That night, Zhuang Long tossed and turned in bed, unable to sleep.

He only fell asleep when it was almost dawn. Not long after he fell asleep, he started to dream. This dream was intermittent, but the content was the same. It kept replaying those devastatingly ambiguous scenes.

It was nine in the morning when he woke up.

Zhuang Long came to the first floor in low spirits. He said to the butler, “Order the chef to make some porridge and prepare some appetizers. I’ll eat those.”

“Okay.”

Zhuang Long saw a bag hanging on the wall and asked the head butler, “Yinbing is here?”

“Miss Ji arrived this morning. She’s in the laboratory building now.”

“Oh.”

She was here and refused to greet him. Was she still complaining about him? Zhuang Long was thinking about something and did not notice that the head butler looked a little conflicted. He kept frowning and looked like he had something on his mind. When the porridge arrived, Zhuang Long ate a spoonful.

The warm but not hot porridge actually did not look good, but with the sour and spicy dried radish, Zhuang Long felt that it was especially appetizing. He finished his breakfast and went to the laboratory building.

Zhuang Long changed into his coat and walked into the laboratory. Just like a few days ago, he ran to see the simulation of uterus number three immediately. The little mouse was still alive, but the monitor showed that its bodily functions were gradually fading.

Ji Yinbing walked over from behind with a document. She pushed her glasses up her nose and said, “I failed again.”

Zhuang Long was not pessimistic.

He said, “At least it lived in it for nine days this time.” Nine days. That was a good improvement.

Ji Yinbing understood this logic.

She recorded the data and finished it. Then, she said to Zhuang Long with a strange expression, “You look like you’re not affected and are in a good mood.”

Thinking that Ji Yinbing was talking about what happened last night, Zhuang Long shook his head and said, “I have to accept reality.” He had hurt Xiao Li before. This was an established fact. He could only compensate her double the amount and love her. Too much sadness was useless.

Logically speaking, it should be a good thing that he had such a good mentality. However, looking at Ji Yinbing’s expression, she seemed to pity him. Zhuang Long was puzzled again.

Zhuang Long asked her, “Why are you looking at me like I’m pitiful?”

Ji Yinbing’s eyes flashed and she suddenly said, “Do you know what I’m talking about?”

Huh?

What was she talking about?

“Weren’t you asking me about what happened last night?”

Ji Yinbing looked at him even more sympathetically.

Zhuang Long had a feeling that there was something he did not know, and that thing was especially bad for him. Otherwise, Ji Yinbing, who had always been more open-minded, would not look at him like he was looking at a pitiful worm. Then, what exactly happened?

Zhuang Long asked Ji Yinbing in confusion, “What happened?”

Ji Yinbing opened her mouth, but she could not bear to say it.

In the end, she said, “Go and read this morning’s newspaper.” She observed Zhuang Long’s expression and saw that he had a thoughtful expression. She added, “Just read the entertainment newspaper.”

Whenever he heard people mention entertainment newspapers, Zhuang Long would think of Bruce.

“I’ll go take a look.”

He turned around and walked out, his footsteps a little messy.

Before seeing the newspaper, Zhuang Long had already guessed a possibility. Under the head butler’s trembling gaze, Zhuang Long found today’s entertainment newspaper in the basket. On the front of the newspaper were a few large blue words—

Best Actor Bruce’s wedding is approaching. The wedding date has been confirmed!

After reading this row of words, Zhuang Long’s guess was completely confirmed.

Bruce was getting married!

Who was the bride?

Zhuang Long prayed to God that the bride would not be his ex-wife. However, God did not love Zhuang Long and abandoned him. When Zhuang Long saw the name Clarice Lawson in the newspaper, his heart skipped a beat.

He stood up abruptly.

The commotion was especially loud. Everyone in the room lowered their heads, not daring to look at him.

Xiao Li and Bruce’s wedding was set to be in June.

June…

As Yan Nuo and Ji Yinbing would also hold their wedding on June 14th, Zhuang Long, who was originally looking forward to June, suddenly hated the word June when he saw this news. Ji Yinbing was worried about him. Not long after Zhuang Long left the laboratory building, she also left.

When Ji Yinbing arrived, she saw Zhuang Long going crazy.

He actually got someone to customize a poster of the same height as Bruce and even got someone to place his poster under the corner of the wall. He was especially childish as he held a dart and shot it at Bruce. Ji Yinbing stood behind him and saw him throw a few darts, but only two or three darts hit Bruce’s face.

Ji Yinbing could not help but hold her forehead. She complained about Zhuang Long, “If you have the ability, go fight Bruce.”

Zhuang Long turned around and looked at her with a dark gaze. He was obviously unhappy.

Ji Yinbing got someone to remove the poster before saying to Zhuang Long, “There’s still some time before the wedding date. You still have a chance.”

“The chance is slim.” Zhuang Long knew very well that his situation was very dangerous. Xiao Li was not someone who would joke about her marriage. If she wanted to marry Bruce, she must have Bruce in her heart.

Zhuang Long leaned on the table. He blew the hair on his forehead and muttered like a dying patient, “I’m about to die. Really, I’m sick.”

Ji Yinbing played along. “What illness?”

“The condition is: Heartbreak. It hurts to think of someone.”

Ji Yinbing asked again, “Is this illness okay?”

Zhuang Long sighed. “There’s medicine that can cure my heartbreak.”

“What medicine?”

Zhuang Long said, “Ah Li.”

Ji Yinbing said, “I’ve never heard of it. How’s the medicine?”

“The medicinal effect is intense. The leaves are thin and green. The flowers are as beautiful as poppies, and their fragrance is fragrant. A kiss can cure my mood. If you find this medicine and bring it home to accompany me day and night. It can treat my heartbreak.”

“Ha…” Ji Yinbing sneered and exposed his trick. She said mercilessly,” This is a terminal illness. There is indeed a medicine called Ah Li in the world. However, there is only one such medicine in the world. Someone has already found her and brought her home. She has already become someone else’s straw to clutch at. ”

“Give up.”

Ji Yinbing told Zhuang Long in a joking tone that it was really impossible between him and Xiao Li.

She was already someone else’s fiancée.

Zhuang Long was indignant and could not help but run to find Xiao Li. He went straight to Xiao Li’s company. The front desk stopped him and told him that Xiao Li was not around and had left with Bruce. When Zhuang Long heard this news, he was stunned for a moment and his chest felt stuffy.

He called Zhuang Qilin and wanted to get Xiao Li’s whereabouts from him.

Zhuang Qilin did not hide it from him. He said, “I heard Mom and Bruce talking on the phone this morning. They seem to be going to pick up the customized wedding dress today.”
