Love Symphony: Let Your Heart Beat for Me-Chapter 98 - 55: Unique

The fireworks feast in the city was still ongoing, with the sound of crackling fireworks overwhelming her ears.

Whether from nervousness or excitement, Fu Weiheng’s palm, holding hers, was slightly damp with cold sweat.

He leaned over and embraced her, the deep, rich timbre of his voice unable to conceal its excitement: "Okay."

...

January 1st is Su Jingsheng’s memorial day.

On the first day of the New Year, the two of them got up very early.

Su Wan always placed great importance on today, and having had a good night’s sleep, she naturally woke up earlier.

For Fu Weiheng, this day was also significant.

It was the day Su Wan opened her heart to invite him in, the day he had longed for deep down.

In the morning, the sunlight was still hidden in the morning mist, a vast expanse, the air seemed laced with ice shards, chilling to the bone.

By the time they reached the cemetery, it was already past nine o’clock, the sun had risen, but the weak sunlight did not bring any warmth to the frigid mountain air.

After getting out of the car, Fu Weiheng went to the trunk to take out a basket of lilies he bought this morning and followed Su Wan into the cemetery.

Uncle He in the security booth saw Su Wan and a man approaching from afar, was slightly taken aback, but his face couldn’t hide his smile.

Su Wan greeted with a smile: "Uncle He."

"Girl, I knew you’d come today." He glanced at the extremely handsome man next to Su Wan and asked, "Boyfriend?"

Su Wan nodded bashfully.

Fu Weiheng smiled and nodded at him: "Hello."

"Hello, hello." He chuckled, "Go on in, it’s freezing in the mountain."

"Okay, Uncle He, goodbye."

...

After walking for over five minutes, they reached a grave area, Su Wan led Fu Weiheng up a few steps and then turned right, stopping finally in front of a tombstone. freёwebnoѵel.com

Su Wan crouched down and brushed the dust off the photo: "Dad, I’m here to see you."

She straightened up and turned to look at Fu Weiheng: "Neil, this is my dad."

Fu Weiheng took a small step forward, placed the basket of lilies before the tomb, and looking up at the familiar smiling face, was suddenly stunned.

Noticing his changed expression, Su Wan asked: "What’s wrong?"

"Nothing..." He raised his eyebrows slightly, a smile at the corner of his mouth, "Hello, uncle, I’m Fu Weiheng, Wanwan’s boyfriend."

...

When they left, it was almost eleven o’clock.

Being the first day of the New Year, few people were going up or down the mountain. Although the road was desolate, due to the winding mountain paths, Fu Weiheng had to slow down.

The cold mountain air made Su Wan reluctant to open the window. She left a small crack for ventilation, gazed at the unchanged scenery outside, stifled a yawn, and suddenly felt sleepy.

"If you’re tired, take a nap." Fu Weiheng, focused on the road ahead, closed the small window crack with a gentle voice, "Cover yourself with a coat."

Following his advice, Su Wan took the down jacket he had taken off before getting in the car from behind, covered herself, tucked in her neck, closed her eyes, and gradually fell asleep.

Soon, the sound of her steady and shallow breathing filled the car. Fu Weiheng glanced at her peaceful sleeping face and reached over to turn up the car’s heater.

A black sedan approached slowly on the curve ahead.

Instinctively, Fu Weiheng glanced at the distant car badge and plate coming closer.

Maybach S-Class.

License AL6889

Couldn’t be more familiar.

Knitting his brows, he eased off the accelerator, slowing down. As the two cars passed each other, he glanced sideways once more.

In the next moment, his grip on the steering wheel involuntarily tightened, almost distracted.

In the receding Maybach, Jiang Zhiyan was gripping the wheel. When he saw through the rearview mirror that the Cayenne became a mere black dot, he suddenly felt restless.

He hadn’t seen wrong; that was Neil’s car.

If so, then did Su Wan...

see it too?

A restless feeling stirred within him; craving a cigarette, he felt uncomfortable all over.

Glancing in the rearview mirror at Jiang Yun, who was napping with her eyes closed, his fingers, ready to pull out a cigarette, hesitated. Instead, he rolled down the window a bit for ventilation.

They reached the city center by noon, and Su Wan was in a groggy state from her nap. Feeling the car halt, she slowly opened her eyes and sat up, her voice drowsy and languid: "Are we there?"

"Not yet, there’s a red light at the intersection." Fu Weiheng pointed at the red light not far ahead, then took an unopened bottle of mineral water from under the door handle, unscrewed the cap, and handed it to her, "What do you want for lunch? Cantonese?"

Su Wan took a large sip from the bottle: "Okay."

At the restaurant, after they ordered, Fu Weiheng suddenly said: "When will you invite your roommates for a meal together?"

Su Wan almost choked on a sip of lemon water, feeling flustered: "Why suddenly..."

Fu Weiheng smiled gently, his expression soft: "After all, they took care of you for four years in my absence."

He added some water to her cup and said, "This meal is definitely necessary. Find a time to invite them out."

Su Wan’s face blushed slightly, and she softly said, "In that case, I should also invite Mr. Wei Jin Ye and Lawyer Jiang for dinner."

