Fallen by the Pillow: The Five Years of Being Occupied

Just as he was talking, the music started and the lights dimmed a little, Lin Jiyue breathed a sigh of relief.

The host and wife of the banquet performed the first dance, and then everyone else stepped onto the dance floor.Zhuang Tianyao pulled Lin Jiyue up and stepped onto the dance floor, but how could she concentrate on dancing with him?

Zhuang Tianyao lowered his head and asked her: "Yueyue, what's the matter? Why do I think you're restless?"

Lin Jiyue quickly restrained her mind: "No, I haven't danced for a long time, and my steps are rusty. Does it hurt you?"

Zhuang Tianyao smiled softly: "It doesn't matter if you step on me, if other people invite you later, don't step on them."

Lin Jiyue smiled embarrassedly, and snuggled into Zhuang Tianyao's arms.

"Are you afraid that I will be rude to others?" Lin Jiyue tried her best to maintain her usual playfulness, lest Zhuang Tianyao would notice something unusual.

Zhuang Tianyao said suddenly: "I didn't expect my eldest brother to come to this banquet suddenly."

Lin Jiyue pretended to be calm: "Really?"

Zhuang Tianyao stared at her with burning eyes: "Yueyue, you must not fall in love with him anymore, my elder brother is already quiet!"

Lin Jiyue pursed her lips and patted him: "What nonsense are you talking about?"

Zhuang Tianyao shouted wronged: "Yueyue, I was just joking, I think you are not in a good mood, I want to make you happy!"

"Hate!"

"However, sooner or later you and elder brother will meet again, so it's better to sort out the relationship in advance!"

Lin Jiyue gave him a sideways look, and asked half-truthfully, "Are you so unconfident? Are you worried that I will still like him?"

Zhuang Tianyao immediately said: "It's not that I don't have confidence, but I don't trust him."

"What do you mean?"

"His marriage with Jing has always been problematic."

Lin Jiyue did not continue to dwell on this issue.

When Zhuang Tianyao was spinning around her, she looked in Zhuang Licheng's direction, and he was also watching her. She was startled and immediately looked away.

Four years of living independently abroad has made Lin Jiyue very calm, but at this moment she feels her heart is overwhelmed, and all the memories flashed before her eyes.

After the song ended, Zhuang Tianyao took her back to the seat, Lin Jiyue bowed her head to listen to Zhuang Tianyao's words, and answered him twice from time to time, afraid that Zhuang Tianyao would notice something.

"Can I ask Xiaoyue to dance?" Zhuang Licheng stood in front of Zhuang Tianyao and Lin Jiyue.

Lin Jiyue knew that meeting Zhuang Licheng today would not be just a greeting.Even if Zhuang Tianyao was reluctant, he was always too embarrassed to refuse directly at the banquet, and it happened that a lady came to invite him to dance with him.

Lin Jiyue kept her head down, not daring to look at Zhuang Licheng.

"Yueyue, how are you?" After a long time, Zhuang Licheng finally spoke.

Lin Jiyue raised her head, and Zhuang Licheng's eyes were full of inquiries, both concern and pain.He was thin and emaciated, and even his eyes lost their luster.She felt uncomfortable for a while, her eyes became hot, and she took a deep breath before forcing back the tears.

There was no trace of resentment towards him in her heart, it was a very complicated feeling, even she couldn't tell what it was.

"I'm fine, how about you?" Lin Jiyue said mechanically.

Zhuang Licheng looked at her sadly, the same way he looked at her back then.Lin Jiyue lowered her head, not to meet his eyes like this: "I'm not good! Ever since you left, I've been a walking dead!"

Lin Jiyue felt great grief in her heart, she couldn't hold back her tears anymore.She closed her eyes to prevent them from leaking out, and it took a long time before she dared to open them again.

If it weren't for the dim light now, she really couldn't guarantee that Zhuang Tianyao wouldn't find out.
