Chapter 481 - 491: Kiss if You are a Couple
Li Yifei reached out and shook hands with Wei Ziqiang, still speaking with neither servility nor overbearance, "To meet someone as important as Mr. Wei is also a pleasure for me."
Wei Ziqiang laughed heartily and said, "Mr. Li, you really have a way with words. You are Miss Su’s boyfriend, and she is the important one. I can’t compare to Miss Su, so please don’t make fun of me."
Although this was a self-deprecating remark, it suggested that Li Yifei only got to meet him because of his association with Su Mengxin, showing an underlying disdain for Li Yifei. However, being a man of schemes and high caliber, he naturally wouldn’t be so direct in his speech.
"Yeah, I’m just an ordinary guy. To have met Mengxin, I’ve always thought myself to be dreaming, and even now, I feel like the dream hasn’t ended."
Miss Su, the cousin of Su Mengxin, was dressed in a jumpsuit gown and was a stunning beauty herself, barely any less admirable than Su Mengxin, but lacked the aura that Mengxin carried, making her seem somewhat less significant. She had been curiously watching Li Yifei and interjected, "Are you really dating my cousin?"
Li Yifei looked at Su Mengfei, reminding him of the sprite-like Xu Shanshan, knowing that the cousin must have her doubts, he said, "Not quite, I guess?"
The remark left everyone momentarily stunned, all looking at Su Mengfei and Li Yifei in confusion, while Su Mengxin herself appeared utterly serene, even wearing a smile. Su Mengfei quickly pressed on, "What do you mean ’not quite’? Either you are, or you’re not."
Li Yifei turned to Su Mengxin, his eyes slightly narrowed and his gaze filled with happiness and intoxication. He said, "Mengxin is so beautiful and of such noble status, while I’m just an ordinary man. Yet now I can be with Mengxin, so I always refuse to believe that this is real."
Su Mengxin took Li Yifei’s hand and said softly, "Whether it’s a dream or reality, I, Su Mengxin, said I would be with you, and I will. Nobody can stop us."
Her words were filled with sincere emotion, and even Li Yifei could not detect a hint of falsity in them. They made him involuntarily enter the role, clasping Su Mengxin’s hand back and locking eyes with her, full of tender love. He said softly, "I believe, even if many people look down on me, thinking I’m a toad lusting after a swan, I won’t give up."
