Chapter 409

“Aren’t we humans like this? We are complicated and awkward creatures.” Long Chen said bitterly.

‘If we hadn’t gone nasty because of Long Qi back then, we would’ve been together already.’

‘What about you, Zuo Bo? What kind of feelings do you have for Long Qi? Do you like him the way I like you?’

‘Is this only the one-sided love of Long Qi?’

‘Sometimes, I wish this is only Long Qi’s wishful thinking. But what has happened is irreversible. We can never change them, can we? No, we can’t change them.’

‘I don’t know what is going on between you and Long Qi and what kind of feelings you have for him. I can turn a blind eye and pretend that I don’t know anything about it. So, can’t you stay with me occasionally? Can you stay with me when I miss you? I’m not asking too much from you, right, Zuo Bo?’

Suddenly, Long Chen’s eyes were stinging. This was the first time he had felt like crying.

“If someone doesn’t love you, should you let him go?”

After a while, Long Chen asked with a heavy voice in great agnoy.

However, Yan Chengyu didn’t think so. He took a puff of his cigarette and said, “If that person doesn’t like you, he won’t be around you. Of course, if you don’t like that person, you won’t let him wander around you. The answer is obvious, right? That means both sides have feelings for each other.”

He looked at Long Chen who suddenly trembled and said, “Warden Zuo Bo is deeply in love with you. Although he looks playful and has a bad mouth, a little sloppy and doesn’t know what to say, people of good sense know that he is sincere to you. So don’t think too much. He loves you. You are much better than me. Before I can get anywhere, my beloved one has detested me.”

Yan Chengyu smiled bitterly, as if laughing at his embarrassment. He put out his cigarette and was about to leave.

Long Chen suddenly smiled broadly, as if Yan Chengyu had convinced him.

He said, “You are good at talking sense into people, but why don’t you do that to yourself? Love makes you blind as well.”

After he spoke, he left Yan Chengyu.

Yan Chengyu was confused. “I’m… blind?”

It was smart of him to persuade Long Chen, but it was silly of him not to analyze the situation between him and An Yan.

If An Yan really hated him, he wouldn’t allow Yan Chengyu to get near and take advantage of him.

“He’s right. I’m blinded by love!” Yan Chengyu covered his face with his hands in frustration. He seemed to have figured it out.

After Long Chen left, he went to his office and said by the door, “Good men are hard to find, and it is not easy to get one. I hope you wouldn’t be hurt just like me.”

Long Chen was not talking to himself. He knew that An Yan was watching from middle distance.

He turned off the lights in the office and closed the door, heading to his room.

‘Tomorrow I’ll go see him. I need to take the chance.’

Long Chen smiled. After talking to Yan Chengyu, he relaxed a lot.

After Long Chen left, An Yan lowered his eyes with an impassive face.

He lit a cigarette and leaned against the wall. He was thinking of something.
