Although her father had told her to go overseas for a while, Xu Weilai knew that this while would last for a long, long time…
Even so, she didn’t possess the right to say no.
The next day, Xu Weilai packed her luggage, and, using the excuse that she was going to study, she left for the United States.
Although the breaking of the engagement wasn’t publicized, the social circle was small enough that everyone in it was talking about it within a few days. In the end, the rumor that became fact was that Xu Weilai had climbed into Gu Yu’s bed in an effort to force him to marry her. However, the plan had backfired, and Gu Yu had broken off the engagement instead. Such a brazen and shameless woman was unfit to be the mistress of the Gu household! Because of the shame she had brought upon the Xu family, she had been exiled to a foreign country.
By the time this story reached Xu Weilai’s ears, she had already been overseas for more than a fortnight. Throughout everything, Gu Yu had not contacted her at all!
Following that, she had all domestic news blocked out, and Gu Yu, whom she had once thought that she would spend the rest of her life together with, eventually became a stranger to her.
Three years pa.s.sed in the blink of an eye.

When Xu Weilai walked out of the airport, the Xu family’s chauffeur, Uncle Chen, was already waiting at the entrance. He spotted her and quickly rushed up to greet her, taking her luggage from her as he did so.
“Miss Weilai, you must be tired from the long journey.”
Xu Weilai nodded her head lightly and smiled in reply.
As the car sped through the wide roads, Xu Weilai lowered the window and looked out of the car.
The Capital had changed a lot in three years. High-rise buildings had sprung up, and the population had increased. Most eye-catching of all were the ads of Su Ziqian that were posted at every road and junction.
Su Ziqian was a belle who had gained national popularity in recent years. Even while overseas, Xu Weilai had heard of her.
