Chapter 42: Chapter 42: Writing a Love Letter for Him

"Isn’t love and marriage all the same? Who has the ability to predict their romantic future?"

Gu Lili stepped forward with a light smile and looped her arm through Long Yubei’s, "Yubei and I didn’t get married because of love, but I do believe that love is an indispensable aspect of a marriage. I’ve told him that I will try to fall in love with him, and I will make him try to fall in love with me."

Upon hearing her speak this way, Shen Congmo also felt relieved, "Let’s have a meal together. We’ll pull Liang He from the filming and call over both of your younger sisters too. It’s more fun with a crowd."

"Then it’s settled."

***

While the two of them were talking downstairs, Gu Lili went upstairs alone.

There, she sat and recalled Long Yubei’s words.

They were his sincere words.

But she couldn’t distinguish what they truly meant.

He never thought about how long he would be with her...

Did it mean he truly never fantasized about a future with her and had a different timeline in his mind, one that once reached would signify the end?

Or was it truly that he didn’t think too much and just wanted to live well in the present moment?

Gu Lili lay down, looking up at the crystal chandelier above her.

She wasn’t afraid of the day she would part ways with him, she just didn’t want to have any regrets – she wanted to seize the present well.

She wanted to touch his heart bit by bit.

Gu Lili went to his study.

Sitting in his chair, she took a pen and wrote a letter seriously on the thick stationery.

To be precise, it was a love letter.

...

By the time Long Tianjiao and Long Fengxi arrived, Liang He and his agent Shi Xiaotian were already there.

"Where’s my little sister-in-law?"

"Just arrived and asking about your sister-in-law, don’t you see me at all?" Long Yubei felt unhappy being ignored!

"Nope." He collapsed on the sofa, "I’m dead tired day after day. Once this film wraps up, I’m going to take a good rest."

"Brother Congmo!" Long Tianjiao, ever the instigator, asked, "Do you still like my sister or not?"

Long Fengxi shot her a warning glance, but Long Tianjiao ignored it and urged with a grin, "Come on, answer."

"Shouldn’t you be asking your sister that?" He looked up, the affection in his eyes retreating as he stared straight at Long Fengxi.

"I’ve stopped liking you a long time ago," Long Fengxi said without looking at him.

"Well, that’s just fine, because I lost interest in you a long time ago too."

Liang He sighed, "You two are enough, since you are both not interested in each other anymore, you should quickly find a new beginning. Old Shen, I could introduce you to a really pure girl, interested?"

"How pure?" Shen Congmo went along with him.

Liang He narrowed his eyes with a smile, "Guaranteed untouched, that’s how pure. Don’t try to deceive me. Today, with Feng Xi here, you should prove that you’re over her. Otherwise, it means you’re still not over her."

Caught in a difficult situation, Shen Congmo stubbornly said, "Really that pure? I find it hard to believe. Introduce her to me tomorrow."

Liang He sat up and clapped his hands, "It’s settled then. I’ll send her a text right now."

Shen Congmo saw him actually sending the message and felt like he had fallen into Liang He’s trap, but he only had to tough it out.

When Gu Lili came down, she had the love letter she wrote tucked into her coat pocket.

Her gaze fell on the tall figure of Long Yubei sitting casually on the couch.

The closer she walked towards him, the more her heart clenched with nervousness.

Finally, she sat down next to him.

Gu Lili held the love letter tightly, yet at the moment, she couldn’t bring herself to hand it over to him.

Still, she wanted him to see it. Slowly raising her hand, she slipped it into his suit pocket when no one was looking.
