Pei Wu remained silent for a moment after hearing Jin Wei's words.
Seeing Pei Wu remain silent, Jin Wei, though outwardly unchanged, felt his heart pounding even harder. To conceal his feelings, he picked up the coffee on the table and took a sip, leaving a glistening sheen on his moist lips.
Pei Wu smiled and replied with a light smile after noticing the other person's little gesture, "Okay, whatever makes you happy."
In Jin Wei's memory, Pei Wu didn't smile often. She always had a kind of... serious demeanor, and it was quite strange for her to say things like "whatever makes you happy." In Jin Wei's memory, Pei Wu not only didn't smile often, but she also didn't talk much and often used complicated professional terms.
However, Pei Wu's gentle smile as she said "Whatever makes you happy" still made Jin Wei's chest pound. He reached up to cover his slightly long bangs and tucked them behind his ear, revealing his exquisite earring. His ear was very delicate, with small earlobes on his sculpted ears. The beautiful purple diamonds on his small earlobes sparkled brilliantly under the overhead lights, and even the coffee stains on his lips seemed to shine.
Pei Wu almost instinctively grabbed a tissue from the table, intending to wipe the coffee stains from the corner of his mouth. But Pei Wu's hand, which was suddenly close and carried her unique fragrance, made Jin Wei instinctively pull back.
"Sorry, I just wanted to wipe the coffee off your mouth."
As she was speaking, Pei Wu withdrew her movements. She and Shen Yu Nan had spent a long time together in the game, and some of their intimate actions were almost subconscious.
"...."
Upon hearing Pei Wu's words, Jin Wei subconsciously pursed his lips and said, "Excuse me."
"good."
Pei Wu watched Jin Wei head towards the restroom before glancing down at the tissue she was still holding in her hand.
She felt she had to restrain herself from some of her subconscious actions, since she and he were no longer legally protected partners.
Jin Wei entered the restroom, but instead of rushing to look in the mirror, he turned on the tap and rinsed his hands. He looked down at the gushing water, and the glasses on his nose reflected slightly under the overhead light.
After a while, he looked up at himself in the mirror.
The dim lighting in the restroom made the small amount of coffee on his lips barely noticeable; however, the dried coffee clung to his skin, making it slightly darker than his surroundings. He took a plain-colored handkerchief from his suit pocket, wiped his hands, and then used it to clean the coffee stain from his lips.
After wiping away the coffee stains, he stood in front of the mirror and examined himself for a long time before reaching out to tidy his hair and tie.
I gradually calmed my rapidly beating heart.
She said she wanted to pursue me.
While adjusting his tie, he unconsciously murmured to himself, and stared at his reflection in the mirror for a long time.
As a mixed-race individual, Jin Wei's appearance has always been praised since childhood. However... in front of Pei Wu, he suddenly realized that his appearance was not as good as others described. Pei Wu did not appear as stunning as others had.
The bathroom door was pushed open again, and he seemed to snap out of his daze as he turned to leave.
When Jin Wei returned to his seat, all the dishes had already been served.
Pei Wu had already thoughtfully set out the tableware for the other person.
