In Castle Night Bar,
The Four brothers bid farewell and each left the Bar one by one. Gu Chen was the last to go out of the bar. As it was raining heavily outside, Gu Chen ran into his Porsche 718 Cayman GTS just parked proudly outside of the Night Bar.
Gu Chen was driving, when it was red light he stopped and waited for the lights to turn green so he could go. While he was waiting he saw a similar figure of a woman he kissed at the airport, afterwards he have been wanting to find but couldn't. Walking under the rain seemingly sad. He don't know why but he felt his heart ache for the woman.
Without thinking he drove his car to a corner and parked his car there before silently following the woman in front of him. Gu Chen did not care about the rain as he just keep following the woman silently. With each step he took he felt his heart being stabbed a thousand times.

As Song Yao wasn't around in Country Z, Song Lie and Wan Yu. Song Yu Biological father and mother were quarreling because Song Lie was being caught cheating by Wan Yu.
"You finally cannot be bothered to keep your mistress away, is it?" Wan Yu mocked, knowing very well what was happening.
"She is your sister, Ah Yu" Song Yao tried to reasoned out with Wan Yu, knowing very well whatever he did will never be able to get Wan Yu back anymore.
"Yea, I did not know my sister could be this kind of person. You're one of a kind too, doing something like this"
"What do you want me to do then?, you were always fighting your way in the business industry. Always the strong headed "She-devil" whatever you did was all about your career and life. You never spare time with me, or even bother trying to know about what was happening in my life." Song Yao refuted, he too felt hurt doing this to Wan Yu but things had already gotten to this stage. it would not hurt much to say what his feeling, right?
"Hua Hua, is different, when i was down or in despair. She was the only one there for me, you on the other hand was not even in the country. For the marriage between families, you married me. For the sake of a strong foothold in the Song's, you gave birth to Xiao Yu"
After what Song lie Said, Wan Yu felt at a loss of words. She felt deceived and cheated, all along Song Lie had never trusted her and had always think of her as a heartless woman and her beloved sister who have always coveted everything she had. Be it parents or husband both was snatch away by Wan Hua.
From the day Wan Yu was ordered to marry Song Lie, she felt super happy as Song Lie was the man she loved at first sight and the man who she wants to live her rest of the life with.
But before Wan Yu married Song Lie, one day she saw Song Lie and Wan Hua kissing each other, that's when Wan Yu felt as though her world have crumbled to nothing. She was in utter despair, she couldn't describe how she felt. Disappointed, hatred, angry all these feelings she felt it all at once. Just like someone suddenly punch her hardly in the face. Therefore, after the incident she gave up on love.
She wanted revenge, she wants to snatch back Song Lie from Wan Hua afterwards then divorce with him, Hence, she and Song Lie had sexual intercourse and that's how Song Yu was born. Wan Yu didn't know how she felt when she gave birth to Song Yu. She was happy and sad at the same time, Song Yu was like a blessing and curse for her.
A reminder for her of Song Lie betrayal. But how can she ever hate her own daughter. Therefore, she tried her best to care for her in a tough way. Hitting Song Yu when she made a mistake or when Song Yu wants to sit beside her or try to get close to her she felt disgusted and scold her to not touch her.
Because of Wan Yu not loving and caring for Song Yu, it gradually made Song Yu turning into a ruthless woman. Song Yu became the epitome of devil, she learns to fight, kill and basically feel nothing.

Not wanting to continue such a distrustful marriage, she looked in the eyes of the man she once love. "Let's divorce" was the only thing that could come out of her mouth.
Song Lie felt regretful and sad for saying things like that to Wan Yu, after hearing what Wan Yu said he felt even more sad and regretful. He tried to pull Wan Yu back but he felt like she is getting further and further away from him.
That's when he knew he mess up, when he saw Wan Yu wanting to leave he tried to stop her.
"Wan Yu, sorry. Can you please come back to me please, I can't lose you, I...", Before Song Lie could say any further Wan Hua who was all along outside of Song manor came in.
Song Lie and Wan Yu was shock and at the same time confused as to why she came.
"Brother Song Lie, please don't leave Huahua." Wan Hua act innocently at Song Lie.
Song Lie Didn't know know what to say he felt guilty and conflicted, he wants to choose Wan Yu but he also cannot abandon Wan Hua. But before he even speak Wan Yu had already help him decided.
"Song Lie, you don't have to choose since you can't choose then i'll help you choose. I'll leave." Wan Yu said in an emotionless tone.
Song Lie was angry, no furious he was so furious that his face started to turn red from anger, he walked towards Wan Yu and held her wrist tightly, which started to hurt Wan Yu. He shouted "WAN YU! why do you insist on leaving me." Song Lie accused.
Wan Yu felt accused and said, "I insist of leaving you? from the day when i saw Wan Hua kissing you before we got married. I have already gave up on our marriage!"
Song Lie and Wan Hua were shocked that there were speechless, they thought in their head. When did Wan Yu saw it.
"Wan Yu, I.....I am sorry." Song Lie looked at Wan Yu apologetically.
"Don't bother coming to find me, take care of Yu Yue for me" after what she said, she left without looking back.
Song Lie wanted to chase Wan Yu, but knowing the strong headed woman. He knew, he got no choice but to leave her be. When she wants to comeback, she will.
Unbeknown to them, a certain someone was all along listening to everything unfolding. The things that were said, only meant one thing for the person none other than Song Yu to feel. One could say that, her eyes bore no feelings, or were in great despair. Something that was not supposed for an 18 year old to feel.
