After saying this, both of them noticeably froze.
Shen Heyu hadn't expected that she would be so straightforward, especially in such a setting.
She felt she was losing face and slowly lowered her head.
But at this moment, she heard Pei Yansi earnestly say, "Yes, ever since you left, I've always wanted you to come back. Whether it was in the past or now, it has always been so."
Shen Heyu, upon hearing his words, lifted her head and looked at Pei Yansi.
She met his affectionate gaze, his eyes brimming with emotion, unlike his previously undisturbed coldness.
She was taken aback, having never seen him look at her with such eyes, as if he truly loved her to the core.
"Don't tease me," Shen Heyu said, deliberately making her voice sound cold, ignoring him.
She didn't believe he truly had any feelings for her.
