The corridor of the high-end apartment was particularly empty. Her voice was very soft, and after she called out, it dissipated along with the huge space. Tang Miao stood at the door and waited for a while.
Not long after, footsteps were heard in the apartment. As the footsteps approached, the door handle made a heavy turning sound. When the turning sound ended, the apartment door was pushed open. Ke Yi stood at the door and glanced at Tang Miao who was standing outside.
It was already past eight in the evening. But the lights were not on in Ke Yi's apartment. The darkness enveloped the woman's thin body, as if she was not used to the light. Even when she opened the door, the light from the corridor that poured in made Ke Yi frown slightly.

She was wearing a white lace nightgown with a dark silk robe on the outside. The loose robe made the woman's figure look like a paper cut out by scissors, revealing a sharp sense of thinness.
Her long hair was loose, hanging down on her thin shoulders, and her face, which was usually made up, was without any color. After adapting to the light outside, she looked up at Tang Miao. There was no expression in her dark eyes, and her eye sockets were red and swollen. When she saw Tang Miao, there was not even any emotion or feeling in her eyes. But Ke Yi was still a little surprised that Tang Miao came to her. She looked at Tang Miao, her peeling lips moved, and asked a question.

Her voice was hoarse, like the rusty "squeak" of a faucet that had not been drained for a long time. She seemed a little surprised when she heard her own voice. But the surprise flashed across her lifeless eyes, and then she returned to her lifeless look.
"Are you thirsty?" Tang Miao looked at Ke Yi and asked her.
After she asked this, Ke Yi looked up at her. Following her gaze, Tang Miao opened the door that she had not completely opened and walked into her apartment.
After entering the apartment, Tang Miao turned on the light at the door. When the light came on, Ke Yi frowned. Tang Miao asked if she wanted to change shoes, but after getting no response, he entered her home.
Tang Miao went to the tea room of the apartment. The tea room was deserted, and even the water purifier looked like it hadn't been used for a long time. Seeing this, Tang Miao left the tea room and went to the kitchen.
In the kitchen, Tang Miao took out two bottles of mineral water from the refrigerator. After taking the mineral water, she unscrewed the bottle cap and rinsed the kettle next to her. After rinsing, she poured the mineral water into the kettle and pressed the switch of the kettle.
While the kettle was boiling, Tang Miao casually washed a cup. After washing the cup, Tang Miao turned around and asked Ke Yi a question.

After Tang Miao asked this, Ke Yi, who was standing in the living room without any movement, looked at her. The woman stood by the kitchen stove, supporting herself on the edge of the kitchen counter with one hand. She looked at her with a questioning look in her eyes, really asking her if she wanted to eat.
Ke Yi's lifeless eyes gradually began to light up when Tang Miao entered her home, took some mineral water to boil, and asked her if she wanted to eat something.
She seemed to be led by Tang Miao and became more energetic.
But all this energy was only enough for her to answer Tang Miao's questions.

Since meeting He Xiao that night, Ke Yi has been here for two days without eating or drinking. In these two days, she not only did not eat or drink, but she did not even close her eyes. Sometimes she suddenly came to her senses and wondered if she was dead.
After she answered Tang Miao's question in this way, Tang Miao nodded in response.
After answering, Tang Miao turned around and searched in Ke Yi's kitchen. This apartment was Ke Yi's own house, and she never cooked for herself, so there was nothing in the house. When Tang Miao opened the freezer of the refrigerator, he found some wontons made by his grandmother.

