"It's alright, goodbye."

Wen He smiled.

He was not in the wrong, he simply did not love her.

The door shut quietly. The smile on Wen He's face gradually disappeared, replaced by a wooden expression.

She lowered herself slowly into a crouch and buried her face between her knees. Warm tears escaped freely from her eyes and dripped off her cheeks.

"Huo Chen, why am I not the woman you love…"

Why?

He would never find out how touched she felt when he suggested that they become husband and wife for real.

However, love by way of compensation…

That was not something she wanted nor cared for.

She did not know if she would ever come to love someone else, but time… Time could heal all wounds.

…

(One week later.)

A second guest arrived at Wen He's apartment. It was Lu Bai.

"Wen He, open the door! If you have the guts to hide inside, you'd have the guts to open the door for me, right? What's with faking your death?"

Lu Bai kicked hard at the door. Wen He crawled out of bed sluggishly, having binge-watched some TV shows last night. She opened the door and looked at him sleepily.

"Why are you so loud, it's still early!"

Lu Bai pulled a face and sat down heavily on the sofa.

"What, are you going to pretend you don't know me?"

Wen He pursed her lips and sat down opposite him.

"You can keep the news of me being alive to yourself. There's no need to announce to the world that I narrowly escaped the fires of hell."

Huo Chen had uncovered her identity, so it was pointless for her to pretend any longer.

Lu Bai huffed in annoyance. Nevertheless, he was glad to see her garrulous as usual.

"Here, Huo Chen asked me to give you this."

He tossed a folder onto the table in front of her.

Wen He's fingers paused midway combing through her hair when she heard Huo Chen's name. She eyed the folder and asked with affected coolness, "What is that?"

"Your dream came true."

Wen He opened the folder and flipped through the documents inside. Then, she saw the four words in bold that surprised her — Decree of Special Pardon. Her eyes narrowed in ridicule.

She stacked the papers and put them back into the folder, all the while showing no signs of joy.

Lu Bai blinked a her. "Did the fires of hell fried your brain before you escaped?"

Wen He rolled her eyes at him and did not comment.

These papers were the reason she stuck by Huo Chen's side in the first place, forcing him to marry her in the process.

That Huo Chen had acquired these documents for her might be a sign that he wanted to sever all ties with her.

"What's wrong with you?" Lu Bai's eyes narrowed. "I feel that something's up with you and Huo Chen."

Wen He suppressed the urge to ask about Huo Chen. She stood up and stretched herself to hide the pain she was feeling inside. Then, she asked, "Come here again in a few days' time and help me give something to Huo Chen."

Lu Bai rolled his eyes.

"What is it between you two? Why must you use me as a middleman instead of doing it yourself?"

Was this their idea of mocking him for being single still?

"Just do it."

Wen He picked up the folder and went to the bedroom. "I'm still sleepy, so I'm going to bed now. Remember to lock the door behind you. Oh, when you drop by next time, please help me get some groceries so I don't have to go out."

"…"

Lu Bai's lips twitched. He was stunned and left the apartment without a word.

Wen He holed up in her apartment for two more days when she received a call from the Golden City's manager.

"My dear madam, if you don't come to work soon, all the young masters who took a liking to you are going to tear down my shop. I beg you, please come back!"
