He was furious and hated her so much that he wanted to strangle her to death, but in his heart, there was a thread of inexplicable joy.
At least when Su Wanwan had something to ask of him, she could take the initiative to get close to him.
He both resented her deliberate approach and yet couldn't help but crave her proximity.
-
The day she met Mrs. Pei, Pei Muni didn't show up. Although Mrs. Pei explained that it was because something urgent came up at Pei Muni's company, Su Wanwan knew in her heart that he simply didn't want to come.
He promised to marry her, probably also reluctantly?
Perhaps it was just because their affair had been exposed in the press and he didn't want any bad publicity, so he felt obligated to take responsibility for her.
It's better this way... at least she won't hold onto any false hopes anymore.
The whole evening, Su Wanwan was like a commodity for sale, allowing Su Zhenhua to promote her and Mrs. Pei to size her up. The only thing she could do was maintain a smile and sit quietly.
Mrs. Pei had never understood why, after all these years, no matter how hard she tried to persuade her own son to settle down with a woman, he suddenly changed his mind, and when she saw Su Wanwan for the first time, she completely understood.
Her son wasn't unwilling to look for someone, but... other women just weren't what he wanted, right?
She knew that Pei Muxuan had liked a girl in college, and although she didn't know who the girl was, she had seen her photo. The photo was a bit blurry and only showed her profile, so she hadn't been able to connect it to Su Wanwan until now. But tonight, as soon as she saw her, she was certain that Su Wanwan was indeed the girl her son had liked.
She indeed looked forward to her son getting married and having children, and even demanded that as long as it was a girl, he would agree to marry her.
Su Wanwan didn't think there was anything wrong with her, she had already heard too many flattering words from her cousin, but at the same time, she was also very puzzled, why did it have to be Su Wanwan? She almost became her cousin's daughter-in-law! How could she face her cousin in the future?
Mrs. Pei was thinking while sighing ceaselessly.
Su Zhenhua saw this and hastily said: "Madam Pei, is anything wrong?"
Mrs. Pei shook her head, "Nothing's wrong, but..."
She paused for a moment, thought about it and said: "As for Mu Nian and Wan Wan's marriage, I think they can get the certificate first, and as for the wedding ceremony, let's wait until things calm down a bit before holding it."
Su Zhenhua's face didn't look too good, he wanted Su Wanwan to marry Pei Muni, just to borrow the prestige of the Pei family and make a comeback, but if they don't hold a wedding ceremony, who would know that the Su and Pei families were united in marriage?
"This......"
Mrs. Pei also knew that her request was a bit excessive, but she had to think of the reputation of the Pei family after all, Su Wanwan was still the Palace's future daughter-in-law just a few days ago.
"Mr. Su, don't worry, as soon as this matter blows over, I will immediately prepare their wedding."
Su Zhenhua was still hesitating, when Su Wanwan suddenly spoke up beside him, "I agree!"
Mrs. Pei couldn't help but look at Su Wanwan with joy beyond expectation, "Wanwan, you really agree?"
Su Zhenhua's eyes sank, and he was about to say something, but Su Wanwan had already nodded without hesitation. "Yes, I agree, let's not have a wedding for now."
