As Wang Yuchen spoke, she suddenly heard a sound like raindrops splashing on the ground. She let out a soft "huh" and noticed something was wrong with Bai Weixi, who had started crying at some point without her noticing.
Wang Yuchen panicked and quickly stood up, asking with concern, "Bai, why are you crying?"
Bai Weixi wiped her tears and looked at her best friend, her heart heavy with a strange feeling.
She didn’t believe she was the kind of person Li Yuan had described, but seeing a reflection of herself in Wang Yuchen’s situation, she had no choice but to believe it.
Perhaps it was because of me that Li Yuan, a man who pursued me so devotedly for seven years, turned into such a playboy? Just as he said, he was heartbroken and no longer believed in love. But he still has a place for me in his heart, he’s still willing to accept me, and he hasn’t left me!
Bai Weixi looked at Wang Yuchen’s face. Thinking of her friend’s current romantic entanglement with Xu Zhi, which felt so much like her own story with Li Yuan, she offered a piece of heartfelt advice.
"Yuchen, I think Xu Zhi treats you well. I hope you don’t miss out on this relationship and regret it in the future!"
Wang Yuchen was baffled. Wait, you suddenly started crying because of my relationship with Xu Zhi?
If she didn’t know her best friend’s romantic history with Li Yuan, she might have suspected Bai Weixi had a crush on Xu Zhi.
Wang Yuchen quickly dismissed the crazy thought. I don’t even think much of Xu Zhi, so it’s impossible for Bai Weixi. Does Xu Zhi even compare to Li Yuan in the slightest?
Wang Yuchen frowned. "Bai, why are you bringing this up? Did you cry because I was complaining about Xu Zhi?"
Bai Weixi shook her head slightly and sighed. "I’m just speaking from the heart. I’m seriously reminding you to cherish the one you have now, so you don’t regret it later."
Wang Yuchen replied dismissively, "What’s there to regret? At our school, there are tons of guys chasing me. Some of the upperclassmen are really exceptional—they’re Modu natives, tall, and handsome."
She wasn’t bad-looking herself, above average in fact. Though she couldn’t compare to Bai Weixi’s naturally ethereal beauty, she was still considered the belle of her class at their science and engineering university. In a school where the male-to-female ratio was so skewed it resembled a monastery, she certainly had no shortage of suitors.
Listening to Wang Yuchen’s indifferent reply, Bai Weixi sighed helplessly. I can see the problem now. My best friend’s standards are a little too high, and she’s a bit of a gold-digger... Xu Zhi and she were high school classmates and even got into the same university. Normally, they would have definitely ended up together...
Suddenly, the image of Li Yuan flashed in Bai Weixi’s mind, and an impatient urge to see him welled up inside her.
"Yuchen, Li Yuan should be arriving soon. Let’s go downstairs and wait for him."
Wang Yuchen glanced reluctantly at the scorching sun outside and muttered, "Li Yuan isn’t even here yet. It’s so hot, why don’t we just wait until he arrives?"
Before Bai Weixi could reply, the doorbell suddenly rang. Her eyes lit up, and she excitedly ran to open it.
The moment she saw Li Yuan at the door, Bai Weixi couldn’t hold back any longer. Her emotions burst forth as she charged into his arms.
"Darling, I missed you so much!" Bai Weixi murmured, wrapping her arms around Li Yuan’s neck and pressing her tempting red lips against his.
While holding Bai Weixi with one arm and passionately responding to her advances, Li Yuan used his other hand to casually shut the door. He continued to kiss her as they made their way to the living room.
Seeing how proactive Bai Weixi was, kissing him so fervently and holding him so tightly, Li Yuan assumed that the third wheel, Wang Yuchen, must have left.
After all, if Wang Yuchen were here, Bai Weixi wouldn’t be this forward, would she?
As they kissed, Li Yuan’s hand slipped from her back and under her clothes. He touched her smooth, delicate waist before his fingers began to trail upward.
Bai Weixi let out a soft moan, snapping out of her daze. Startled, she tried to push Li Yuan away.
Not understanding her resistance, Li Yuan simply tightened his powerful arms around her. His hand reached for the clasp on her back, trying to undo it.
"MMMPH—Li Yuan, no—don’t! We can’t!" Terrified by his actions, Bai Weixi’s heart pounded in her chest. She tried to turn her head away, but he held her mouth firmly against his.
Li Yuan simply thought she was being shy and ignored her protests, continuing his advance without a care.
In the living room, Wang Yuchen’s eyes bulged as she covered her mouth. Li Yuan and Bai Weixi were completely ignoring her, getting hot and heavy right in front of her. They were even getting to the point where Bai Weixi’s clothes were about to come off. The blatant PDA made her cheeks flush. Part of her wanted to close her eyes, but she couldn’t bring herself to miss this thrilling, titillating scene.
They’re in such a hurry, it’s like I’m just air to them. If I weren’t here, would they just do it right on the spot? Maybe I should go hide on the balcony to give them some space and come out when they’re done?
Her imagination running wild, Wang Yuchen wanted to move, but her feet felt as if they were rooted to the floor. And so, she stood there with her arms crossed, quietly watching as Li Yuan and Bai Weixi put on a private show right in front of her.
Li Yuan held Bai Weixi in his arms. After his morning with Zhong Tingyue and Xia Zhijin, his desire was already running high, and he couldn’t contain it any longer. His body reacted instantly, pressing against her lower abdomen. He wrapped his other arm around her waist, lifted her up, and started towards the bedroom.
