Fated to My Billionaire Husband

Chapter 924: Chapter 924: He Definitely Doesn’t Love You As Long As I Do Chapter 924: Chapter 924: He Definitely Doesn’t Love You As Long As I Do As he spoke, he took a jewelry box out of his pocket.

Then he knelt on one knee in front of her and looked at her devoutly.

“Xiao Yu, will you marry me?”

Jian Yufei was startled–it was a marriage proposal after all.

He moved way too fast…

Facing his hopeful gaze, Jian Yufei still shook her head resolutely, “No.”

“Why?”

Jian Yufei said with amusement, “Because I am not Xiao Yu.”

Gong Shaoxun hurriedly corrected himself, “I know your real name is Jian Yufei. From now on, I will call you Xiaoyu. Xiaoyu, will you marry me?”

“Still no.”

“Why?” Gong Shaoxun asked seriously.

This man’s feelings for her were real.

Jian Yufei didn’t want to delay him any further.

“Because I don’t love you.”

“Do you like me?”

“My feelings for you are like those of a sister for her younger brother.”

Gong Shaoxun frowned, “But I am older than you, right?”

“Yet, you feel like a younger brother to me.”

“Quibbling. In one word, you refuse my proposal because you don’t love me, correct?”

“Correct.”

Gong Shaoxun stood up, his face showing no sign of hurt: “Fine, I’ll wait for you to fall in love with me, and then I’ll propose again.”

“I won’t fall in love with you.”

“You will, because I love you every day. One day, you will fall in love with me too.”

Jian Yufei had never seen a boy who loved so simply before.

Does he love her without even considering all the reasons they can’t be together?

“Gong Shaoxun, there is a man who also loves me every day, and I have already fallen in love with him,” Jian Yufei said apologetically.

However, Gong Shaoxun said even more seriously, “In my life, I have only fallen in love with you. If he has loved others before, that means his love can easily change. But my love won’t, so he definitely doesn’t love you as enduringly as I do.”

She knew better than to take his words seriously.

Yet, Jian Yufei’s heart still ached briefly…

If only Ruan Tianling had always loved her.

She wished she could erase his past with Yan Yue–that woman disgusted her so much, especially now that she was carrying Ruan Tianling’s child.

It made her feel even more disgusted…

“Excuse me, I’m feeling a bit unwell. I’m going to rest upstairs,” Jian Yufei said apologetically.

Gong Shaoxun asked with concern, “What’s wrong? Shall we go to the hospital to have it checked out?”

It was her heart that felt uneasy…

“I’m fine, just a little tired,” Jian Yufei said and then headed upstairs.

Upon reaching her bedroom, she shut the door and let her body fall limply onto the bed.

“Ruan Tianling, I am pregnant with our child, do you know?”

Jian Yufei stared blankly at the ceiling, her hand gently resting on her stomach.

Nighttime–

Waves crashed against the rocks, making a splashing sound.

In a dark, cramped room, on a simple bed frame, coiled the body of a man.

Not sure what he was dreaming about, he suddenly woke from the nightmare.

His forehead was drenched in sweat…

“Damn it!” Ruan Tianling cursed under his breath.

This shabby, stifling room was practically suffocating!

He wiped the sweat from his forehead with his hand…

Getting up, he walked barefoot to the iron door and pounded on it forcefully: “Get me a bucket of water!”

Two armed thugs were guarding outside.

They glanced indifferently through the small window at the person inside.

One of them said arrogantly, “In the middle of the night, where can we get you water? You really think you’re some pampered young master here, but no one here is your servant.”
