Pei Ji, who had just finished taking a shower, had his half-wet long hair loose and was only wearing a bath towel. He was filled with fragrance and his makeup was gone, revealing the original beauty of his body. He looked extremely delicious.
He walked over, handed Xue Huan a dry towel, and asked her to wipe his hair.
Since it was her own hair, Xue Huan wiped it diligently.
I don’t know if it’s because of the body swap, but even though they’ve only known each other for a few days, the way they get along already has a natural and warm quality like an old married couple.
Xue Huan was thinking a little absent-mindedly.
Pei Ji suddenly said, "After we finish filming, let's go to Fayuan Temple and see the abbot."
"good."
The two of them still slept in the same bed at night because Xue Huan wanted to verify her guess.
Besides, she is the one playing the "male character" now, so she naturally won't do anything to her body, so there is no need to worry about anything embarrassing happening.
After lying in bed for a while, Pei Ji began to talk about his situation.
Xue Huan was the one who spoke before, and basically told her everything about herself. Pei Ji only briefly mentioned his tastes and taboos, and didn't say a word about his family members.
Now I don't know how to talk about it.
Since he was willing to talk, Xue Huan listened.
"My mother died shortly after I was born. The following year, my father remarried, and five months later, my stepmother gave birth to a boy. When I was five, I was nearly abducted due to the negligence of my nanny. My grandfather, who had already entered Buddhism, returned and took me to the temple to take care of me personally. When I was ten, my grandfather passed away, and I returned to the Pei family..."
Pei Ji spoke in a calm tone, and he glossed over the thrilling and complicated feuds among the wealthy families.
Xue Huan imagined that Pei Ji lost his mother shortly after he was born, and was almost abducted when he was just five years old. Later, he lived with his grandfather, but the good times didn't last long. Five years later, he lost this close family member again. She couldn't help but feel a little distressed.
It is said that if you have a stepmother, you will also have a stepfather. Although Pei Ji did not explain it in detail, she could imagine how Pei's father neglected him, the eldest son, after remarrying.
He was almost abducted, and it was said to be the nanny's negligence, but maybe it was because his stepmother couldn't tolerate him. If Pei's father showed enough attention to him, would his stepmother dare to do this?
After returning to the Pei family at the age of ten, he must have suffered a lot.
"...Later, I joined the Pei Corporation and became its president. Pei Ruisheng, my half-brother, was determined to take the Pei Corporation from me, even going so far as to hire someone to assassinate me. To completely eliminate him, I used a trick and came to the cruise ship, using myself as bait to lure him over. As I expected, he followed me, hoping to witness my demise."
Pei Ji paused, "I had anticipated his plan and was aware of every move he made, so the cruise ship explosion would never happen, but—"
"It's just that you didn't expect that you would swap bodies with me, right?" Xue Huan didn't look at him. When she talked about this, she couldn't help feeling a little resentful. There is nothing absolute in the world. He thought that everything was within his calculations, but in the end, such an incredible change as "body swap" still happened?
No matter how well he planned and strategized, he could not hide the fact that he was using his own life and the lives of the entire ship as bargaining chips.
As one of the people he plotted against, Xue Huan was very unhappy, although she was still alive and not killed in the explosion.
Pei Ji held her hand and said, "I'm sorry."
This was the first time he apologized to someone, because before this, he had never felt sorry for anyone. He had always been cold, even apathetic, whether towards people or things.
Even when talking about his grandfather who had taken care of him for five years, there was no ripple in his heart, no emotion at all, as if the grandfather was an unimportant person. He didn't know whether it was because he was born with a lack of emotions, or because... those memories did not belong to him.
He often felt that he was out of tune with this world. Everything around him and the memories in his mind seemed false. He did not belong here.
There has always been a sense of emptiness in my heart, as if I have lost something important.
However, after meeting her, the world seemed to suddenly change from black and white to color. Everything was different and became colorful and interesting. The empty space in my heart was also filled.
The thought of her brought him peace.
Xue Huan intellectually felt that she couldn't forgive him so easily, but emotionally, she wanted to immediately hold him in her arms, stroke his head, and give him the utmost tenderness.
This man is so poisonous that she has lost her mind.
"Whether I'll forgive you depends on your performance. Honestly, because of what happened on the cruise ship, your base score with me has become -100. I won't forgive you until your score reaches 60 or above."
Pei Ji: "Okay."
He must work hard to get his score in her heart to 100.
After this conversation, the relationship between the two became a little more familiar, and they fell asleep peacefully.
As Xue Huan had guessed, the next morning, the two of them switched back.
This time, Xue Huan woke up first and found herself lying in Pei Ji's arms in an intimate posture. Her body stiffened and she looked up cautiously, and a handsome profile came into her sight.
This man is so handsome, especially when he is sleeping quietly, he looks lazy and sexy, making people want to ravage him.
Xue Huan moved closer and kissed him on the face.
The moment he touched her, her heart beat like a drum and her toes curled up with shame. After the kiss, she quickly pulled back and prepared to run away. However, just as she sat up, she felt a force on her waist, pushing her back down again.
She lay back in Pei Ji's arms.
Their eyes met.
The bodies are pressed together, the breaths blend together, and the ambiguous factors ferment silently.
The red on Xue Huan's face spread all the way to her ears. She felt like her whole body was on fire. She greeted him dryly, "Good morning, good morning."
"Good morning." Pei Ji turned over and pressed her under him, supporting his body with his arms. He just stuck to her without giving her his body weight.
"What was Miss Xue doing just now?" He slowly lowered his head until his lips were only a finger away from hers.
Was she hit on the bed?
Xue Huan's heart was beating so fast that it seemed like it was about to jump out. She put her hands on his chest, wanting to stay away from him, but his arms were like iron hoops, trapping her between the bed and his chest. How far away could she go?
"I, I didn't do anything, please let me go." He just refused to admit it.
At this moment, Xue Huan just wanted to escape, escape from the range of his hormone release, otherwise she felt she would suffocate.
