"I suddenly thought, you were once this good to him too." 0
Him? Wang Zhan? 0
I was stunned: "You..." 0
"Yes, I was jealous." 0
He lowered his head. 0
"I just imagined for a moment, 0
the things you used to do for him..." 0
"And I felt a tightness in my chest." 0
"Wanwan, I lost." 0
"What did you say?" 0
"I was a step behind him." 0
"I..." 0
I bit my lip: "What does it matter for you to say this now?" 0
"Right, it doesn't matter." 0
He chuckled lightly. 0
"I really was jealous of him, jealous to death." 0
"Xu Zheng..." 0
"I like you." 0
It slipped out of my mouth. 0
He suddenly looked up. 0
I looked at him seriously: "I really like you." 0
"Even though I've known Wang Zhan for a long time, 0
I've never had a normal relationship with him like I have with you." 0
"I only want to be with you now." 0
"Really?" 0
"Really." 0
 
 
He held my hand and asked, "Do you want to live with me?" 0
I blushed. 0
"Mm?" 0
He looked at me. 0
I nodded, "Yes." 0
"Really?" 0
"Really." 0
"No regrets?" 0
"No regrets." 0
"Good." 0
He hugged me tightly. 0
 
During the Dragon Boat Festival holiday, I took Xu Zheng back to my hometown. 0
It was Xu Zheng's first visit, and he behaved impeccably. 0
He brought a bottle of fine wine for my parents, 0
a valuable jade bracelet for my mother, 0
and a jade Buddha for my father. 0
My mother smiled widely and became increasingly warm towards him. 0
 
Wang Zhan also came back. 0
When he entered, a man followed behind him. 0
It was Ma Jia. 0
Marin was not there. 0
I found it a bit strange. 0
Last time at the hospital, Marin had seemed very close to Wang Zhan. 0
I instinctively glanced at Xu Zheng. 0
His expression was natural, showing no signs of anything unusual. 0
 
During dinner, Wang Zhan was quieter than usual. 0
He seemed to have something on his mind. 0
 
 
Ma Jia lightened the atmosphere. 0
Both families decided to eat at home, with my parents cooking. 0
I helped out in the kitchen. 0
My mom complained that I was in the way and sent me out. 0
I had no choice but to return to Xu Zheng's side. 0
"What's wrong?" he asked me softly. 0
"I was unwanted," I said, feeling wronged. 0
He chuckled, took my hand, and kissed my palm. 0
"What are you doing..." I blushed. 0
"Don't be shy." 0
He pinched my cheek. 0
"Huh?" 0
"Don't be shy," he repeated. 0
I lowered my head, not daring to look at him. 0
Suddenly, Wang Zhan stood up, his face pale. 0
"I'm full; you all take your time eating." 0
He turned and walked out. 0
"What's wrong with him?" My mom looked confused. 0
"It's nothing; he's been busy with work lately and under a lot of stress," I quickly explained. 0
My mom nodded and continued eating. 0
 
 
After dinner, I sat in the living room eating fruit. Xu Zheng was called away by my mom, who said that young people should chat with young people and not mix with our older generation. I smiled; my mom really treated Xu Zheng like a son-in-law. Wang Zhan was smoking on the balcony. I rarely saw him smoke. It seemed he was really troubled. I hesitated about whether to go over and ask him. He suddenly glanced at me. I instinctively stopped in my tracks. His expression darkened as he extinguished his cigarette and walked towards me. 0
 
"Let's talk," he said. 0
 
"Okay," I nodded. 0
 
"Shall we go to my room?" he asked. 0
 
"No," I shook my head. 0
 
"Why not?" he frowned. 0
 
"Let's go to the living room." 0
 
"Why?" 0
 
"There’s no reason." 0
 
He looked at me for a moment before nodding slightly. 0
 
"Alright, let's go to the living room." 0
 
In the living room, we sat facing each other. 0
