After the divorce, Mr. Gu spent every day at the crematorium.

"Yaoyao, the bathroom is here."

Lu Jiajia pointed to the restroom sign not far away.

Shen Yao felt a little dizzy after drinking a few glasses of red wine.

She then temporarily left her seat.

Lu Jiajia, worried, followed after them.

"I'm fine, you go back first. Didn't you say your dad has arrived? Don't let him think you're not doing your job properly." Shen Yao forced a smile, telling Lu Jiajia not to worry about her.

Shen Yao knew that these kinds of parties among the upper class were actually large-scale social events.

Under various pretexts, what they're really talking about is profit.

Even though Lu Jiajia disliked Ye Ying'er, she had no choice but to force a smile and attend for the sake of the Lu family's interests.

The elders of the Lu and Ye families were certainly aware of the slight discord between the younger generation.

However, they all turned a blind eye, as long as the two families could continue to cooperate and achieve mutual benefit, these things were not a big deal.

“Okay, my dad wants me to go over and toast Uncle Ye and the others. Call me anytime if you need anything,” Lu Jiajia repeatedly reminded him.

"Okay, I'm not drunk. You should go find your dad." Shen Yao smiled and pushed Lu Jiajia out of the bathroom.

The phone in her pocket rang again. Seeing her father's relentless calls, Lu Jia made a gesture to run away.

Shen Yao waved for her to leave.

After vomiting in the bathroom for a while, Shen Yao walked to the sink outside to wash her hands, her face pale.

A clean square handkerchief came into her view.

"Why do you look so pale?" A gentle yet magnetic voice sounded from behind.

Shen Yao turned around and saw a handsome man with a buzz cut smiling at her.

"Who are you?" Shen Yao felt the man looked familiar, but she couldn't quite place him.

The man raised a thick eyebrow slightly and parted his thin lips, "Teacher Shen, really? It's only been a year since we last met, and you've already forgotten me?"

Memories flooded back like a torrent, and Shen Yao frowned as her memories of the man before her gradually became clearer.

On her first day at work, the man openly slept behind the meeting room; while eating in the cafeteria, he seemed reluctant to give up his seat for her; he even helped her take a stray dog ​​to an adoption center...

"Bo Yuxiu? Teacher Bo?" Shen Yao asked uncertainly.

Bo Yuxiu's brows furrowed so deeply they almost formed a mountain. "Teacher Shen, are you only now remembering who I am?"

Shen Yao smiled apologetically, "I've been too busy lately, and my memory isn't what it used to be."

Bo Yuxiu shrugged and smiled, "I know you're busy, I understand."

Shen Yao asked Bo Yuxiu why he came to the Hilton Hotel.

"It's a friend's birthday, so I came."

What's your friend's name?

"Um... Miss Ye, Ye Ying'er."

"What a coincidence!"

Bo Yuxiu feigned surprise and laughed, "Could it be that you're also here to celebrate a friend's birthday, and that friend just happens to be Ye Ying'er?"

"I'm not familiar with Miss Ye, but I'm good friends with Lu Jiajia. Lu Jiajia knows Ying'er."

"I understand." Bo Yuxiu nodded, looking as if he had just realized something.

The two walked out of the bathroom side by side. Under the light, Bo Yuxiu saw something on the woman's head.

"Teacher Shen, wait a minute, there looks like a spider on your head."

"Ah, a spider?" Shen Yao was so frightened that she dared not move. She looked helplessly at Bo Yuxiu, "Teacher Bo, can you help me get it down?"

Bo Yuxiu said with a smile, "That's what I was planning to do too."

Stepping closer, his long, slender, jade-like hand caught a small spider in the woman's dark hair.

Not far away, Gu Tianyou watched their intimate actions, his deep black eyes filled with an added layer of coldness.
