Without finishing his words he turned to leave the dining room.
Gu Jin didn’t stop him and only stared at his back.
Why is he so loyal to her?
Why couldn’t she be his fiance?
Why can’t he be hers?
Gu Jin’s mind was filled with all those questions.
For a moment she felt like dragging Long Yifan and asking him what she could do to make him like her...
Just like how he likes his fiance.
If possible she even wants to become that fiance...
To say she wasn’t jealous would just be a lie.
Even she didn’t understand why she liked Long Yifan so much.
So much that she who had such high self-esteem wanted to change for him...
Gu Jin felt a lump in her throat.
She was truly missing her grandpa today.
Maybe if he was present here she would have hugged him to suppress her sadness.
Gu Jin could only close her eyes.
She truly didn’t understand how to vent the sadness in her heart.
The anger, the jealousy, and the envy she was feeling toward Long Yifan’s fiance was...something she couldn’t describe.
This was the first time Gu Jin understood a big problem.
She thought that with time she would gradually forget Long Yifan. But as time passed, she only found herself getting attracted to him even more.
It was to the point that she was ready to sacrifice her morals...
No!
Gu Jin gritted her teeth.
She can’t continue like this.
If this went on, she would either break her principles or do some inappropriate stuff.
God knows how frustrating that would be.
Not to mention...what if Long Yifan started to hate her or feel disgusted?
No! Even if she can’t have him, she can’t let him hate her.
Gu Jin hid her face in her hands.
Just then the head butler entered with the maids.
One by one spicy dishes and some light dishes were placed on the table.
Once her emotions were under control, Gu Jin sat down and started to eat.
Slowly the entire 12 dishes end up in Gu Jin’s stomach.
Even though Gu Jin was sweating due to the spiciness, she didn’t stop.
After she ate her dinner, she left the dining room.
.....
Study.
Long Yifan was looking at the moon with a forlorn look on his face.
Gu Jin’s blushing face kept on flashing in his mind.
Why did she meet him so late?
If only she had met him earlier he would have never made that deal...
If only he could go back in the past, he wouldn’t be suffering so much.
Suddenly his phone made a ’ding’ sound.
Long Yifan gave his phone a glance and after some thought opened the messaging app.
The message was from his best friend Fei Hanzhou.
It was a photo with the line, ’I never believed that someone could cheat on you.’
In the photo, his fiance and his ’big brother’ were kissing each other.
Long Yifan wasn’t surprised.
After all, his fiance was a great schemer.
She knew he couldn’t break the engagement even if he wanted to.
Even if he presented the evidence, until and unless she had sex with someone else before their marriage, they could never break off their engagement.
His fiance was smart enough to never let anyone know that she was having many affairs.
In front of everyone, she was a girl who loved him so much that she could die for him.
But Long Yifan knew that if she got the chance she wouldn’t hesitate to kill him. Of course, she would only do that after their marriage.
She didn’t like him. The reason was pretty simple.
Even though he was powerful and a bit successful in the eyes of others, in the eyes of top families he was still a nobody.
Till the time he was in Long Family, he was considered a sought-after bachelor. Of course, some of it was also because of his mom’s side of the family.
