Chapter 17 Chapter 17 Mr. Pan likes you
The few patrons in the bar were drinking and chatting among themselves. The bartender was showing off his skills in front of the impressive wall of drinks, and some patrons were praising his graceful shaking movements, while they exchanged pleasantries. The waiters, with nothing to do, gathered in groups of three or four, checking their phones and joking.
Everyone here was immersed in his own little world, and no one noticed that there were two people who were so absorbed in their own thoughts in the narrow and silent corridor of the bar.
Wen Yu was tired of standing, and her right foot trembled uncontrollably. The balance of power was broken, and she leaned back involuntarily, collapsing against the cold corridor wall. With a thud, the back of her head struck it. It hurt! She frowned, unable to suppress a cry of surprise. But she couldn't make a sound. Pan Xianchen blocked her voice, and all she could hear was her broken sobs.
Despite being so obsessed and devoted, Pan Xianchen still pulled out one hand and placed it behind Wen Yu's head.
He realized that Wen Yu was just a facade, seemingly tall and long, but in reality, like a willow branch, soft and weak. Just a few minutes? She was still leaning against the wall, but she was still sliding down inch by inch, like her back was being oiled.
Pan Xianchen couldn't help but laugh at her: "Are you a loach?"
His hot hands pinched her waist and held her up again. But after a moment, she began to soften again, slippery like a pool of spring water. He turned them around, leaning against the wall, letting Wen Yu fall on him. It was no use; she slid down again. Then he lifted her high and made her hold his waist. It didn't work; Wen Yu's legs were completely powerless and dangled like noodles in his arms.
Pan Xianchen: “…”
All right.
Pan Xianchen couldn't help but laugh out loud and let her go for the time being.
Back on the ground, Wen Yu's knees nearly gave out as she fell to her knees. Pan Xianchen lifted her arm and placed it on his shoulder, teasing her, "Why are you so useless?"
“Who’s useless?”
"you."
Wen Yu narrowed her eyes, carefully examining Pan Xianchen's face. Pan Xianchen stared at her intently, his gaze moving from her smooth forehead and dazed eyes to her swollen lips. He couldn't help but peck her again and asked, "Are you awake?"
Wen Yu didn't reply.
"Do you know who I am?"
"Know."
"Do you know what we just did?"
"Know."
"Okay, I'm glad to know." Pan Xianchen was satisfied. He didn't want to take advantage of her. He wanted her to kiss him while she was sober.
"Still drinking?"
Wen Yu shook his head.
"Then I'll take you back?"
Wen Yu nodded.
Pan Xianchen smiled and pinched her cheeks. They were soft and chubby, and he loved them. "Why aren't you talking?"
She glanced over shyly: "What?"
Pan Xianchen wrapped his arm around her slender waist and pulled her towards his chest. "Tell me about your feelings? Or give me your opinion? Do you like this with me?"
Wen Yu turned away, not looking at his burning gaze and excited face.
He is so shameless.
"You won't tell me? Then it's my turn." Pan Xianchen smiled. "Your mouth is so soft and fragrant, so kissable. It's just that you don't have enough energy. I haven't even had enough, and you can't handle it anymore. I suggest you exercise, otherwise you'll run out of energy while I'm kissing you."
Wen Yu: “…”
"I really like this with you. I want to kiss you more." Pan Xianchen straightened Wen Yu's face so that it was away from him, looked into her eyes and said, "I still like you very much, Wen Yu."
“…”
"I like you, Wen Yu." He repeated.
Pan Xianchen walked Wen Yu back to the villa and looked up to see the square window lit up. He sat in the car and didn't leave immediately. He wasn't drunk, sleepy, or tired now. He had abundant energy and a throbbing mind.
He called Ning Kai.
Ning Kai picked up the phone: "What's wrong? I'm taking a shit."
Pan Xianchen pretended not to hear his vulgar words, his mind still immersed in the romantic scene just now.
"I have a girlfriend."
Ning Kai:?
He checked his phone. Pan Xianchen's name was displayed. Then he looked at the time. It was a little after ten o'clock, not too late. Was he already talking in his sleep?
"What did you say? I'm taking a shit and I can't hear you."
"..." Pan Xianchen wanted to push Ning Kai into the toilet and flush him down, "Wen Yu and I."
"How is that possible? She was ignoring you before, as if she wanted to get rid of you as soon as possible."
Pan Xianchen had had enough and threatened him: "I advise you to say something nice."
