Charlene held back, then said, “I’ll be done soon and head back. Take care of yourself.”

She picked a random topic and rambled a bit before hanging up.

She looked lost and devastated, as if struck by something heavy.

She wanted to ask him why he treated her like this. She believed she hadn’t done anything wrong.

She was unwilling, but she walked back to the door of the private room. This time, she could hear Qin Zhen and his friends laughing and joking loudly.

“Qin Zhen, seriously, are you for real? You’re so attentive to that rich girl,” one of Qin Zhen’s friends suddenly said.

His words made Charlene freeze in her tracks. Her heart pounded harder, as if getting closer to the truth.

“How is that possible? Rich girls are all the same, aloof and difficult to please,” Qin Zhen retorted playfully.

“In that case, you’re not interested in her?” his friend chuckled with a meaningful look.

“Do you think I’m like you, falling for every girl I meet? I’m very open-minded. I won’t give up the forest for one tree,” he replied, pinching the girl’s chin beside him lightly and with a frivolous look.

Charlene was completely stunned, unable to react further. It felt like her feet were weighed down by thousands of pounds of lead, unable to move forward.

Was the rich girl they were talking about her? She couldn’t believe what she was hearing.

It couldn’t be her.

When she was with Qin Zhen, she had treated him sincerely, always putting him first, accommodating him, feeling like she had lost herself.

How could she be aloof and superior?

If it wasn’t her, then who was the rich girl Qin Zhen mentioned?

Charlene felt her thoughts muddled, unable to think straight. Her heart felt dead.

“Brother Zhen, I’ve always admired you. Seriously, you’ve taken care of everything from start to finish. When we made the bet about who could get Charlene, you volunteered, and she was so obedient to you. You won,” his friend praised, giving him a thumbs-up in admiration.

Qin Zhen smiled faintly, not saying anything, but the sense of superiority was evident.

Charlene seemed numb, realizing this was the truth of the matter.

Their relationship wasn’t about love, but about a bet, a game.

It was ridiculous. She was too foolish, too naive.

In this game of love, she was the only one who took it seriously, while the other treated it like a bet.

She wasn’t interested in hearing what they said next. She already knew the truth and didn’t need to stay here and be humiliated.

She walked out of the club like a soulless doll, indifferent to the passersby who bumped into her in a hurry.

That day, it seemed like even the heavens understood her mood, as it started raining. After getting drenched in the rain for a while, she returned home with a fever.

She was sick for a whole week. After recovering, she was like a different person, never mentioning Qin Zhen again.

She blocked Qin Zhen’s number and moved out of the house, staying in a villa in the countryside to recuperate.

She completely shut Qin Zhen out of her world.

Because she left before hearing everything, Qin Zhen later told his friend, “Charlene is actually quite nice. It wouldn’t be bad to date her.”

His friend chuckled and shook his head. A playboy’s nature would never change.
