Chapter 1 Betrayal

  I've been chosen!

  I received a red envelope with the admission letter, and my heart started racing. I'm just such a careless person, as long as there's something good happening, I'll feel especially happy.

  Ask me why I'm so happy? In fact, I participated in the image design of the game "Tamer's Journey" and was unexpectedly selected. Moreover, in addition to this, the notice also included two admission tickets for Fantasy Island.

  This is such a wonderful thing, I must let my boyfriend go to Fantasy Island with me and have a good romance. To be honest, after being in a relationship with him for over a year, it's really hard on him.

  I'm a woman who focuses on creation, so I always like to slow down for him, but I've never forgotten that he's my man.

  I'm 20 years old, named Yan Lirong, and I'm a student of T University's cosmetics department. My mother used to be a tailor, while my father is an agricultural merchant who got rich by planting mushrooms. After that, our family of four lived a wealthy and happy life. I have a younger brother named Yan Zirong, who is studying at C Middle School.

  I, with a head of hair that reaches my waist, like to style it in various ways according to my mood. Today, I'm feeling carefree, so I've let my shiny black wavy long hair flow over my shoulders, paired with a deep blue denim jacket and a bright red polka-dot skirt, along with high-top striped boots with buckles and a fishtail design.

  I came to my boyfriend's place with a relaxed and pleasant mood.

  Normally I would have called him before coming to find him, but today I was too excited, so I didn't notify him and wanted to give him a surprise!

  Because I was his girlfriend, so I had the key to his house. I opened the door effortlessly and took a few steps in, only to find messy shoes and clothes scattered all over the floor.

  A woman's high heels, a man's sneakers, and a red dress... The further down I go, the heavier my mood becomes. There's even a woman's brassiere!

  My heart had been in a flurry for a long time, but I clearly saw what was on the ground. Trying to keep calm, but somehow, I just couldn't calm down.

  Although I have always paid very little for this feeling, because I really regarded him as a lifelong companion, I had more expectations of him than others. However, he got into bed with another woman!

  If I'm not mistaken, they should be in the room being intimate, so I went to the bathroom downstairs, filled a basin with water, and then quietly went upstairs.

  Why am I so calm? In fact, I've long lost my calmness and just want to deal with them properly and scold him severely to vent my anger!

  I didn't make a sound but knocked three times on the door.

  This is my usual way of knocking on the door, I thought he should have guessed it was me. He actually had the nerve to steal a peek, and he should have been aware that he would be discovered by his original partner!

  Sure, here is the translation:

  As expected, after a short while, the door opened.

  I immediately picked up the water basin next to me and splashed it fiercely. As a result, Zhan Zhonglan only wore a bath towel on stage, and as a result, his whole body was soaked through. His originally wheat-colored skin was dripping with water droplets, and the smile on his face froze instantly, asking me in confusion: "Rongrong, what are you doing?"

  When Zhan Zhonglan asked me this way, I felt annoyed and pointed at him with my index finger, saying angrily: "What am I doing?"

  I sneaked into the room, only to find it empty, but the messy bed sheets already hinted at the passionate scene that had just unfolded in this space.

  "Quickly, where did you hide that fox spirit?" I no longer cared about my image, and I fiercely shouted at Zhan Zhonglan again. My originally clear eyes were now filled with angry bloodshot veins.

  "Rong Rong, don't be angry, it was just a misunderstanding. My friend came over to stay overnight yesterday, so..." Zhan Zhonglan grabbed my stiff hands, which were tense with anger, and began to explain nervously.

  "You still want to cheat me?" I raised my voice, because although I'm not very good at remembering things, I clearly recognized the plaid shirt on the floor as the anniversary gift I gave him not long ago. He's really despicable, wearing the clothes I gave him and fooling around with another woman!

  Now, still want to push it as his friend's fault? It's really too hypocritical!

  Zhan Zhonglan, under my piercing gaze, involuntarily shook his big hand and let go of mine, averted his eyes, and began to pretend to be calm again, saying: "I really didn't deceive you, Rongrong."

  Acting so flustered, and yet expecting me to believe nothing's wrong.

  I was too lazy to bother with him, so I scanned the surroundings and finally fixed my gaze on his wardrobe. Given its size, it's highly likely that someone is hiding inside.

  Zhan Zhonglan still pretended to be calm and composed, but when he arrived in front of me, he grabbed my arm frantically and said: "Rongrong, I really didn't hide anyone."

  "Get out of my way!" I pushed Zhan Zhonglan away and quickly walked to the closet, pulling it open with a sudden force.

  Before I saw the scene inside, I first smelled a pungent fragrance. Then, my eyebrows furrowed and my nose tightened reflexively. But when I saw that seductive face and her naked figure, I couldn't help but curse her: "You shameless woman, you can't even bother to cover yourself with a cloth when hiding!"

  When I saw her face clearly, I found that this revealing woman was still my good friend Xu Yuanyuan.

  "Lanlan, he actually dares to scold me for being shameless." Xuyuan Yuan complained like a wronged woman, emitting a sharp tone like killing a chicken.

  It turns out that the world of relationships is like a battlefield. The three-year friendship between her and me suddenly showed signs of cracking.

  I couldn't help but feel that my eardrums were about to be stimulated away, how could this woman's voice be so unpleasant? So, I prepared to pull the closet door shut again.

  "Rong Rong, stop being reckless." Zhan Zhonglan put one hand on my shoulder, pleading with me to calm down.

  "Tell me not to be reckless? Before you tell me not to be reckless, have you ever thought about what you were doing before?" I let out a loud roar, frantically poking his chest, completely disregarding my ladylike image. The man is gone, what's the point of pretending to be a lady anymore!

  "What am I doing?" Zhan Zhonglan heard my words, not angry but smiling, then he pointed at Xu Yuanyuan in front of me and said with a bad tone: "I'm a man, I need to vent my personal needs, you can't satisfy me, naturally...".

  "Slap!" I slapped him again, my palm stinging his face. "If you're just a rooster who only knows how to flirt, then this vixen is indeed suitable for you! You two are nothing but beasts!"

  "How can you speak so harshly..." Zhan Zhonglan also said with a furious face.

  "That's right, this kind of woman is better off dumping early and being carefree." Xǔ Yuányuán chimed in.

  Ignoring them, I took out the two admission tickets to Fantasy Island, and as memories of the past flooded my mind, my gaze softened, and I said in a low voice: "Lan, do you know? Originally, I had planned to take a romantic trip with you."

  Zhan Zhonglan looked at this hard-to-come-by Dream Island admission ticket, and his eyes actually flickered for a moment.

  But I suddenly turned sharp, my eyes gleaming with a fierce light, and glared at him fiercely, saying: "But you're not worthy!"

  I tore open one of the Fantasy Island tickets in front of him.

  How easy it is to say goodbye, how decisive it is to leave, but when I left, he didn't come after me at all, and instead was coaxing another woman.

  More than a year of love is gone. Fortunately, my design was selected, and who knows, the dd company that developed "Taming Journey" might look for me again to design game characters!

  Love is gone, I still have a career, can only comfort myself like this, but the heart-wrenching tears, still can't help but flow down.
