After dinner, Jin Wei saw Pei Wu off. As they passed the garden, Jin Wei, who had been holding back all night, finally asked Pei Wu, "Why...why did you say that?"
Pei Wu told 'Shao Sang,' who had no memory of Jin Wei, that she would not lie.
However, Jin Wei, who now possesses a complete memory, not only has the memories from the game, but also knows Pei Wu quite well.
Pei Wu stopped and looked at Jin Wei, who had stopped in his tracks. She lightly kissed Jin Wei's forehead and said, "Are you... angry?"
"..." Jin Wei pretended to cough twice and turned his head away from Pei Wu after hearing her words. As he swallowed, his eyes flickered, and there seemed to be a fleeting shyness in his eyes as he avoided Pei Wu. "It's not that I'm angry, I'm just curious, curious why you said that."
Jin Wei's heart pounded. He awkwardly tidied the hair around his ears, revealing his exquisite ears. The studs on his earlobes added to his noble air.
He wondered if Pei Wu, who never lied, might actually... like him.
"If I could, I wish I could understand your heart sooner." Pei Wu reached out and stroked Jin Wei's hair by his ear. Her gaze was also drawn to the earring on his earlobe. Her hand then stroked Jin Wei's earlobe again. The hard texture of the purple diamond pricked Pei Wu's fingertips.
Pei Wu rubbed it a couple of times and then withdrew her hand.
"I want your family to know how much I love you. If I could, I would even wish that the person I've secretly loved for so many years was myself."
Pei Wu felt that in her relationship with Jin Wei, she had not only been passive, but also in a position of benefiting from him. She had unknowingly accepted Jin Wei's long-standing crush, his body, and even his two lovely and intelligent children.
“And you’re a boy.” Pei Wu looked at Jin Wei, her eyes filled with even more determination. “From now on, no matter who asks, I will say that the person I had a crush on was me. I had a crush on you for many years and it took a lot of effort to finally win you over.”
"..." Jin Wei was stunned for a few seconds, then snorted softly and said, "That blockhead has actually gone astray."
Pei Wu's smile deepened. "It's getting late, let's go back."
"I'll take you back," Jin Wei said.
"Let's skip it today." Pei Wu's gaze passed over Jin Wei and looked further into the distance. "Your sister is waiting for you."
Jin Wei turned around subconsciously after hearing Pei Wu's words, but did not see Jin Mu.
Where?
Pei Wu's smile deepened as she looked at Jin Wei's expression. "Are you afraid of her?"
"Who's afraid of her? I just don't want to listen to her gossip."
"Don't worry, she didn't follow us from the pavilion we just passed. Go back and get some rest; I'll pick you up tomorrow."
Tomorrow is the day Pei Wu and Jin Wei have agreed to visit the Pei family.
"Don't be nervous, my parents are easy to get along with."
"Who's nervous..."
Pei Wu kissed Jin Wei's forehead again. "Let's go back. It's getting chilly at night lately."
"I'll go back after I see you leave."
"Um."
Pei Wu walked towards the parking lot in the garden, glancing back at Jin Wei who was standing there every now and then.
Jin Wei stared at Pei Wu until she got into the car and left before turning back.
Jin Mu was indeed waiting for Jin Wei at the pavilion not far ahead.
"Shall we chat for a bit?" Jin Mu said.
"Um."
Jin Wei had basically guessed what Jin Mu wanted to say to him.
It's basically just an older sister's concern and advice for her younger brother.
