"I still have some things to do this afternoon, so I'll cancel the meetings I have on hand," Pello informed Wen Maixue, who, upon returning to Country Z, humbled herself and actively requested to manage his work affairs. Pello knew Wen Maixue intended to arrange his life and work, yet he didn't want to expose every matter before the eyes of a woman.
The place where Su Ziceng asked him to meet was actually a park, contrary to Pello's preference for a more private location. This was out of self-interest, as well as for more convenient conversation. But she refused, marking the first time she had rejected his request.
Pello changed into the suit he wore for work, and it occurred to him that he rarely went on dates with Su Ziceng; their encounters were either at the company or at his apartment. Thinking of the apartment reminded Pello of that night, with Su Ziceng writhing beneath him, pleading for passion, the Su Ziceng who made it impossible for him to stop.
