Hearing Qingwu agree with him, Pei Jue's smiling face was reflected in the pristine glass window.
His voice carried a deep, captivating allure.
"This time, let it go. Next time, I hope you can remember the promises you made to me, even if it's just having a meal together. I'll look forward to it."
Just the thought of dining with Qingwu gave him the patience to deal with those annoying partners. Whenever he had some free time, he would look up which restaurants young girls liked to visit for dates, yet she quietly left Beijing...
What an ungrateful little thing!
Did she really think it was just a meal?
Pei Jue knew in his heart that perhaps it was because his little girl hadn't given him a place in her heart yet, so the things he asked for could be forgotten...
This realization left him feeling somewhat bitter.
Qingwu touched her nose, unsure whether she felt ashamed or guilty...
"I know, it was my fault this time. I'll make it up to you when I get back."
