I pushed Cui Xiangdong out of my mind. 0
 
In the following days, I noticed that the Dance Troupe was facing problems. The investors suddenly withdrew their funding, and Dong Hua was running around trying to secure funds. 0
 
I couldn't help but ask her, "What on earth is going on?" 0
 
She gave a bitter smile and said, "It's nothing, I offended the boss." 0
 
"Ah?" I was worried. "Are you going to be okay?" 0
 
"Of course," she smiled at me. "Don't worry." 0
 
A few days later, I vaguely heard colleagues from the Dance Troupe gossiping about me behind my back. 0
 
"It's all Yang Fangfang's fault. She got special treatment and became part of the Dance Troupe; otherwise, we wouldn't have so many issues." 0
 
"Yeah, it's embarrassing that our Dong Hua is begging everyone for help." 0
 
"This Yang Fangfang is a disaster; wasn't she making a scene with that Cui guy back then?" 0
 
"Exactly, anything related to her is bound to bring trouble." 0
 
I felt a chill run down my spine. Could it really be Cui Xiangdong's doing? 0
 
I went to find Dong Hua, and after a long silence, she admitted it. 0
 
"But why would he do this?" 0
 
"He said he wants you to come back." 0
 
I laughed, "Is he out of his mind?" 0
 
Dong Hua looked at me and said, "I initially wanted to fire you directly, but... I have my own principles and don't want to be controlled by anyone." 0
 
I fell silent. After a while, I took out a card. 0
 
"This contains all my savings; you take it." 0
 
Dong Hua raised an eyebrow, "What do you mean?" 0
 
 
"I invest," I smiled. "No matter if I can earn it back or not, I accept it, as long as you can keep me." 0
"Of course," Dong Hua smiled. "Fangfang, your investment will definitely pay off." 0
I nodded. "I believe you." 0
I arranged to meet Cui Xiangdong. 0
I didn't want to get entangled with him any longer; I wanted to resolve the issue once and for all. 0
Cui Xiangdong quickly answered the call. 0
I asked him to meet at a tea house. 0
I got straight to the point and asked him, "Cui Xiangdong, what do you really want?" 0
He sighed. "Fangfang, it's just a matter of a dog between us; why must you..." 0
"A matter of a dog? Is that really how you think?" 0
"Of course," he nodded. "If you like dancing, I can support you; why must you..." 0
I laughed. 0
I picked up my teacup and suddenly splashed it in his face. 0
Cui Xiangdong was stunned, then became angry. 0
"Fangfang, you..." 0
"Cui Xiangdong, in your eyes, I'm just a dancer performing for others, right?" 0
I laughed. 0
"I knew it; you never regarded me as your wife." 0
"There is no love between us, no respect, no care; not even a dog would you spare for me." 0
"I don't know what I've done wrong for you to treat me this way." 0
"Fangfang..." he lowered his head. "I'm sorry; I really don't know." 0
I shook my head. "No, you never truly understood what I really wanted." 0
"What do you want?" he said with a bitter smile. "Isn't it just dancing? I can support you; you can join any Dance Troupe, or I can even build one for you." 0
 
 
"No." I looked at him, "What I want is your true love, not charity, not pity, but the love of a man for a woman." 0
"Cui Xiangdong, you have never loved me." 0
He suddenly looked up, "Who says I haven't loved you?" 0
"You only love yourself." 0
"You..." He stood up, "How can you be so cheap? Do you want to flaunt your promiscuity?" 0
I raised my hand and slapped him hard. 0
He covered his face, looking at me in disbelief. 0
"You..." 0
I picked up my bag and walked out decisively. 0
"Cui Xiangdong, I don't need you anymore." 0
"Yang Fangfang!" He shouted behind me, "You will regret this!" 0
I turned to look at him, "I won't." 0
I walked out of the teahouse, feeling the bright sunshine. 0
Cui Xiangdong, goodbye. 0
