Fated to My Billionaire Husband

Chapter 1939: Chapter 1939: Good Night, I Love You

Jian Yufei nodded lightly: ”It’s easier to act while he’s not home. If we wait any longer, he might notice something’s wrong.”

”Alright then, I’m here to support you. I’ll do whatever you say.”

Jian Yufei said gratefully: ”Thank you, cousin. You’ve really helped me a lot this time.”

Li Mingxi crossed her arms and laughed heartily: ”I committed myself to helping a stranger like Xiao Lang, so I should definitely do my best for you. Don’t be so polite with me, anyway, I love researching medicine. It’s my pleasure.”

Jian Yufei’s eyes flickered, and she tentatively asked: ”Cousin, you and Xiao Lang...”

”Don’t overthink it. There’s nothing between us. Alright, I admit I like him, but he doesn’t like me. I made it clear to him that I’ll forget about him, and we’ll just be friends in the future.” Li Mingxi said straightforwardly.

Jian Yufei said: ”Maybe Xiao Lang does have feelings for you.”

”Even if there are feelings, feelings aren’t love. I can’t wait any longer. Who can wait three or five years for someone like that? Let’s just say we’re not destined.”

Jian Yufei nodded and didn’t say anything more.

She couldn’t meddle in someone else’s romance, nor did she understand the intricacies of their relationship.

*********

Jian Yufei stayed at Li Mingxi’s house for a night, and the next day, she still didn’t go back.

Moreover, she left Li Mingxi’s house and found a new place to stay.

Tomorrow is the day Ruan Tianling returns, and Jian Yufei sat on the hotel balcony, her mind filled with thoughts of him.

In the evening, Ruan Tianling called as usual.

Jian Yufei answered, and his smiling voice came through: ”I’ll be back tomorrow, are you happy?”

”Mm, happy.” Jian Yufei smiled slightly.

Thinking about seeing her soon excited Ruan Tianling: ”I wish I could come back right now.”

”It’s better to come back tomorrow. It’s too late today.”

”My flight lands at 11 a.m. tomorrow. Come pick me up, I can’t wait to see you.”

”Okay.” Jian Yufei’s voice was flat, and Ruan Tianling sensed something was off.

”What’s wrong?”

”Nothing, I just watched a tragic movie, feeling a bit down.”

Ruan Tianling teased her: ”Movies aren’t real, don’t take them seriously. Stop watching those kinds of movies and watch more comedies instead.”

”Mm.”

”Honey, I really miss you. From now on, I’ll cancel these business trips. It’s pointless and I hate being apart from you.” Ruan Tianling said affectionately.

Jian Yufei’s heart tightened, clutching the phone: ”Get some rest. You must be exhausted these days.”

Ruan Tianling was reluctant to hang up.

”Let’s talk a little longer.”

”You’ll be back tomorrow. Save what you want to say for then, go rest now.” Jian Yufei firmly commanded.

Ruan Tianling chuckled: ”Alright. Goodnight, honey. I love you.”

Jian Yufei’s eyes suddenly reddened: ”Goodnight, I love you too.”

”You’re supposed to say, ’Goodnight, hubby, I love you.’” Ruan Tianling insisted, dissatisfied.

”...Goodnight, hubby, I love you.”

”I love you more,” Ruan Tianling said in a low voice.

Jian Yufei’s heart ached once more, the more he loved her, the more pain it brought her.

”I’m hanging up, sleep early.”

”Okay.”

Jian Yufei hung up and then turned off her phone.

She wouldn’t take any more calls. The next few days would be her period of suffering.

In truth, it would also be the beginning of Ruan Tianling’s pain.
