She once thought that only he, who always liked to wear camouflage and was always considerate, could see through her emotions.
Time and reality relentlessly exposed her mistakes, telling her that she was wrong, truly wrong. The person who saw right through her was not the masculine man in camouflage, but the man beside her, the domineering Ji Junyao, whom she found utterly repulsive.
On a rainy day, the car was stuck on the road for more than an hour before the car in front finally showed signs of moving.
Wei Yu stared blankly at the cars in front of him. There were all kinds of cars, ordinary ones and luxury ones. They all had one thing in common: they were all means of transportation.
A question suddenly flashed through Wei Yu's mind. She smiled and asked, word by word, "Tell me, they're both cars, both are means of transportation, so why do some girls prefer to ride in more expensive cars rather than cheaper ones? Look at that car over there that costs 120,000, isn't it pretty good?"
Ji Junyao remained firmly on the steering wheel, driving quietly. Just when Wei Yu thought Ji Junyao wouldn't answer her question, she heard his voice. He said, "Everyone has their own choices. Maybe they feel that their choices bring them happiness?"
“Yes, happiness.” Wei Yu lowered her eyes and repeated softly, “Everyone can choose happiness, so what about my happiness?”
Where is my happiness?
That short sentence, just five words, plunged Ji Junyao into despair. His heart ached, his hands gripping the steering wheel were bulging with veins, and the car sped off like an arrow.
Wei Yu chuckled, her laughter growing wider. She rolled down the car window, and the wind whipped her hair, making a mess of her once beautiful hairstyle.
Wei Yu knew Ji Junyao was angry. She glanced sideways at his handsome profile. If their relationship were simply that of superior and subordinate, she would definitely be captivated by such a dashing man. Unfortunately, they weren't...
"Mr. Ji, I'd like to have a drink. How about we go to a bar?"
From the torrential rain to the sudden appearance of sunshine, Wei Yu received no reply from Ji Junyao. However, his actions had already given her the answer.
He drove to the bar where they first met, took her hand, and led her into the private room where they first met.
Five years ago, when she was a freshman in college, she met a girl and made her first good friend. It was the first time she attended her friend's birthday party.
Five years have passed, but she still remembers the scene when the two first met.
She sat in a dimly lit corner, feeling inferior and trying her best to hide her presence. Her family background destined her to be out of place among the glamorous scions of wealthy families.
Her presence was so insignificant that no one noticed her, and she felt a little at ease.
However, she sensed something different. His sharp, eagle-like eyes were staring intently at her, and the feeling he gave her was terrifying.
She said goodbye to her friend and fled to the restroom, trying to escape the people and things outside, thinking she would go back after the banquet.
Anyway, since she was in that little corner, no one would notice her presence.
However, the man who had thrown her into a panic followed them.
"Does this place look familiar?" Ji Junyao's voice interrupted her thoughts.
