Chapter 107 You're Not My Husband?! (18) "Then from now on..."
"You... do you remember?" A slight look of surprise crossed the young man's face.
Alpha narrowed his eyes and shook his head. He didn't want to hear anything more about Luo Ran from Beta.
With a smile, he put his arm around Fu Li and said, "Shall we start over?"
The young man was taken aback for a moment, but quickly understood.
As long as your lover is by your side, that's enough. Who knows, the memories might come back someday? There's no need to rush.
A relaxed smile appeared on her face, and two small dimples appeared on her cheeks, making her look sweet and well-behaved.
He nodded: "Okay, let's start again."
Hearing his words, the man was somewhat moved. He gently stroked the young man's cheek with his fingers, lightly caressing it a few times, his deep eyes revealing an expression that the young man could not understand.
"Ah Li, I'm asking you, you really love me, don't you?"
Fu Li blinked and smiled, saying, "Of course. I've always loved you."
"Then, will you leave me?"
Fu Li thought this question was really worrying unnecessarily: "I've traveled all over China for you, and it wasn't easy to find you. Do you think I would leave?"
Luo Ze let out a soft, ambiguous laugh, his fingertips gently stroking Fu Li's cheek, down to her delicate neck.
"From now on, you'll stay by my side. If you dare to run away, I'll break your legs."
His tone was light and casual, and Fu Li took it as a joke, giggling. She didn't notice the Alpha's eyes gradually becoming unfathomable.
---From today onwards, Ali will only belong to him.
He lowered his head, pinched Fu Li's chin, and pressed a precious, possessive kiss onto her lips, the sound of their lips and tongues touching becoming sticky and intimate.
After a long while, Luo Ze finally released the person. He closed the computer on the table where he was working and asked gently, "Would you like something to eat? You've been sleeping for half the day."
Fu Li's face was still slightly flushed after being kissed for a while: "I'm actually not very hungry."
"Um, Ze, can I confirm if what you just said meant you wanted to be with me?" Beta asked uncertainly.
After all, although the two of them had maintained an ambiguous relationship for some time, they hadn't officially become a couple. He was afraid that this time it would just be wishful thinking on his part, so he wanted to get to the bottom of things.
Unexpectedly, Luo Ze was very frank: "Yes." He smiled.
Fu Li pressed further, "Can I tell people you're my boyfriend?"
Loze replied, "Okay."
"Can I live in the same room as you from now on?"
Loze paused for a moment, looked into Beta's starry eyes, and nodded with a smile: "Of course, if you'd like."
"Can I come to your company to see you in the future and freely enter and leave your office?"
"Can."
"Then could you first annul your engagement with Miss Willy?"
Fu Li's last question sounded somewhat hesitant. He had learned quite a bit about the business marriage from Luo Ze's parents and the butler during this time, and knew that it might put Luo Ze in a difficult position.
When this matter was mentioned, Luo Ze's expression changed slightly.
Actually, the initial engagement with the Vili family was just a decision made by the elders. After returning to his country, he met Lilith. Although he had no feelings for this Omega whose pheromones were 90% compatible with his, he didn't feel anything was wrong with it. In addition, Lilith had a good business sense and unique insights and ambitions in the family business, so the two hit it off and agreed to the marriage.
This marriage arrangement was more of a bargaining chip for both families to seek breakthroughs and exchange benefits.
If it were the old Luo Ze, he wouldn't have been averse to the necessity of the business marriage, nor would he have agreed to its dissolution. However, after Fu Li appeared, this idea gradually changed.
If he really wants to completely replace Luo Ran in Fu Li's heart, he must at least make him feel safe by his side.
He pondered for a moment, then solemnly said to Fu Li, "Don't worry, I will definitely handle this matter well."
This was tantamount to making a promise. Fu Li felt much more at ease, and a bright smile appeared on her face.
"Yes, I believe you."
After the final layer of secrecy was broken, their relationship began to develop rapidly.
Everyone in the house noticed the change, but no one dared to say anything. Only Lin Xi's eyes unconsciously darkened as he saw the two of them being so intimate.
Fu Li moved into Luo Ze's master bedroom, falling asleep and waking up with him every day.
For Fu Li, everything felt like going back to the way things were before. But for Luo Ze, it was a completely new experience.
Every morning when Alpha wakes up, he can feel a warm touch beside him. Looking down, he sees the sleeping person in his arms, peaceful and serene.
He then quietly got up and was given a good morning kiss by the dazed person.
My mood was pleasant when I went out at the beginning of the day.
At the door, the butler asked, "Young Master, you haven't stayed at that house in Hualin District for a long time. Should we have it cleaned?"
His reminder brought Luo Ze back to his senses. He had bought a luxury apartment near his company, and because of its proximity, he usually stayed there when he was busy with work. However, since Fu Li moved to the Luo family home, he hadn't stayed there for a long time. Even though he had to leave two hours earlier each day, he hadn't left the Luo residence...
Although he was initially resistant when Beta suddenly appeared, and could never have imagined that he would fall in love with her one day, everything seemed to be preordained.
