Chapter 504: Retreat as Advance (6)

Xi Zhiwei smiled, handed the menu back to the manager, and said, "Two glasses of warm water, then."

Even if he came to drink warm water in such a high-end coffee shop, the manager's respectful expression remained unchanged. He took back the restaurant and nodded: "Okay, please wait a moment."

After the manager left, Xi Zhiwei's two assistants also sat at other tables, and the place suddenly became quiet.

Su Wanwan looked at Xi Zhiwei in silence. Xi Zhiwei let her look at him without avoiding her gaze at all. He was even more contented than she was.

The confusion in Su Wanwan's eyes became deeper and deeper.

If Xi Zhiwei was really the third party who interfered with her marriage to Pei Munian, why didn't she feel any shame in front of her?

She heard what the two guests said just now. It was impossible for her not to hear it. So how could she keep her expression unchanged and smile so nonchalantly in front of her?

The world after Su Wanwan woke up from surgery has always been simple and innocent, so she spoke directly and did not know how to beat around the bush. At this moment, she was also blunt, "I just saw you buying a bag in the store, and the clerk said, What you used was Niannian’s secondary card, right?”

Su Wanwan's directness was a bit unexpected to Xi Zhiwei. She raised her eyebrows slightly, her eyes flashed, and she smiled, "Sister Wanwan, have you seen it? Then if I say no, you Do you believe it?"

Her rhetorical question was even more jarring than the direct answer.

Su Wanwan's hand on the table clenched suddenly, and her eyes became sharp, "Why do you have Nian Nian's secondary card?"

Xi Zhiwei seemed to find Su Wanwan's question funny, her eyebrows arched, "Sister Wanwan, I think you should ask Brother Mu Nian about this question. What he gave me is naturally his reason."

Su Wanwan knew that the secondary card would not be given to anyone casually, usually to immediate family members or partners and lovers. However, Pei Munian gave the secondary card to Xi Zhiwei, which at least meant that their relationship was unusual!

But……

"Nian Nian told me that you two have nothing to do with each other. How could he give you the secondary card casually? Could it be that...you got it by some means?"

The smile on Xi Zhiwei's lips stiffened a little, but Su Wanwan's unintentional words touched the pain in her heart.

Indeed, she wanted the secondary card. At that time, Pei Munian promised her a lot of compensation and gave her an unlimited card, but she was unwilling to accept it. She could not let Pei Munian buy him out with money no matter what. Feeling guilty, she asked to replace the unlimited card with his secondary card.

She was never willing to give up just like that, so even if it was a relationship of self-deception, she was willing to indulge in it.

But now, this secondary card has an additional benefit. No matter what she did before, she could not attract Su Wanwan's attention or stimulate her memory. This secondary card is just the weapon that can defeat her.

However, after so many face-to-face confrontations with Su Wanwan, she suffered a loss every time, and now that Pei Munian was protecting her like that, she couldn't help but tremble when she thought of his dark and cruel eyes, so she could no longer compete with him. Su Wanwan was facing a tough situation, so she could only be soft and retreat in order to advance.

"Since Brother Mu Nian said it doesn't matter to us, then it doesn't matter to us. This card should be regarded as something I obtained through some means."

Xi Zhiwei still smiled, but the smile had a hint of sadness, "Let me put it this way, Brother Mu Nian will be satisfied."
