Midnight was approaching fast but the city was still as busy as always and its citizens never slept. After dinner with Tang Moyu and her little buns, the empress had a nice talk with Feng Tianyi at the porch while the little buns were taking a shower before their bedtime.
The devil didn't seem like he was against Tang Beixuan and Li Meili being together. If anything else, he reminded the younger Tang that growing up wasn't enough. He would need to man up and protect those people who are important to him.
"I told you, you were just overthinking. My sister isn't against us being together. Do you finally get it, Meili?" Tang Beixuan asked while he pulled his car into a stop at the parking space below Li Meili's apartment building.
"I understand now." Li Meili replied in a calm manner, surprising Tang Beixuan. "Moyu has already explained what I should expect if I let this affair continue."
Tang Beixuan's hands tightened on his steering wheel. So his sister had already disclosed her concern to Li Meili. Then that would save him time and he doesn't need to explain further to her.
"I'm not going to stop, Meili. I know the consequences of my actions, so I hope you'll also stop using my sister against me. It's unfair, Meili."
Li Meili shut her eyes and tried to clear her mind. For the past few days, the stress of trying to finish Gu Yuyao's dress and keeping her feelings for Tang Beixuan at bay had made her restless and exhausted.
After she talked to Tang Moyu, she realized that she'd been the only one who was being hard on herself, that she shouldn't be sorry for loving a person. She opened her eyes and took Tang Beixuan's hand in hers, her eyes looking straight into his eyes, allowing him to see what she truly felt for him.
"Beixuan, you have to listen to what I'm about to say. Don't interrupt me." She added when she saw that he was about to argue with her again. "You are still young."
At that, Tang Beixuan scowled. That age difference again! Was there something else that he could do so she would stop using this fact to reject him?
"You'll always be five years younger than me, but looking at you now, indeed you've become a man. So be a man, okay? You have to consider what Moyu told you. Until we're sure that your mother won't harm us, we can't let our guard down."
Tang Beixuan looked away, his eyes stung with tears again. Was she denying him again? He wouldn't be able to endure the pain of being rejected by her again this time. How many times did Li Meili need to break his heart? Until he realized that she truly didn't want him… didn't love him?
First, she used his sister as a reason, now she was using her mother?
"Stop." He hissed. "If you're going to use my mother, stop. Just tell me you don't love me, Meili. Stop using other people to push me away. I will leave you alone. Just tell me to do it."
"That's the problem. I don't plan to push you away anymore." Li Meili laughed and kissed the palm of his hand, much to his shock. "I don't want to turn my back on you anymore. Not this time."
Tang Beixuan's thoughts were going hundreds of miles per hour, trying to figure out if he was hearing things or did Li Meili actually accept his love this time?
"Stay with me, Beixuan. You don't have to leave anymore." Li Meili smiled at him.
"Meili…" He unbuckled his seatbelt and drew her into an embrace. "Are you sure? You aren't going to take back your word, right?"
"No." Li Meili held onto him. There's no need to fight these feelings anymore. Her happiness was in her own hands, not in some stranger's. So damn it all!
After years of waiting, struggling to prove himself that he was worth the wait, Tang Beixuan finally heard the words that he'd been dying to hear. Just as he thought that he'd already reach the end and was about to give up, Li Meili took pity and professed her love for him.
"I give you my word. My mother wouldn't be able to hurt you. No one can break us apart."
It didn't matter who would dare to, even if it was his own mother. The faster he could cut his ties with his mother, the better. It was only natural for his sister to get worried over Li Meili's safety. If something happened to her, not only Tang Moyu wouldn't be able to forgive him, he wouldn't forgive himself either.
If what his sister said was true, then they would need to unravel the truth about Yan Qiuyu and Tang Lingjun's deaths soon. Considering that they were a threat to the Zhang family, it would only make sense why someone would kill the two.
And him, being a vital chess piece to secure their influence within the family, Tang Beixuan understood that he needed to make a decision for himself and his future. He cannot let Zhang Wuying dictate his life anymore, now that he has someone to protect.
He didn't own any shares at Tang Enterprise at the moment, but his mother did. He wouldn't be surprised if she attempted to oust his sister from her position anytime soon. Tang Beixuan decided that he would discuss his next steps with his sister later. Who knows what their mother and the Tangs as well as the Zhangs are planning at the moment.
"There's no need to rush things, Beixuan. Like Moyu said, we have to be careful. So you can't just barge into my place whenever you want to. Let's not give Moyu any more problems, alright? Until we are sure that it would be safe, you better watch after yourself. It won't hurt to be extra careful. Until then we should just meet like this."
