"Alright." I nodded. "I'll go out and take care of it, you come down."
"First, bring me the property deed."
"The deed isn't with me," I shook my head. "It's with my mom. You come down, and I'll go get it for you first thing tomorrow morning, okay?"
"No way." Bao Lan shook her head. "I don't trust you."
"How about this," I thought for a moment. "I'll go out right now and take care of it. You wait for my news, alright?"
"Fine." Bao Lan nodded.
I turned and walked out, closing the door behind me. I wiped the sweat from my forehead and pulled out my phone to call the fire department, then called the person who could forge the property deed...
Half an hour later, I returned home. By then, the firefighters had already arrived.
I opened the door and saw Bao Lan still sitting on the windowsill, locked in a standoff with two firefighters.
"Bao Lan," I called out, "I'm back."
"Where's the deed?" she asked me.
"The deed is right here." I pulled out the fake property deed and waved it in my hand. "Look, Bao Lan."
"Give it to me." Bao Lan reached out her hand toward me.
"I can give it to you," I nodded, "but you need to come down first."
"I'm not coming down." Bao Lan glared at me. "Not unless you hand over the deed."
I frowned.
"Bao Lan, do you want the house deed just to confirm my love for you? Are you jumping down to test whether I would be heartbroken? But have you thought about it? If you jump, how will you enjoy my love for you?"
"Bao Lan, there’s no turning back in life." I glared at her. "If you jump, there will be nothing left."
"Bao Lan, come down." I reached out my hand. "I promise you, we will live well from now on."
"First, give me the house deed."
"Bao Lan..."
"Give it to me!"
"Alright." I nodded and tossed the house deed over.
Bao Lan grabbed the deed and looked down at it. In that moment, two firefighters reacted quickly, lunging forward to pin her down and shut the window...
I was completely lost.
At Ma Gui Fang's birthday party, I got thoroughly drunk. When the party ended, only Ma Gui Fang and I were left in the room.
"Wei Yiming, can't you be a little more ambitious?" Ma Gui Fang looked at me with a face full of dissatisfaction.
"I..." I lifted my head to look at Ma Gui Fang, but everything before me was blurry.
"Wei Yiming, you've had too much to drink." Ma Gui Fang helped me onto the sofa.
"Sit tight, I'll make you a cup of tea."
"Ma Gui Fang, you said..." I grabbed Ma Gui Fang's arm.
"Am I really that much of a jerk?"
"You know it yourself," Ma Gui Fang shot me a glance.
"Bao Lan is threatening to divorce me."
I let out a bitter laugh. "Wedding Night, she found out."
"Oh." Ma Gui Fang poured a cup of tea and handed it to me. "So what are you planning to do?"
"I don't know." I shook my head.
"Wei Yiming, if time could turn back, I would definitely have slept with you before you met Bao Lan."
Ma Gui Fang looked at me and suddenly said this.
"You..." I was taken aback and looked up at Ma Gui Fang.
Ma Gui Fang sat down beside me. "Wei Yiming, let's not beat around the bush. I know how you feel about me, and you understand how I feel about you, but..."
"Don't say 'but'." I waved my hand. "Manager Ma, it's getting late; I should go."
As I spoke, I forced myself to stand up.
"Wei Yiming, you..."
"Manager Ma, my attending your birthday party today already shows my stance."
I let out a bitter laugh. "But I can't let Baolan down."
"You..."
"Manager Ma, I'm leaving." I stumbled out of the room.
