Chapter 237: Chapter 237: I Love You (11)

Long Yubei’s movements halted for a moment, then continued, "Then let’s keep living like this. I never thought about the day we’d separate anyway."

"If one day you fall in love with someone else, then we’ll have no choice but to part."

"That day probably won’t come."

"Why?"

His voice was calm, "If I can’t fall in love with a woman like you, then what woman would catch my eye?"

"Does that mean..." She turned over and laid on his lap, "you’ve already fallen for me, haven’t you?"

"It’s just a metaphor."

She rested her face on his leg and closed her eyes again, no longer speaking.

When Long Yubei finished blow-drying her hair, he found she had fallen asleep.

He set the hairdryer aside, positioned her body properly, and heard Tang Qingli’s voice from outside the door, "Young Master, the Old Madam would like you to visit the old manor."

"Got it."

Long Yubei covered Gu Lili with the silk quilt, turned off the light, and left the room.

Arriving at the old manor, the living room was brightly lit.

Sitting on the sofa were Dragon Mother, Old Madam Long, Father Long, and Long Tianjiao.

Father Long was still lying in bed due to the three-time family punishment.

For him, this was a tremendous punishment.

Almost losing his life.

As the saying goes, when children are beaten, the pain is felt in the mother’s heart.

Ever since Old Madam Long imposed the family punishment, she had been despondent, secretly crying a few times.

She’s a clear-headed old lady, feeling that if her son did such a thing, it was because she hadn’t raised him properly.

"Grandma."

"Why didn’t Lili come back with you?"

"She was asleep, I didn’t wake her."

Old Madam Long nodded, "It’s so late, calling you back like this, there’s something I need to discuss with you. It can’t be explained clearly over the phone, not something that can be said in just a few words. Tian Jiao wants to venture into the entertainment circle and I heard she has already informed you and Lili about it. Since you both respect her decision, your mom and I won’t say much. If she wants to do it, our family has the resources to support her, so let her go. However, she told us she has liked Liang He since she was 14. From Liang He refusing Tian Jiao to be his agent or assistant, I could see, that boy has no such feelings for Tian Jiao. But I’ve thought it through, feelings can be cultivated. Before, they didn’t spend much time together, and recently the Liang Family already started arranging blind dates for Liang He. If our Long Family were to have a marriage alliance with the Liang Family, it would be very beneficial for both families."

"But what’s the point if it’s forced? Tian Jiao is not the person Liang He wants."

"Brother, today sister-in-law also said to me, if it’s not meant to be mine, why force it? I have no intention to force him, I know he doesn’t like me. I just want to prevent other women from getting close to him, to give me a reason to get close to him. I will also work very hard on my career, definitely not going to cling and pester."

Long Yubei clasped his hands together, "I understand what you mean, so you want to get engaged first, right?"

"Yes, once we’re engaged, I’ll be his fiancée and the Liang family won’t arrange other marriages for him. That way, I’ll have the status of his fiancée, and I can visit him when I have the chance. I was immature before, I gave him a bad impression. I will strive to improve, to earn his respect and make him like me."

Long Yubei’s clear eyes deepened a bit as he continued to question, "Even if you get engaged and he still doesn’t like you?"
