I was stunned, looking at Jin Yun in surprise.
Jin Yun looked at me and chuckled, "Xiao Yuan, I actually always thought Mr. Feng was quite lonely."
I paused, lowering my gaze. "Is that so?"
Jin Yun nodded. "I think he's the kind of person who has gotten used to loneliness; even when there are many people around him, he still feels alone."
I blinked. "You seem to understand him well."
Jin Yun smiled lightly. "I've known him for many years; I guess we can be considered old friends."
I was taken aback and looked up at her.
Jin Yun smiled again. "Xiao Yuan, I can tell that Mr. Feng really likes you."
I lowered my gaze and remained silent.
Jin Yun sighed. "Xiao Yuan, you mustn't let Mr. Feng down."
I smiled slightly. "I know."
That evening, I went home with Jin Yun.
On the way, Jin Yun asked me, "Xiao Yuan, will you marry Mr. Feng?"
I was startled and shook my head. "No."
Jin Yun frowned. "Why not?"
I chuckled lightly. "He and I are not on the same path."
Jin Yun paused and fell silent.
Feng Hongyang was on a business trip for half a month, and I stayed at school for the same duration.
Every day, aside from attending classes, I spent my time in the library reading books.
This weekend, Jin Yun invited me out to have some fun.
I agreed.
Jin Yun took me to a high-end hotel in the city center to attend her brother's wedding.
The bride was a friend of Jin Yun's, and her friend wanted to matchmake the bride's cousin with Feng Hongyang, so they invited us.
Jin Yun and I sat in the VIP Lounge, where she told me that the bride had tried to matchmake her cousin with Feng Hongyang but it ended up failing.
As the best man, Feng Hongyang was very busy today, but he still made time to find me and took some photos with me.
Jin Yun looked at me and smiled, asking, "Mr. Feng really cares about you."
I chuckled, "It's okay."
Jin Yun looked at me and blinked, "Xiao Yuan, what do you think of Mr. Feng?"
I paused and looked up at her, "What do you mean by 'what do I think'?"
Jin Yun laughed lightly, "I mean how he treats you."
I lowered my gaze, thought for a moment, and replied, "He's quite nice to me."
"Just quite nice?" Jin Yun frowned, "Don't you have any other feelings?"
I shook my head, "No other feelings."
Jin Yun sighed, "I thought Mr. Feng would pursue you."
I smiled slightly, "He won't pursue me."
Jin Yun paused and looked at me, "Why not?"
I lowered my gaze and remained silent.
Jin Yun didn't ask further.
...
After the wedding, Jin Yun suggested going to a climbing gym.
I agreed.
Jin Yun and I arrived at the climbing gym, changed into our gear, and started climbing.
Jin Yun was timid, so she was guided by the professional Xiao Ding.
I didn't have Xiao Ding guiding me, but my climbing skills were excellent; I climbed freely on the wall like a monkey.
Feng Hongyang watched me from below with intense eyes.
You Xinyi walked over, looked at Feng Hongyang, and smiled, "Hongyang, what are you looking at?"
Feng Hongyang withdrew his gaze and turned to You Xinyi, replying lightly, "Nothing."
You Xinyi chuckled, "Your gaze towards Miss Jiang is quite different."
Feng Hongyang paused and lowered his gaze, "Is it?"
You Xinyi nodded, "Yeah, it seems like you really like her."
Feng Hongyang smiled slightly, "I like everyone."
You Xinyi stared at Feng Hongyang with deep eyes, "Hongyang, you've changed a lot."
Feng Hongyang smiled back, "People change."
You Xinyi laughed softly, "Yes, so you've changed too."
Feng Hongyang looked at her, saying nothing.
You Xinyi sighed, "Hongyang, I just realized that you were so good to me before because you loved me."
Feng Hongyang narrowed his eyes, "What do you want to say?"
You Xinyi lowered her gaze, "If I turn back now, would you still accept me?"
Feng Hongyang sneered, "What do you think?"
You Xinyi looked up at him, "I don't know."
Feng Hongyang stared at her, word by word, "I will not accept you."
You Xinyi froze, staring blankly at Feng Hongyang.
Feng Hongyang said expressionlessly, "You Xinyi, it's over between us."
You Xinyi's eyes turned red, "But Hongyang, I regret it."
Feng Hongyang lowered his gaze, "There is no such thing as regret medicine in this world."
You Xinyi let her tears fall, "Hongyang, I really regret it."
Feng Hongyang looked at her coldly, "Your regret has nothing to do with me."
You Xinyi froze again, staring blankly at Feng Hongyang.
Feng Hongyang fixed his gaze on her, "You Xinyi, we are already in the past; I have a girlfriend now."
You Xinyi cried even harder, "But do you love her?"
Feng Hongyang paused and said nothing.
You Xinyi looked at him and sneered, "You don't love her; you're just with her for the novelty."
Feng Hongyang narrowed his eyes, "How do you know I don't love her?"
You Xinyi was taken aback, staring blankly at Feng Hongyang.
Feng Hongyang stared at her, "You Xinyi, I'm not you."
You Xinyi was stunned, staring blankly at Feng Hongyang.
Feng Hongyang said expressionlessly, "Don't use your thinking to speculate about me."
