shook her head. "He's not grown up yet. What kind of wife is he going to marry? He'll just be ruining someone else's daughter."
The next day, news spread like wildfire: Yan Yi, the young master of the Yan family, had committed suicide by jumping into the river the previous night.
Ji Xiaoxiao was dumbfounded, while Wu Kangzhi burst into tears.
Is he really dead?
Ji Xiaoxiao felt a tightness in her chest. There was a man she thought was dead, but she had missed her chance. What a damn loss.
Even after Ji Xiaoxiao left this world, she still couldn't let go.
Dark space.

Ji Xiaoxiao glanced at the information indifferently and went straight to the Panlong Golden Pillar. Inside the Panlong Golden Pillar sat a person who was not moving.
"Has the master not returned yet?"
Ji Xiaoxiao sat down and played with the black soil out of sheer boredom.
...
Xie Huaqing and Xie Baoqing are sisters who look very similar.
The older sister, Xie Huaqing, is stunningly beautiful and multi-talented, shining like the sun from childhood to adulthood. Compared to her perfect older sister, the younger sister, Xie Baoqing, appears ordinary and unremarkable.
During her university years, Xie Huaqing fell in love with Shi Hao, a super rich young man at the school. However, for some unknown reason, after two years together, Xie Huaqing suddenly left Shi Hao. Shi Hao did not try to stop her, but instead spent his days in a drunken stupor, becoming negative and decadent. It was not until he met Xie Huaqing by chance that Shi Hao began to change.
Xie Baoqing lacked Xie Huaqing's aloof and noble temperament, but her face, bearing an 80% resemblance to Xie Huaqing's, was enough to break Shi Hao's heart. After half a year of relentless pursuit, Xie Baoqing succumbed to Shi Hao's tender trap and finally agreed to be with him.
Two months into their relationship, Shi Hao suddenly proposed to Xie Baoqing, who happily accepted.
After graduating from university, Xie Baoqing and Shi Hao moved into a detached villa. Shi Hao's personality changed drastically; he started bringing home a different woman every day and engaging in sexual activity anywhere in the villa. Xie Baoqing cried, questioned, made a scene, and argued, but Shi Hao continued to beat and verbally abuse her.
Xie Baoqing deeply loved Shi Hao, and Shi Hao's various actions broke her heart. However, Xie Baoqing remained devoted to Shi Hao, even when the Shi family company faced a major crisis that might have implicated her. Xie Baoqing had no regrets and took care of Shi Hao's daily life with all her heart.
Three months later, the Shi family's company weathered the crisis and reached new heights. But what Xie Baoqing received was not Shi Hao's change of heart, but a divorce agreement.
Xie Baoqing was unwilling, so Shi Hao took drastic measures. One day, Shi Hao and her sister Xie Huaqing appeared together, each leading a four- or five-year-old boy. Shi Hao explained his purpose to Xie Baoqing: he had always loved Xie Huaqing, and he wanted to marry her because of her face.
In other words, she was a stand-in for her sister.
Xie Baoqing was on the verge of collapse.
Shi Hao continued to attack Xie Baoqing, pointing out that the four- or five-year-old boy was his and Xie Huaqing's son, and that Xie Huaqing was now three months pregnant with their second child. Xie Huaqing also urged Xie Baoqing to accept the situation and not interfere with their happy ending.
Whether Xie Baoqing liked it or not, Shi Hao broke off his relationship with her and held a grand wedding with Xie Huaqing.
Xie Baoqing was filled with hatred, but she was just an ordinary woman, too afraid to speak out, and slunk home. Her parents, however, pointed fingers at her, calling her shameless for stealing her sister's man. If even her own parents said such things, the words from outsiders were a thousand times worse. Xie Baoqing could no longer bear it. Unable to fight back, she could only take her anger out on herself. She attempted suicide by cutting her wrists in front of Shi Hao and Xie Huaqing's door to prove her innocence.
Xie Baoqing never understood what she had done wrong until her death. It was Shi Hao who pursued her initially; she didn't shamelessly cling to him. Besides, at that time, Shi Hao and Xie Huaqing had already broken up and lived in different places; neither was married. What was wrong with them being together?
She married Shi Hao, but when Xie Huaqing returned, she openly entered the house and demanded that she divorce Shi Hao. She was the mistress, and she was the one who deserved to be despised.
