Chu Ge wasn't a fool, he could naturally understand the deep meaning in Xia Feifei's eyes, but he just smiled and shook his head, "No, I have things to do later, maybe another day."

A trace of disappointment flashed in Xia Feifei's eyes, but she soon smiled with relief, "Then don't refuse next time, okay? Bye."

"Mm, bye."

Chu Ge watched as Xia Feifei pushed open the car door and walked into the apartment building, then he started the car, preparing to visit Qin Ruojing and hand over these resumes to report back.

However, neither Chu Ge nor Xia Feifei expected that at this very moment, in Xia Feifei's home, there was a man standing slightly sideways by the window, squinting as he looked down, first frowning slightly, then revealing a sinister cold smile.

Upon entering the apartment building, Xia Feifei watched through the half-transparent window on the landing as the Maserati disappeared from sight. Only then did she hum a little tune, stepping cheerfully forward with a radiant smile on her face, feeling so incredibly happy inside.

Just now, Chu Ge could obviously have gone upstairs with her and done something, yet he chose not to.

This obviously showed that Chu Ge was helping her unconditionally, not taking advantage of the situation even when there was such a good opportunity.

Meeting a man like Chu Ge in this vast sea of people, even if she couldn't have a closer relationship with him, was such a happy thing!

With a heart full of sweetness, Xia Feifei reached her door, took out her key, and opened the door.

However, just as she stepped into her home, she suddenly saw an unexpected guest sitting on the sofa in the living room, locking eyes with her.

Involuntarily, Xia Feifei's pupils suddenly shrank, and her eyebrows furrowed instantly, the sweet smile on her face disappeared completely, replaced by a thick sense of vigilance.

The man on the sofa was none other than Xia Feifei's former boyfriend, Yu Zekai.

His hair was longer than before, almost covering his face, with thick stubble around his chin and lips, looking both disheveled and gloomy, with a cigarette in his mouth, his eyes peering through the gaps in his hair with a faint, unreadable smile.

"What are you here for? Who let you in?"

Once intimate partners, now in Xia Feifei's eyes, he only made her feel creepy, she felt as though she barely recognized him anymore.

With Xia Feifei's vigilant gaze, Yu Zekai stubbed out the cigarette in the ashtray, exhaling the last puff of smoke, stood up from the sofa.

"You, don't come any closer." Xia Feifei grew more frightened, clinging to the door frame and instinctively stepping back a bit, ready to escape at any moment.

"Feifei, it's me, I'm Yu Zekai, don't you recognize me?" Yu Zekai stopped, his expression grim, and spoke in a hoarse voice.

Xia Feifei furrowed her brow slightly, "Yu Zekai, what exactly do you want, speak plainly."

"I came today to say goodbye, in a few hours, I'll be leaving this city, I just wanted to see you one last time, return your key, please don't look at me like that, okay?"

Yu Zekai looked at Xia Feifei, his eyes as gentle as when they first fell in love, his tone filled with reluctance and sadness.

Xia Feifei's expression froze, her heart softened a little, but she quickly remembered Yu Zekai's past misdeeds; it seemed that only when he came to ask for money did he speak to her so softly. If she guessed correctly, this time would be no exception.

She bit her lip, took out her wallet from her bag, pulled out a few red bills, and sighed.

"Yu Zekai, I don't have much money left, take this. I hope you can live well in another city, and please... don't come to me again."

Looking at the money, Yu Zekai stood still, giving a bitter smile and said, "Feifei, I know in your heart I'm already a hopeless person, I don't want to argue, but this time, I'm truly not here for money, I just wanted to see you, clean up the room for you, and cook you a meal with my own hands."

Xia Feifei was stunned, glancing around, realizing the house had indeed been cleaned, and the scent of food wafted from the kitchen.

Involuntarily, Xia Feifei's nose tinged slightly sour, countless times in the past she had vainly hoped that after a day's work, she'd come home to find the house spotlessly clean, with Yu Zekai prepared for her, so she could eat a hot meal the moment she stepped in.

Sadly, in all that time, not once had that happened. She never imagined that after they separated, having lost all hope for him, he would finally do such a thing.

To say she wasn't moved would be a lie, Xia Feifei pinched her slightly sour nose, and the vigilance in her eyes gradually dissipated.

