"So you agreed to their request to date their chosen person?" Lu Sihe's eyes blazed with anger upon hearing Ji Feihan's words. "Ji Feihan, what do you take love for?"
Ji Feihan looked utterly dejected. He shook his head and said, "The person they wanted me to date is from the Han family. I know that person. She's not interested in me. We'll just play along and get rid of them first."
A cold smile crept across Lu Sihe's lips: "And then what? What else do you need to do to deal with them?"
"They don't have much interest in me. Once they leave, I'll just cut ties with the Han family."
"What about Jiang Tian? If you start dating someone else, are you going to break up with her?"
Ji Feihan suddenly raised his head: "I won't break up with her!"
Lu Sihe laughed in exasperation: "So you're planning to have your cake and eat it too?"
"That relationship with the Han family was just an act!"
"Then go tell Jiang Tian that you're going to act with another woman to appease your parents!"
Ji Feihan remained silent.
He looked at Lu Sihe with a wry smile: "Lu Sihe, you know what? All along, I thought my family background was a little better than yours. While you were fighting your way up in the world of wolves and tigers, I could at least work peacefully at the company and make my own decisions about my life. But this time, I realized that I was too naive."
Feihan, your parents treat you like a son, that's why we wouldn't use those underhanded methods on you. You need to know that your parents went through what you went through back then, and dealing with that nanny was easier than crushing an ant for us.
Those words echoed in Ji Feihan's ears like a curse.
He thought he was all grown up and could do whatever he wanted.
In the end, he realized that there was nothing he could do.
Lu Sihe remained silent for a long time. He finished a whole cigarette in front of Ji Feihan before saying, "Break up with her."
"no!"
Ji Feihan resolutely refused.
"So, you insist on holding her back? You're dating other people outside, and you still want her to be your girlfriend at home. Ji Feihan, what do you take her for? Have you even thought about how she'll react if she finds out?"
The thought of that possibility made Ji Feihan's face turn pale. He shook his head and said, "It will be resolved soon. I won't let her know."
Lu Sihe sighed deeply: "Do you know what you're like now? You're just a willful child who can't protect what she wants and refuses to let go. If you don't break up with her, you'll regret it later."
"Keep it a secret for me for a while, and things will be fine in time."
Ji Feihan ignored Lu Sihe's words, unsure whether he was speaking to himself or to someone else.
Lu Sihe took a deep breath, trying to calm himself down.
"Ji Feihan, have you ever considered marrying Jiang Tian?"
Upon hearing his words, Ji Feihan's hand trembled slightly, and he responded to Lu Sihe with a long silence.
"For me, marriage does not bind a person's fidelity." After what seemed like an eternity, Ji Feihan finally spoke.
His parents were just like that; aside from the fact that it was an arranged marriage, their marriage had no love whatsoever.
"But for a woman, the basic commitment to spending your life with her is to get married. She may not want to, but you can't not even have the thought of getting married."
"Ji Feihan, think it over carefully. Do you want to marry her? Once you get through this hurdle, there are other things to consider. Are you going to keep it from her like this forever? She hasn't gotten anything out of dating you."
Ji Feihan's complexion grew increasingly worse.
Ultimately, his stubbornness prevailed: "I will not marry her."
After saying that, he opened the door and left.
Lu Sihe paused for a few seconds, then lifted a curtain, revealing Jiang Tian standing there.
She didn't cry, but even her lips were turning white.
"Thank you, Mr. Lu." Jiang Tian even forced a smile as she thanked him.
Lu Sihe choked up, unable to speak; he felt so sorry for Jiang Tian.
"you……"
"You said last time that I could ask you for help, is that promise still valid?"
Lu Sihe looked at her with his deep eyes: "It has always been useful to you."
"Okay, thank you. I need to sort out my feelings first. I might need to trouble you with something soon."
"……good."
When Ji Feihan returned home and saw Jiang Tian busy in the kitchen, that feeling of time passing by returned to him.
He silently hugged Jiang Tian's waist, his voice filled with exhaustion: "I missed you so much."
Jiang Tian turned around, her eyes crinkling with a smile: "Me too."
Ji Feihan suddenly hugged her tightly, his eyes filled with bitterness.
He took a deep breath, concealing his emotions, and said in a normal tone, "I have a dinner party in three days, so I might not be able to make it back. Just cook for yourself then."
"Okay, would you like me to prepare some hangover soup for you in advance?"
"...No need, you should go to sleep early then."
Ji Feihan tried to smile at her, then hugged and kissed her.
Lu Sihe moved out yesterday, and they can finally have their own space.
After dinner, Jiang Tian said she was going to the supermarket. Ji Feihan wanted to go with her, but then he remembered something and swallowed his words, telling her to come back early.
"good."
After Jiang Tian left, Ji Feihan felt uneasy for some reason.
He eventually changed his clothes and went out.
Ji Feihan was glad that he had gone out.
He had just walked down the road that Jiang Tian often took when he saw someone sneaking around behind her, about to reach out to her the next second!
