Don't meet me in your next life.

Another half hour passed, and Lu Sichen finally couldn't take it anymore and collapsed on the bar.

"Yi Yi, what should I do?" These were Lu Sichen's last words before he fell asleep in the bar.

Chen Xi looked at him with some sadness. This once dashing and noble young master had suddenly lost everything.

"Since you love her so much, let her accompany you on this final journey. This is all I can do, brother."

Chen Xi muttered to himself as he took out Lu Sichen's phone.

"Yi Yi, Lu Sichen got drunk at the bar and it's not convenient to take him home. Would it be convenient for him to come to your place tonight?"

Chen Xi dialed Xiang Yiyi's number.

"Okay, bring him over."

Xiang Yi agreed without saying a word.

After finishing his work in the office, Lin Lubai returned to the hotel, but he couldn't fall asleep no matter what.

These days, he has been going to check on Yi Yi's house almost every night, but he doesn't want to go tonight because she's back.

He didn't want Xiang Yi to see him looking disheveled and unable to let go.

Unable to sleep, Lin Lubai went to the garage and drove the car to the riverbank to get some fresh air, but his heart was still unusually restless.

He drove around aimlessly again, but before he knew it, he had arrived at the area in front of Xiang Yi's house.

When he realized he was not obeying his commands, he was still 300 meters away from Xiang Yi's house.

He saw that the lights were on on the first floor of her house, but he didn't go over.

He missed her terribly, but she probably only had eyes for Xiang Yiyi.

Lu Sichen stopped the car, lit a cigarette, and started smoking.

He had just finished a cigarette and was about to leave when he saw a car parked in front of Xiang Yiyi's door.

Xiang Yi came out of her house and opened the door.

He hadn't seen her for several months, and her face was much rounder. Her belly was already showing, and although she wasn't wearing makeup, she was still so beautiful, and her skin was still so good, no less so than before she was pregnant. He really wanted to go down and hug her.

He was staring blankly when two people got out of the car: Lu Sichen and another man. Lu Sichen was completely drunk.

Xiang Yi immediately went to support Lu Sichen, completely forgetting that she was pregnant.

Without saying a word, Lin Lubai immediately got out of the car and took Lu Sichen from Xiang Yiyi's hands.

"You're all heavily pregnant, don't you take care of yourself at all?" Lin Lubai said, somewhat angrily.

"Oh." Xiang Yi stared at him blankly, incredulous.

She wanted to let him go, but from the moment she saw him again, she knew it was impossible.

Seeing Lin Lubai again now, her heart aches.

Chen Xi didn't recognize Lin Lubai and thought he was Xiang Yiyi's friend. The two of them helped Lu Sichen inside.

Lin Lubai helped him directly to a room on the first floor.

Chen Xi helped Lu Sichen inside, took off his shoes, and laid him down.

He had just taken off Lu Sichen's coat when his phone rang. There was a fight at the bar, and he had to go back.

Chen Xi greeted Xiang Yi, saying, "I'm still busy at the bar, I'll be going now, thank you for your help."

He thought Lin Lubai would leave with him, but seeing that Lin Lubai sat on the living room sofa and showed no intention of leaving, he had no choice but to leave first.

"Okay, thank you," Xiang Yi said.

After Chen Xi left, Lin Lubai glanced at Lu Sichen, picked up the blanket from the bed, and covered him up completely, leaving only his head sticking out.

When Xiang Yi brought in the water, she saw Lin Lubai covering the cup for her.

"She still cares about her younger brother quite a bit." Xiang Yiyi's lips curled up.

When Lin Lubai saw her, he didn't say anything and went straight to the living room to sit down.

Xiang Yi filled the water bottle for Lu Sichen, adjusted the lamp, and quietly closed the door before leaving.

Not hearing any movement from the living room, she assumed Lin Lubai had already gone back, and was somewhat disappointed.

Perhaps he only came for his brother.

However, when she went out into the living room, she saw Lin Lubai sitting on the sofa looking at his phone.

Looking at Lin Lubai sitting on the sofa, a hint of joy appeared between her brows, but she immediately felt a bit overwhelmed.

After a moment's hesitation, she went over to him: "I thought you had gone back."

“I’ll stay and take care of him tonight,” Lin Lubai said without looking up.

He really wanted to look up at her, but he was afraid he wouldn't be able to control himself, since she had already chosen Lu Sichen.

“You can go back if you’re busy. I’ll take care of him.” Xiang Yi was a little nervous. She didn’t know how to face him, especially since it was just one night.

"I'm not busy," Lin Lubai said, barely suppressing his restlessness.

"Oh. Then let me get you a glass of water." Xiang Yi tried to ease the tension by making an excuse.

"I can do it myself." Upon hearing Xiang Yiyi's words, Lin Lubai immediately stood up.

Because he got up too quickly, before Xiang Yiyi had even left, he bumped into her side. Xiang Yiyi lost her balance and fell to the side, and he immediately caught her with both hands.

Xiang Yi fell onto the sofa. To avoid crushing him, Lin Lubai braced himself on the sofa with both hands and pressed his face against Xiang Yi's.

The two stared at each other, their breathing becoming heavy.

Lin Lubai could no longer suppress his inner turmoil, and he kissed Xiang Yi directly.

The long-lost familiarity returned, and Xiang Yi couldn't help but respond to her.

After a while, the sofa was already a little damp, and Lin Lubai took off the thin gauze under her legs.

"No!" Xiang Yiyi quickly stopped her. "Lu Sichen is sleeping downstairs."

Without saying a word, Lin Lubai picked her up and carried her upstairs.

Although she was pregnant, he still felt she was too light and should eat more.

The two couldn't help but be together, neither of them mentioning the past, as if it had never happened.

Although Lin Lubai was very gentle and attentive to her belly because of her pregnancy, Xiang Yiyi still couldn't take it after two rounds of this and fell into a deep sleep in Lin Lubai's arms.

Looking at the person in his arms, Lin Lubai's heart softened.

He gently brushed her bangs aside, gazing sweetly at her face. A smile, long absent from his own face, returned, and he drifted off to sleep.

The next morning, Lin Lubai got up early and left.

He was going to Lucheng today, so he had to get up early, but he still prepared breakfast for Xiang Yi a little earlier.

Fearing she wouldn't like it, and also worried that Lu Sichen would finish it all before he got up early, he specially prepared some extra.

"Eggs, milk, toast, a bowl of noodles, a bowl of porridge, and a serving of soy milk and fried dough sticks."

When Xiang Yi woke up, Lin Lubai was already gone.

Looking at the empty bed on the left, Xiang Yi felt a little disappointed and left without saying a word.

"Oh well, he has a fiancée. I'll just consider this a dream come true," Xiang Yi comforted herself.

When Xiang Yiyi composed herself and went downstairs, Lu Sichen was drinking water. Seeing the breakfast on the table, she assumed it was prepared by Lu Sichen.

"Good morning," Xiang Yiyi greeted Lu Sichen.

"Good morning, I drank too much last night, I'm really sorry," Lu Sichen said.

"We're practically family, there's no need to be so polite," Xiang Yi said with a smile.

"Let's have breakfast," Xiang Yi said, gesturing to Lu Sichen.
