Fang Jiayin really does surprise her sometimes . She seemed delicate and demure on the outside, but she was actually tenacious and brave deep down . And she was decisive and unyielding as well .
She really excelled at everything .
No wonder Yan Rusheng had fallen in love with her and was devoted to her for the past three years .
Secretary Liu turned to leave and Fang Jiayin glanced at Xuxu and Yan Rusheng with an awkward expression . "Ah Sheng, Xuxu, I'm feeling unwell…"
Xuxu suddenly cut across her . "I'm a little thirsty . I'll go get a drink . "
She turned to leave promptly and walked towards the tables .
Yan Rusheng glared at her with resentment and anger as he prepared to chase after her .
"Ah Sheng . "

Fang Jiayin called him suddenly .
He halted his footsteps and turned around to look at her . He pressed his lips as he waited for her to speak .
"You shouldn't always be so fierce towards her . " Fang Jiayin furrowed her brows and said softly, "Be gentle towards a woman . Take a softer approach and perhaps you'll find that the problem can be easily solved . "
Her sparkling black eyes glinted clearly under the light . She appeared sincere and straightforward .
Yan Rusheng pressed his lips once more, as though he had given her an answer .
Then he spun around to look for Xuxu, but she had vanished out of sight .
He surveyed his surroundings and there was no sight of her anywhere .
He didn't see Jiang Zhuoheng as well and he began to feel moody . He strode across the hall towards the entrance .
And he bumped into Lu Yinan .

"Third Yan…"
Yan Rusheng stretched his hand towards him and said impatiently, "Give me a cigarette . "
"Oh . "
Lu Yinan noticed that Yan Rusheng was in a bad mood and he was wise enough not to say anything . He retrieved an exquisite cigarette case from his pocket and passed it to him .
Yan Rusheng opened the cigarette case and placed a stick in his mouth . He lighted it as he walked out .
After exiting the hall, the freezing wind blew towards him . He took a few puffs and was covered by wisps of smoke as he hastened his footsteps down the stairs .
This was one of the Lu family's mansions and they used it occasionally for parties or celebrations .
In the middle of the courtyard, there was a fake hill with a splendid and majestic fountain .
Yan Rusheng held his cigarette and stuffed his other hand in his pocket . The temperature outdoors had dropped beyond zero degrees but surprisingly, he didn't feel cold at all .
He stood beside the fake hill as he peered at the vast night sky . He was admiring the moon as he mocked himself silently .
"My heart is with the moon, but alas, the moon shines somewhere else instead . "
He had yearned to be her refuge and harbor but she doesn't even cherish him at all .
"I won't do that . "
"Hmph! You must think of your parents!"
Suddenly, he heard a woman and a man arguing behind the fake hill . Even though their voices were hushed, Yan Rusheng could still recognize their voices .
He was slightly startled and he took a detour towards the source of the commotion .
A short and plump man vanished around the other side of the hill .
A tall and slender woman stood there . Sensing his presence, the woman turned around and faced him .
When she saw that the intruder was Yan Rusheng, Fang Jiayin was startled and stared at him in shock . "Ah Sheng . "
After a while, she lowered her head nervously .
Yan Rusheng strode towards her as he gazed at Fang Jiayin, feeling suspicious . He questioned her, "What are you doing here with Liu Changjun?"
"No… It's nothing . " Fang Jiayin turned to look at her feet as she shook her head . She rubbed her eyes as she answered him .
She seemed rather aggrieved .
Yan Rusheng could tell that Fang Jiayin was troubled but he didn't press further .
He took another puff and turned to find a flat spot around the fake hill . He leaned lazily on it .
After taking a puff, he glanced at Fang Jiayin, "Wasn't life abroad good?"
