At Tianzhou City People's Hospital, accompanying the crisp sound of high heels in the corridor, a stunningly beautiful woman busts through the door. "Let's break up!"

Li Dong is stunned. The woman is Zhang Ting, his girlfriend from police academy for several years and an admissible police flower.

Once he had a stable job, he prepared the betrothal gifts, bought a car, a house, and even proposed several times.

However, Zhang Ting never agreed, and the marriage kept being postponed.

Break up?

Because of a car accident, he had been in the hospital bed for an entire month. On the day of his discharge, his girlfriend unexpectedly proposed to break up?

Suppressing his anger, Li Dong asked, "Why?"

Zhang Ting heartlessly responded, "Jiang Haichao is pursuing me, and I've accepted!"

Li Dong's pupils contracted, fists clenched under the blanket instantly. "Just because he is the second generation of officials?"

Zhang Ting nodded, "Yes, his father is the deputy district head of Jiangbei District in Tianzhou City, and his mother is the chairwoman of the local state-owned corporation!

"What about you? Your father is a laid-off worker with no pension, your mother has asthma and doesn't even have medical insurance."

"I'm still young and have an entire lifetime of youth ahead. I don't want to spend my life in a daze with you!"

Li Dong's voice is low. "So, you have determined that I, Li Dong, cannot compare with him in this lifetime?"

Zhang Ting sneered, "On what grounds can you compare? He's in the patrol division of Jiangbei Sub-bureau, but you're just an intern policeman from the town police station, sometimes minding pigs, sometimes chasing dogs!"

"Do you know every time someone ask me where my boyfriend works, I'm ashamed to utter it!"

“Looking back, I was so blind to have wasted four prime years of my life on you; I should have chosen Jiang Haichao!"

Li Dong feigned an unprecedented indifference, “I am curious, what would he offer you?”

Zhang Ting unflinchingly revealed, "He offered a position in the propaganda office of the branch bureau."

Li Dong fully comprehended. It was a job where no forced labor was required, and the people she would be dealing with mostly were bureau leaders.

Whenever there were any cultural performances or work reports, she would always be at the forefront.

For women, especially beautiful ones like Zhang Ting, this was undoubtedly an express ladder to success. No wonder she was so ruthless!

Li Dong sneered, "You thought he loves you? He simply wants to step on me, and you are just the trophy he shows off to me!"

Zhang Ting looked at him with pity in her eyes, "Do you always have to measure others' minds with your petty thoughts? Is it really hard to admit that someone is better than you?”

"Jiang Haichao is not the man you think. He truly loves me, and doesn't dwell on my past with you!”

Li Dong retorted cynically, “If that’s the case, then why did you come looking for me?”

Zhang Ting's face beamed with triumph, “Jiang Haichao just proposed to me, and I’ve accepted. We're getting married next month.”

"Do you know what kind of family the Jiangs have? They do not want any scandal.”

"I will spread the word, implying that we peacefully broke up after graduation. There’s no need for you to show up or explain anything — you just need to go along with the narrative.”

Li Dong nodded in understanding, “I see, you are now the daughter-in-law of Deputy Chief Jiang, you can’t afford to have a tarnished reputation.”

With a surprise in her eyes, Zhang Ting asked, “So, does that mean you agree?”

A trace of severity surfaced in Li Dong's eyes, "You're such a social climbing woman, you're not worth me trying to hold onto you at all."

"Go tell Mr. Jiang that this matter isn't over yet. On your wedding day, I'll personally deliver a big gift!"

On Zhang Ting's face, incredulity spread, "Li Dong, have you lost your mind? With what you have, how could you compete with Jiang Haichao?"

"Do you know who Jiang Haichao's father is? It's said that he is going to be promoted again by the year-end. With the power of the Jiang family, killing you would be as easy as squashing an ant!"

"If you agree to break up amicably, Jiang Haichao said, he could try helping you relocate your work unit; moving back to the city wouldn't be a problem."

"But if you dare to cause a commotion at our wedding, I can assure you, he would have you torn limb from limb!"

"I know you can't let go of me, but there is really no need for you to have a life-and-death struggle with Jiang Haichao. I wouldn't change my mind for a man like you!"

Li Dong’s cold laughter echoed, “Don’t flatter yourself. If you don’t like me, someone else will. I just don’t want to let you two benefit!"

Zhang Ting retorted without hesitation, "Haha, I never knew you, Li Dong, were so capable."

"Who is so blind, treating a loser as a treasure, and introduce them so I can meet them?"

Just then, the door to the room was pushed open. "It's me!"

Eyebrows as distant as mountains, eyes shining like stars.

This was Li Dong's first impression of her. In fact, looks were secondary; her demeanor took precedence. There was an indescribable sense of nobility about her in every move she made.

It wasn’t something that could be feigned. It was inherent, right in her blood and bones.

Zhang Ting too was a beautiful woman. Being considered the campus beauty, her good looks were undeniable.

Moreover, there are tens of thousands of people in the police academy. If she did not have some substance, there's no way that she would have caused Jiang Haichao, a rich young master, to pursue her relentlessly, regardless of cost.

However, in front of this mysterious woman, Zhang Ting's brilliance was abruptly eclipsed, completely overshadowed, and utterly mundane!

The key point was, why was she stepping in to help him?

Li Dong searched his memory thoroughly, but he couldn't recall having any relationship with a woman of this level.

In his moment of distraction, the woman had forcefully approached. "Are you Zhang Ting?"

Zhang Ting adopted a guarded stance. "Who are you?"

An inherent assertiveness bolted from the woman. "My daughter calls Li Dong, 'Dad.' Who do you think I am?"
