After finishing her surgery, Shen Yiqiu looked at the clock—it was already past one in the morning.
As she changed out of her surgical scrubs, she saw a message from her best friend.
She recognized every word on the screen, but when they were put together, she couldn’t make sense of them.
Blinking, Shen Yiqiu seriously wondered if there was something wrong with her eyes.
Otherwise, how could she be seeing a message from Xiao Yu saying she had broken up with Lu Jiayu!
Broken up!
How was that possible?
Although the two of them hadn’t loved each other passionately, their relationship had been steady and enduring.
How could they have broken up so suddenly and unexpectedly?
Shen Yiqiu still couldn’t believe it.
But she knew Sang Yu’s temperament—once she said something, she meant it.
There was no way she would joke about something as serious as a breakup.
The two had been together for five years and had argued before, but they had never broken up.
Every time they fought, they would make up within half a day.
This time, things had escalated so severely—something was definitely off!
“Lu Jiayu must have been caught up in a scandal!”
Shen Yiqiu logged onto Weibo and saw all the gossip news.
That scumbag—how could Ye Fei compare to Xiao Yu?
Xiao Yu wasn’t an unreasonable person; Lu Jiayu must have done something unforgivable.
Immediately, she posted a message in Lu Jiayu’s anti-fan group: “Isn’t Lu Jiayu a film emperor? How has he fallen so low that he has to rely on scandals for attention? Are actors these days all so shallow? Instead of focusing on their acting skills, they spend all their time on flashy nonsense.”
There were plenty of night owls surfing the internet, and someone replied to her right away.
【Group leader, group leader, didn’t you retire from hating Lu Jiayu?】
【Yeah, I thought you’d developed feelings for him after hating him for so long. Last time, you even posted on Weibo promoting his new drama.】
Shen Yiqiu typed rapidly on her phone screen, “I’m not a hater. I’m just pushing Lu Jiayu to improve. And no, I have no feelings for him.”
It was just a case of loving someone and extending that love to everything associated with them.
【Group leader, maybe you should take a look at our group name.】
Shen Yiqiu silently stared at the words “Lu Jiayu Lifetime Hater.”
Finally, she typed another line: “Breaking up the CP!”
There weren’t many people in this group, so it might not cause much of a stir. But as long as someone was criticizing Lu Jiayu, Shen Yiqiu was happy.
That scumbag—he already had Xiao Yu, yet he still stirred up scandals every now and then.
How pathetic!
It was already very late, and she wanted to call Sang Yu but was worried she might already be asleep.
Since she had the next day off, Shen Yiqiu decided to visit Sang Yu at Shengshi Haoting once it was light outside.
She was determined to find out whether Lu Jiayu had truly done something to hurt Xiao Yu.
Sang Yu hadn’t slept all night, standing by the floor-to-ceiling window watching the sunrise.
In the end, she made a decision—she was going to move.
First, to escape the nightmare of being killed in her past life.
Second, to avoid being disturbed by Lu Jiayu.
Although, given his abilities, he would eventually find her, moving to a place he had never set foot in would still be a good idea.
She wanted a fresh start.
She hadn’t lived in this apartment for long, and it was in a prime location with convenient transportation, so it would be easy to rent out.
Having made up her mind, Sang Yu felt a sense of relief.
Lu Jiayu was about to travel to another city to film a show. The thought of not seeing Sang Yu or hearing her voice for a month made him deeply uncomfortable.
So, on the way to the airport, he asked the driver to make a detour to Shengshi Haoting.
The door code had been changed, and he couldn’t get in.
When he tried calling Sang Yu, he realized he had been blocked.
He raised his hand, wanting to knock on the door.
He hesitated for a moment.
In the end, he withdrew his hand dejectedly.
Xiao Yu hadn’t removed him from the blacklist, which meant she was still angry.
At this point, it was better not to add fuel to the fire.
Giving her some time and space might be for the best.
Lu Jiayu stood outside Sang Yu’s apartment door for over ten minutes before finally leaving.
In his heart, he silently repeated: Xiao Yu, wait for me to come back.
