Chapter 332

‘When I remove all the obstacles, you will be able to return to your previous life, so please wait patiently.’ Gong Cheng thought inwardly.

“I’m fine.”

Perhaps Xu Jing sensed Gong Cheng’s heavy heart, he was flustered.

He now knew that Gong Cheng was hiding something from him, but he couldn’t bring himself to ask at the sight of the grave look on Gong Cheng’s face.

He just stood there, not daring to move in Gong Cheng’s arms.

After a few minutes, he poked Gong Cheng, “Can you let go of me now? I have a deadline to meet. If you don’t receive my draft in time, don’t blame me.”

He didn’t want to be a wet blanket, but he felt uneasy as Gong Cheng remained silent.

“Let me hug you for a while, just a while.” Gong Cheng buried his face on Xu Jing’s neck and took a deep breath in depression.

Xu Jing said “Come on… Stop… ” with anxiety and helplessness.

He raised his hand, but he paused. He then closed his eyes and patted Gong Cheng’s back gingerly, saying, “Although I don’t know what has happened, I believe you will handle it well. We have been like this for over ten years!”

Gong Cheng smiled at his consolation and felt better. The grave mood was gone.

He gently pushed Xu Jing away and then kissed his forehead with affection, deepening his smile.

Xu Jing’s heart skipped a beat, but he didn’t say anything. Instead, he frowned and glanced at Gong Cheng. He felt uneasy as Gong Cheng did it too naturally.

“What’s wrong? Can’t I kiss you?” Gong Cheng touched Xu Jing’s face and gently rubbed his fingertips against his cheek with undisguised affection on his smiling lips.

“Well, you can, but you’re taking it for granted.” Xu Jing suddenly got shy and looked away, flustered. He didn’t dare to look directly at Gong Cheng. He looked cute.

“Then you should get used to it!” Gong Cheng turned Xu Jing to him and smiled.

Xu Jing paused, as he didn’t know what Gong Cheng meant. Moreover, they didn’t get along like friends anymore. Their relationship had surpassed that line.

“We…” Xu Jing didn’t know how to start, but he was eager to know how Gong Cheng felt for him.

‘Gong Cheng has been with me for more than ten years, and he has never had a girlfriend. Does that mean he likes me?’

Xu Jing’s heart raced when he thought that Gong Cheng might like him. He wanted to ask Gong Cheng, but he hesitated, as he didn’t know how to start.

‘It’s embarrassing if he says he doesn’t like me! Forget it.’

In the end, Xu Jing was afraid that this was a misunderstanding, so he quickly dropped the idea.

Gong Cheng, who had been looking at him, asked, “What’s wrong?”

“No, nothing.” Xu Jing hastily waved his hand.

‘Gong Cheng can’t possibly like me either. I’ve been single for a long time, and he hasn’t given me any hints.’

“I have to go back to work. Chat with you later.” He hurried back to his desk and pretended to be busy.

The moment when Xu Jing turned around, Gong Cheng had a wistful look on his face.

He knew Xu Jing so well that he was clear what was on his mind. He just pretended not to know about it.

‘How long can I stay alone with you?’

His eyes were dim, and he looked sad.
