He also really wanted to loudly demand why Bibi Dong had changed her heart!

However, upon careful reflection, what right did he have to interfere with Bibi Dong?

They had already broken up! Besides, he already had the shadow of another woman in his heart!

Thinking of this, the bitterness at the corners of Yu Xiaogang's mouth deepened.

But as he thought about the shadow of that other woman in his heart, Yu Xiaogang was suddenly stunned, only then realizing he had forgotten about Liu Erlong.

Immediately, he prepared to go and greet Liu Erlong; after all, it was truly not right to leave her behind without a word just to come and see an old flame.

Not to mention, Liu Erlong's temper was not exactly pleasant!

Yet, just at that moment, he was startled to discover that a figure had appeared beside him at some point.

It was Liu Erlong, who had noticed his strange expression and followed him.

At this moment, she was standing beside Yu Xiaogang with a cold sneer, watching his performance, watching him and his first love stage a scene of a long-awaited reunion and lingering old affections.

Seeing this, Yu Xiaogang wore a sheepish smile, feeling too awkward to speak.

After all, he was in the wrong here!—No matter how much he missed his old flame, he shouldn't have just left his partner aside.

"Erlong..."

In truth, the reason Yu Xiaogang could never forget Bibi Dong, even when Liu Erlong was already in his heart, was not just because a first love is the most unforgettable.

It was also because when Bibi Dong was with him, she was too gentle, like an angel.

And what about Liu Erlong? For someone whose martial soul was a Fire Dragon, how good could her temper be?

To put it nicely, her temper was lively and forthright, not inferior to any man; to put it bluntly, it was irritable and reckless!

Although she had restrained herself while with him, her personality was ultimately not as gentle as Bibi Dong's.

And in all things, one doesn't fear flaws, one fears comparison!

Without comparison, there is no hurt.

Added to the fact that Bibi Dong was more beautiful, noble, and powerful than Liu Erlong, Yu Xiaogang had always found it hard to fully accept Liu Erlong and even harder to forget Bibi Dong.

Beyond that, another reason he couldn't forget Bibi Dong was simply because he was a man.

And well, men—there are few who don't eat from the bowl while eyeing what's in the pot.

—To Yu Xiaogang, the current Liu Erlong was the food in his bowl, already his "possession in the bag." Naturally, he wouldn't cherish something that he felt "belonged to him."

On the contrary, Bibi Dong was the food in the pot; it wasn't certain who she belonged to, and she wasn't necessarily his. Therefore, Yu Xiaogang had always been reluctant to let go of her, constantly thinking about rekindling their old flame.

Yu Xiaogang also felt that he was indeed a bit of a scumbag, dragging one woman along while thinking of another in his heart.

But what could he do? He didn't want it to be this way either!

Yet, he truly could not forget Bibi Dong!

If only there were a way to have the best of both worlds, how wonderful that would be?

For instance, if Bibi Dong could live in peace with Liu Erlong?

But Yu Xiaogang also knew that with Bibi Dong's pride, it was impossible for her to lower her head and share a husband with another woman; and with Liu Erlong's possessiveness, it was equally impossible for her to hand him over to someone else!

Therefore, having them live in peace was destined to be impossible, let alone sharing the same man!

Perhaps this was the trouble of being an adult!

Thinking this, the melancholy in Yu Xiaogang's eyes deepened.

On the other side, noticing Yu Xiaogang's gaze, a flash of panic crossed Bibi Dong's face, and she immediately tried to pull her slender hand from Qian Xunji's grasp.

Unexpectedly, Qian Xunji took the opportunity to pull her directly into his arms.

Reaching out to wrap his arm around Bibi Dong's slender waist, Qian Xunji looked at her with doting eyes, his tone incredibly gentle, "Dong'er, who is this? Why have I never heard you mention him before!"

Qian Xunji naturally recognized Yu Xiaogang; after all, how could one collect information on a person without collecting photos?

However, this time, he deliberately pretended not to know him.

As for the reason, it was simple: this was the best way to provoke Yu Xiaogang!—Your ex-lover hasn't even mentioned your existence to her current partner; what does that signify!

Any man would understand!

Even though Bibi Dong didn't actually acknowledge him as her current partner.

However, it didn't matter; as long as in Yu Xiaogang's eyes, he and Bibi Dong were a couple, that was enough!

With this first impression, combined with his actions, he wasn't worried that he and Bibi Dong wouldn't become a real couple eventually!
