The next day, Liang Che deliberately cleared his schedule and bought tickets for the concert to accompany me.

To match the sapphire necklace he gave me yesterday, I spent quite some time selecting clothes.

He leaned against the door frame of the wardrobe, his gaze deep and focused.

"I regret it. You look so beautiful, I don't want to take you out and let others see."

Inappropriately, I thought of the woman he hid in the villa.

Is it also because he didn't want others to see her?

I pursed my lips and didn't respond.

He was about to come in when the phone suddenly rang.

After seeing the caller ID, his brows slightly furrowed imperceptibly, and he instinctively avoided me to answer the call.

I grabbed his arm.

Looking directly into his eyes, I said, "Don't go, I want to keep looking at you."

He fell silent for a moment and answered the call in front of me.

I couldn't quite hear what was being said inside, but I vaguely caught words like "run," "jump from the third floor," "injured," and so on.

Liang Che's expression visibly showed some nervousness and concern.

"I'll go over now."

He hung up the phone, his gaze filled with intense remorse.

"I'm sorry, Junjun. Something came up at the company, I need to handle it."

"What kind of big issue requires someone of CEO level like you to handle it?" I stared directly into his eyes, tightly gripping the sleeve of his suit.

He paused for a moment, seemingly surprised that I would ask.

After all, the usual me would probably urge him to attend to company matters at this moment, understanding and considerate as always.

"Just a personnel dispute. I'll go and come back. Be good and wait for me at home."

He brushed away my hand and turned to leave.

I suddenly raised my voice, "Liang Che."

"Let's break up."

His footsteps abruptly halted, and he turned back in disbelief.

"Zhou Jun?"

"You want to break up with me?!"

"Yes." I looked at him and said, word by word, "I was planning to wait until after the concert to say it, but it seems I don't have to wait anymore."

"Liang Che, we're done."
