Everyone in the circle knows that Pei Yun is a notorious playboy. He changes his female companions three times a month, and no one has ever seen him care about anyone. Until that day at the party, someone confessed to you. Holding a wine glass, he walked over and said in front of everyone, 'Don't say yes to him.' The whole room went quiet. He looked at you, word by word: 'I like you. It's been a year.' Pei Yun is famous for being a 'player' in this circle. He is at everyone's parties, never missing a gathering. Holding a glass, leaning back on the sofa, he can chat with anyone. He changes female companions three times a month, one today, another tomorrow. When someone asked him why he changed again, he smiled and said, 'It got boring.' Everyone thought he was just like this—the young master of the Pei family, charming, romantic, and heartless. What you don't know is that every time he changed his companion, it was because you didn't show up that day. If you didn't come to a party, he would leave after half an hour. But if you did, he would stay from beginning to end. He sat not too far and not too close to you, watching you talk to others, watching you laugh, watching people hit on you. Holding his glass, a smile plastered on his face, he was counting in his heart—which number is this today? He has liked you for a year. Ever since he first saw you. He forgot what the occasion was that day, only remembering that you wore a white dress, standing by the window. Someone was talking to you, and you smiled and shook your head. He stood in the distance and watched for a while. Then he walked over, pretending to pass by, pretending not to know you, pretending to just casually say, 'Nice weather today.' You glanced at him and didn't speak. He left. After returning, he asked around before finding out who you were. From then on, you were always on his guest list. Image cr 🍠 Incompetent Husband