"good."
After Ke Yi finished speaking, Tang Miao responded again, took out the wontons, and started to clean the pot and boil water.
-
Wontons are all wrapped. It is quite simple to cook.
The water in the kettle boiled first, and Tang Miao asked Ke Yi to pour the water herself. Ke Yi listened to her and came over to pour a glass of water with the cup that Tang Miao had washed. After pouring the water, Ke Yi sat on the sofa in the living room, drinking water while waiting for her wontons.
Soon, some aroma wafted out of the kitchen. Ke Yi drank the hot water, and her poor and dry stomach seemed to be activated. Tang Miao brought out the wontons and placed them on the low table in front of the sofa. Ke Yi took the futon and sat down, crossed her legs, took the tableware and started eating.
The wontons were freshly cooked and were still hot.
Because there was nothing else at home, Tang Miao just boiled it in water and added a little seasoning to the soup to make it taste more delicious.
Ke Yi used chopsticks to put the wontons into the spoon, pinching the spoon handle with her fingers. The hot steam steamed her pale face, making her gradually look more popular.
"It's almost done." Tang Miao sat on the sofa nearby, watched Ke Yi blow the wontons for a while, and reminded her.
After Tang Miao's reminder, Ke Yi moved her eyes and looked at her. Tang Miao smiled at her. Ke Yi retracted her gaze and took a bite of the wonton.
Grandma's wontons are really delicious. Even He Xiao, who cooks all day and has no particular requirements for food, likes them. The thin wonton skin and fine fillings, even if they are just boiled in water, have an indescribable deliciousness.
He Xiao had eaten these wontons when he was a child, so Ke Yi naturally grew up eating them. Biting the wontons one by one, her taste buds seemed to be awakened by them. Ke Yi held the cutlery and ate attentively. Even though Tang Miao was sitting next to her, she had no time to pay attention.
While Ke Yi was eating, Tang Miao didn't say anything. After she reminded Ke Yi that she could eat, she withdrew her gaze from Ke Yi.
She was holding her phone, flipping through the app in her phone, checking something. After eating half a bowl of wontons, Ke Yi regained some vitality and the ability to think. While eating the wontons, she asked Tang Miao a question in her recovered voice.
"What are you doing here?"
Tang Miao sat on the sofa and told her some things about her and her grandmother. Ke Yi sat in front of the low table, with steam rising from her eyes. She stared at the tabletop in a trance while eating wontons. She seemed to be in a daze, but also seemed to be listening to Tang Miao.
Tang Miao looked at her, her expression remained unchanged, and she said.
Having said that, Tang Miao pursed his lips slightly and said.
After she finished speaking, Tang Miao looked at her, neither denying nor admitting it.
If this was Tang Miao's revenge, then it was just right. She lost everything and still had to endure her sarcasm, so Tang Miao's words really made her completely angry.
When she mentioned this, the sneer on Ke Yi's face disappeared, and she turned to look at her. Through the mist of wontons, Tang Miao's eyes were still calm. She looked at Ke Yi and said.
She really doesn't have to worry about anything.
"I chatted with my grandma this morning, and she told me that you and Ji Junlin canceled your engagement party because Ji Junlin was going to be assigned abroad. She was worried that there would be problems between the two of you because of your long-distance relationship, so she temporarily canceled your engagement party. After a few years, when Ji Junlin comes back, if your feelings are still the same, then continue your engagement. If your feelings have faded, then separate completely."
"Are you just here to confirm with me whether the real situation is as grandma said?" Ke Yi asked.
Ke Yi listened to what Tang Miao said. Maybe because she had just eaten, or maybe because she hadn't eaten for a long time, her train of thought couldn't keep up with Tang Miao.
After saying this, Tang Miao said, "He didn't say anything. He just told you the follow-up story based on your lie."
"Because He Xiao knew about this."
Yesterday afternoon, after her grandmother found out about Tang Miao and Ji Junlin's relationship, she found her and asked her to cancel her engagement with Ji Junlin. She also told her that she would find excuses and reasons so that she didn't have to worry about anything.
Ke Yi even got emotional when she said this. She looked at Tang Miao, and her body even trembled a little. She and Tang Miao were not originally in a competitive relationship, because she felt that Tang Miao was not qualified to compete with her. She wanted Ji Junlin, and in the end, although she spent money, Ji Junlin was hers.
"Come to laugh at me?" Ke Yi said this with a mocking look on her face when Tang Miao looked at her.
"So you came to me now to show off to me, to show off that even though I told He Xiao about you and Ji Junlin, and told him how mentally ill you are, He Xiao still chose to love you and to be with you. And even said that because he loves you so much, he didn't even tell you a word of what I said to him yesterday?"
After Ke Yi questioned Tang Miao like this, Tang Miao did not respond. She just shook her head and said.
After finishing speaking, Tang Miao said, "I know that grandma's reason is a lie. She knows the relationship between Ji Junlin and I, so she chose between me and He Xiao and you and Ji Junlin."
"I just came to confirm whether you told He Xiao everything about me last night."
When she looked over, Ke Yi also looked at her. With the nourishment of wontons and water, the lifeless doll disappeared, and the eyes of the spoiled young lady also regained their former sharpness.
After she finished speaking, Ke Yi looked at her, and it was unclear what emotion was in her eyes for a moment. Finally, she asked, "Did He Xiao tell you?"
After Ke Yi finished speaking, Tang Miao said, "I came to ask about your visit to He Xiao last night."
"So I think your father's illness yesterday was probably fake. You just wanted He Xiao to find you alone and tell him something. And avoid your grandma who already knows about this."
"Because of this, she asked you and Ji Junlin to cancel the engagement party." Tang Miao said.
"Yesterday you went to He Xiao and told him that your father was ill and asked him to keep it a secret from grandma and let He Xiao go alone. When He Xiao came back, he told me that your engagement party was cancelled because of your father's illness."
Tang Miao told Ke Yi her guess.
After Ke Yi asked, Tang Miao said, "No."
And now, the engagement party she paid for with Ji Junlin and her was cancelled because of Tang Miao's appearance. Tang Miao took the money she gave her and got together with her brother.
Half a year ago, she was still a woman who was superior to this ordinary piano teacher, with a family background and a boyfriend. Now, she has nothing, while Tang Miao has everything.
After Tang Miao finished speaking, the anger in Ke Yi's eyes paused.
The engagement was suddenly cancelled, and it was her grandmother and her parents who had to clean up the mess. She locked herself in this apartment for two days.
After Tang Miao finished speaking, Ke Yi, who was eating wontons, laughed.
"So why are you telling me this?" Ke Yi asked.
Tang Miao mentioned what happened last night.
After Ke Yi finished laughing, she said, "Why did you come to see me if you knew that?"
She didn't know why Tang Miao came to tell her this reason.
After Ke Yi asked, Tang Miao raised his eyes from the phone screen and looked at her.
She didn't know what reason her grandmother would come up with to explain to the guests who had already been invited that her and Ji Junlin's engagement party had suddenly been cancelled. But after listening to Tang Miao's explanation, this should be her grandmother's reason.
"No." Tang Miao said, "I just guessed it myself."
The laugh was full of sarcasm and was not very pleasant to hear.
"That's different from what grandma said."
"No."
"She said that if you cancel the engagement party, then the two of you will just break up. But if you're already engaged, it will be more troublesome to separate at that time."
“That’s part of my plan.”
