The night after the autumn rain is fresh and cool, and the wind is filled with the sweet fragrance of blooming osmanthus.

Sitting in his arms, Xu Nanyin lowered her eyebrows, her porcelain-white face obedient and calm.

Pei Jingmo stared at her for a few seconds with a faint look in his eyes, catching the hint of disappointment she was trying to hide, and then realized something, "Little taciturn girl, have you been holding this question in your heart for four years?"

Xu Nanyin nodded softly.

"Two reasons. First, I can sense that you're afraid of the pressure of being with me. Remember when we first started dating, I wanted to take you back to the dormitory, but you always dodged and refused. You also know that I was quite popular at school back then, and you were always low-key and quiet. I don't want you to be harassed because of me."

Indeed, when she went to college, Pei Jingmo was still a celebrity and a campus star, with so many eyes staring at him... She didn't have the courage to stand next to him openly at that time and be stared at and talked about by others.

"The second reason is that I never wanted to bring you into my circle from the beginning. I always wanted to escape with you."

Pei Jingmo pulled his lip and said, "I said I wanted to marry you. Do you think I said it casually?"

He took out his old cell phone, opened the photo album and handed it to her.

Album name: Wedding Room.

Xu Nanyin was stunned. What caught her eye in the photo was an ancient and elegant Chinese-style villa. She scrolled through the album and saw the villa's beautiful and spacious pavilion, the backyard full of red camellias and roses, the winding Chinese-style corridor, and the green lake where goldfish swam...

She suddenly remembered that some time ago, Pei Jingmo showed her a lot of photos, saying that a friend of hers was choosing a wedding house and asked her to take a look from a girl's perspective.

It turned out that the room they chose was their wedding room.

"What I'm thinking of is moving in with you and grandma after graduation."

No wonder there are ramps for wheelchairs in many places in the photos. He even took into account his grandmother's mobility issues.

"I've been investing in small projects since high school. Even though my net worth was only around 10 billion by the time I got to college, it was enough for us to live comfortably for the rest of our lives. I never wanted to join a consortium, and I didn't want you to bother integrating into my circle and being judged through tinted glasses by those messy people in it..."

Pei Jingmo didn't want her to suffer, and he had no attachment to that circle.

As for Mr. Pei and his wife, he had no intention of paying any attention to them. He had long since stopped wanting to stay in that so-called "home".

"I want to build a home of our own with you, a warm home like your parents'."

It turned out to be the case.

Suddenly I realized that for many things, she didn't ask, and he just did it silently without saying anything, and unknowingly, a lot of estrangement had arisen...

There was silence for a moment.

After a series of confessions tonight, both of them have resolved many of their concerns.

In the final analysis, it was just that four years ago, both of us were immature and our way of handling things was not appropriate, and it was just a coincidence.

If she had been brave enough to open the door of the private room that afternoon and ask him about what happened with Shen Wei...

If something happened to the Ye family, he could consult her instead of just trying to solve it himself...

Everything will be different.

"Xu Nanyin, I promise that I will consult you if I have anything to discuss in the future. I will never make unilateral decisions and hide them from you again."

"I also promise that if you have any questions in the future, just ask them. I won't keep them to myself anymore..."

Their eyes met, and Pei Jing's dark eyes shone brightly, deep, firm and gentle.

The stand-up collar of his grey shirt covered half of his slender, cold white neck.

Under the cold moonlight, his face was fair and clear, and he was so handsome that it was breathtaking.

Xu Nanyin's fingertips unconsciously caressed his deep brow bones, his straight nose, and his beautiful red lips...

This was the first time since we met again that I dared to stare at him like this, using my eyes to depict his appearance inch by inch.

"Am I good-looking?" Master Pei said with a bit of pride.

Xu Nanyin: "Don't talk, you're hurting my eyes."

"Tsk." Master Pei snorted coldly: "Or I might as well just stop breathing."

Xu Nanyin chuckled, "Why don't you just sit here and close your eyes and sleep. I didn't dare to look at you before, but tonight I plan to see you enough."

"Don't dare to look?" Master Pei began to bring up the past with a cautious look. "You obviously don't want to look, right? Before I arrived in Yuncheng, you looked at me like I was a virus. The look in your eyes could have thrown me to Antarctica. If I didn't have a strong mental state, I would have shut myself off eight hundred times."

"Is it that exaggerated?"

Xu Nanyin felt a little guilty and whispered, "I'm serious. I don't dare to look."

Because I’m afraid that if I take one look... I’ll fall for it again.

People who can only be forgotten through time and brainwashing cannot stand meeting them in person.

The more we see each other, the more we miss each other.

Her palm rested softly against his clear and beautiful jawline, and her eyes continued to trace his face.

A face that was more mature than four years ago, extremely handsome, and more masculine. The feeling that made her crazy and obsessed with him only grew stronger...

Her eyes suddenly couldn't help but become moist again. She never thought that she would have the opportunity to look at him so unscrupulously.

Pei Jingmo narrowed his eyes slightly, "Why are you still in tears? Do I look so touching?"

"Yeah, touching. He looks like my neighbor's uncle, who gave me candy when I was a child. I haven't seen him for many years, but seeing you reminds me of him."

"Imitate me, talking nonsense." Pei Jingmo pinched her face and seemed to be able to read her mind: "Stupid, just say it if you miss me."

Xu Nanyin sniffed, leaned softly against his shoulder, and whispered, "Okay, I just miss you, so much."

"I miss you so much that I hate myself because the thought of never seeing you again makes me...feel hopeless and negative."

Her face was pressed against his neck, and her chin was suddenly pinched by cool fingertips, forcing her to look up. He lowered his eyes, gazing at her with a dark gaze, his voice slightly hoarse. "It's the thought of seeing you again that gives me hope and the motivation to strive for progress."

The handsome face slowly approached, his warm breath sprinkled on her face, he tilted his head slightly, his noses staggered, and his thin lips pressed against hers.

He lifted one of her legs and let her sit astride him. His kiss went from soft to passionate.

He folded his hands around her lower back and kissed her until she was forced to lean back.

Suddenly there was a noise in the bushes nearby.

Thinking someone was coming, Xu Nanyin hurriedly tried to get out of his arms, but he held her down.

"Don't panic, it's your companion."

"?"

Xu Nanyin turned her head and saw a little gray cat cautiously emerging from the bushes. It meowed a few times and looked at them warily.

Pei Jingmo smiled faintly and asked her, "Little cat, is this a companion you met while wandering around outside?"

Xu Nanyin snorted, "No, I'm not. I don't have any companions, and I'm afraid they'll steal my fish."

"Ha." Pei Jingmo was amused by her and rubbed her head: "Don't go wandering around anymore. I have plenty of fish here."

Xu Nanyin wrapped her arms tightly around his waist, pressed her cheek against his chest, listened to his strong heartbeat, and smiled with curved lips: "I won't leave now that I have a home."

"Yinyin, from now on, wherever I am, that will be your home."

Xu Nanyin's heartstrings seemed to be plucked forcefully. She looked up in shock, only to see the man's dark eyes shimmering with a smile. He said in a deep voice, "It's not just a casual remark, it's a promise."

"Give me the marriage certificate so I can take a picture."
