Fu Chendao had just said goodbye and turned to leave when Pei Sui suddenly walked up behind Meng Sheng and asked abruptly, "What are you talking about?"

Meng Sheng was startled by him and turned to look at him, somewhat surprised, "When did you get here?"

“I sent you a message.” Pei Sui glanced at her.

"Oh, I know, the bag was vibrating."

But she was talking to Fu Chen at the time, so it wasn't appropriate to take out her phone to reply to a message halfway through the conversation.

Pei Sui stood with one hand in his pocket, his expression indifferent, his voice flat, only nodding his chin in the direction Fu Chen had left, "What did he say to you?"

They even hugged!

He was 100% certain that Fu Chen, that "old dog," had definitely seen him; their eyes had even met in mid-air.

As a result, Fu Chen actually pretended not to see it and looked away, continuing to ramble on.

Meng Sheng thought for a moment, "Hmm... I'll confess..."

"Confessing your feelings?!"

Pei Sui's eyes widened immediately. "He confessed to you?"

"Uh...yes." Seeing his strong reaction, Meng Sheng was afraid he would misunderstand, so she explained, "This afternoon I learned from Ye Shuqiao that Fu Chen has feelings for me, and then he also found out that I knew. When we came down just now, we met at the door and talked it out."

"I rejected him."

After saying that, she smacked her lips as if savoring the memory.

Hmm, why does that sound a bit convoluted?

The key point is the last sentence, "I rejected him."

Actually, the meaning of "let's put things out in the open" was quite obvious, but Meng Sheng felt that Pei Sui's expression was a bit off, and it would be better to make things clearer.

To avoid causing unnecessary misunderstandings.

Pei Sui looked away from her, his eyes deep and unfathomable. "Then why did he hug you?"

Seeing his serious expression, Meng Sheng couldn't help but laugh. She reached out and took his arm. "We just talked things out and gave each other a hug as a form of comfort. It didn't last long."

"You hugged for less than a minute, maybe half a minute."

"..."

This sounds like an accusation.

She looked surprised, then smiled and wrapped her arms around his waist, "I didn't realize our lawyer Pei was so jealous."

Pei Sui pursed his lips, wrapped his arms around her slender waist, and said nothing.

Meng Sheng comforted him, "A comforting hug for half a minute is enough, but when it comes to hugging a lover, I would spend ten minutes, hours, or even a lifetime, and I would never let go."

Pei Sui's expression shifted slightly; he was successfully pleased by the words "lover" and "I will never let go."

My heart was filled with thousands upon thousands of pink bubbles, which popped softly with a "pop".

He gazed at Meng Sheng's delicate and bright eyes, then his gaze slowly moved down to her pink lips. His Adam's apple bobbed, and he lowered his head to look down.

It was a heavy kiss, but not deep. Before parting, he lightly bit her lip, as if as punishment.

"You even bite people!" Meng Sheng glared at him angrily, then pulled him outside. "Come on, let's go home."

Pei Sui's lips curled up slightly, his solemn expression gradually relaxed, and he let her lead him.

His gaze, however, remained fixed on her, unblinking.

He had an impulse.

He wanted to hide her away, to only show her to himself, and to only let him hold her.

At that moment, the impulse almost soared into the sky.

Thinking this, he suddenly took a long stride, taking two steps in one, freeing his hands, and hugged her directly from behind.

Meng Sheng was taken aback by his large, almost intense hug, then chuckled softly and didn't struggle, letting him carry her forward.

"Attorney Pei, please be mindful of the impact; this is a public place."

She drew out the last syllable, as if teasing or flirting.

Pei Sui didn't say anything, kissed her earlobe and let her go, then quickly pulled her back to his car, started the engine, and sped away.

He looked very anxious.

Meng Sheng was a little confused. "What's wrong?"

Pei Sui remained silent.

Meng Sheng thought he was still jealous, and she even mentally prepared her words, thinking about how to coax him, but then she realized that this approach seemed a bit off.

"Aren't we going home? This..."

This is not the way home.

"You can also get to Jianing Road from here, it's just a bit of a detour."

Meng Sheng: "?"

Should we take this detour?

She didn't understand.

They don't want to respect it.

"Why would you choose to go this way out of the blue?"

"Something came up."

Although Meng Sheng didn't understand whether he had suddenly remembered something or what, she didn't say anything, assuming that he had some official business to attend to.

However, after driving for only about ten minutes, the car stopped on a sparsely populated road where only a few cars could be seen.

Meng Sheng was a little confused. If she were to take a ride-hailing car, she would worry that her life might be in danger.

"What are you doing...?"

Before she could finish speaking, she heard the sound of the safety buckle being released, and then a tall figure loomed over her, blocking the streetlights that refracted through the windshield into the car.

Meng Sheng was stunned, staring at him in shock, "You..."

As soon as the notes began, Pei Sui reached into the side of the seat and pulled it open, creating more space.

The next instant, her chin was pinched, and a passionate kiss landed on her, swallowing all her breath and words she wanted to say. Her other hand restlessly lifted her clothes and grabbed her breasts.

Meng Sheng's pupils dilated. Taking advantage of a moment when he was licking her, she grabbed his wrist. "You...you can't be serious?! You drove all the way here just for this?"

Pei Sui pecked at the corner of her lips, his voice hoarse, "Don't you want to try out Cullinan's enormous storage capacity?"

Meng Sheng was shocked. "So this is why you've been driving this Cullinan all this time?"

"No."

Pei Sui spoke in a serious tone, his breath hot, and slowly used his knee to pry open her legs that were pressed together. He knelt on one knee on the edge of the chair, the back of the chair slowly reclined, and his chest pressed against hers, completely touching hers.

"My Bentley is indeed undergoing maintenance."

"What about your other cars?"

"It's parked in the garage, didn't you see it? I'll show you when we get back later."

"..."

Meng Sheng was speechless for a moment, then glared at him irritably, "Do you really have to stay in the car? Can't you go back?"

Pei Sui frowned slightly, and said impatiently, "It's a bit difficult. You'll see if you don't believe me."

As she spoke, she took his hand down, and the scalding heat spread through his palm, causing Meng Sheng's face to flush instantly.

She bit her lip, asking in surprise, "When?"

She suddenly remembered how he had hurriedly pulled her into the car earlier. Could it have been then?

Seeing her "you're kidding me?" expression, Pei Sui knew she knew. Without arguing, he covered her lips again, pushing the slightly hot summer night to its climax.
