Lu Yihan’s colleague wrapped his arm around Luo Zhan’s shoulder and hustled him over. With a wine glass in his hand, he declared, “Come on, bottoms up!”

Luo Zhan cast a quick glance at Lu Yihan before taking the wine glass and finishing its contents at one go. Everyone at the table burst out in applause,

“Good! Good alcohol tolerance,” one of the friends said. “Yihan, your good friend has already drank it, and you’re still not? Come on, falling out of love isn’t a big deal. Why are you putting up such a fuss about it?”

The information this statement carried almost made Luo Zhan throw up the wine that he had just consumed. “Out of love?”

Wait... Falling out of love? This guy had fallen out of love? Had he been dumped? How was that possible?

“Yeah! Didn’t you know?” The colleagues surrounding Lu Yihan nodded their heads and began to share juicy details of the matter.

They tugged Luo Zhan down onto the seat and said, “I’ll fill you in. Lu Yihan had a girlfriend a little while back. She was really pretty and had a voluptuous figure. She used to come by the office every day to see him. All of a sudden, for no reason, she stopped coming. My guess is that...”

The volume of the colleague’s voice wasn’t high, but at this juncture, she lowered her volume even further and asked, “Did you notice that Lu Yihan has lost a lot of weight recently?”

That went without saying. That had been the first thing he’d realized when he saw him. Luo Zhan turned to face the colleague and asked, “Are you telling me that he’s in this state because he got dumped and has been depressed ever since?”

“No, no, no.” The colleague shook her head immediately and said, “How can this guy ever get dumped by a woman? He was the one who dumped her.”

“Huh?” Luo Zhan couldn’t wrap his head around it and asked, “Why?”

The same colleague clapped her hand enthusiastically and commented, “That’s the right question! Why? We’re all guessing what the answer is too!”

Lu Yihan was sitting in their midst fiddling with his mobile. He looked around. His eyes finally settled on the colleague who was sharing the gossip with Luo Zhan.

He picked up a discarded piece of fruit skin and threw it at the girl in annoyance, saying, “Stop cooking up stories! Half the rumors are started by you!”

The colleague raised her hand and caught the fruit skin. She replied in laughter, “Not at all! But, you’re a piece of work! You even hid it from your best friend! What sort of loyalty is that?”

Best friend... Is she referring to me? For some reason, Luo Zhan secretly rejoiced. At least in the eyes of others, their relationship was still good.

“D*mn you! Stop talking!” Lu Yihan shot his colleague a warning glance. The girl sobered up instantly.

The one at the losing end of the entire exchange was Luo Zhan. He hadn’t been able to hear the end of the story and had been left hanging right in the middle. The lack of closure was a horrible feeling.

Luo Zhan looked at the person beside him. Question marks written all over his face. All she did in reply was shrug her shoulders and say, “Hey, I’m off to the restroom!”

With that, she stood up and walked out.

Luo Zhan stood up immediately too and declared, “I’m going too!”

“Didn’t you just come? Why are you going to the restroom so soon?” Lu Yihan asked even though he knew exactly what they were doing.

Without any hesitation, Luo Zhan turned his head back and replied matter-of-factly, “I have a kidney deficiency!”

The jaws of everyone at the table dropped. Under the silent scrutiny of everyone, Luo Zhan hurried over to the other colleague asked, “So, what happened?”

The colleague looked over her shoulder and replied, “Ever since Lu Yihan got together with his girlfriend, he’d been losing weight. Our suspicion is that he was bled dry by her. He finally dumped her when he couldn’t take it anymore.”

Luo Zhan reaction was one of disbelief. “I don’t think that’s possible...”

“That’s because you have no idea foxy that woman was,” the woman said. “Let me show you her picture!”

She took her phone out and scrolled to find the picture. When Luo Zhan saw it, he jerked back in surprise.

That face...
