Chapter 15: He Cannot Let Her Go

When Qin Ling saw her friends walk over to the lobby, she immediately noticed that there was something wrong with Su Ruan's expression.

Picking up her purse, Qin Ling walked over to Su Ruan with a concerned look on her face. "What's wrong?"

Su Ruan shook her head. "It's nothing."

Qin Ling frowned. She could see that Su Ruan's paled face. How can it simply be nothing? She turned to look in the direction where Su Ruan had just come out and noticed Yu Zhi Yi's fiance walking out. Instantly, Qin Ling guessed what was going on.

She held Qin Ling's hand tightly and spoke, "Come on, let's go back." Turning around, Su Ruan walked over to the entrance.

A man in suit and tie passed by.

Qin Ling glanced at the man once before she looked at her friend again. "Did she make trouble for you?"

Su Ruan shook her head again. "No. Qin Ling, don't think too much."

A light sigh escaped her. Qin Ling could sense that her friend was not in a good mood and decided not to ask. She followed Su Ruan to head out and halted. A light frown appeared on her face.

Qin Ling turned around again to look for that man in suit and tie, but could not find him again.

She had a feeling that she had seen that man before, but could not remember the time and place.

Seeing that Su Ruan had walked farther, Qin Ling decided not to ponder about that man and focused on her friend instead.

…

Long Yu Heng walked around the hotel's lobby with worry. Just a while ago, Long Fei was sitting behind his desk, looking at some documents while he was on a video call meeting. All of a sudden, he stood up and walked out of the room without explaining.

It was Long Yu Heng who had to explain to their business partner that Long Fei had an emergency.

When he followed the man out, Long Fei was nowhere to be seen.

Long Yu Heng decided to come down and look for the man downstairs.

As he recalled the strange way Long Fei has been acting these past few days, Long Yu Heng could not help but worry.

After searching around the place for a few minutes, Long Yu Heng finally saw his cousin standing in the hotel's lobby with a dazed look on his face. He let out a breath of relief and walked over. "What's wrong with you? Why did you suddenly rush out of the room?"

"She was here a while ago."

"Who was here a while ago?" A thought came to his mind and Long Yu Heng followed his Long Fei's line of gaze. However, he was disappointed when he noticed that Long Fei was staring at the closed door of a function room.

These days, the person that could make Long Fei act this way was that girl.

Long Yu Heng narrowed his eyes, wondering if that person would still be here. "Do you want to go inside?"

"No. She already left." Long Fei retracted his gaze. He turned around to leave but hesitated again. Long Fei turned to his cousin and spoke, "Can you help and find out why she would appear at this hotel?"

"Alright." Long Yu Heng nodded and left to investigate.

Long Fei heaved a long sigh as he released his hand that was balled into a tight fist. He did not understand himself.

He was usually a calm person. Why was it that when it comes to that girl, he would act like this – wanting to be close to Su Ruan and finding out more about her. Long Fei thought that his action was almost the same as a stalker.

Didn't he already decide that he did not want to care about her?

He took a deep breath to calm down.

Long Fei realized that each time he was close to Su Ruan, his body would feel different. It was as if he was his source of… energy. Each time that he got closer, he would feel refreshed.

The thing about his body was that he could not leave the water for too long. Or else he would be irritated and his body would weaken. This was why he would often stay around the lake in D Town a lot.

However, with Su Ruan around, everything seemed to be different. That woman was like his source of water.

In the past, when his grandfather had told him that it was important for him to find that girl again, Long Fei had thought that his grandfather was overreacting.

He spent a long time, years, trying to prove to his grandfather that he did not need her. He wanted to prove that he would be fine living without her. This was also the reason he decided to pursue his study in C Country.

His grandfather had called it a gift but Long Fei had always thought that he was cursed with this body.

He had thought that he would be able to break this chain. However, his stubbornness almost cost him his life.

Fortunately, there was a huge lake around that place where he could turn into his other self and swum around under the water. Or else, perhaps he would die and the Long family prestige would end with him.

Now that he had met Su Ruan, Long Fei began to understand why his grandfather had said that Su Ruan is very important.

Even though he hated to admit it, Long Fei knew that he needed Su Ruan to stay by his side.

He cannot let her go.

But, what could he do to make her stay with him?

Kidnap her? Force her to stay around?

Although he was very capable to do so, these were things that he did not want to do. Long Fei wanted her to stay beside him out of her free will.

"Long Fei."

He finally snapped out of his thought when he heard Long Yu Heng's voice.

"The hotel said that someone booked that room to hold a welcome back party," Long Fei spoke. "Miss Su attended this party as Mr. Yu's guests."

"Mr. Yu?"

"His name is Yu Zhi Yi. He only returned to Capital City a few weeks ago."

"Who is he?"

"I believe that Miss Su and Mr.. Yu went to the same university."
