Chapter 130: Seizing by Cunning
What does that mean?
Could something have been answered incorrectly?
I have truly been loyal to him.
I sneaked a glance at him, "Huh?"
"Wanwan, you wouldn't cheat on me not because you like me, but because you can't bear to let go. Ah, winning your heart is so difficult, a long and arduous task." Yu Longting said with a sigh as he pulled me into his embrace.
So that's what he wanted to hear me say.
Has he won my heart?
"I remember your first love, was it Ye Jiqing?" Yu Longting asked me gravely.
He had been in my home for so many years.
He probably knew a lot about me like the back of his hand.
I answered truthfully, "Yes, I was together with him during my first year of high school, and we only held hands, there were no other intimate actions."
After all, he had said he was pure and chaste with me.
That meant I should be his only one.
In comparison, it seemed somewhat unfair to him that I still had one relationship.
"Which hand?" he asked.
I didn't understand, "Which hand?"
Yu Longting stressed every word, "Which hand did you hold with him?"
"The left hand!" I sullenly raised my left hand.
I thought to myself, I am right-handed if my left hand was chopped off.
At least I would still have my right hand to work with!
"Hmm." Yu Longting grabbed my left hand, gently caressing it.
Over and over, tirelessly.
Like an art lover caressing his prized possession.
Leaving his own mark and scent, overlaying the former traces left by other owners, filled with an extreme possessiveness.
I pledged my loyalty again, "I have only ever dated Ye Jiqing, and after half a term, we broke up."
Yu Longting asked leisurely, "Why did you break up?"
He might not know everything about my school life.
So perhaps that's why he asked.
I frankly admitted, "Ye Jiqing had poor health and had come to the countryside to recuperate, which is why he transferred to our school.
Our relationship was discovered by his mother.
His mother then pressured the school leadership, and soon I was persuaded by the school to leave, and then... I dropped out and didn't continue my studies…"
"Wanwan, I would never leave you for anyone else." Yu Longting suddenly said deeply.
I was almost unable to withstand his profound love, and after coming back to my senses, I chuckled, "How could he compare to you? He started dating my deskmate right after breaking up with me."
"Indeed, he can't compare to me. You were forced to drop out and yet he didn't even bother to find out why, easily giving up on you. Your deskmate must have pursued him to the rural school, right?" Yu Longting's lips curled up, guessing the entirety of the past events completely and thoroughly.
Beyond being the powerful Snake Lord, he also had a particularly insightful heart.
I guess knowing that Xia Xi could be with Ye Jiqing without being split by Mrs. Ye meant that Xia Xi must come from an excellent family background.
My heart shrunk, and my memory traced back to many years ago in an instant, my eyes narrowing, "You are completely right, Xia Xi comes from an excellent family, grew up with Ye Jiqing, and was very angry upon transferring schools and discovering I was with Ye Jiqing."
"Xia Xi did a lot of torturous and deceptive things to me, and one time, I almost died."
"Do you know how well Xia Xi can pretend? Once she was in front of Ye Jiqing, she would act so kind and gentle. I told Ye Jiqing, but he didn't believe a word I said; it's not surprising that those two ended up together."
Rather than saying I was forced to leave school by Ye Jiqing's mother, it's more accurate to say I was seeking an escape.
Although I lost the opportunity to attend school, at least I wasn't tormented daily.
One thing Ye Jiqing's mother and Xia Xi had in common was that they appeared very gentle and demure on the surface, but behind closed doors, they were incredibly domineering.
"Hmm, those two match each other well. So, why did this scumbag suddenly come looking for you?" Yu Longting asked me.
I laughed softly, looking at Yu Longting, "Xia Xi died by suicide for Ye Jiqing, and Ye Jiqing thought he was haunted by her ghost, so he asked Wei Yao for help, and Wei Yao chose me."
"Let's not talk about those unpleasant people anymore. It's not worth allowing some insignificant people to affect our mood. Are you hungry? Would you like something to eat?" Yu Longting, seeing my peculiar expression and the coldness in his own eyes, still managed to remain extremely gentle.
I nodded, picked up the spoon, and said to him, "I'd like some glutinous rice balls, colorful ones with fruit flavors."
"Hmm, I'll feed you," Yu Longting said.
I was embarrassed, "I can eat by myself."
"It's a bit of fun," he said.
Seeing him bring the spoonful of glutinous rice balls to my mouth, I bit into the glutinous rice balls and then hesitated, "Um... will you mind? I had a relationship."
"Su Wan, are you silly? You were boldly seized by me; have you forgotten?" Yu Longting revealed a resigned expression and pinched my cheeks, puffed from eating the glutinous rice balls.
