Chapter 23: The situation is so intense!
Even after everyone else had left, Shi Yang was still waiting for his ride.
She glanced at her phone; for some reason, the driver kept circling around her.
She had been waiting for fifteen minutes.
She rubbed her sore calves; she had been walking all day, and the resort was all uphill, so her legs were stiff from all the walking.
Her phone buzzed, and the driver canceled her order without any reason.
Shi Yang: "..."
She immediately filed a complaint and then called customer service to hurl her grievances.
The customer service representative had a gentle voice, listened patiently to her explanation, and gave her a coupon to get rid of her.
Feeling utterly overwhelmed, Shi Yang had no choice but to hail another taxi.
She didn't notice a car approaching from in front of her while she was looking down at her phone.
Until the car honked at her.
She then realized that the Maybach, which had long since driven away, had returned.
She leaned against the car window and asked, "Why are you back?"
Ji Peiheng said in a calm tone, "I left something behind."
"Huh? What did you forget?"
Ji Peiheng stared intently at her.
Shi Yangcai belatedly realized that the "thing" seemed to be herself, and awkwardly asked, "Where did you go just now? I thought you went home first."
Ji Peiheng scoffed, "You're so full you're going to go digest your food."
Shi Yang inexplicably felt guilty and stopped talking.
As soon as he got home, Shi Yang plopped down on the soft sofa and wouldn't get up.
She was exhausted today.
Aunt Cui placed the plate of sliced fruit on the coffee table and poured a glass of hot water: "Madam, you've had a long day. Go take a bath and get some rest."
Shi Yang nodded, forked a plump prune, and chewed it quickly: "I'll go in a bit."
Feeling uncomfortable sitting, she grabbed a cushion and lay down on the sofa.
After looking at my phone for a while, my vision gradually blurred, leaving only a hazy white light, and I couldn't even see a single word.
My eyelids twitched for a moment, then finally closed heavily.
Ji Peiheng came out of the bathroom and saw that she hadn't returned to the bedroom yet, so he went downstairs.
I saw this scene.
She seemed extremely tired; she didn't even change her clothes before lying down on the sofa and falling asleep.
It even made a slight snoring sound.
Her sleeping posture was hardly elegant; the cushion in her hands had somehow ended up on her lap, tucked between her legs. Her champagne-colored shirt was wrinkled and rolled up, revealing a glimpse of her slender, fair waist.
"Oh dear, you'll catch a cold sleeping like that." Aunt Cui came out of the kitchen, about to wake Shi Yang.
He was stopped by a single look from Ji Peiheng.
He walked closer to the sofa, stared at her peaceful sleeping face for a while, and then reached out and poked her fair and soft cheek with his finger.
Ji Peiheng raised an eyebrow; the touch felt quite nice.
Tender and smooth.
I couldn't resist poking it again.
Feeling disturbed in her sleep, Shi Yang impatiently waved her hand, turned over, and continued sleeping facing the sofa.
Ji Peiheng seemed to have discovered something amusing. He squatted down next to Shi Yang, a smile spreading across his lips, looking quite pleased.
Aunt Cui watched from the side, feeling a mix of emotions.
Having cared for her husband for over a decade, she had long since noticed that most of the time he seemed to be smiling, but it was merely a smile at the corners of his lips; his eyes were flat and emotionless. That smile was superficial, a perfunctory one.
Now, as he faces his sleeping wife, he smiles from the bottom of his heart.
It seems that the husband has been much happier since his wife came into the family.
In the past, even when it was time to leave work, her husband would either stay at the company to work overtime or have social engagements until very late. But now she can almost always see him come home on time every day.
Shi Yang was woken up by the disturbance, looking sleepy and clearly grumpy: "What are you doing? Don't disturb my sleep."
Ji Peiheng, the culprit, showed no remorse whatsoever: "I'm jealous of how soundly you're sleeping."
? ? ?
Shi Yang glared at him fiercely.
Is he sick?
Ji Peiheng ignored the displeasure in her eyes and smiled as he carried her upstairs.
The moment Shi Yang touched the bed, she was so sleepy that she turned over and went to sleep.
Someone held her shoulder, and a deep male voice reached her ears: "Do you want to take a shower? It's uncomfortable to sleep like this."
Shi Yang could barely keep his eyes open, and waved his hand.
After a while, she felt her face was wet and warm.
I opened my eyes a crack and saw a magnified version of a handsome face.
He woke her up with a kiss.
Before she could speak, her lips and tongue were captured in someone's mouth.
She heard his unsteady voice: "Now that you're awake, let's do something else."
...
early morning.
"Yangyang, I'm back."
"Um……"
"Didn't you hear me speak again, Shi Yang..."
The bed was in a mess, with some tangled hair outside the quilt. Beneath the hair was a fair, jade-like arm with many reddish marks on it.
He was also holding a cell phone that was in use.
There were faint voices on the other end of the phone. After a while, the call ended, and the phone screen went black.
...
Aunt Cui was pruning the flowers and plants in the courtyard when she heard someone ring the doorbell. She wiped her hands and went to open the door.
He saw a strange woman: "Who are you?"
Lu glanced at her gently and asked, "Is Shi Yang here?"
Aunt Cui: "Who are you?"
"I'm Shi Yang's best friend. I called her, and she seemed a bit disoriented, so I'm a little worried. Is she home right now?"
Aunt Cui: "Yes. Madam is sleeping."
Lu frowned slightly: "It's already afternoon, and she's still sleeping? What did she do yesterday?"
Aunt Cui blushed and changed the subject: "Please come in and sit down, I'll pour you some tea."
Lu changed her shoes and went upstairs by herself: "I'll go see her first."
Aunt Cui said somewhat awkwardly, "How about I go and call them?"
"No need, you go ahead with your work."
Lu gently pushed open the bedroom door. The curtains blocked out the sunlight, making it dim and gloomy.
There was an indescribable smell in the bedroom. Blankets and pillows were scattered on the floor, along with some clothes.
Her gaze fell on the messy bed, where the person was fast asleep, their exposed skin bearing numerous marks.
My gaze swept across the room and I noticed some things in the trash can that hadn't been cleaned up yet.
The deer chuckled softly, realizing it was still asleep.
Is the situation really that intense?
Shi Yang felt a direct gaze staring at her, and she opened her eyes.
I met a pair of familiar, round, smiling eyes.
She closed her eyes again; she must be dreaming.
I actually dreamed about Lu Qingqing.
Lu Qingqing didn't give her that chance, and yanked off her blanket: "Are you planning to sleep until tomorrow?"
Shi Yang felt a chill and snapped her eyes open: "Qingqing?"
Lu Qingqing stared wide-eyed at her entire body, noticing the dense marks covering her skin, and blinked: "What does it feel like?"
Realizing what she was looking at, Shi Yang instantly sat up in bed, hastily covering himself with the blanket: "Why are you here?"
