That afternoon, Lao Hu came looking for her. Shu Yan smacked herself on her forehead. She had forgotten to let Lao Hu know that she had already found a place to stay. 

“I am so sorry. I have been so busy the last few days that I had completely forgotten. The boss at the motel that I was staying at is very nice and is willing to let me rent his place for a few months. I have already moved to their place, so I am not looking for a rental anymore.”

“We should help each other out.” Shu Yan smiled politely and didn’t take her seriously. She didn’t know the first thing about Hu Ruixue’s family, but she trusted that they were powerful. Any help from them would be more valuable than her hard work for years and perhaps even dozens of years.

Some people were just born with more than others. Shu Yan had already come to terms with that.

“I apologize. I didn’t mean to look into you. I just didn’t want to give up. After all… I was hoping that it wasn’t true.” The woman did not try to hide her bitter smile in front of Shu Yan. “Why do you think men are like that? Did I not treat him nice enough?”

“That’s because he doesn’t love you. He took everything you’ve done for him for granted,” Shu Yan replied.

“Designer Chen is here to deliver the lights?” She had shown him the blueprint of the remodeling of her place. She hadn’t expected him to be enthusiastic about it. He made a special trip to her place, made custom designed lightings for her place, and helped her place the order for her custom lightings and furniture to be made.
