Jin Wei raised his eyebrows even higher before lifting his eyelids to look at Pei Wu. "Have you really only met once? Have you added each other on WeChat?"
“We’ve only met once, and we haven’t added each other on WeChat, but we did exchange business cards.” Pei Wu paused for a moment before adding, as if she had just remembered something. “However, we did exchange a few text messages, but the content was just a few words of academic discussion, nothing more.”
Pei Wu spoke earnestly, and her careful recollection even made Jin Wei notice a bit of 'dumbness'.
“...”
Jin Wei snorted softly, turned his head away from Pei Wu again, and muttered under his breath, "What academic topics could a cardiologist like him have to discuss with you?"
But then, as if he couldn't contain his anger, he suddenly kissed Pei Wu's lips, even slamming his lips against hers and hurting them.
Jin Wei knew in his heart that the blind date was naturally interested in Pei Wu, but fortunately, Pei Wu used to be a blockhead who didn't understand romance.
They parted reluctantly, both of them panting heavily.
"Let's get married, that way...everyone will know we're a legal couple."
Jin Wei gripped Pei Wu's hand tightly.
"..." Pei Wu brushed aside Jin Wei's slightly long bangs and replied emphatically, "Okay."
After receiving Pei Wu's affirmative answer, Jin Wei took out a ring box from his pocket.
"What's this..."
Jin Wei opened the ring box, inside which were the same wedding rings they wore in the game.
Pei Wu's eyes flashed, and the tenderness in her eyes, which were already gentle as she looked at Jin Wei, seemed to overflow.
The two looked at each other and then suddenly burst into laughter. Pei Wu took out the women's ring and put it on herself, then took out the men's ring and put it on Jin Wei's.
Their eyes met, and everything was understood without a word.
*
The end of the month is fast approaching, with the Mid-Autumn Festival and National Day just around the corner.
Pei Wu and Jin Wei went to the Jin family together.
Clearly, Jin Wei had already informed his family in advance. Jin's father, who was traveling, had also returned, and even Jin Mu, who was usually unpunctual, had returned to the Jin family's old house early.
Actually, Jin Mu, as the older sister, didn't have a very good impression of Pei Wu. After all, she knew in her heart that Pei Wu was the culprit who caused her younger brother to get pregnant out of wedlock. However, she also knew very well that her younger brother had become 'infatuated' with this 'beautiful' CEO Pei.
On the contrary, Jin's parents, who knew nothing about the situation, were very satisfied with Pei Wu.
Pei Wu chatted and drank tea with Mr. and Mrs. Jin, who appreciated her eloquence and knowledge.
Pei Wu's family and herself are both impeccable. Jin's parents even have high praise for this young and successful "future daughter-in-law".
During dinner
Jin's mother asked Pei Wu, "I remember you also graduated from Capital University, so you and Xiao Wei were classmates in college?"
Pei Wu nodded and said "Mm." Then she added, "We're kind of university alumni."
Mr. Jin then asked, "So, how did you two get together? I remember that you two, 'Bei Shang,' and Xiao Wei's 'An Yang,' didn't seem to get along very well?"
Upon hearing this, Jin Wei subconsciously tightened his grip.
Just as he was about to speak, Pei Wu spoke first, "Actually, I... have had a crush on Xiao Wei for many years..." At this point, Pei Wu subconsciously glanced at Jin Wei, "I fell in love with him at first sight when I met him in a debate competition in high school. It's just that he went abroad later. As for 'Bei Shang' and 'An Yang', we have never been at odds. It's just that the media is trying to grab attention. We have always been... fair competitors."
Pei Wu was not good at lying. She had prepared this story for several days, but her cheeks still burned and her fingertips curled up unconsciously.
'She actually said that...'
Jin Wei was slightly taken aback. Pei Wu's words, "I never lie," still echoed in his ears, and he even remembered Pei Wu's expression when she said those words...
"I feel very lucky and happy to be with Xiao Wei now..."
Jin Wei's throat bobbed slightly as he listened to Pei Wu's words. His eyes were lowered, making it impossible to see his expression. Only the thin-rimmed glasses on his nose reflected a slight light. He unconsciously reached out and grasped Pei Wu's hand, which was trembling with guilt for lying.
The rings on their fingers gleamed under the overhead lights.
Even Jin Mu, who was standing next to him, unconsciously licked the corner of his lips.
Having personally participated in the game, she knew perfectly well that it was because Pei Wu fell in love with 'Shao Sang' that 'Shao Sang' returned to its original form, which meant that Pei Wu had indeed fallen in love with Jin Wei's soul within 'Shao Sang'.
Although love is an ethereal thing, the data in games doesn't lie.
She knew perfectly well that her younger brother was deeply in love with Pei Wu, and she had also witnessed Pei Wu's character in the game...
Thinking of this, Jin Muqian smiled and shook her head.
However, if... if her younger brother suffered any injustice at Pei Wu's place, she would definitely not allow it.
