"Xingzhou, what are you looking at? I'm trying to talk serious business here," Song Xiao said, while pulling out a pack of cigarettes.
A Russian brand, known for its strong kick after smoking.
He expertly bit a cigarette and pulled one out, offering it to Lu Xingzhou.
"I quit," Lu Xingzhou responded indifferently.
Song Xiao was as if he'd heard something utterly incredible.
He and Lu Xingzhou had been close since childhood, doing almost everything in sync.
Take smoking, for example—they picked it up in their first year of high school.
While Xingzhou wasn't heavily addicted, Song Xiao had never seen him show any intention of quitting over the years.
"Why quit all of a sudden?"
"She doesn't like it," Lu Xingzhou's voice was low, his heart uncomfortably blocked.
He was enduring it all.
He was well aware of his relationship with Jiang Man; for now, he could still constrain her with the promise of a one-year marriage.
But what about after that?
