Chapter 2 - Flashback

Six years ago, she was in a relationship with Liu Qiang.

Liu Qiang was from an influential family and his family's business was one of the biggest in Beijing. He was handsome, he was also one of those guys that every girl dreamt of dating.

Liu Qiang and Zhang Lihua met when they where in high school. They had bumped into each other in the library and he helped Lihua pick up her books. After that day, they became good friends. He defended her when she was bullied, bought her snacks when she was hungry, kept her company when she was bored and helped her with her difficult assignments. She was the envy of every girl in school.

She started developing feelings for him slowly and she felt he also had feelings for her. She confessed to him and he asked her to date him. That was how their relationship started. It was a wonderful feeling she felt. She told her best friends Yang Huan and Zhao Biyu about her relationship with Liu Qiang. Little did she know that she had made a very big mistake.

Zhao Biyu had a crush on Liu Qiang and when she heard that Lihua was dating him, she vowed to do everything within her power to get him back.

Zhang Lihua worked hard to get into the same university as Liu Qiang but she couldn't make it. It was only Zhao Biyu that managed to get into the same university with him. Yang Huan and Zhang Lihua went to the same university.

After spending four years in the university studying modeling and fashion designing, she graduated and realized that Liu Qiang had traveled to the states to further his education. She was sad. When she heard that he would soon be coming back, she was so happy.

On the day he returned, she personally went to pick him up from the airport and she saw Zhao Biyu with him. She assumed that they met on the plane because Zhao Biyu had also traveled to the states to further her education.

The next day, she visited Liu Qiang in his apartment and he gave her the shocking news that he was already engaged to her best friend Zhao Biyu and they had been planning their marriage from the states.

She felt betrayed and like a toy that was been used. She loved Liu Qiang with her whole heart, she was ready to do anything for him. She cried her eyes out that day. She was sick for days and Yuan Huan took care of her.

After her experience with Liu Qiang, she didn't get into any relationship and she had problems with trusting men.
