Wen Wannian's temperament can be described as elegant.
It has never been wild or icy, but rather gentle and graceful. His nobility is innate, and his humble background and ordinary job cannot conceal this nobility. His youthful and handsome appearance only adds to the sense of distance brought about by this nobility.
Just like now, the man was clearly sitting across from her, elegantly eating the food on his plate with a polite smile hanging on his lips. Yet Su Ruobai still couldn't feel his warmth.
The warmth of the heart.
"What's wrong?"
The sound that suddenly rang out snapped Su Ruobai back to reality.
He lifted his gaze, and the man across from him was already looking over, his pupils carrying a trace of a faint smile.
In the later years of his life, a constant twinkle of amusement sparkled in Wen's eyes, making it impossible for people to suppress their guard.
Su Ruobai's lips curled up in a slight arc as she spoke with a hint of mischief, "I'm wondering, how are you planning to deal with me?"
He is gambling.
Perhaps the previous Su Ruobai would have endured for a few days, months, or even years, based on the principle that there's still plenty of time in the future. However, now, in a situation where she can't determine when she will "wake up" from the dream, Su Ruobai will not ignore her curiosity.
He was not without reason. In his previous life, Wen Wannian should have chosen to "coldly deal" with his wife, while he himself was just unaware of Wen Wannian's true intentions.
Now, just on the second day of coming back to life, Wen Wannian could already feel that things were not as simple as he had imagined.
Sure! Here's the translation:
Sure enough, upon hearing Su Ruobai's words, the light in Wen Wannian's eyes dimmed involuntarily.
Our gazes met, only to see a vast expanse of openness and fearlessness.
Wen Wannian sneered mockingly in his heart.
Is this the timid and weakling that the Su family spoke of?
However, he had no intention of saying anything to Su Ruobai. Firstly, he never trusted Su Ruobai to begin with. Secondly, now that he knew Su Ruobai wasn't a pitiful and helpless person, he had to be on guard against this individual.
"What are you talking about?" Wen Wannian intentionally misinterpreted his meaning, saying, "I don't have a lover or someone I like, so you don't need to worry about any emotional troubles. As for money, although I can't compare to the Su family, I can still provide you with a worry-free life."
"You don't actually think that way in your heart," Su Ruobai pointed out.
Wen Wannian's expression remained unchanged as he said, "My heart remains steadfast."
Is this guy's skin bulletproof or something?
Su Ruobai, who had already spoken very straightforwardly, expressed that she didn't know what else to say. This person had made up his mind not to acknowledge, so there was nothing she could do.
However, his words could serve as a "get out of jail free card". In other words, no matter what he does in the future, he must not cross certain boundaries.
Without wasting any time, Su Ruobai took out her cellphone from her pocket. She unlocked it, opened the voice recording function, all in one fluid motion.
"Say what you just said again." With a slightly eager gesture, he held up his phone close to Wen Wannian's lips. "Come on, start!"
Wen Wannian: "......"
After a tasteless meal, the two of them left the restaurant together. Su Ruobai was planning to return to her room, while Wen Wanian was heading to the gym for a workout.
Su Ruobai glanced at her petite figure, hesitated for a while, and then followed along cheerfully.
To bring about change, the first step is to do things you have never done before.
Exercise, improving physical fitness, and cultivating one's character are fundamental methods to maintain good health.
In the previous life, Su Ruobai was constantly plagued by serious illnesses. Not to mention exercising, he wouldn't even step outside in rain or snow.
And now, he decided to make the most of his time and schedule fitness into his timetable while in Shangcheng.
In response to this, Mr. Wen, the 'sugar daddy' combined with 'caretaker' and 'top' of his, had no objections at all. In fact, he immediately took action and arranged for him to have a nationwide chain gym membership card.
