Chapter 25
"You're here, what can you do?"
Shen Yizhi stood up straight, tilted her head slightly and nodded at him, a thin layer of mist in her beautiful eyes, and her tone was as casual as usual.
Pei Yanhe stared into her eyes for two seconds, then lowered his gaze and noticed the glaring blood-red pinch marks on her neck.
My heart felt like it was being twisted hard.
He knew how fragile Shen Yizhi's skin was, and the slightest scratch would make it red for a long time, so she had been closely protected by both families since she was a child. Even the sharp corners of the house were covered with anti-collision strips by Uncle Shen, for fear that she would be bumped into.
This was the first time Pei Yanhe saw such clear scars on Shen Yiji's body. It was as if a rope was tied around her neck, and he also felt the pain.
"How did you deal with it?" Pei Yanhe asked Shang Kuoheng with a cold look in his eyes.
"If nothing unexpected happens after the interrogation, he'll be sentenced to a few years in prison."
Pei Yanhe's face was slightly serious, and he said concisely, "It's less."
Shang Kuoheng understood instantly, "Don't worry, I will handle the rest of the matter myself."
Even if Pei Yanhe didn't say it, Shang Kuoheng would deal with them personally. After all, he grew up with Shen Yizhi, and their friendship is there.
Pei Yanhe glanced at Chen Yizhi beside him, with a few strands of hair hanging in front of his eyebrows, and his voice unconsciously became a little softer.
"Will you leave?"
Shen Yizhi was too lazy to refuse him and simply followed him into the car.
But before getting in the car, he was still a little worried about Shu Xinyu, so he gave Shang Kuoheng a few instructions. His voice was already hoarse, and he almost couldn't speak in the second half.
Shu Xinyu said softly, "I'm fine. You go back first. I'll come find you tomorrow."
Only then did Shen Yizhi get into the car with peace of mind and sit in the passenger seat.
She lowered her eyelashes and began to scroll through her phone aimlessly. The bright light from the phone made her facial features look extremely delicate.
She had no intention of speaking, as if what happened tonight was as insignificant as a feather to her, and as if she was hiding some emotion.
The car fell into silence for a long time. Shen Yizhi felt a little sore at the back of his neck. He looked up from his phone and turned his neck.
I realized the car hadn't moved.
Just as he was about to ask, he turned his head and met those dark and deep eyes.
She frowned and asked, "Why don't you drive?"
His voice was still hoarse, and every word sounded like coarse sand.
It was a tone she had never had before.
After a long while, Pei Yanhe finally spoke: "Does it hurt?"
It took Shen Yizhi a long time to react after hearing this incoherent sentence. He touched his neck with a nonchalant expression, "It's just a little bit of wind and frost. It only looks painful."
After the sound ended, there seemed to be an undercurrent flowing silently in the air.
The light inside the car was dim, and the two people looked at each other as if there was a layer of film between them.
She couldn't see his heartache, but he could see through her disguise.
Pei Yanhe remained silent, turned on his cell phone and dialed a number. After the call was connected in two seconds, he spoke in his usual commanding tone.
"Come to Mingjing Bay now."
Then he hung up the phone.
Shen Yizhi was confused by his actions, but she inexplicably felt a bit of anger from him.
But she didn't know what he was angry about.
The burning pain in her neck, as if it was constantly being roasted on fire, prevented her from concentrating on thinking.
Wait until you reach Mingjing Bay.
As soon as Shen Yizhi got out of the car, he saw the Pei family's private doctor getting out of the car parked at the door, and he immediately understood who Pei Yanhe had called just now.
Why is Pei Yanhe suddenly so kind?
"Can we see a doctor?"
Pei Yanhe’s voice brought Shen Yizhi back to his thoughts.
His tone sounded as if he was afraid that she wouldn't even want to see a doctor.
"Oh." Shen Yizhi responded casually and walked straight to his house.
Pei Yanhe stared at her cool and decisive back, his jaw unconsciously tensed, and after two seconds, he raised his foot to follow.
The private doctor did a simple check and made sure that Shen Yizhi only had a wound on his neck, and he breathed a sigh of relief.
"The scar isn't serious. Just apply some swelling-reducing ointment and it will heal in two days."
The doctor handed Pei Yanhe an ointment from the medicine box and said in a natural tone, "Apply it to her after she takes a bath."
Pei Yanhe reached out and took it.
Shen Yizhi didn't realize the family-friendly scene, winked at the doctor, and clasped his hands together.
"Doctor He, please don't tell my grandfather, Grandpa Pei, my parents, or Uncle Pei about this. Please!"
If they knew, they would definitely worry about her again.
Doctor He first glanced at the young master who was looking down at the instructions on the medicine box. Seeing that he didn't say anything, he spoke, "Okay, I understand."
Hearing the change in her voice, he reminded her, "Try to talk less and drink more hot water these two days."
After explaining everything, Dr. He left with his medicine box, and they were the only two left in the villa again.
Shen Yizhi spread out his palm in front of Pei Yanhe, “Give me the medicine box, I can apply it myself.”
Pei Yanhe glanced at her slowly, listening to her slightly hoarse voice, and said without any emotion, "Type, I can't hear you clearly."
Although Shen Yizhi's voice was hoarse, his words and sentences were still clear. He might be mocking her again.
I can't figure out what he's thinking.
I had no choice but to lower my head, open the chat box with him on my phone and start typing.
[Give me the medicine box and I will apply it myself]
Then he handed the phone to him.
After reading it, Pei Yanhe said nonchalantly without a trace of curve on his lips: "What the doctor told me to do is not for you, why are you fighting with me?"
Shen Yizhi couldn't refute it. She was frightened by his serious tone and typed again.
【Are you sure you can apply it on me? 】
The night was a little quiet. Pei Yanhe pursed his lips and said lazily, "There's nothing I can't do."
This sentence covers a wide range. No matter in which aspect, there is indeed nothing Pei Yanhe cannot do.
Someone applied medicine to her for free, and Shen Yizhi was overjoyed. She pursed her lips and let him do whatever he wanted.
Pei Yanhe was idly turning the medicine box around, sitting lazily against the back of the sofa, "Go take a shower. When you're done, send me a message."
Shen Yizhi looked him up and down.
[You're not planning any bad tricks for me, are you?]
Pei Yanhe paused for a moment, almost laughing in anger, "Chen Yizhi, can you put away your detective mentality?"
[No way.]
Shen Yizhi hummed softly, put away his phone, turned around and walked back to his home.
Forty minutes later, after applying the hair oil, she leisurely sent a message to Pei Yanhe.
Today is the day: [I am fine]
Three minutes later, Shen Yizhi saw Pei Yanhe sitting on the sofa in her living room.
He knew the password to her house.
She also has his own special bowls and chopsticks at home, which she has kept since she was a child.
Shen Yizhi sat down beside him, with her long hair pulled back and falling to her waist. She faced him with an expression of fearlessness.
【bring it on】
Pei Yanhe squeezed some ointment onto a cotton swab and said, "Don't worry, it won't hurt."
Shen Yizhi is most afraid of pain.
She closed her eyes involuntarily, and her eyelashes trembled.
Suddenly, I felt a coolness on my neck, like a feather brushing against it. The burning pain gradually eased, and was replaced by a tickling itch.
Shen Yizhi uncontrollably retreated half an inch.
The next second, a hot breath fell on the side of the ear, so close that it made people subconsciously hold their breath.
Every word of his voice was clear to the ear.
"Don't hide, it's just applying medicine, be good."
