Autumn Leaf suddenly sat up from the sofa, shouting in disbelief.

"Senior, my brain is about to explode right now. Please don't tell me such an explosive thing, okay?"

Shu Can was also very depressed.

"Actually... "I only found out about it yesterday …"

Yesterday, the man had shouted at her while pinching the lighter she had given him all those years ago, Don't you know that giving a man a lighter means that he won't marry her? What do you mean by telling me now that you love someone else?

She was so scared that she almost fainted. She really didn't know that he had this intention. She only gave it to him as a gift when she saw him smoking. Where did he hear this fallacy from!?

"Senior, I'll be hanging up first!"

Autumn Leaf had been stunned for a long time before she came back to her senses. She hurriedly told Shu Can this. No way! She had to get back to him.

However, just as the call connected, before she could open her mouth, his slightly pleasant voice entered her ears.

"The cake tastes pretty good!"

When she thought of the cake she ate early in the morning, the corner of Li Leng's lips curled up slightly. Compared to those expensive and gorgeous cakes outside, the cake she made was fragrant but not greasy, and was really for eating, not for decoration.

Last night, after drinking wine with Gu Mo City, and recalling her phone call during the day, he actually went to her apartment as if he had been possessed by an evil spirit. Then, for the first time in his life, he revealed his sorrows and revealed his feelings in front of a woman.

When he carried the cake downstairs in the morning, Dragon One, who was waiting outside, almost had his eyes fall off. When he arrived at the company, Long Xiehan exaggeratedly dropped all the documents in his hands to the floor, staring at him with his mouth agape as he entered the office.

"Ugh …"

Autumn Leaf's hands trembled, and she almost threw her phone away. Her face began to turn red as well, burning all the way to her ears. That cake … She was really taken away by him!

But at this point, she couldn't save anything. He had already eaten everything, so she had to find a way to get that lighter back. It was better to love you than not to marry.

Thinking of this, she hurriedly suppressed her embarrassment and carefully asked,

"That... The lighter from last night... "Can you give it back to me …"

"Why?"

Zhuang Shixiong's face slightly darkened. He took out the lighter from his pocket and lazily played with it, opening and closing it while his thumb and the lid clicked and danced on his fingertips.

"This is a bit cheap... "I'm afraid I don't deserve your identity …"

Her small hands were covered with nervous sweat.

"Since you've already given them to me, why are you worrying about these!"

His voice sounded annoyed.

"Aiya, but …" How about... Can I give you something else instead? "

Autumn Leaf was so anxious that she wanted to run in front of him and snatch him away. What did he want from her? Why was he arguing with her over and over again?

"No need, this is good enough!"

He interrupted her without hesitation, not understanding why he had suddenly become so stubborn. The lighter in her hand didn't have any special characteristics. It looked cheap, but wasn't this her intention? He was not so vain.

"Then... "Alright …"

Seeing that he didn't have any intention of returning it to her, Autumn Leaf could only nervously give up, hoping that he didn't know the meaning.

After hanging up the phone, she buried herself in the sofa in frustration. She really wanted to shout out loud. These were probably the two most terrible things that she had experienced in her life. Sigh! She sighs but not just sighing.

After hanging up Autumn Leaf's call, Long Xiehan knocked on the door and came in. He put the lighter back into his pocket without batting an eyelid, and Long Xiehan, as usual, put the documents on his table and turned to leave.

"I heard you kidnapped someone yesterday?"

"He's just an acquaintance. It's not like he's being kidnapped."

Long Xiehan turned around and said indifferently, a flash of light appearing in his eyes.

Zhuang Shili raised his eyes and glanced at him, his gaze deep.

"It's not your style to be so uncomposed!"

Who in the Dragon Gate didn't know that Long Xilong's special assistance was like a pool of stagnant water? Even if the sky collapsed, he would probably remain calm.

"That's because I haven't met the right person. That's why I'm calm!"

Long XIhan's voice was still clear and indifferent, but his mind involuntarily recalled the strong repulsion she had towards him yesterday, as well as the deep disgust.

Zhuang Shixiong stood up and walked over to the wine shelf to pour two cups of wine, then handed one to him.

"Would you be interested in talking about your relationship with her?"

