Oh no! Drunk last night, I accidentally wandered into my ex-boyfriend's room.

My girlfriend had a crush on a guy during her school days, and she still keeps things related to that crush. What does that mean?

It was late at night, and all was quiet.

Lu Beiting saw the title on his phone's Google Play Store, paused for a moment, and then clicked on it.

The comments below were varied:

[Dude, you're doomed. Your girlfriend has someone else she truly loves, and she might just be using you as a substitute.]

This means your girlfriend is starting to like someone else.

It's very simple. It means she doesn't truly love you. Her true love is another stranger, do you understand?

I have a big, bright green hat here, bro, do you need it?

Dude, I only have one word for you: Break up.

The phone screen emitted a faint blue light, reflecting off his cold and expressionless face, outlining his taut jawline.

Lu Beiting turned off his phone, his eyes filled with gloom. After a moment, he went to the balcony, let the cold wind blow on him, and slowly lit a cigarette.

A faint, aching, and uneasy feeling spread throughout my chest.

-

The end of the year is fast approaching.

Lin Qian had gotten used to having Lu Beiting by her side, but for some reason, she always had a bad feeling.

This love, lost and then regained, was as beautiful as a fragile, crystal dream. She held it carefully in her palm, yet always felt that the dream would end at any moment.

My best friend Qiao Shuang called, "So you've been living with Lu Beiting all this time?"

"Um."

The voice on the other end rose: "Wow! That's so exciting! With his insatiable lust, wouldn't he kiss you until you cry eight hundred times a day?"

"..." Lin Qian's face flushed red, but she didn't answer, which was taken as an admission.

Lately, Lu Beiting has been kissing me every day whenever he gets the chance.

My forehead, cheeks and lips are almost numb from all the kissing.

But aside from kissing and hugging, he didn't go any further.

Lin Qian could sometimes sense the changes in his body, but he always managed to control himself, simply holding her to calm his breathing or taking a cold shower.

He's probably been holding it in lately... right?

Won't it break if I keep holding it in like this?

Lin Qian slumped onto the table and sighed, "Shuangshuang, I always feel that things won't go smoothly between us. Even if he likes me, his family definitely won't."

Why do you say that?

"Because we are not a good match, from family background to personality, we are not compatible."

Qiao Shuang said with exasperation, "Hey, don't be so pessimistic and anxious. Be optimistic. Just think of him as a top male model, easy to sleep with, with a great mouth, and the kind who can give you tons of gold coins. Just take advantage of him for free."

Lin Qian hummed in agreement. "By the way, his birthday is coming up soon, and I'm thinking about what gift to give him."

Qiao Shuang immediately perked up: "I can prepare a gift for you."

"what?"

"I've sent you the pictures, choose one yourself."

Lin Qian switched back to the chat page, clicked on the picture, and saw a scene that made her blood boil.

"you……"

Qiao Shuang: "I work in the lingerie industry, don't worry, I know more than you. Men are all drawn to this, without exception. Besides, with your amazing figure, he'd definitely get a nosebleed if you wore it."

"..."

December 31st is Lu Beiting's birthday.

That day, after getting off work, Lin Qian got into Lu Beiting's car as usual.

The car, however, was heading in another direction.

Lin Qian asked, "This isn't the way home...where are we going?"

Lu Beiting: "Let's go on a date."

Dating?

Watching a movie? Visiting an art museum? Hiking for blessings? Or going to an amusement park?

These are the entertainment activities that Lin Qian can think of for the time being.

Until, on the tarmac.

Lin Qian stood in front of a private helicopter.

I was completely dumbfounded.

The silver-white helicopter exudes an indescribable luxury, with powerful lines and a cool, sophisticated metallic sheen, conveying a sense of power poised to be unleashed.

Lu Beiting leaned against the side, his posture languid and casual, his voice low and husky:

"Princess, please board the plane."

Lin Qian glanced at the helicopter in disbelief, then looked at Lu Beiting, her eyes full of suspicion:

"You... drive?"

