He wouldn’t deny this; he had always been controlling his heart from leaning towards her. Perhaps he knew that once he truly committed, it would an handing himself over, which is why he remained restrained and cautious.
Seeing his silence, Gu Lili tugged at the corner of her mouth, "This really makes feel like I can’t see a future with you. My sense of security has always been sothing I give myself, but I hope to receive so from you too, to settle my heart."
Long Yubei turned sideways, grasping her hand, his deep eyes slightly restrained, "Lili, I’ve never thought about divorcing you. Marriage is not a child’s play to ; I take you seriously as my wife."
Gu Lili nodded, her tone suddenly changed, "Are you done scrubbing my back or not? Turn around!"
He smiled at her, turned, and pressed against the bathroom tiles while Gu Lili put all her strength into scrubbing him.
"Ah... be gentle..."
Gu Lili almost wanted to scrub a layer off his skin, "Can I get the dirt off if I’m gentle? Don’t move."
...
After finishing the scrub, Gu Lili looked at his reddened back and threw the bath towel at him, "I’m going to eat."
"Wait for ."
"Wait for your hamr."
She walked away without looking back.
Seeing her go downstairs, Chef Chang Tai quickly instructed his people to bring up the breakfast.
"Young Madam, where is the young master?"
"Bring his up too, he’ll be down soon."
Chang Tai nodded, "Alright."
Gu Lili ate her al with her head down as Tang Qingli placed the morning paper on the table.
She held the paper with one hand and sipped congee with a spoon in the other.
When she reached the entertainnt section, Gu Lili’s gaze suddenly fixed on a headline.
The headline read: [Sun Qianqian spotted with Liang He at night, pair suspected of dating!]
After reading the article, just as Long Yubei ca down, she handed him the newspaper, "Liang He and Sun Qianqian are rumored to be dating."
"That’s impossible," Long Yubei took it and glanced over, "It’s clearly Sun Qianqian’s publicity stunt."
"Why are you so sure?"
"After Liang He found out Sun Qianqian slept with a producer, he was disgusted. He’s not the kind of man who can tolerate that, it’s definitely just the woman stirring up publicity. Just wait, Liang He will soon clarify this on Weibo."
He carelessly tossed the paper aside, Long Yubei frowned, "Why does the lower half of my body feel like it’s been broken, it’s too painful."
"I just casually ntioned running fifty laps; why would you be so silly to actually do it... "
"I don’t want to upset you, and I hope this doesn’t beco an indelible knot in your heart."
"It’s already a knot." She reached for a bun and stuffed it into her mouth.
"Don’t you have chopsticks?"
"Eating with hands is more comfortable than with chopsticks. I’ve always grabbed buns and pancakes directly since I was a kid. Fear that I can’t change this habit when it’s just us at ho. If you mind, you might just have to find another wife."
...
Gu Lili finished eating and was about to leave, but Long Yubei didn’t let her, "Where are you going?"
"I’m planning to properly refurbish the comrcial-residential duplex I purchased."
"You’re going to live there?"
She replied, "I’m idle at ho all day, might as well keep busy. When I’m busy, I won’t think about anything else."
"What are you planning to do?"
"I have my own ideas." She changed her shoes, shrugged off his hand, and left.
Long Yubei, in severe leg pain, couldn’t go to the office, and although he thought she would be at ho, who knew...