Two similarly tall and handsome men stood face to face, causing the empty office to light up. It was just a cold and gloomy, a handsome and elegant one.

In the Dragon Gate, other than him, Gu Mo City, Ji Chen Hao, and Quan Tiansheng, Long Xi Han was the most outstanding. They were usually together all day, but they only talked about some work or Dragon Gate matters. They rarely talked about their feelings, but it was also because their feelings were empty and had nothing to talk about.

"I can..." Give me another cigarette? "

Long Xiehan hesitated for a moment as he took the wine from Zhuang Shili's hand, a trace of pain flashing through his eyes.

Zhuang Shixiong slightly raised his eyebrows and stared at him with a surprised expression. In the end, he took out a cigarette and passed it to him. Everyone knew that he carried a lighter all day long, but he never smoked. Today, he was truly abnormal.

Then, he took the cigarette, turned around, and walked over to the sofa to sit down. Meanwhile, Zhuang Shili held his wine cup and walked in front of the huge French window, quietly listening to Long Xilan's story from behind as he sipped the wine in his hand.

As a child, he said, his parents had been drug dealers, and he had always been depressed by his identity as a parent.

When he was a teenager, he had been gloomy and introverted, acting alone all day long, locking himself in his own world. He was afraid of others knowing his parents' identities and being mocked by others, so he stubbornly refused to approach anyone until the first year.

On the first day of the year, they moved to the outskirts of the city and became her neighbors. She was a grade lower than him. In other schools, when he was in primary school, he had often heard her gentle and honest father sincerely instruct her: Can you not go home after school and play by yourself every time? Mom and Dad are worried about you, you know?

Sometimes, he would see her beautiful mother yell at her in exasperation: Shu Can you give me a bit of a girl's temperament, look at your hair? And look at your clothes?

And every time she ignored him, because the suburban house had a big yard with the door open, and sometimes when he passed her house she would make a face at him in embarrassment and then disappear, leaving her mother stamping her feet in anger.

At this time, he would always hear her mother look at him with a frown and say with great envy, "Look at that Xiehan next door! Even a boy is quieter than her! What a headache it is for a girl like her to run around every day!"

In his sophomore year, when she was admitted to his school as a freshman, her parents, almost as if they had found a savior, came to his house to beg him to take her to school every day. However, due to his parents' power, he reluctantly agreed.

She was bright and cheerful. She had nothing to worry about all day and displayed a sweet smile to anyone. This made him extremely jealous. a conversation between the two people he remembered most, when he had been fierce with her,

"Can you not laugh so badly?"

But she took his arm and said, unafraid of death,

"My name is Shuangshuang, so comfortable and brilliant. Of course I have to have such a bright smile. Otherwise, how can I be worthy of this name!"

At that time he had often felt that she was very noisy, and later he had often thought that if he had not been with her at that time, he might have died of depression.

It was just that, unexpectedly, when they met again after so many years, he had long since recovered, and was released from the shadows. Yet, she had fallen into the darkness, and it seemed that she was not happy at all.

What am I going to do to save you this time, my girl?

The summer after he graduated from junior high, his parents were killed by someone from the organization due to their identities being leaked. On the other hand, he managed to escape by a fluke.

When he had finally established himself and made himself strong enough, he had sought her out many times, but the family had long since moved away. He didn't understand why she would reject him like that when they met yesterday. She even loathed him. From what he could remember, she somewhat liked him.

Because he was too depressed, he started smoking in junior high school. One day, after school, he lowered his head and continued to smoke while walking alone in front of her, but she suddenly pulled him to a corner by the wall and mysteriously handed him something. He took it and saw that it was a lighter.

"Even though it's not good for you to smoke at such a young age, I don't think it's possible for you to quit!"

She rarely looks up from the floor,

"Remember, don't let my mom know. I saved the money for lunch to buy this!"

He looked down at the object in his hand. Lighter? Will he marry me?

Smoke curled up around her bright eyes. Her delicate and pretty face suddenly made him a little confused. He couldn't help but lower his head and kiss her tender lips.

The strong smell of tobacco instantly enveloped the two of them. She coughed non-stop and then suddenly pushed him away, glaring at him with a red face.

"Xuan Xiehan, you … "You're too lecherous, you …"
