Chapter 829: A Clean Cut

    

her arms.Qiao Bao'er didn't think much of it, allowing him to hold her like that, waiting for someone to come. She was worried that his wound would become infected if it took too long to heal."Shepher...On the other side of the door, Fang Mei had been driven to tears by her family.

She had never allowed herself to cry so freely and openly before. She cried her heart out, until her tears ran dry, gradually transitioning from sobs to sniffles as she slowly regained her composure.

The funniest thing is that she found out that everything those women who insulted her yesterday said was true.

She is not worthy of Henry.

She only cares about taking advantage of Henry and his money.

He deserves a better partner, and she isn't it.

To force a man to marry her, she went to great lengths, even resorting to getting pregnant on purpose and using the child as leverage, employing every underhanded scheme imaginable, twisting herself into a monstrous figure.

"I don't want to become that ugly woman."

Fang Mei shook herself and stood up, using cold water to splash her face vigorously. Looking at the pale and haggard reflection in the mirror, she suddenly came to her senses.

She was tired, she really didn't want to argue with him anymore.

She now desperately just wants to make a clean break.

Because she had a hangover from last night, she was still feeling the effects of alcohol all over her body. She took a long, hot shower in the bathroom for almost half an hour to wash it off and calm herself down before coming out.

She changed into a new outfit, tidied her appearance, blow-dried her hair, and even put on heavy makeup to cover up her rather sickly pale complexion.

She probably caught a cold last night and has a bad head cold. Her headache is splitting.

But it didn't matter, she had taken care of herself abroad for so many years. She took out the medicine and without much thought, swallowed it all at once.

Stepping back into the bedroom and facing the full-length mirror, she checked her posture carefully. It was fine, she was alright now, she was strong. Even though she wasn't feeling well, she could handle things just fine.

"Fāng Méi, come on!"

"Fang Mei, don't be afraid, nothing can defeat you, you can do it!"

Just like someone facing problems alone abroad, she still encouraged herself and gave herself pep talks.

Went downstairs and called a taxi, going straight to Henry's company.

She wants to tell him directly.

What are you doing here

When Jiang Shiyi saw her at the company gate, she immediately became wary and approached her.

Fang Mei no longer wanted to play games with this woman. She got straight to the point and said, "I'm here to see Henry. Ask him to come out. I have something important to talk to him about."

"Henry is recording a show right now, he's very busy." Agent Jiang Shiyi just wanted to get rid of her as quickly as possible.

Fang Mei knew this female agent was trying every trick in the book to stop her and Henry. If it had been before, she would have felt a little annoyed, but now it didn't matter to her.

"If Henry is busy now, I wouldn't recommend waiting for him in your break room. Let me talk to him after he finishes his work."

Fang Mei's voice was very flat today.

Jiang Shiyi seemed to feel it too; her mood was different today. Thinking back to last night, she had suddenly left the event and gone to a nightclub where she drank heavily until she was completely drunk. She eventually got into an argument with Henry and even pinched his finger.

Could she have come here deliberately to get back together with Henry

Thinking about this, Jiang Shiyi was even more unwilling for them to meet.

"You know, you made us wait outside your house all night yesterday. We were worried sick about you! We looked everywhere for you and then when we finally saw you, you kicked us out! And on top of that, you hurt Henry’s finger! Today, he couldn't even handle water during the recording because his hand is still hurting."

Fang Mei suddenly sneered.

"Henry's finger hurt Was it bad Is his finger broken Didn't you take him to the hospital"

Jiang Shiyi was shocked and her tone became even angrier, “So you are such a vicious woman, you even cursed him to have his fingers broken I'm going to tell Henry the truth about you.”

Fang Mei really went all out today.

"What's my true face hahaha..."

"I've been with Henry for seven years, and he still doesn't know who I really am."

“His finger is injured, and I... my heart has been pierced by all of you, dripping with blood. Now I fear nothing. None of your words can hurt me anymore!”

"Jiang Shiyi, don't think I don't know what you're thinking. Let me be straight with you, you don't have to worry about anything. I won't get back together with Henry. I just want to talk to him about breaking up!"

Break up

Jiang Shiyi looked at her with a surprised expression. Her eyes were firm and cold, which initially made Jiang Shiyi doubt, but then a secret joy filled her heart.

This ugly woman finally knows her place.

Finally, I'm not bothering Henry anymore.

