Standing inside the phone booth, Shen Yue's chest heaved violently; she was still fuming.

She was still cursing Chen Dong for being shameless, telling him not to even think about making her his submissive.

"Chen Dong, you bastard! How could you make such a request? It's utterly shameless!"

Shen Yue cursed in a low voice, her voice trembling slightly with anger, her eyes filled with rage and disdain.

Her hands were clenched into fists, her knuckles turning white from the force.

Recalling Chen Dong's cold tone, she felt even more angry and helpless.

I once thought Chen Dong was someone I could use as a stepping stone. In those impoverished days, Chen Dong's appearance was like a ray of dawn in the darkness.

They spent their time together, humiliating Chen Dong and serving him like servants, yet they also developed some affection for each other.

But now, all of this has been shattered by Chen Dong's ruthlessness, and reality has made her see Chen Dong's true colors.

Chen Dong's attitude towards himself was almost the same as how he would treat a chicken bone.

It's tasteless to eat, but a pity to throw it away!

"Chen Dong...why did you do this to me?"

Shen Yue muttered to herself, her voice choked with sobs, her eyes filled with anger and pain.

I once hoped that the other person would change their mind and that I would continue to be their devoted admirer, but now all of that has turned into deep disappointment.

But then Shen Yue worried about what to do with Tao Hao.

"Tao Hao...how is he now? How could he do such a thing?"

Shen Yue thought to herself, her brows furrowed, her eyes filled with pain and confusion.

Her gaze wandered, as if searching for answers in her memories.

Looking back on all the moments I shared with Tao Hao in high school, those innocent smiles and those warm memories feel like they happened just yesterday.

Under the cherry blossom trees on campus, they strolled together, petals falling on her shoulders, which Tao Hao gently brushed away.

In the cafeteria, they argued heatedly over a difficult problem, their faces turning red, before finally exchanging a smile.

However, reality cruelly tore all of this apart, plunging her into endless pain.

"Tao Hao... what should I do?"

As Shen Yue thought to herself, her eyes reddened slightly, filled with pain and helplessness.

She paced back and forth in the phone booth, her inner turmoil making her restless.

After much hesitation, Shen Yue decided that no matter what, she had to go see Tao Hao.

"No matter what, I have to go see him and see what's wrong with him."

As Shen Yue thought to herself, her gaze gradually hardened, her eyes filled with determination.

She took a deep breath, as if gathering her courage.

So, Shen Yue decided to call Tao Hao's family.

But then she remembered that she didn't have a landline phone at home before. Although Tao Hao's family had one, she didn't know Tao Hao's landline phone number because of that.

"What should I do... how can I contact him?"

Shen Yue thought to herself, her eyes revealing anxiety, and her hand unconsciously tightened its grip on the bag strap.

Left with no other option, Shen Yue left the phone booth, stood on the street, and hailed a taxi.

The car slowly came to a stop, and she quickly opened the door and got in.

"Driver, to the police station."

Shen Yue spoke to the driver, her voice tinged with urgency.

Leaning slightly forward, as if that would make the car go faster.

The driver glanced at her in the rearview mirror, nodded, and started the car.

Throughout the journey, Shen Yue was filled with trepidation and unease.

His fingers tapped lightly on his knees, his eyes fixed on the window, yet he seemed to see nothing at all.

She didn't know what would happen after she met Tao Hao, nor did she know what to say.

"Tao Hao... what's wrong with you?"

Shen Yue thought to herself, her eyes filled with pain and confusion.

Tao Hao's face kept appearing in my mind, that once familiar boy, now so unfamiliar.

Upon arriving at the police station, Shen Yue got out of the car and hurried inside.

"Excuse me, has anyone here named Tao Hao been arrested?"

Shen Yue asked the police officer on duty, her voice tinged with urgency.

His eyes were fixed on the police officer, as if afraid of missing any answer.

The police officer looked up, glanced at her, nodded, and said, "Wait a moment, let me check."

He lowered his head and carefully flipped through the notebook.

He quickly replied, "Yes, a man named Tao Hao has been arrested. May I ask your relationship with him?"

Shen Yue hesitated for a few seconds, then bit her lip and answered, "You could say she was my ex-girlfriend?"

His voice was hesitant, as if he was also unsure about his identity.

The police officer nodded and asked curiously, "Do you want to visit him in prison? The suspect has not yet been tried in court."

"In theory, visits are still allowed at will, but according to regulations, there are a maximum of three visits per day, each lasting half an hour."

Shen Yue nodded quickly, a glimmer of hope in her eyes, and said, "I need it, thank you."

"Okay, I'll arrange it."

The police officer said, then picked up the phone and contacted the relevant personnel.

A moment later, the police officer said to Shen Yue, "It's all arranged. You can go visit her in prison now."

Shen Yue nodded and followed the police officer, her steps heavy as she entered the visiting room.

Tao Hao's eyes lit up instantly when he saw Shen Yue; he was very excited.

He never imagined that after the breakup, Yueyue would actually come to see him after learning the news.

"Yueyue, what brings you here?"

Tao Hao asked excitedly, his eyes filled with surprise and astonishment.

He gripped the iron fence tightly with both hands, leaning forward as if trying to get closer to Shen Yue.

Shen Yue's expression was very complicated. Looking at the person she once loved so deeply, who was now in such a situation, she felt a mix of emotions.

She looked at Tao Hao and questioned, "Tao Hao, how could you become like this? Why did you do such a thing?"

Shen Yue's questioning eyes were filled with pain and confusion. Yet, a glimmer of expectation remained in her gaze, hoping Tao Hao could give her a reasonable explanation.

Tao Hao was stunned for a moment, and his original excitement instantly turned into agitation.

"You're still saying that!"

"It's all because of you! If you hadn't broken up with me, I wouldn't be like this now!"

"You only sleep with Chen Dong, but you won't sleep with me, your boyfriend, even once. You're materialistic and vain, and it's all your fault!"

"If you hadn't treated me like this, how could I have been so resentful and angry that I impulsively went to kill that bastard Chen Dong!"

Tao Hao said excitedly, his face flushed red with anger, his eyes filled with rage and accusation.

The voice echoed in the visiting room, filled with resentment.

Looking at Tao Hao like this, Shen Yue couldn't believe it; she couldn't believe that Tao Hao had become like this.

"Tao Hao...how could you become like this? How could you say such a thing?"

Shen Yue asked in a low voice, her eyes filled with pain and disappointment.

The expectation that had been in his eyes vanished instantly, replaced by deep despair.

I had considered whether or not to grant Chen Dong's unreasonable request.
