Chapter 182 Dream
But soon, the man's expression returned to normal.
His thin eyelids were half closed, and his deep black pupils were fixed on Yang Cici without any concealment. The emotion in his eyes was unclear, with an unignorable burning heat.
Yu Si noticed his gaze and then remembered to introduce: "This is my assistant, Yang Cici."
"Let her out."
The man's cold voice suddenly interrupted her.
The room was quiet for a moment.
Yang Cici stared at the ground in a daze.
She and Sister Yu Si were the only ones in the room, so Pei Yanchuan was speaking...to her.
——He kicked her out.
Realizing this, her eyelids twitched, she pinched her palm, pursed her lips, lowered her head and said nothing.
Yu Si didn't expect Pei Yanchuan to suddenly change his mind, and was speechless for a moment: "I was just asking about the situation today. Didn't you say before that it was okay..."
Pei Yanchuan lowered his eyes, "Not now."
Yu Si couldn't insist any longer, so he turned around and said softly, "Wait for me outside."
Yang Cici nodded slightly, lowered her head and turned to leave.
Pei Yanchuan didn't loosen his grip until he could no longer see the girl's back.
After a moment of silence, he pursed his lips and picked up the phone on the table.
Yu Si saw the girl turn and leave, and sighed helplessly.
Fortunately, I gave Yang Cici a shot of prevention beforehand.
Just as I was about to ask about the condition, the man's deep voice sounded first.
"How did she become your assistant?"
Yu Si:?
"She was studying here alone and had no money, so I asked her to be my assistant and I paid her a salary."
Pei Yanchuan put down his phone and looked up. "Where does she live? Is she still in school?"
Yu Si thought for a moment, "It should be school. I'm currently working part-time. Why are you asking this?"
Pei Yanchuan was dissatisfied with her answer and frowned, "She's your assistant, and you didn't even ask for the most basic information? What about food? Didn't you even have money for food before?"
Yu Si: “……?”
Do I choose the assistant or do you choose the assistant?
It was the first time that Yu Si saw Pei Yanchuan being so picky.
"I was planning to have her help me take care of your condition if I wasn't free. If you don't like the assistant's involvement, I won't let her come over next time."
Pei Yanchuan paused, "I didn't say I didn't like it."
“…”
Then why are you acting like you're checking someone's household registration? And you just kicked someone out.
Yu Si didn't expose the truth. After the man stopped asking about Yang Cici, she could finally start asking about her recent illness.
“Are you having any extreme thoughts lately?”
Pei Yanchuan lowered his eyes, rubbed his fingertips, and said in a light tone, "Not bad."
"So how are you feeling lately?"
"good."
"Are the hand tremors and heart palpitations still frequent?"
"fine."
Yu Si: “…”
Seeing that the man was distracted, she rubbed her brows and asked one last question.
"So...are you still dreaming about that person recently?"
As soon as he said this, Pei Yanchuan stopped moving abruptly.
The long eyelashes cast a shadow under the eyes, making it impossible to tell what emotion is in them.
After a moment, he said "hmm" softly.
"Every day."
—
Outside the door, Yang Cici let out a deep breath and loosened her grip.
She pinched two crescents on the palm of her hand.
She pursed her lips and touched her hand.
It was hard to describe her feelings. This was the first time she was treated like this by Pei Yanchuan.
The system comforted her: [Host, I've said before that Pei Yanchuan is different now. But it doesn't matter. When Li Xuanmeng was trying to capture Pei Yanchuan, she was also kicked out the first time, but Pei Yanchuan just told her to go home. You're much better than her.]
Yang Cici lowered her eyes slightly: [Is this considered comfort?]
[Of course, after all, you are the most promising host I have ever met. You must not lose heart!]
The cheerful voice of the system dissipated the originally gloomy mood. She put down her hand and stood at the door, leaning against the wall.
Butler Chen stepped forward and said, "Miss Yang, you don't have to wait here. I'll take you to sit for a while and have some fruit."
Yang Cici smiled and declined: "It's okay, I'll be here as long as the doctor comes out."
After all, it’s the first day at work. How can the boss work while the assistant enjoys the benefits?
Butler Chen seemed to be hesitant to speak.
After a long silence, he said softly, "Actually, this is what our young master wanted. He doesn't want you to stand here."
“………”
After being kicked out just now, Yang Cici was a little confused about what Pei Yanchuan meant.
Is it because I hate her too much, or am I good to her?
After a moment of silence, she smiled.
"OK."
When Yi Da Si came down from upstairs, Yang Ci Ci was sitting on the small sofa in a daze.
Hearing footsteps, she looked over.
The man walked in front. He was tall, with his hands in his pockets. He had a clean shoulder line, broad shoulders and a narrow waist, and a handsome face.
The dark eyes fell on her vaguely.
Yang Cici quickly lowered her head, stood up and stood beside the sofa.
Pei Yanchuan paused as he was about to move forward.
The girl with a submissive temperament lowered her eyes, her soft black hair fell in front of her chest, but there was no emotion on her fair and pretty face.
His eyes fell on the untouched fruit plate on the table and he pursed his lips.
Yu Si walked up to her and said, "Do you have anything to do tonight? We can have dinner here."
After she finished speaking, she raised her eyebrows and said, "The food their chef cooks is really delicious."
Even she rarely had the chance to taste it, mainly because Pei Yanchuan never ate and only prepared dinner occasionally.
Yang Cici shook her head slightly.
She whispered, "I won't eat here. I have something to do tonight. Can you send someone to take me back?"
On the sofa, Pei Yanchuan pretended to look at his phone with a slight pause in his gaze and raised his eyelids.
The girl never looked at him.
Pei Yanchuan's eyes darkened and his hand holding the phone tightened.
And since that day, the girl never came to the villa again.
After the psychological counseling was over, Yu Si was still packing up when he heard a man's hesitant voice in his ears.
"Why didn't your assistant come?"
She looked up in surprise and pushed her glasses. "Don't you dislike others? The assistant is quite obedient. She noticed it and took the initiative to say that she couldn't come here."
Pei Yanchuan's Adam's apple rolled, and he sat up from the recliner, his tone a little anxious, "I said, I don't dislike her."
Yu Si asked curiously, "So you want me to bring it? Last time I brought it, you made others stand outside."
The man was silent.
Yu Si glanced at him suspiciously, "Pei Yanchuan, do you know my assistant?"
Pei Yanchuan paused slightly, lowered his eyes, and said, "I don't know him."
Yu Si nodded, picked up his things and was about to go out when he suddenly heard a man's hoarse voice behind him.
"But the feeling she gives me is... a lot like the person in my dream."
Yu Si was stunned and turned around in disbelief, "Huh?"
How could that be?
"Can't you see that person's face clearly?"
Pei Yanchuan did not deny it.
He slowly raised his eyes, his dark pupils flashing with a strange light, and spoke in a light voice:
"So... I want to give it a try."
