Her name was Yao Liwen, and she was twenty-three years old. She had a boyfriend whom she had known for almost seven years.

She thought that she looked ordinary, but her boyfriend always said that she was a very beautiful woman.

She had no doubt about this because beauty was in the eye of the beholder! Whether she was beautiful or not had nothing to do with anyone else. The most important thing was that her boyfriend liked her, right?

She and her boyfriend had known each other since their second year of high school. Their relationship had been smooth sailing until they graduated from university and he joined the army.

She always occupied his vacation time. He always said to her,"I love you so much. I really love love you, so I'm afraid that there will be a mutiny.”

When she heard these words, she always pursed her lips and smiled slightly. She deliberately did not respond to his words and deliberately made him a little worried so that he would only have her in his heart and no woman would be able to take advantage of it.

On this day, he finally retired from the army. He called her and asked her to accompany him tonight.

She wasn't surprised to hear him make such a request, but she refused to give him a definite answer. She deliberately found a reason to reject his " special " invitation.

In fact, she had already decided to give her entire life to him tonight.

For this plan, she even went to the department store and bought a set of expensive lingerie and a sexy nightgown. The material of this nightgown was light and elegant, making her graceful figure appear faintly discernible.

According to the counter lady, it was! This nightgown would make her boyfriend love her even more.

These words made her heart feel sweet, and her small mouth was smiling so widely that she could not close it.

After everything was ready, she took a fragrant bubble bath and sprayed some perfume. Then, she put on the lingerie she had just bought and the sexy pajamas. In order not to let others see her inviting outfit, she deliberately put on loose clothes and went out happily, preparing to give her boyfriend a special surprise.

Who knew that the surprise would turn into surprise!

When she used the key her boyfriend gave her to open the door of his apartment and looked inside, she saw him naked and an enchanting and beautiful woman doing the " thing " she had planned to do with him tonight.

Yao Liwen didn't know how a normal woman would react when she encountered such a situation.

Crying? Make a scene? Or should she just go forward and give that hateful man a hard slap?

To be honest, she wanted to do all of these, but for some reason, she did not do a single thing. She only gently said to the man and woman on the bed who were shocked by her appearance,"Sorry to disturb you. I'll leave immediately. You guys continue.”Then, she returned the key he gave her to him and ran away timidly.

She did not know if he had come out to chase her, nor did she know how many passersby she had knocked down.

After leaving the apartment building, she reached out to hail a taxi and said to the driver,"Please find a restaurant to drop me off.”

Yao Liwen really didn't want her parents to fall into a cloud of misery with her. She just wanted to cry alone.

She was like a wounded beast, wanting to quietly lick her wounds in solitude without anyone noticing.

After that simple sentence, she broke down. She could no longer endure the pain of being deceived and betrayed.

It was only then that she let her tears fall. She gritted her teeth and resisted the urge to cry. She sobbed behind the driver's seat and swore to herself that she would never believe in any love myths in her life.

"Miss, we've arrived at the restaurant. Do you want to get off?”the taxi driver said carefully.

"Oh, thank you. How much is it?" Yao Liwen, whose eyes had already turned red from crying, asked sadly.

The driver gave a number, and Yao Liwen quickly took out some money from her handbag to pay the bill. Then, she opened the car door and got out of the car. She looked up at the restaurant's signboard…!! Love Hotel.

Love again! This wasn't what she wanted at all. She quickly turned around and grabbed the taxi window. She said to the driver inside,"Is this the only restaurant left in the Taipei City?”Love was simply a ridiculous joke to her now. She did not want to get close to it.

"Miss, believe me, you will need this restaurant.”The chauffeur said to her with a mysterious look on his face. After saying that, he ignored her and drove the car away.

As she watched the car drive away, Yao Liwen thought to herself," Would she need it? Hah! This was simply a huge joke.

However, she still walked in because she was curious about the last sentence of the enthusiastic driver.

After entering the restaurant, she walked to the counter and took out her ID card to register.

After registering, she took the key that the hotel staff gave her. It was room 701.

"How much hatred did I have in my dream last night? It's like the old tour of Shangyuan, the car is like running water, the horse is like a dragon, the flower moon is the spring breeze.”

Yao Liwen muttered.

Looking up at the night sky, the sparse stars were annoying.

The bright moon was even more dazzling to the heartbroken.

Why was it that her world had changed overnight, but everything in nature was still operating normally?

Why was it that no one could understand her sorrow?

Why was there no one who could resolve the sorrow in her heart?

People said that getting drunk could solve a thousand worries, but she was even more worried when she was drunk.

Yao Liwen was on the balcony with a glass of Brandy in her hand. In ancient times, Li Bai raised his glass to invite the bright moon to drink with him. Today, I, Yao Liwen, also raised my cup to invite Ming Yue, but only I drank alone.”

Was this a blessing from the heavens, or was it a joke from fate? She asked herself.

Could anyone give her a clear answer?

Just as Yao Liwen was drowning in melancholy and sadness, suddenly!!

