He had never once thought that Lin Jingsheng, the Little Prince of the royalty, would love him.
If there were no love, how could there be cracks.
He was lying!
Why is he unwilling to admit even that youthful, once‑upon‑a‑time infatuation.
Is he so much of a bastard, so heartless, that he finds even his boyhood crush unbearably humiliating?
To what extent had he, without even realizing it, crushed that heart?
If they take this step today, where will they go from here?
They'll never be able to go back, will they?
They won't be able to be lovers, and they won't be able to go back to being friends; he might even find it hard to ever see Lin Jingsheng again.
For a moment's pleasure, is it worth it?
The answer was obvious in his heart, he just didn't want to admit it.
Lin Jingsheng stood up and straightened his lapels. "If you stay silent, I'll take it as your consent. Then stop making things hard for the Gu Family."