You Xinyi's face turned pale, trembling all over.
Feng Hongyang looked at her and smiled slightly, "You Xinyi, just live well with your husband; don't interfere in my matters."
You Xinyi bit her lip and said nothing.
Feng Hongyang turned and left.
...
In the evening, Jin Yun and I returned to the hotel together.
On the way, Jin Yun told me that this morning she ran into her future brother-in-law Liu Hongbo at the door of her room.
I smiled and asked, "And then?"
Jin Yun's cheeks flushed: "I chatted with him for a while."
I paused and looked at her: "What did you talk about?"
Jin Yun blinked: "Just some casual conversation."
I stared at her in silence.
Jin Yun smiled and said, "Actually, I envy him a bit."
I was taken aback and frowned: "What do you envy him for?"
Jin Yun lowered her gaze and whispered, "I envy him for having a good wife."
I fell silent.
Jin Yun looked at me and blinked: "Xiao Yuan, you will be happy too."
I smiled slightly: "Thank you."
...
Back at the hotel, Feng Hongyang was waiting for me in the room.
I entered the room, looked at him, and smiled: "What brings you here?"
Feng Hongyang looked at me and smiled back: "I missed you."
I was startled, my cheeks slightly flushed: "Smooth talker."
Feng Hongyang embraced me and kissed my lips: "Xiao Yuan, I missed you."
I wrapped my arms around his neck and responded to him.
We kissed for a long time before reluctantly parting.
Feng Hongyang looked at me with intense eyes: "Xiao Yuan, don't leave tonight."
I was taken aback and lowered my gaze: "No way."
Feng Hongyang frowned: "Why not?"
I looked at him and said softly: "I'm afraid of getting pregnant."
Feng Hongyang paused and held me tightly: "Don't worry, I'll take precautions."
I looked up at him: "Really?"
Feng Hongyang nodded: "Yeah."
I smiled slightly: "Okay."
Feng Hongyang gazed at me with deep eyes.
My heart raced and my breath became erratic under his gaze.
Feng Hongyang slowly lowered his head and kissed my lips.
I closed my eyes and responded to him.
...
In the evening, I had dinner with Feng Hongyang.
We sat by the floor-to-ceiling window of the restaurant, overlooking the entire city.
Feng Hongyang looked at me and smiled, "Xiao Yuan, do you like it here?"
I nodded, "I do."
Feng Hongyang gazed at me with gentle eyes, "Then I'll bring you here often in the future."
I was taken aback and smiled, "Sure."
Feng Hongyang looked at me and asked, "What do you want to eat?"
I thought for a moment and replied, "I want to eat steak."
Feng Hongyang smiled, "Alright, I'll order it for you."
He called the waiter and ordered a steak for me.
I looked at him and smiled, "Feng Hongyang, thank you."
Feng Hongyang was surprised and looked up at me, "Thank me for what?"
I smiled softly, "Thank you for being so good to me."
Feng Hongyang stared at me with intense eyes, "Because you are my woman."
I was taken aback, lowered my gaze, and fell silent.
Feng Hongyang looked at me and smiled, "Xiao Yuan, remember this: no matter what happens, you have me."
I raised my head to look at him, my eyes slightly moist.
Feng Hongyang rubbed my head and laughed, "Silly girl, why are you crying?"
I sniffled and replied with a smile, "I'm not crying."
Feng Hongyang looked at me with a doting expression, "Okay, you're not crying."
I nodded with a smile.
Feng Hongyang looked at me and smiled again, "Xiao Yuan, do you know what I like most about you?"
I was taken aback and looked up at him, "What?"
Feng Hongyang stared at me and said with a smile, "You are like the wild grass in the city."
I was stunned and frowned, "What do you mean?"
Feng Hongyang smiled, "Even though you live at the bottom, you still grow tenaciously and are not defeated by anyone."
I was taken aback, looking at him.
Feng Hongyang gazed at me, smiling, "Xiao Yuan, you are as resilient as wild grass."
I lowered my gaze and chuckled softly, "Maybe."
Feng Hongyang stared at me, his eyes deep, "Xiao Yuan, I hope you always maintain this resilience."
I looked up at him and smiled, "I will."
Feng Hongyang looked at me and smiled, "I will protect you too."
I was startled, looking at him with warmth in my heart.
Feng Hongyang gazed at me gently.
I felt my face flush under his gaze and lowered my head.
Feng Hongyang chuckled and picked up his knife and fork to cut the steak.
I looked up at him and whispered, "Feng Hongyang, why are you so good to me?"
Feng Hongyang looked up at me and smiled, "Because you are worth it."
I was taken aback, lowering my gaze and falling silent.
Feng Hongyang looked at me and smiled, "Xiao Yuan, you are like a polished jade, becoming more beautiful."
I was stunned and looked up at him with slightly flushed cheeks.
Feng Hongyang gazed at me with burning eyes, "Xiao Yuan, you are becoming more attractive to me."
I was taken aback, my cheeks turning red.
Feng Hongyang looked at me and smiled, "Xiao Yuan, I love you."
I froze, staring blankly at him.
Feng Hongyang looked at me with deep affection, "I love you."
My eyes became moist as I nodded, "I love you too."
Feng Hongyang smiled warmly.
