She looked at him. Her gaze was resolute. "Let's date, Tinghao."


The office was quiet. A cold breeze blew into the room and it sent shivers down Fu Tinghao's spine. He reached out to button the top buttons back.


He couldn't believe his ears. For a moment, he feared he had heard the wrong thing. He lifted his head and he looked at her. She was looking at him quietly as though waiting for him to speak.


He couldn't help but shake his head and laughed dryly. But, there was a lack of humor in his voice. 


"Tang Wan, it's not April Fools Day. Can you stop pulling my leg?"[1]


Tang Wan was speechless. She looked carefully at him and realized that he didn't seem to be kidding. He really didn't believe her words. 


She pursed her lips and repeated, "I mean it. Let's date."


Then, she stressed, as though to make her words more believable.


"I love you."


Fu Tinghao was stunned. He stared at her in a daze. It was then he felt the urgency in her words. He could sense the sincerity in those words.


She said she loved him. He was unable to react, trying to comprehend her words. He felt a surge of happiness invade him. It was as though he was in the clouds.


But on the surface, he was calm and his head was lowered. After some time, he looked up at her and gave a small chuckle, "Tang Wan, why do you like playing around like this? Just yesterday, you said you couldn't love anyone. I already accepted my fate that my love will forever be one-sided. But now, you are telling me you love me?"


Tang Wan lowered her head as embarrassment sunk in. He was right. She had been unresponsive to his advances for a long time. And suddenly, she confessed to him. Anyone would feel doubtful.


She opened her mouth to talk but he didn't let her…


He cut in. "I don't love you anymore though."


Tang Wan looked at him. He was staring at her seriously. His eyes were fixated on her and he seemed to be deadly serious.


Of course, she had no idea he was only playing hard to get.


Her heart skipped a beat. As his words sunk in, she felt a surge of panic. Her chest tightened as though there was a hand squeezing it. It was extremely uncomfortable. 


Was this how he felt all this while? No, she could not accept this outcome.


"Fu Tinghao…"


He looked at her. "I can't accept your love." Then, he picked up the light switch remote and clicked on it. The light immediately came on and the surroundings brightened. 


He then turned to the documents on the desk. He picked the blue fountain pen in the pen holder and stated, "I got to work."


He lowered his head and began to write seriously. He didn't look at her anymore. Tang Wan was unable to move as she looked at that handsome face. She felt a strong sense of panic she had not felt in a long time.


She didn't know what suddenly got into her. But, she rushed towards him and grabbed him by the collar.


Then, she grabbed his chin and lifted his face up to look at her. She could vaguely see traces of emotions in his eyes too. But, she couldn't dwell on that anymore.


She lowered her lips to his. She kissed him.

They were all discussing about how loving and patient Feng Jun was.
But in reality...
It was all a sham.

My Family's Wanwan Is A Top Star Director

The cat had slept with Tang Wan the night before. It was calm and peaceful and Tang Wan enjoyed its company. However, she was aware she couldn't possibly hoard someone else's cat. The owner might have been looking for it.

Thus, early the next morning, she took it out of her room intending to go look for the attendant downstairs in the lobby. She had barely walked out of the elevator however when she sighted Fu Tinghao standing at the door of the building.

He was staring at her intently. Or rather, he was staring at the little bundle wrapped in her arms. Tang Wan didn't think he could be the owner. She merely wondered why he was staring at her that way.

And then, she reverted her gaze and turned towards the attendant's counter. It was a woman at the counter that day. She was a young lady about Tang Wan's age.

The moment Tang Wan stopped in front of her, she flashed a small, professional smile. "Hello, Miss. How may I help you?"
