"..."

The atmosphere fell into silence, the curtain on the balcony was slightly opened, revealing Wu Wenyue’s scrutinizing eyes. Because Zhao Qingge was sitting with her back to her, Wu Wenyue dared to show her face, and even silently hinted to Li Peifeng; thanks to his skill of "Shared Dream," Li understood Wu Wenyue’s intent completely.

[If she doesn’t say it, you say it, make it clear to her, the relationship will be teacher-student in the future! Reduce contact, part ways after graduation, and be well!]

How can I possibly say that?!

Although Li Peifeng had just told Wu Wenyue to give up her fantasy, a small part of him was still hopeful. If there was even a sliver of chance, he would still try to fulfill that dream. So it’s impossible for him to completely sever contact with Zhao Qingge, even if Wu Wenyue ends up hating him, blaming him, or even beating him to death, Li Peifeng couldn’t do it.

This was the Li Peifeng who wouldn’t succumb to wealth or power, who faced life and death indifferently!

"I..."

Li Peifeng softly began, Zhao Qingge stared at him, but quickly turned her gaze to the screen as if she couldn’t bear to look at him.

"I still like you."

Li Peifeng didn’t care how Wu Wenyue behind the curtain reacted to his words, he candidly expressed his feelings: "It’s more than just liking, it’s a desire a thousand times stronger for both my body and soul. I can’t live without you."

Zhao Qingge’s eyelids drooped slightly: "I don’t know what you’re talking about."

She was also unaware that the curtain behind her was violently swaying without any wind in the room...

Wu Wenyue couldn’t help but completely pop her head out, even pointing her finger at Li Peifeng’s nose, silently cursing in fury;

[Beast! How can you still have the face to say you like someone else with the mouth you kissed me with a second ago? You’re a damn beast!]

Turning around only to see the blood-red moon, I persist so stubbornly.

Indeed, I won’t give up!

Li Peifeng pretended not to see Wu Wenyue’s actions, sat down, and gazed at Zhao Qingge: "I know saying this seems wrong, contemptible, like I’m using love as an excuse to act unjustly, morally corrupt, doing ugly things, but I still want to say it."

"I love you. From the first Shared Dream, I understood, I love your repeats, your contradictions, your hesitations, your criticisms and tenderness towards me, and I also love your courage to stand up against reality for this relationship, but."

The tone paused, Li Peifeng’s face showed a hint of guilt: "But I might not be worthy, I can’t give the things you want, I can’t force you... I also don’t know what to do..."

[I’ll tell you what to do, you should open the door, walk onto the balcony, and jump down from this nine-story building, headfirst! Go die!!]

Wu Wenyue frantically clinging to the curtain, a volcano erupting within, but still restrained the urge to rush out.

Contrarily, Zhao Qingge’s heart was calm, with a hint of joy, looking at Li Peifeng with eyes that settled down: "You don’t know what to do?"

"Hmm." Li Peifeng hesitated: "I truly don’t know..."

Zhao Qingge’s hands slowly lowered from her shoulders, pursed her lips, and leaned back in her chair: "Then take your time to think, let me know once you’ve figured it out, I’m a bit... sleepy."

After finishing, she sat on the chair pretending to sleep.

What does it mean? Pretending to sleep? It’s self-evident!

But Wu Wenyue didn’t understand, she was puzzled, what’s going on? What’s happening? Damn... Li Peifeng!! Would you dare to kiss her?

Are you kissing her right before my eyes?!!!!

Indeed, after much hesitation, Li Peifeng kissed her, but only on the cheek. After all, Wu Wenyue was staring round-eyed from behind the curtain, he didn’t dare to be ’too much’; who would’ve thought Zhao Qingge after the cheek kiss, would furrow her brows, directly open her eyes of hesitation, instantly her gaze turned determined, and she turned to kiss him back.

And it wasn’t just one kiss, it was continuous...

ヽ(｀⌒´メ)ノ

This time Wu Wenyue truly couldn’t hold back, her hands clenching the curtain tightly into fists, ready to pull it open and reveal herself.

"Knock, knock, knock~~"

Knocking sounds echoed again...

"!"

Li Peifeng and Zhao Qingge immediately separated, exchanging glances, Wu Wenyue quickly pulled her head back, the wildly flapping curtain finally calmed down.

"Open the door!"

Huang Tianxuan directly spoke from outside, sounding slightly impatient: "I’m delivering a parcel for you!"
