Chapter 99 "I..."
"Pei Shuwen, look! Why are they coming this way? Could they have spotted us?"
Zhao Huai'an covered himself up completely, looking like a guilty thief.
Pei Shuwen: "You brought me here so she could see us, didn't you?"
"That's right."
Zhao Huai'an hadn't reacted yet.
Pei Shuwen has already moved on from that time with great composure.
Depend on!
It's over just like that?
What if they start fighting right away?
Although he was confident in Pei Shuwen's fighting skills.
But if a real fight broke out, Zhao Huai'an was still somewhat worried.
But before he could follow,
Pei Shuwen was already hugging that blond foreigner.
Zhao Huai'an: ? ? ?
What's going on?
Did Pei Shuwen stay up too late and get dizzy, hugging the wrong person?
How can you not tell the difference between your own wife and your love rival?
This is truly bizarre.
Lin Chaoyue was also surprised.
Lin Chaoyue looked at the two people: "You, you know each other?"
Darren: "Pei! I never expected to see you here! It's been so many years since we last met!"
Five years.
Darren excitedly pulled Lin Chaoyue along to introduce her: "This is my junior sister! A very beautiful Eastern woman! I'm introducing you to her! You two are a perfect match! You can date."
Since Pei wasn't someone Ayla knew, he could introduce them, and then they could get to know each other.
He knew.
In China, this is called "matchmaking," a very prestigious profession.
Ayla's boyfriend is definitely not Pei Hao!
Lin Chaoyue: "..."
If I remember correctly, Darren was just about to meet her boyfriend.
How did it get to this point?
The tone suddenly shifted, and it became about introducing her to a new boyfriend?
Pei Shuwen glanced at Lin Chaoyue and asked, "Are you single now?"
Darren interjected, "No, but she and her boyfriend have a conflict and aren't seeing each other. Her boyfriend went out..."
"I am not single."
Sensing what Darren was about to say, Lin Chaoyue decisively called a halt.
“Darren, he is my boyfriend, we are already dating.”
Darren's eyes lit up instantly, and he pointed incredulously at the two of them with his small hand: "You two? In love! It's truly fate that brought us together from afar! Destiny triumphs over heaven! It was you all along!"
Darren said one of his Chinese teachers was a poet.
Lin Chaoyue initially didn't believe it.
But now she suddenly feels that even if he's not a poet, he's still a stand-up comedian, the kind who knows how to use puns.
They introduced themselves to each other.
We're all acquaintances.
Two more people joined us for the hot pot dinner that evening.
Lin Chaoyue and Pei Shuwen sat facing each other, while Zhao Huai'an sat next to Pei Shuwen, staring intently at the two people opposite them.
Who are you two?
“We worked together on Professor Yellen’s project abroad.”
"So how did you two meet?"
Zhao Huai'an has known Pei Shuwen for so long, how come he has never heard of him ever knowing this blond guy?
Pei Shuwen: "Classmate."
Darren excitedly raised his hand: "We even slept in the same bed!"
The other two looked shocked.
Pei Shuwen: "Yeah, he went to the wrong dorm room, so I moved off-campus afterwards."
Since we're classmates...
That kind of acquaintance is not surprising.
Lin Chaoyue was curious as to why Pei Shuwen happened to be at the ski resort at such a coincidence.
"What brings you here? Are you here to ski too?"
Pei Shuwen remained silent.
Zhao Huai'an snorted coldly: "Let's see if some people are really that heartless."
Certain people?
she?
Lin Chaoyue couldn't think of anyone else besides her.
Lin Chaoyue pursed her lips nervously and looked at Pei Shuwen opposite her: "You came here specifically to see me?"
Except for the day I spent the whole night in front of Pei Shuwen's door.
She's been spending a lot of time with Darren lately.
I haven't had a chance to see him again yet.
Pei Shuwen hummed in agreement.
Lin Chaoyue said somewhat awkwardly, "I originally wanted to contact you a couple of days later."
Zhao Huai'an snorted again: "If it had been two days later, the wound would have healed by then, and there would be no need for anyone to take care of it."
"Wound? What wound?"
Pei Shuwen was gesturing for Zhao Huai'an to shut up.
But Zhao Huai'an didn't care about all that: "Of course, I'm afraid that something might happen to certain people, and that my car might get hit."
"Some people, on the other hand, still have the mood to hang out with other men these past few days..."
Lin Chaoyue didn't understand.
Her gaze met Pei Shuwen's directly.
He didn't look at himself, but simply got up and said, "I'm going to the restroom."
Our gaze returned to Zhao Huai'an.
What's wrong with saying this?
Pei Shuwen remained silent.
He said.
Zhao Huai'an: "It's all because of you..."
On the day of Ningcheng's first snowfall, Zhao Huai'an recounted the cause and effect of the car accident in just a few words.
Lin Chaoyue: "Excuse me, I'm going to the restroom."
--
Lin Chaoyue stood outside the restroom carrying her bag.
When Pei Shuwen saw this, he assumed she wanted to leave.
He was taken aback at first, then asked her, "Do you want me to take you back?"
