At that moment, Xiao Yu wanted to escape, yet she sat there motionless, her smile radiant, with an unseen bitterness and loneliness in her eyes. If she hadn't gotten involved with Gong Ting, she and Fu Zhengci might have been the happiest couple on earth.
But reality never entertains "ifs."
"I believe!" Xiao Yu heard herself say.
Fu Zhengci was taken aback; he hadn't expected Xiao Yu to respond like that. The emotions in his eyes grew stronger, "Xiao Yu, we..."
"The dishes are here, let's eat first." Xiao Yu gently interrupted him, picking up her chopsticks. The dishes Fu Zhengci ordered were the same ones they had on their first visit here, but at this moment, they tasted like wax to her.
She felt despicable, knowing full well his feelings for her, yet still entangling him.
She took just two bites before she couldn't continue. She put down her chopsticks and said, "I'm going to the restroom."
