I returned to the Dance Troupe and found Dong Hua moving things around. 0
 
I hurried over and asked, "What happened?" 0
 
She smiled lightly, "It's nothing, just that the investor pulled out." 0
 
Her smile was a bit awkward, but I thought she looked quite composed. 0
 
"I knew this day would come," she said. "I just didn't expect him to be the first one to withdraw." 0
 
She looked at me with a hint of depth in her gaze. 0
 
I quickly averted my eyes. 0
 
"Fangfang, how can art rely on others?" 0
 
I shook my head, "I don't know either." 0
 
"Then let's start our own venture together," she said as she walked over and hugged me tightly. "From scratch." 0
 
"Okay." 0
 
So we started from nothing, beginning with a small dance studio. 0
 
Three years later— 0
 
Our Dance Troupe's independently created dance piece "Rebirth" won two mainstream awards. 0
 
On the day we won, Cheng Duo and the others hugged me, crying and laughing. 0
 
Dong Hua and I couldn't help but shed tears of joy as well. 0
 
I finally did it. 0
 
Dong Hua was right; the heart is not made of iron and stone; it always has its soft spots. 0
 
The Dance Troupe felt like my own child; watching it grow little by little was an indescribable feeling. 0
 
As I embraced Dong Hua, I felt grateful to have her by my side in that moment. 0
 
That year, our Dance Troupe received new investment, expanded its scale, and moved to a larger space. 0
 
I received a message from Cui Xiangdong. 0
 
"Congratulations." 0
 
 
Although I had blocked him, he still persistently sent me messages. I no longer paid attention to him, deleted the messages, and continued to stay busy. 0
 
In the evening, the Dance Troupe held a celebration party, and everyone was very happy. Both Dong Hua and I were drunk. When we returned to the hotel, I was supported by Cheng Duo. He looked at me with bright eyes. 0
 
"Fangfang, you’re drunk," he said. 0
 
Riding on the buzz from the alcohol, I raised my hand to touch his face. "Cheng Duo, you’re really good-looking." 0
 
His face turned red, and just as he was about to say something, a voice suddenly came from behind us. "What are you two doing?" 0
 
Cheng Duo jumped in surprise and quickly turned around. Cui Xiangdong grabbed Cheng Duo by the collar. "You little brat, dare to touch my woman?" 0
 
I stumbled over and pushed his hand away. "Cui Xiangdong, what are you doing?" 0
 
He glared at me. "Yang Fangfang, are you really that reckless?" 0
 
I smiled lightly. "We’re already divorced, Mr. Cui. What right do you have to control me now?" 0
 
"You..." He stared at me. "Come with me." 0
 
I shook him off. "I’m not going." 0
 
He glanced at Cheng Duo and suddenly pulled me into his arms. "Fangfang, I was wrong. Please give me another chance." 0
 
I looked up and saw tears glistening in his eyes. I pushed him away and smiled lightly. "Cui Xiangdong, you should say that to Ma Tingting." 0
 
"Fangfang, I really know I was wrong. I know you are the best." 0
 
"After our divorce, I realized I can’t live without you. Fangfang, after you left, that home felt so cold; I really can’t stand it without you." 0
 
I shook my head. "It’s too late, Cui Xiangdong; everything is too late." 0
 
He grabbed my hand. "No, it’s not too late, Fangfang; we still have a chance." 0
 
 
"There is no chance left." I looked at him, "Cui Xiangdong, you will never know what I have lost." 0
He frowned, "I know, I know I shouldn't have focused all my attention on Wenwen back then, but you also know it was the only thing Tingting left behind, so I had to take good care of it." 0
"No," I shook my head, "you don't understand, you know nothing." 0
"I know, I know everything." He looked at me, "I know you were struggling back then, but I couldn't help you with anything. I'm sorry, Fangfang, I'm really sorry." 0
I pushed him away and turned to leave, but he hugged me from behind. 0
