Although Tang Yuxiu did not explicitly say he liked her, Nie Rong was still very pleased. In her view, this was an admission from another angle that he liked her.
She knew it. She was so charming, not inferior to Gu Yan or any other woman. How could she not win Tang Yuxiu’s favor?
It turns out he liked her all along; he just hadn’t said it.
"Yu Xiu, I love you," she said tenderly.
Those three sentintal words sounded to Tang Yuxiu as if they were coming from a distant place, making it sowhat dreamlike.
How could she say she loved him?
Did he mishear her?
Her lips moved closer again, and Tang Yuxiu did not react, allowing her to kiss him.
Her hand gradually touched his chest, slipping inside his clothes, yet he didn’t feel the usual impulse.
Tang Yuxiu was puzzled. Clearly, she ca onto him, so why didn’t he feel the uncontrollable urge he did before?
Was it because he wasn’t being proactive?
He thought about it, believing that must be it, and suddenly turned over. Their positions changed, with him on top and Nie Rong underneath.
Nie Rong looked deeply at him. "Yu Xiu, let be your woman, okay?" Tang Yuxiu’s eyes beca even more deep and elusive. Even though he couldn’t clearly see the person in front of him, he instinctively thought it was the one in his mind.
He said, "Alright. Do you know how long I’ve been waiting for this mont?"
Upon hearing this, Nie Rong was filled with unspeakable joy. "I’m sorry, Yu Xiu. It was my fault for not expressing sooner. If I’d known you also liked , I would have co to your side earlier."
In his mory, she never said such pleasant words, which pleased Tang Yuxiu greatly.
"Yes, I like you. Damn it, I just realized I’m madly in love with you, Gu Yan, forgive ."
Originally, hearing the earlier words, Nie Rong almost rejoiced to the point of bursting, but the na Gu Yan was like a cold bucket of water, thoroughly drenching her.
He was calling Gu Yan’s na!
That is to say, he didn’t push her away and still held her down, only because he mistook her for Gu Yan!
The gentleness to her, the affection towards her, were all intended for Gu Yan!
How could this be! This is impossible!
She looked at his eyes in panic, "Yu Xiu, look carefully at who I am. What did you just call ?"
Tang Yuxiu stared at her, unable to see her face clearly, just sensing that she was the one his heart yearned for.
"Gu Yan, it was my fault before, not considering your feelings. Forgive , I’ll be good to you."
Saying that, Tang Yuxiu lowered his head and kissed her lips.
Nie Rong’s heart was so joyful, only to be completely extinguished by the cold water. It turned out it was because of Gu Yan she had the closeness she always longed for!
Why should it be that Gu Yan? What’s so good about her!
Tang Yuxiu liked her! He actually liked her!
She closed her eyes sadly, tears sliding from the corners of her eyes.
Tang Yuxiu sensed this tear, quickly released her, a sense of unprecedented pain and panic in his eyes, "Gu Yan, don’t cry. If you’re unwilling, I won’t touch you again."
Nie Rong felt a pain in her heart; the man who always seed so high and proud actually apologized and compromised for a Gu Yan!
She was so jealous, so unwilling!
Her heart sank a bit, suddenly wrapping her arms around his neck, "Yu Xiu, I’m not unwilling. I am willing."
Hearing her say that she was willing, Tang Yuxiu’s eyes lit up but he still restrained himself, "Don’t overthink this, I’m very tired, let’s just sleep."
In Tang Yuxiu’s subconscious, Gu Yan would never truly agree to such a request.
Nie Rong tightened her arms around his neck, "Yu Xiu, I’m truly willing!"
Yes, as Nie Rong, she desperately wanted Tang Yuxiu to have sothing with her, even if he mistook her for soone else. As long as sothing happened, she would have an advantage.
She was now even more eager for sothing to happen with him. Otherwise, she wouldn’t have any strong cards in her hand.
Who would have thought that Tang Yuxiu would rely comfort her, "You don’t need to cater to deliberately, I can still wait, good girl, sleep."
Who would have thought that one day, the proud Tang Yuxiu would say such things?
If he hadn’t been drunk today, if he hadn’t mistaken her for Gu Yan, she would never in her life hear him say such words or see him so restrained for soone.
Nie Rong’s jealousy towards Gu Yan in her heart was uncontrollable.
Tang Yuxiu turned over and lay beside her, holding her, and Nie Rong, unwilling to give up, once again climbed onto him and kissed his lips, "Yu Xiu, don’t refuse . I sincerely want to be your woman."
Tang Yuxiu’s eyes darkened. After restraining himself for a while, he suddenly turned over and pressed the woman beneath him again, "Gu Yan, this is what you wanted."
Saying that, he kissed her lips heavily, and Nie Rong responded passionately.
The night was still long; the sumr night carried so heat, yet also had a touch of coolness.
Lixin Villa.
Gu Yan only let You Shuyang drop her off at the bus stop, and then walked back alone.
