The Most Humiliating Reunion (6)

Three days later.

When Su Wanwan got off work, she received a call from Gong Lingyu saying that he was driving over to pick her up for dinner. Su Wanwan smiled and agreed.

It happened to be May 20. Although it wasn’t Valentine’s Day, it was a special day for lovers because 520 signified “I love you” in Chinese.

Gong Lingyu took Su Wanwan to a restaurant, ordered a couple’s set meal, and opened a bottle of red wine. While the two were enjoying dinner, Su Wanwan happened to look up and see a tall, lean figure ambling through the entrance.

Her grip on her knife and fork suddenly tightened and her eyebrows knitted together unconsciously.

Why… have I run into him again?

As if he sensed her gaze, Pei Munian’s coal-black eyes turned towards Su Wanwan. Her heart skipped a beat and she hurriedly hung her head as her body involuntarily hunched forward.

Although she knew that he would probably treat her like a stranger even if he noticed her, she still didn’t want him to spot her for some reason.

Unfortunately, things usually don’t go according to people’s wishes.

From the corner of her eye, she saw Pei Munian taking long strides towards her, one step at a time. With each step he took, Su Wanwan felt as though he was stepping on her heart. Finally, he came to a halt next to her table.

Her breathing seemed to have stopped in that instant. Su Wanwan stared at Pei Munian’s bright leather shoes in a daze.

What… is he doing?

Before Su Wanwan could figure it out, Gong Lingyu’s deeply surprised voice suddenly rang out in her ear: “Brother? Why are you here? When did you return to China?”

Brother?

Instantly, Su Wanwan’s black pupils dilated and her head jerked up. Staring in shock at the man standing beside her, her mind went blank.

Pei Munian is Gong Lingyu’s brother?

How did that happen…?

Su Wanwan sat there in a daze, unable to digest this fact.

“I came back a few days ago,” Pei Munian replied nonchalantly. His voice was low with a charming magnetism about it as if it could bewitch people’s hearts.

After a momentary pause, Pei Munian lowered his eyes and cast a fleeting glance at Su Wanwan. Seeing the shock and alarm in her eyes, the corners of his lips curled up slightly and his thin lips parted. “Aren’t you going to introduce her?”

“Look at me—I’m so happy that I forgot to make introductions.”

Gong Lingyu smiled and smacked his head. Then he looked at Su Wanwan and was about to introduce her when he saw the dazed look on her face. It was only after he called her several times that she absent-mindedly snapped out of it and replied with “Hmm?”

Gong Lingyu couldn’t help but tease her. “Wanwan, why are you in a daze? Although my brother is really handsome, I’ll get jealous if you keep ogling at him like that without even blinking!”

Su Wanwan’s cheeks flushed slightly and she looked down while forcing a smile on her face.

Gong Lingyu pulled Su Wanwan to her feet and his arms naturally wrapped around her waist as he said with a smile, “Wanwan, let me formally introduce to you. This is my cousin, Pei Munian, the crown prince of the Pei family. You must’ve heard of him before, right?”

Heard of him? It’s far more than that…

“Brother, this is Wanwan, the second daughter of the Su Family Corporation and also the love of my life whom I’ve been telling you about.”

Pei Munian’s gaze darkened and he turned his deep and dark eyes towards Su Wanwan. The moment their eyes met, Su Wanwan felt a strong oppressiveness washing over her, causing her body to tremble uncontrollably.

As much as she tried her best to look calm on the outside, her tightly clenched fists revealed her true feelings.
