Chapter 605 "Do you really not understand or are you pretending not to understand?"

Xu Hui: "There's no need to go through with the whole act. Wei Wei came to see me this afternoon and apologized. It was you who gave in, right? From what I can see, she seems to have given up."

He said nothing, his eyes fixed on the steering wheel.

Xu Hui added: "I mean, just stop at the right point."

He glanced sideways at her, "Want to strike again?"

Xu Hui: "That's not what I meant..."

"What do you want to eat?"

He interrupted her directly.

"Um?"

Xu Hui turned his head and looked at him. Is he still acting?

He put his hands on the steering wheel and didn't look at her. "Isn't this a work injury? I'm here to comfort you."

Xu Hui: "Oh, that's really not necessary. That would be too formal."

"Besides barbecue, what else do you like to eat? Hot pot, Japanese food, Western food?"

Xu Hui had already figured out this man's temper. He was a man of his word. It was useless for her to shirk his responsibility. She simply said, "Let's go for Hunan cuisine. I know a place near my home. I'll take you there."

"Yeah," he nodded slightly.

Xu Hui was silent for a moment, then asked, "I want to know how you managed to get Wei Wei to bow her head and apologize to me? I think it's simply unbelievable that a woman as arrogant as her could apologize to me."

He glanced at her, turned back and said calmly, "If you do something wrong, you should either apologize or pay for your mistakes. It's only natural."

Xu Hui: "Actually, she's not wrong at all. She just likes you."

"You're my girlfriend. If she dares to do something behind my back today, she'll dare to bully you in the future. If you don't use this opportunity to straighten out our relationship, how are you going to live your life in the future?"

He turned his head to stare at her.

Xu Hui's cheeks became hot again. He kept calling her his girlfriend. He must be too immersed in the role.

In fact, her mind was already in a mess. She felt like she was being led by him. There was a thick fog in front of her eyes. She opened her eyes wide and seemed to see something, but she found it ridiculous.

It was peak time after get off work, the traffic was heavy and the car was very quiet. Xu Hui hesitated for only a few seconds before asking directly, "Can you tell me the truth? Why did you invite me here?"

There was a red light ahead. He put his arm on the car window and looked at her sideways, his eyes complicated but his tone casual: "Hasn't this issue been discussed before?"

Xu Hui felt suffocated. She turned her head and said directly, "You said it was to deal with your family's pressure to get married, but it's obvious that my presence not only failed to appease your parents, but instead intensified the conflict. You said it was to make Wei Wei back off, but I think even without me, you have plenty of ways to make her give up."

After saying that, Xu Hui leaned forward to look at him, but he turned his head to the window. She was not sure what expression was on his face.

She urged him, "Speak."

"Do you really not understand or are you pretending not to understand?"

He suddenly turned his head to look at her, with a hint of inquiry in his complicated eyes. At this moment, Xu Hui's heart suddenly started beating like a drum, bang, bang, bang.

She blinked and said, "Why don't you just tell me directly and I'll check the answer."

His voice dropped, "What do you think?"

Xu Hui was silent for two seconds, then spoke up, "Did Jiang Yuan ask you to do this? Yin Dong gave me money, but I refused it. She went to great lengths to repay me in this way. Did she deliberately ask you to keep it a secret?"

Ji Chuan felt like he was suddenly tripped on the road, and his heart almost fell to the ground.

He slowly withdrew his gaze from her face, his face turned cold, and he said, "I simply think you are too stupid. If you continue to hang around out there, sooner or later you will be cheated by someone."

Xu Hui frowned, "You scolded me."

He put his hands on the steering wheel and replied lazily, "I didn't curse at anyone."

Xu Hui slowly turned his head to look out the window, a hint of subtle strangeness flashing across his eyes.
