A fire breaks out at Repulse Bay Villa as Shi Jin burns her identification documents, sabotaging her planned marriage registration with Fu Xiuyuan. Deng Yufei, with burned hands from trying to intervene, tearfully apologizes and urges replacements while subtly shifting blame. Tension peaks as the calm, masked Shi Jin appears dressed to leave, and Deng accuses her of heading to see her fiancé Chu Ling.

Deng Yufei eagerly awaited Fu Xiuyuan's rage to intensify even further.

Just as expected, the instant Deng Yufei mentioned Chu Ling’s name, Fu Xiuyuan's face turned utterly frigid, while ominous clouds gathered above Repulse Bay Villa like a storm about to erupt.

Yet Shi Jin refrained from losing her cool. Her clear and pleasant voice echoed instead. “I know he truly loves me, so I’m not seeing Chu Ling today!”

“Huh?” Deng Yufei hadn't anticipated this at all.

“Didn’t you say you were seeing Chu Ling today?” Deng Yufei placed a hand over her mouth midway, pretending she had accidentally revealed her thoughts.

“Are you deaf or dumb? I said I won’t see him from now on! Don’t you understand?” Shi Jin replied with a smile, as if on the verge of adding more.

Deng Yufei stood there speechless. Clearly, Shi Jin had uttered those words just to ease Fu Xiuyuan's suspicions, hadn't she?

That was a clever move from her! But it was the extent of Shi Jin's tricks.

As soon as Chu Ling’s name escaped her lips, the atmosphere in the villa grew icier still.

Not a soul dared to utter a sound.

Deng Yufei deliberately revealed the wounds on her hands, hoping Fu Xiuyuan would notice them.

The imposing, distant man ignored her injuries completely. He simply turned away in disdain. “Get out. Call the doctor.”

The first command was aimed at the others. The latter went to Song Fan.

Deng Yufei felt a surge of joy and nearly expressed her gratitude when Fu Xiuyuan continued, “Get him to examine Shi Jin.”

Disappointment crashed over her, forcing her to exit alongside the rest.

Song Fan inwardly sighed. Even after Shi Jin's antics, Fu Xiuyuan put up with her. What made her think she could act so boldly?

Fu Xiuyuan pivoted to depart once his words ended.

“Fu Xiuyuan, are you ready?” The young woman's sweet tone drifted over.

Fu Xiuyuan paused mid-stride and glanced back. His eyes widened a bit, and half his fury melted away upon hearing her speak.

Confusion filled him as he couldn't grasp Shi Jin's intentions. Still, his fists balled up tightly while he braced for her outburst and flight.

Song Fan froze in astonishment. What scheme was Shi Jin plotting now? Couldn't she grant them a brief respite? Was she still planning to meet that ex-fiancé who had cast her aside? Didn't she notice Fu Xiuyuan's wrath?

“Fu Xiuyuan,” Shi Jin called softly once more.

Fu Xiuyuan met Shi Jin's gaze with bewilderment. Puzzlement swirled in his eyes.

Shi Jin no longer appeared to despise him, sparking a flicker in his gaze.

She appeared captivating. She seemed enchanting. And utterly endearing.

Though the traits clashed, she radiated stunning beauty. Yet he remained wary of her motives.

Song Fan blurted out instinctively, “Miss Shi, what do you mean?”

“I was asking if he’s ready to register our marriage.” Shi Jin descended the stairs, approached Fu Xiuyuan, and grasped his arm.

Fu Xiuyuan stiffened rigidly. Already towering, he now seemed even more imposing and frosty.

Shi Jin had always loathed him intensely, yet here she was, approaching him willingly.

Song Fan remained in utter shock. “R-register your marriage? Whose marriage?”

“Aren’t we getting married today?”

Song Fan suffered another jolt and pressed a hand to his chest. “Didn’t your ID and documents get burned?” How could marriage proceed without them?

Shi Jin pulled out her ID card from her bag, smiling brightly. “They didn’t get burned. Why would I burn my ID? Are you stupid or something?”

Song Fan was left completely speechless.
