The bright moon hangs high in the sky, its light spilling onto the earth like water, gentle and tender.
The bright moonlight shone through the window, gently caressing Li Baobei's beautiful yet slightly melancholy face.
She stood quietly by the window, staring blankly at the room outside, her mind filled with countless thoughts.
Am I getting married? She couldn't help but ask herself.
Time flies so fast, it catches me off guard. Looking back on every moment from when I first met Dongfang to how we got to know each other, it feels like just yesterday, but now our wedding is just around the corner.
Li Baobei felt a strange emptiness and confusion, so she gently pushed open the door and walked towards the pavilion outside.
Stepping into the pavilion, she slowly sat down, leaning against the stone bench, and looked up at the full moon in the sky.
The moonlight, like a light veil, fell upon her, making her look as pure and holy as a fairy.
However, behind this beautiful scene, a strange feeling quietly welled up in my heart.
Just as Li Baobei was lost in her thoughts, a dark figure quietly emerged from the corner.
He moved with light steps, like a ghost, and came to Li Baobei's side, then sat down gently.
This person is Anji.
"You've come, Anji." Li Baobei turned her head, a light smile on her face, and said softly.
"Mm." Anji nodded slightly in response.
Then, the two fell into a brief silence.
After a long while, Anji finally couldn't help but ask, "Miss, do you really like Young Master Dongfang?"
Upon hearing this question, Li Baobei's eyes became confused.
She rolled her eyes, as if trying to think of something.
Does she like it? She wasn't quite sure herself.
She was indeed very happy with Dongfang. They spent many wonderful times together, during which she forgot all her troubles and was in a very cheerful mood.
Moreover, their relationship developed smoothly without encountering too many setbacks.
But......
For some reason, I always felt something was missing deep down, and the joy I had been expecting did not arrive as planned.
This feeling puzzled Li Baobei, and she couldn't explain why.
But let's just let things take their course...
Not long after, Li Baobei looked ahead with a determined gaze and replied firmly, "Anji, I feel very relaxed when I'm with Dongfang. Marrying him seems pretty good."
“Miss…” Anji hesitated, his voice revealing a hint of urgency, but he did not continue speaking.
Seeing this, Li Baobei quickly said, "Anji, from now on you can just call me Nannan, don't call me Miss anymore~ In my heart, you've always been my best friend."
Upon hearing this, a hint of desolation flashed in Anji's eyes, and all the words he wanted to say stuck in his throat.
In the end, he simply responded with a soft "Mm." This simple word seemed to contain a thousand words, and also seemed to express endless helplessness.
Maybe Nan Nan will blame her later!
He remained silent and still, as if he already knew the answer in his heart.
After exchanging a few words, the two went back to their respective rooms to rest.
early morning.
Li Baobei woke up earlier than usual today.
She had something on her mind and wanted to have a serious talk with Dongfang.
However, Dongfang doesn't seem to spend much time in this house on ordinary days.
Each time she met him, it was either because Dongfang Yerong happened to appear, or because she had to inform Anji in order to see him.
Although she didn't know exactly what Dongfang Yerong was busy with, Li Baobei had an unreserved sense of trust in him deep down.
After all, since she woke up, he had never done anything to harm her and had been very kind to her, which made her feel at ease.
Li Baobei found Anji and expressed her desire to meet Dongfang.
As soon as he finished speaking, the darkness vanished instantly, like a gentle breeze.
Will all of this really go as she wishes?
Night falls and the city lights come on.
Li Baobei sat quietly in the pavilion, anxiously waiting for Dongfang Yerong to arrive.
Sure enough, not long after, Anji and Dongfang Yerong appeared at the door together.
Anji glanced at Li Baobei from afar, then quietly disappeared again like a ghost.
Dongfang Yerong walked briskly toward Li Baobei with a bright smile on her face, her eyes revealing a hint of apology.
As they approached, Dongfang Yerong said softly, "Nannan, I've been so busy lately that I may have neglected you. After we get married, I'll definitely make time to take you around."
Li Baobei gently handed the fragrant tea to Dongfang Yerong and softly replied, "It's alright, as long as you're safe and sound, I'll be content."
The two sat side by side in the pavilion. After a moment of silence, Li Baobei finally mustered up the courage to speak: "Dongfang, we're about to get married. Can I go home and visit my parents?"
Her expectant gaze was fixed on Dongfang Yerong, as if hoping to get a positive answer from him.
Dongfang Yerong suddenly hesitated, as if he had gone through an internal struggle.
After a long while, she slowly opened her mouth and said, "Nannan, I'm so sorry, I've been lying to you all along."
"Huh?" Li Baobei was completely baffled, looking at Dongfang Yerong with a face full of doubt, thinking, why would he lie to me?
What exactly happened?
Dongfang Yerong quickly grasped Li Baobei's hands tightly and explained urgently, "I really didn't mean to lie to you, please believe me! It's just that your past identity is no longer of any benefit to you now, and may even be a burden, so I..."
At this point, Dongfang Yerong paused, seemingly considering how to continue.
Then, he squeezed Li Baobei's hand tightly and said in a slightly low voice, "If you feel angry or sad, you can hit or scold me as you please, whatever you want, but please, please don't leave me, okay? Nannan."
At this moment, Li Baobei noticed that Dongfang Yerong's hands were trembling slightly.
He kept his head down, looking just like a child who had done something wrong and was waiting to be punished. His appearance was rather endearing.
Li Baobei held Dongfang Yerong's hands tightly, her eyes revealing unwavering determination and trust. She gazed straight at him and whispered, "Dongfang, I have always believed that you would never do anything to hurt me."
However, her voice lowered slightly, and with a hint of doubt, she continued, "But... I still want to know what the truth is, Dongfang..."
