Jiang Yue is a free-spirited wind, and also a sensitive little butterfly.
Butterflies are fragile and easily broken, yet they possess the softest hearts. It takes countless loving and cherished details for this little butterfly to perch on this branch.
Jiang Yue can also distinguish whether love is genuine.
Since she likes Zhou Ji, why not give it a try for now?
Once she falls in love, she falls in love. She's not afraid of being let down, and she can walk away at any time.
Jiang Yue felt the arms around her waist tighten even more.
She gripped his shirt cuffs until they were slightly wrinkled, and a few buttons on the top of the shirt were undone, giving him a relaxed and casual look. The thin fabric subtly accentuated the lines of his waist and abdomen. She sat on his lap, and in the midst of their earlier entanglement, her shirt had inadvertently rolled up, revealing a section of her slender, snow-white waist that was soft and beautiful.
Her palm accidentally touched the man's belt around his waist, and the cold metal made her shiver.
Zhou Ji grasped her hand, his dark eyes fixed on her, as if a raging hurricane had passed through them. He was still wearing their wedding rings on his finger, the metal band particularly eye-catching. He said, "Okay."
After a few seconds of calm silence, Zhou Ji spoke again, his throat still tight, his voice hoarse and slightly trembling. He said, "It's my honor."
Jiang Yue didn't know how long this relationship would last.
She has never loved anyone, and doesn't know if her love is faithful. She might fall in love with someone else soon, and when that happens, she will naturally tell Zhou Ji that she wants to break up.
But at least for now.
She still likes him.
What if she becomes very loyal in love, and by the end of the story she still loves Zhou Ji?
Jiang Yue hadn't thought about the future either.
Will Zhou Ji believe her origins? Will he think she's just making things up out of thin air? Or even if he does believe her, that she's a princess from a thousand years ago, would he be willing to go back to Jiang Kingdom with her?
Jiang Yue couldn't figure it out, so she stopped thinking about it.
Every story eventually comes to an end, and whether it's good or bad, there will ultimately be a result.
She chose to let nature take its course.
In the end, she would never wrong herself, not even for love, she could not be subservient or sacrifice herself.
The movie is coming to an end.
The protagonist defeated the villain, and everyone achieved a happy ending.
Jiang Yue reached for the remote control, but was pushed down onto the sofa. In her dazed state, she thought that she really shouldn't have drunk that glass of red wine tonight.
Drinking alcohol can lead to trouble.
Alcohol makes people impulsive!
Jiang Yue was starting to suspect that Zhou Ji might have ulterior motives.
I helped her avoid drinking too much at dinner, so why did I let her have a small glass just now?
However, Jiang Yue quickly lost interest in overthinking things.
She was like a capsized boat, tossed about by the waves of the lake.
Jiang Yue couldn't remember when she was carried back to the guest room. She slept soundly through the night until the next morning.
Her fully charged phone was on the side of her pillow.
Jiang Yue woke up exhausted. Even after sleeping for ten hours, she still felt very tired. She checked her phone and saw several missed calls from Qin Zhao.
Qin Zhao sent her a message last night, but she had forgotten when she had put her phone on silent, so she didn't hear the notification sound.
Oh, Jiang Yue remembered.
It seemed that her phone rang twice while she was playing cards. Zhou Ji kindly reminded her that she should not be distracted during the game, as being half-hearted would easily lead to defeat.
Jiang Yue didn't think much of it and put her phone on silent.
Qin Zhao couldn't contact her all night, but to be honest, he wasn't worried. Since Zhou Ji had taken her out, her safety was a given.
If he loses the person, things will naturally not end well.
Jiang Yue saved Qin Zhao's contact as his name.
Qin Zhao: [What time will you be back? I'll drive to pick you up.]
Qin Zhao: [Send me the address of the manor, I'm coming over now.]
Qin Zhao: [Do not believe Zhou Ji's words, not a single one.]
Qin Zhao: [Remember to lock the door properly when you go to sleep at night, and use multiple locks.]
Every few minutes or ten minutes, Qin Zhao would send her a message, totaling more than a dozen messages intermittently.
Jiang Yue replied to him only now: 【Sorry, brother, I didn't see it last night.】
Qin Zhao replied almost instantly: 【Are you awake?】
Immediately afterwards, the man sent another voice message: "Did you go to bed early last night?"
Jiang Yue doesn't like to lie, so she told the truth: "No, I was playing cards at the time and it was on silent."
Qin Zhao called the next second. After answering, he didn't ask anything else, only saying, "I'm driving to pick you up now."
He has already found the address.
Jiang Yue felt it was unnecessary to make such a fuss, especially since it was a workday. "No need," she said, "Zhou Ji is my driver."
When Zhou Ji was mentioned, Qin Zhao had to ask one thing: "I called you last night in the early hours of the morning, and he answered. Can you explain that?"
Around 1 a.m., another man answered her call, the implications of which were self-evident.
Zhou Ji didn't say anything ambiguous, stating in a calm tone, "Call back tomorrow, she won't be able to answer tonight."
Whether Qin Zhao admits it or not, he is indeed a sister-obsessed man.
Moreover, he is the kind of person who is relatively controlling towards his younger sister, and often can't help but want to impose what he thinks is good on her and force her to have it.
Even though Qin Zhao had managed to control his morbid mentality during this time, it didn't mean he could calmly accept that Zhou Ji had answered the phone for his sister late at night.
The usually composed and level-headed Qin Zhao was anything but polite on the phone: "Zhou Ji, don't die at my hands again."
Qin Zhao barely slept all night.
He went to work early in the morning, his face so cold that even his assistant didn't dare to say a word.
Since Qin Zhao had asked, Jiang Yue didn't intend to hide it. She said, "Brother, Zhou Ji is my boyfriend now."
She originally wanted to say it directly—
She and Zhou Ji slept together last night.
That seems too direct and inappropriate.
Therefore, Jiang Yue chose a more tactful way of putting it.
Her lips curved slightly, the sunlight streaming through the window illuminating the girl's radiant smile. At least for this moment, she possessed this fleeting happiness. She said, "We're in love now."
As for how to specifically talk about dating.
She hasn't talked about it, so she's not sure.
There was a deathly silence on the other end of the phone; not even a breath could be heard.
Qin Zhao gripped his phone tightly, the words seeming to be squeezed out from deep in his throat: "Yeah, as long as you like him."
Putting aside prejudice and years of discord.
Zhou Ji is at least one of the few men in this circle who maintains a clean reputation.
