Nanxi frowned, thinking that Li Weihuan was rather domineering. She replied, "I’m not going to pay any attention to you, I’m going to eat!"
On the other end, Li Weihuan chuckled, "Okay, go ahead and eat! By the way, I’ll pick you up after work. I guarantee that when I appear, those men staring at you tonight will die of embarrassments!"
Nanxi pouted and mumbled a few things to him before hanging up.
After work in the afternoon, when Nanxi left the company, she did indeed see Li Weihuan driving a flashy red and white sports car, dressed incredibly trendy, even holding a bouquet of roses at the entrance waiting for her!
The luxury car, the handsome guy, the roses... This pleasing sight naturally attracted the gaze of many people nearby, especially the women. It almost turned into a scenic platform!
Nanxi was a bit embarrassed and hesitant to go over. Li Weihuan seemed to grasp her thoughts and walked straight towards her with the roses!
Nanxi kind of wanted to run away - it all felt a bit too much!
Li Weihuan came to Nanxi, and though he appeared to be a cool guy, Nanxi noticed he was also somewhat nervous, his eyes darting around with a suspicious blush on his face!
Li Weihuan shoved the bouquet into Nanxi’s arms, took her hand and walked away without uttering a word...
Yes, he didn’t say a single word!
Actually, Nanxi could somewhat understand Li Weihuan’s feelings. After being together for six years, they had done some quite romantic things. Li Weihuan had always been trying to learn the romance of other people’s relationships!
But something as "grand" as this affair today was a first!
Nanxi was shoved into the car by Li Weihuan, who she frowned at and asked, "Whose car is this?"
"My second sister’s!" Li Weihuan responded as he started the car!
"What about the roses?"
"Naturally, bought them!"
Li Weihuan glanced at her and asked, "Why, you don’t like it?"
"No!" Nanxi shook her head, "I really like it!" It was just, a little bit out of her comfort zone!
Li Weihuan took her to a lovely western restaurant for dinner, which made Nanxi feel a bit uneasy. She looked at him, "Did you come into some money?"
"No, why? Wanting to treat my wife to a decent meal, isn’t that quite normal?"
Nanxi’s eyes darted around, but she didn’t say anything else.
Li Weihuan’s hand reached out to hold hers, he told Nanxi, "I might be getting busy soon, working on a project with my dad, but I promise, I will make time for you, no matter how busy, I will make time for you!"
Nanxi pursed her lips and nodded, "Work hard!"
"There’s another thing!" Li Weihuan paused, seeming a bit unsure of how to broach the subject.
Nanxi looked at him. Actually, she had been aware that Li Weihuan might have something to tell her. She didn’t ask, just waited!
Finally, Li Weihuan spoke, "Nanxi, this weekend, I want to take you to my house for dinner!"
Nanxi was surprised, "Did you ask or was it your mother’s request?"
"It was my second sister, she said that since I’m set on you, they can’t change my mind, so they will try to slowly accept..."
He paused, then continued, "Nanxi, don’t worry, with me there, they won’t dare bullying you! Actually, I’ve never taken their opinions to heart, but I know you care, and you don’t want to cause a rift between me and my family because of you, so that’s why I agreed to this invitation..."
"I understand, Weihuan, I do!"
Because she understood, there wasn’t any need for him to explain anything!
When she returned to the dormitory that night, Nanxi told Lan Qiqi and Yang Su about her upcoming dinner with Li Weihuan’s family. Both of them were very surprised upon hearing this.
Yang Su asked, "So, do you plan to go? Would Li Weihuan’s mother...approve of you?"
Nanxi frowned and shook her head, "I have no other choice!"
Upon hearing this, Yang Su sighed. Indeed, what choice did she have, at least at this point, there was no choice!
Yang Su said, "Nanxi, you can’t drag this on. The longer it gets dragged, the worse the hurt..."
Nanxi pursed her lips and replied, "I know!"
The next day, when Nanxi went to work, she was busier than the day before!
Yesterday, her colleagues were courteous, treating her light and politely, but today, a few of them had started to give her the cold shoulder!
They ordered her to do things like fetching tea, water, sending and copying documents. Nanxi didn’t find it troublesome and did it as requested!
Regarding Li Weihuan’s spectacle yesterday, as expected, she was questioned about it!
