When she arrived, the venue was already crowded. She sought out Song Menghwa and Fang Rou first. After greeting them, she turned around and met Tang Nuan.

Both of them pretended the other wasn't there, and they brushed past each other. After bidding farewell to an uncle who she had known since she was a child, she ran into Qin Yinan.

She had quite a good chat with him, if not for the sudden interruption of Tang Nuan.

Song Qingchun told herself that she needed to fess up to Brother Yinan about the truth that Tang Nuan had cheated on him. However, thinking about how loyal and charmed Qin Yinan was toward Tang Nuan all these years, she simply couldn't bring herself to do it.

Even though it was Tang Nuan who was disloyal to him, for some reason, the guilt weighed down on Song Qingchun. As Qin Yinan smiled genially at her, the feeling of guilt intensified. In the end, she made up an excuse and escaped the scene.

Actually, she didn't have to use the bathroom, but when Song Menghwa called her, her gaze swept her shoulders as she turned around, and the bite marks on her chest that was covered up by concealer had started to show.

Afraid that her father might notice it, she said hurriedly that she had to use the bathroom. As she used the concealer to slather over those bite marks, the memory of how they got there appeared in Song Qingchun's mind.

What is wrong with me? Su Zhinian has already admitted it was all a mistake so why has the thought been stuck in my head for the whole day?

Song Qingchun cupped some cold water in her hands and splashed it over her face. She was trying to bring the temperature of her burning face down as soon as possible.

She splashed her face twice when she suddenly stopped moving. She stared at her reflection in the mirror, and her brows slowly creased.

Something's off She had been too flustered the night before to make any sense of it. Then, she was brought for a confusing spin by Su Zhinian and headed straight to bed after they returned. She didn't have time to mull over the incident but now that she thought about it How come it feels so familiar?

Song Qingchun stopped everything she was doing and raised her fingers to touch her lips; she started to reminisce on how she felt when Su Zhinian kissed her last night. Suddenly, her finger shivered.

The kiss from last night was eerily similar to the kiss she had gotten from her savior at the North Sea Garden.

Song Qingchun bit on her fingernails as she contemplated this "coincidence".

Su Zhinian said, it was not him who saved me

But if it was not him, how could the two kisses be so similar? Is he lying?

Song Qingchun frowned deeply and stood there for a long time before pulling back her thoughts.

Argh, this is so confusing. I'll just ask him when I have the chance. Furthermore, Father sounded like he had something important to tell me when he called me just now.

Song Qingchun fixed her make-up and pushed everything back into her purse before turning to head out of the bathroom.

She had pulled the door open a sliver when a large force pushed it in from the outside. The strength of the force made her falter back a few steps. When she steadied herself, the door had been slammed close, and a man wearing the uniform from the clubhouse was standing in the room with her.

Song Qingchun was dazed and was about to demand an explanation when the man rushed over to press her against the wall and reached out to clamp his palm over her mouth.
