"How long can a relationship last if there’s no love for each other? Without love, one won’t truly care." Shen Congmo whispered in her ear, "Just the thought of you doing the things we used to love doing with him hurts me more than death..."
Long Fengxi pursed her lips and remained silent, her face buried in the blanket without saying a word.
Shen Congmo held her in his arms, covering her with the blanket, "You’re not going anywhere tonight."
After saying that, he made a phone call to Gu Lili.
Long Fengxi felt so tired in her heart; she closed her eyes and didn’t want to say another word to him.
The room quieted down, and after a while, Shen Congmo looked at the person in his arms, who had fallen asleep.
He sighed, wondering what to do with her.
Shen Congmo’s hand gently reached into her shirt pocket and felt her mobile phone.
He added her communication software account back.
He saw that she had Weibo on her phone, and casually clicked on it, only to be surprised by the Weibo username he saw.
She didn’t use Weibo before.
This Weibo account only followed Liang He and Long Tianjiao.
He scrolled through the Weibo posts she had made.
Looking from top to bottom.
[Yes, I still love him, but what of it? We are no longer the people who can stand together. I have already begun my new life.]
[I want to return home. My feelings are mixed with excitement and so many emotions interwoven together.]
[Today is a particularly meaningful day, it signifies that I can hold beautiful fantasies about the future. Thank you to my dear who has always been with me, giving me warmth and accommodation.]
[Sometimes, even the most bone-deep love can’t compare to a word of encouragement. I will get better, and live well.]
[I dreamt of my eighteenth birthday. Waking up, I found my pillow was wet...]
[All that should be forgotten, and all that shouldn’t, I want to forget them all.]
He read all the way to the last post.
Shen Congmo’s mood finally settled down.
He put the phone back in her pocket, then used his own phone to download the Weibo app, registered an account, and followed her account.
That alone was enough to fill him with joy.
Shen Congmo held her and slept through the night.
The next morning, when Long Fengxi woke up, she found breakfast and a note on the bedside table.
[I love you, my big treasure. Good morning.]
Long Fengxi threw the note into the trash can, then went to Gu Lili’s place.
Gu Lili was also eating breakfast, and upon seeing her enter, asked, "Have you eaten?"
"Yes." Orıginal content can be found at noᴠelfire.net
"Shen Congmo called me last night saying you were with her, what... what happened?"
"It’s my fault, I went to the villa he bought last night, and ran into him when I came out."
Gu Lili asked tentatively, "Did you and him..."
"Sister-in-law, it’s not what you think. We didn’t do anything."
Gu Lili nodded, "What are you thinking? I saw the news, he’s divorced and gave Jin Miaomiao a billion in alimony."
"It’s none of my business. I have no plans to be with him; I have a boyfriend now, and from today, I’ve decided to hire a bodyguard whenever I go out."
"I trust you’ll handle your relationship with him well," Gu Lili said, lowering her head to sip porridge, "I know everything that happened between you two clearly, though it’s all in the past, I still want to say a few words, Feng Xi. Back then, you aborted your child without consulting him, and as your sister-in-law, I think it was wrong of you not to discuss it with him. You could have told him the reason, and not telling him was your fault. If you had spoken up then, I believe the outcome might have been different. You’ve gotten to where you are today not because Cong Mo started it, but because you did. His impulsive marriage was also because of you. I guess he must have hoped that you would object to the wedding that day. Loving someone is like that, always doing some incomprehensible stupid things and regretting them afterwards. A billion—it’s such a waste to just give that much money to Jin Miaomiao."
