"We're just making a scene at the front door; she doesn't dare to come out."
An Hui asked, "What should we do then?"
Zhao Ming chuckled, "I have a plan, but I don't know if you'll agree."
An Hui shot him a glance, "Just spit it out."
Rubbing his hands together, Zhao Ming said, " Fu Yue's place is a spacious flat, over two hundred square meters. I remember she has a floor-to-ceiling window. If we climb in through that window, we'll land right in the living room."
An Hui hesitated, "Isn't that a bit much? We're friends with Fu Yue. Plus, stealing is illegal."
Zhao Ming glared at her, "What are you talking about? We're not stealing anything. We're just borrowing."
"Aren't you the one who said Fu Yue is going abroad for vacation? We can help her keep an eye on her place without charging her."
"Then we can put on a little show at her house and share some of the earnings with her."
"She'll be grateful to us!"
An Hui rolled her eyes at Zhao Ming, "All you think about is money. You should figure out how to get in first."
I listened to their conversation, feeling disgusted by their shamelessness. So this was how they had entered my home in the past life. I had wondered how they managed to come in when I clearly locked the door. They had climbed in through the floor-to-ceiling window.
I let out a cold laugh and decided to take the initiative by calling An Hui. It rang several times before she picked up.
" Fu Yue, where are you?" An Hui asked quietly.
I smiled and said, "We're about to turn off our phones on the plane. Is there something you need?"
An Hui gasped, "Where are you going?"
I continued to fabricate, "Last time I went to Europe, I felt like I didn't have enough fun. This time I'm going on a group tour for a month."
"What's wrong? Do you need something?"
An Hui hesitated and said, " Fu Yue, Zhao Ming and I can't stay at the hospital or home anymore. Can we hide out at your place for a while?"
I retorted, "Haven't you both been posting videos online? What are you afraid of?"
An Hui was left speechless.
I scoffed, " An Hui, I've helped you so much, yet not only do you not thank me, but you treat me like an enemy."
"Just stay with Zhao Ming," I added.
"Don't come and ruin my life."
I hung up the phone.
Through the door, I could hear An Hui relaying my words to Zhao Ming.
Zhao Ming cursed, "What's so great about her? She's just a doctor."
"When we make a lot of money, I'll have her lick my shoes."
An Hui whispered, "But she's in Europe now. What should we do?"
Zhao Ming spat, "Consider it her good luck."
"Let's go home first."
After I went abroad, An Hui called me many times. I never answered. Eventually, she stopped calling altogether.
I guess he wants to wait until I return to the country to ask me for the password to my house. I chuckled lightly; I had sent my phone away before going abroad. When I return, I'll just say it was stolen overseas. I'm curious to see how he will handle that.
I spent a whole month traveling in Europe. From Denmark to Norway, from Finland to Sweden, and finally entering back home from Russia. I saw many beautiful sights, and my mindset broadened significantly. Being completely away from people like Zhao Ming and An Hui felt incredibly refreshing.
After returning home, I went back to work on schedule and headed straight home after hours, focusing on my academic research. One day, while shopping at the supermarket, I unexpectedly ran into Zhao Ming. He was accompanied by a young woman who was nothing like An Hui. An Hui was the type of gentle and demure girl, while this woman was bold and striking.
The two were wrapped around each other, completely oblivious to the gazes of others. I guessed this must be Zhao Ming's mistress. To my surprise, Zhao Ming was even speaking ill of An Hui in front of her.
