After signing, I moved out of the the Gu Family that night and rented an apartment in the coastal suburbs.
I had ten million in cash in my account, and every day I could just lie in bed watching the sunrise and sunset, living life as leisurely as I wanted.
I also adopted a little dog, named An An.
My previous dog was sent away because it was pregnant, but now that I have a fresh start, everything must return to its original state.
After all, a dog will never betray me or say those heartless words to me.
An An loves to go to the beach in the afternoon to splash in the water. If the tide is out, we can even go beachcombing together.
When sunset comes, I sit on the beach holding An An and watch the sun go down.
That is when I feel the happiest.
Several times, I couldn't help but think of Gu Anchen; he had proposed to me on his knees at sunset by the sea back then.
But when I recalled the moment he raised his hand to slap me, all that filled my heart and eyes was disgust.
"Wow! What a beautiful dog! Can I pet it?"
A childish exclamation pulled me out of my memories.
It was a little girl in an orange dress, her legs covered in sand, looking shyly at An An, utterly adorable.
"Of course! This is An An; she's very well-behaved and won't bite."
"Hello, An An! My name is Tian Tian. Nice to meet you! We have a boy in our kindergarten named An An too..."
"Tian Tian! How many times has your mother told you not to run off? Why don't you listen?"
The woman in front of me, wearing dark glasses, looked increasingly familiar.
Until she took off her glasses and shouted, "It's you! Long time no see!"
She was my best friend from graduate school, Tian Shanshan.
As soon as she graduated, she went abroad for work, and we lost contact. I never expected to run into her here.
I invited them to my apartment for a visit and even took out a freshly made cake for Tian Tian to enjoy.
Tian Tian held the cake and kept praising it, saying, "Auntie, this is the best cake I've ever had in my life!"
"Thank you, sweetheart. There's more after you finish this. If you like it, Auntie will make you more."
"Then next time I want to make it with Aunt Zhou. Mom says it's better to teach someone to fish than to give them fish."
Looking at this quirky little cutie in front of me, I genuinely liked her from the bottom of my heart.
I remembered back then when I placed the same cake in front of Gu An'an; he didn't even glance at it.
"Alright, you can take the puppy over there to play while Mommy talks with Aunt Zhou."
Watching Tian Tian walk away, Tian Shanshan finally dared to take off her glasses.
The wound at the corner of her eye was truly heartbreaking to see.
"I just got divorced last month; the other party was abusive and left with nothing. I'm here with my child for the summer."
"I also got divorced; the other party cheated on me, and I received ten million."
"Are you still doing research? Are you working on any projects?"
This question made me blush instantly.
After marrying Gu Anchen, I had been living a laid-back life thanks to the Fortunate Wife Buff, completely forgetting about research.
Now that I've ended up like this, perhaps it's a punishment from heaven.
"If you trust me and want to continue with research, why don't we collaborate?"
"Collaborate?"
"Take a look at this project; it has great potential. Several big companies are vying for it. If you don't mind my small company, you can invest in me, and we can take it together!"
I looked at the endless money in my bank account and agreed without thinking.
"But I must remind you, our biggest competitor right now is the Gu Group. We might not be able to outbid them."
Hearing that the competitor was Gu Anchen gave me some confidence.
"Don't worry; we are bound to win."
