Mr. CEO Wants to Renew Our Contract-Chapter 28: Do You Believe Me

She casually turned on the lamp and sat up, looking at him seriously, "You’ve been out for so long, and you still know to come back?"

"You’re at home, of course, I know to come back."

"Where did you go?" 𝐟𝚛𝕖𝚎𝕨𝗲𝐛𝚗𝐨𝐯𝐞𝕝.𝐜𝗼𝗺

"Gu Xichen called me, said He Meiwei was threatening to commit suicide, so I went to check on her."

Gu Lili couldn’t help but laugh out of anger, "What’s she to you now? Whether she lives or dies, what’s it to you? You’ve already broken up. She’s coming to you at this point, even wanting you to divorce me and marry her, is this something a sane person would do?"

"I have no feelings for her now, only sympathy." He looked into her eyes, "Trust me."

Gu Lili didn’t want to stay upset with him over this, "She said all those things to you, and you didn’t feel a thing?"

"Honestly, nothing at all," he explained, "If I hadn’t met you again, I wouldn’t have gotten back with her either."

"How long were you together?"

"About a year, and we’ve been apart for two years now, any feelings have faded over time."

"Then tell me," Gu Lili was curious, "You’re not into men, so why didn’t you sleep with her?"

Long Yubei suddenly laughed, his voice was naturally smooth and pleasant, and this laugh was even more so.

"Back then I didn’t think much of it, but looking back now, that’s really how it was. When I was with her, I never thought about sleeping with her." Long Yubei was honest, "There wasn’t a particularly impulsive moment, both of us were pure; I didn’t initiate, and she was reserved."

"Then why did you feel it with me?"

He hugged her snugly to lie down, stretched out his hand to peel off her pajamas, leaving her completely bare in no time.

"Because you have the ability to make me swell with desire."

Gu Lili blushed, "What did you go and say?"

"I clearly told her that it was impossible between us, what’s missed is missed. Basically, that’s the gist of it. Gu Xichen had even thrown her luggage out, but seeing her threatening to die, he let her back in. However, from Gu Xichen’s demeanor, it seemed like he really decided to break up with her."

Hearing this, Gu Lili didn’t ask further.

"That’s good."

Long Yubei kept kissing her, as if he could never get enough.

After a comfortable night’s sleep, in the morning they still heard the unpleasant report from Tang Qingli.

"Young master, Young Madam, both of your phones have been off from last night until now, but Gu Xichen called me here, saying He Meiwei was sent to the hospital around three in the morning."

"And then? What does that mean?"

Gu Lili turned on her phone and immediately called Gu Xichen back, and blurted out, "What do you mean? Whether He Meiwei is your ex-girlfriend or current girlfriend, can you not call outsiders like us?"

"I’ve decisively broken up with her." Gu Xichen added, "There’s no turning back, so this call was her idea, not mine. I’m not at the hospital, whether she lives or dies has nothing to do with me."

"Really cutting through the mess decisively and cleanly," Gu Lili said nonchalantly, "Weren’t you very fond of her? So fond you were almost crazy, she was such a good match for you, now, knowing her true face, you suddenly don’t like her?"
