Chapter 97: Guilt


    Trantor: _Min_


    Song Ling rubbed his fingers against his phone and seized a moment to speak, “I’m just…”


    Zhou Ci interrupted him directly and said earnestly, “No matter the reason, you’re going to marry Jiang Yue now. All your energy should be focused on Miss Jiang, otherwise, you’re hurting both women.”


    Song Ling pursed his lips, gazing into the darkness of the night, his voice indifferent, “The libertine has begun to educate me now.”


    Zhou Ci lightly chuckled, “Though I may be a libertine, 1 still have basic morals. For example, when dating a woman, 1 won’t go and provoke another. Alright, brother, I won’t talk further about such a simple issue. You should be able to figure it out soon.”


    It was unclear how much time passed before Song Ling slowly came back to his senses. What Zhou Ci said was indeed right; he had been neglecting Yueyue too muchtely, paying too much attention to Gu Dai.


    Regardless, Yueyue had saved his life, and he shouldn’t be acting like this.


    Song Ling took out his phone and called Jiang Yue.


    After quite some time, Jiang Yue finally answered, “Song Ling, why are you calling me sote? I was already asleep.”


    Song Ling, realizing howte it had gotten after he heard Jiang Yue’s words.


    He apologized, “Sorry, Yueyue, I just finished up. I remembered there will be a new lineunching soon, so I wanted to ask if you like any of it.”


    Though Jiang Yue wanted to say she wanted everything after hearing Song Ling’s words, she thought of her gentle and sweet image in front of Song Ling and reined in her excitement, saying, “Whatever you give me, 1 will like.”


    Hearing Jiang Yue’s thoughtful reply and thinking of how he’d neglected her recently, Song Ling’s guilt grew. He immediately said, “I’ll arrange for someone to buy all of them for you. They should arrive in a few days.”


    Suppressing an excited scream, Jiang Yue changed the topic to their uing wedding, “Song Ling, what do you think about the venue for our wedding, and what style should we choose…”


    As Jiang Yue spoke, Song Ling’s thoughts began to drift.


    After a long pause without a response, Jiang Yue asked, somewhat puzzled, “Brother Song Ling, are you still there?”


    Song Ling came back to reality, responding softly, “I’m here; 1 was just imagining the scenes you described.”


    Jiang Yue asked, “What do you think, Song Ling?”


    Song Ling hesitated.


    Then he responded, “I think your ideas are all good. We can arrange the wedding ording to your n. By the way, 1 have a meeting soon, so 1 have to hang up.”


    Jiang Yue’s voice, tinged withughter as she replied, “Alright, Song Ling. Sleep early after you finish your work.”


    Song Ling said, “Okay.”


    Staring at the disconnected call, Song Ling let out a sigh of relief.


    He wanted to control himself, but for some reason, whenever he heard Jiang Yue describing their wedding, he couldn’t help but think of the scenes from his wedding with Gu Dai.


    Perhaps it was because he had only that one experience with marriage, so he couldn’t help but recall it when nning his second one.


    Contrasting the silence on Song Ling’s side, Jiang Yue’s surroundings became lively again after hanging up.


    The colorful lights and exhrating music of the nightclub resumed at Jiang Yue’s gesture.


    Her friends, unable to contain their teasing, asked, “What’s going on, Yueyue? Was that a call from your rich soon-to-be-husband?”


    Jiang Yue lifted her head and revealed a triumphant smile, boasting, “Yes, and he just said he’s buying me clothes from thetest line. I’ll wear them to show you in a couple of days.”


    “Wow, Yueyue, your husband treats you so well.”


    “Yes, yes, we’re all so envious.”


    “By the way, can you invite us to your wedding? We want to see the grand ceremony too!”


    Jiang Yue’s smile faded slightly at this remark, she was concerned about revealing her not-so-innocent image in front of Song Ling, since these people were not very good at deceiving.


    But she quickly recovered,ughing, “I’ve already decided on the wedding decorations. As for the guests, that’s my husband’s decision. In our home, we each have our responsibilities, and we can’t interfere with each other’s. Aspensation, all the drinks tonight are on me!”


    Everyoneughed, stood and raised their sses, “Yueyue’s so generous! Let’s toast to Yueyue!”
