"Is it really like this? It's completely different from what my brother told me."

Ling Zhenfei said: "I have no reason to lie to you. Your brother did all this for your good, so I agreed."

"I'm sorry for wrongly blaming you." Bai Ling gently sat beside Ling Zhenfei, touched his face with her hand, and said: "Did it hurt when I hit you earlier?"

Ling Zhenfei said: "No worries, I have thick skin, it's not a big deal."

Bai Ling said: "I don't blame myself for hitting you. Do you know how I've been these days? There were several times I wanted to jump into the sea and end it all, but thankfully I held back. I just wanted to find you and hit you to vent."

"Do you really hate me that much? What exactly did your brother say?" Ling Zhenfei was very puzzled.

Forget it, let's not talk about it. If I tell you, you'll get angry. It's better if only I know about it. But there's something I must seriously ask you now."

"What question?"

Bai Ling said: "Do your previous words still hold true?"

Ling Zhenfei asked: "Which words did I say?"

Bai Ling said: "You once told me that if one day you got married, you would choose me first."

Ling Zhenfei was taken aback. He seemed to have said that, but it was a statement without any real guarantee.

He didn't expect Bai Ling to remember it so clearly and treat it as a promise.

Seeing Ling Zhenfei's hesitation, Bai Ling's expression changed slightly: "Does it mean even that statement doesn't count anymore?"

Ling Zhenfei shook his head and said: "I just suddenly thought of something."

"Don't try to evade the topic. Just tell me, does it count or not?"

Ling Zhenfei said: "It counts, of course it counts. But have you ever thought about the fact that I might not get married?"

Bai Ling was stunned and said: "Impossible. I know you're restless now; it's normal for men to like to have fun. I can wait, it doesn't matter. But as we gradually age, men will always settle down and want a home."

Ling Zhenfei said: "But if I never get married, wouldn't that mean I'm deceiving you? Your brother is indeed looking out for you. I agree with his approach."

"What do you mean? Do you really not plan to get married?" Bai Ling was incredulous, her face full of shock.

"It's not impossible. We've known each other for a long time, and there are some things I don't want to hide. I'm bewildered now, not by life or career, but by relationships between men and women."

"Tell me why you're bewildered, I'll help you analyze." Bai Ling said.

Ling Zhenfei said: "I really don't know what's wrong with me. I never learned how to refuse. When girls pursue me, I lose all resistance. I end up liking every girl I meet, and in the end, I don't know who to love nor can I quit anyone."

Bai Ling said: "What's so bewildering? You're just a philanderer, you know?"

"Alright, I admit I'm a philanderer, I've always admitted it. But if possible, I would be responsible for all of them. That's why I'm afraid to get married.

I don't want to fail anyone, but in the end, I find I'm failing everyone. So I don't dare to get married now. If I marry you, I feel sorry for them; if I marry her, I feel sorry for you. What should I do?"

Bai Ling looked at Ling Zhenfei in surprise: "How many romantic debts have you accumulated? Tell me, I'll help you analyze."

Ling Zhenfei was stunned, unsure whether he should tell Bai Ling everything. But would that be good?

No woman wants to know how many women her beloved has outside, and Bai Ling would certainly not want to know either.

After careful consideration, Ling Zhenfei said: "Forget it, what's the point in saying all this. Anyway, things are what they are."

Bai Ling's face was very gloomy as she looked at Ling Zhenfei: "Then what do you think I should do now? What can I do?"

Ling Zhenfei said: "Just like your brother said, leave me, or we could just be ordinary friends. You might not believe it, but I've told many people to leave me."

Bai Ling sneered and said: "I know how charming you are. I was attracted to you like that. But I find it truly difficult to accept that you have so many women.

Let's put it this way: if there were two or three girls around you, perhaps I might reluctantly accept it, but now I'm sure it's not as simple as two or three."

For some reason, Ling Zhenfei suddenly felt annoyed and troubled. He nodded at Bai Ling: "Exactly, so I won't say anything more. I advise you to leave me; your brother is looking out for you."

After speaking, Ling Zhenfei stood up and walked towards the door.

"What do you mean, Ling Zhenfei? I haven't left, so why are you leaving?"

Bai Ling shouted at Ling Zhenfei from behind.

Ling Zhenfei didn't turn back, waved his hand in the air twice, and said: "Listen to your brother and leave. Farewell."

It must be said that Ling Zhenfei felt very uncomfortable inside. No matter how many girls were around him, his feelings for each were different.

Ling Zhenfei was somewhat of a philanderer, but he was sincere with each girl. Moreover, in most cases, Ling Zhenfei found himself in a passive position.

Ling Zhenfei really told many girls to leave him, like He Lingxiu, who once threatened to jump off a cliff, and indeed jumped off the mountain.

If Ling Zhenfei didn't agree, He Lingxiu would commit suicide. It genuinely left Ling Zhenfei feeling helpless, and he could only agree, knowing that he always considered He Lingxiu as his sister.

Ling Zhenfei left the premises and walked onto the street. For some reason, he felt even more troubled inside. He hailed a cab and went straight to his home.

The house was quite nice. After leaving, Lele had been living in the villa, keeping it very clean and organized.

Ling Zhenfei lay on the sofa, watching TV. There were several beers in the fridge, though he didn't know who put them there.

Ling Zhenfei felt free to drink at home without any reservations.

The TV was showing an entertainment program, interviewing some people. Ling Zhenfei recognized Xu Yuan, realizing that Xu Yuan's directed film was completed and ready for release.

Ling Zhenfei unexpectedly saw Guoguo in the footage. Guoguo now truly looked different from before, very poised, confident, with a bit of a celebrity vibe.

Ling Zhenfei was full of emotions, reflecting on how from an ungraduated Film Academy student, from a con artist using a honey trap, to a superstar chased by many, it's unbelievably rapid.

Time is just like this; it can wash away pain and help one grow. Ling Zhenfei went from a loser fired from his job at a company to becoming a Divine Doctor, a renowned entrepreneur, followed by millions.

Thinking about all this, it's been incredibly fast, yet time truly is unpredictable. In these times, many have become strangers, and many have vanished into the river of time.
