A secret tryst? Her brotherly love triangle backfired.

Chapter 124 "Can you give my girlfriend back?"

Hearing this, Shen Xianyu laughed in exasperation, "Should I say a few words of praise to you?"

After being reminded by him, Tang Wanwan finally remembered that he could be considered a 'victim'.

A wave of shame washed over her, and she managed a weak smile. "I'm sorry."

In their recent meetings, the phrase she uttered most often was "I'm sorry." Shen Xianyu's initial anger and resentment had transformed into a calm and composed demeanor.

At this moment, he accepted her apology without changing his expression, and even nodded slightly in agreement, saying, "Since you feel sorry, then you should think of a way to make it up to me."

He said calmly, "I lack nothing, except that my girlfriend ran off with someone else for no apparent reason."

"..."

Tang Wanwan stared at him silently.

His eyes were filled with helplessness.

Shen Xianyu felt a sharp pain in his heart and could no longer hold back, so he reached out and hugged her.

"little bastard!"

His eyes were bloodshot, and he was gritting his teeth.

Cool tears streamed down her neck.

Tang Wanwan's relatively relaxed mood suddenly tightened.

“…Don’t cry,” she pursed her lips, “It’s my fault, don’t cry.”

She made him cry many times.

That's a real bastard.

"Wanwan, hug me,"

Shen Xianyu choked out softly, "Hug me."

Tang Wanwan was helpless against him. She stiffly raised her hand, grasped the hem of his clothes, and without hesitating for long, slowly wrapped her arms around his waist.

She hugged him.

"Don't cry, your crying makes me want to cry too."

Her voice was slightly hoarse, "I'm sorry, Shen Xianyu, I'm so sorry for hurting you like this."

She was too panicked at the time to care about anything else.

If it were now, she would never break up with him in that way.

It caused him such great harm.

Shen Xianyu didn't speak, but silently held her.

He could sense her deep apology and remorse.

But that's not what he wants.

“Wanwan…” Looking up from the crook of her neck, Shen Xianyu realized that her eyes had also turned red at some point.

Just as she said, he cried, and she wanted to cry too.

It would break my heart.

They can empathize.

He reached out and touched the corner of her reddened eyes, and asked her softly, "Can you give my girlfriend back?"

Tang Wanwan was stunned and stared at him blankly.

Shen Xianyu slowly lowered his head and placed a kiss on her eyelids. "Tell me, will I ever see my girlfriend come back in this lifetime?"

First Jiang Yanzhi, then Gu Yunyi.

The former was good for her health, so he gritted his teeth and gave in, not daring to bother her any longer.

A few days later, the latter appeared.

She attracted one trouble after another.

She was soft-hearted towards this person and moved by that person.

I can't bear to part with this, and I can't let go of that.

If things continue like this, what will happen when she recovers and no longer needs Jiang Yanzhi? Will she still be willing to come back to him?

Shen Xianyu used to be confident in her own uniqueness.

He will always be different to her.

But now, he no longer has confidence.

He saw with his own eyes that she was embraced and kissed by Jiang Yanzhi.

She saw with her own eyes that Gu Yunyi was holding her, and she let him hold her.

She could show the same favoritism to other men as she did to him.

He no longer dared to have any confidence.

He was too scared.

Her lips, pressed against her eyelids, were trembling with fear.

Tang Wanwan certainly sensed it.

Her first reaction was heartache, an intense heartache, and she quickly tightened her grip on his arm.

“I will come back,”

Without hesitation, she promised, "I promise you, once I've completely broken up with Jiang Yanzhi, if... if you haven't changed your mind by then, I'll come back."

Young Master Gu lowered himself, feigning weakness and acting submissive, and the promises he had received despite bowing his head repeatedly were now given in just a few words.

Once the words were out, Tang Wanwan didn't regret them. She hugged the boy in front of her, afraid that he would cry again, and carefully coaxed him, "Don't be like this, don't be like this... I promise, I will never lie to you again."

I'll never lie again. What a touching love confession.

It was from the girl he had loved for ten years.

At this moment, it seems that even the greatest pain can be erased.

My heart, which had been aching for more than ten days, was easily soothed by just one sentence.

Shen Xianyu stared at her intently, trying his best to suppress his shameful joy, and asked her, "Do you mean what you say?"

Tang Wanwan nodded and said seriously, "I keep my word."

When school starts, the female lead appears, and he falls for someone else—that's one thing.

If not, if he remains determined to only have her.

Does that mean the so-called devoted male supporting character in the dream is fake?

Those plot points can be deviated from.

If that's the case, why can't she, the supporting female character, be with the supporting male character?

They were lovers to begin with, and they loved each other from the beginning.

Shen Xianyu believed it completely.

He took a deep breath, a hint of joy welling up in his eyes, and cupped her face, about to kiss her.

"No!" Tang Wanwan turned her head away.

His lips landed on her cheek.

The joy in Shen Xianyu's eyes froze, replaced by a hint of hurt.

Tang Wanwan explained softly, "No matter what, I have a boyfriend now, I shouldn't do this."

……

That's really principled.

Shen Xianyu pursed his lips slightly, "When he asked you to meet him in private, he didn't consider me at all."

He loves her and can tolerate her without limits.

But not others.

It is a fact that Jiang Yanzhi disregarded brotherhood first, stealing his brother's girlfriend, showing no sense of morality whatsoever.

So why is he now using his sense of morality to restrain himself?

He will not be bothered by so-called brotherly feelings.

Tang Wanwan ignored his fallacious reasoning.

She said, "He didn't kiss me that day either."

I hugged him.

He kissed her cheek.

That's all.

They meet privately like this now, embracing each other.

It won't be much better than that night.

My phone started vibrating.

It was a location sent by Jiang Yanzhi.

He arrived at the restaurant.

"I have to go." Tang Wanwan pushed the person in front of her away.

She's going to have dinner with her boyfriend.

Shen Xianyu felt a pang of sadness and instinctively didn't want to let the person go.

But he dared not.

Being with Jiang Yanzhi is good for her health.

He couldn't stop her, he couldn't get in her way.

A feeling of pain and helplessness swept over her. Shen Xianyu lowered his head and stared at her without blinking. "Don't take this charade too seriously and actually fall in love with him."

Upon hearing this, Tang Wanwan's heart pounded. Before she could even process what he was saying, his gaze made her feel extremely uncomfortable.

She nodded quickly, "I won't fall in love with him."

How could she fall in love with the male lead?

Even if it's just a superficial crush, she has to be careful not to get too involved.

"Don't worry," Tang Wanwan thought for a moment, then reached out and wrapped her arms around his neck, kissed him on the cheek, and whispered, "I really have to go."

After saying that, he turned around and went to open the door.

My wrist was grabbed.

Shen Xianyu touched his cheek where he had been kissed and said, "Stay away from Gu Yunyi and don't provoke him."

"I know!"

She knew that.

She was indeed attracted to Gu Yunyi.

Perhaps it was that kiss.

Perhaps it's because of that reply.

But she ultimately stuck to her principles and refused.
