"I can’t, I don’t want to go back to being boyfriend and girlfriend, it’s too tiring."
"Alright, let’s maintain this relationship for now, and whether to keep it or change it in the future will be up to you," Shen Congmo said softly, "If you had told me the truth from the start, we would never have gone through all this. No matter what happens in the future, I hope we can learn to trust each other."
Long Fengxi knew she had issues, and she also knew that what happened today wasn’t just Shen Congmo’s fault.
So she stopped talking.
"You really are my nemesis."
"Shouldn’t I be the one saying that?" Long Fengxi retorted, "Have you been spying on me?"
"If I hadn’t spied on you, do you think I could have learned so quickly that you wanted to meet someone online?" This was like a thorn in Shen Congmo’s heart recently, but he knew he couldn’t blame her, because she was single! She was free to do whatever she wanted.
"Cancel the surveillance, and before we end the physical relationship, I won’t get into a real relationship with any other man."
"Okay," Shen Congmo agreed.
"Also, this matter should only be known between you and me, no one else should know."
That night, Long Fengxi didn’t leave. She lay awake until 3:30 in the morning, thinking over many things.
In the end, she came to a realization, and her mind became completely clear.
Shen Congmo, to her, was a man she didn’t want to get close to, avoiding him only because she feared getting hurt again.
But at the same time, if it was just about finding a bed partner, there truly was no more suitable person than Shen Congmo.
Even though she cursed herself as being weak, she didn’t want to deny that if he could hurt her, it was ultimately because she loved him, giving him the right to do so.
How could someone she didn’t care about have the ability to hurt her?
Lu Youyuan had made a mistake of having a one-night stand during a relationship, which was an insincerity to the relationship, shattering her ideals about two people without love being together.
No matter the reason, she could not accept it.
Before two people get together, it doesn’t matter how many women you’ve dated or how many one-night stands you’ve had, but after establishing a relationship or marriage, such actions would be considered betrayal.
Therefore, a single person is free.
Without the bonds of a relationship, there’s no need to worry about this and that.
After her first break-up with Shen Congmo, Long Fengxi remained single for several years, not dating anyone else because she still believed in waiting for love. Nᴇw ɴovel chaptᴇrs are published on novel⦿fire.net
Now, she changed her attitude towards life because she felt that love and marriage would ultimately be overwhelmed by time.
If they are destined to be together, there’s no escape.
She didn’t know what the future held, but she wanted to wholeheartedly love and embrace life.
"Can I ask you a question?"
She knew he wasn’t asleep either.
"Why don’t you find another woman?"
"I did, didn’t I? Jin Miaomiao," he replied, "Lu Youyuan’s affair doesn’t count; I believe it wasn’t your impulse. In such impulsive situations, you meeting someone online and me losing my mind and getting married, we can consider ourselves even. But, let there not be a next time; that’s an absolute order."
"You..." Long Fengxi hesitated, "Why didn’t you have a relationship with Jin Miaomiao? She was your wife at that time, even if you did, it would have been justified, and no one would have blamed you."
