The first ray of morning sunlight shone through the window, and the strength on my arm tightened, pulling me into his embrace. As usual, he pressed a kiss on my forehead.

It's these damn details that gave me the illusion of being loved by Gu Jin'an.

But now I'm wondering, does he really love me? It's just that the power of moonlight is too strong.

"Xiaoxiao, you don't have to wait for me for dinner tonight. There's a meeting at the company."

He came out of the bathroom, bare-chested, and swiftly buttoned up his shirt with his slender fingers. His strong abdominal muscles gradually disappeared under the shirt.

"But we agreed to go to the hospital today." I pouted, feeling a bit annoyed.

He smiled, pulling his lips, and stopped his movements, walking to the side of the bed. His fingers inserted into my hair, speaking in a doting tone, "Darling, let's change the time."

Before I could answer, he turned and left.

Five minutes after he left, I got up quickly.

Originally, we were supposed to go to the hospital today for a health check-up. A week ago, I told him I wanted a child.

After the examination at the hospital, I stood in the corridor, checking my phone for the results.

Shen Nianxiao, who had been silent on my social media for a long time, posted a dynamic update with a picture of two hands clasped together.

"After all these years, I'm glad I have you."

I clicked on the photo and enlarged it.

The scar on the ring finger mocked me wantonly, reminding me of my foolishness.

I turned my head and saw the familiar figure of Gu Jin'an, dressed in a suit and standing out in the crowd, still firmly holding her hand.

I knew the result, but my heart felt stuck, almost unable to breathe.

Gu Jin'an met my gaze when he raised his head while talking to her.

A momentary panic flashed in his eyes, and in that instant, he let go of her hand.

Shen Nianxiao noticed his strangeness and followed his gaze, her eyes evading.

Gu Jin'an walked briskly to me, reaching out to rub my hair. "Why did you come by yourself?"

His expression remained calm, without a trace of panic.

I tugged at the corner of my mouth and said, "You didn't have time, so I came by myself."

Shen Nianxiao hurriedly approached us and said, "Chuxiao, long time no see. Don't misunderstand, I just felt a little uncomfortable in my stomach, and Jin'an said he would bring me to the hospital."

I politely nodded at her and said, "Why would I misunderstand? Gu Jin'an would never deceive me," I looked at Gu Jin'an and asked, "Right, husband?"

A barely perceptible smile appeared on his face, and he immediately put his arm around my shoulder. "Of course."

After getting the report, Gu Jin'an found someone to accompany Shen Nianxiao, while he accompanied me to have lunch.

Outwardly, I pretended to know nothing, but in fact, I knew Shen Nianxiao would come to the hospital today. With her character, she would definitely make Gu Jin'an accompany her.

Gu Jin'an works in the medical equipment industry, and over the years, his company has become the largest medical equipment supplier in City A.

As his wife, it's as easy as pie for me to find out some things.

After finishing our meal, as we walked out of the restaurant, he pulled me into his embrace, and the cool fragrance of his chest filled my nostrils.

"Xiaoxiao, don't misunderstand. I have nothing with her." His warm fingertips rubbed my scalp.

See, Gu Jin'an is best at creating the illusion of love.

I lightly stroked his ear, "Of course, I believe you."

The autumn wind was bleak as we bid farewell. Two lonely leaves fell from the nearby French plane tree.

I wrapped my coat tightly and hailed a taxi by the roadside.

I've liked Gu Jin'an since I was fifteen, and it has been fourteen years now.