Luo Ze pondered for a moment: "Let's have the house over there cleaned once a month."
The butler nodded, then raised the next, more crucial question: "The second young master's position has been decided. Madam's intention is to forcibly bring him back. What do you think..."
Upon hearing his younger brother's name, a glint of light flashed in Alpha's eyes.
Her tone suddenly turned cold: "Have someone remind him, do you understand? Don't let Mother's people catch him. It's best to make him hide somewhere else every now and then, and never let him come back for the rest of his life."
His voice was as cold as ice, carrying a chilling, murderous quality.
The butler's eyes behind his monocle darkened, and he respectfully replied "Yes," before retreating.
When Fu Li woke up, it was already three hours later.
He sat up from the large bed that could fit five or six people, put on the clothes that Luo Ze had thoughtfully placed beside the bed for him, rubbed his sleepy eyes, walked out the door, and habitually said "Good morning" to Lin Xi who was standing by the door, before going downstairs to have breakfast.
Because he had just discussed Luo Ran with the young master that morning, the butler's expression became somewhat hesitant when he saw Fu Li.
Fu Li noticed it, but couldn't figure out what had happened, so she casually asked, "Did Aze go out?"
"Yes. Young Master went to the company three hours ago."
Does he eat lunch at the company?
The butler paused for a moment and then said, "It should be. I haven't heard of any other arrangements."
Fu Li nodded, secretly planning to go to Luo Ze's place for lunch.
It was called "mooching a meal" but it was actually a date.
The employees had gotten used to Beta appearing at the CEO's office door every day.
Ever since Luo Ze brought the other person to the party that day, rumors about it have been rampant. Many employees said they saw Beta and the president being very affectionate, and they also heard that the Luo family and the Vili family had already begun the process of breaking off the engagement.
"Mr. Fu came again today. He's half an hour later than yesterday."
"I ran into him in the hallway. He had just come out of the elevator, and I accidentally glanced at the red spots on his neck. He said they were mosquito bites. But... hehe. I bet there's a whole bunch more underneath."
"Wow, Mr. Luo really knows how to have fun."
"This is nothing. Last time I was in a hurry to deliver some documents to the president's office, and I went in without locking the door. Then I heard some noises coming from the next lounge. It must have been President Luo pinning someone down on the bed and kissing them."
"Before this, I thought CEO Luo was just a work machine. Who would have thought he'd turn out like this after experiencing his first taste of sex? Tsk tsk, is this what an Alpha is like?"
"It seems that President Luo is really planning to break off his engagement with Miss Lilith. By the way, wouldn't you say Fu Li is a mistress who took over the position?"
"Don't talk nonsense. I asked Mr. Fu last time. He and President Luo knew each other a long time ago. It was only after President Luo had an accident and forgot about him that they got engaged."
"...This sounds like a romance drama plot? Do you really believe it?"
"..."
While the work group was chatting enthusiastically about gossip, in a spacious and bright office at the end of the twentieth floor, Fu Li was sitting with his eyes closed on Alpha's long, muscular legs. Light and shadow shone through the floor-to-ceiling windows onto his fair face. His chin was slightly raised, and his lips were being held in the other's mouth, with soft sounds occasionally escaping from his throat.
A bento box was on the table, the food had cooled slightly, but the man sitting in the chair still refused to let go of Beta until the latter couldn't catch her breath and protested with "mmm," finally ending the long kiss.
"Ha, ha." After being released, Fu Li was panting heavily, while Luo Ze looked calm and composed, smiling at him.
Alpha wore a sharp suit made of the finest material, incredibly smooth to the touch. The waist was slightly cinched, outlining perfect lines, and a thin layer of skin was hidden beneath the fabric, exuding a powerful aura.
"Ah Li's kissing skills have deteriorated so much, she still needs to practice more," Luo Ze joked.
Slightly out of breath, Fu Li muttered in dissatisfaction, "It's exactly the same as before. You went too far. How could you... pull me over and kiss me during dinner, right here in the office? What if someone came in?"
In response to his accusation, Luo Ze laughed and said, "Isn't Ali bringing lunch to see me specifically for this reason?"
Fu Li angrily punched his chest to express her dissatisfaction, which drew a light laugh from the Alpha.
After a while, the young man took a deep breath, took out two silver rings from his inner pocket, and handed one to him.
Luo Ze took the ring and examined it closely. In the center of the ring was a sun-like decoration with two diamonds representing stars, surrounded by a floral pattern that was both beautiful and grand.
I couldn't help but jokingly ask, "Is this the engagement ring that Ali bought to propose to me?"
To everyone's surprise, Fu Li paused, then looked at him with a serious expression and said, "You don't remember? This was designed and given to me by you before. You said that the sun on it represents me, and the surrounding vines represent gardenias, which represent you. You forgot the ring at home the day you disappeared. Look, I have another one here."
Upon hearing this, Luo Ze froze, his smile freezing on his face.
Fu Li carefully observed the increasingly deep color in his eyes and asked:
"Have you... remembered anything?"
