His eyes were piercing cold against my emotionless one.
I have met this pair of eyes for a hundred of times- maybe thousands, I'm already used to it.
"Mrs. An, i-its not what you're thi-thinking, me and Mr. An a-are just colleagues-"
"Heh!" A'liu sneered at the pitiful heroine who looks like she was about to pass out. "That such an overused excuse"
"Ru Liu Ye" I can hear the warning in his voice and in the corner of my eye, see the slight stagger of A'liu.
I held her hand and signalled with my eyes for her to stop, she snorted once more and hid behind me.
At this point, the some passer-bys were already holding up their phone, each of them have curiosity and mocking laced in their eyes.
It was painfully familiar though it does not moved my numbed heart anymore.
"I'm sorry for misunderstanding"
I should've kicked him, cursed at him and say that I want a divorce but I know it won't happen.
Though what I say is not in the script, it was still aligned in my character.
He just look at me with those pair of black pools, his eyes squinting a little as if he was thinking which made my heart throbbed in pain.
Is he- is he really thinking about it?
This wasn't supposed to happen, I should've been mocked by him and embarrass myself in front of everyone and will flee in indignation.
This-
"I'll see you at home"
I blinked.
It truly is happening.
Something is changing, there really is something.
I could feel my eyes redden, it's been a long time since I shed tears voluntarily, usually it was because the script demanded it. But now, a year fell from my eyes and I smiled at him before responding.
"Um"
I didn't notice a strange look coming over someone and went out with a smile together with my still furious best friend.

An Yi Wei was now currently sitting on his office, the top floor where the sun highlighted the contours of his face. Atop his high bridge nose is a black metal ringed glasses igniting a mature temperament out of him.
The secretary standing in front of him can it gulp while thinking that this man is truly a perfect specimen.
His eyes were slightly covered by the glass lowering the solemn atmosphere in the office.
"Is it done?"
"Y-yes President An, everything's done according to your wishes" the secretary secretly wiped the sweat coming off of his face.
He just nodded in affirmation before letting the secretary go which greatly relieved the secretary and he immediately went out.
An Yi Wei was about to open his laptop and finish his work when he remembered the face of his supposed wife.
It was the first time that he saw her eyes lit up like jewels, as if her eyes held capture the stars from above and the year she had shed, it made him stiffen.
He had never liked her but he respects her as his wife though he will never give her the affection she desperately wanted.
After all...