Lu Beiting replied matter-of-factly, "Hmm, what else?"

Lin Qian obediently put on the headset, fastened her seatbelt, and sat in the passenger seat. Only then did she belatedly feel a surge of worry and fear.

"Are you really sure you can drive?"

Lu Beiting: "Girlfriend, please trust your boyfriend more. I'll do anything if I want to."

As soon as he finished speaking, a huge roar of propellers rang out, bringing with it a powerful airflow.

The helicopter slowly ascended, getting further and further away from the ground.

Lin Qian's heart was pounding. She had a slight fear of heights and gripped her sleeves tightly in fear, not even daring to look down.

Even his voice was trembling:

"Lu Beiting... are you sure you can do it?"

Lu Beiting calmly controlled the helicopter, his slender fingers on the control stick resting steadily, his knuckles distinct, while his right hand gently pushed the pitch control stick, his movements fluid.

He raised an eyebrow slightly and said with a smirk, "A man can't say no."

Lin Qian explained, "I didn't mean that."

Lu Beiting gave a half-smile, feigning ignorance as he asked, "Which one?"

"..." They've fallen into a trap.

Lin Qian nervously pursed her lips. "I'm afraid of dying. Don't take me with you..."

Lu Beiting's gaze calmly fell on the instrument panel in front of him, a hint of a smile in his dark, deep eyes:

"Don't worry, your boyfriend is great. Not just in bed, he's good in the air too."

"..."

How can a man be so flirtatious?

The helicopter continued to fly smoothly even when it was about 200 meters above the ground.

People on the ground are smaller than ants.

Lin Qian's fear gradually dissipated.

"Lu Beiting, you're amazing!"

Lu Beiting didn't speak, but the corners of his lips curled up slightly, clearly enjoying it.

Lin Qian asked, "When did you learn to fly a plane?"

I got my driver's license last month.

"Why did you suddenly decide to learn that?"

Lu Beiting pursed his lips and remained silent.

Actually, it was Xiao Si who gave him the idea: "A date? Going to an amusement park, watching a movie, giving roses—honestly, those are all so tacky. You might as well give her a more novel experience, a romantic moment she'll never forget."

Lin Qian leaned closer, "You didn't learn this just for me, did you?"

"Yes."

The helicopter was getting higher and higher.

Lin Qian looked down at the entire imperial city and suddenly felt a sense of unreality.

She could even hear her own deafening heartbeat.

From this angle, the magnificent sunset can be seen more directly and clearly.

Predominantly light blue and orange, the clouds are fluffy with the glow of the sunset, like an overturned palette spreading out on paper in a stunning oil painting.

The air is filled with colorful tenderness, and every corner is romantic.

Lin Qian's eyes sparkled. "Lu Beiting, look, she's so beautiful."

Lu Beiting's gaze did not fall on Yun Cai, but instead occasionally landed on Lin Qian's face.

He casually rolled his Adam's apple.

"It is quite beautiful."

Lin Qian turned her head and saw Lu Beiting's well-defined profile, which looked even more alluring and seductive against the backdrop of the sunset.

My heart felt as if it had been scalded.

She immediately turned her head, her eyelashes drooping slightly.

If only the gap between them weren't so big...

After getting off the plane, Lin Qian still felt a sense of unreality, as if she had just had an unreal dream.

Now I'm awake from the dream.

Lu Beiting unbuckled her seatbelt and carried her out.

He didn't let go; instead, he hooked his arm around Lin Qian's slender waist and gently pulled her towards him.

"Do you like it this way?"

Lin Qian buried her face in his chest and nodded gently.

"like."

Immediately afterwards, the man leaned close to her ear, his hot breath slowly descending.

"So, girlfriend, do you have any gifts for me?"

Lin Qian tilted her head: "Take a guess?"

"I can't guess, I can't wait."

Lu Beiting stared intently at her, each word seeming to carry a tiny hook:

"I want to know in advance what birthday present my baby has prepared for me?"
