Chapter 730: Touching Reunion
Upon hearing that question, Dr. Feng became even more confused. "How do I know that, you ask? I am not stupid. If your relationship is not good, then why would you mistake me as him when we first met?"
Luan recalled his previous blunder and the corner of his lips turned down, extremely upset. However, he could not deny the surging relief in his chest when he heard Dr. Feng’s innocent reply. Oh that’s good, so he still had not found out anything yet...
He knew that it was ridiculous of him to hide this matter from Dr. Feng. The longer this went on, the more guilty he felt. He was so used to being transparent with this person that having to hide such a grave secret was slowly killing him from the inside. But more than that, he feared the day that Dr. Feng would learn the truth. Even more than knowing Luan’s intimate relationship with Cyrus inside the simulator, he was more afraid to see Dr. Feng acknowledging this relationship with utter sincerity...
He couldn’t. Just thinking about it was enough to make his core tremble and shiver in excruciating pain.
As such, no matter how guilty and agonizing it felt, he still chose to drag on day by day, trying to bury the truth as long as possible.
"Oh." Luan blinked and swiftly adjusted his expression. "You’re right. We indeed got along well with each other. But you’re already swarmed with work all day long, I don’t want to take up much of your time."
Dr. Feng was slightly taken aback. He did not expect that Luan would be so sensible. For a split second, he was unable to put into words what he was feeling right now. Was this the complicated feeling of a father upon knowing that their son had grown up and could start to share their burden? With an amused snort, he chided Luan softly, "Why are you so silly? If you want to talk about him, of course I will listen."
"Mn..." Luan lowered his lashes to hide the bitterness in his eyes. "I will keep it in mind. Thank you."
"You’re welcome," he said with a smile, not knowing how his light reply was akin to a harsh jab to Luan’s sore spot.
