Seeing Jin Wei's insistence, Pei Wu couldn't help but chuckle and said, "Well... since you're so sure, I can't deny it anymore. So maybe it's just... a laugh."
Jin Wei felt no joy at Pei Wu's agreement, though he heard her agree. He snorted softly and turned his head slightly away, muttering to himself, "She used to be such a serious person..."
In his memory, Pei Wu rarely smiled; the corners of her lips were always slightly downturned, and her brows were always furrowed, making her look preoccupied.
"Hmm?" Even though it was a soft mutter, Pei Wu clearly noticed and slightly turned her head to examine him. The sunlight shone on Jin Wei's face, gilding his handsome features with a faint golden hue. "Perhaps...love makes people...gentle?"
"..." Jin Wei raised his eyebrows slightly upon hearing Pei Wu's words.
“I don’t think I’ll ever have an assistant again.” Pei Wu paused briefly, then looked away from Jin Wei’s face, coughed lightly twice, and continued, “Especially… a male assistant.”
Her earlobes were slightly red.
Jin Wei stopped and stared blankly at Pei Wu as if he wanted to say something, but after slightly opening his thin lips, he suddenly pursed them and remained silent.
'This piece of wood... has actually come to its senses.'
He only said a few words in the car... and she actually...
"As for Ji Jiang... he will still go abroad. Everything abroad has been arranged, but it was delayed because of my previous matter."
"you..."
'I thought she was still a block of wood... but she can already see right through me from just a few words...'
Jin Wei's heart was pounding so hard that if he hadn't pursed his lips tightly, his heart would have jumped out of his throat. He didn't know why his eyes were suddenly sore and swollen. He quickly turned his head away from Pei Wu and took a step forward before her.
"It's your own business, you can decide for yourself."
At this moment, Jin Wei's voice was very soft, blending with the wind he created with his steps, and entered Pei Wu's ears.
Pei Wu quickly caught up with Jin Wei, and the two walked around the campus for a long time before Pei Wu spoke again to continue the previous topic, "Now, we are a couple, and in the future we may be legal partners... so I should consider your feelings."
The campus was filled with students, and the interplay of scenery and shadows evoked many memories between the two of them.
At this moment, the soreness in Jin Wei's eyes had subsided considerably, leaving only a slight redness. He murmured softly what Pei Wu had said, "Partner?"
"You mean you're interested in marrying me?"
Pei Wu nodded and then asked, "Do you intend to marry me?"
Jin Wei looked into Pei Wu's serious eyes, pursed his lips slightly, and then lowered his eyes and remained silent for a while.
He had never considered this question, nor dared to consider it. His relationship with Pei Wu was quite simple: he had secretly loved Pei Wu for many years. He had never considered marrying someone who hid in the shadows just to catch a glimpse of her.
After a moment, he slowly replied, "If the relationship goes smoothly... marriage is a natural progression."
When marriage is mentioned, Pei Wu naturally thinks of her two children in the game. Although she can clearly distinguish between the game and reality, she still feels a pang of sadness when she thinks of her children's cute little faces, and her expression becomes more melancholy.
Even though it's a game, the interactions between them were real.
"good."
Seeing Pei Wu's dejected response, Jin Wei turned to look at her, his eyes flickering as he wondered if his momentary hesitation had displeased her.
"Are you... in a bad mood?"
"Hmm." Pei Wu nodded slightly and turned to look at Jin Wei. "Every time I think of Niannian and Nian Nian, I always feel lonely."
Pei Wu's words triggered many memories from the game in Jin Wei's mind. He always recalled Shen Yu Nan's memories in the game in fragments. The trigger for recalling the game memories might be a sentence from Pei Wu, or it might be his heart pounding wildly when he thought of Pei Wu.
