“Nine years ago, Long Xiaoxi requested to cancel our engagement. However, I was the reason behind her decision to do so. I was insensible back then, which was also why she left S Nation and lived abroad for nine years. Now that she’s back, we’ve reconciled and gotten married. I’d like to make a promise to her now and I want everyone to testify for me. If I ever let her down, I’m willing to become a monk and bequeath all my assets to her and our children. This is proof of my determination. We’ll be holding our wedding very soon. Although I’ve already apologized to her in person, I’d like to apologize again. Xiaoxi, I’m sorry. I love you.”
Long Xiaoxi looked at him and said, “Seems like you’ve really kept your word.”
“Of course.”
Long Xiaoxi’s mobile phone rang. She took a look at the caller display to see that it was a call from Zhong Minhe.
She answered it immediately, “Brother Minhe.”
“...”
“I’ll go downstairs right now.” She then ended the call immediately and hurried outside with her mobile phone.
Jin Yiheng stopped her and asked, “Where are you going?”
“Brother Minhe is downstairs. He wants to see me.”
“I’ll go with you.”
Long Xiaoxi glared at him and asked, “What for? He wants to see me, not you. Just wait for me at home.”
Jin Yiheng insisted, “We all know each other. Why can’t I see him?”
“No, just stay at home and wait for me. I’ll be back very soon. If you insist on tagging along, I’ll go back to my parents’ home tonight.”
“...”
Jin Yiheng had no choice but to go over to Ji Gui’s apartment to borrow his binoculars. He then stood on the balcony and looked down.
Unfortunately, he did not see anything at all because Zhong Minhe was standing in the lobby and thus was not in his field of vision.
Long Xiaoxi ran into him when she exited from the elevator.
“Brother Minhe.”
He answered, “Xiaoxi.”
“Yes?”
“I saw Yiheng’s apology video.”
Long Xiaoxi said, “I just saw it too.”
“I also heard... that you’ve reconciled with him.”
“Who did you hear it from?”
“Is it true?”
“Yes... we drank and... Brother Minhe, you don’t have to wait for me any longer.”
“I knew it. I knew you would return to him. You’ve only ever had eyes for him ever since we were children, and you wouldn’t have stayed abroad for so many years if you didn’t resent him. Xiaoxi, I think he’s made up his mind to be with you. You have my blessings,” he said, gazing at her.
Long Xiaoxi felt that he had said those words with a heavy heart.
“Brother Minhe, I wish you all the best too. I hope you’ll find a woman you can settle down with.”
As soon as she finished speaking, a squeaky voice hollered impatiently, “Brother! Are you done yet!?!” Long Xiaoxi looked over to see that Zhong Tian’ai was striding toward them. Zhong Tian’ai said in a mellower tone, “I heard that you’ve gotten married. Congratulations.”
“You seem to be happier than I am about my marriage.”
Zhong Tian’ai said candidly, “Yeah, it’s worth celebrating. Besides, you’ll no longer be pestering my brother. I’ll obviously be happy about it.”
Long Xiaoxi said calmly, “The second reason should be the main one. Although you were hostile toward me and sent me a text message using your brother’s mobile phone, I’m glad to see how much you care about him.”
“It was my fault for being hostile and pretending to be my brother. I apologize for that.” Zhong Tian’ai then said to her brother, “Mother said that she had made some dumplings and wants us to go over to have some.”
“Xiaoxi, we’re leaving now,” said Zhong Minhe, who did not stay any longer.
“Alright, get home safely.” She then walked out of the lobby and watched them leave slowly.
Long Xiaoxi turned around and headed back to her apartment. As soon as she entered, Jin Yiheng exited from the balcony and asked, “Was that his sister?”
“Yes.”
“She’s already so grown up.”
“Yes.”
“What did he say to you?”
Long Xiaoxi changed into her home slippers and entered. “Nothing much, he just congratulated me.”
“You seem unhappy. Are you upset that you can’t be with him anymore?”
Shaking her head, she answered, “I’m just feeling a little guilty. I never knew that he used to carry a torch for me. I started feeling guilty after I found out. Well, like what he said, I used to only have eyes for you. I never realized that there were others around me. If he hadn’t confessed his feelings to me, I wouldn’t have known that he fancied me at all.” freewebnovel.c om
“I’ll adore you more than he does.” He walked toward Long Xiaoxi, who quickly took a few steps back.
“What are you trying to do?”
“I’m trying to kiss you.”
“Get lost.”
He pressed her against the wall and said as he smiled, “Where should I get lost to? Shall I get lost in you?”
“...”
“I haven’t forgiven you yet, so quit being so sheepish.”
“It’s alright, I’m in no hurry anyway. You can always forgive me after we have a few children.”
“...”
Long Xiaoxi deeply regretted getting back together with Jin Yiheng without preparing herself mentally beforehand. She felt as if she was stepping on eggshells every day.
After the modeling contest, she seemed to have cut off contact with the modeling industry. He would take her with him everywhere he went, be it to the office, social events, business trips, or even the supermarket. Hence, Long Xiaoxi was greatly peeved and felt that her freedom had been restricted.
Not only was she restricted by him, she was restricted by the baby in her womb as well.
She was told to avoid cold and spicy foods and even had to watch her weight!
What else can I do?
Nothing.
Well, at least her sex life was not affected.
Despite repeatedly telling him that she had yet to forgive him for everything that he had done, her efforts were futile.
As the days passed, she gradually stopped saying those words to him.
Long Xiaoxi’s pregnancy did not give her the greatest sense of accomplishment. Instead, it was the fact that she had managed to matchmake Jin Rongyan and Li Xiaoxiao successfully.
They fell in love with each other after the various sexual encounters. Whenever she saw them together, Long Xiaoxi would express her disdain toward men in her head. Men are all the same. No matter how much they claim to dislike a certain woman, their hormonal reactions would often betray them. The truth is often revealed by their actions! she thought.
Jin Rongyan was the best example.
Long Xiaoxi was bored out of her wits. After begging Jin Yiheng for a long time, he finally agreed to take her on a vacation.
