That evening, Li Xu and Gu Xiaoya met at a quiet private restaurant in Feng City.
Gu Xiaoya wore a light blue dress, her hair casually pulled back into a ponytail. She looked much more relaxed than usual.
"Congratulations on finally getting rid of that scumbag," Li Xu said with a smile, raising his teacup.
Gu Xiaoya's eyes curved into crescents as she raised her teacup and gently clinked it against his. "Thanks! You have no idea, the day the hospital announced their decision, I felt so light. It was like a huge weight had been lifted off my shoulders."
"I can tell. You're in a much better place now." Li Xu placed a piece of steamed fish on her plate. "What are your plans for the future?"
"I'm just going to focus on work for now." Gu Xiaoya propped her chin on her hand. "I'm not thinking about romance at the moment. I just want to concentrate on my career. Oh, and speaking of careers, your Mao Duddu Eye Drops are really blowing up lately!"
Li Xu asked, "Oh? What have you heard?"
