After being abandoned by my parents, I became a top boss

Song Ge paused, and continued: "If these are not enough to make you sure of your feelings, then let me ask you another question. If Shen Yunzhou and Li Chen had a conflict, which side would you take?"

Almost instantly, a figure appeared in Lu Nanfeng's mind. She was slightly confused because it was him.

Without waiting for her to speak, Song Ge said, "I think you already have the answer in your mind. I won't ask who it is. Just know it in your heart."

After a pause, she continued, "Although I don't have much experience in love, I know all these things. Besides, you are in a state of confusion now, so it's normal that you can't see clearly. Calm down and think about it, and you will figure it out."

After saying that, he sighed again, "But this is also my fault. If I hadn't been so determined to bring you and Shen Yunzhou together, this wouldn't have happened."

"At that time, I was thinking about going out on a mission, and I was afraid that I might not be able to come back. I also didn't want you to be trapped in the sadness of Li Chen's sacrifice, so I thought about finding you someone you could entrust your life to before the mission."

"I never thought that I would return safely in the end, and Li Chen didn't die. If I had known this earlier, I would never have put you two together."

"But to be honest, as your best friend, I hope you can follow your heart and find someone you truly love and spend your life with him or her."

After listening to her words, Lu Nanfeng gradually calmed down, "I understand, thank you, Song Ge."

After hanging up the phone, Lu Nanfeng sat in the car for a long time.

When Song Ge asked her the question just now, the first person she thought of was Li Chen, and no matter how hard she tried to tip the scales towards Shen Yunzhou, she could not get over the hurdle in her heart.

Perhaps what Shen Yunzhou said was right. Li Chen meant much more to her than he did to her.

In this case, she really should look into her own heart and not make the same mistake over and over again in matters of love.

After thinking it through, she started the car and drove back to the castle.

After parking the car, she took a deep breath and adjusted her mood before pushing the door and getting out.

When I stepped into the main castle and came to the living room, I saw Mr. Lu and Li Chen sitting on the sofa and chatting.

When he saw her, Mr. Lu smiled and said, "Where have you been? Why did you come back so late?"

"Let's go out and talk about something. Grandpa, why are you still awake so late?"

"Isn't this Ah Chen here? I'm glad we chatted for a while. Do you want to sit down and chat for a while?"

"No, I'm a little tired and want to go back to my room first."

"That's fine. Just take a good rest if you're tired."

Lu Nanfeng nodded, "Good night, Grandpa."

After saying that, he went upstairs.

Although Li Chen was chatting with Mr. Lu, he looked at Lu Nanfeng from time to time. Although she concealed it very well, he always felt that she was not in a good mood.

Could it be... that he had an unpleasant conversation with Shen Yunzhou?

"Achen, it's getting so late. You might as well not go back and just stay in the castle."

"Okay, thank you grandpa."

"You're welcome. Then you should go to bed early. This man is old and can't sit still."

"Okay, I'll send you off."

Mr. Lu waved his hand, "No, I'm not too old to walk, why do I need you to send me off?"

After he finished speaking, he stood up and walked slowly to the second floor.

At this time, Lu Nanfeng was standing on the balcony of the bedroom, looking at the night outside, with a bit of sadness in his eyes.

When there was a knock on the door, she calmed down and went to open the door. Seeing that it was Li Chen, she raised a smile and asked, "Why are you here?"

"I came to see you, is everything ok?"

"What's the matter?" She said, making way for him: "Come in first!"

There was no light in the room. There was only moonlight coming in through the floor-to-ceiling windows. It wasn't very bright, but I could barely see things.

Li Chen stepped inside, and Lu Nanfeng walked towards the balcony. "Is Grandpa asleep?"

"He just returned to his room." He followed her. "Although he said he was happy to see me and chatted with me for a while, he was actually waiting for you. When he saw you come back, he naturally returned to his room."

Lu Nanfeng smiled and said, "Grandpa cares about me in this way, but he never expresses it out loud."

"Aren't you too?"

Lu Nanfeng stopped and looked back at him, "How did you know that?"

"You said nothing happened? But what about the reality?" He walked closer to her and carefully observed her expression through the faint moonlight. "Although you concealed it very well, I can still see that you are in a bad mood."

"You have such a sharp eye. Do you want to guess how my conversation with Shen Yunzhou went?" She said, turning and walking towards the balcony.

Li Chen followed behind him, "You...didn't reach an agreement."

"Can you tell that?" She glanced sideways at Li Chen who was standing beside her.

"If we had reached an agreement, Xiao Feng'er wouldn't be like this." He said, looking at her.

Lu Nanfeng retracted his gaze and said, "You are right. We did not reach an agreement, but my bad mood is not because of this."

"what is that?"

She looked at the wide courtyard lit up by lights and said, "I think I am smart in everything, but I am a mess in love and can't see my own heart clearly."

After a brief pause, she looked at Li Chen with a serious look in her eyes, "Li Chen, they said, I like you."

Li Chen's heart tightened, and he met her eyes that sparkled like stars, and asked seriously: "So, what do you think?"

"If you and Shen Yunzhou were standing in front of me at the same time, I would choose you."

This is her truest thought.

Perhaps this is too cruel for Shen Yunzhou, but someone is bound to get hurt in this competition.

She is not a person who would drag her feet. Now that she knows what is in her heart, she will definitely draw a clear line and bring everything out in the open to avoid causing them more harm.

She retracted her gaze from Li Chen, looked up at the bright moon in the sky, thought of something, and said, "Do you know? He once compared me to the bright moon in the sky, bright and flawless, and I also see him as the bright moon, clean and pure. Perhaps in our hearts, we both regard each other as the best person."

"But he is the real Lang Yue, and I am not. He is a very good person, humble, polite, and motivated. Just like how we have come to this point, if he had just nodded, I would definitely not abandon him. But he took the initiative to withdraw in order to fulfill my wish."

"I, Lu Nanfeng, am sorry to Shen Yunzhou." She said, looking at the bright moon in the sky, a tear slipped out of the corner of her eye, "I will double what I owe him today in another way in the future, as a way to repay my debt to him."

Li Chen raised his hand to wipe away the tears on her face, "It's not your fault, it's my fault."

Lu Nanfeng looked at him, only to hear him say: "If I had never hidden the fact of my sacrifice from you, Shen Yunzhou would not have had the chance, and nothing would have happened."

"Are you so confident?"

"I believe you. You have me in your heart, and I also have you."

Time seemed to stand still. Lu Nanfeng looked at him. Could it be that he really...

"you……"

"That's what you think."

Lu Nanfeng avoided his sight. It was true that she liked him, but... did he like her too?

This……

It was just a guess before, but now that it has been confirmed, she feels like she is in a dream.

Maybe I experienced too many things that day and I couldn’t digest it all at once.

Let her take her time.

"what happened?"

"I...I want to calm down for a moment, okay?"
