Belated Romance (Mu Tongrui)

Han Ling was stunned. It had been less than a week and it was only eight in the evening. Surely Fu Lingye is here for the medicine. Her heart trembled.

“Sure, I'll be waiting.”

When the call ended, Han Ling was filled with joy. She rummaged her room and finally found a regular suspender silk dress in the closet.

Even though it was ordinary, wearing it on its own made it extraordinary. As someone who studied psychology, she knew what men like and what aroused them.

She removed her undergarments and slipped on that suspender dress, feeling ecstatic.

...

When Fu Lingye arrived at Han Ling's doorstep, he noticed from the corners of his eyes, the slender figure that followed him.

His eyes darkened and he pressed on Han Ling's doorbell.

Mu Tongrui who hid behind a pillar wanted to catch up with him but realized that a graceful and beautiful woman had welcomed him.

She froze, her feet glued to the ground.

With her wet stained vision, she could clearly see a woman wearing a suspender dress with no bra underneath. To welcome a man in such a state could only mean one thing.

So it was true. I wasn't Fu Lingye's only option.

But didn't I already know that? I can't possibly be the person in Fu Lingye's heart. As for me, I'm only someone who's been scamming his trust. Did it matter who he dates?

But why do I feel so upset?
