Outside the coffee shop, snowflakes were falling heavily.

Wen Qingruan stood in the empty square, watching large snowflakes fall softly to the ground and quickly cover everything.

She blinked slowly and walked towards the bus stop.

She told Wu Huilan that she would make Fu Yanci hate and despise her.

Wu Huilan asked her what to do.

Wen Qingruan looked up, and cold snowflakes fell on her face, trickling down her cheeks with a bitter taste.

She loved Fu Yanci, so naturally she knew how to hurt him, how to make him hate her to the core...

She's going to hurt him again...

Fu Group Headquarters.

Fu Yanci has just finished an international video conference.

Assistant Wang Rui received a message from the front desk and knocked on the door of the president's office.

Fu Yanci was sitting in his office chair, looking rather unwell.

Wang Rui took out the stomach medicine prescribed by the doctor, poured warm water, and placed it on his desk along with the medicine.

"Mr. Fu, you should really go to the hospital to get checked out. You can't keep taking painkillers all the time."

Fu Yanci waved his hand and ate the medicine on the table.

Seeing that Wang Rui hadn't left yet, he looked up.

"What's up?"

Wang Rui hesitated, considering how to begin.

He was transferred to headquarters as President Fu's assistant four years ago. He didn't know much about the past, but he did know that President Fu's ex-wife was someone who couldn't be mentioned.

but now……

He forced himself to speak.

"Mr. Fu, there is a Miss Wen downstairs who wants to see you."

Fu Yanci paused, holding the pen, and after a while, he resumed writing.

"Okay, tell her to come up."

Wen Qingruan got on the elevator and watched the numbers on the elevator panel rise little by little. Her heart gradually rose into her throat, and she almost choked on her breath.

With a "ding," the elevator doors opened.

Wen Qingruan looked at the luxurious and high-class office corridor in front of her, and hesitated to take a step.

"Miss Wen?"

Wang Rui stood at the elevator entrance, pressing the elevator door open/close button.

Wen Qingruan snapped out of her daze, gave a slight smile, said "thank you," and stepped out of the elevator.

Wang Rui, "President Fu is waiting for you in his office."

Wen Qingruan stood at the door of the president's office, her hands clenched tightly, with marks on the back of her hands, but she felt nothing at all.

The door to the CEO's office opened.

Wang Rui: "Mr. Fu, Miss Wen has arrived."

Wen Qingruan heard the man hum in response, but she couldn't discern any emotion in his voice.

"Ms. Wen, would you like coffee or tea?"

Wen Qingruan: "No need to thank me..."

"Prepare a cup of hot cocoa for her."

Fu Yanci gave the order without even looking up.

"Yes, Mr. Fu."

Wang Rui responded and walked towards the tea room.

The huge office was now empty except for the two of them.

Wen Qingruan looked down at her toes, not daring to lift her leg inside.

Hot cocoa...

He remembers everything.

She liked to drink hot cocoa in winter, but at that time she had to control her diet while in the ballet troupe and was only allowed to drink it once a month, so she was always especially happy when she drank it, and that's why she liked hot cocoa even more.

He still remembers all of this...

Fu Yanci is truly a very good person.

"What are you standing there for? Didn't you say you were looking for me?"

Fu Yanci put down his pen and looked at Wen Qingruan.

This office is very large, with huge floor-to-ceiling windows offering a wide view. The desk is located right by the window, and the space is clean and spacious.

Fu Yanci sat behind his desk, no more than five or six meters away from Wen Qingruan.

But Wen Qingruan knew that once she walked into this office and said those words to Fu Yanci, an entire universe would separate her from him.

They will never have that chance again.

Fu Yanci might even tell her to get out immediately.

But isn't that exactly the result she wanted...?

Wen Qingruan pinched her fingertips with one hand and finally walked into the office.

She slowly walked to the desk, looked up, and saw Fu Yanci, whose face was somewhat pale.

The words I had prepared were stuck in my throat, and I couldn't say them no matter what I did, but something seemed to be welling up in my eyes.

When Fu Yanci heard that Wen Qingruan had come to see him, he calmly and composedly instructed Wang Rui to bring someone in, but he never touched the document in his hand again.

In the few minutes it took to wait for Wen Qingruan to arrive, Fu Yanci realized that he had become unruly because of Wen Qingruan's arrival, and he severely criticized himself.

Even though that woman didn't care about him at all, he still couldn't let her go.

Fortunately, Fu Yanci quickly made peace with him.

Wen Qingruan came to see him, perhaps she had encountered some trouble.

Regardless, they were husband and wife after all, and they have a baby named Fu Bao.

Even if it's just out of consideration for past relationships, he would definitely lend a hand if Wen Qingruan asked.

At this moment, Fu Yanci looked at the woman standing in front of him and saw her reddened eyes and the tears rolling down her cheeks.

He panicked.

"What's wrong?"

Fu Yanci stood up, stepped forward, and raised his hand to wipe away her tears.

But before his hand could touch Wen Qingruan, it was dodged.

Wen Qingruan turned her face to the side, "I'm fine."

Her voice was still a little hoarse, and you could tell she was very sad.

Fu Yanci's outstretched hand was still hanging in mid-air. The slight dissatisfaction he felt because of Wen Qingruan's aloofness vanished when he heard her choked voice.

All that's left is heartache.

"Please sit down."

He led Wen Qingruan to sit down on the sofa.

He didn't rush to ask, but waited quietly for Wen Qingruan to speak.

He didn't know what trouble Wen Qingruan was in, but as long as she was still willing to talk to him, he would never stand idly by.

Fu Yanci's gentleness was exactly what Wen Qingruan had expected.

He was such a good person, even though he no longer had the feelings for her, even though she abandoned him and Fu Bao when the Fu family was going through its most difficult time, and even though she disappointed him time and time again.

He still wanted to see her.

Wen Qingruan, you will never meet a better man than Fu Yanci.

But it is precisely because Fu Yanci is so good that you should not be a burden to him.

You are not good enough for him...

Wen Qingruan breathed slowly, not daring to look up at Fu Yanci, not daring to face him.

"Fu Yanci, I... want to ask you for help."

"Okay, go ahead and say it."

Fu Yanci knew Wen Qingruan's personality; she wouldn't speak up easily.

He couldn't bear to see Wen Qingruan in a difficult position, nor did he want to put her in a difficult position.

Seeing that Wen Qingruan was hesitant to speak, Fu Yanci assumed that she was unwilling to talk because their relationship was no longer what it used to be.

"Even though we've broken up now, if you encounter any difficulties, I won't stand idly by for Fu Bao's sake. Tell me."

After saying this, Fu Yanci waited quietly for Wen Qingruan.

Wait until she's ready, wait until she speaks.

From the moment Wen Qingruan stepped into this office, she had countless urges to escape.

How could she say those words to Fu Yanci?

But she couldn't accept that her affairs would involve Fu Yanci.

She had to cut ties with Fu Yanci completely.

"Fu Yanci, I want to beg you, please don't tell Yun Shen about my past with you."

I'm getting married, and I don't want my future husband to misunderstand. I'm worried he'll mind.

Could you... pretend you've never known me...?
