Bai Qianmo tried to push him away, but as soon as she reached out, he gently grabbed her hand, their fingers intertwined, and pulled her to his waist.

This kiss was deep and lingering, with a hint of domineering, quite different from the gentle kiss we shared that day in Longxiyuan Park.

My mind was in complete chaos; all reason was suppressed by my instincts.

Bai Qianmo slowly opened her eyes and looked at the man in front of her with his eyes slightly closed. His cold and handsome eyebrows, high nose bridge, and well-defined lips made every feature of his face seem to be perfectly sculpted by the hand of God.

She sighed inwardly, "How can a man be so handsome?"

A sudden pain shot through her lips, and Bai Qianmo's delicate brows furrowed as she stared at the man who was slowly opening his eyes.

His nose lightly touched hers, his breath slightly ragged, his gaze intense.

"Is it because my skills aren't professional enough? That you can still lose focus at a time like this?" The deep, husky voice, like the sound of a cello, was captivating.

Bai Qianmo's heart trembled slightly as she pursed her lips, which had been bitten painfully.

She wouldn't say that she had just been so captivated by his good looks that she couldn't extricate herself.

A sly glint flashed in Bai Qianmo's eyes as she shook her head: "I was just thinking, no wonder he has an ex-girlfriend, he's obviously a seasoned player in the dating scene."

Gu Jueye's expression hardened slightly, a wise and gentle light shining deep in his eyes.

Jealous?

Bai Qianmo raised an eyebrow, feigning a calm and fearless demeanor.

"No, I'm not that kind of stingy person." When she gets stingy, she's not human...

When the topic of "ex-girlfriend" was brought up, Bai Qianmo suddenly recalled the interview video from the day he returned to China, as well as the matching couple pajamas with the tags still attached that day in his residence.

Judging from his behavior, his ex-girlfriend had a deep influence on him, which is why he couldn't forget her.

Thinking about all this, Bai Qianmo felt a little agitated.

Gu Jueye stared at her silently for a while, then suddenly chuckled softly.

He gently touched Bai Qianmo's nose with his finger, a bright smile appearing on his handsome face.

"Silly girl, from beginning to end, it's only you."

"Huh?" Bai Qianmo looked at him with a puzzled expression.

He said it was only her from beginning to end? Then what about his ex-girlfriend?

Sure enough, men are all big pigs.

They pluck feathers from a passing goose, and they discard the bridge after crossing the river!

Knowing that the little girl had misunderstood, Gu Jueye didn't explain much. He pulled the obviously sullen girl along and turned to walk towards the dining table.

He pulled out a chair for her and gently pressed her shoulders to help her sit down.

She turned around and walked to the sofa, picked up the bouquet of roses hidden under the bath towel, and walked towards Bai Qianmo.

Upon seeing the bouquet of roses, Bai Qianmo's heart began to race.

"I wasn't formal enough when I asked you out that day, so I wanted to take this opportunity to properly express my feelings to you today."

"Bai Qianmo, do you need a boyfriend? The kind you're looking to marry!"

Staring at the vibrant, fiery roses before her, Bai Qianmo was momentarily speechless.

His second sentence echoed in my ears: "The kind with marriage in mind."

It may not seem like sweet talk, but it's a sentence that sounds more pleasant than any sweet talk.

Bai Qianmo, as if possessed, reached out and accepted the bouquet of flowers.

He glanced down at the bouquet; 101 flowers?

She still vividly remembered the 1314 roses that Gu Jueye had sent to the Bai family last time. She had even searched for information about the meaning of roses back then.

101 flowers represent unique love and unwavering love.

one Love?

"Are you sure you want to be with me with marriage in mind?" Bai Qianmo asked after a long silence.

Gu Jueye squatted down, slightly raised his eyelids, and looked up at her with burning eyes, his gaze containing a dazzling light like stars.

"Sure."

Bai Qianmo tilted her head and stared at him intently: "No regrets?"

Gu Jueye's lips curved into a smile, his gaze unusually gentle and warm.

"I'm just afraid you'll regret it."

Bai Qianmo lowered her eyes and remained silent. In fact, she had always had a feeling that Gu Jueye's attitude towards her was strange, as if he was looking for the shadow of another person in her.

He knew they were alumni, that they had known each other before, and even knew she was allergic to seafood.

But in her memory, the only impression she had of him was a photo she had seen in the school's profile of famous people, and some scattered information she had heard from her classmates.

She had always suspected that she had forgotten something very important, and even wondered if she might be his ex-girlfriend.

But if she really was the ex-girlfriend Gu Jueye was talking about, why was he so calm and composed when he first met her?

Or perhaps he'd been putting on an act all along? Was he testing whether she'd truly forgotten him?

Bai Qianmo felt her mind was in a mess. On one hand, rational judgment made her refuse, while on the other hand, her emotions were urging her to get closer.

Ultimately, she had to admit that even though she had a thousand excuses to reject him, there was one reason that made her overturn all of them.

She knew very well that she liked him, even more than that, but she didn't dare to delve into the matter.

Taking a deep breath, Bai Qianmo's eyes gradually brightened: "I..."

Just as she was about to speak, a cell phone rang, interrupting her.

Gu Jueye glanced at Bai Qianmo, frowned, and took out his phone.

The phone screen displayed three words: Ye Qianning

"I'll take this call." Gu Jueye got up, walked to the balcony, and pressed the answer button.
