The next day was the day of her professional class. Ji Xia drove to the school early in the morning but unexpectedly saw a familiar car downstairs in the art building.

Ji Yu just got out the car and was about to walk into the art building. When he saw Ji Xia getting out of the car, she was stunned for a moment, and then took off the sunglasses on her face and walked over.

"Xia Xia, are you here for class?"

"Yeah." Ji Xia nodded: "What brings Sister Ji Yu here?"

"Oh, me..." Ji Yu didn't intend to tell Ji Xia the reason for coming. She simply said: "By the way, Xia Xia, I actually wanted to tell you something yesterday but Fu Hengzhi pulled you too tightly and I couldn't find a chance."

"What is it?" After saying goodbye to Butler Liu, she followed Ji Yu to her red sports car, "Sister Ji Yu, please just tell me."

"Actually, it's nothing, I saw that you and Fu Hengzhi were quite affectionate yesterday. I just want to remind you not to take it all too seriously."

Ji Xia was stunned and before she could speak, she heard Ji Yu continue: "Do you know why Fu Hengzhi was so anxious to marry you? You didn't think it was love at first sight, right?"

"...I didn't think so"

No matter what Fu Hengzhi does, he must have his own reasons for what he does. Ji Xia knows this but she hasn't thought about it.

"That's good, in fact, the reason why he married you is quite simple." Ji Yu said: "The Fu family has a long standing rule that when there are more than one heir, the first one to marry will get the shares and management rights passed down from the head of the family. His younger brother will turn 20 this year, so of course he is anxious."

Before Ji Yu could finish her words, her sympathetic eyes fell on Ji Xia's face in advance.

"And he chose our Ji family just to get what he wanted. He needs a weak and easy to control so that he can get rid of the family without any trouble after completely grasping the Fu family."

The word 'get rid of' was emphasised by Ji Yu especially as if to reveal her already predetermined doomed fate to her, but in fact Ji Xia also had made such mental preparations.

She felt that Fu Hengzhi had a reason that was inconvenient to tell her why he married her but she had no other choice at that time anyway.

But even though she was already mentally prepared, Ji Xia's throat was still choked at this moment, as if she accidentally swallowed a cold blade and the blood vessels in her chest were sharply cut open and the hot blood and the ice-cold blades were mixed together and made her chest numb with pain.

"What are you doing here?"

A familiar male voice came from behind her. Before Ji Xia could turn around, she saw the expression on Ji Yu's face brighten up: "Lin Xiu!"

She immediately stepped forward: "I'm here to see my sister, you said that you would come back to China to be a university teacher but you happen to be in the same school as my sister."

Ji Xia turned around and looked up at Lin Xiu's indifferent pair of cat's eyes and said, "Hello, Mr. Lin."

"I had something to do yesterday and left first. I didn't wait for you to finish the dance. I'm sorry." He unloaded the drawing board from his back and handed it to Ji Xia: "The painting is rather sloppy but it's still complete."

She took the drawing paper and glanced at it. The lines were indeed a bit sloppy as Lin Xiu said, but the figure of the girl in the painting had already appeared on the paper. The dance movement that made Ji Xia appear in his mind at that moment was not a solid freeze but a coherent and dynamic movement which makes people easily think of the girl's light and soft movements outside the picture.

"Hey, isn't this Xia Xia?" Ji Yu's eyes immediately followed and when she caught a glimpse of the girl in the painting, he looked at Lin Xiu jokingly: "What's going on? Didn't you come to just report to school yesterday?"

"I met her when I was sketching in Kamakura." Lin Xiu explained lightly then looked at Ji Xia: "If you like it, I will send it to you, if you are okay with it, you can still reconsider being my model ."

This painting is equivalent to his letter of recommendation.

Ji Xia felt that Lin Xiu was really sincere in reaching this point. She nodded: "But it may be after the final exam, is that okay?"

"Yes, you can contact me then." Lin Xiu said, " I already gave my phone number to your boyfriend last time."

"That's not Xia Xia's boyfriend, it's her husband, isn't it?" Ji Yu put her arms around Ji Xia's shoulder and smiled at Lin Xiu, "Okay, let's finish the side affairs, do you have any classes later, how about we go for a ride."

"Then I'll go to class first, Mr. Lin, goodbye Sister Ji Yu." Ji Xia put the drawing paper in her bag and and went to the art building.

She spent all her morning classes absent-mindedly.

Although she told herself many times not to think about it, she couldn't help but think of Ji Yu's words and she couldn't help but get distracted.

She didn't care about the purpose of Fu Hengzhi and her marriage and she knew that she was not qualified to care about Fu Hengzhi's future plans. She was not completely unprepared, after all, the stakes between business marriages always made people think deeply.

It's just that she can't understand why her heart still hurts so badly even though she was mentally prepared, so much that she can't breathe even at the thought of a peaceful divorce from Fu Hengzhi in the future.