Jiangs Poetry's joy was all over her face. Fang Mei looked at her, the forced coldness in her heart gradually turning into a sourness.

Over the years, her love life has never been well-received. People have always hoped she'd wake up and see sense sooner rather than later.

She should have seen the light a long time ago.

"Then come in, wait in the lounge first. I'll call Henry over when he finishes recording." Jiang Shiyi's attitude immediately became positive and she even helped open the glass door for her.

Fang Mei intentionally put on heavy makeup and accentuated her blush, trying to make herself appear more energetic and radiant. However, it wasn't until she saw her reflection in the glass door that she realized the lifelessness in her eyes.

She dragged her weary steps, waiting quietly inside.

Henry was surprised and delighted to hear that Fang Mei had come to the company to find him. He thought that she must have been emotionally agitated last night, drinking so much, and probably got into an argument with him out of momentary anger provoked by her friends' instigation.

He's not usually like this, he must have been instigated by Song Mengmeng.

She is usually gentle and generous, very considerate of him.

She was the only one sitting in the lounge, waiting. Looking at her profile, for some reason, she felt that his figure seemed thinner and more haggard today.

Henry walked up quickly, his voice soft and tender, saying, "I miss you."

He instinctively wanted to hug her, just like he always did.

Fang Mei suddenly stood up and quickly took a few steps back, putting distance between them.

Henry was stunned, a little bewildered.

"What's wrong" he asked her, looking at her curiously.

Henry noticed that Fangmei had made a rare effort with her makeup today, her face meticulously done up. Even the outfit she was wearing seemed specially chosen, unlike her usual casual style. This level of formality and attention to detail wasn't typical for Fangmei.

He thought, maybe she was sorry for what happened last night and came over to make up with him.

Henry wore his usual smile, he raised his right hand, the one that had been injured yesterday was bandaged now, and nonchalantly said to her, "It's nothing…"

He had not finished speaking.

"Let's break up," Fang Mei said calmly, suddenly throwing out the words.

"Huh"

Henry was caught off guard.

Fang Mei's expression was serious, her tone solemn. She repeated slowly, word by word, "I said, we break up."

Henry listened, his brow furrowed in concern.

"Are you still angry"

What did your friend Song Mengmeng say to you again

"We've been getting along just fine all these years, you've never forced me like this before..."

Henry felt that Fang Mei had changed recently. She used to be so gentle and considerate, but now she was acting unreasonable and making a fuss every few days.

"Don't drag my friends into this," Fang Mei said, her voice rising with anger.

Actually, her love was very humble. Even if she was nothing special, even if she wasn't as good as him, she wouldn't allow others to slander her friends.

Henry was stunned. She had actually snapped at him.

Henry even eyed her with the look he reserved for strangers, as if the woman before him were no longer the familiar lover he once knew.

In his view, Fang Mei had changed.

Henry's gaze brought about a collapse deep within her heart. Even though this moment was one of agonizing turmoil, she would steel herself and stand tall.

Fang Mei choked back tears, trying to calm herself before saying in a measured tone, "Henry, I've thought about this seriously, and we really aren't right for each other."

"Besides, my family owes you the down payment. I will definitely pay you back slowly in the future."

"No..." Henry interrupted immediately.

She looked at his handsome face, her wet eyes brimming with tears. She pleaded in a choked voice, "Can we break up peacefully I'm really exhausted, I just want to end this as soon as possible."

After saying that, Fang Mei turned and ran out as if escaping.

Henry was dumbfounded.

Especially when she said she was exhausted, as if their relationship was a huge burden on her.

While the agent had been eavesdropping outside the resting room, as soon as she came out, the first thing he said was, "Ms. Fang, since you have broken up with Henry, could you please return the apartment keys to me Because that apartment is actually rented by me. And because of Henry, I rented it to you at a low price."

Since you and Henry are no longer together, I hope you can part ways cleanly.

The agent, Jiang Shiyi, sounded very formal as she reached out to request the return of the rental house keys.

Fang Mei's whole body was trembling. Her eyes were filled with tears, biting her lip to keep them from falling, she quickly searched her bag for her keys and threw them back into her hand.

She didn't want to stay here for a second.an's coat over her body. He wanted to pull her up, but Zhu Xiaowei acted like a child, lying on the bed refusing to get up."Why do I have to listen Why do I always have to listen..." She mumbled, her...
