The atmosphere was so tense that day, but neither of them had said the word "breakup." It's too heavy to even mention. They thought they would calm down and think things through, but in the end, it still happened.

No crying, no tears, she can get through this.

It’s just a breakup.

Dating is like a pair of shoes that look beautiful at first glance. When you actually wear them, you realize they don’t fit well. If they don't fit, then it's time to find another pair. There are many other pairs on the shoe rack, all equally beautiful and not necessarily this one.

Warms looked up but couldn't stop the tears from falling.

Saying goodbye is so difficult, and it hurts so much.

The wedding reception that followed saw Warm drinking a lot of alcohol. Tang Mandong had always been able to drink heavily, while Cai Xiaojing was used to entertaining guests and could also hold her liquor well. When these three drank together, they were unrestrained.

Warm usually couldn’t handle much alcohol, but even with Cai Xiaojing’s training, she still couldn't keep up when she started competing with Tang Mandong in drinking games. She finished half a bottle of brandy and was already slightly drunk by the time Tang Shuwen and Chen Xier came to toast.

Chen Xier changed into a red cheongsam that accentuated her svelte figure perfectly, making her look extremely beautiful. Her hair was styled up with a jade hairpin as an accessory, giving her a classical appearance. She had played a role in a drama set during the Republic of China era where she wore this exact hairstyle and outfit. This time for the wedding ceremony, Chen Xier chose to wear that same costume from the drama, which added a touch of ancient charm, making her look poetic.

Tang Mandong and Cai Xiaojing complimented her appearance repeatedly. Chen Xier steadied Warm’s wobbly steps, asking, "Why did you drink so much"

"She wants to drink with me, but she doesn't know her own limits," Tang Mandong said. Cai Xiaojing raised a glass and smiled as she replied, "It's okay, I'll keep an eye on her."

The other young people at the table included Gu Yun, Lin Ning, Su Ran, and Lin Diyun among others. There was no shortage of drinking, with Su Ran saying to Chen Xieru, "Xieru, if he's not good to you, just come over to your brother; I'll take care of you."

"It’s too underhanded to poach someone on their wedding day. At the very least, let Shu Wen finish his honeymoon before talking about it, or else he won’t be able to enjoy his honeymoon worrying that his wife might be taken away," Lin Diyun said. Each person took turns drinking heavily, but Chen Xieru only sipped at her glass. Tang Shuwen was badly pressured by his friends and gritted his teeth as he declared, "Don't let me catch you later."

Everyone laughed, but it was Su Ran who eventually persuaded them to stop. Wenran continued drinking without eating much of the food. Lin Ning waved a hand in front of her face and exclaimed, "Oh my, is this your limit You've only had half a bottle of brandy diluted with water—how can you be falling down already Don’t tell me that you don't usually drink"

Wenran was half-drunk and half-awake. She glared at him but then poured herself more to drink; Cai Xiaojing hurriedly took the glass from her and spooned some soup for her instead. "If your drinking isn’t up to par, don’t try copying others—drink a little bit of soup to sober up," she advised.

Wenran followed Cai Xiaojing's advice obediently.

Su Ran looked around and asked, "Where’s Ye Er"

"I don't know. I haven’t seen him since the beginning." Tang Mandong replied as she scanned the room; the Ye family were all seated at one table with Mr and Mrs Lin Da, while Tang Si was also there. Ye Kelan and Ye Tianyu had their own friends and weren’t dining with their elders, so they sat separately. The main table didn't have Ye Feimo either.

Lin Diyun scanned the room as well but couldn’t find Ye Feimo anywhere—it was strange. Su Ran asked Wenran, "Where's your man"

Wenran belched and slowly sipped her soup before mumbling that she didn't know where he was. Lin Ning and others exchanged looks and wondered where Ye Feimo had gone off to—Su Ran got up to find him.

Su Ran found Ye Feimo by the small fountain in the park. He was sitting alone, looking at the sky with a blank expression. His perfect features were flawless, like an artwork, but his empty face made people feel somewhat melancholy.

"What are you doing here" Su Ran walked over and kicked his foot. It was such a good day, but he was here lamenting like this, which didn't fit the occasion at all. Su Ran thought of Nuannuan drinking to get warm; he was silent again, seemingly distant throughout the journey. He understood it all.

They had an argument.

Ye Feimo remained silent. Since childhood, Su Ran had a question: Ye San and Ye Ningyuan, as well as Cheng Anya, were humorous and talkative people, so why was Ye Feimo so strange His face never relaxed from childhood to adulthood, seeming like he'd never been happy.

Whenever he wasn't happy, he wouldn't speak a word; sometimes he could go an entire month without saying anything.

To call him autistic didn't seem right either.

No idea how this personality was formed.

"Feimo, at least respond. Nuannuan is drinking herself into a stupor inside, and you're as wooden outside. It's such a good day; what are the two of you doing Can't you do this tomorrow" Su Ran smiled. Ye Feimo lowered his head—Nuannuan was drunk

Her alcohol tolerance wasn't that great. Seeing he responded, Su Ran thanked heaven and earth: "Hey, my beloved woman marries my best friend, I don’t even get drunk from it. What’s going on with the two of you"

Ye Feimo gave a self-deprecating smile; it wasn't as if he wanted to cause trouble—Nuannuan wanted to break up with him. What could he do

Could he lock her in and stop her from leaving

He would like that very much, as long as he could bring himself to do it.

"We've broken up," Ye Feimo said, his voice flat and lifeless, like a stagnant pool without ripples or movement. The sunlight cast a layer of pale gold over him.

Su Ran couldn't help but want to laugh—how could this be possible Warmth was very stubborn and set in his ways; yet, looking at Ye Feimo's expression, it seemed he wasn’t lying. He paused for a moment before asking, "What happened Who initiated the breakup Just by your expression, I can tell it must have been Warmth. You’ve been dumped again"

At that moment, Su Ran felt an urge to clap in approval.

Ye Er [Second Ye], you've met your match today.

Hoho, Warmth has quite the nerve.

Ye Feimo’s sharp eyes narrowed fiercely, his gaze icy and cutting like a blade, as if he were trying to carve out a piece of flesh from Su Ran. Su Ran was always straightforward, and regarding Ye Feimo's matters, Su Ran and Tang Shuwen knew the most.

Back then, it was also Tang Shuwen and Su Ran who found out about his relationship with Han Bi first.

"Don’t glare at me. Come on, brother, tell me what happened. Maybe I can offer you some advice." Su Ran sat down beside him, stretching out a long arm to rest on Ye Feimo's shoulder. "I’m telling you, why are you so bad at dating How difficult is it to please women If she were like your mother, that would be understandable; but even someone as innocent as Warmth gives you trouble. That’s just too weak."

Ye Feimo gave a cold snort, his eyes darkening with anger, "Do you think Warmth is easier to handle than my mom You try it yourself. She's as stubborn as a mule and I have no idea what she’s thinking."

Su Ran grumbled, fifty steps shy of a hundred—how could he say that about someone else
