He really wanted to loudly demand to know why Bibi Dong had changed her heart!
But when he thought about it carefully, what right did he have to interfere in Bibi Dong's affairs?
They had already broken up! And there was another woman's image in his heart, too!
At the thought of this, the bitterness at the corners of Yu Xiaogang's mouth deepened.
But when he remembered that another woman's image had already taken shape in his heart, Yu Xiaogang suddenly froze. Only then did he realize he'd forgotten about Liu Erlong.
He immediately prepared to go greet Liu Erlong. After all, it really wasn't right to leave her behind without a word and then go meet his old flame.
Especially since Liu Erlong's temper wasn't exactly the best!
Just then, he was startled to discover that someone had appeared beside him without his noticing.
It was Liu Erlong, who had noticed something was off with him and followed after him.
She stood beside Yu Xiaogang with a cold sneer, watching his performance as he and his first love staged a long-awaited reunion, acting as though they couldn't forget their old feelings.
Seeing this, Yu Xiaogang gave an awkward, sheepish smile and couldn't find anything to say.
After all, he was in the wrong! No matter how much he missed his old flame, he shouldn't have simply left his companion behind.
"Erlong..."
The truth was, the reason Yu Xiaogang could never forget Bibi Dong, even after falling for Liu Erlong, wasn't just that first love was hardest to forget. It was also because Bibi Dong had been so gentle when they were together, like an angel.
And Liu Erlong? With a Fire Dragon Martial Soul, how good could her temper be?
Put nicely, she was lively, frank, and every bit as capable as a man. Put less nicely, she was hot-tempered and impulsive!
She reined herself in somewhat when she was with him, but her nature was still not as gentle as Bibi Dong's.
And flaws weren't the problem. The problem was having something to compare them to!
Without comparison, there could be no hurt.
On top of that, Bibi Dong surpassed Liu Erlong in beauty, strength, and status. So Yu Xiaogang had never been able to fully accept Liu Erlong, and he could never forget Bibi Dong.
Another reason he couldn't forget Bibi Dong was that he was a man.
And men, well, few of them were content with what they had; they always wanted what they couldn't have.
Liu Erlong was what Yu Xiaogang already had in his bowl. She was already "his," so naturally, he didn't cherish something he considered to be his own.
Bibi Dong, on the other hand, was still in someone else's pot, and it wasn't certain who she belonged to. It wasn't certain she would be his. That was why Yu Xiaogang couldn't let go of Bibi Dong and kept hoping they could rekindle their old flame.
Yu Xiaogang also felt that he really was a bit of a scumbag, stringing one woman along while thinking about another.
But what could he do? It wasn't as if he wanted things to be this way!
Yet he truly couldn't forget Bibi Dong!
If only there were a way to have the best of both worlds!
For example, if Bibi Dong could get along peacefully with Liu Erlong?
But Yu Xiaogang knew that Bibi Dong was too proud to lower herself and share a husband with another woman. And given Liu Erlong's possessiveness, she would never willingly give him up!
So there was no chance the two of them would get along peacefully, let alone share the same man!
Perhaps this was just one of the troubles of adulthood!
As he thought about it, the melancholy in Yu Xiaogang's eyes deepened.
Elsewhere, Bibi Dong noticed Yu Xiaogang's gaze and a flicker of panic crossed her face. She immediately tried to pull her delicate hand from Qian Xunji's grasp.
Unexpectedly, Qian Xunji took the opportunity to pull her straight into his arms.
He wrapped an arm around Bibi Dong's slender waist and gazed at her affectionately, his voice infinitely gentle. "Dong'er, who is this? How come you've never mentioned him to me?"
Qian Xunji knew Yu Xiaogang, of course. After all, how could he gather someone's information without collecting a photograph of him?
But this time, he deliberately pretended not to recognize him.
The reason was simple: this would upset Yu Xiaogang more! Your ex hasn't even told her current partner that you exist. What did that mean?
Any man would understand!
Though, as far as Bibi Dong was concerned, Qian Xunji wasn't her current partner at all.
But that didn't matter. As long as Yu Xiaogang thought the two of them were a couple, that was enough!
With that first impression, and his own maneuvering, he had no doubt that he and Bibi Dong would eventually become a real couple!
