I was just playing tricks, how come I became Bai Yueguang

When Yu Sheng was the only one left in the ward, she dropped her forced calm and let the familiar, dull pain overwhelm her.

A tear finally slid silently from the corner of my eye and seeped hotly into the back of my hand.

ended.

This years-long war and chaos, which belonged to her alone, finally saw a clear end at this moment.

"If you really like her, go and get her back."

Yu Sheng was stunned. The moment he raised his head, a piece of white tissue suddenly appeared in front of him.

Su Yun sighed softly, sat down next to the bed, and wiped the tears from her eyes. "I heard everything you just said outside the door. If you are unwilling, you can..."

"Ayun." Yu Sheng looked at Su Yun, tears welling up in her eyes. "I'm not crying because I'm unwilling to give up, but because I want to give up."

Su Yun paused, "Because she saved you?"

Yu Sheng shook his head, "Because I think I know why he likes her. I understand my rival in love, so I'm destined to lose."

Su Yun was silent for a moment, stuffed the tissue into Yu Sheng's palm, and comforted him softly, "It's okay to give up, there will be better things in the future."

Yu Sheng still shook his head, looked at the wetness in his palm, and murmured, "There won't be anyone better. He is the best person."

She even analyzed her own sadness in detail. In fact, she knew everything.

Su Yun didn't know how to comfort her for a moment, so she leaned forward and gave Yu Sheng a hug, "It will happen, it will definitely happen."

Jiang Huashan walked a few steps along the quiet corridor and saw the familiar figure leaning against the wall at the corner.

Shen Guiling waited there for an unknown amount of time. The afternoon light and shadow made his tall figure appear slender. He asked no questions, but when she approached, he naturally extended his hand.

Jiang Huashan glanced at his open palm and slapped it without hesitation.

"How many times have I told you? You have to avoid suspicion outside."

It was because he was so unreliable that Yu Sheng was able to see through his trick.

Shen Guiling noticed her bad tone and rubbed his wrist, "What's wrong? Did the conversation go wrong?"

Jiang Huashan thought for a moment, looked around, and approached carefully, "We should stay away from each other from now on. Has Yu Sheng figured it out?"

"We are now like two magnets of the same level that repel each other. How can we avoid each other?" Shen Guiling held out the back of his red and swollen hand and looked at her with his eyes lowered.

Jiang Huashan was choked by these words and glared at Shen Guiling, "It's because you don't know how to restrain yourself! The situation has been getting worse and worse recently. Shen Nian, the time bomb, has not been found yet, so we should be careful. So, from today on, the two of us will temporarily sever our ties and talk again after the storm has passed."

After saying that, he waved goodbye and turned to leave.

"..." Shen Guiling was almost laughing out of anger, and pulled her into his arms, "Are you afraid that my foreign identity will implicate you?"

Jiang Huashan was stunned for a moment, then said seriously, "Don't be unreasonable. I'm doing this for the overall situation."

Shen Guiling held her head and pulled her into his arms, "Shen Nian is nothing to worry about. If you want to avoid me, I have ways to deal with it, but don't even think about breaking off the relationship."

after an hour.

"Is this what you came up with?"

The small living room before me was incredibly cozy. The beige sofa looked soft and comfortable, casually draped with a light gray blanket. A white porcelain tea set sat on a natural wood coffee table, and a small pot of greenery stood beside it, adding to the vibrant atmosphere. There were even a few small pots of succulents on the windowsill. Sunlight streamed in through the clean glass windows, casting warm patches of light on the floor.

Jiang Huashan stood at the door, unable to react.

Shen Guiling took her hand and walked into the house. "Now Shen Lanxi and Shen Qingyu have already doubted my identity. It will be very inconvenient to stay in Shen Garden, so I bought this place. From now on, this will be our secret base."

"You bought it?" Jiang Huashan frowned, looking him up and down. "Where did you get the money? You still owe me 300 million. Where did you get the money to buy it?"

Shen Guiling had been looking forward to it, but upon hearing this, he lowered his head and cleared his throat. "This is in the suburbs, the area is small and the occupancy rate is not high. It didn't cost much."

"If it's not much, then it's nothing." Jiang Huashan frowned. "Shen Guiling, I'm telling you, you can cheat on my feelings, but you can't cheat on my money! Give me back!"

"..."

If I pay back the money at this time, won’t the sunk cost be eliminated?

But Jiang Huashan was acting like a miser who refused to give up. Shen Guiling was secretly annoyed that he should not have been so careless. He pinched his eyebrows and had an idea. "I bought it with a loan."

"loan?"

"Well, in order to avoid being seen, I use a virtual account to do the installment payment. Don't worry. It's absolutely safe here." Shen Guiling pretended to be casual to avoid Jiang Huashan's gaze, walked to the window very naturally, and opened the curtains a little to let more sunlight in.

Jiang Huashan was immediately attracted by the scenery outside and walked to the window sill to look out. "There really aren't many people around."

Shen Guiling felt relieved when he saw her attention was diverted. He gently put his arms around her waist from behind, resting his chin on her shoulder. He followed her gaze out the window and said, "This is the suburbs. The view is wide and you can even see the entire starry sky at night."

His breath was warm against her ear.

Jiang Huashan's body stiffened for a moment, but he didn't struggle. He just snorted, "Don't try that. There's no point trying to change the subject."

Shen Guiling tightened his grip, his voice filled with obvious coaxing, "Shen Nian once heard An Ti call me Your Highness. He must have become suspicious of my identity. He hasn't shown up yet, so he must be planning something. Shen Garden has many spies, so information could easily leak out. It's much more convenient here."

Jiang Huashan's ears felt hot, and she tried to stay awake. "That's why I said to stop first..."

Before she finished her words, Shen Guiling's arms around her waist suddenly tightened, and his warm lips were already pressed against her sensitive ear, rubbing gently with clear intention.

"How? Like this?"

His hot breath sprayed on the most delicate skin on her neck, and his palm began to move restlessly upwards, tracing the curve of her waist with his fingertips through the thin fabric.

"Is this still the case?"

As the temperature of his palm became more and more scorching, Jiang Huashan inevitably felt a slight shudder.

"Shen Guiling..." She began to call his name, her voice hoarse with emotion.

This call completely shattered Shen Guiling's last restraint. He suddenly turned her body around, facing her, lowered his head and fiercely grabbed her lips.

While kissing her, he pulled her up and then picked her up sideways.

Jiang Huashan looked at him in a daze and didn't react for a moment.

Shen Guiling gently gathered her loosened clothes and said in a hoarse voice, "The window is not closed."

Jiang Huashan put her arm around his neck and said, "Isn't there no one here?"

Shen Guiling held her knee with one hand, swung his long arm, and pulled the curtains tight with a "swish".

The next second, the world was spinning.

Jiang Huashan was held by him and fell into the three-meter-long sofa together.

Shen Guiling lifted the collar of his shirt that he had just gathered up a second ago, lowered her head and kissed him: "There's wind..."
