Before Gu Qichen could speak, Star slid down onto the carpet with her hands on the armrest of the sofa and sat down next to him. "Tonight, let's not talk about the past or the future, just focus on romance, okay?"

It’s just about romance.

Gu Qichen paused while pouring the wine, his eyes deepened, "Okay."

The next moment, the arm holding the wine stiffened.

Star leaned her head on his shoulder and said softly, "Gu Qichen, do you know when I fell in love with you?"

My eyes were swollen and my heart felt like something was about to burst out.

Gu Qichen's throat was dry and he couldn't even utter a complete sentence.

In the past two years, he has returned to the capital less frequently, but he has never spent the night at home.

After visiting his mother and hearing about what was happening at home, he drove to find Qin Chizhou and the others.

Whenever he saw Qin Chizhou and Ai Xiaomi quarreling, he would feel jealous.

Whenever he saw them walking hand in hand, or Ai Xiaomi acting coquettishly and asking Qin Chizhou to carry her on his back, he would feel jealous and angry.

He dreamed about Star a lot on weekdays, but every time he saw Qin Chizhou, Ai Xiaomi, Lu Changchuan and Ye Wan during those nights in the imperial capital, the Star in his dreams became more real.

Angry, acting like a spoiled child, laughing, crying...

It was as if he and she were really together, just like every other couple in love around them.

When he opened his eyes at dawn and found that everything was a dream, Gu Qichen would feel terrible.

So much so that he became less and less willing to return to the imperial capital.

But when he thought about the possibility of seeing her when he came back, he decided not to turn back.

He dreamed that Star was by his side, and they could talk in low voices and kiss each other like those lovers, but Gu Qichen knew that his wish could only come true in dreams.

And at this moment, the dream came true.

"Gu! Qi! Chen!"

When the slightly angry voice sounded, Gu Qichen came back to his senses and saw a hint of anger in Star's eyes.

Only then did I realize that I had been in a daze for a long time and hadn't even uttered the word "I'm sorry".

Bang! With a crisp sound, Star put the wine glass in her hand back on the coffee table, supported herself with both hands, turned over and sat astride his arms.

With the fragrance in my arms, my heart beat so fast as if it was about to jump out.

Gu Qichen looked up at the face that was so close that he could only see it in dreams, and his eyes were swollen and painful.

She looked angry, but when she spoke, she spoke with a hint of femininity, "Tell me, what were you thinking about just now?"

"I……"

His voice was very hoarse, and Gu Qichen looked at the face in front of him almost greedily, "I was wondering, if I kiss you now, would you feel that I am..." He deliberately changed the subject.

Gu Qichen didn't finish his words.

Star's kiss with the aroma of wine has fallen.

Boom! There was a loud noise in his heart, as if something had exploded, but Gu Qichen was too busy to think about it.

With one hand tightly around her waist and the other hand holding the back of her head, Gu Qichen felt like he was about to burn.

"Long-lasting love, long-lasting love..."

Tears rolled down the corners of his eyes and Gu Qichen paused.

Star also stopped.

"Do you think... I'm useless?"

Twisting her red lips with his thumb, Gu Qichen smiled bitterly and spoke.

The woman smiled sweetly, "Gu Qichen, am I the first woman who makes you cry?"

"yes."

"Well, it can only happen this time, okay?"

"……good."

"Gu Qichen, I love you!"

"I……"

Messy breathing lingers in the noisy night.

The night sky outside the window is lonely.

There is deep affection inside the window.