"...You Party members don't listen to the truth from the masses?" Ning Kai continued, "And based on my wife Hu Jingjing's years of experience reading romance novels, she says: love stories usually have a beginning, a middle, and an end. It's impossible for you to finish it in just a few chapters like you did smoothly."
Pan Xianchen sneered, "According to you, we have to be together for several years, on and off, like you and your wife did, before it's over?"
"Not all endings have to end with each other. There is also an ending called BE."
"Go away."
Pan Xianchen hung up the phone. A dog is a dog, and a dog can't spit out ivory.
Wen Yu returned to her room, reflecting on the day. Her mother was already in bed, but she was definitely mad at her. Just now, when she'd gone to her bedside to greet and apologize, she'd rolled over without a word, her butt facing her. Wen Yu was no longer in the villa; he'd sent a WeChat message twenty minutes earlier, telling Wen Yu he was leaving.
Then came what happened in the bar.
Wen Yu thought: She had indeed drunk too much, which made her actions tonight extremely impulsive and caused her future trajectory to deviate from normal.
She had just washed her face with cold water in the sink, and all the night's charm and confusion had subsided. She was racking her brain as she thought about the development of the incident. Pan Xianchen was serious. Of course, she wasn't someone who messed around. But how should she resolve and deal with this situation?
Wen Yu's head became more and more swollen, and she fell down and fell asleep on the bed.
She was late for work.
Seeing her hurriedly walk into the office, Peng Yan stood up and called her to the tea area.
"Go back in twenty minutes and pack some simple clothes and go on a errand with me."
Wen Yu looked at Peng Yan in surprise, then looked down at her feet. Peng Yan noticed this and said, understandingly, "Your foot isn't a big problem. You can walk without a cane now. It's getting better. Don't worry, you won't need to walk much on business trips, and I'll take care of you if anything happens."
Driving Peng Yan's car, two male colleagues took turns driving, sitting in the front seat. Wen Yu and Peng Yan sat in the back.
Soon, check in to the hotel.
Wen Yu had accompanied Peng Yan on more than one business trip, and she had completed her assignments with ease, which Peng Yan felt had given her. During the days when Wen Yu was lame, Peng Yan had been trying out one person after another, but none of them had the rapport she had with Wen Yu.
She had to take Wen Yu on a business trip.
That night, the two of them watched TV in their room. Tired from the day's work, they still had no appetite. Peng Yan thought about bringing her subordinates out to work, thinking she couldn't treat them unfairly. She listened to the TV, her eyes glued to her phone, searching for local delicacies. After a while, she and Wen Yu went out to get a bite to eat.
Wen Yu was also looking at her cell phone. Suddenly, she sat up from the bed, as if she was shocked.
Peng Yan looked at her suspiciously and asked, "What's wrong?"
Wen Yu said, "Sister Yan, I have something to do and need to go downstairs."
Peng Yan:?
What business do you have in going to the neighboring city where you are unfamiliar with the place?
Peng Yan also stood up and said, "Do you need me to accompany you?"
"Need not."
"Then I'll wait for you to come back and have dinner together?"
“…No need.”
Peng Yan became even more suspicious, but she still lay back on the bed and worriedly warned him, "It's late at night in a strange city, so be careful. Call me if you need anything."
"Okay, Sister Yan."
Wen Yu changed his clothes and went out with his cell phone.
She looked around to see if she saw anyone she knew, but when she saw none, she immediately got into the elevator and sneaked out of the hotel. Pan Xianchen said he parked his car near the hotel. Wen Yu looked around but couldn't find his black Maybach.
At this moment, a pair of hands suddenly reached out from behind her and hooked her into the arms of the person behind her. She was startled and wanted to scream, but the person leaned close to her ear and whispered in her ear: "Shh - don't scream, it's me."
Wen Yu turned around and punched Pan Xianchen. He smiled and took Wen Yu's limp fist in his palm.
"Why are you so sneaky?" Wen Yu accused.
Pan Xianchen said, "I'm imitating you. Wasn't that how you walked out just now? You looked like a guilty thief."
Wen Yu: “…”
Her face flushed: "How could I have that?"
Pan Xianchen led her to the car. Wen Yu was surprised to find that he had actually changed cars. No wonder she hadn't been able to find it before. Pan Xianchen opened the passenger door for her and personally helped her in. Then he circled around and got in.
To see her, Pan Xianchen drove the highway overnight in an SUV. Inside the spacious car, Pan Xianchen held Wen Yu's hand, their fingers intertwined.
Wen Yu pretended to be calm and asked him, "Have you found a hotel yet?"
