In the villa.

Wrapped in a plush towel, Yu Chu Xue’s eyes lingered on the space where Zhao Yu had vanished, feeling a poignant mix of emotions before retreating back to the private karaoke chamber.

Closing her eyes, she inhaled deeply, letting the lingering scent of him envelop her senses.

When she opened her eyes again, they were drawn magnetically to the camera.

“Why didn’t you press record?”

Being the owner, she was well-acquainted with the workings of that device. She knew Zhao Yu had been bluffing, that he hadn’t recorded anything.

That intense half-hour had shifted her perspective, leaving her both vulnerable and introspective.

Yu Chu Xue reached for her phone.

After a short search, she found a picture of Zhao Yu in a group chat. She enlarged it, her gaze locked onto his features.

With a breathless anticipation, she brought the screen closer, her lips brushing the image of him.

The act sent ripples through her heart.

A realization dawned on her, she had genuinely fallen for Zhao Yu, despite the tumultuous beginnings of their relationship.

“Is this… love?”

she whispered to herself, feeling both exhilarated and terrified.

She yearned for their next rendezvous.

The very thought of seeing him again ignited a fire within her.

Determined, Yu Chu Xue opened her messaging app, poised to ask Zhao Yu a casual.

“What are you up to?” But she hesitated. To her astonishment, she hadn’t added him yet.

She scrolled up to Huang Zi Long’s pinned contact – previously labeled ‘fiance.’ She removed the tag and promptly messaged.

“Share Zhao Yu’s details with me.”

Meanwhile, in a dimly lit bar, Huang Zi Long was nursing a drink.

His friends around him were discussing Yu Chu Xue’s lavish expenditure to set up Zhao Yu.

The weight of his impending marriage to Yu Chu Xue hung over him like a dark cloud, a reminder of a haunting past he couldn’t shake.

Enough was enough.

He resolved to break off the engagement.

His phone buzzed, displaying a message from Yu Chu Xue.

Relief washed over him when he realized she only wanted Zhao Yu’s contact.

Promptly sharing the details, Huang Zi Long felt an odd sense of freedom.

Meanwhile, Yu Chu Xue, filled with anticipation, added Zhao Yu on various social platforms.

As she waited for his confirmation, memories of their upcoming meeting resurfaced, prompting her to prep herself for the evening.

News of what happened at the social gathering spread in a short period of time.

Huang Zi Long’s fiancee stood up for him and caused trouble for Zhao Yu.

Zhao Yu broke a bracelet worth more than 10 million, so Zhao Yu had to pay 9 million in compensation.

Any single entry could set off a hot search on campus, not to mention so many entries added together.

Almost half an hour after the incident, Zhao Yu’s class group chat was completely shocked.

Especially when a few people who had some relationship with Zhao Yu found out, they were even more shocked and hurriedly asked Zhao Yu about the situation.

At that time, Zhao Yu was still busy at Yu Chu Xue’s house and naturally did not reply to anyone.

This led many people to directly seek Zhao Yu at his dormitory, causing a commotion below his building.

When Zhao Yu returned to his dormitory, he found a crowd of people standing below. They occasionally were looking for him, making him curious.

He approached someone and casually asked, “Bro, what’s going on here?”

“Hey, didn’t you hear? Something happened to Zhao Yu…” The man turned around and stopped talking as he saw Zhao Yu’s face.

Immediately, he excitedly shouted, “Zhao Yu is here!”

This caught everyone’s attention, and when they saw Zhao Yu had indeed returned, they immediately surrounded him.

Zhao Yu then noticed some familiar faces in the crowd.

Liu Si Yu, Qiao Bing Bing, Huo Xiao Xi, and even Song Han were all gathered here.

Upon seeing Zhao Yu, Liu Si Yu hurriedly approached with a worried expression.

“Zhao Yu, 1 heard you broke Yu Chu Xue’s bracelet?”

Zhao Yu shrugged, “1 didn’t touch her bracelet, but it was indeed broken…”

It was true!

Liu Si Yu could not accepted it and questioned Zhao Yu about the nine million compensation.

Zhao Yu nodded and explained to her.

“I looked up the relevant laws, and there is indeed a shared responsibility clause in such cases…”

“How could you be so stupid?!” Liu Si Yu exclaimed, berating Zhao Yu.

“That’s nine million! What were you thinking? Why were you even at that event? Are you suit to that place?”

Everyone was shocked.

They didn’t expect Liu Si Yu to reacted this way.

For a moment, people looked at her with suspicion.

From her words, it seemed she wasn’t genuinely in love with Zhao Yu, contrary to rumors.

Zhao Yu was somewhat speechless. He didn’t expect Liu Si Yu to react so urgently to the situation.

“That’s nine million, vanished just like that…” Liu Si Yu began to cry.

She hadn’t expected the money to be squandered by Zhao Yu before it even reached her.

“Seems she doesn’t really love Zhao Yu.”

“Yeah, looks like she just loves his ‘MONEY’…”

“Zhao Yu should realized her true color now!”

Qiao Bing Bing smirked, not expecting Liu Si Yu to be this foolish. Exposing her true feelings over nine million?

However, surprisingly, Zhao Yu wasn’t angry. Instead, he took out a tissue to wipe her tears.

“He’s too whipped…”

“Even now, he still…”

Zhao Yu felt helpless. The original owner’s dying wish was Liu Si Yu. Even if she became greedy, he still had to show his love for her…

“Snap!”

Liu Si Yu slapped away the tissue, sobbing, “You owe me nine million, you have to compensate…”

Even Song Han felt chills hearing this.

She suddenly felt that her nickname, “Millionaire Song,” was a bit undeserving.

Compared to Liu Siyu, she was insignificant!

“1’11 compensate, don’t worry. It’s just ten million, I’ll have many more ten millions…”

Zhao Yu continued to console her.

“What are you talking about? Just ten million? If you were capable, would you let someone scam you out of nine million?”

“Would you trade your life for ten million if you were capable to earn it at the first place?!”

There was a collective gasp from the onlookers.

So they realized Zhao Yu’s ten million was earned risking his life!

Suddenly, many felt sympathy for Zhao Yu, thinking he risked his life for someone like Liu Si Yu.

“What a pity…”

The crowd sighed.

Liu Si Yu, noticing the whispers and pointing around her, felt embarrassed.

She glared at Zhao Yu and turned to run away..