"Miss upstairs, if you feel that drinking is too lonely, how about I accompany you to drink?" He Dusheng, who had been paying attention to her for a long time, could not help but open his mouth when he heard her laugh so sorrowfully and speak so forlornly, hoping to divert the young lady's attention so that she would not be too immersed in her painful emotions.

However, he had no ill intentions towards her. He was simply showing a little concern to a stranger.

As the saying goes, all men are brothers, let alone cohabiting in the same restaurant. Coupled with the relationship between the upper and lower floors, this kind of fate was not easy to come by, was it not?

Hearing someone respond to her, Yao Liwen couldn't help but look at him." Who are you?”She was drunk and could not see the other party's face clearly.

Who was he? Should he answer this question? Seeing that the woman was so drunk that she couldn't even stand properly, He Dusheng didn't bother to tell her his real name. He just said to her,""I'm just a man who's fated with you.”

When she heard the word " man," Yao Liwen instinctively rejected him." You want to drink with me? Sure!" She threw the cup in her hand down.

With a clang, the sound of a cup shattering could be heard, followed by a series of curses."You drunk woman, do you know that you almost hit my head?”He Dusheng had never thought that his good intentions would not be rewarded.

"Aiya! Just a little bit more? Haha! It seems that I was really drunk, so I didn't hit your head. I'm really sorry.”

So the woman upstairs did it on purpose. "A woman's heart is really the most poisonous!" He Dusheng cursed," Forget it! I can't be bothered with a crazy woman like you!”It didn't matter if she was happy or sad. It had nothing to do with him. Why did he have to get himself into trouble?

He Dusheng turned around and went back to his room. He couldn't be bothered with her anymore. He wanted to take a shower and go to bed to rest.

Yao Liwen watched the noisy " crow " leave and followed her into her room.

At this moment, a few soft sounds suddenly rang out!!

Yao Liwen, who was already half drunk, did not think much of it when she heard the knock on the door. She walked straight to the door, unlocked the door, and opened it.

The person who appeared outside her door was the manager of this restaurant. He had a polite smile on his face as he said to her,"Miss, congratulations."

"Congratulations?" Yao Liwen pulled a long face when she heard someone congratulate her for no reason." Tell me clearly, where did the joy come from?”With her current situation and mood, it was ironic for him to congratulate her.

"Oh! Well, our hotel is holding a very special event these days, which is to draw twelve lucky winners from all the female customers who have stayed here.

These twelve lucky people would not only get a pair of custom-made glass shoes, but they would also become world-class prophecy masters!! Mr. Jin Weilai predicted it."

Yao Liwen didn't know how a normal person would react to such news, and she wasn't interested in knowing either. However, her personal answer was,""Whatever. As long as you're happy."

In her current state of mind, the word 'future' was only bitter and empty to her.

"Alright, then can Miss please stretch out your foot and let the master take your size?”The restaurant manager said very politely, but the smile on his face did not disappear.

"Alright! Why not?" Yao Liwen stretched out her foot generously.

It was not until the chef had finished size her feet that the restaurant manager spoke again,"Thank you for your cooperation, miss. I wish you a good dream.”

Yao Liwen felt amused as she watched the two of them leave.

Sweet dreams? Was that even possible? With her current mood, it was already good enough for her to be able to sleep. How could she dare to ask for a good dream?

Did the manager not know? Was it easy to wake up from a good dream? Sigh!

When Yao Liwen woke up the next day, it was already past noon.

Was it time to go home?

If she didn't want her parents to worry, she really should go back, but…

She was not sure if she could face her parents calmly with her current mood.

Therefore, she decided to continue staying in the hotel.

Yao Liwen didn't want to face the empty hotel room alone, so she decided to dine in the restaurant.

When she stepped into the restaurant and was about to call the waiter to take her order, the manager of the restaurant appeared again. He still smiled politely and said to her,"Miss, I was just about to go up to room 701 to deliver these glass slippers to you.”At this point, the manager placed the pair of glass shoes on the ground and said,"Miss, can you please try on this pair of shoes to see if they fit? If it doesn't fit, we'll ask the master to modify it.”

Yao Liwen, who was not in the mood, saw that he was so sincere and polite. She could not refuse his request, so she obediently stretched out her foot to try on the shoes." It's really a custom-made shoe. The size is moderate, and it's quite comfortable to wear."”

"That's good. Miss, please come with me next.”

"Where are we going?" Yao Liwen didn't agree with this request.

"To see Mr. Jin Weilai! Have you forgotten what I told you last night?”The manager asked in surprise. He really couldn't understand this lady's reaction.

"Oh! I remember now, you once said that I could become a world-class prophet!! Mr. Kim Mirai's prophecy for me, right?”Yao Liwen finally remembered what the manager said last night, but there was still no interest in her eyes.

"Yes, could you please follow me, Miss?”

Because he was too polite and polite, Yao Liwen had no choice but to agree."Alright then!" As soon as he finished speaking, the two of them walked towards their destination one after another.

At this moment, a handsome man brushed past them.

When He Dusheng saw the drunk woman from last night, he couldn't help but call out to her, but he stopped himself when he thought of her attitude last night.