"Feifei, please give me this chance, today I've made all the dishes you like. Maybe my cooking isn't the best, but I've truly put my heart into it. Let me make it up to you one last time before I leave, and from now on, let's part on good terms, okay?"

Yu Zekai looked at Xia Feifei with anticipation, his tone more sincere than ever before, slowly, step by step approaching Xia Feifei. When there was only one step left between them, he gently extended his hands and placed them on Xia Feifei's shoulders.

Xia Feifei's body trembled. Meeting those eyes full of affection and guilt, her tears finally flowed uncontrollably. She quickly looked away, biting her lips even tighter.

No matter what, they were once lovers. Many things are simply impossible to truly forget completely.

"I understand, you still won't forgive me, so... I'll go. Take care of yourself."

Yu Zekai sighed deeply, raised his hand to gently wipe the tears from Xia Feifei's face. When their eyes met again, he gave a gentle smile, patted Xia Feifei's shoulder, and began to walk towards the door.

As they brushed past each other, Xia Feifei's heart finally softened completely. She turned around and looked at Yu Zekai's back, softly saying, "Zekai, you... should eat before you go."

Yu Zekai paused mid-step, slowly turned around with a grateful, saddened smile, "Feifei, thank you, really... thank you."

Yet Xia Feifei didn't realize, before Yu Zekai turned around, a cold smirk had first appeared on his face.

After they closed the door, they came to the dining table. Yu Zekai thoughtfully pulled out a chair for Xia Feifei. After she sat down, he sat opposite her, raising a wine glass that had already been poured.

"Feifei, although at this moment, words seem quite pale, I truly want to say one thing: to our past, thank you for all the care you once gave me."

Xia Feifei sighed, looked at Yu Zekai for a few seconds, and also raised her wine glass.

The two glasses clinked lightly, and both of them drank up.

However, as Yu Zekai drank the wine, his gaze was fixed on Xia Feifei's lips, watching as she drank the contents clean. A sinister and satisfied curve appeared at the corner of his lips.

Even though Xia Feifei had just dined with Chu Ge, even if she were hungry now, she certainly had no appetite at this moment. After drinking the wine, she leaned back in the chair, listening to Yu Zekai speak and reminiscing about the past, unable to determine her current mood.

Time ticked by, and Xia Feifei gradually felt her body becoming a bit hot, as if everything before her eyes was becoming slightly blurry, and her mind was a little muddled.

She didn't think much of it, thinking it was just her thoughts being too chaotic causing this reaction. Rubbing her somewhat swollen forehead, she said to Yu Zekai, "Yu Zekai, I'm tired, you should go. I wish you a bright future."

"Go? Haha, no rush, the real show hasn't even started yet."

Seeing Xia Feifei's face begin to flush, her gaze turning slightly sluggish, Yu Zekai's affectionate demeanor suddenly changed. He licked his lips, a sinister grin spreading across his face.

Xia Feifei frowned, "Yu Zekai, what do you mean by this?"

Yu Zekai leisurely took a lighter from his pocket, lit a cigarette, and placed it in his mouth, propping his feet on the table, squinting his eyes.

"What do I mean? Haha... Xia Feifei, don't you feel your body starting to heat up, and your mind beginning to fog? Hmm?"

Xia Feifei suddenly froze, eyes widening in disbelief, "Could it be you..."

"You're not entirely stupid. Yes, you guessed right, I drugged you, a strong imported aphrodisiac. In just a few minutes, you'll be begging me to do you, hahaha, hahahaha!"

"You! You scoundrel!"

Xia Feifei's pupils suddenly contracted, and in one swift motion, she stood from the chair. But she had just halfway stood up when she felt dizzy, her body almost uncontrollable, and she collapsed back onto the chair.

"Scoundrel? What a delightful compliment, thank you!"

Yu Zekai laughed maniacally, flicking ash from the cigarette into his wine glass. He slowly got up from the chair, moved beside Xia Feifei, and blew smoke in her face. As she glared at him in fury, he lifted his hand to grip her chin.

"Tsk tsk tsk... That expression is truly beautiful. I'm finding that your face is looking better and better."

Feeling the mockery in Yu Zekai's words and the wickedness in his gaze, Xia Feifei was both shocked and angry, wanting to flee, but she was powerless, and a deep fear began to spread in her heart.

"You... what exactly do you want?"

"What do I want? I think I just mentioned it, didn't I? I'm waiting for you to beg me to do it to you, didn't you hear? Hmm?"
