At that moment, Ma Yuewen's phone lit up again.
【When are you coming back to Suzhou? I want to see you.】
I frowned, feeling a bit uncomfortable.
Soon, Ma Yuewen's phone lit up again.
【Why aren't you replying?】
【You aren't at that beautiful woman's place, are you?】
【If you betray me, I'll expose your secrets!】
My heart sank, and I felt a chill run through me.
Just then, Ma Yuewen's phone lit up again.
【Did you spend the night with that beautiful woman?】
【Say something!】
I put down my phone, my mind in turmoil.
At that moment, Ma Yuewen came out of the bathroom.
"Did you finish your shower?" he said with a smile as he looked at me. "I'm heading out."
"Wait." I pointed to the phone on the sofa. "Someone sent you a message."
Ma Yuewen glanced at it, and his expression changed slightly.
He picked up the phone and explained, "This is my client."
After saying that, he deleted that person right in front of me.
"See? It's gone," he showed me the phone.
I pretended not to care. "Oh, it's a client? My bad, I thought..."
"Thought what?" Ma Yuewen leaned closer to me, smiling as he asked, "Thought I had a girlfriend?"
"I didn't mean it that way."
"I was just teasing you," Ma Yuewen said as he ruffled my hair.
"He's a client, but I'm not responsible for him. He probably added the wrong person."
"Oh."
"Are you unhappy?" Ma Yuewen stared into my eyes.
"I'm not."
"I don't want you to feel any unhappiness." Ma Yuewen hugged me and whispered, "Do you understand?"
"I understand." I nestled in his embrace.
Ma Yuewen kissed my forehead and said, "I'm going to take a shower."
"Okay."
While Ma Yuewen was in the shower, I sat on the sofa, my mind in turmoil.
I'm not someone who nitpicks, but those WeChat messages earlier made me feel very uncomfortable.
I couldn't help but wonder what Ma Yuewen really thought of me.
Does he like me?
Or does he just see me as a substitute?
I felt a headache coming on from all the thoughts.
The next morning, I went downstairs with Ma Yuewen and unexpectedly saw Cui Hai.
Cui Hai was standing downstairs, seemingly having waited for a long time.
When he saw me come down with Ma Yuewen, a look of shock crossed his face.
"Fangfang..." he murmured my name.
"What are you doing here?" Ma Yuewen looked at him with a hint of displeasure in his tone.
Cui Hai didn't say anything; he just looked at me with a complicated expression.
"Fangfang, do you want to talk to him?" Ma Yuewen asked me.
I shook my head, "No need, there's nothing to talk about."
"Then let's go." Ma Yuewen took my hand and walked toward the parking lot.
I held back from looking back, but my mind kept replaying the moments I spent with Cui Hai. I told myself that there was no possibility left between us. After getting into the car, I said to Ma Yuewen, "That person just now was my ex-boyfriend."
"I know," Ma Yuewen looked at me and replied, "Fang Hui told me."
I fell silent for a few seconds before asking, "Do you think Fang Hui is pretty?"
Ma Yuewen shook his head, "She’s not your type."
"Then do you prefer her type or my type?"
Ma Yuewen laughed at my question, "I like you."
"What if Fang Hui pursues you?"
"I wouldn't give her any chance," Ma Yuewen tightened his grip on my hand. "I told you, I won't let anyone make you unhappy."
A few days later, I saw in the university group that Cui Hai had resigned from the hospital in Shanghai and returned to Suzhou for work. Moreover, he came back with Fang Hui. I found it quite ironic; when we were together, I wanted him to return to Suzhou, but he kept delaying it, saying he could gain more experience in Shanghai. Only after our breakup did he come back to Suzhou. I guessed that Fang Hui must be the reason. That night, I unexpectedly received a text message from Cui Hai.
