In the silence, a clear greeting rang out.

"Hello~" A soft and sweet greeting broke the silence of the stairwell.

"Hello!" came a gentle, low reply.

At this moment, at the entrance of the stairwell on the 4th floor of Building 1 in Anju Community, a man and a woman, one on the stairs and the other on the bottom, are standing facing each other.

The girl sat gracefully on the steps; the man, on the other hand, stood tall and relaxed by the window of the stairwell.

They are all residents of the 4th floor of this building.

The girl, named Dong Yizhi, lived in apartment 403 on the same floor, while the man lived in the adjacent apartment 404.

The reason why the two met here and greeted each other was due to a series of coincidences.

Dong Yizhi has been in Lancheng City for over a year, but he rarely meets his neighbor who lives so close to him.

Who could have predicted that we would meet again in such an awkward and embarrassing situation today!

But it's just that something unusual is happening inside the house right now—well, they're passionately kissing.

Dong Yizhi had just returned when she witnessed that embarrassing scene, and just as she turned around, she bumped into the husband of the other party involved.

In her anxiety, she pulled the man beside her here, as if trying to escape something.

However, this situation made both of them feel very awkward, and the atmosphere instantly became subtle.

In fact, Dong Yizhi pulled the man over purely out of instinct, and had absolutely no intention of covering up for her boyfriend.

After all, she herself was also a victim!

However, under the watchful eyes of her neighbors, she was still a little flustered and unsure of how to pose naturally. So, she could only steal glances at the man with her big, blinking eyes.

Dong Yizhi had done it more than a dozen times, and she felt a little uneasy, not knowing why.

Meanwhile, Shi Tingfeng, the man, leaned leisurely against the windowsill at the top of the stairs between the third and fourth floors, gazing up at his neighbor's girlfriend.

He'd met this girl many times; she was practically his type from head to toe. At first, he didn't know she was his neighbor Wu Mingzheng's girlfriend, but he found out later…

Looking at her now, her face was flushed with embarrassment, as if she had done something wrong, and she was also sneaking around, glancing at me every now and then.

Her already pretty face was now even more rosy, especially with the suspender dress she was wearing, which showed off her great figure. Her breasts were faintly visible, which was simply exciting.

If it weren't for Shi Tingfeng's dark complexion and the way the veins on his arms were bulging from the heat, Dong Yizhi would have thought he wanted to beat her up to vent his anger.

After all, it's really embarrassing when your wife cheats on you.

Shi Tingfeng looked at the girl in front of him. She was incredibly beautiful. He didn't want to embarrass her like that and was about to open his mouth to ease the atmosphere when the girl spoke first.

Seeing the man's face growing increasingly grim, and his mouth moving as if out of control, Dong Yizhi instinctively apologized, "I'm sorry!"

After saying that, she silently spat in her heart, wondering what she had done wrong. She was clearly a victim herself.

Zhizhi was wronged; how could she have known her boyfriend would be so bold?

She was supposed to go to work today, but there wasn't much to do at the factory, so she was thinking of coming home early to rest. But as soon as she got to the apartment she rented with her boyfriend, she saw through the slightly ajar door that her boyfriend and another woman were making out passionately in the entryway!

So, she's just as unlucky as the guy in front of her, being cheated on. The good thing is, she knows a tiny bit of the inside story, just a tiny bit, which is a little better than her completely clueless neighbor.

Thinking of this, Zhizhi was afraid that her neighbor might misunderstand, so she quickly said, "However, I haven't done anything wrong to you. I really didn't know what their relationship was before. If you want to get angry, don't take it out on me."

Dong Yizhi's voice was clear and melodious, with a hint of gentleness that softened Shi Tingfeng's heart, but this did not prevent Shi Tingfeng from noticing her guilty conscience.

"Tch~" Seeing her wary expression and her flustered attempt to distance herself, Shi Tingfeng was so angry he laughed.

He hasn't even said a word yet! How come in her eyes he's the one about to get angry?

"I haven't even said anything yet, and you're already rushing to explain. Do you really know something?"

Shi Tingfeng watched her with great interest, hoping she would say more so he could hear her voice more and satisfy his craving.

Dong Yizhi quickly shook her head, "I don't know, really."

She nodded vigorously, seemingly to confirm her point.

Fearing that he still didn't trust her, Dong Yizhi quickly added, "It's true, the man inside is my fiancé! We had planned to hold a wedding banquet in our hometown this year, and our parents have been visiting each other like relatives for a long time."

However, at this moment, Shi Tingfeng only grasped the key information such as "fiancé" and "getting married this year," completely ignoring the crucial word "originally."

Recalling the appalling scene he had just witnessed, Shi Tingfeng couldn't help but cautiously ask, "Now that things have come to this, are you still going to go home to get married this year?"

Dong Yizhi was stunned by his question. She had noticed it before, which was why she had postponed the wedding date again and again. Now, with the question from the man in front of her, her mind started to race.

Is it more worthwhile to choose marriage, or is it wiser to simply give up on this future marriage?

If you choose to get married, from now on, all the money your husband earns from his current job will belong to you.

But if you don't get married and rely solely on your meager monthly salary of just a few hundred yuan, how long would it take to save enough money to buy a house in the city? Buying a house requires a considerable sum of money.

After racking his brains for a long time, Dong Yizhi still couldn't come up with a clear and definite solution.

Finally, she shook her head helplessly and replied, "This question is too difficult. I don't know how to decide. I need to think about it some more."

Upon hearing this answer, Shi Tingfeng was greatly shocked.

He stared wide-eyed at the woman before him in disbelief, silently pondering:

Having already witnessed her boyfriend's betrayal and infidelity, why is she still hesitating? Does this woman love her boyfriend so deeply that she can tolerate something like this?

Unable to contain his doubts and dissatisfaction, he blurted out, "Just how much do you like him? Even knowing he did something so treacherous, you can remain indifferent and are even considering whether to continue marrying him?"

Dong Yizhi looked at him, puzzled. "He gave me money, what's so unbearable about that?" It's not because of love, what's the value of love?

"With money, you'll agree to anything?" Shi Tingfeng is rich, and he doesn't think anything can be solved with money.
