The man on the sofa was lying quietly, and the expression on his face could not be seen clearly in the dim light.
I don't know how long it took, but it was so long that Jiang Miao thought he had fallen asleep before he spoke:
"So...do you have someone you like now?" In the dark space, the man's low and hoarse voice contained no emotion.
Jiang Miao, who had turned around, blinked and looked at the ceiling, swallowed: "I... didn't."
"Okay, go to sleep."
Jiang Miao turned his head and looked at the sofa: "But you haven't answered me yet..."
"Either don't talk and sleep well, or I will come up and sleep with you." Seeing his serious and cold tone, Jiang Miao turned around and closed her eyes obediently.
In the days that followed, although the two were under the same roof, Jiang Miao rarely saw him again.
The autumn wind is blowing, and leaves are falling to the ground in the streets of Jiangcheng.
In the cafe, Jiang Miao and Shi Ran sat across from each other.
"Honestly! Have you asked Fu Yanci about that person's current situation?" Shi Ran looked at Jiang Miao with a sullen face and asked.
Jiang Miao frowned, then lowered his eyes and took a slow sip of the coffee in the cup and asked her, "You asked me out as soon as you came back just to ask me this?"
"Miaomiao, didn't you agree to let him go?" Shi Ran looked at Jiang Miao seriously, paused and continued, "You don't still want to hold on, do you?"
Jiang Miao put down the coffee cup in his hand, raised his eyes, and said to her with a normal expression:
"Ranran, I'm married."
Sitting opposite, Shi Ran looked at her with dull eyes: "Wha, what? Are you talking about that one time..."
"I'm married to Fu Yanci."
"What!"
The informative answer made Shi Ran stand up suddenly and his voice raised an octave.
In an instant, the eyes of the people around him were all looking this way.
Jiang Miao quickly pulled Shi Ran's clothes and lowered her head in embarrassment. She gritted her teeth and said, "Why are you so loud? Sit down!"
Realizing that she had lost her composure, Shi Ran also pursed her lips and sat down.
"What's going on? Are you encountering any difficulties?" Her tone was filled with confusion and anxiety.
"Sure enough, Shi Ran knows me well." Jiang Miao looked at Shi Ran with a loose tone.
In the next twenty minutes, Jiang Miao told Shi Ran everything that had happened to him recently.
"So this is the kind of contract marriage you see in idol dramas and novels, where you get married first and fall in love later?" Shi Ran stared at Jiang Miao quietly, blinking her eyes with a bit of expectation.
Jiang Miao sneered and twitched the corner of his mouth and responded to her helplessly: "You are overthinking, we are just getting what we need."
Having said this, Shi Ran stood up and sat next to Jiang Miao, looking at her with bright eyes: "Well, since you have chosen to let go of that person, you can try to get in touch with him. Maybe he can really be like me. It's like marriage first, love later..." Shi Ran became more and more excited as she spoke, and her thoughts started to run wild.
Jiang Miao picked up the fork on the table, took a small piece of cake and stuffed it into Shi Ran's mouth: "Just save your imagination, he likes men."
"Cough cough cough..." Shi Ran coughed slightly with his eyes widened, disbelief written all over his face.
Seeing her look of disbelief, Jiang Miao gave her the coffee on the table and nodded firmly.
Shi Ran took a big sip of coffee, frowned and thought for a long time.
"No wonder, I haven't seen him have anything to do with any woman in all these years. Even the news reports are about him and..."
While talking, Ran took out her phone and flipped through it.
After a while, Shi Ran handed the phone to Jiang Miao.
"Well, at first I thought it was a business infighting. Someone wanted to use this to smear the Fu family. But if you say that, then the credibility of this report is very high."
Jiang Miao curiously took the phone and saw that in addition to a large paragraph of text that confirmed that the head of the Fu Group liked men, there were two less clear pictures in the report.
Jiang Miao squinted and clicked on the picture, only to see a man in a white shirt being wrapped around the waist by another man sitting on the sofa.
Although the photo was blurry, Jiang Miao still recognized Fu Yanci at a glance.
