I smiled lightly and said, "Back then, I was young and naive. Now I've come to understand, Cui Xiangdong, let's end it here." 0
"No!" He shook his head. "Fangfang, you can't leave me. It was my fault, I was foolish, I didn't cherish you. Fangfang, I beg you, forgive me this once, just this once." 0
I shook my head. "It's impossible now, Cui Xiangdong. Just go, and don't come looking for me again." 0
He looked at me, tears streaming down his face. "Fangfang, can you really not forgive me?" 0
"I can't." 0
He nodded and slowly stood up. 0
In a single night, he seemed to age many years. 0
He glanced at me and smiled faintly. "Alright, Yang Fangfang, I wish you a smooth and brilliant life ahead." 0
I looked at him and smiled back. "Thank you, but my life won't need you anymore." 0
That night, Cui Xiangdong bought a ticket to go abroad overnight. 0
He said, "Fangfang, I'll give you time to calm down. When you're ready to forgive me, I'll come back to find you." 0
I smiled lightly. "Cui Xiangdong, I'm not that idle; you won't be coming back." 0
He looked at me and turned to leave. 0
I knew that in this lifetime, we would no longer have any connection. 0
Because my life had already set off on a new journey. 0
Cheng Duo lived next door to me. 0
When he came to find me, his face was filled with concern. 0
I smiled lightly and invited him inside. 0
"Cheng Duo, I have something to tell you." 0
I planned to clarify things with him. After all, I couldn't let him wait for me all this time without reason. 0
I brought him into the house and poured him a cup of tea. 0
"Cheng Duo, to be honest, I've been divorced, and I've also had a miscarriage." 0
He quickly shook his head. "I don't mind." 0
I smiled lightly. "But I do." 0
He paused for a moment and said, "Fangfang, I like you; I truly like you—not because of your dancing or your looks—just because I like you for who you are. Can you..." 0
 
 
I teased him, "What do you like about me?" 0
His face turned red, and after stammering for a while, he finally mustered the courage to say, "Fangfang, I just like you. Seven years ago, because of a dance you performed, I found the meaning of life. So, I inquired about you everywhere, learned your name, and found out where you worked. But before I could find you, you had already resigned." 0
"I thought I would never see you again in this lifetime, but unexpectedly, heaven showed mercy and brought you back to my side. Fangfang, I truly like you, to the point of being unable to extricate myself. I don't ask for you to accept me right away; I just hope you can give me a chance." 0
"Fangfang, is that okay?" 0
I looked into his eyes. 0
His eyes sparkled like stars in the sky. 0
I smiled and reached out to pat his face: "Young man, hasn't anyone told you that when confessing your feelings, you should kneel on one knee?" 0
He was taken aback for a moment but quickly reacted. 0
"Fangfang, did you agree to me?" 0
I smiled without answering. 0
He hugged me tightly: "Fangfang, I'm so happy! Really, I've never been this happy before." 0
I smiled again: "Then from now on, you should stay this happy." 0
He nodded vigorously: "Yes, I will." 0
Just like that, I accepted Cheng Duo's confession. 0
After our relationship was confirmed, he treated me even better. 0
Every day he would bring gifts and check on me. 0
When Dong Hua found out about my relationship with Cheng Duo, she patted my shoulder. 0
"Fangfang, it's great that you're with Cheng Duo, but don't forget your dreams." 0
I looked at her: "Of course I won't forget my dreams." 0
Later on, the business I started with Dong Hua grew bigger and bigger. 0
The Dance Troupe we founded has now become well-known both domestically and internationally. 0
We no longer performed on stage and focused on training newcomers instead. 0
After Cheng Duo fulfilled his dance dreams, he was called back by his father to inherit the family business. 0
As for Cheng Duo and me, we got married and had a son and a daughter. 0
Our son is named Yang Xi and our daughter is named Chen Wang. 0
Their names symbolize hope. 0
 
 
Aside from the congratulatory gift I sent four years ago during the wedding, I haven't had any contact with Cui Xiangdong since then. However, I have heard some news about him. It seems that his family's business has encountered problems; a traitor within the company stole core information. The beneficiary of this theft is Ma Tingting. 0
 
The next time I saw Ma Tingting was at a banquet. She was wearing a stunning red evening gown, holding a glass of red wine, and smiling brightly. 0
 
"Yang Fangfang, long time no see," she said. 0
 
I looked at her and replied, "Miss Ma, you have quite the skill." 0
 
She chuckled, "Yang Fangfang, I knew I wasn't wrong about you; you're a smart person." 0
 
"I just don't care whether it's fair or not; I only care about the outcome." 0
 
"History always belongs to the victors." 0
 
I looked at her and smiled, "Is that so? But what use is something that doesn't belong to me?" 0
 
"It would only bring more trouble." 0
 
She gazed at me and asked, "Don't you hate me? If it weren't for me, you might still be Mrs. Cui." 0
 
I shook my head, "No hate." 0
 
"My life was stagnant for a while because of you all, but now I've found my own path again. My life will no longer pause because of you." 0
 
She looked at me, and there seemed to be a hint of envy in her eyes. "Yang Fangfang, sometimes I really envy you." 0
 
"No, you don't envy me; you just didn't get what you wanted, which is why you say that." 0
 
"Miss Ma, I hope your future path becomes broader and broader." 0
 
With that, I turned and walked away. 0
 
As for Cui Xiangdong and that dog Wenwen, looking back now, it all seems like a joke. But because of that joke, I met my True Love and achieved what I have today. 0
 
Now, I have Cheng Duo, children, and my own dance. I am very satisfied. 0
