Long Yubei listened to the first few sentences she uttered, and his heart began to ache again.
Suddenly, Shen Congmo thought, "When I was in M country, I confronted her, and she indeed said she didn’t want to abort the child... She said there was no other way... But I was too angry to think clearly at the time..."
Having thought of this, Shen Congmo felt a sudden surge of fear.
"Look, if you had told us about this incident from the beginning, we could have helped you analyze the situation. Perhaps you wouldn’t have married so hastily, and maybe Feng Xi really had no choice but to act the way she did."
After being reminded by them, Shen Congmo felt terrible.
"Last time, I saw her in a supermarket in M country with a man. She must have lost over twenty pounds, living together with that man."
"People have roommates of the opposite sex all the time," Liang He doubted, "Have your brains been eaten by a dog? Maybe he’s not her boyfriend?"
The more one dwells on these matters, the more frightful and unbearable the thoughts become.
Long Yubei then said, "Alright, there’s no point in discussing this further. Let me give her a call to confirm if that guy is really her boyfriend."
"That’s great, hurry up," Liang He urged.
Long Yubei dialed Long Fengxi’s number and put it on speakerphone after it connected. The latest_epɪ_sodes are on_the novel-fire.net
The room fell silent.
Long Fengxi’s voice came through from the other end, "Brother."
"Feng Xi, I’ve heard you have a boyfriend now? Is it true?"
There was a slight pause on the other end, "Who told you?"
"Cong Mo said he saw you overseas."
"Oh." Long Fengxi replied, "He’s not my boyfriend, just a friend."
"You’re living together?"
"Yeah, he takes good care of me. I’m here alone, so we share the apartment. It’s his place, and we look after each other."
Shen Congmo’s heart felt as though it was being sliced into pieces. So he’s not her boyfriend...
"I heard from Cong Mo that you’ve lost a lot of weight. I’ll visit you in a bit."
"Bro, you don’t need to come. I will return next year to see you all," Long Fengxi explained, "I’m really busy with work here, from dawn till dusk. Even if you come, I can’t take leave to be with you. I’m doing fine here; please don’t worry. I’m trying to gain weight now, and I’ll get back to normal soon."
"That’s fine. If it’s time to find a boyfriend, go find one."
After hanging up the phone, Long Yubei looked at Shen Congmo, "You heard that, right? Not her boyfriend."
"I think when you mentioned about going to see her, she responded a bit hastily. Maybe she’s hiding something from you in the foreign country. Long Yubei, once your wrist is healed, you should still go abroad to see her," Gu Lili sighed, "Unless it’s a woman who advocates childfree ideals, usually no one would want to abort their own child with the person they love, right? Cong Mo, you should at least hear her explanation before deciding whether to break up."
Shen Congmo was frantic, recalling the scene when Long Fengxi had flown back from abroad and was waiting for him at his home.
"I heard everything." Long Tianjiao suddenly entered from outside, "I heard your entire conversation."
"How long have you been here?"
"I came when Brother Congmo mentioned getting back together and breaking up with my sister. I figured if I came in, you would stop talking about it. So it turns out that the two of you have gotten back together and split up again. No wonder on the day of your wedding, my sister stood for a long time under the lights of your bridal room and only left with me after the lights were out."
Shen Congmo’s pupils constricted, "What did you say?!"
