When Sang Xia bumps into her ex-boyfriend, he says furiously, “Sang Xia, there are so many women in the world. Call me a dog if I still like you!”

She turns around without any hesitation and suddenly, he barks from behind her.

Someone asks, “Master Zhan, how does Sister-in-law deserve your love so shamelessly?”