He thought that it was best not to provoke this woman. Otherwise, he did not know what trouble she would cause for him.

Work, work, he mustn't forget his main purpose for coming to Beijing this time.

Other than that, it was better not to meddle in other matters.

That's right! That was it.

Yao Liwen was lying on the big bed in room 701. Her eyes were filled with drunkenness as she thought," Your future partner will be a man born at an ugly age."”This was a preposterous prophecy.

If Mr. Jin's prophecy was true, then her other half would not be the man she had been dating for seven years.

Seven years, what a long time. How many seven years could a person waste?

Thinking of this, Yao Liwen suddenly felt sad. She couldn't help but roll over on the bed and cry.

She cried. She cried that she had wasted seven years to nurture this fruitless relationship.

She cried. She cried that he had heartlessly betrayed the oath between them.

It's hard to find water in the vast sea, but it's hard to find clouds in Wushan Mountain.

He once said that even if there were three thousand weak waters, he would only drink her sweet spring alone. No other woman could break into his heart.

But now, the woman lying in his arms was not her.

Yao Liwen suddenly had the urge to laugh out loud. She also felt extremely disgusted.

She couldn't take it anymore, so she simply got out of bed in the glass shoes that the hotel had given her. She opened the floor-to-ceiling window of the hotel room and ran out to vomit.

Then, like a lunatic, she climbed up the balcony railing and sat on it, her small feet shaking.

It's lonely at the top. Yao Liwen finally understood what he meant. It was a little cold sitting at such a high place.

She couldn't help but shiver. She staggered and wanted to climb down the railing, but the glass shoe on her right foot came loose.

"Ouch!"

There was no sound of glass shoes breaking, but the sound of people screaming in pain. What was going on?

Yao Liwen tried her best to open her misty eyes and looked down!!

"Heavens! Miss, don't move. Don't take things too hard!”He Dusheng was really frightened by her this time.

He saw the drunk woman sitting on the railing of the balcony. He was afraid that she would take things too hard and jump down in front of him. That would not be fun!

"Humph! Who can't take it?"

She had forgotten that she was still sitting on the railing. She shouted at the man downstairs with disdain,"Although I've fallen out of love, I know how to cherish my life. All crows in the world are black. I won't take things too hard for a stinky man!”

He Dusheng raised his eyebrows and looked up at the woman who lived upstairs." Miss, you drank again, didn't you?”

"Wow! You're so awesome!" He could tell that she had been drinking from such a distance. He was really amazing. "Are you also a prophet?”

" I'm not…" He Dusheng suddenly saw that the woman upstairs was leaning out. He couldn't help but shout,""Be careful!"

Shaking, her body that was leaning out swayed back. "Hey! I think your words are contradictory! You told me to be careful, and you said you didn't want me to be careful. Do you want me to be careful or not?”

What a bastard! This woman was so drunk that she couldn't even speak clearly.

Moreover, if this continued, it was hard to guarantee that she would not really fall down like this.

In order to save himself from a tragedy that might happen, He Dusheng resolutely decided…

"Miss, I picked up your glass shoes. Can I help you send them back now?”

Frowning, Yao Liwen suddenly asked an irrelevant question,""Tell me first, do you look good?”

What kind of question was this? It was simply a question that didn't match the horse's mouth!

"Why do you ask?" Even someone as smart as him could not figure out why this woman would suddenly ask him such a baffling question.

"Because not long ago, Mr. Kim Mirai predicted that my future partner would be a very ugly man. Now, you said that you would help me pick up the glass slipper that fell off. In this way, wouldn't I become the Cinderella in the fairy tale, and you would be the high and mighty prince?”

"What does this have to do with the problem we're talking about?”It wasn't that his comprehension was worse than others, but that this woman's drunken words were really difficult to understand.

"Sigh!" Yao Liwen shook her head and said helplessly,""You're really stupid! I can't understand such a simple reason. Talking to you makes me feel very tired!”

Tired? He was the one who was tired, alright? In order to reduce unnecessary trouble, He Dusheng simply answered her,""You have a pair of glass shoes, so you might become the Cinderella in the fairy tale. But don't worry, I will never become the prince in the fairy tale.”

"Well, you're right! Alright then! Since that's the case, I'll allow you to pick up my glass shoes and return them to me.”

He could ignore such an ungrateful woman, but…sigh! Forget it! Just treat it as if he was doing a good deed and saving her life.

"If you want me to return this glass slipper to you, you have to open the door for me first, right? So can you please climb down the railing and open the door for me first?”

"Alright! I'll open the door for you now."

Yao Liwen suddenly jumped down with a loud bang. The man downstairs who had been with her for nearly an hour was terrified.

"I'll go open the door for you! Don't make me wait too long, understand?”

"I know, I know." Sigh! He was really unlucky to have met her for two consecutive nights.

Looking at the glass shoes in his hand, He Dusheng secretly scolded this love restaurant. Why did they have to do such a boring stunt? It made him tired of running around.

Thinking about it, wasn't all this caused by the restaurant?#
