Su Wan softly encouraged herself, lifted her eyes and looked at Pei Mu Nian, her voice soft as she said, "The other day when I was sick, you took care of me for a night... it was I who pulled you in to take care of me, so I wanted to thank you, can... can I treat you to a meal?"
She originally called him over for dinner, rather than because of Su or Qian's issues.
Pei Muniang's long eyelashes blinked, the corners of his lips slightly raised, he coughed lightly and said in a pretentious tone, "Then I'll take a look at my schedule."
He got up from the sofa, walked to the office desk, casually flipped through a file on the desktop, which was full of schedules. He seemed not to have seen anything and opened his mouth lightly, "From 7 to 8 o'clock, I have an hour's spare time."
Su Wanwan glanced at the wall clock and saw that it was already 6:50. There were only ten minutes left until 7 o'clock, so she hastily asked, "Can I have this one hour?"
Pei Muni's fingers lightly tapped on the table, lost in thought.
Su Wanwan opened her big eyes and stared at Pei Mochen, hoping he would agree.
Time passed minute by minute, about a little over one minute, Pei Muni felt that he had pretended to be reluctant enough, and then feigned a difficult expression, "Okay."
Su Wanwan's eyes lit up, and she quietly made a "yes" gesture with her hand.
Pei Muni picked up the coat that was hanging and prepared to put it on. Su Wanwan quickly got up and helped him with his coat. A hint of sweetness flashed in Pei Muni's eyes, but it disappeared instantly. Then he picked up his wallet and car keys and said to Su Wanwan, "Let's go."
Su Wan nodded slightly, walked to his side, and turned her black eyes around before slowly raising her hand to try to hold onto Pei Mu Yan's arm.
When her hand grasped his, Pei Mochen was stunned for a moment, and his dark eyes suddenly fell on her hand.
His gaze was a bit piercing, Su Wanwan's hand trembled slightly, and she unconsciously wanted to withdraw it, but she gritted her teeth, persisted stubbornly, even squeezed out a smile, and said in a soft voice: "No, no need to mind?"
Her small white hand gently grasped his, actually without any strength, but Pei Mochen felt as if he had suddenly shouldered a heavy burden, yet he didn't dislike this kind of burden at all.
He has wanted to take on this burden for three years now.
Pei Muni hooked his lips and said in a low voice with a hint of mesmerizing magnetism, "Whatever you want."
Su Wanwan smiled with glee.
Pei Muni and Su Wanwan walked out of the office, Wu Assistant happened to come face to face, he was about to inform Pei Muni to attend a meeting, just opened his mouth to say a word "meeting", but was immediately shut down by a glance from Pei Muni, Wu Assistant fell silent.
Alright, for the sake of accompanying the young lady, all those meetings and whatnot are just fleeting clouds!
-
Because there was only an hour's time, Su Wanwan didn't want to go too far either, so she directly found a restaurant near the Pei Group.
When ordering food, Su Wanwan ordered all of Pei Mochen's favorite dishes based on her memory from three years ago.
When the waiter brought up the dishes one by one, Pei Muxuan looked at those dishes with a slightly dazed expression.
Back then, Su Wan chased him just to conquer him, sleep with him and prove her own charm. How could she... still remember his favorite flavor?
"You, have you always remembered?"
Although it was an incomplete sentence, Su Wanwan knew what Pei Muxuan was getting at.
His voice was still as calm as ever, but Su Wanwan seemed to hear the tremble in his voice, was he expecting her to remember?