"That’s not necessary." He raised his hand and brushed his brow, "Once you marry over, they’re considered family."

His casual tone was as if saying, "Come over for dinner," leaving Su Wan unsure whether to take it seriously or just laugh it off.

Just then, the waiter arrived with a tray to serve the dishes, giving Su Wan the perfect opportunity to pull out her phone and play deaf as a way to dodge the subject.

Since she had her phone out anyway, she opened the WeChat group and told Xu Chengyang and Yao Ye about Fu’s invitation to dinner.

The two were probably up late again last night, and were likely still asleep. Five minutes after sending her message, there was no response from either of them.

Su Wan locked her screen, picked up her chopsticks, and placed a piece of barbecued pork into Fu Weiheng’s bowl while laughing, "Let’s eat."

Fu Weiheng looked at the vivid red barbecued pork in his bowl and smiled with a bit of helplessness.

Well, the young lady must think he was joking.

However, he was not in a hurry. She hadn’t graduated yet; he just mentioned it casually. After all, he had to formally propose.

The meal took nearly an hour, and Su Wan was absolutely stuffed.

Seeing the bustling mall, Fu Weiheng asked, "Do you want to browse around?"

Su Wan: "Hmm?"

Fu Weiheng laughed, "I don’t think I’ve ever gone shopping with you."

Su Wan had no objections, "I’m fine with it." Just consider it a walk to aid digestion.

With nothing particular to buy, they wandered around casually and then headed back to the car. When Su Wan reopened WeChat, there were already replies in the dorm group, just as she expected —

Mrs. Fu’s Little Chengyang: "Go! We must go! My senior is treating, even if I don’t give you face, I must give my senior face!"

It’s Yao Ye, not Yao Ye: "We must go, after stealing away my dear Su, I need some culinary comfort!"

Mrs. Fu’s Little Chengyang: "Wanwan, it’s better to take advantage of the day, we can’t really pass it up, since everyone’s on holiday, let’s go tonight."

It’s Yao Ye, not Yao Ye: "Agreed."

Su Wan: "..."

After a moment of silence, Su Wan glanced at Fu, who was calmly driving, and slowly said, "Neil, about what you said about inviting my roommates to dinner..."

"Hmm."

"...How about tonight? Seize the moment."

He only thought for a second, "Sure, ask them what they want to eat."

Su Wan waved her hand a bit embarrassingly, "No need, just pick any restaurant, they’re not picky..."

"Then let’s go to Magic." He took the phone from the center console and handed it to Su Wan, "Send a WeChat to Ivan and have him arrange a private room at Magic."

Su Wan hesitated for a moment, reaching out to push the phone back, but he added, "Be good."

This caused her face to flush, and obediently, she took the phone and opened his WeChat app to message Ye Yin Huan.

The dinner was scheduled for six o’clock, and around five, Su Wan messaged in the WeChat group, planning to pick up her two friends with Fu Weiheng at the school and head there together. However, both of them replied in unison — No need to pick us up!

Su Wan was a little surprised but didn’t insist as they were very firm. She got ready ahead of time and left with Fu Weiheng.

They arrived at Magic not long after, and soon Yao Ye and Xu Chengyang took a taxi over. Worried they might have trouble finding the private room, Su Wan went downstairs to wait at the entrance.

When they got out of the taxi, Su Wan was completely amazed by their stunning outfits.

Su Wan: "You two, did you specially dress up?"

Xu Chengyang spun halfway around, showing off her plaid skirt she was very pleased with, "What do you think? Aren’t you amazed?"

Yao Ye tugged at her slightly off-center knit neckline and raised an eyebrow, "Coming to such a high-end restaurant without dressing up would be a waste of the meal."

Xu Chengyang pressed the elevator up button and clicked her tongue, "That’s the only human-sounding sentence Yao Ye has said."

Yao Ye: "Get lost!"

Su Wan: "..."

Eating with Fu Weiheng wasn’t the first time for them, and Yao Ye and Xu Chengyang weren’t the type to feel awkward, so it didn’t take long before the dishes animated the atmosphere at the table, making for a lively conversation.

Su Wan suddenly remembered a few months ago when she unexpectedly brought Fu Weiheng to the private room at Yipinxuan, and their embarrassed and surprised looks.

At that time, she didn’t expect that in the months to follow, she and Fu Weiheng would develop such an unexpected relationship.

Going from strangers to being close-knit.

Time really does bring a lot of surprises.

"God, actually when Wanwan first brought you to Yipinxuan for dinner, we already thought you had a plan." Xu Chengyang laughed meaningfully.

Yao Ye accused, "We asked Wanwan if you liked her, and she reprimanded us for speaking nonsense."

He picked up the glass of red wine from the table, took a sip, and his eyes were full of laughter, very candid, "I did like her."

Xu Chengyang couldn’t stay calm, put down the knife and fork, and held Yao Ye’s hand, shaking it, "Ah ah ah, I knew it, how could someone as high-status as God with such a handsome face come to mooch a meal for no reason! Tell me! What else can escape my keen eyes!"

"..."

Su Wan’s face suddenly burned. She looked at Fu Weiheng’s calm demeanor and thought to herself —

What a cunning and sly old fox!