“I’m not going with Darren; his assistant will pick him up later.”
"Then shall I take you back to Tangwan?"
Lin Chaoyue pursed her lips: "I haven't been staying in Tangwan recently either."
She was suffering from insomnia in Tangwan, so she had been sleeping in Tianhe City for the past few days.
But she left early and returned late every day, and never ran into Pei Shuwen.
So he misunderstood.
I assumed she had been spending time with Darren recently and had booked a private hotel room.
Pei Shuwen nodded and said nothing more.
Lin Chaoyue: "You...you're injured. Is it serious?"
Pei Shuwen: "It's all better now."
"oh."
The atmosphere became somewhat silent for a moment, with only the sound of running water coming from the bathroom.
"Let's go," Pei Shuwen said.
"etc."
Lin Chaoyue stood still.
It's good that I didn't see anyone.
Now that we've met...
There were some things she just couldn't hold back anymore.
Pei Shuwen: "What's wrong?"
Lin Chaoyue took a breath and looked at him seriously: "I have something to say. Do you have time?"
"Um."
The two walked to a secluded corner.
It was Lin Chaoyue who suggested we talk, and it's also Lin Chaoyue who's showing some timidity now.
"Well, how about we go back later and talk about it then?"
Pei Shuwen glanced at the time.
"I have a meeting later, so I'll probably be home quite late today."
Lin Chaoyue twirled her fingers behind her back, hesitated for a long time, and finally spoke.
Lin Chaoyue: "I promised to be your assistant for a year, but I may have to break my promise. My mother is not in good health, and I want to go home to help her."
"Yes, that's fine."
Pei Shuwen's initial agreement was merely a delaying tactic; he knew from the day Lin Chaoyue arrived that she might leave at any moment.
Pei Shuwen agreed too readily.
Lin Chaoyue was still a little confused.
When she got her money back last time, Pei Shuwen clearly didn't want her to leave.
But judging from Pei Shuwen's expression, he seemed genuinely unconcerned about the matter.
Lin Chaoyue breathed a sigh of relief.
Since he agreed to this so readily, he'll probably agree to whatever she asks for next.
"There's one more thing."
Lin Chaoyue took out a stack of documents from her bag, which she had been carrying with her for the past few days.
Lin Chaoyue: "I've calmed down recently and thought about it carefully. I hope that all of this can be discarded."
That stack of documents included a cohabitation agreement with Pei Shuwen, a special assistant employment contract, and other contracts related to Pei Shuwen and the law firm.
Pei Shuwen's gaze towards Lin Chaoyue deepened.
"Yes, it can be discarded."
Lin Chaoyue nodded in satisfaction.
It would be good if it could be invalidated.
Lin Chaoyue: "Then I have one last thing to do, which is about my things on the third floor... sigh... sob, sob..."
Pei Shuwen didn't give her a chance to speak again.
They pulled the person directly into a private room.
His breathing became completely heavy, and an intense possessiveness washed over him. Lin Chaoyue's hands were pinned down, and she could neither struggle nor speak.
Pei Shuwen used the tip of his tongue to pry open her teeth and patiently sucked and kissed her little by little, but even so, she could still feel her body trembling slightly.
He held absolute dominance, attempting to conquer and seize territory, while she lost all reason and could only helplessly endure it.
The time lasted a very long time, so long that her breathing became erratic, before he finally released her.
"We won't break up."
The man was panting.
"Hmm?" It took a long time for his almost completely drained rationality to return.
Pei Shuwen: "If you feel there are any problems between us, tell me and I will resolve them, but we will not break up."
Lin Chaoyue also took a couple of slow breaths and blinked: "I...I didn't say I wanted to break up."
"You're moving out."
Lin Chaoyue was taken aback by what she was said, and then she realized that she hadn't finished speaking.
Her hand slowly fell to her side, close to Pei Shuwen's hand which was also hanging down, and then their fingers intertwined.
Lin Chaoyue: "I mean, can I move all my things from the third floor to the fourth floor? Brother Shuwen, let's officially live together!"
"What?"
Lin Chaoyue's cheeks flushed slightly: "I've been thinking about it seriously lately, and I really shouldn't blame you. If I were more capable and worked harder, Mom wouldn't have bothered you."
Lin Chaoyue: "But if I go back home to work and live at home, we're both so busy, we'll definitely only see each other once in a long while."
"So let's officially move in together!"
“You’ve always taken care of me. Although I’m not very good at taking care of people, I can learn. You know I have a strong learning ability.”
Seeing that Pei Shuwen remained silent.
Lin Chaoyue was afraid he would refuse, so she actually started counting on her fingers: "I can help you apply medicine and treat your wounds. I can now fry steaks and I'm also learning to bake."
"The cookies I made are really delicious, I swear!"
Pei Shuwen looked at her intently, and after a long while, finally smiled with relief: "Mmm, it's delicious."
"You ate it? Was it sweet? I was afraid it would be too sweet, so I didn't put in too much sugar."
Pei Shuwen pulled the person over.
The kiss landed on her brow again, but this time it was just a light touch.
"Not as sweet as you."
