Boss Lu: A reborn life is destined to be without regrets!-Chapter 318 - 239. Love is Doubt

Moonlight evenly spread around the mattress, so gently it was suffocating.

Two pairs of little feet peeked out from the end of the blanket, wrapped tightly in the dim light, looking especially pale and delicate.

In such a serene environment, even whispers close to murmuring seemed to unintentionally amplify their impact.

Have you ever felt jealous?

Zhou Sinin propped up her chin like that, looking expectantly at her best friend.

"Of course."

But Guan Yongyi showed no hesitation at all as she embraced her shoulders, her warm cheek getting closer to the girl’s right ear.

"Eh?"

Zhou Sinin was taken aback.

"You!"

The short-haired girl put strength into her arms, pulling them close together, intimate and inseparable.

"Because you’re jealous, can’t you see it!"

"Indeed, favoring love over friends is human nature."

"Love will disappear, right?"

"Since you’ve been with that guy, how many times a week do you see me? How often did you see me before?"

"No comparison, no harm; suddenly being neglected like this, I’m also sad and jealous."

Guan Yongyi rattled on, her emotions coming at Zhou Sinin full force, sounding heartfelt and genuine.

"..."

Zhou Sinin bit her lip, her eyelashes fluttering, as she let her best friend hold her tightly in her embrace.

All the answers she had imagined fell through, and she couldn’t begin to analyze the details.

Jealous...

Jealous of me?

Thinking about it, it really was like that.

Since Lu Jincheng had become part of her life, naturally, the time she spent with her best friend had significantly decreased.

From Guan Yongyi’s point of view, feeling lonely and neglected was only natural.

A flawless, seamless response that was also entirely logical.

Could it be that she was overthinking?

Zhou Sinin lay on her best friend’s arm, her cheek pressed against her steady and long pulse, feeling her calm demeanor.

Peaceable.

She paused for a few seconds, then reorganized her words to respond.

"Babe, I’m sorry, I didn’t mean to neglect you, it’s just my first time being in a relationship, and maybe I’m not balancing things very well."

"I understand why you’re jealous, but..."

Zhou Sinin turned her hand back, pulling her best friend’s shoulder closer so they lay face to face, eye to eye.

"Being jealous of a sister, you’re barking up the wrong tree."

Her soft voice echoed around the bedroom.

"Because of Guan Guan, I can’t solve this issue either, being in love is just so joyful. Sometimes I also want to spend more time with you, but I can’t."

Zhou Sinin extended her finger, tapping on Guan Yongyi’s delicate clavicle under the strap of her nightgown, her lips curling into a smile again.

"There’s a voice in my head telling me how much I miss him."

"I want to eat with him, shop with him, hold hands with him in the sunset, even if he’s often too busy to be with me, I don’t mind."

"Even if I just sit beside him, not talking, just quietly watching him, that’s enough."

"..."

Guan Yongyi fell silent.

"Like, if I touch like this on you in the same spot, you wouldn’t react much, right?"

Zhou Sinin turned her finger into a palm, covering her best friend’s smooth, jade-like shoulder, whispering softly.

"But it’s different with him, his fingers, his lips, seem to have an indescribable magic, just a mere touch on me, and I feel like..."

"Alright, alright, stop."

Guan Yongyi pursed her lips and instinctively reached out, covering Zhou Sinin’s mouth.

"I know you two are close, but do you have to describe it in such detail?"

"No need."

As soon as she let go, Zhou Sinin’s voice emerged again, her distinctive soft Wu dialect making everyone’s hearts flutter.

"I know it’s hard to understand if you haven’t felt it before?"

"What I mean is, Guan Guan, this balance can’t be righted, why don’t you try dating too?"

"Because... favoring romance over friendship is only human nature."

"Who knows? You might be even more excessive? Try it and you’ll find out, men are really wonderful."

"Okay, don’t look so stern."

"My bad, my bad, I’ll tone down the public displays of affection, sorry~"

Once the radar locks onto a new target, it seems to lead down an unstoppable path.

Even Guan Yongyi’s reasonable and logical response to feeling jealous merely quenched Zhou Sinin’s probing any further.

It didn’t stop her from diving headlong into some new topics.

Topics that Guan Yongyi deliberately avoided late at night.

"Yeah, all the annoying flies have been chased away, I think you shouldn’t be prejudiced against men, try dating someone if you like them?"

"I’ve been so busy lately, I don’t have time for dating."

The short-haired girl’s face remained expressionless.

"That’s just an excuse, when you like someone, you find time anytime, even wish you could video call them while showering."

"Can you be a little more reserved, Zhou Sinin?"

"Speaking of which, Guan Guan, you were too absolute before. Boys being superficial is just one aspect, when push comes to shove, there are reliable men out there."

Zhou Sinin said with a meaningful smile.

"Like your boyfriend?"

"Exactly, I think it’s unnecessary to judge everyone the same way, otherwise imagine growing up and realizing you never truly experienced a relationship in college, how regrettable would that be?"

"Ha, you’re right."

An obvious probe.

The short-haired girl shivered inside and simply nodded along.

"Right... huh?"

Zhou Sinin spread her fingers and combed through her gathered hair ends, lifting her chin.

"Then help your sister out, seeing your happiness makes me think maybe I should give it a try too."

A stream of light flowed in the room, Guan Yongyi leaned against the headboard diagonally, her eyes cool but her lips curved in a smile.

Like a glacier melting, the sound of the wind everywhere suddenly stopped.

"No need for someone too outstanding, someone like Lu Jincheng would be fine."

Love is suspicion.

Love is recklessness.

Their mutual probing clattered back and forth in the confined space, rattling their spirits to the point where sleep could no longer hide.

The close sisters turned back to back and fell asleep.

In the long night, Guan Yongyi opened her eyes and silently picked up her phone, sending messages to her boyfriend.

"Too dangerous, help."

"She’s been probing all evening, asking me a lot of questions."

"I think she’s feeling that we’ve become too close."

"Good thing I was already prepared for these questions."

"You must be very careful in the future, you may not know, she has been extremely clever since childhood!"

On the other side, Zhou Sinin’s movements were equally quiet.

Her slender manicured nails lightly tapping the screen, editing messages not meant to be seen.

She also sent them to her boyfriend.

"Guan Guan says, she feels left out when we’re together, and she gets secretly jealous."

"What do you think?"
