"Momo."
Ye Zhan gripped his phone tighter and tighter.
"Hmm."
Momo could hear the emotion in his voice, and her heart trembled. She didn’t continue speaking.
A soft smile hung on her face.
"I love you."
Ye Zhan’s sudden confession caught Momo’s ear unexpectedly.
Like a strong current, it hit her heart at once.
The rising mist quickly swept over her eyes, softly smiling, moistening her eyes.
Her smile became even more radiant, like the most beautiful flower blooming after the rain, tugging at the viewer’s heartstrings.
Later, Momo often thought about Ye Zhan’s confession today.
With his words "Momo," "I love you," she supported her longing.
"I didn’t mean to hide it from you, just go home and wait for me to find you."
Ye Zhan’s voice returned to calm, a deep and magnetic sound.
It gave people an inexplicable sense of security.
Momo didn’t doubt him.
She laughed and said, "Okay, I’ll wait for you. My parents prepared my dowry back at my eighteenth birthday. Ye Zhan, you just need to e to G City to marry me, no need for anything else."
"Wouldn’t that make me too blessed?"
Ye Zhan also laughed, his laughter very pleasant to hear.
Momo listened to his voice, reluctant to hang up the phone.
"I don’t know if you’re blessed, but as long as I feel happy, that’s enough. I’m almost at the airport; I’ll text you when I get home."
"Alright."
Ye Zhan understood Momo’s thoughts.
"Then, you hang up first."
"You hang up first."
Momo responded with "Alright," and decisively pressed the hang-up button.
Inside the car, it suddenly became quiet.
The two bodyguards in the front didn’t turn around nor did they speak to disturb Momo.
Even Feng Yize was unusually quiet.
He didn’t speak.
Momo quietly calmed her emotions, slowly putting her phone back into her bag.
Ye Zhan’s words "I love you" still echoed in her ears.
"Yi Ze, thank you."
She suddenly turned to Feng Yize to express her gratitude.
Feng Yize blinked in confusion, taking a few seconds before responding, "Why are you thanking me, sis?"
He was sitting right next to Momo.
He had heard most of her conversation with Ye Zhan.
Momo hadn’t intentionally covered the phone with one hand, and Ye Zhan’s confession to Momo was clear to him.
Feng Yize was still deeply moved by their love.
Unsure why Momo was thanking him.
Momo looked at his dazed expression, finding it particularly amusing, and laughed unrestrainedly.
"Your expression just now was so silly."
"Really?"
Feng Yize touched his handsome face with his hands, blinking innocently.
This made Momo feel even more unable to look directly at him.
"Thank you for your hard work in going to L City to explain so much to me." She restrained her laughter, her soft voice filled with the sweetness of love.
"If it weren’t for you, Ye Zhan and I might have missed each other."
"No way."
Feng Yize finally broke out of his daze.
With a bright smile, he said, "Even without me, you and my brother are destined to be together. It’s fate. But my brother is such a dull person, he doesn’t like to talk about anything, and he won’t brag about himself."
He got more excited as he spoke, "Sister, you believe me now, right? My brother is the best man in the world, except for me."
"How do you surpass him?"
Momo held back her laughter.
"Of course, in every aspect."
Feng Yize saw Momo trying hard to hold back her laughter and became more arrogant, "Just in eloquence alone, I leave him far behind."
"..."
Momo’s shoulders shook slightly.
"In terms of looks, I’m more handsome than my brother."
Momo turned to look out of the window.
Listening to Feng Yize continue to boast, "We’ve tested, my IQ is higher than my brother’s, and my emotional intelligence is even higher."
"In terms of being gentle and caring, my brother can’t pare to me."
"And..."
For the rest of the journey, Momo only heard Feng Yize listing all the ways he’s better than Ye Zhan.
By the end, any last trace of sadness in her heart was dispelled by him.
While entering the security check, Momo said to Feng Yize, who was still waiting for praise, "Yi Ze, you’re better than Ye Zhan."
"Sis, I knew you wouldn’t go against your feelings and just say he’s good because you like him."
"But in my eyes, Ye Zhan is the best, unrivaled."
She was pleased to see Feng Yize’s smile freeze on his handsome face.
Momo chuckled softly and left with the two bodyguards, feeling happy.
Leaving Feng Yize behind feeling depressed: biased!
——
On the plane back, Momo kept thinking about Ye Zhan.
Time flew by amidst longing.
As she just replayed all their moments from meeting to now in her mind, the plane was about to land.
Momo suddenly felt the time she’d spent with Ye Zhan was too short.
Including the few days he stayed at Mo’s house, it was still so brief.
After getting off the plane, Ji Anyun’s call came again.
It was still from the same number as the afternoon.
Previously, Momo had blacklisted her number, but now she had a new number.
Momo didn’t block her this time.
Ji Anyun must’ve waited in the hospital for a long time, not seeing her, unwillingly calling again.
Momo looked at the phone number on the screen, a mocking smile spreading from her lips.
"Hello!"
She spoke lazily.
"Miss Mo, I’ve been waiting for you. Did you really leave?"
Ji Anyun heard the broadcast here and her tone immediately rose.
"Yeah, I went back."
Momo listened to Ji Anyun’s restrained angry voice and instead laughed lightly.
