"Feng Xi, let’s get back together. If you feel insecure, we can try to date in secret first. We won’t tell anyone. Once you fully trust me and believe in my love for you, we can tell others. Think about it, okay?"
Long Fengxi read the text message over and over again.
He calls her his girlfriend, but he knows very well that until she agrees, there will be unrest in his heart.
She didn’t reply to the message for a single moment, and Shen Congmo watched his phone without looking away.
The always composed him could only feel this anxious when it comes to her.
Time ticked away, and after about forty-three minutes, he finally received her reply.
The content was succinct.
"We can get back together, but just like you said, without my permission, you can’t tell anyone we are back together. Otherwise..."
Shen Congmo looked at this line of text, the thrill in his heart was uncontrollable, as if it would grow wings and burst from his body to fly into the sky.
He was overwhelmed for a long time.
Long Yubei returned home at noon, and before he even reached the gate, he saw Shen Congmo pacing back and forth by himself at the front door.
He drove up, rolled down the window, and asked, "What are you doing standing here?"
Shen Congmo’s lips curled into a smile, his eyes twinkling, he called out, "Beibei..."
Long Yubei felt goosebumps all over, "Don’t call me like that, I’ll kill you."
Shen Congmo followed his car into the garage.
As soon as Long Yubei got out of the car, Shen Congmo embraced him in a swift move.
Long Yubei stared at him dumbfounded, then kicked him away, "Are you freaking crazy? If you want to hug a man, go find Liang He, he doesn’t have a girlfriend, my wife is at home!"
"Happy? Did you finally realize that you actually like men?"
"Get lost." He stuffed his hands in his pockets, telling Long Yubei enthusiastically, "I’m thinking about getting married."
Long Yubei paused, looking at him in astonishment, "Got a girlfriend?"
"Can’t I have this thought without a girlfriend?"
"Of course you can, but you don’t even have a woman, who the hell are you going to marry?" Long Yubei changed the subject and asked again, "Completely given up on Feng Xi?"
"What’s she, Long Fengxi, anyway." He huffed lightly, "Girls who want to be with me are enough to circle the Earth, why should I waste my time on her? I’m looking for my new spring."
Long Yubei patted his shoulder, "Suddenly had this realization, what triggered it?"
"Seeing you got married, I think it’s nice to find a pleasing woman to live with."
"Why do I find it hard to believe you’re someone who can settle easily?" He looked at Shen Congmo seriously, "I know you too well."
"What? You’re allowed to just find any woman to marry but not me?" Shen Congmo pointed out his hypocrisy, "I always thought you’d also wait for your true love before getting married, but what happened? Didn’t you also rush into marriage with Gu Li in such a short time?"
"To tell you the truth, I never thought I’d be with her for long, I don’t know how long this loveless marriage can last." The most update n0vels are published on NovelHub(.)net
"Uh..." Shen Congmo glanced towards Gu Lili, who was standing not too far behind Long Yubei, and hurriedly explained, "Which married couple can know how long their marriage will last? Even those who are deeply in love might fall apart shortly. Lili, don’t misunderstand Yu Bei’s words."
Long Yubei turned sharply, only then did he see Gu Lili standing there, watching the two of them with a calm expression.
