"Bang! Bang! Bang!"

A series of knocks sounded at the door. Wu Cheng was knocking loudly as if afraid the people inside couldn't hear.

I looked at Fang Tian and smiled, "See, Wu Cheng cares so much about you. He can't bear to be apart from you even for a moment. Don't throw a tantrum."

"Humph."

Fang Tian snorted coldly, crossing her arms in a haughty manner.

It was obvious my words hit the spot, but she still pretended to be indifferent.

"He's just too clingy. What's the rush in such a short time?"

I sneered inwardly.

Of course, he's in a rush.

If he loses such a rare sucker, who will work like an ox or a horse for him later? How could he not be in a rush?

"Nian Nian, don't mind him. Let him wait a bit more."

She said this as she pulled my hand to stop me from opening the door.

I dodged her hand and ran to open the door.

Are you kidding?

I don't want this troublesome person to stay here any longer.

When I opened the door, Wu Cheng's fierce face confronted me:

"Where's Fang Tian? Is she with you? I warn you, she's my wife. Mind your own business!"

He was tall and strong, exuding a daunting presence.

I took a step back, smiling calmly:

"Tian Tian is worried about having a deformed child with you. I'm trying to comfort her!"

Wu Cheng's expression softened a bit, "Good for you!"

He strode in, grabbed the posing Fang Tian from the sofa, and gruffed:

"Stop thinking about nonsense all day. My mom is your cousin, isn't that just perfect? Family ties will bring us closer. She'll definitely treat you well in the future!"

Fang Tian was small and thin, hanging in his hand like a chick.

She didn't find this treatment uncomfortable; instead, she looked at Wu Cheng with admiration and said sweetly, "Hmm."

She paused and then added:

"Actually, I'm not thinking too much. It's Nian Nian; she's worried about me."

She spoke ambiguously, revealing everything, yet nothing at the same time.

Upon hearing this, Wu Cheng glared at me and said harshly, "Are you jealous, can't stand to see Tian Tian happy? My mom is her cousin; the relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law will be harmonious, all family members. How could I harm her?"

"You're right."

I suppressed my anger and disgust, smiling in agreement.

"You will surely be happy until old age, and have a smooth wedding."

Wu Cheng showed a satisfied smile. Fang Tian nestled sweetly in his embrace.

I watched them smile, a faint curve on my lips.

Laugh all you want; you won't get a chance to laugh later!

They started acting lovey-dovey right in front of me.

Such eye-sore!

I tactfully tried to send them away, "I'm planning to go out for a meal."

Hearing my words, Fang Tian glanced at me reproachfully and naturally commanded:

"Why go out to eat? It's so unhealthy. Let's eat at home. I remember you bought beef and fish, cook them later for Brother Cheng. He likes them."

I could no longer maintain the fake smile on my face.

How did I fail to see Fang Tian being so shameless before?!

Probably because I had too high an opinion of her, always reminiscing about the little good she did in the past.

Being an orphan, I had always lacked love and never knew how to interact with people.

In college, sharing a dorm with Fang Tian, just because she showed me a little kindness, spoke a few words for me, and occasionally gave me things she didn't want, I treated her as a best friend wholeheartedly.

I didn't mind giving my all, completely.

She took all this for granted.

Looking at Fang Tian, my gaze turned colder. Before I could respond, she cradled Wu Cheng's face and said:

"Nian Nian's cooking skills are mediocre, but her beef and fish are quite good. Try her cooking later and see whose is better, hers or mine."

Wu Cheng pinched her face and kissed her loudly, saying affectionately: "Even without tasting, I know Tian Tian's cooking is better. Compared to you, Nian Nian is nothing."

Fang Tian playfully hit his chest and scolded coyly, "Don't say that. Nian Nian is my good friend."

She thought she was defending me well in front of Wu Cheng.

But actually, she didn't even realize how proud she was while saying these words, the disdain and contempt in her gaze towards me.

Watching her and Wu Cheng fooling around reminded me of the previous life.

Every time Wu Cheng tortured me, she'd be there watching with wide eyes like a ghost.

After he was done, she'd cling to him like an animal defending its territory, rubbing him as if trying to erase all traces of me from him.

That wasn't enough; she'd even force me to watch them doing intimate things.

Afterwards, she'd crawl to my side, changing tactics to curse me.

"It's all your fault! If it weren't for your curses, how would I have given birth to a deformed child! You owe me a baby!"

"You're so filthy! How disgusting! Stealing your sister's man!"

During these moments, Wu Cheng would be there watching.

With that disgusting, clingy, lecherous look, as if he'd look at me, Fang Tian would curse even more viciously.

I couldn't understand how someone so well-educated could speak such foul words, or why someone from such a good family background would cling so tightly to a rotten tree like Wu Cheng.

"Nian Nian?"

Seeing me not moving, Fang Tian impatiently urged me.

"Hurry up! I'm hungry!"

Coming back to my senses, I smiled apologetically, "I'm afraid I can't cook for you today. My company has a gathering, and all the leaders are going. It won't look good if a nobody like me doesn't go."

"What?"

Fang Tian's face immediately fell.

"Oh, your boss is really something. Nian Nian, you should quit and find another job soon. You don't even get any personal time."

"Hmm."

I nodded.

Indeed, it's time to change jobs.

Otherwise, if Fang Tian can't find me, she might just go to my company and cause trouble.

The colleagues and leaders at my company are all very nice, and I don't want to drag them into my mess.

Under the disgruntled gazes of Fang Tian and Wu Cheng, I firmly escorted them out.

Before leaving, Fang Tian repeatedly reminded me not to miss her engagement party with Wu Cheng.

Thinking of how I was ordered around without even a drink and subsequently kicked out at their engagement ceremony in the past life, I genuinely smiled at Fang Tian.

"Sure, I will definitely attend."

How else would I see their embarrassing moments?

After they left, I messaged Fang Tian's parents, informing them their daughter was getting engaged and even thoughtfully included the address of Wu Cheng's home.

Fang Tian, with her love-blindness, pretended to cut ties with Wu Cheng in the face of her parents' strong opposition, but secretly she was getting engaged to him!

In the past life, I ran around for her; in this life, I want her to have an unforgettable engagement!
