Dan could not remember how he managed to bring himself home. He lied on his bed and blankly stared at the ceiling. Shaoting's words echoed in his head.
"...you were naked on your bed, and another woman was dressing herself up beside you."
"Another woman...another woman..." Dan was racking his brain for memories.
Years ago, when Midori left him, he stopped thinking rationally. All he wanted was to see her again.
He pondered with difficulty. What did he miss? He has to remember! Midori left him because of it!
He bolted up, as if an idea hit him. That day, Ming Rushi came by!

When Lu Shaoting came home, he was surprised that she was not eating chips on the sofa. After setting up food on the table, he went into the bedroom wherein he can hear the shower.
Jiang Mei Ling grew into a beautiful woman, earning admirers from all walks of life. She stands at 165cm, with slender body, proportionate bust and hips, all covered with porcelain skin. She has angled brows, expressive brown eyes, tall nose and thin lips, with prominent cheekbones. Her popularity rose in a short amount of time after she entered the entertainment industry. From advertisement modeling and minor roles in television series when she was still in school, to supporting and lead roles in movies and dramas after graduating, she amazed producers and fans alike. It was a shock in the industry when she revealed her engagement to the newcomer director, Lu Shaoting, whose original film won awards and was shown internationally.
The fans who were initially shocked saw the announcement in a new light as the cameras focused on the heir of Luxe Entertainment. Lu Shaoting was one of the most eligible bachelors in the industry. Though he is not an artist, his mother is the renowned actress Ning Xiu and his father is director and producer, Lu Ting. Thus his looks were made for the camera, with his dark eyes, full straight brows, tall nose and plump lips. He later on swapped his nerdy full-rim glasses with a pair of rectangular frameless glasses. He stands at 178cm and looks elegant with both casual and formal clothes. To add to the hype, paparazzi had also taken photos of his wide shoulders, toned chest, and 6-pack abs whenever he went swimming.
Fans then supported this couple and their extravagant wedding was even broadcasted on national television. Now that they are expecting, the actress Mei Ling took a leave from showbiz while Director Lu continued with his projects.
Shaoting was taking his shirt off when the door to the bathroom revealed Mei in a fluffy robe, with flushed skin and wet hair.
She hugged him from behind and started to caress his chest and abdominal areas.
Shaoting let out a grunt, then called in a low voice, "Mei..."
"Hmmm?" She continued to press her body on his as she twirled her fingers on his upper body.
Shaoting swifty turned around and kissed her passionately.
Mei furrowed her brows as she tasted iron on his mouth. She broke the intimacy to look at his face.
She raised her hand to caress his lip. "What happened to you?"
Shaoting closed his eyes and embraced her tighter. "Verdan Zhou went to the set today."
"So he hit you?!" Mei's voice had a hint of anger.
Shaoting lifted his wife and gently laid her on the bed. Then he lied down next to her, propping up her head and upper back with his arm.
"He asked me if I know the reason why Midori left him." he paused so it could sink in.
"He cheated! How could he not know why?!"
Shaoting rubbed her back to calm her down. "It was actually strange. When I told him about what I saw, his reaction told me that he had no idea...as if, he just learned these things from me."
Mei shot him a confused look.
"He even thought that they were lies I told Midori."
"Hey! But..." she began to get pissed again.
"I think he was caught unawares."
