“What relationship?”

Their gazes met. Wang Dong suddenly smiled and said, “Have you heard of great friendships?”

Great friendship was similar to being lovers, but also superior to being lovers.

It was like the relationship between Boya and Ziqi, Zhongni and Zi Lu. In other words, it was the relationship between soulmates.

This word came from a contemporary novelist, Wang Xiaobo’s work, Golden Age.

In that special period in history, the male and female protagonists used great friendship to symbolize love from the bottom of their hearts, but it was also a relationship with ambiguous feelings that was superior to being lovers.

Qin Sixia’s pupils constricted. How could she, who was focused on studying literature, not know what he meant?

She didn’t mind becoming friends.

But she didn’t want to fall in love.

She quickly avoided his gaze and said, “Sorry, I already have a boyfriend. He’s an editor of the magazine…”

“I know.”

These two words stunned Qin Sixia on the spot.

She subconsciously looked up at Wang Dong. “You know…”

“He’s not good enough for you. He’s a scumbag, you know that?” He asked.

Obviously, she didn’t know anything. What did Wang Dong mean?

Scumbag?

Qin Sixia wondered if Wong Dong was talking about Han Xuan.

How was this possible?

The other party was gentle and considerate. When she was cold, he would resist the cold wind and give her his coat. He didn’t even mind if he ended up getting a fever the next day. Every time she needed him, he would immediately abandon his work to accompany her…

How could such a person be a scumbag?

But these words came from the person she approved of. For a moment, she didn’t know who to believe.

“Han Xuan, editor of the Germinal magazine, right?”

If Wang Dong didn’t accurately say his name, perhaps she would still have doubts.

But now, the truth was right in front of her. The scumbag the other party was talking about was really her boyfriend!

Seeing that she was starting to waver, Wang Dong continued to sway her and said, “Do you know that you’re not Han Xuan’s only girlfriend?”

He handed her the screenshot he had brought out.

When Qin Sixia saw the messages on it, her face instantly turned pale!

Her boyfriend was actually such a person?

“If you want to know more about the truth, come with me.”

She followed him doubtfully.

Seeing that they were getting further and further away, she asked worriedly, “Where are we going?”

Wang Dong was mysterious and silent.

He led the way in front. The place he was heading to was the residential building he had prepared for a long time.

That residence was prepared for this moment.

Instead of saying it was a room, it was more like the battlefield Wang Dong had prepared for his final battle with Qin Sixia.

…

“We’re here.”

Wang Dong turned the key and opened the door.

As soon as Qin Sixia entered, she saw the clean and tidy hall. A warm yellow light was even installed in the corner. A table made of black sandalwood stood there quietly. Thick books were piled on both sides, and in the middle was a half-watched collection of poems.

There was also a yellow rosewood chair in front of the table.

Initially, there were only four walls here. Everything was either rented or bought by Wang Dong.

Qin Sixia walked to the solid wood bookshelf beside the table. With a glance, she saw that all the books he had were the same books she liked.

This made her even more certain that Wang Dong was her soulmate.

She tried to control her crazily beating heart, but her attempt was fruitless. She looked at the table.
