Returning home, Mo Qingyun cried as she packed everything Ou Yunchen had bought her into trash bags.
If she could speak, she would curse him with the most venomous words!
But she couldn't say anything. Perhaps Ou Yunchen was right to despise her; what right did a mute have to be liked by a normal person?
Every time she was anxious, she could only communicate by writing, and she hated her inability to speak.
As she touched that star, Mo Qingyun hesitated. It was the first gift Ou Yunchen had given her.
Even now, she couldn't help but laugh when she remembered Ou Yunchen saying the star was worth a hundred million.
Mo Qingyun couldn't understand why the gentle Ou Yunchen had become so indifferent. Was it true, as Apple said, that men became bad when they had money?
With a clang, as Mo Qingyun was lost in thought, the crystal star in her hand fell to the floor.
Mo Qingyun quickly crouched down to pick it up, but unfortunately, a corner of the star was broken. The star was no longer perfect, just like her tonight, her heart broken for Ou Yunchen...

After dropping Su Ruiyi off, Ou Yunchen drove alone to Athena.
Athena, which had suspended its ladies' section, was now operating as a simple bar.
Ou Yunchen found a seat. The service staff here had all been replaced, and no one recognized him.
Waiter: "Sir, this is from the guest over there."
Ou Yunchen followed the waiter's gaze. In the dim light, an elegant lady sat there, smiling and raising her hand to him.
It wasn't until a spotlight swept across her beautiful eyes that Ou Yunchen remembered who she was.
Maggie, the biological daughter of the previous Tang. After Old Tang passed away and left most of his business to Axe, Maggie had disappeared.
Although there were rumors that she had questioned Tang's will, Axe always found a way to silence any dissenting voices and people.
Ou Yunchen believed that Maggie's appearance at Athena now was no accident.
As Ou Yunchen picked up the drink to politely toast his former 'little sister,' a man in black beside Maggie walked over to him.
Man in black: "O, Miss Maggie wants you to come over and chat."
Ou Yunchen put down his drink, deliberately leaning back on the sofa. He stretched out his arms and casually rested them on the back of the sofa, then tilted his head slightly to look at the woman not far away. She was no longer the little girl he remembered.
Maggie inherited half of Old Tang's European genes. As an adult, her voluptuous figure was fully displayed.
Ou Yunchen patted the seat next to him. He was no longer just a godson who would obey and be at the beck and call of Old Tang's daughter.
Maggie smiled, put on her headphones, and gave the man in black a look.
At this, the man in black took out a pair of headphones from his inner pocket and handed them to Ou Yunchen.
— In conversation with Maggie —
Maggie: "Long time no see, my brother. How have you been?"
Ou Yunchen: "You say long time no see, but you don't come to your brother's side to reminisce. Do you think I'm doing well or poorly?"
Maggie deliberately leaned down towards Ou Yunchen, gently stroking the expensive diamond necklace around her neck with one hand.
But she knew that no man would only look at that dazzling array of lights, but rather at the deep cleavage beneath the diamonds.
Maggie: "I didn't expect you to survive the battle for godson. I knew you wouldn't disappoint me."
Ou Yunchen: "Then you see now."
Maggie: "I heard you became a bartender. For a guest like me, what kind of service should you provide?"
Ou Yunchen deliberately knocked over the ashtray on the table, then quickly bent down to catch it just before it hit the ground.
He didn't rush to straighten up, but slowly let his gaze travel upwards from Maggie's toes.
His eyes held a provocative glint, making Maggie, sitting there, feel a burning sensation spreading from her feet to her chest.
Ou Yunchen: "That depends on what you can bring me."
As he spoke, Maggie deliberately hooked an ice cube from her glass. She held it between her index finger and thumb, her eyes fixed on Ou Yunchen's as she brought the ice cube to her lips.
Then, with a hazy gaze, she let the shining little thing slide down her jawline, then lower, and lower, all the way to her chest.
Just as the ice cube was about to fall into the cleavage, a charming female voice sounded in Ou Yunchen's headphones.
Maggie beckoned and said, "It's so cold, help me take it out."
Ou Yunchen actually stood up, took off his headphones, and walked step by step towards the seductive woman.
When Ou Yunchen reached Maggie's side, her head was tilted back, and the deliberately exposed sensual angle seemed to exude alluring signals at all times.
But...
With a splash, Ou Yunchen threw his removed headphones into Maggie's wine glass.
As Maggie stared in disbelief at the headphones soaking in her wine, she felt like she had been played!
And Ou Yunchen gave Maggie no chance. He directly locked her chin, forcing her to raise her head again and look at him respectfully.
The man in black rushed to her side, but Maggie knew Ou Yunchen wouldn't harm her, so she raised her hand, telling them not to act rashly.
Ou Yunchen: "Why learn from a prostitute?"
Maggie: "You!"
Ou Yunchen: "With Old Tang gone, is there no one to teach you how to be a lady?"
Maggie: "Let go of me!"
Ou Yunchen: "If you're so desperate for a man, get married. Don't bother my life."
With that, Ou Yunchen exerted force, and Maggie's head hit the back of the sofa hard.
Seeing Ou Yunchen leave without looking back, Maggie stood up and shouted at him.
Maggie: "I want you to help me!"
Ou Yunchen stopped in his tracks. Maggie ran over.
