Also known as: After Breaking Up, My Rival is Bound to the Virtuous Husband System.
As a game engineer, the female lead, Pei Wu, was questioned by players for never having been in love. So, s...
'If you didn't verbally refuse me... does that mean you agree?'
Seeing Jin Wei remain silent, Pei Wu turned her head slightly to look at him. The light from the big screen shone on Jin Wei's face, causing his glasses to reflect slightly, making it impossible to see his expression.
At this moment, Jin Wei reached out and adjusted the glasses on his nose. The thin-rimmed silver glasses suited his face shape perfectly. Jin Wei's facial features were smooth, with a high nose bridge, and behind those exquisite glasses were his thick, bushy eyelashes.
It's unclear what he's thinking right now. He pursed his lips slightly. In Pei Wu's memory, Jin Wei was stubborn and prone to tantrums, a spoiled child from his family. But now, as Jin Wei silently pondered, his demeanor was aloof and indifferent.
He seemed to sense Pei Wu's gaze on him, but he didn't move. He just blinked his eyelashes more frequently and even slightly raised his chin, which made his neck appear even longer and his Adam's apple more delicate.
"Does this mean you agree?" Pei Wu asked Jin Wei.
"..." Upon hearing Pei Wu's words, Jin Wei subconsciously straightened his back, still not turning to look at Pei Wu, and simply said, "The movie hasn't started yet, President Pei, please be quiet for a while."
Pei Wu smiled and replied, "Okay."
The movie continued, but the two of them didn't speak. Pei Wu would occasionally hand Jin Wei the popcorn she was holding, and Jin Wei would accept it without hesitation, taking a piece and putting it in his mouth every now and then.
In the dim and quiet environment, the atmosphere between the two was quite harmonious.
As the movie ended and the lights came on, the relationship between the two became...something. Pei Wu's grip on the popcorn bag tightened slightly, while Jin Wei remained seated until almost everyone in the hall had left. Only then did Jin Wei get up and walk out of the hall before Pei Wu.
He stopped when he reached the ticket counter and saw the life-size photo of Meng Qinsu. He looked at Meng Qinsu's face... then touched his nose with his hand. He looked up at the giant poster on the wall.
It turns out that Meng Qinsu also starred in one of the many movies released during the summer season.
Meng Qinsu has an outstanding face; otherwise, Jin Wei wouldn't have chosen him to be the spokesperson for 'Anyang'.
However, the conversation between Pei Wu and Wei Guangmo in the car just now still bothered him.
He was only four or five steps away from Pei Wu. He only looked away when Pei Wu walked up to him, but he caught a glimpse of Pei Wu glancing at Meng Qinsu's poster on the wall.
The two walked side by side, their pace not fast. Jin Wei was clearly waiting for Pei Wu's next move. Just as he saw Pei Wu press the '-1' button after entering the elevator to go to the parking lot, he unconsciously snorted and turned his head away from Pei Wu.
'She's just a block of wood... What kind of brilliant things can you expect from a piece of wood like her? I even thought she'd suddenly become clever.'
Jin Wei, who was thinking this, couldn't hide his displeasure, so he quickened his pace a few steps ahead of Pei Wu and remained silent until he got into the car.
Pei Wu glanced at Jin Wei's unpleasant expression and his listless demeanor, pursed her lips slightly, and then asked, "Where...are you living now?"
"Beishu Xing".
Pei Wu nodded after hearing this. "Do you live alone?"
"..." Upon hearing Pei Wu's words, Jin Wei's heart skipped a beat, and he subconsciously sat up straight.
Many other random thoughts flashed through my mind.
I thought you were just being willful, but it turns out you're a playboy who lives life to the fullest.
The words Pei Wu had said to him years ago suddenly resurfaced in his mind, and he felt a tightness in his chest.