Upon returning, as expected, the entire villa was dark, and she was the only one there.
```
She went upstairs to take a shower, then ca down to wash the clothes, seeing the cake on the coffee table. She didn’t know when Tang Yuxiu would be back, whether he would notice it, or take a taste of it.
Recalling the events at the banquet, she blinked her slightly sore eyes and went upstairs.
Lying on the bed, tossing and turning, she couldn’t fall asleep. She checked the ti, it was past eleven, and she didn’t know if the banquet was over.
She simply lay on her side, staring blankly at the shadow of the trees outside the window.
As ti ticked by, when she next checked the ti, it was already past one. The banquet must have ended by now, yet he still hadn’t returned.
Was it too much social engagent, too much drinking?
Or did he return to the Tang Family’s old residence?
Deep into the night, Gu Yan still wasn’t sleepy, holding the quilt, her thoughts wandered far.
She didn’t know what Tang Yuxiu was doing now, nor whom he was with.
Recalling what she heard at the banquet, the news of Tang Yuxiu’s engagent to Nie Rong made her feel very uncomfortable.
Was he very happy? Nie Rong was certainly very happy.
Won often see through other won best. No matter how much she tried to hide it, Tang Yuxiu’s gaze couldn’t escape the eyes of another woman who liked him.
If they got engaged, she would go from being a mistress to a third party.
A third party is often more unbearable than a mistress.
Tang Yuxiu, why won’t you let go!
The innate flaws of n, even he is no exception.
Gu Yan mocked herself in her heart.
In the vast villa, only in the master bedroom was her lone breathing, solitary and silent.
Perhaps this was just the beginning. In the future, she would have more days like this, returning to a life alone, waiting for those rare tis when Tang Yuxiu thought of her or when things didn’t go well with Nie Rong, when he wasn’t satisfied, he would co to see her here.
How was this different from the ancient harem waiting for the emperor’s favor!
A life like this lacked any self-respect and joy.
The sadness was hers alone.
Ti continued to pass, two o’clock turned to three.
Gu Yan didn’t even know when she fell asleep, her eyes closed as they were open.
In her heart, she knew very well, Tang Yuxiu hadn’t co back all night, and she knew, he must be with Nie Rong.
This kind of thing, there’s nothing to think about, nothing to guess.
Today’s announcent of the engagent, how could nothing happen?
Even in her sleep, Gu Yan wore a bitter smile.
The morning sunlight scattered in Shengshi’s presidential suite, on the soft big bed, a man and a woman embraced in sleep, showing smooth arms.
Tang Yuxiu furrowed his brows, his head aching with a hangover.
He slowly opened his eyes, and his sight fell on the unfamiliar room arrangent, this was not his room.
The person in his arms moved, his body stiffened, the scent at his nose wasn’t the familiar fragrance of ho shower gel, instead, it had a perfu sll.
He looked down, it was a face that wasn’t entirely unfamiliar, but definitely not the person he had imagined!
A trace of disgust flashed in his eyes, he suddenly pushed the person away, quickly lifted the quilt to get up, and picked up his clothes from the floor, not caring about any obsessive-compulsive cleanliness, just putting them on for the mont.
Nie Rong was originally sleeping soundly, suddenly pushed away forcefully, her body rolled a few tis on the bed, almost falling off.
She opened her eyes, not reacting at first, but seeing Tang Yuxiu by the bed dressing with a somber face, the mories of last night ca back in an instant.
She seed to realize sothing, clutching the quilt with her exposed hands to cover her body, she bit her lip, looking pitiable.
"Yu Xiu..."
Tang Yuxiu finished dressing, his eyes looked coldly at Nie Rong, without a trace of emotion, "Miss Nie, why are you in my bed after I got drunk!"
He drank too much, had no recollection of last night’s events, naturally didn’t know what happened after he got drunk, or even how he got to this room.
Nie Rong looked aggrieved, "Last night you fell asleep on the table, I was worried you’d be uncomfortable and catch a cold, so I had soone get this room for you and brought you here. I originally planned to leave after you had a good sleep, but you..."
Nie Rong paused here, looking like she was at a loss for words.
"What did I do?" Tang Yuxiu pressed.
Nie Rong lowered her head, her cheeks reddening at the right ti, "You might have drunk too much, didn’t know what you were doing, held and wouldn’t let go, and then... and then..."
She hung her head lower, even without her saying the rest, Tang Yuxiu knew what it was.
She said he was drunk, wouldn’t let her leave, even ended up in bed with her, Tang Yuxiu found it sowhat amusing.
"Miss Nie, even if I got drunk last night, I know my temperant; my cleanliness is inherent, not just anyone can get close. No matter how blackout drunk, I despise anyone approaching."
The implication being, what Nie Rong claid, to him, wasn’t believable at all!
Nie Rong suddenly raised her head, looking at him sadly and embarrassedly, "Do you think I would lie?"