He shook his head: "I'll be back in a while. I still have some unfinished business and need to work overtime."
Wen Yu was stunned: "Then why did you come?!"
He smiled, raised his hand, which was clasped with Wen Yu's, to his lips, kissed it, and said, "I miss you so much."
“…”
Wen Yu couldn't describe the feeling at that moment. It felt like someone was holding her heart in their hands, squeezing and pinching it fiercely. It felt sore, swollen, painful, and pleasurable. She looked at Pan Xianchen's smiling face and couldn't help but quickly peck him.
Too shallow. Too light.
not enough.
Pan Xianchen released her hand, pressed the back of her head, and then he put his arm around her waist, pressing her against the car door and kissing her. The car was clearly spacious, but why, why, why was it gradually getting warmer and cramped? This time, she was sitting with no way out. Pan Xianchen could only taste the taste of rust in his mouth before he let her breathe.
Wen Yu opened her watery eyes and said distressedly, "Can you not go back to work overtime? You're so tired."
Pan Xianchen sighed and lifted her up, moving her from the passenger seat to his lap. It was unnecessary to say anything now; he just wanted to kiss her, kiss her, and kiss her non-stop.
Where is the tiredness? He thinks it is worth it.
Wen Yu felt as if she were melting in a trance. She closed her eyes, but countless images appeared before her. Blurred, chaotic, and brilliant... Bees fluttered in the golden stamens, fish splashed in the clear pond water. Gradually, gradually, rain began to fall, bean-sized raindrops sinking into the mud, stirring it into a sticky mess.
She was almost suffocating.
Pan Xianchen let go and told her, "Breathe."
She took a breath obediently, and within two seconds, the man pressed on her again with an insatiable attitude.
Repeat this process.
Wen Yu continued to experience the feeling of being on the verge of death.
An unknown amount of time passed before Wen Yu was completely exhausted. She clung to Pan Xianchen's chest like a dead fish, only her mouth left gasping for air. Pan Xianchen grabbed her hand again, interlocking their fingers. Her palms were damp with sweat from both of them. She couldn't care less about the sweat. There was something hard and hot pressing against her leg, making her sit very uncomfortable. She couldn't care less about it either.
She felt she was no better off than Pan Xianchen. A downpour of that magnitude, that rotten mud, would only seep through layer after layer of restraints and wrappings, seeping deep into the earth. They were both in the same miserable state.
"Are you leaving?" Wen Yu asked weakly.
"Do you want me to leave?"
“…”
Wen Yu didn't know how to answer. She didn't want him to leave, but he wouldn't stay tonight. Wanting him to leave was simply a lie. Better to leave early, so she could get home and rest sooner.
She supported herself on his chest and stood up with difficulty, saying, "You leave now."
Pan Xianchen laughed, "What a cruel heart."
"Don't come so far to find me in the future."
"no."
"Then go back and don't work overtime, just go to bed."
"It's not done yet."
"Don't we still have time tomorrow? Let's do it tomorrow."
"There's a meeting tomorrow morning, and you must attend."
“…”
Wen Yu frowned and glared at him. He blocked her every word. Pan Xianchen laughed again, his chest heaving heavily, and her hands trembled with it.
He said, "You go up, I'm leaving."
Wen Yu cleaned herself up and got out of Pan Xianchen's Range Rover. Pan Xianchen looked behind her and nodded. Wen Yu turned around and saw Peng Yan standing there with a bag of food. She also nodded at Pan Xianchen as a greeting.
Wen Yu followed Peng Yan into the elevator, but in fact she didn't want to get into the elevator, but into any crack in the ground.
Peng Yan was more natural than her and said casually, "I've been waiting for you for almost an hour. I couldn't wait any longer, so I came down to buy some food."
Wen Yu sweatdropped. What? She and Pan Xianchen had been messing around downstairs for an entire hour? She'd clearly been planning to go downstairs and find a place to eat with Pan Xianchen.
Peng Yan seemed to be able to read her mind and asked considerately, "You probably haven't eaten yet, have you? I bought a lot, let's eat together."
Wen Yu: “…”
What should I do? I want to find a crack in the ground to crawl into.
When they got to the room, Peng Yan arranged the food and called Wen Yu over to eat. Wen Yu hesitated, so Peng Yan said, "Don't be embarrassed or try to hide it. I already knew it."
Wen Yu:?
Peng Yan smiled and said, "Look through my WeChat history. I told you a long time ago that Mr. Pan likes you."
