Jin Wei looked at the WeChat message Pei Wu sent and a faint smile appeared on his lips.
'Trying to be together might not be a bad thing, but...agreeing so easily...doesn't it make me seem cheap?'
Jin Wei paused slightly upon realizing this.
Jin Wei's ability to elevate An Yang to the top tier in such a short time is undeniable. Moreover, he is no longer a naive young man in his early twenties. His age and experience no longer allow him to act impulsively. On the contrary, weighing the pros and cons and cutting losses in time is the norm for handling matters.
Now...recalling his conversation with Pei Wu in the car, he couldn't help but feel a flush rise to his cheeks. He attributed it to Pei Wu's actions that afternoon...but he also felt he had been impulsive, revealing his hand to his opponent too early—a major taboo in the business world...
Jin Wei pursed his lips slightly and looked down at the hand he was holding with Pei Wu's... The words she had said to him echoed in his ears.
Coming to his senses, Jin Wei glanced at the thermos and lunchbox on the table and raised his eyebrows slightly.
"However, even a dull and monotonous life needs... a woman's restless hormones to spice things up."
In fact, Jin Mu's assessment of his younger brother was quite accurate. He was a typical example of someone who was stubborn but soft-hearted. His feelings for Pei Wu were obvious to everyone around him, yet he himself was still being stubborn.
Just like that debate competition back then, even though it was a topic he was not good at and had never been interested in, he took the initiative to learn about it after he learned that Pei Wu would participate. He stayed up all night preparing and finally stood out in the school's debate competition, qualifying to represent the school in that opportunity to face Pei Wu.
That's how he came into contact with Pei Wu, and that led to their subsequent interactions.
Given the social status of the Jin family, Jin Wei, who had attended elite schools since childhood, should not have appeared at the Capital University. His life trajectory had already been arranged.
If he hadn't been deeply in love with Pei Wu, he wouldn't have left the country to resist family pressure and even had a child with Pei Wu.
Putting everything else aside, although 'Bei Shang' is thriving now, if it had happened a few years earlier... it wouldn't have been difficult for the Jin family to take action against her...
Even so, he still said those unpleasant things... He was incredibly stubborn.
He took a picture of the food in the lunchbox and sent it to Pei Wu, replying, "President Pei is too modest; it looks quite good."
Pei Wu replied quickly.
'Try it.'
Pei Wu rarely cooks. She rarely even goes home. Before she went into the game pod, she spent six and a half days a week in the research lab. The other half day was just to go home to get a change of clothes. She usually ate in the cafeteria and slept in the research institute's rest room.
Her home is usually maintained by a housekeeper who comes regularly.
The last and only time was when I cooked that meal for Shao Sang. Although it looked good, the taste was really not good.
'When did President Pei learn to cook for himself?'
Jin Wei looked at the string of words he had typed on the screen, pursed his lips slightly, and thought of his answer when he asked Pei Wu what kind of man she liked using his alternate account. He pressed the delete key and retyped the string of words.
'It tastes good.'
How does the soup taste? Is it too sweet?
Even through the screen, Jin Wei couldn't help but recall what happened that afternoon. His cheeks flushed slightly, and he was stunned for a few seconds before remembering to grab a bowl. He poured the soup from the thermos into the bowl, and thanks to the thermos, the soup was warm and slowly steaming.
Jin Wei scooped up a spoonful and put it in his mouth.
After swallowing the sweet soup with a gurgling sound as he swallowed, Pei Wu remarked, "It's not sweet."
"I only had a romantic relationship with you in a game for a few years."
Pei Wu's words from that afternoon kept echoing in his mind.
