The CEO's Wife and First Love

"Honey, when are you going back to the United States? Didn't you say you would be back in a week? But now it's been more than a week, why haven't you come back yet?" Nora's slightly dissatisfied voice came from the other end of the phone, and she sounded a little unhappy.

Zekai's heart skipped a beat. He didn't expect Nara to call and ask about it so soon. He hesitated for a moment, then replied calmly, "Dear, don't worry. The problem here has not been solved yet. It may take another week or so."

However, Zekai felt mixed emotions. He didn't tell the truth. In fact, the problem had been fixed long ago, but he was still hesitating whether to follow Wanqing's advice or go back to the United States.

He didn't know how to explain it to Nora, nor did he know why he suddenly had such an idea. Even he himself didn't know what to do.

In the past few days, he and Wanqing have been together, and as time goes by, his view of Wanqing has quietly changed. Especially when they came to the place where they used to date together, the sweet memories of the past came flooding back to his mind, making him unable to let go for a long time.

That place held too many memories for them, and every corner seemed to still contain their laughter and affectionate gazes. Standing there, he seemed to be able to see himself and Wanqing walking hand in hand on the street, feeling that in that quiet corner, they were like two frightened deer, cautiously approaching each other.

Their heartbeats were like drums, beating violently in their chests, as if they were about to break free. Finally, their bodies touched lightly, and then, as if attracted by an invisible force, they slowly embraced each other.

At this moment, time seemed to stand still for them. They felt each other's warmth, breathed each other's breath, and everything became so beautiful and peaceful.

The world around them gradually blurred, leaving only the two of them, immersed in this brief but precious moment.

Then, as if it was natural, their lips slowly moved closer and gently touched each other. This was their first kiss, with a little shyness and nervousness, but more of desire and love for each other.

Although the kiss was gentle, it was like a flash of lightning across the night sky, instantly igniting the passion deep in their hearts. Such warmth and love.

Scenes kept flashing in their minds like a movie. These images switched rapidly like the montage techniques in the movies, making it difficult to keep up.

At this moment, two completely different emotions quietly rose in Li Zekai's heart. It seemed as if there were two people in his heart engaged in a silent contest, one was Nora, and the other was Wanqing.

Li Zekai felt that his love for Nora was more of a feeling of gratitude, which stemmed from the fact that Nora had given him special help or support at a certain moment in his life, making him feel warm and cared for.

However, is this kind of gratitude equal to true love? Li Zekai couldn't help but start thinking about this question.

In contrast, when he thought of Wanqing, a completely different feeling surged in his heart.

Whenever he saw Wanqing, his heartbeat would speed up involuntarily, as if the whole world had stopped turning at that moment. This feeling of accelerated heartbeat made him realize that his feelings for Wanqing might not just be ordinary liking, but a deeper level of love.

So, is this feeling of accelerated heartbeat the legendary love? Li Zekai fell into deep thought. He began to recall every little detail of his time with Wanqing, the time they spent together, the casual glances they had, all of which made his heart ripple.

Perhaps, this is love. Li Zekai told himself silently in his heart. Isn't love such a heart-pounding and indescribable feeling? These few days of getting along with each other made him get to know Wanqing again. Her every smile, every word and every action were deeply imprinted in his mind. He found that his feelings for Wanqing did not fade away with the passage of time, but became stronger in his heart.

However, he also understood that the past was the past, and the relationship between them was no longer the same as before. Although he still had feelings for Wanqing, he didn't know whether this relationship could continue.

"Zekai, my parents invite you to dinner at our home tonight." When Li Zekai was thinking, Wanqing came to him, gently took her hand and told him.

"This..." Li Zekai hesitated and didn't want to go yet.

"What's the matter? I told my mom about us. She likes you very much. She said she would invite you to her house for dinner tonight."

In fact, Wanqing did not tell her parents that Zekai already had a girlfriend. They only knew that their daughter liked Li Zekai, and she didn't even look at the boyfriends introduced to her in the past few years.

Mom and Dad were very worried. They didn't understand why their daughter had no interest in other boys but only had a special liking for Li Zekai. They began to worry about their daughter's emotional problems and feared that she would be hurt.

So, Mom and Dad decided to have a good talk with Wanqing. On a weekend afternoon, they sat in the living room, and Wanqing sat across from them obediently.

"Wanqing, you're not a child anymore, it's time to find a boyfriend." Mom spoke first.

"I know, Mom. But I really like Li Zekai." Wanqing lowered her head and said softly.

"But he already has a girlfriend. Isn't it a waste of your feelings if you keep liking him?" Dad said with a frown.

"I know, but I just can't let him go." Wanqing's tears welled up in her eyes.

Seeing their daughter's sad face, the parents were also sad. They knew that love can't be forced, but they didn't want their daughter to be immersed in pain all the time.

"Wanqing, we know you like Li Zekai, but you also have to consider your future. You can't keep waiting like this, maybe there will be someone better waiting for you." Mom comforted.

Wanqing sat quietly on the sofa, her hands tightly clasped together, her eyes were a little empty, as if she was thinking about something. Her mother's words hit her heart like a heavy hammer, making her feel a sharp pain.

After a while, Wanqing slowly raised her head, with a hint of stubbornness and determination in her eyes. She looked at her parents, her lips trembling slightly, and finally said, "Mom and Dad, I know you are doing this for my own good, but I really love Zekai, I just like him. He is special to me, and no one can replace him in my heart."

Wanqing took a deep breath and continued, "If you want me to find someone else, I can't do it. I would rather not marry for the rest of my life than go against my heart and be with someone I don't love." Although her voice was not loud, it was full of determination and strength that could not be ignored.

Mom and Dad had no choice but to agree with Wanqing's decision.
